Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Isn’t that so?” The old woman sighed. “In these villages, we can only grow some wheat at most, but the harvest is not high. However, sweet potatoes, which have low requirements for the land, can be planted in large areas.”

“Eating sweet potatoes alone is also uncomfortable. However, I can at least mix it with some noodles. I can still survive. From time to time, I can pick up some medicinal herbs on the mountain.”

“Young people with ability will go to the county to find work.”

Ye Muyu was not surprised at all. She asked after some thought, “Ma’am, have you made the sweet potatoes into noodles before?”

Since they could only eat sweet potatoes, it was good to change the way he ate them to improve his taste.

“Can sweet potatoes be made into noodles?” The old woman had never heard of this saying before. “We usually dug a cellar and put the sweet potatoes in it. They can be preserved for a whole winter.”

“Ma’am, not only is it easy to preserve sweet potatoes, but it’s also a new way to eat them,” Ye Muyu said.

The old woman was a little surprised. “Then how should we do it?”

“You just need to peel the sweet potato and cut it into small pieces, then grind it into pulp…” Ye Muyu told the old lady the method of making sweet potato noodles.

The old lady did not say anything wrong after hearing Ye Muyu’s words. She had done farm work before and would usually use the mill to make other things. Now that she heard Ye Muyu’s words, she felt that it made sense.

“Miss, how did you come up with this idea?” The old woman asked in surprise.

Ye Muyu said, “I used to be from the county town under Nanyuan Prefecture. They already have this kind of sweet potato noodles there. It’s not something strange. If you don’t mind the trouble, you can try it when you have time.”

“There are a few good ways to eat sweet potato noodles. You can stir-fry it. You can also make sweet potato flour. If you’re hungry, you can cook it directly. There’s also sweet potato jelly.”

Ye Muyu told the old lady how to cook the dishes to repay her kindness.

Of course, it would be a good thing if it could spread.

The old woman was more and more surprised. “I think the sweet potato noodles you mentioned are a very good food. It can fill your stomach in the morning or at night. It’s just like normal noodles.”

“Ma’am, you’re right. Eating sweet potato noodles is like normal noodles. You won’t feel sick of it. It’s much better than eating sweet potatoes directly.” Ye Muyu felt that sweet potato noodles might affect people’s lives.

The two of them talked about the cooking method for a while.

Ye Muyu turned around and saw a familiar object in the corner.

“Ma’am, what is this?” Ye Muyu walked to a corner and wiped the potato clean.

Was this a potato?

Ye Muyu’s eyes lit up.

“Oh,” the old woman said when she saw the fruit in her hand. “This is a potato. Actually, it was an accident that it was dug out.”

“In the past, the old man and I would go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and cut some wild vegetables to feed the chickens and ducks. We didn’t know how to dig the roots.”

“It’s also because the old man couldn’t carry the hoe properly. He happened to dig up the potato vine and pull out the fruit. Later, we took it to the county to ask. It was the Young General’s people who told us that this was a potato. It was something foreign. We were told that it could be eaten. The two of us went to the mountains to find some. We usually cook it and eat it. It tastes pretty good.” freewebnσvel.cѳm

“If you’re interested, you can take it,” The old woman said with a smile.

Ye Muyu hesitated for a moment before accepting it. “Ma’am, to be honest, I want to take it back and try to grow it. If I can grow it, the people will have one more dish to eat in the future.”
