While helping, Honeysuckle said, "Girl, this time we have really come back with a full load."

Nanny Yang also nodded and said distressedly: "Yes, young lady, but this will cost a lot."

Su Yue nodded slightly and said, "The current situation is unclear, and these supplies may come in handy at a critical moment. Don't worry about the money, as long as we can keep everyone safe, everything is worth it."

After moving everything, Su Yue saw that it was almost noon and the temperature around her had risen by at least several degrees. She was afraid that she would get heatstroke if she continued walking around, so she told Song Da to go back to the farm.

When Song Da heard that he could finally go back, a happy smile appeared on his sunburned face. He had been eager to go home for a long time. If he continued to be exposed to the sun, it would not be a matter of whether his skin would get tanned or not, he would feel like his skin would be peeling off.

As soon as Su Yue, her master and her servant entered the carriage, they discovered that there was only a hint of shade in the carriage, and the ice in the ice basin had already melted into water.

Before Su Yue even sat down, she quickly took out another large piece of ice, and soon the car became cool immediately.

Ren Dong quickly took a clean handkerchief and wiped Su Yue's sweat while saying, "I think the best thing I have done in my life is to follow you, otherwise there would be no ice cubes to enjoy."

Su Yue smiled slightly and said, "You are such a sweet girl. If you follow me, I will not treat you unfairly."

After returning to the manor, Song Da arranged for his servants to move the supplies back to the manor, while Su Yue wanted to go back to her own yard. She was now not only sticky but also wet all over, and she just wanted to go back and take a shower quickly.

As a result, not long after they left, they discovered that the Liu family and servants in the front yard of the manor were catching cicadas among the numerous apple trees under the scorching sun.

Seeing this, Madam Yang frowned and said, "Are you still catching cicadas? It's so hot, be careful not to get a heat stroke."

Su Yue also thought so. She asked Rendong to tell everyone not to catch cicadas, because nothing is more important than health.

Don't get sunstroke or heat stroke just to catch cicadas, that's not worth it.

After receiving the order, Rendong walked quickly towards the group of people who were catching cicadas and said loudly, "Dad, Mom, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, please stop. The girl said that it's too hot to catch cicadas. It's important to keep your health and don't get heatstroke."

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked in Su Yue's direction with gratitude.

Liu Shan came over and asked with concern: "Why did you come back so late? You must be too hot. Big sister, help you go back to the house to rest. I will ask Xiao Cui to bring you fried cicadas and iced mung bean soup later."

Su Yue smiled and replied, "I went out to do some work and bought some supplies. The reason I asked you to catch cicadas in my yard is that the cicadas made me sleep poorly. If you are used to it, you don't have to go out in the hot sun to catch them."

After Su Yue finished speaking, she looked at Liu Qiang again, "Second Uncle Liu, if the temperature tomorrow is higher than today, we'll see if we can buy supplies in the evening. If we can't buy them in the evening, then we won't buy them for now."

Liu Qiang nodded and said, "Don't worry, young lady. I will keep an eye on it. I have also brought the supplies I bought these two days. Brother Song is arranging the supplies in a yard not far from you.

Having said that, the weather is really hot. It’s only April and we don’t know when it will end. Also, the prices have been rising day by day. There is one thing that has dropped in price, and that is charcoal. It is much cheaper than usual.”

When Su Yue heard that the price of charcoal had dropped, she said to Liu Qiang, "If charcoal is cheaper, you can buy more. It doesn't matter if the prices of various commodities are high. Just buy everything according to the list of materials I will give you. You don't have to worry about the money. Just tell me if it's not enough."

After chatting for a while, Su Yue couldn't stand the heat anymore, so she quickly returned to her yard.

She originally wanted to ask Nanny Yang to arrange the bath water, but as soon as she entered the yard, she saw Li Hui, holding a basket of jasmine petals, arranging for the maid to deliver the bath water to the house.

Li Hui turned around and saw Su Yue. She quickly bowed and said warmly, "Miss, you are back. Go take a bath. The bath water is ready."

When Li Hui saw Su Yue at this moment, it was like seeing the God of Wealth. Last night, she already knew that Su Yue not only returned the indentures of their family of three, but also gave them three thousand taels.

It is not easy to meet such a generous master these days. With the three thousand taels, she is willing to follow Su Yue even if her indenture contract is not returned.

Madam Yang smiled and said, "Sister, you brought the water just in time. The girl has been sweating since she went out."

Li Hui smiled and said, "Women naturally know how to keep themselves clean, especially those who are pampered like you. After going out, they will naturally take a bath when they come back.

Although the weather is hot, the water I asked them to prepare is still warm. After all, the girls are still young and they should not seek coolness.

And I just picked these jasmine flowers, they are very fragrant, I guarantee that the girl will smell good all day after taking a bath. "

After saying this, Li Hui handed the basket of jasmine flowers to Nanny Yang.

After taking it, Nanny Yang nodded with more satisfaction: "Well, sister, not only does what you said make sense, but you also have a heart."

Su Yue looked at Li Hui, smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Aunt Song, I'll have Rendong and Nanny Yang to serve me here, you should go and have a rest first." After that, she walked into the house accompanied by Rendong and Nanny Yang.

At this time, the temperature inside the house was completely different from that outside. There were three large basins of ice that were constantly emitting cold air. As soon as they entered, the three of them felt comfortable all over.

At this time, Honeysuckle spoke cautiously: "Miss, I have an unreasonable request, I hope you can agree to it."

It was rare for Honeysuckle to show this expression, and Su Yue couldn't help but feel curious, "Just say what you want to say."

After hesitating for a long time, Honeysuckle knelt down and said, "Miss, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. I would like to ask you to let my family have one or two basins of ice during the day so that they can sleep comfortably."

Su Yue helped Ren Dong up and said with a smile, "I thought it was something else, it's just an ice basin, of course it's fine.

After all, if you don’t sleep well during the day, it will affect your work at night. I also said that this ice cube is not made to sell, but to cool down.

How about this, from now on, your two families plus Uncle Song’s family can get three large blocks of ice every day, and the servants in the manor can only get one block per room per day.”

When Ren Dong heard this, tears sparkled in her eyes. She knelt down and kowtowed again, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, young lady. I will do my best to serve you."

Su Yue shook her head slightly, motioning for Ren Dong to get up. "We are master and servant, there is no need to be so polite. It's very hot now, and it's not easy for everyone. We should take care of each other.

Besides, you are so filial, if I don’t help you, wouldn’t it make me look bad?”

Honeysuckle wiped her tears and said, "The girl is not a bad person. She is the best and kindest girl in the world."
