Chapter 4 Space Planting
The fish and shrimps in the stream were not big, but they were very delicate. Ye Lin grabbed a few times without any of them. This was not a space. If it was in the space, Ye Lin waved his hand and the fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs would automatically run into his hands.
The reason why Ye Lin came to catch fish and shrimp was that he wanted to try whether the pool behind the space thatched hut could raise these things. If it could be raised, of course it would be fine. Even if it could not be raised, it would be fine, because he could still grow food.
"Ouch."
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" When Ye Lin shouted, Ye Qi came over nervously and asked.
"It's nothing, something bites my foot." Ye Lin said, reaching out to touch it under his feet.
"No...is it okay?"
"fine."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lin took out something from under his feet, which was red. Seeing this thing, Ye Lin's expression on his face was very wonderful, confused, and excited, and at the same time he thought to himself: Why is this thing here?
"Brother, what is this? It's so ugly."
"Sister, this is a crayfish."
"Crayfish?" Ye Qi looked confused and had no choice, because she had never seen a crayfish. Not to mention seeing it, she even heard that it was the first time today.
"Yes, crayfish." Ye Lin nodded, then said with a "Oh": "Run away." Ye Lin put his hand holding the crayfish into the water and said.
How could he run away when he got it in his hand? Ye Lin did it on purpose, because only in this way could he put the crayfish into the pool in the space, which was the first creature he put into the space.
When Ye Lin took out his hand from the water, the crayfish in his hand was indeed gone. Seeing this, Ye Qi comforted him and said, "My brother, it doesn't matter. If you like it, catch it again."
"Yeah." Ye Lin nodded and started to touch the water again.
Ye Lin still knows the habits of crayfish. Of course, but I saw it in books in my previous life that crayfish liked to drill holes, especially under the stones. Ye Lin began to move stones in the stream.
Not to mention, in ten minutes, he actually asked him to catch seven or eight crayfish. After catching these seven or eight crayfish, Ye Lin stopped catching them and went to catch small fish and shrimps. When catching crayfish, Ye Lin did not forget to catch some stream snails, which are field snails. In addition, when moving stones, he also caught a few crabs.
It is difficult to catch small fish and shrimps, but they can't hold Ye Lin's persistence. After half an hour, Ye Lin still caught some. Not only that, he also caught a few loaches, and even two eels were caught. They were just small eels, not as thick as Ye Lin's little fingers.
Originally, Ye Lin wanted to catch one or two turtles, even the little turtle was fine, but until noon, my grandmother came over to call them for dinner, and Ye Lin didn't see the turtle's shadow, so he could only follow her grandmother back helplessly.
"Linlin, did you catch the fish?" After returning home, my grandfather asked.
"No." Ye Lin shook his head and said, "The fish is too slippery and can't catch it at all."
"It's right that you can't catch it. There are no big fish in the stream. Those small fish are not easy to catch without tools."
"Yeah!" Ye Lin nodded in agreement, and then said, "Grandpa, do you know where there are turtles? The little turtle is OK."
"What are you asking about this?"
"I want to keep it fun."
"That's it! OK, let it go to grandpa. Grandpa will find you a few in the afternoon."
My grandfather has lived here for almost thirty years and is very familiar with it. He knows everything that Ye Lin doesn’t know. In the mountains and by the stream, there are still few little turtles.
Not many people will eat turtles because turtles have no meat and have time to catch turtles, so it is better to catch a few fish. In this era, eating enough is more important than nutrition.
Of course, this does not include Ye Lin's grandfather. As a scholarly family, he knows the nutritional value of turtles, especially this kind of wild turtle, so when you have nothing to do, turtles will catch turtles.
"Yeah, thank you grandpa."
"Let's have a meal."
"good."
The lunch was very rich, even in later generations, and all I had was white flour steamed buns. My grandmother even killed a chicken to stew it. Of course, Ye Lin also knew that it was not so rich at noon today and at night.
"Grandma, did you kill the chicken?" Ye Qi asked when she saw the stewed chicken.
"Well, it's an old hen, and I don't lay much eggs anymore."
"oh."
There are seven or eight hens in my grandmother's house and two roosters. It seems that my grandmother is right. This old hen should be too old and doesn't lay eggs much. Otherwise, it would be impossible to kill a rooster.
You know, a hen lays a lot of eggs a year because my grandmother lives in the mountains, and the chickens eat grass and insects, so there is no cost at all. If it weren't for not laying eggs much, my grandmother would definitely not be willing to kill them.
"Come on, eat more." Grandma helped Ye Lin pick up a big chicken leg.
"Thank you grandma."
"Qiqi also eats it." Grandma grabbed another chicken leg to Ye Qi.
"Thank you grandma."
“Eat.”
In addition to this stewed chicken, there is also a scrambled egg with tomatoes, two green vegetables and a seaweed soup, which is not available in the city, but here, except for the stewed chicken, the remaining dishes can be eaten every day.
Because these dishes were grown by my grandparents themselves, it’s a pity that this place is too far from the city, otherwise Ye Lin’s family could eat them every day. Of course, it’s not impossible to deliver them, but if you send them a trip, the travel fee is more expensive than buying vegetables.
After dinner, my grandfather went out. Ye Lin knew that he probably had to find a little turtle for him.
Ye Lin didn't go out because his grandmother was stir-frying peanuts and melon seeds for him and Ye Qi. Of course, Ye Lin didn't do this for this, but when his grandmother was stir-frying these things, he secretly put some in his pocket and pretended it was raw.
Ye Lin didn't go out all afternoon. While eating peanuts and melon seeds fried by his grandmother, Ye Lin made some of his grandmother's storage room, including grain seeds and vegetable seeds.
He didn't need much, and grandma left a lot of seeds, so there was no problem with him taking a little.
At around 5 o'clock in the afternoon, my grandfather came back from outside and was carrying a foreign porcelain basin. There were five little turtles in the foreign porcelain basin. Ye Lin was so excited to see these little turtles.
"Wow, grandpa, you really caught the turtle."
"Yes, what's the difficulty? I happened to run into a nest and caught them all. Let's give it to you." Grandpa handed Ye Lin the foreign porcelain basin.
"Thank you grandpa."
"Okay, go and have fun."
"Um."
After my grandfather handed the foreign porcelain basin to Ye Lin, he went to wash his hands. Ye Lin carried the foreign porcelain basin and ran aside. It was not in the water now, and my grandparents were there, so Ye Lin could not put these five little turtles in the space.
In this case, you can only wait for the evening, and it will not be at this moment anyway.
It was dark early in the mountains, and there was no electricity in the mountains, so I rested as soon as it was dark. My grandfather's house was relatively large, and Ye Lin had a separate room. In the middle of the night, Ye Lin disappeared on the bed.
After entering the space, Ye Lin did not rush to grow food first, but went to the pool first. This is the most important thing at the moment. When he arrived by the pool, Ye Lin's eyes lit up.
It seems that this pool can really raise fish. The fish that were put in the morning are now alive. Not only that, they are also much bigger. It is also true. Although it is only a little more than half a month, more than half a month has passed in the space.
But Ye Lin thought about it and it was wrong. Even after more than half a month, these fish should not grow so big. It seems that this space not only flows faster, but also is more suitable for raising fish.
After putting the five little turtles in, Ye Lin left the pool. The fish he caught in the stream were quite diverse. It can be said that there were all kinds of fish. It is still too small to tell which fish they are all.
Since that's the case, why are he still here? He should hurry up and plant the wheat in the field. In this way, he can harvest it in five days, and the seeds will be available. You must know that Ye Lin did not get so much wheat, but just grabbed a few handfuls.
When he came to the ten pieces of land in front of the thatched hut, Ye Lin waved his hand and flipped over the piece of land. In the space, Ye Lin was a god, and with one thought, he could accomplish what he wanted to accomplish.
It means that I am the one who decides my territory, and that if he can't even do this, he won't start using space at this time. Even if a ten-year-old child grows the grain, will he have the ability to harvest it?
Besides, if the space is the same as outside, then what else should I do? In this era, you can find a place similar to that in the space by just going to the mountains.
After the land was turned over, Ye Lin had an idea and evenly spread the wheat he brought in on the ground and covered it again. Then Ye Lin turned over another land, which was made of vegetables, and Ye Lin found several kinds of rapeseed from his grandmother's house.
Ye Lin did not grow one vegetable in one piece of land, but all the vegetables were planted on one piece of land, one vegetable was planted in a row, first of which was tomatoes, then peppers, followed by green onions, cucumbers, spinach, rapeseed, eggplant, beans, leeks, zucchini and garlic sprouts.
Just as he planted this part of the land, after planting all these, Ye Lin came to another piece of land, planted peanuts and sunflowers in this piece of land, planted half of the land, and sprinkled a few slices of ginger skin on the side.
The thing about ginger is just ginger skin. This is also a kind of seasoning. How could Ye Lin not plant some?
After all these were planted, the seeds that Ye Lin brought in were gone, and then he left the space. Then he waited, waited for the wheat to mature and waited for the vegetables to grow.
"Grandpa, grandpa, my little turtle is gone." Early the next morning, Ye Lin ran out of the house.
"The little turtle is gone! How come it is gone?"
