Chapter 142 Making an Ice Bucket



As soon as Chen Shuning stepped out of the house, he saw his younger brother teaching other educated youth how to freeze ice buckets in the yard.

Judging from the several frozen ice buckets already placed at the door of Zhong Lingling's room, it seems that everyone else except herself got up quite early.

Seeing her come out, Gu Xinyi hurriedly ran over and grinned, saying, "Shuning, how did you come up with this idea? It's really convenient for me. Otherwise, I was thinking of going to my second grandfather's house today to buy a few wooden buckets with lids, otherwise there would really be nowhere to put all that pork."

But look, nowadays all you need is a few buckets of well water to solve everything, saving a lot of money.

"Shuning, you wouldn't believe it, everyone in the front and back yards is busy making ice buckets right now. Everyone says your idea is brilliant, Shuning, you're so clever!"

Seeing that Gu Xinyi's demeanor didn't seem to be faking it, Chen Shuning finally felt completely relieved.

She was initially worried that Gu Xinyi, the time traveler, had also seen the video of the ice bucket making, which might lead her to have some unnecessary doubts about herself.

But now it seems she can rest assured. As for Yang Wanqiu, she is not worried. The book describes Yang Wanqiu as having been busy with business and fighting off mistresses since returning to the city, so she has no time to pay attention to any short videos.

So Chen Shuning smiled and said modestly, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that the house was cold a while ago, and the water tank in the kitchen often froze. I saw that the layer of ice that had formed looked just like the water tank."

Yesterday, I had too much meat, and I was thinking that my water tank wasn't big enough. I don't know why, but I suddenly thought that if I could take the ice out of the water tank, wouldn't it be a natural ice tank?

So I came up with some ideas, and to my surprise, I actually succeeded.

This thing isn't very sturdy; it can only keep out mice or something. But it's cheap, and it's not much trouble to make another one if it breaks.

"That would require you to be smart; I wouldn't have thought of that method."

By the way, Brother He was helping me nail up a frame in my woodshed.

Brother He said that was also your idea. Shuning, how come your brain is so clever?

"Actually, I just like to overthink things, how am I smart? You go ahead and do your thing, I'll go back and cook."

He Chaoyang got up early and went to the woodshed to build up the frame according to Chen Shuning's requirements.

Perhaps not wanting to disturb Chen Shuning's sleep, He Chaoyang moved very quietly, with Chen Jiandang, Gao Hongyuan, and Wang Zhi assisting him.

The frames were nailed on quickly. Chen Shuning's frame was already finished, and the others were now helping Gu Xinyi nail it on.
