The little sweetheart dressed as the ghost king
Chapter 159 Ice
Inside the house, Xiji was fanning himself with a cattail fan. Looking at the sun hanging high in the sky, he always felt that the current weather was a bit too hot.
It's just that he hasn't been in this world for a long time, and he's not familiar with the weather here, so it's not easy to draw conclusions.
He was thinking, if the summer here is always so hot, does he need to make some preparations, after all, he is still very afraid of heat.
If the heat continued like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on.
Just when Xiji was struggling, whether he should make ice or ask someone to dig a swimming pool.I saw Wan Lian leading a group of maidservants in, carrying a small basin of ice.
Looking at the ice that was not very pure but still exuding bursts of cold air, Xiji showed a bit of astonishment on his face, looking at her, he couldn't help but said: "There is ice in this mansion?"
Upon hearing Xiji's question, Wan Lian looked at the astonished expression on his face, assuming that he had never seen this thing in Yuan's house.After all, she had also heard of it. Although the Xi family is a landlord, compared to the palace, it can only be regarded as a small family.
It's just that although he knew this in his heart, he still didn't show the slightest bit on his face. Instead, he bent down, looked at Xiji and said respectfully: "My lord, these are all ice stored in the ice cellar in winter. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, the adults see that the young master loses his appetite every day and can't sleep well at night, so he asks the butler to fetch some for the young master to relieve the summer heat."
Hearing Wanlian's words, Xiji's face turned red immediately. He didn't expect that his intolerance to heat would be noticed by the Night King.At this time, when Wan Lian said it, she suddenly felt that her cheeks became hot.In order to avoid embarrassment, when she saw Wan Lian placing the ice not too far away from him, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this ice expensive?"
Wan Lian didn't know what Xiji meant by asking this, and after seeing the curiosity on his face, she said cautiously: "To the palace, this ice can only be regarded as a hair."
Hearing her words, he understood what she meant, because Ye Wang's mansion was rich and powerful, so the ice didn't seem so expensive.I just don't know if this bit of ice is a luxury for other people?
Wan Lian looked at his face and saw that he did not show a look of enlightenment, but instead frowned, looking extraordinarily tangled, after thinking for a while, she continued to speak cautiously, "This is also because the palace is not short of money. Jia, unless you are extremely wealthy, this bit of ice still needs to hurt your bones."
When Xiji heard what she said, she nodded as if she understood, and then continued to ask: "The common people, don't they need this ice in summer?"
When Wan Lian heard what he said, the smile on her face paused, she looked at him with some doubts, but she still answered honestly: "That's natural, just digging an ice cellar will cost a lot of money , not to mention the subsequent ice mining.”
After hearing this, Xiji muttered to himself, "That's really a pity!"
Thinking of the days when ice is always eaten in modern summer, and thinking about the scorching summer here, Xiji felt extremely sorry for the people here.There is not much food without ice, not to mention the delicious smoothies, but the cold drinks that have been chilled are a great comfort for people in summer.
Thinking of this, Xiji suddenly thought of one thing, that is to make ice with saltpeter.Not only can he produce enough ice for the mansion's own use, but he can even transport more out of the mansion to open a cold drink shop.
Recently, due to the popularity of paper and wine in the city, and the good law and order in the territory of the Night King, there have been constant businessmen coming and going, and the city has been really lively.If taking advantage of the hot weather at this time, the cold drink shop will be fiddled with, it must be very popular.
Thinking of this, Xiji turned over from the soft couch, stepped on the ground barefoot, and wanted to find the Night King.Let him help him find some skilled craftsmen to help him make ice.After all, he knew nothing about saltpeter except that he could make ice.If you need to experiment, it is more appropriate for a professional person to do it.
Seeing Xiji's bare feet stepping on the ground, Wan Lian, who had been waiting by the side, was taken aback immediately, knelt down immediately, put the shoes by his feet, and said softly, "My lord, why don't you put on your shoes first?"
Hearing Wan Lian's reminder and looking at the pair of shoes next to her feet, Xiji showed a bit of embarrassment on her face. She quickly got Wan Lian up and put on the shoes by herself.After putting it on, he was about to go to the Night King's study, but after taking two steps, he stopped again as if realizing something, with a troubled expression on his face.
"My lord, what's the matter with you?" Wan Lian asked in confusion as she watched his actions behind him.
Xiji bit her lips and looked at Wanlian, and said hesitantly: "My lord has been busy recently, if I bother him with small things, would it be bad?"
Wan Lian didn't expect that this was what Xiji was entangled with. In her opinion, Lord Ye Wang loves the young master so much, as long as it is the young master's request, he will never refuse to agree.Therefore, his worry was completely unnecessary, but when she looked at the young master and the sadness on his face, she couldn't say what she said.
So, she looked at Xiji who was still struggling alone, and said softly: "My lord, when your lord is busy, it's not okay to bother you with trivial matters. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait until dinner time to talk to your lord." Say it. That way, it won't delay your business, but it can also add a little topic to the dinner between you and your lord."
Hearing her words, Xiji's eyes lit up immediately, and then she looked at Wan Lian who was standing there quietly, and said happily: "You are right, this matter is not urgent anyway, I can wait for dinner tonight Time to tell the Night King as gossip."
After figuring this out, Xiji was no longer in a hurry, took off his shoes again, lay back on the soft bed, looked at the top of his head, and thought about what he could do after the ice was made.Smoothies are a must, iced tea drinks can also be arranged, and the popsicles are also indispensable.
Thinking about it, Xiji imagined his beautiful life in the future. Just when Xiji was thinking about what tools he needed, he heard the announcement from the guards outside, saying that someone had come to send a message. letter.
Xiji, who was still wandering, immediately became confused. How could someone look for him at this time? Could it be that the Night King has something to tell him?While muttering in her heart, she signaled Wan Lian to ask what happened.
After Wanlian received the order to leave, Xiji slowly got up from the soft couch, arranged her clothes, and after making sure that there was no flaw, she greeted Wanlian who came back with a smile.
As soon as Wan Lian came back, she saw the young master sitting upright on the soft couch. She was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted, saluted Xiji respectfully, and then said softly: "Young master, It is someone sent by the adults, saying that someone has offered fresh food, and the adults want you to go over and taste it together."
Hearing her words, Xiji tilted her head, with a bit of doubt on her face, what is the food, and she needs to go there now?But considering that the news was sent by the Night King, it should be correct.So Xiji was only puzzled for 2 minutes, then got up and sorted his clothes, and followed the guards who came over.
It's just that this time he was not taken directly to the study as usual, but went to a side hall where he hardly ever set foot.
Xiji looked at the door of the side hall, and became a little curious. He remembered that the last time he came here, it was the Night King who asked him to choose what he liked among a bunch of gifts.
Thinking of the previous experience, Xiji secretly had an idea in his heart, walked in calmly, and then saw the Night King sitting high on the main seat.The moment he saw him, he waved to him, "Come here."
Watching his movements, Xiji ignored the mountains of things in front of him, walked to the Night King in a detour, "My lord, what's wrong?"
The Night King looked at Xiji who was looking down at him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and then he stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms.
Xiji was a little confused by the action of the Night King, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he was held in the arms of the Night King like a child.Surrounded by the warm body temperature of the Night King, Xiji blushed involuntarily, glanced at the waiters around him from the corner of his eye, and whispered: "My lord, what are you doing?"
The Night King looked at Xiji whose cheeks were flushed, and suddenly felt that he had been blushing a lot in recent days. He didn't know why he felt that he looked so attractive, so he couldn't help but kissed him.
After the kiss was over, seeing Xiji, whose cheeks were blushing and about to bleed, and even her lips were getting brighter, she felt very satisfied, so she just said without haste: "The people below brought something, I guess You should like it, so I sent someone to call you."
Xiji blinked his big eyes when he heard his words, and looked a little confused because of the emotion just now, looked at the Night King and asked curiously: "My lord, what is it?"
The Night King looked at the curiosity on Xiji's face, and the corners of his mouth that were originally raised became wider and wider. Then he didn't answer his question, but clapped his hands as a gesture, and then saw the attendant standing beside him nodded. Nodding, he went straight to the middle of the pile of affairs, took out a box made of rattan, and carefully placed it in front of them.
Xiji looked at the box in front of him, with a little doubt on his face, and didn't know what it was for.Until Ye Wang hugged him with one hand, lifted the lid of the box with the other, looked at the cold interlayer inside, and then looked at the neatly placed lychees in the middle, and immediately exclaimed, "This is a lychee!" ?”
Ye Wang saw that the surprise on Xiji's face did not seem to be fake, nodded in satisfaction, looked at the lychee and said: "Someone sent this thing over today, I thought Jill would like it, so I specially asked you to come here Look. Jill, look, you like it?"
Xiji naturally likes this thing. In modern times, whenever the lychees were in season, he would usually buy a lot and make many drinks and dishes related to it.A few days ago, he thought about whether there are lychees in this world. It would be a pity if there were no lychees.
Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the Night King delivered this thing to him.Looking at the beloved Lychee in front of her, Xiji put her arms around the Night King, and couldn't help kissing him on the cheek.
After seeing himself kissed, Ye Wang turned his head to stare at Xi Ji who was looking at the lychee, thinking in his heart whether he should let the people below hurry up and send more things over.
It's just that he hasn't been in this world for a long time, and he's not familiar with the weather here, so it's not easy to draw conclusions.
He was thinking, if the summer here is always so hot, does he need to make some preparations, after all, he is still very afraid of heat.
If the heat continued like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on.
