Chapter 178 Eating too cold food will freeze the babies
Jiang Ning also noticed that when Daya was talking to her, her dark eyes were always looking to the side.
There, was the half-eaten watermelon that Jiang Ning had just eaten.
The juicy red watermelon is so tempting.
A child's nature cannot be hidden.
Gurgle.
Daya licked her lips and swallowed hard.
If Liu Xiangmei was in this room at this moment, she would probably ask Jiang Ning immediately if she could have a taste of the watermelon.
But the two little girls were not as shameless as Liu Xiangmei.
They also have the child's shyness, even a little too much introversion.
Even though he was extremely greedy, he never asked for anything.
Jiang Ning looked at the clear eyes of Daya and Erya, and then at their slightly dry lips, and a feeling of pity suddenly surged up in his heart.
She lowered her head, approached Daya and Erya, and asked softly.
"Da Ya, Er Ya, do you want to eat watermelon?"
Daya pursed her lips, looking too embarrassed to speak.
Erya hid behind her sister, looking at the whirring electric fan, then at the tempting big watermelon, her eyes always timid.
Jiang Ning touched the two little girls' faces affectionately.
He continued speaking gently.
"Don't be polite to auntie, auntie will treat you to watermelon."
She used a small knife to cut the watermelon into small pieces so that Daya and Erya could eat them easily.
Daya and Erya were standing by, watching intently, unable to help but reveal excitement in their eyes.
But when Jiang Ning was about to hand the watermelon to them.
"Auntie, wait a moment."
Daya suddenly spoke.
Immediately following.
Daya took Erya's hand and they walked out of Jiangning's cottage.
After a while.
From the small courtyard outside the house came the sound of flowing water.
"Erya, wash your hands. Auntie said before that you should wash your hands before eating."
Two little girls, one big and one small, huddled together.
Daya stood on tiptoe, used a ladle to draw water from the water tank, and then gently poured it into Erya's little hands.
She instructed her sister carefully.
"Rub your hands together and clean them."
The water washed their little hands bit by bit.
Jiang Ning stood by the door, watching the scene with great satisfaction, and returned to the house silently.
When Daya and Erya came to Jiang Ning again.
They had sweet smiles on their faces and raised their wet little hands to show Jiang Ning.
"Auntie, look, we all washed our hands~"
"Great! Da Ya and Er Ya did a great job. As a reward, you can have an extra piece of watermelon. How about two pieces each?"
"Can we?"
"Of course! Daya and Erya are obedient children, and obedient children will be rewarded. Here—"
Jiang Ning gently placed the cut watermelon in their palms.
Daya and Erya looked at the watermelon, then at the gentle Jiang Ning, their black eyes sparkling.
I held the watermelon in my hands carefully, afraid of dropping it on the ground.
Took a light bite.
The cool and sweet watermelon juice instantly fills your mouth.
The summer heat seemed to disappear at this moment.
"Da Ya, Er Ya, is the watermelon sweet?"
"Auntie, watermelon is sweet~ so sweet~ sweeter than candy~"
that's all.
A group of two people, one big and two small, were fanning the sound of an electric fan and sipped sweet watermelons.
I spent a happy afternoon.
It is enough to become a beautiful memory like a gem.
…
Perhaps because of eating the watermelon, Jiang Ning became more greedy and craved for coolness.
On ordinary days, Qin Jiulie always looked at her, more and more like looking at an ignorant child.
Sometimes, even when she just drank a sip of cold water, the man would stare at her with his stern eyes.
Jiang Ning really had no choice but to maintain the good traditional habit of the Chinese people - drinking warm water.
But how can we endure this in the middle of August?
When Jiang Ning was craving for something cool, he could only eat secretly away from Qin Jiulie.
The best place to hide, of course, is inside the Lingbao space.
"Are you ready for what I asked you to prepare?"
Jiang Ning's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly.
"Here you go - there is nothing in this space that I can't handle."
The handsome little boy took out a box with a proud look on his face.
Jiang Ning opened the box immediately.
Then, a wisp of white smoke came out, which was cool mist.
Inside the box is the white snow that the Space Boy brought down from the high snowy mountains.
Everything in the Lingbao space is pure, and the snow is spotless.
Jiang Ning looked at the cold snow and couldn't help licking his lips.
Isn’t this ready-made “shaved ice”!
She has been craving this for a long time.
Jiang Ning divided the snow in the wooden box into two parts, took out one part and stored it somewhere else, ready to use it directly as material.
The other part is used as a tool.
She took a silver tray and placed it on top of the snow.
After a while, the tray became icy cold.
Immediately following.
Pour some milk onto the tray, not too much, just a thin layer.
As the cold air from the accumulated snow surges upward, the milk will slowly change from a liquid state to a smoothie state.
If you use two small spatulas and scoop back and forth, the smoothie will form faster.
Jiang Ning took out two large bowls.
First put some soft white snow at the bottom of the bowl, then cover it with a layer of milk sorbet, and then add the red watermelon balls.
If you add some condensed milk and pour it on top, it will be even more perfect.
Just like that, a serving of watermelon shaved ice is ready.
"Tongtong, you don't know how hot the weather is outside! There's no refrigerator at home, and no popsicles to eat. I've been craving for it for a long time, and today I can finally have it!"
It was rare for Jiang Ning to show such childlike excitement.
She held the shaved ice in one hand and a spoon in the other, preparing to devour it and satisfy her craving.
However.
Just at this moment.
A pair of small hands gently pulled her elbow.
When Jiang Ning turned around, he saw the space boy's young face with a slightly frown on his brows, revealing a mature look.
Especially those ink-black pupils, which were full of disapproval.
He moved his little mouth and spoke seriously.
"Pregnant women can't eat ice."
Jiang Ning immediately retorted, "Who said that?"
“It’s written in the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine.”
The space boy spoke in a serious tone, with a solemn voice.
He then recited the contents of "Huangdi Neijing" to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning hurriedly covered his little mouth, then let out a long sigh.
She murmured and complained.
"Alas... Qin Jiulie is watching over me in the outside world. I thought I could relax in the Lingbao space. Tongtong, why are you watching over me too?"
The space boy blinked, and his bright black pupils moved slightly downward.
His eyes fell on Jiang Ning's increasingly bulging belly.
He said seriously and proudly.
"Because I'm the oldest brother, and as a brother I should take care of the babies. If you eat something too cold, the babies will get frozen."
