Chapter 300: Not Enough Ice

Li Xin laughed and said, "It was the day we had supper. Didn't I tell you that? He treats me well, so I treat him well too."

Qiao Yu thought for a moment and said, "Bing Jelly tastes better when it's cold. We don't have much ice left at home, so I suggest you call someone up to eat it. And by the way, call Wen Ge'er, Xiao Bai and the others for me."

Qiao Yu originally wanted to ask everyone to come up and have a taste, but when she thought about the bowl of soup the children had made, with the ice cubes, it would only be about forty bowls at most.

Maybe not enough.

Li Xin: "Oh, okay. I'll go down and ask them to come up. Brother, I want one with everything, and one with just brown sugar water. Both with lots of ice, lots of ice!"

Qiao Yu said helplessly: "I know, I know. You are the only one who knows how to eat it. I'll add more when you come back, otherwise it won't taste good."

Li Xin then ran away happily.

Qiao Yu went to check the ice jelly in the mountain spring water and found that it had all solidified.

Gu Feng hugged Gu Heng: "Do you want to take it out now?"

Qiao Yu blinked at him and said, "Don't take it yet. They haven't come yet. Leave it for a while. I'll make you a bowl first."

Gu Feng raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay."

Qiao Yu walked up to Gu Heng and teased him, then went to the cellar to get a piece of ice and broke it into pieces with a large spoon.

I filled two bowls with crushed ice, then went to the mountain spring to scoop some ice powder and added it into the bowls, then went back to the yard to add the ingredients.

One bowl was added with honey, and the other bowl was added with brown sugar water.

Then add a little bit of each ingredient.

"Brother Gu, sit down quickly and let me hold Hengzi."

Qiao Yu said this as she held her son over and then signaled Gu Feng with her eyes to eat the ice jelly.

Gu Feng looked at the crystal clear ice jelly, then looked at Qiao Yu, then scooped a spoonful and fed it to Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu didn't mix it well just now, so the taste was very light in his mouth, but the icy taste still made Qiao Yu squint his eyes unconsciously.

Well, that's what it feels like.

Ice cold.

"Brother Gu, you can mix it a little more before eating." Qiao Yu reminded gently.

Gu Feng stirred it obediently, then scooped a big mouthful into his mouth.

Suck it~

Gu Feng was stunned for a moment. He had just used too much force and drank the ice jelly directly.

It was the first time for him to eat dessert with this taste.

"Qiao'er, this tastes so good. It's smoother than buttermilk."

Qiao Yu nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes. It feels cool and comfortable after eating it. This is my and Li Xin's favorite snack to cool down when the weather is hot in our hometown."

Gu Feng scooped another spoonful and then fed Qiao Yu another spoonful.

"Hey, he's eating behind our backs."

Gu Gang’s voice rang out.

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "How can we eat secretly? We eat openly."

Gu Feng pushed another bowl of ice jelly with honey in front of Gu Gang: "There's another bowl."

Hong Xiu glared at Gu Gang and said angrily, "Why don't you go get a new spoon?"

Just as the four of them finished tasting, the children came back, along with Li Xin and others.

Qiao Yu handed Gu Heng to Bai Lan, and then asked Gu Feng to take out the last ice cubes and crush them.

Then the ice jelly was taken out from the spring water, and the children were very excited when they saw the solidified ice jelly in the basin.

Every time Qiao Yu makes a bowl, she would ask whether she wants honey or brown sugar water, and what other ingredients to add.

He felt like he was selling ice jelly at a stall.

In the end, everyone in the yard had a bowl in hand. Qiao Yu asked Bai Lan to put Gu Heng in the cradle and made a bowl for her.

Su Qing took his bowl and sat over with Bai Lan: "My condiments are different from yours, would you like to try them?"

Bai Lan smiled and said yes, then took a bite from the spoon Su Qing fed her: "Mm, delicious."

Da Zhuang and Xiao Bai hadn’t come up to try anything new for a long time. They were surprised by the icy taste of the ice jelly after taking the first bite.

Xiao Bai: "Brother Qiao, how did you do this? It's amazing."

Gu Xiaoyan said happily, "This ice jelly was made by my brother and sister!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately praised: "Awesome!"

Xie Tianyu was also amazed by the taste of the ice jelly, especially since this magical food was made by himself and Gu Xiaoyan and others. He felt a special sense of accomplishment when he saw everyone praising it.

"Uncle Qiao, can I buy some ice powder seeds? I want my parents to try some too."

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "Buy whatever you want. You picked them in the first place. I'll decorate them for you later. Remember to rub them with boiled water when you go back. I'll write down how much you need. I'll also pack you a portion of the side dishes. As for the sugar water, just ask the kitchen to prepare it for you when you get home. The most important thing is to add ice cubes, understand?"

If the ice jelly is at room temperature, the taste will be much worse.

Xie Tianyu nodded vigorously.

Qiao Xing held the bowl and sat next to the old man: "Grandpa, do you like it?"

As Grandpa Wang got older, he liked soft food. Hearing this, he smiled and nodded, "I like it. You kids are really capable. I heard that you also picked this ice powder seed from the mountain?"

Qiao Xing nodded, and then said modestly: "Daddy is amazing, he recognized the ice powder seeds. Grandpa, if you like it, I will make it for you every day in the future."

Uncle Wang smiled from ear to ear: "Okay, okay, but you have to go to school in two days. Have you forgotten what your father said about focusing on your studies?"

Qiao Xing hurried to see Qiao Yu, and when he found that he hadn't noticed, he whispered, "Then let's do it during the break at the cram school."

Wen Geer liked the taste of the ice jelly as soon as he tasted it for the first time, and asked Qiao Yu hurriedly: "Qiao Geer, this tastes good... no, it's delicious. The villa can sell it!"

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "You can sell it, but ice jelly is better when it's cold. There's no ice left in the cellar."

Wen Ge'er said regretfully, "Hey! Let's freeze more ice cubes and store them this winter!"

Qiao Yu nodded: "Yes! We have built a special ice cellar in the warehouse. It's quite big. If it is full, it should be enough to last for a year."

By then, the cellar at home will continue to store ice, which will definitely last longer than this year.

When Li Xin heard this, he suddenly remembered the time-travel novels he had read before. Wasn't there a plot in which people made ice and sold it, and then became rich overnight?

What was that thing? He remembered it was a kind of ore, what was it?

Why can't I remember it suddenly?

Ling Lie stood beside him, eating ice jelly while observing Li Xin's expression.

Why are you happy at one moment and frowning at the same time?

He poked Li Xin gently with his elbow: "What's wrong?"

"Ah? What?" Li Xin looked at Ling Lie blankly.

"Why are you frowning? What are you thinking about?" Ling Lie asked bluntly.

Li Xin said "Oh" and rubbed his brows: "Nothing, I was thinking about something, but I can't remember it."

Ling Lie heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "I thought you didn't want me to stand next to you."

Song Xiaoyu, who was standing aside, moved aside silently: I feel like you don’t want me to stand next to you.
