The tough wife has room to farm

Chapter 162 The Ice of Summer Is Hard to Find

Warm and curious looking back, what was left on the ground of the river beach was a black bear!
Although it is not as big as last time, it is still two to three hundred catties in size. It seems that this tiger family has a grudge against Xiong Xiazi.

Gifts are all given to Xiong Xiazi, and there is no one else.

Qiu Shangping, "This...I..."

After stuttering and choking for a long time, I finally choked out a sentence, "Is this rabbit an embarrassment to me? It's not as good as a beast!"

With a smile in Shen Pingxi's eyes, Wen Nuan secretly covered his mouth, and the two big men volunteered to carry the big tiger's gift, and went down the mountain with a full harvest.

Wen Nuan knows that their fishing ground will never be attacked by wild beasts in the future, because the tiger mother has agreed!
Going back to the home at the foot of the mountain lightly, the lights in Wang's house were turned off only after hearing the voices of several people. Even if there is no blood relationship, this is the real mother.

Put Blind Bear in the kitchen, wash up quickly, and then take the time to rest. Nuannuan still has apprentices to take care of tomorrow. No matter what era it is, this money is not something that can be earned by earning money. It has to be paid and worked hard.

Now there is a team of more than 20 apprentices in Shen's house. The happiest thing is the children and Mr. Shen. Even though he is an old man, he loves sweets very much. He is dazzled by all kinds of flavors. The pastries are simply not to my liking.

But after eating for more than ten days, the children also lost their original enthusiasm.

Ever since Mr. Shen saw the black bear in the kitchen, who hadn't scared the old Wang sisters, he has been clamoring to eat bear meat for a change.

It's a pity... Wen Nuan really doesn't have time right now, the bear only left the bear skin, and the rest was sent to shopkeeper Liu on the first floor, except for the bear gall for Old Shen to soothe his soul.

There is a fatal weakness in the pastries produced by those apprentices.

Called Qiu Shangping, the corners of his mouth are blistering in a hurry these days, and now it’s summer, this pastry is delicious, but it’s easy to spoil, especially when added with various warm-developed jams or cream varieties.

Generally, after a day or two, it will become sour and deteriorate.

For this era without refrigerators as a means of keeping fresh, it is undoubtedly a difficult problem that makes people scratch their heads.

Wen Nuan is still writing hard in the study, and the construction of the fishing ground has now become her main concern.

Regarding the secrets of pastry making, she has not left behind either. She basically gets along with two or three kinds of books every day. Adding them in, it has already begun to take shape, and it is quite a thick book.

When she was pondering some details of fish farming, Qiu Shangping knocked on the door of the study with a mournful face, "Sister-in-law..."

That listless look is like a vegetable seedling that has been wilted by the sun, and the slender eyebrows raised to one side are unclear because of the warmth.

Throwing himself into the chair in the study, Qiu Shangping began to complain, "Sister-in-law, the weather is so hot, it's like this at the foot of your mountain, what about other places?"

Nuan Nuan laughed, put down the work in hand, sat up straight, and slowly chatted with Qiu Shangping with his sore back, "Didn't you live like this in previous years? Why did you have such a big reaction this year?"

As for the clothes of the ancients, fortunately, ordinary people don’t have too many rules, and they don’t need three layers inside and three layers outside, but those who pay attention to some people still need white clothes as a lining, a burqa, and an outer layer. Tulle is only for the pursuit of ethereal and immortal posture.

Girls are even more indispensable for skirts and trousers. Compared with those cool summer clothes in the previous life, they are extremely hot and stuffy.

To be warm, to do as the Romans do, is to wrap yourself tightly. If you want to be cool, it all depends on peace of mind.

Qiu Shangping held the folding fan and fanned it exaggeratedly, "I'm fine to death from the heat, but sister-in-law, our pastries will go bad in just one day, what should we do?"

The water in the pastry is not very useful, it is basically a mixture of milk and oil, etc., the effect of this stabilizer is that warm spring water can't help much, maybe it's because of the heat, so Wen Nuan said something casually , "Use the refrigerator!"

Qiu Shangping doesn't know what a refrigerator is, but he knows the word ice, and with a shocked look on his face, he put his shoulders and said, "I also thought about using ice, but it's expensive. It is also impossible to store so much ice in the place that we can use it like that every day after opening!"

Sit up straight with a warm heart, and get serious, expensive!What did she hear?
I tried my best to think about the common sense about ice cubes in my mind. The original owner knew that there was an ice cellar in the house, and most of them were kept for use in summer to freeze some food. Or put it in a basin and send it to the master's house to cool down.

Ordinary people can't touch that kind of thing at all!

This time it can be called warm and happy, ice?Wanting is very simple, keep the water source as much as you want.

As long as there is one thing.

"Shang Ping, are you worried about ice cubes?"

"No, sister-in-law, it's hard to find ice. I think our business will have to wait until it cools down. We'll lose a lot of money!"

Merchants value profits, seeing the money in hand, flying away and telling you to wait another half year, it's not a good feeling.

Scratch your heart and scratch your liver, just like putting a bride in front of your eyes, telling you to raise a feeling for a few years.

"Don't wait, go and help me find something..." Nuan Wen stretched out her hand to beckon Qiu Shangping to come forward, and the young host just lazily laid her body on the desk and stretched her head over.

Wen Nuan murmured for a long time in a low voice, and even made gestures to describe, finally made his meaning clear.

Qiu Shangping nodded, turned around and left the house with a puzzled face, this... my sister-in-law wanted that kind of thing mysteriously, why?
I don't understand, it's really a needle in the bottom of a woman's heart!
What Wen Nuan wants is saltpeter, which has already appeared and is used by people to make fireworks. The price is very low, and many rocks can be found on the bare ground.

This is a proper ready-made calcium nitrate. Put it in the water and it will freeze the water immediately. Using the method of separating water with a partition, you can get edible ice that is not fused with calcium nitrate. Qiu Shangping said that he started to heat it up. Get up warm and think of a delicious smoothie.

If I remember correctly, the kitchen at home now has a lot of natural jams and fruits that have been researched by making cakes, milkshakes, smoothies...

Just muttering like this, Nuan Nuan turned and headed towards the kitchen.

The apprentices had already left, the kitchen was cleaned up spotlessly, and the things were neatly arranged. Nuan Nuan took out several delicious jams and began to wash, cut and prepare the fruits.

But Qiu Shangping said that it will take less than half an hour to get the things for her, prepare first, and let the adults and children take care of the summer heat later.

Thinking of Wen Liang who is far away in the state capital, living on the first floor and settling down, preparing to take the hospital exam while studying.

Warmth is full of thoughts, if Xiao Liangzi can also eat a sip of smoothie and read a book, he will definitely be able to calm down and not be disturbed by the heat.
