It turned out that Silly Zhu had carried the entire iron box and was striding up the mountain on his shoulder. Dong Rong was stunned, hurriedly went up to help hold the bottom of the box, and said worriedly, "Pillar, can you carry it yourself?" Don't fall. The pillar muffled, but it walked faster and faster.

Most of the people who come to worship the Buddha today are young women and women who rarely have the opportunity to go out on weekdays to breathe. So I looked at the stone steps from afar, the flowers were red and willow green, and the warblers and swallows were constantly singing.

And there are many women, so naturally it is indispensable to have young sons who want to get a glimpse of the beautiful faces of various families by worshipping the Buddha. These people are usually pampered, and when they suddenly suffer like this, their speed is naturally not much faster than that of a snail.

The stupid pillar is strong and strong, and Dong Rong has the support of the dream of making a fortune, so naturally he quickly surpassed everyone and climbed to the resting platform between the fifth and sixth floors.

Dong Rong chose the flattest place on the outside to set up the box, and then took a yellow, orange and orange copper chisel to chisel the ice cubes into brick-sized pieces, and then arranged the honey jar, sesame jar and two stacks of clean porcelain bowls and wooden spoons.

Silly Zhu ran to the spring water that flowed down the mountain not far away, washed his face happily, and brought back a bucket of water for washing the dishes.

As soon as the two of them were ready, a few sons and brothers climbed up first, and the original neat clothes and hats had long been crooked, if they didn't have to care about face, they hated to stick out their tongues as long as dogs, and they just hoped to dissipate heat.

One of the sons couldn't bear to be tired, and while reaching out to loosen his neckline, he turned his head to look at the sun above his head and scolded, "It's only been a few days in April, why is this day so poisonous, it's really dog days, and you can't dry people." ”

A "difficult brother" who was squatting next to him and panting was just about to answer, not wanting to suddenly feel a cool breeze blowing on his face. He looked around in amazement, and then he saw a young daughter-in-law standing a few steps away, who was now holding a fan in her hand and slamming it into the box in front of him. And I don't know what was in the box, but it was faintly bubbling white steam in the sunlight.

The boy couldn't help but be curious and asked loudly, "Alas, this little sister-in-law, what is in your box, why is it so cool?" ”

Dong Rong was very proud when she saw that her little tricks worked, and replied with a smile, "This son is really good eyesight, the little woman's box is filled with clean and translucent ice cubes." If you are thirsty, you might as well come over and eat a bowl of crushed ice flowers, with good honey and sesame seeds, which is cool and sweet. A bowl only sells for six cents, and there is really nothing more thirst-quenching and fever-quenching than this. ”

The boy already felt that his throat was itchy and dry, so he couldn't hold back when he heard this, and walked forward a few steps and shouted, "There is actually an ice bowl to eat?" Hurry up and give Ben Gongzi a bowl, if you really relieve the heat, your reward is indispensable. ”

"Hey, okay, Childe, wait a minute." Dong Rong responded crisply, raised her hand and raised the wooden hammer wrapped in white muslin, smashed half of the ice bricks with a few clanging clicks, and collected a bowl full of ice chips. Then he scooped up the honey and sprinkled it with sesame seeds, and at the end he put a new wooden spoon with a yellow, orange and orange and handed it to the boy with both hands.

The companions of the boy also gathered around at this time, seeing that the ice cubes in the box were crystal clear, faintly revealing a trace of coldness, and the ice flowers in the ice bowl were finely chopped, the honey was orange, and the sesame seeds were burnt, and they all swallowed their saliva, and before their companions could open their mouths to taste, they shouted for a bowl too.

Dong Rong's subordinates were busy, and soon everyone was holding the ice bowl and munching, and from time to time someone shivered with cold, but the mouth kept praising it, "It's really cool and sweet, it's so thirst-quenching." ”

The little maids who followed behind a few sons and brothers also smiled when they heard this, asking the master, wanting to taste something fresh out of their own pockets. These sons and sons are usually very good-looking people, and no one wants to leave a stingy name in front of their friends because of a few pennies, so Dong Rong sold more than a dozen bowls in a blink of an eye.

Soon, the second wave of pilgrims had gradually caught up, and several young men had rested for a long time, and ate heartily, and immediately felt that the strength under their feet had increased greatly, and they threw down a handful of copper coins or small pieces of broken silver and shouted at the followers to continue to struggle upward.

Dong Rong tossed the silver money in the cloth bag, and the corners of her mouth were so happy that she was grinning to the root of her ears. She brushed the bowl and spoon and began to shout loudly, "What a sweet and cool ice bowl!" Ladies and ladies rest their feet and eat an ice bowl to relieve heat and heat! ”

The people who were trying to climb were already tired and tired, and most of them stopped to rest for a while when they heard this. The old wives brought by the big families were busy setting up stools and oil umbrellas for the master, while the little maids ran to Dong Rong to take a look, and when they went back to tell the master, they came forward to buy a few bowls. Of course, the pottery bowls used by those sons and brothers, the delicate ladies will not continue to use them, and the maids are all holding the tea bowls and porcelain cups brought by the family.

Dong Rong was even happier when she consciously saved the effort to wash the dishes, and added more honey to the ice bowl, but she didn't expect to get two unexpected rewards.

In this way, before the sun could climb into the middle of the sky, the ice in the iron box was sold out. Dong Rongmei picked up the bowls and spoons, wooden barrels, jars and other things, and instructed the pillar to take a good look at the stall, and then climbed to the top of the mountain alone to ask for a peace charm for Second Sister Cao.

Second Sister Cao has a gentle temperament and poor health, so she rarely shows up on weekdays. Dong Rong married into the Cao family for a few days, and only saw this little girl on the wedding night. Twelve or thirteen years old was originally the age of the flower who likes to laugh, but this child can only lie in bed, doing needlework every day to pass the time, Dong Rong is also pity every time she thinks about it. Therefore, today is not to please Mrs. Cao, she also plans to sincerely ask the Buddha.
