"Where's my daughter?"
"I don't know what I did when I got back to the house."
"Didn't she say she wanted to make ice?" Zhao Dashu was anxious. This was the most important thing now. Only when he saw the ice could he feel relieved.
"Girl, can I come in?"
Zhao Xiaoyu was drawing a picture of a rice seedling in the house. "Dad, what do you have?"
"When are we going to make ice cubes?"
I bought saltpeter in the county town, which made it easy to make ice cubes.
"Go bring a bucket of water to my room. Don't fill it too full. And bring a large basin and a lid."
“Hey!”
Zhao Xiaoyu continued to draw the picture in his hand. Transplanting rice seedlings was indeed very hard work. Everyone could not even straighten their backs during the whole spring plowing process.
The rice seedling horse is made of wood processed into the shape of a small boat with the head and tail raised. People sit on it and slide in the mud to plant rice.
Placing the seedlings on the bow saves time in going back and forth to get the seedlings, making farmers more comfortable when transplanting.
"What are you doing?"
"Be a person who can plant rice without bending over."
Zhao Dashu: ... "Don't do it. Enjoy your blessing. Your father doesn't work now, and I don't plant rice."
Zhao Xiaoyu didn't say that she thought it was too difficult to wait three years to take the imperial examination. Even if she passed the examination, what would it matter? The county magistrate and the prefect were all good officials. Why didn't she do something to benefit the public and herself and her family?
perhaps……
"Dad, can you help me call the carpenter? I'll tell him how to do it."
"Don't you want to go out and talk?" His daughter is in her boudoir, so it's better for men to stay out of here.
Dad seems to have become a little more pedantic.
Zhao Xiaoyu gave instructions to the rice seedlings and went back to the house to make ice cubes. "Is that it?"
Zhao Dashu and Song thought it was something high-end, but it turned out to be just something bought from the clinic. They poured some of it in, stirred it, and the daughter said that it would be fine after a while until it froze.
Just like this... you can make ice like this? Why does he feel so shocked?
"Dad, this ice is not edible. When the weather gets hot, I will find a way to make some edible ice and make some smoothies for you to try."
Zhao Dashu began to doubt his life, "Girl, can this make ice?" He always felt like a big fool. Why doesn't everyone know how to do something so simple?
"Yes, you can just wait."
“It’s time to eat!”
The two girls in the room went out, "Big sister, the kitchen made your favorite braised pork trotters today."
"You will become beautiful if you eat pig's trotters. Li Xi should also eat more." Zhao Xiaoyu coaxed the girl. The girl didn't like to eat pig skin.
"I'm already beautiful and don't need to eat pig's trotters. Uncle Shunzi said I'm the prettiest girl in the village." The little girl raised her chin, put her hands on her hips and turned around, looking very contented.
She is satisfied with herself now.
"Well, you are the most beautiful girl in the village. If you eat pig's trotters, you may become the most beautiful girl in the county."
"Really? But today the shopkeeper said that the kids in the county town are not as cute as me."
"I'm just being polite, I'm just kidding you!"
Zhao Dashu successfully angered the little girl.
"Mom, I'm afraid of the dark at night, please sleep with me!"
