Chapter 132: Ice Bowl

Jiang Hai was quite worried that his sister-in-law would not understand the ratio of materials for making firecrackers and would injure herself in an accident. He couldn't explain it to his eldest brother.

Gu Xia had a smile on her face, this was a big oolong, she hadn't thought about making firecrackers.

"Third brother, when did I say that I was going to make firecrackers. It's too hot, I want to try making ice cubes out of saltpeter and drink something cold? If it succeeds, this hot summer will be better. ”

Jiang Hai was also stunned after hearing this, and then smiled embarrassedly, "Then I really misunderstood." Can saltpeter still be used as an ice cube? ”

He had read a lot, but he had never heard of it.

But he knew that his sister-in-law would not lie to him, as long as his sister-in-law said that what could be done, it would have been realized.

But he really couldn't think of what the connection between saltpeter and ice could be?

Jiang Hai didn't ask much, but he didn't leave, staying and quietly watching how his sister-in-law made ice cubes.

Ice cubes can be eaten in the summer, and they are stored in the cellar in the winter, but ordinary people, they can't store ice cubes for so long, and this is in August.

Gu Xia didn't care that Jiang Hai was watching beside him, there was nothing to hide from his family. It happened that Jiang Hai instructed him to come back when she was in the middle of the year and told him to go and fetch a basin of water.

Jiang Hai obediently brought a large basin of water, and saw that Gu Xia put some saltpeter in it, and the water in the basin that was visible to the naked eye quickly froze, and Gu Xia put a small basin full of water in the basin, and it gradually froze.

Jiang Hai was stupid, it turned out that saltpeter was so simple to make ice cubes.

He hadn't thought about it before, if he had thought earlier, he would not be able to eat ice in the summer, and it would be cool to think about.

It has to be his sister-in-law, who has novel ideas in his head at any time, and he admires his sister-in-law very much.

"Sister-in-law, your saltpeter ice making method is also too good. It's a pity that we don't have all the fruits in our house, otherwise we can make ice bowls and eat them. Jiang Hai sighed.

The ice bowl can't be eaten, and it's good that he can drink some ice water. So he went to get two bowls, brought out the basin that had not yet frozen in the small basin, poured two bowls of water, and gave a bowl to his sister-in-law.

Jiang Hai took a bowl of ice water in one breath, and the whole heart was cold, and this feeling was just one word "cool".

Gu Xia didn't have time to persuade him, and he saw that Jiang Hai and a large bowl of ice water were dry. She only took a few sips and didn't drink any more.

It's cool, but what's the point of just drinking water!

"Third brother, I still have a lot of fruit in the house that I haven't eaten, so I'll take it out and make it into an ice bowl for everyone to eat." Gu Xia said and turned around and went back to the house.

The two little ones were still asleep, and she didn't have to worry about them, as soon as her consciousness moved, the apples and peaches planted in the backyard of the space appeared on the table in front of her out of thin air.

The apples are red and the peaches are ripe, and the taste is sure to be delicious.

Gu Xia found a fruit basket, stuffed apples and pears into it, and filled a basket full of enough for them to eat.

Jiang Hai saw his sister-in-law coming out with a basket of fruits, and he didn't ask much, thinking that it was two fat and three dogs who went into the city to deliver goods, and the sister-in-law asked them to bring back the fruits.

"Third brother, didn't you say you wanted to eat ice bowls? Sister-in-law, this can satisfy you. Gu Xia said with a smug expression.

When Jiang Hai heard this, his heart was beautiful, and his sister-in-law was really good to him.

He helped wash the fruits, and the apples were red and big, and the peaches were round and full, and the fairy peaches mentioned in the book were nothing more than that.

"The fruit that my sister-in-law bought from a fruit shop in the city is so good, it is better than the tribute fruits in the palace. It can be sweet when you look at it. Jiang Hai is not a person who likes to ask, but he is just too curious to help but ask.

Gu Xia didn't answer him, but asked rhetorically, "How do you know that this fruit is better than the tribute fruit?" Could it be that the third brother has also eaten tribute fruit? Isn't Gongguo something that only those royal relatives and nobles in the capital can eat? ”

Jiang Hai's heart was empty, he shouldn't have asked his sister-in-law, he was asked at this time.

Gu Xia saw that his face was red, and he was in a hurry, and the third brother was not good at talking panicked in front of her. She found a step for Jiang Hai: "The third brother will cut apples and peaches into small pieces, right?" ”

"Sister-in-law, I will, I'll cut the fruit." Jiang Hai saw that his sister-in-law did not continue to ask, so he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly took the work over.

Gu Xia went to make some ice cubes, and when Jianghu cut the fruit into small pieces, she poured the ice cubes into it. Made a large pot of ice fruits. The two of them filled a bowl and found a shady place to eat. Wait until all the people in the house wake up before eating.

The ripe apples are sweet and crisp, with a slight hint of acidity, and full of fruity flavor. The peaches are even more juicy, and when you take a bite, you will be sweet in your heart. It's cool, not to mention relieving the heat.

Gu Xia ate a whole bowl and didn't eat it again, he really couldn't eat too much cold at one time, his stomach would not be able to stand it.

The two little ones woke up, but they didn't see their sister-in-law by their side, and their faces were full of unhappiness. The two little ones climbed out of bed and ran out sleepy-eyed, not forgetting to shout "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law." ”

Gu Xia heard the call of the milk dumplings, and hurriedly responded, "Sister-in-law made a cold fruit for you to eat." This is for you. ”

The two little ones were originally quite aggrieved, but the sister-in-law didn't sleep with them in her arms. Tears were brewing, and when I heard that there was something delicious, I immediately turned around happily in place.

The joy of a child is as simple as that.

Gu Xia specially picked the fruit and didn't put ice in it, so children can't eat it too cold.

The two small ones have special small bowls, one for each person and a bowl of cold and cold fruit pieces.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." The two little ones had bright eyes when they got the ice bowl, and they didn't forget to say thank you to their sister-in-law.

Who wouldn't love a polite and cute child?

Mother Jiang and Gu Chunniang came out together, and Gu Xia beckoned them to eat ice bowls.

Several people were surprised, the fruit was sweet and cool, and when they took a bite, the heat on their bodies was gone.

"Where did Xiao Xia's ice cubes come from?" Jiang Mu asked while eating.

"My mother was made of saltpeter ice. In the future, we can eat ice fruits every day. Gu Xia replied proudly.

Mother Jiang wanted to ask, is there anything else that her daughter-in-law can't do?

Saltpeter ice? Only her daughter-in-law can think of it, right?

She's blessed again.

But why did her daughter-in-law only serve her such a little, the peaches were too sweet, the apples were crunchy, and she hadn't eaten enough.

Mother Jiang still wanted to hold a bowl, but Gu Xia snatched the bowl away, and stuffed the uncut apples and peaches into her hands, "Mother, you have had stomach problems before, so you can't eat too much cold." The stomach is afraid of cold. ”

Gu Xia didn't mention it, Mother Jiang almost forgot about this stubble. She had never had a stomach ache since she was cured by Gu Xia. I have to say that the daughter-in-law's medical skills are exquisite.

It's a pity that you can't eat too much ice fruit that is so cool.

Jiang Xiaoyue and Da Ya Xiaoya also served ice fruits and ate them comfortably on the side.

Gu Chun had something on his mind, and he was not in the mood to eat, so he said hello to Gu Xia and was going to work.

"Sister, you don't have to work in such a hurry, come and eat a bowl of cold and cold fruits." Gu Xia called out to her sister, took a bowl of ice fruit and handed it to her sister.
