Fortunately, Li Youran is agile, quick in movements and good in physical strength.
After harvesting all the fruits from the three fruit trees, it was still early.
Continue to grow new fruits and vegetables.
Plant fruit first.
This time it is common but very delicious and very popular fruit.

This is a very popular fruit that many people like to eat.
Herbs of many years are generally 10 to 40 cm tall.
Strawberries are not only delicious but also very nutritious.
It contains a lot of vitamins, citric acid, and nutrients such as carotene, calcium, phosphorus, and iron.
It has the reputation of "Fruit Queen".
In addition, strawberries can also relieve the symptoms of night blindness and have the effects of improving eyesight and nourishing the liver, promoting growth and development, aiding digestion, and improving constipation. It can be said to be a health care fruit.
Eating more is good for your health.
The price is generally relatively expensive, which is not very friendly.
Li Youran was reluctant to buy it for food before.
But now, he can grow strawberries by himself.
Moreover, it is the most delicious strawberry in the world.
Finally, what is more interesting is that when we eat strawberries, we mainly eat not fruits, but flower support.
Because the strawberries' sensual red flesh is actually not a fruit, but a swelling flower holder.
All the red parts are trunks.
The white dots on the stents are the real fruits.
Strawberries look like berries, but they are actually a kind of polymeric lean fruit.

Next, continue to grow two kinds of vegetables.
The first type of vegetable is to grow celery.
Never planted before.
Celery can be used as both a staple and supplementary ingredient.
It is a very high-usage vegetable.
At the same time, it is very nutritious and contains a large amount of protein, carbohydrates, carotene and other substances.

Next, you have to grow another vegetable, so you can grow peas.
I haven't planted peas in a long time.
After buying another pea seed and planting it, Li Youran saw that it was not too late.
He decided to go to the village.
Go and send some Saga fruit and egg yolk fruit for the children to eat.
Both kinds of fruits are rare and the children must have never seen them.
Of course I haven't eaten it.
Take some of these two fruits for the children to taste.
I found two plastic pockets, and each of the two fruits was filled with about thirty.
Set off.
As soon as I came out of Baiyun Mountain, I saw the children from afar.
What are you looking for in a paddy field?
Catch lobsters?
Li Youran walked over.
After getting closer, the children all saw Li Youran.
All were very excited for a moment.
"Brother Youran, you are back!"
The children all know that Li Youran went to Tiandu City.
Li Youran nodded and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Dongzi said: "The water chestnuts here are ripe and ready to eat. Let's dig the water chestnuts. They have already dug much better. Brother Youran, do you want to eat them?"
Water chestnut?
Li Youran's eyes lit up. It turned out that water chestnuts could be eaten.
Water chestnuts, also known as horse hoofs, water chestnuts, peony, duck roe, black taro, bodhicitta, etc.
It is a very special vegetable.
However, in the eyes of children, water chestnuts are more like wild fruits growing in water.
The water chestnuts in this field are wild, not planted.
Water chestnuts usually grow in shallow water fields, with most plant stalks, clustered, straight, slender, and cylindrical.
The height is generally between half a meter and one meter. The diameter is 2-3 mm, gray-green, smooth and hairless.
The stems in the mud will swell into bulbs.
The bulb part is the eating area of water chestnuts.
Therefore, when children look for water chestnuts, they first find the plant stem of the water chestnut, and then dig out the bulbs along the stem in the mud.
The bulbs are not deep and are easier to dig, and often they can be digged out with bare hands.
The bulb part after excavation is flat and spherical, with a diameter of 3 to 4 cm, and the epidermis is dark and brown.
Use a knife to peel off the skin, and the flesh inside is white.
It can be eaten raw directly, crispy and sweet.
The taste is very good, very delicious.
In addition to eating raw, you can also eat cooked food, cook, and make canned food.
In addition, starch can also be extracted.
