Looking at his eldest son's flying eyes, Mr. Xu waved his hand in disgust, and
said, "Get out, get out, get out, don't bother me if it's okay!"
[58 Novel www.58xs.info] "……"
Boss Xu has no words, and feels that his father is too difficult to serve.
Coming out of the hall and going back to his own room, Mr. Xu saw the small
basket of lychees on the table.
"Daughter-in-law, what is this?"
"Huh? Why is it still ice?"
Boss Xu reached out and grabbed a lychee with a curious look on his face.
Zhou smiled and said, "Mother gave it to him. It was a gift from King Yan. It
was called lychee. I peeled the skin and ate the flesh inside, and the pit
came out."
"Is that so?"
Boss Xu quickly peeled a lychee and handed it directly to Zhou's mouth,
"Daughter-in-law, you come first!"
"you eat first!"
Zhou shook his head, "You are in charge, you must eat first!"
"Our family doesn't talk about this!"
Old Xu laughed, shook his hand, and motioned for Zhou to open his mouth.
Zhou opened his mouth and shouted at the lychee that Boss Xu had brought to
his lips.
The ice-cold lychee, sweet and sour and delicious, Zhou immediately showed an
expression of intoxication.
"Good times (eat)!"
With lychee in his mouth, Zhou's speech was a little fuzzy.
Boss Xu peeled another one and said, "I'll try it."
"Well, it's really good!"
However, although the lychee tastes really good, Boss Xu is obviously not very
interested.
He looked at the small crushed ice cubes mixed in the lychee, and paid more
attention to these ice cubes. The lychees must have been delivered from the
south by Kuaima. Even if ice cubes were put in the basket at that time, it was
impossible to keep the ice cubes until now. In other words, King Yan has the
method of making ice in his hands.
Boss Xu sighed. If he could get this method of making ice, he would be able to
make a profit by selling ice in the summer.
Unfortunately, this idea is destined to be unrealistic.
In the evening, Mr. Xu came back riding his pseudo-photograph of the Yuye
Lion.
The lychees sent by Mrs. Xu to his room did not move. Although Wang was
greedy, he still held it back.
The Wang family nowadays has really matured a lot since he had those twins. He
is also slowly learning from Mrs. Xu and his two sister-in-laws.
This person is smart and sincerely wants to learn, so he has made great
progress.
When the family had dinner and was enjoying the cold in the yard, Mr. Xu told
Mr. Xu about the ice cubes.
As a result, after listening to his elder brother's words, Xu Laosan was happy
at the time.
"Brother, what's the problem? Wait for me!"
Xu Laosan got up numbly, and soon went to the kitchen to find a small wooden
basin and a porcelain bowl.
The small wooden basin was filled with water, the porcelain bowl was filled
with water, and the porcelain bowl was placed in a small wooden dish filled
with water.
Then, he went out and turned around, got a bunch of white things back and
poured them into the water in the small tub.
"The third child, this is the frost?"
Mr. Xu stared at Mr. Xu, there were a lot of white things under the walls of
the old houses in the village.
"Yes!"
Xu Laosan smiled triumphantly, "This is called the saltpeter ice making
method, and it's long been recorded in the book."
"My Emperor, the founding father of the Tang Dynasty, used this method to
start my business. Brother, let me tell you, this method..."
Boss Xu is not interested in listening to the show-off of Xu Lao San, and
directly waved his hand, "Don't talk nonsense, just tell me, it's about how
long this thing can freeze!"
"Uh, I don't know!"
Xu Lao San caught blind in an instant.
He knows the saltpeter ice method, but he has never used it.
