Chapter 48: Making Watermelon Juice

Gu Junze volunteered to be a coolie, and Zhang Ran was naturally happy to be the shopkeeper.

Not to mention, compared to Zhang Ran's slow speed, Gu Junze's speed is simply six to fly.

He wielded his heavy hoe and dug out the peach sapling.

After carefully removing the excess soil at the root of the peach tree sapling, Gu Junze immediately looked at Zhang Ran with an inviting face, "Ranran, is one enough, why don't I dig a few more for you?" ”

Working for the people he likes, Gu Junze doesn't feel hard at all, but his heart is bubbling with joy.

As the old saying goes, as long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle.

Gu Junze believes that as long as he persists, Zhang Ran will be moved by his sincerity sooner or later, and then be moved to make a promise.

Zhang Ran didn't know these little Jiujiu in Gu Junze's heart at all, and he looked very relaxed after digging a peach sapling.

Zhang Ran was very unkind, and instructed Gu Junze to dig out all the remaining three peach saplings.

With Gu Junze present, Zhang Ran was not in a hurry to go into the space to plant trees.

It is said that wealth is not exposed, it is not that Zhang Ran does not believe in Gu Junze's personality, but the existence of space is too rebellious, and she does not plan to tell anyone about it.

Zhang Ran carefully wrapped the roots of the four peach saplings, and then took them to the shade of the kitchen to put them away.

In the following time, Zhang Ran decided to test the effect of saltpeter ice first.

It just so happened that there was half a piece of watermelon left yesterday, just enough for her to make watermelon juice.

Gu Junze volunteered to help, but Zhang Ran had to tell him to squeeze the watermelon into juice.

And she herself took out the bag of saltpeter she had just bought from the cupboard, and then prepared a large porcelain basin, as well as an enamel bowl that was a circle smaller than the porcelain basin.

Zhang Ran first put half a basin of water in the large porcelain basin, and then filled the enamel bowl with clean water and put it into the large porcelain basin.

Then scoop a small half bowl of saltpeter into the porcelain basin on the periphery, and finally cover the porcelain basin with a clean lid.

There is no way, the conditions at home are too simple, this is already the best way Zhang Ran can think of, and I don't know what the effect of such ice making is.

After doing all this, Zhang Ran waited anxiously for about five minutes, and then impatiently lifted the lid of the pot.

Suddenly, a cold air flow rushed towards his face.

Zhang Ran felt a biting chill on his fingertips when he touched the porcelain basin, it seems that the ice-making effect of this simple device is still very good!

At first, Gu Junze didn't know what Zhang Ran wanted to do, but it wasn't until he saw Zhang Ran mixing the watermelon juice he had squeezed with ice water that he understood Zhang Ran's intentions.

Taking the bowl of ice watermelon juice handed to him by Zhang Ran, Gu Junze was pleasantly surprised as if he had won the jackpot, and poured all the watermelon juice into his stomach without hesitation.

Zhang Ran looked at him expectantly, "How is it, is it delicious, and how is the effect of relieving the heat?" ”

Gu Junze smashed his mouth twice, in addition to an extreme sense of coolness, his mouth was also filled with a sweet fragrance of watermelon, and he said his experience very sincerely:

"It's very delicious, after drinking it, I feel that the whole person is cold from the inside out, can I drink another bowl?"

Rushing to Xiaowan Village under the scorching sun, Gu Junze also felt that it was too hot, and now that there was such a delicious and heat-relieving drink, he accidentally became addicted to it.

After Zhang Ran poured him another bowl of iced watermelon juice, he also poured himself a small half bowl.

The cold watermelon juice does have a refreshing cooling sensation in the mouth, but it seems that the sweetness of the watermelon is not particularly strong.

If it is for children, the taste may be a little lighter.

It happened that there was a small jar of honey in the cupboard, Zhang Ran quickly added a few drops to the bowl, and then stirred evenly with chopsticks for several minutes, the taste of watermelon juice was really much better than before!

Zhang Ran poured the improved watermelon juice to Gu Junze to taste, and he also said that it was better than when he didn't add honey before.

Zhang Ran adjusted several servings of watermelon juice with different sweetnesses one after another, and finally finalized an optimal ratio.

Now, she just has to wait until tomorrow to go to the market to see how well the sales are doing.
