Chapter 150: Hot Summer

Looking at the white crystal in the corner of the wall, Xia Mei's brows furrowed slightly, touching her chin and thinking carefully.

"Hmm...... What the hell is this...... It always feels familiar......"

muttered in his mouth, his eyes were not focused because of thinking, his brows were furrowed more and more, and just when a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Wu Song's voice came with a faint doubt.

"Lady, what are you doing here?"

Xia Mei: "......"

The feeling that disappeared in an instant, I couldn't think of it anymore, I had no choice but to give up, and if I thought about it, I would always remember it.

So Xia Mei turned around, smiled with relief, and said softly: "It's nothing, let's go, husband, go back to make dinner."

Back in the house, Wu Song carefully cleaned the silver of the furs sold today and put them into the big box of Xia Mei's dowry.

Since that conflict, after becoming a parent, Wu Song handed over the bottom to Xia Mei, and all the silver that used to dart was replaced by a silver ticket, and when he put the thick pile of silver tickets in front of Xia Mei, Xia Mei was surprised for a moment, and instantly felt a little blushing.

It turned out that he was really, and he fished for a "golden beetle......

Wu Song slowly explained how much silver he had over the years, because he was alone, he didn't have any big expenses, and Tong Wanli had never treated him badly, so the surplus money gradually became more.

"So, the lady doesn't have to worry, her husband can support you and Tang Bao."

Xia Mei was very moved, so she could only call "husband" with a red face, and then exchanged the moving for compensation, and it was another night of tenderness and sweetness.

Looking at the money bag that was getting more and more bulging, Wu Song hooked the corners of his lips happily.

I didn't feel anything about money before, but now I want to give my wife and Tang Bao a better life, so I have a money-making **.

In fact, compared with hunting, farming is more tiring, Wu Song was really uncomfortable at first, although he never complained, but he was always tired between his eyebrows.

Later, I slowly figured out that hunting is not a long-term solution, and it is more practical to grow some crops. Watching the crops he planted with his own hands ripen, harvested, and turned into delicious food under the hands of his mother, he felt the process. Very happy.

Therefore, I am willing to be with the fields all day long, grow some of the food that my wife loves to eat, raise some chickens and ducks, and return at sunrise.

The days are calm and abundant.

Summer is for men. After all, it is still much more convenient than a woman, for example, at this moment, Wu Song is shirtless and chopping wood under the loofah rack in the yard.

The beads of sweat slid down the honey-colored muscles with great explosive power, and the visual effect was the same as the male star in the advertisement in the previous life.

Xia Mei complained while feasting her eyes, this person can take off his clothes and sweat to his heart's content, but he is full of stuffiness.

Thinking of the watermelon that grows in the ground, I think that if it is chilled, it must be super refreshing......

"Alas......"

Sighing helplessly, Xia Mei sat lazily under the eaves, fanning it with a pu fan.

Maybe it's the thirst for ice that's too strong. Maybe Wu Song's sweat beads were too dazzling, Xia Mei naturally remembered the method of making ice like this.

Just such a sudden thought, without warning at all, and I don't know whether it is correct or not, a large paragraph of very professional terminology explanations came to mind.

Xia Mei slowly sat up straight, and the movement of fanning her hand stopped.

Wu Song chopped down with an axe, and a piece of firewood was neatly divided into two halves, straightening his waist. Scooped up the sweat towel around his neck and wiped the sweat that was trying to fascinate his eyes.

Habitually turning his head to look at the figure sitting outside the room, he found that she was looking at herself in a daze, looking surprised and confused.

It feels like seeing something and being surprised. It's an incredible thing.

Wu Song's eyes flashed with surprise, put down the axe, and walked over with his feet.

When he walked up to him and was about to reach out and ask the lady what happened, Xia Mei stood up violently and startled him!

"Oops! No matter. Try it first! ”

With a loud shout in her mouth, Xia Mei turned around and ran to the backyard, leaving Wu Song confused.

My own lady, isn't it, I'm stunned?!

Wu Song, who was a little worried, wanted to follow, but Tang Bao, who came home an hour late, came back, sweating profusely, the hair on his head was wet and lying on his forehead, and there were fine beads of sweat on his cute little nose.

"Daddy! I am back! What about mothers? ”

Wu Song: "......" It seems that the first thing all children do when they come back is to find their mothers, isn't their father good to him?!

Depressed for a moment, Wu Song thought that now was not the time to dwell on these, so he said, "Your mother is behind, come here." ”

Tang Bao was stunned for a moment, and immediately followed Wu Song to the back.

Before he could go to the back, he watched Xia Mei walk into the cellar in a hurry, and walked out again in an instant and walked towards them.

Tang Bao raised a smile and was about to be intimate with his mother, but who expected her to bypass the two of them and walk straight over.

The two were speechless for a moment, and then immediately followed her, and watched her fill a basin of water with a wooden basin and put a wooden ladle on it, and walked out.

Wu Song instantly walked over and took it, and asked softly, "Where is it?" ”

Xia Mei glanced at him and smiled slightly: "Go to the cellar in the backyard." ”

Wu Song nodded, took the basin and left, Xia Mei followed, Tang Bao followed with his little short legs, the three of them walked quickly to the cellar, Wu Song put down the basin and looked at Xia Mei quietly.

Xia Mei pursed her lips and looked at the basin of water with a nervous expression.

After hesitating for a moment, he took water into the wooden ladle, then loosened the handkerchief he had been holding in his hand, and poured a small ball of white powder into it.

In an instant, there was a "hissing" sound in the somewhat dark cellar.

Tang Bao's little body trembled, in the summer, he actually felt a little cold and cold, so he leaned over to his father on the side and hugged his tight thighs to keep warm.

"Alum, a white powdery crystal, soluble in water to absorb heat, can be used for gunpowder.

In ancient times, most of the ice making methods were made from alum, which could be reused after drying. ”

This passage kept wandering in her mind, and Xia Mei stared at the half-scoop of water in the wooden scoop with wide eyes through the dim light.

The half-scoop of water in the wooden scoop, half floating in the basin, was now cooling and freezing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When he was about half a pillar of incense, the water in this scoop was completely frozen.

Of course, the water in the basin was also completely frozen.

There was a strange silence in the cellar.

Xia Mei was surprised because it came too quickly, and she couldn't accept it for a while, and the other two were frightened by the scene in front of them.

In the sweltering heat of June, cicadas are chirping outside, the sun is dazzling, and the air is flowing with the heat of burning skin.

And in these small cellars a few feet square, there was a general scene of cold winter wax moon.

What to find, what to find Wu Song seemed to think of something, his pupils shook violently, and he looked up at the woman who was full of ecstasy on the side, his face was complicated and inexplicable.

Among the three, Tang Bao, an ignorant child, was the first to react, walked over curiously, and cautiously stretched out his chubby little fingers and poked the frozen surface.

"Hey, it's really ice! Mother, Daddy, it's really Bing! It's amazing! ”

There was an exaggerated exclamation, and Tang Bao had an extremely surprised expression on his face, as if he had found a new toy.

"Mother! You see! It's really ice! Really! ”

Xia Mei came back to her senses, her face was also irrepressible joy, and she smiled extremely excitedly: "Yes, yes, I saw it, I saw it!"

After speaking, he remembered something, and turned his head sharply to look at Wu Song on the side expectantly: "Husband! Did you see that?! I made ice! We've got ice! ”

Wu Song looked deeply at her surprised and expectant eyes for a moment, and then smiled lightly: "Yes, lady, you are so powerful...... It's like...... The immortal law is average. ”

Xia Mei smiled a little shyly, looked at the frozen ice cube again, and a touch of deep thought crossed her eyes.

"But how do you take out this ice cube?"

Wu Song pursed his lips, sighed leisurely under his eyes, stepped forward and shook it hard, and the wooden scoop came out of the ice.

When I picked it up, I threw down the ice ballast.

"Come, lady, you want ice."

Xia Mei was happy to see that the ice cubes inside had also become fine pieces, just right to use.

"Thank you, husband!"

Smiling happily, Xia Mei happily looked at the ice cube in her hand, feeling the familiar coldness, the refreshing coolness.

At this moment, it was really touching to tears.

After trying to calm down, Xia Mei walked out of the cellar with ice cubes, Tang Bao ran out with her heels, Wu Song was silent for a moment, and slowly followed.

Xia Mei ran to the kitchen quickly, put down the ice cube in her hand, but was a little difficult.

I've been looking forward to the ice cubes, and I actually got them, but I didn't have any ideas for a while.

It's like a dream.

Looking at Tang Bao's longing eyes in front of the door, Xia Mei touched her chin and felt agitated.

"Hmm...... Otherwise, let's make cold noodles and cucumber cold soup first! ”

PS: Because of physical reasons, I've been interrupting lately, I'm sorry...... I'll make up for it when I'm fine...... I'm really sorry for being a little bit more here today...... (To be continued.) )
