Chapter 340: Cellar



After Xiaoguo left, the grown men finally stopped being so tense and completely released their true nature.

In an instant, the chopsticks on the table started flying, a prawn flew up, a crab slid past, and a piece of pumpkin entered the bowl...

Even in such a chaotic environment, Jiang Shanhe still did not forget to continue to play the role of a good husband and father, and it became his job to add more food and dishes to Xiaoyi and Zhuangzhuang.

There was no other way. The two children were still young and couldn't snatch the food even if they wanted to. The food they picked up was destined to be robbed.

After eating, Li Shouji burped very loudly, and finally, under the disgusted gazes of several others, he finished the last grain of rice stuck on his chopsticks.

“Eh~”

Zhuangzhuang and Xiaoyi expressed their disapproval at the same time. Although saving food is a good thing, he ate too much and returned his bowl several times.

"Why, isn't that the case with you?"

Li Shouji said this nonchalantly, and asked them to look at the bowls in front of them. Every one of them was clean. They didn't need to wash them, just put them away.

After hearing this, several people blinked their eyes in embarrassment. Indeed, none of them had the qualifications to dislike Li Shouji. They were all crows, so why would they complain about the other?

The end of dinner means the dishes have to be cleared. Normally, the busy kitchen would send someone to deliver the meals and collect the dishes, but this time they cooked by themselves, so no one came to collect them on time. They could only clean up the dishes themselves and have someone collect them, or send them themselves.

Of course, no matter which one they choose, they still have to put the empty bowls, chopsticks and plates back on the tray themselves.

However, no matter who comes to release it, some people may start to have some thoughts, after all, they really don’t want to move after eating.

Big fish refers to small fish, and small fish refers to shrimp.

The three grown men came to the same conclusion that children should exercise more. Walking a hundred steps after a meal can help them live to be ninety-nine, so...

"Hey Xiaoyi, let's go review our lessons."

Zhuangzhuang was sharp-eyed and quick-witted. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately pulled Xiaoyi, who was still in a state of distress, back into the house.

The three grown men looked at the backs of the two little shrimps helplessly. They couldn't stop them using this excuse, after all, they wanted to learn.

Since the little one can't point, then...

"Alas, I still have a lot of things to do, so I'll leave first."

Shao Zhan saw that he was affected, so he quickly stood up and used "I" to suppress the two people. Looking at their expressions of anger but not daring to speak, he went back to sleep with satisfaction.

The pressure of cleaning the table instantly fell on Jiang Shanhe and Li Shouji.

"I..."

"I, the general, also have some things to deal with, so I will...haha."

Li Shouji bit his lower lip hard and rolled his eyes countless times at Jiang Shanhe who was leaving. "I and the generals have come out, what else can I do? Who made him a lower rank than them?"

There was no other way, he was the only one left, so he reluctantly began to clear the table. Just as he picked up the chopsticks, a plan suddenly came to his mind, and he ran out in a hurry. They had almost finished their meal at this time, and the police who were clearing the plates were still busy.

Li Shouji stepped outside for a while and saw a lot of them. He randomly stopped someone and asked her to clean up. After watching her take them away, he turned around and left, touching his round belly and going back to sleep.

Xiaoguo has basically visited all the places on the island. He has been here for more than half a month and has been playing here for more than half a month. He has been to all the places that can be visited on the island. Now the only thing left is to go swimming in the sea.

Although it was scorching hot outside, Xiaoguo didn't feel it. The reason was that they were carrying baskets of ice into the house. Before the ice in the pots melted, they would remove it and replace it with new ones.

Seeing the police officer leaving with another basin of ice, Xiaoguo became interested. She was really curious about how they stored the ice, so she followed her out.

The policewoman was not very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old. Xiaoguo followed her and felt that she was a little reserved, so she lowered her voice and chatted with her.

"Are you going to throw away this ice?"

"No." The little girl said dryly, her voice still trembling, "We need to put it back in the cellar and freeze it into ice again."

"Oh~" Xiao Guo nodded, thinking it was a good idea to recycle and not waste anything. "Then can I go to the cellar with you to take a look?"

The little girl hesitated after hearing this and glanced at Xiao Guo secretly, "...Okay."

Xiaoguo smiled at her happily, and then looked around at the surrounding environment. She had to remember the location, otherwise she would not be able to find the way when she came back later.

The little girl looked at her smiling face and secretly thought that she was very pretty and probably wasn't a bad person, so it was okay to take her to the cellar.

The cellar stored some fresh meat, food and fruits, so outsiders should not be allowed to enter or exit, but she felt that the lady in front of her was not a bad person, so she agreed.

The two of them walked along the way, and the temperature dropped lower and lower. Xiaoguo couldn't help rubbing his arms. The huge trees around them were so tall that they blocked the little sunlight that could get in. No wonder the temperature was so low.

After walking a few steps, I saw two guards guarding a door.

"Ma'am, we're here."

The little girl stopped and said to Xiaoguo.

Led by the little girl, she entered the gate easily. Inside the gate was an extra-large ordinary room where the cellar manager was sitting. There was a stack of thick paper on the table and a brush soaked in ink next to it.

The manager knew the girl and when she saw Xiaoguo standing nearby, she carefully asked about her identity and purpose. Only after she was sure that there was no problem did she let her go.

There was a wide staircase extending downwards in the middle of the room. Both rows of walls inside were filled with candles, making the room very bright.

No one came to the cellar at this time, and the footsteps of the two people echoed in this empty cellar, with a little infiltration.

But the little girl seemed to be used to it, and her face looked very normal. It was okay during the day, but people only sneaked in at night. At least there were people during the day, but there were not many people upstairs and downstairs at night. However, those who were on duty had to come down, and it was useless.

Xiaoguo roughly estimated the length of the stairs. Based on the time it took her to come down, the cellar must be at least three or four meters.

As soon as I went down to the cellar, a gust of cold air hit me in the face, and the temperature in the air dropped by at least ten degrees in an instant.

Xiao Guo hugged his arms uncomfortably, but the little girl still didn't react. He went down the stairs and came to the flat floor, where an extra-large thick curtain appeared in front of him.

The little girl opened it from the middle, revealing the bright light inside, and said with a smile, "Madam, come in."

"Thank you." Xiao Guo thanked him and walked in.

The little girl followed closely and lowered the curtain.

A huge cellar appeared before their eyes. If Xiaoguo were to describe it, it would be a cellar-shaped refrigerator. There were no candles inside, but it was still brightly lit.

The surroundings were filled with ice cubes, and there was an ice table inside, which was filled with fresh meat and fruits that were afraid of spoiling.

While she was admiring it, the little girl had already carried the basket to a lower piece of ice, tilted the basket and poured it onto the ice. The melted water stains froze instantly when they landed on the ice.

"Once we bring the crushed ice back, we keep it on the ice to keep it frozen, and then we use an ice pick to change the ice."

The little girl explained to Xiaoguo.

Xiaoguo was shocked after hearing this. The wisdom of the ancients was truly endless.

"Why is it so bright here?"

Xiaoguo looked around for several times but didn't see anything that could be illuminated, and couldn't help feeling a little strange.

"Because of the night-shining stone." This cellar was dug out bit by bit by them, and they also renovated the inside bit by bit, so they are very familiar with the construction inside.

"Night Light...Stone?"

Xiaoguo repeated it curiously, but couldn't it be a night-shining pearl?
