Gu Fei nodded. "They can. You can plant the dry ones directly, or you can plant them after soaking them in water. Either way works."
'She remembered the neighborhood ladies planting chili peppers. They'd just grab a handful of seeds and scatter them in the dirt. She had squatted beside them to watch, full of curiosity, asking all sorts of questions. They were the ones who'd told her all this.'
Gu Zhang nodded. "That's good."
After peeling for a bit, Gu Fei took out various seasonings from her storage space to have them ready for later.
Just then, Lian'er's voice came from outside. "Miss Xiao Fei, Liu Zhuangtou says Young Master Zhu has sent someone to ask if we can leave now."
Gu Fei called out, "Coming!"
As she spoke, she quickly put the deseeded chili peppers into a bag.
Gu Zhang stood up as well. "I'll go with you."
"Gu Qing, you should go too."
Mrs. Chen nodded. "Alright. You all go. The rest of us will keep peeling."
