late july

The weather has become very hot and stuffy. Tang Wuyu has internal strength, warm in winter and cool in summer, and he is not afraid at all. Lian Qi looks very envious. When he is free, he likes to rub Tang Wuyu's body.

It is also because of this that the number of certain activities has also risen linearly, and the time is not short.

It's just that after a certain activity, Lian Qi's body must be sticky, so she can only be hugged by her senior brother to take a bath.In the end, even the children in the family thought that Lian Qi was not in good health recently and was always sick.

After each time, Lian Qi would gnash her teeth, and she would never get close next time!

However, every time after swearing, between the scorching heat and Tang Wuyu's cold body, Lian Qi would always choose the icy cold body for nothing.

Then I can’t blame others for not letting go, ┓(`)┏

Tang Wuyu was also very scheming, and he didn't know how he used his internal strength. When Lian Qi hugged him, it always felt like he was holding a popsicle. If it wasn't for the breathing and heartbeat, Lian Qi He even thought that what he was holding was a real popsicle, and it was the kind that wouldn't melt.

After learning from the pain, Lian Qi recently began to study how to make ice cubes.

Lian Qi can cool down with Tang Wuyu, but the rest of the family can't, especially Lian Rui, it's only half a month before the autumn test.

After he came back from the academy every day, he had to stay up late to study. Even if it was cooler at night, he would easily be too hot to be distracted.

Like the parents of countless candidates in the world, Lian Qi is also very concerned about Lian Rui's current state, and she wants to make ice cubes because of Lian Rui's confidence.

However, when it comes to Lian Rui, there is one thing that makes Lian Qi very depressed.

Because some time ago, when Lian Qi wanted to reach out and touch Lian Rui's head, he suddenly realized that Lian Rui had almost caught up with his height.

Lian Qi's height in this life is currently only 1.6 meters eight, not even 1.7 meters, but now his body is only 16 years old, and he can grow longer. His requirements are not too high, as long as he can grow another twelve Centimeters, he is satisfied when he reaches 1.8 meters.

In the previous life, Lian Qi was 1.7 meters tall. Every time he reported his height, he would say 1.8 meters. He hoped that this time it could be the real 1.8 meters, not a fiction.

※※※

After making up his mind, Lian Qi began to search in his memory.

At this time, I have to thank the various time-travel novels that were popular back then, otherwise Lian Qi really didn't know how to make ice cubes.After all, in modern times, every household has a refrigerator, and ice cubes are easy to get. Who would care about how the ancients made ice cubes?

In fact, the method of making ice cubes in ancient times is still very simple, as long as there is one thing, that is saltpeter.

It is convenient and quick to make ice with saltpeter. Except that it cannot be eaten directly, there is no other problem.

Moreover, after the saltpeter is dissolved in water, the saltpeter can be re-extracted by cooling crystallization method or evaporation crystallization method and then used for recycling without any waste.

So the question now is how to find saltpeter?

Moreover, even if there was saltpeter in this world, would it still be called this?

This is really a headache.

Going back through memory, Lian Qi couldn't help but start to thank the time-travel novel he had read. The author should be a researcher, and he even wrote clearly the places where saltpetre often appears.

It's just that the place is a bit embarrassing.

Most of them are pigpens, stables, corners next to toilets, this... this...

Seeing Lian Qi's hard-to-look face, Tang Wuyu kissed him on the cheek, "What's wrong?"

"Brother!" Lian Qi grabbed Tang Wuyu's hand, his face was full of righteousness, "Let's go out and collect saltpeter together!"

"Nitre? You want to make ice?"

"Brother, you also know this thing?" Lian Qi was surprised, how could Tang Wuyu know this?

Tang Wuyu nodded, "It's written in medical books."

"Oh," Lian Qi narrowed his eyes, stood up from Tang Wuyu's body, and looked down at him, "Then why didn't you tell me before?"

If there were ice cubes, he would still need to spend all day... all day being...

Tang Wuyu didn't speak.

Of course he couldn't tell Lian Qi. If he said it, wouldn't his welfare be gone?He is not stupid.

Seeing that Tang Wuyu had turned into a saw-mouthed gourd again, and thinking about all the obscenity and mischief some time ago, what did Lian Qi not understand?

Lian Qi couldn't help but gritted his teeth when he thought of the shameful gestures he had agreed to in order to be cooler.

Really want to jump up and fight.

But Lian Qi held back this thought with great difficulty. If he really rushed forward, there would be no need to think about the consequences!

But if he didn't do anything, it would be hard to get rid of the "hate" in his heart at this time. After thinking about it, he could only "cut Tang Wuyu in pieces" with his eyes.

But it's a pity that the one who was "cut" didn't understand Lian Qi's anger at all. After all, in Tang Wuyu's eyes, no matter how Lian Qi looked at him, he seemed to be inviting... cough cough cough .

After staring, Lian Qi also felt relieved a lot.

After all, when he was actually doing that, it wasn't that he didn't feel happy. In terms of technology, even Lian Qi had to admit that his senior brother had made rapid progress.

For the first time, he was lying on the bed for several days. In the next few times, he could clearly feel that the time of pain at the beginning was getting shorter and shorter, and the pleasure was more and more. The most enjoyable At that time, Lian Qi even forgot Jinxi and Hexi.

A real child can be taught.

Of course, Lian Qi refused to think about another possibility of reducing pain!Strictly refuse!It is absolutely impossible to loose something!

※※※

And when Lian Qi and Tang Wuyu "confronted"——

"Bang bang bang!" There was a regular knock on the door.

Lian Qi was a little puzzled, "Who could it be on a hot day?"

It should not be Zhuge Xiao, he has just left for a few days; it is also unlikely to be Lian Rui, he will come in directly; the four little ones at home are all playing in the backyard, so who else could come?

While wondering, Lian Qi quickly walked through the hanging flower gate and opened it.

"Ajun, why are you here?" Lian Qi immediately showed a surprised smile when she saw the people outside, "Come in, we haven't seen each other for a while!"

"I heard that Ayu has been found, so come and have a look." Ming Jun was still holding a basket of duck eggs in his hand, "I remember you were talking about not enough duck eggs at home a while ago, this is autumn deer. Try the wild duck eggs you brought back when you went hunting."

Lian Qi looked into the basket, there were about thirty or forty of them, she couldn't help being amazed, "Brother Qiu, how many wild duck nests did you dig out?"

"It's been saved for about four or five days." Ming Jun said, "But now the ducks don't lay as many eggs as in spring, so you'd better eat them quickly. The weather is so hot now, if you leave them for a long time, you can't return them." Ducklings will hatch!"

"Okay!" Lian Qi readily agreed, and asked casually, "Why didn't Brother Qiu come with you?"

Ming Jun's expression changed involuntarily, "I didn't let him come."

Lian Qi led Ming Jun to the main hall, and with a wink, asked Tang Wuyu to make tea.He himself sat down with Ming Jun, "Ah Jun, did you quarrel with Brother Qiu?"

Ming Jun didn't expect Lian Qi to ask so straightforwardly, his body stiffened for a while, and he smiled wryly, "A Qi, is my performance so obvious?"

Lian Qi shook his head: "No, I just think that Brother Qiu won't let you go out on your own. Besides, your complexion was not very good just now, so..."

Ming Jun nodded, then leaned back, feeling a little slumped.

"That's it."

"Ah? What kind?" Lian Qi didn't understand.

Ming Jun turned to look at Lian Qi, "Did Brother Tang stop you from going out and take care of everything? Even if it's just a long trip, he will try all kinds of reasons to stop him. If he can't stop him, he must be with you?"

Lian Qi frowned, "That's not true, could it be that Brother Qiu..."

Ming Jun nodded, with a look of exhaustion on her face, "I always feel like he treats me like a three-year-old child."

"Here, Ah Jun, haven't you had a good talk with Brother Qiu?"

"Why not?" Ming Jun closed her eyes, "I married him at the age of 15, and I didn't think anything was wrong at the beginning, but now it has been a year and a half, and my stomach has not moved. In the past few years, there should be no movement. I feel that there are some..."

Lian Qi's tone was a bit unpleasant: "...so, he dislikes you for not being able to have children?"

When it comes to having a baby, Lian Qi is actually in the shadows

In Lian Qi's previous life, Internet communication was developed. Lian Qi also knew about women's childbirth, and even watched a popular science video about pregnancy and childbirth.

Although the popular science video very objectively presents how a person combines sperm and egg cells, gradually becomes an embryo, and grows into a child.

But Lian Qi was still frightened by the delivery process, and took advantage of the holiday to go to her mother's grave, earnestly kowtowed three times, and burned a lot of paper money.In order to thank his mother for her tireless efforts to give birth to him, she did not give up halfway.

In the previous life, medical technology was so advanced, and girls would suffer so much when they became pregnant, let alone now?

What's even worse is that, except for Lian Rui, the other three members of the Lian family can have children.

Also, the relationship between him and Tang Wuyu has been quite a lot lately. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a night and night party, so...

Lian Qi swallowed, thinking that she should make some preparations now?For example, come up with a condom or something?

But, are there rubber trees here?

※※※

"No, he didn't dislike it, but I was a little anxious." Ming Jun shook her head, "Maybe it's because I was too anxious and cared too much, that's why I couldn't get pregnant. So, I just thought, temporarily Do a little business and divert attention. But when talking to him..."

"He refused without hesitation?" Almost without thinking, Lian Qi gave the final answer.

Ming Jun nodded, "Yes, Qiulu refused so simply, I still felt it was incredible at that moment."

"Then you now?" Lian Qi asked tentatively.

"I'm going to find some jobs I can do in Jinshi County first, and earn some money. As for when I will go back... I haven't thought about it yet." Ming Jun sighed, "Maybe I am too dissatisfied. , put it away..."

"You're right!" Lian Qi immediately interrupted Ming Jun and said to him seriously, "You have your own ideals, you don't want to stay at home as a rice bug, and you want to earn money with your own hands. It's a normal thing! Don't think that you are looking for guilt. You are giving..."

In the middle of the speech, Lian Qi hurriedly braked, otherwise the next sentence of contributing to socialist construction would be confusing.

Mingjun's eyes gradually glowed, "Aqi, you...do you really think so? I have told my mother about these things, but..."

"Of course!" Lian Qi said with certainty, "You don't need to be so troubled, it's normal to make money by yourself!"

"They all say that I don't know my blessings when I'm in the midst of blessings, but I always feel that after cleaning up the house, I feel a little flustered and want to find something to do." Ming Jun rubbed the center of her brows as she spoke. , obviously this question should have troubled Mingjun for a long time, but he never said it.

In the eyes of outsiders, Mingjun and Qiulu are really a good couple. Qiulu is good at hunting and farming, and Mingjun is both beautiful and capable.However, who would have thought that every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite.

"Ajun, what kind of work are you going to find?"

"This, I haven't thought it through yet." Speaking of this, Ming Jun hesitated, "Maybe it's just washing and sewing clothes?"

"That's too tiring, and you won't make much money." Lian Qi frowned, disapproving.

Ming Jun lowered her head again, and sighed, "Otherwise, I'll go to the dental clinic tomorrow to see if there is any work that suits me."

Teeth...

Thinking of Shunchang Dental Clinic who forcibly took Wan Xia away from the funeral, Lian Qi was not at ease fearing that Ming Jun would be coaxed into signing some overlord contract in the end.

"How about we make something and sell it ourselves?" Lian Qi suddenly thought of the issue he had discussed with Tang Wuyu before Ming Jun came, making ice.

"What?" Ming Jun was curious.

"Make ice cubes." Lian Qi said mysteriously.

"It's not winter, how do you make ice cubes?" Ming Jun just finds it inconceivable, don't ice cubes only appear in winter?

"You will know soon!" Lian Qi was very confident.

※※※

"Go and ask where the ground outside the pigsty, stables, and latrines is covered with hoarfrost in autumn?" Ming Jun frowned, "Why?"

"That layer of hoarfrost is the saltpeter I'm looking for." Lian Qi explained.

"But its location..." It's really...Ming Jun is a little disgusted.

"It doesn't necessarily have to be those three places, as long as it's a place where hoarfrost oozes out in the crisp autumn weather!" Lian Qi added, and if we are outside the wall, we are not inside the wall. To put it bluntly, it is not dirty. "

Ming Jun looked up at the big sun in the sky, "But the weather is so hot now, it has nothing to do with the crispness of autumn, how can we determine where it is?"

"Then ask more people!"

Ming Jun: "...Who are you asking?"

"Beggar." Lian Qi said confidently.

"What?" For a moment, Ming Jun felt that she had heard it wrong.

"The beggar should be one of the people who knows the most about Jinshi County. Walking around the streets, he should see a lot of strange things."

After listening to Lian Qi's explanation, Ming Jun had to admit that what he said was actually quite right, "and the cost of consumption will be much lower then."

"Right, that is it!"

※※※

Although Jinshi County has become much richer under the governance of Juzhi County, some beggars can still be seen.

Lian Qi looked around, and finally walked towards a little beggar, described the location and appearance of the saltpeter in detail, gave him a few copper coins, and told him that as long as he found one place, Will give him some money.

The little beggar looked very clever, and ran away immediately after hearing Lian Qi's words.

It was also because he ran so fast that Lian Qi even doubted his own judgment for a moment.

However, the next day, the little guy brought specific news.

Lian Qi also kept his promise and gave the money to the little guy.

"If I find this kind of place in the future..."

"Then you just come to me," Lian Qi also gave her promise, "but I also said my ugly words before, if I find out that there are false news in it, then this kind of work will not be done in the future. "

The little beggar also nodded, "I know!"

The little beggar took Lian Qi and Ming Jun to the place where Baishuang had been found, and then Lian Qi and Ming Jun dug!

After digging a basket full of soil and going back, many people on the way paid attention to them.

But Lian Qi held on very firmly, and Ming Jun didn't have the same psychological quality as Lian Qi for the time being, so she could only cover her face with her sleeves and hurried back to the Tang residence.

Soak the clods in water, filter, dry half of the filtrate, and boil half of the filtrate, and white saltpeter crystals appear.

"It's done!" Lian Qi looked excited, "I can make smoothies from now on!"

Ming Jun didn't know what smoothies were, but seeing the crystals that had formed, his eyes were also full of joy.

"How do I use this?"
