"Is there an ice storage in Kaiyang County?" Qin Yao asked curiously.
Thinking of the various ice drinks before the end of the world, Qin Yao couldn't help but swallowing secretly.
Having a piece of ice in the hot summer is such a comfortable feeling.
Liu Ji nodded, "Yes, it's in the ice house outside the city. Every year after the snow falls, the river freezes over, and the government orders people to chisel the ice back into the ice house. The ice stored last year can be used until this autumn."
Then wait until winter to continue storing it, and continue using it after storing it, and repeat this process.
However, seeing Qin Yao's enthusiastic look, Liu Ji had to pour a bucket of cold water on her.
"That government icehouse only supplies ice to the city's nobles. Ordinary people like us can forget about it. If you have a lot of extra money, you can treat me to a bowl of dessert at the dessert shop."
As he said this, he swallowed his saliva unwillingly.
Qin Yao sneered at him, "Dream on!"
When she passed by just now, she saw the brands of drinks with the word "snow" on them. The starting price of a cup was fifty cents, which was enough to buy the three pounds of pork in her hand.
Anticipating her reaction like this, Liu Ji turned his back and made a snort.
When she turned around, Qin Yao had already brought Lao Huang out.
The couple looked at each other and then remembered an embarrassing question.
Two people, one horse, how to ride?
Thinking of the possibility that something might be unfavorable to him, Liu Ji stepped forward and grabbed the reins, asking tentatively:
"My lady, you won't let me run behind a horse, right?"
Qin Yao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and asked directly: "Can you ride it?"
Liu Ji shook his head honestly.
He would like to, but his family must have the conditions to do so.
Qin Yao shook her head and said, "Get on the horse. You sit in the front."
"Ah?" Liu Ji subconsciously raised his hand to measure the heights of the two people. Qin Yao was a head shorter than him.
If she sits in the front, will she still be able to see from the back?
Qin Yao slammed his raised hand open, and Liu Ji gasped in pain.
It turns out that it is visible!
Because...when the horse sped up, he was so scared that he just lay on the horse's back, holding the horse's neck tightly.
There was a whistling sound of strong wind next to my ears. Just as I was about to open my mouth, a mouthful of sand and dust flew in, and my butt was almost broken into pieces by the shaking.
He wanted to change his posture a little, but a warm body pressed down on him, and the fragrance of soapberry drifted into his nose.
Liu Ji froze instantly!
Later, later...he could no longer remember how he returned to Liujia Village.
I only remember hearing a voice behind me: "We're here, get out."
Then, he was ruthlessly thrown off the horse. He stood there in a daze, looking at the fiery sunset in the sky, which was pink and very beautiful.
A man and a horse rode forward against the sunset glow. The woman had her back straight, her body rising and falling with the horse's back, her ponytail tied up high swaying from side to side. She was so unrestrained, as if nothing in the world could restrain her.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to grab something, but caught nothing. He could only watch the heroic figure gradually walking away.
"Gurgle~"
Liu Ji swallowed unconsciously, shook his head violently, and when he looked up, he actually felt that the person on the horse was surrounded by a pink glow.
He raised his hand and slapped himself lightly!
Now the pink light is gone.
Qin Yao stopped at the open space by the village well, but did not see any children in the house.
Maybe he didn’t succeed in his bayberry soup business, so he went home early.
Qin Yao smiled helplessly, turned around and shouted: "Liu Ji, hurry up!"
Liu Ji came up breathlessly, looking up and complaining, "I have two human legs and you have four horse legs, and you didn't even say wait for me, and you're hurrying me up!"
Qin Yao frowned. Why did she feel that this useless man's tone of voice today was filled with a hint of coquettishness?
Forget it, never mind. He reached out and took the bag from him, put it on the horse, and headed for the Ma family.
Without the luggage, Liu Ji didn't go much faster. He would stop and sing to every villager he met along the way.
When others complimented him and called him "Liu Caizi", he shamelessly responded.
After such a long delay, Qin Yao had to go home, take off the saddle and feed the horse before he entered the house.
He smiled as soon as he entered the door, which showed that he had received a lot of compliments along the way. He used to be a scoundrel that everyone hated, but now he has become a talented person that people praise, feeling very happy.
"Huh?" Liu Ji scooped up some water to wash up, and looked around the kitchen and other rooms. No one was there. "Where are Dalang and the others?"
Qin Yao threw a handful of fine hay to the horse, clapped her hands and walked in through the back door. There was no one in the backyard.
"Maybe he went somewhere to play," she guessed.
When Liu Ji saw her coming, he subconsciously brought the basin in front of him over and said, "My lady, wash yourself."
After doing this, he slapped the back of his hand in annoyance, saying, "You are such a jerk!"
Qin Yao saw his weak "struggle", chuckled, and wrung out a handkerchief to wipe his face and neck.
Then he took off his coat and hung it on the clothesline in the yard. He then stood in the corridor wearing only a thin linen top, facing the door and enjoying the breeze.
Liu Ji was stunned by such ferocity.
Qin Yao glanced at him and said, "Why are you looking at me? It's getting dark, go out and look for the kids!"
The familiar days of oppression began again. He had just entered the door and hadn't relaxed for a quarter of an hour.
He was complaining in his heart, but with a meek smile on his face, "Hey, I'll go out and take a look."
Just as I was about to go out, the excited conversation of four children came up from the bottom of the mountain.
Soon, four familiar figures appeared at the gate.
When they saw their father and mother, the twins were stunned at first, and then ran in, eager to share their joy of the day.
