Chapter 176 176. Ice Powder
Tonight everyone eats something that has never been eaten before - ice powder.

Shen Ruoxi asked Shen Ruohao to invite grandparents over, and at this moment everyone was sitting at the table, waiting for Shen Ruoxi to make ice powder for them to eat.

"There are sweet ones and some salty ones. What do you eat, grandpa and grandma?" Shen Ruoxi scooped the ice powder that had been cut into small pieces into a bowl, ready to add the second layer of ingredients.

Grandma Shen looked at the two bowls filled with ingredients: "I want sweet ones."

Shen Ruoxi scooped a large spoonful of melon, mulberries, and cherries onto the ice powder with a spoon, and then scooped a spoonful of honey water exuding a strong honey fragrance into the bowl: "Grandma, try it."

Grandma Shen swallowed her saliva: "Make everyone's food ready and eat together later."

Shen Ruoxi nodded: "Okay, what does grandpa want?"

Shen Zhen thought for a while: "I want something salty."

Shen Ruoxi made a bowl of ice powder first, then picked up some crispy pickles on the ice powder with chopsticks, scooped a spoonful of special spicy spice sauce, and handed it to Shen Zhen: "Grandpa."

In the same way, Shen Ruoxi made a bowl of ice powder for everyone: "Eat it now, there are still a lot, eat it before you make it."

Shen Zhen picked up the spoon and greeted everyone: "Eat, eat, try the new things made by Ruoxi."

Everyone bowed their heads and started to eat, and the sound of ziliuziliu echoed in the lobby.

The ice powder itself is cold and slippery like jelly, but after adding ingredients, it is sweet, cold and sweet, tender and refreshing, salty and slightly spicy, cool and smooth, all very delicious.

Xiao Kanger gorged on the ice powder, he wanted sweet ones, and he liked it very much: "Second aunt, it's delicious."

Shen Ruoxi looked at Xiao Kang'er: "Have a bowl later?"

Xiao Kang'er smiled sweetly: "Yes."

After Shen Zhen ate it, he praised it greatly: "Ruoxi, it's delicious, give grandpa another bowl."

"Okay." Shen Ruoxi took Shen Zhen's bowl and beat him for another night.

While Shen Ruohan was eating the ice powder, a thought suddenly popped up: "Second Sister, can this ice powder be sold?"

"You want to sell ice powder?" Shen Ruoxi was a little surprised, Shen Ruohan seemed to have a good talent for doing business.

Shen Ruohan nodded: "Yes."

Shen Ruoxi thought about it: "Don't worry, first make some ice powder for the villagers to taste, and see if everyone can accept the taste. If you can accept it, you can sell it again, understand?"

Shen Ruohan listened: "I understand, Second Sister."

Shen Ruoxi: "Eat first, we'll finish class later, let's discuss it."

Shen Ruohan: "Yes."

Grandma Shen suddenly said: "Ruohan, if you want to do this business, grandpa and grandma can help you. Now that the farming season is over, grandpa and grandma will be fine."

Shen Ruohan happily replied: "That's just right, with my grandparents helping me, I don't need to hire anyone for the time being."

Grandma Shen: "We are all a family. If you have something to say, you don't have to carry it yourself."

Shen Ruohan smiled and nodded: "Yes."

……

"Second Sister, Suhong, wait for me." Shen Ruohan chased her out from the house.

Both Shen Ruoxi and Shen Suhong turned their heads to look at her, Shen Suhong asked: "You want to go to the county with us?"

Shen Ruohan shook her head: "I'm not going to the county seat, you take me to the place where you picked tofu leaves yesterday, and I'll pick some tofu leaves and come back to make ice powder."

Shen Ruoxi: "Let's go."

Taking Shen Ruohan to the place where the tofu tree grows, Shen Ruoxi pointed the tree to Shen Ruohan: "This is it."

Shen Ruohan said happily: "There are many tofu trees like this growing in the mountains to the north. If you do business, you won't be short of raw materials."

Shen Ruoxi picked the tofu tree to Shen Ruohan: "I told you how to do it last night, have you forgotten?"

Shen Ruohan was in high spirits, and while picking the leaves, said: "I haven't forgotten, it's so simple, how could I forget?"

Shen Suhong smiled and said: "You have to save some for us at that time, we will come back to eat at night."

Shen Ruohan responded readily, "No problem."

After seeing that Shen Ruohan could distinguish tofu leaves, Shen Ruoxi took Shen Suhong to the county town. Many people will come back for consultation today, and it will be another busy day.

Shen Ruohan came over with a basket on her back, put the picked tofu branches into the basket, filled the basket full, and went home.

After Shen Zhen and Grandma Shen saw it, they came to help: "What can we do?"

Shen Ruohan showed the two of them a demonstration. She picked up a twig and picked the leaves and put them in a big wooden basin: "Grandpa and grandma, you just help me pick the leaves."

Shen Zhen nodded: "Okay, you can make cakes, we will call you when we finish picking."

"Yeah." Shen Ruohan went to the kitchen to make cakes with Shen Meihua and Shen Yun.

Shen Meihua and Shen Yun have officially become long-term workers in the family, with a monthly salary of one or two taels, which is a blessing in disguise for the two girls.

After hearing this, some girls in the village were very envious and wanted to work, but Shen Ruohan refused.

The business at home is not big now, so why do we need so many people?
After picking for an hour, Shen Zhen and Grandma Shen finished picking the tofu leaves, and then called Shen Ruohan over: "What do you do next?"

"Wash the leaves, wash them three times." Shen Ruohan went to fetch a load of water and came back, and then washed them by the dam.

"I'll do the washing, Ruohan, you'll make the cakes." Grandma Shen thought it was easy, so she took over the job.

Seeing that grandma had washed her hands and feet quickly, Shen Ruohan had no choice but to do other things: By the way, it's still cold, I almost forgot.

She hurried back to the kitchen and boiled the water.

Shen Zhen sat there with nothing to do, walked into the kitchen: "Ruohan, I'll light the fire."

Shen Ruohan smiled, and gave up the seat: "Grandpa, sit here and burn." With the help of grandparents, it is much easier.

"Okay." Shen Zhen sat on the stool and added firewood to the stove.

Shen Ruohan looked around, went outside and brought some firewood in, otherwise it would not be enough to burn: "Grandpa, when the water is boiled, just scoop the water into the wooden basin, I will use it later."

Shen Zhen nodded: "Okay."

Shen Ruohan looked at Shen Meihua and Shen Yun, they were doing very well, so she didn't intervene, and instead went to prepare the ice powder.

She only prepares one ingredient - sweet.

It was already early summer and it was hotter. The salty ones were not as attractive as the sweet ones, and more people ate sweet ones than salty ones.

Just like what Shen Ruoxi prepared yesterday, just prepare melon, mulberries, cherries, and honey water.

Peel the cantaloupe first, then cut it in the middle, take out the seeds, and cut into cubes.

No need for mulberries, just wash some.

It’s easy to remove the seeds from cherries. When you poke them with chopsticks, the seeds will come out. When it’s time to sell, it’s too difficult to remove the seeds without adding cherries.

Shen Ruohan prepared the ingredients, and the boiling water was almost cooled. She brought the wooden basin filled with cold water to the room, the leaves were also brought to the room, and the ashes and water were also brought to the room. She made ice powder by herself. This is for making ice powder The most important thing is not to be seen by others.
