"Is there an icehouse in Kaiyang County?" Qin Yao asked curiously.

Thinking of all kinds of ice drinks before the end of the world, Qin Yao couldn't help swallowing secretly.

A piece of ice in midsummer, it doesn't feel too comfortable.

Liu Ji nodded, "Yes, at the Ice Village just outside the city, the river freezes every year after the snow falls. The government has people chip the ice back and put it into the icehouse. The ice stored last year can be used until this autumn."

Then wait until winter to continue to save, save and continue to use, and so on.

But seeing Qin Yao's excited look, Liu Ji had to pour cold water on her.

"The government icehouse there, the ice cubes are only for the use of the nobles in the city. Don't worry about us ordinary people. If you have a lot of money, it's enough to treat me to a bowl of sugar water shop."

As he said that, he swallowed his saliva unsatisfactorily.

Qin Yao scoffed at him, "Dream!"

When she passed by just now, she saw the brands of those drinks, with the word "Snow" on them, starting at [-] cents a cup, which was enough to buy the three catties of pork in her hand.

Liu Ji had expected that she would react like this, so he turned his back and made a cut.

When she turned around, Qin Yao had already led Lao Huang out.

The husband and wife looked at each other, and then remembered an embarrassing question.

Two people, one horse, how to ride?
Thinking of some kind of possibility that would be unfavorable to him, Liu Jidang stepped forward to grab the rein, and tentatively asked:
"Madam, you won't let me run behind a horse, right?"

Qin Yao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and asked directly: "Can you ride?"

Liu Ji shook his head sincerely.

He would like to, but he must have that condition at home, right?

Qin Yao shook her head, "Get on the horse, sit in front."

"Ah?" Liu Ji subconsciously raised his hand to indicate their heights. Qin Yao was a head shorter than him.

If she sits in the front, can she still see from behind?

The raised hand was opened heavily by Qin Yao, and Liu Ji gasped in pain.

It turns out that you can see it!

Because when he accelerated to run, he was so scared that he just lay on the horse's back and hugged the horse's neck tightly.

There was a whining sound of strong wind beside my ears. Just when I was about to speak, a mouthful of dust came in, and my buttocks almost split into four pieces.

He wanted to change his posture slightly, but a warm body pressed down, and a scent of soap locust floated into the tip of his nose——

Liu Ji suddenly froze!

Later, later, he could no longer remember how he returned to Liujia Village.

I only remember that a voice came from behind: "We're here, get out."

Then, he was mercilessly thrown off the horse and stood there blankly, looking at the burning sunset on the horizon, which was red and pink and very beautiful.

One person and one horse walked against the sun, the woman's back was straight, her body rose and fell with the horse's back, and her high ponytail swayed lightly from side to side, as if nothing in the world could restrain her.

He subconsciously stretched out his hand, trying to grab something, but he couldn't grab anything. He could only watch the heroic figure walking away.

"Guru~"

Liu Ji swallowed subconsciously, then shook his head violently, and when he looked up, he still felt that the person on the horseback was glowing with a pink glow.

He raised his hand and gave himself a gentle slap!

This time the pink light is gone.

Qin Yao stopped for a while in the open space of the village well, but she didn't see any children in the family.

It may be that the business of bayberry soup has not been done, so I went home early.

Qin Yao smiled helplessly, turned around and shouted: "Liu Ji, hurry up!"

Panting, Liu Ji trotted up, raised his head and complained, "I have two human legs, and you have four horse legs. You didn't say wait for me, but you urged me!"

Qin Yao frowned. Why did she feel that the tone of this good-for-nothing man's words today sounded coquettish?
Forget it, don't care, reach out, take away the baggage from him, put it on the horse, and go to Ma's house.Without his luggage, Liu Ji didn't move much faster. He had to stop and whistle at every villager he met along the way.

When someone complimented him and called him Talented Liu, he responded shamelessly.

After such delay, Qin Yao got home to take off the saddle and feed the horse before he entered the house.

He smiled as soon as he walked in, which shows that he received a lot of good words along the way.The bastard that everyone called him a beater in the past has now become a talented person in people's mouth, which is flattering.

"Huh?" Liu Ji scooped up water and prepared to wash up. He glanced at the kitchen and other rooms, but no one was there. "Where have Dalang and the others gone?"

Qin Yao threw a handful of high-quality fodder to the horse, clapped her hands and walked in through the back door. There was no one in the backyard.

"Maybe it's somewhere to play." She guessed.

When Liu Ji saw her coming, he subconsciously took the basin in front of him and said, "Madam, wash yourself."

After doing this, he slapped the back of his hand in annoyance to make you feel bad!

Qin Yao saw his weak 'struggle' in her eyes, chuckled lightly, twisted her handkerchief and wiped her face and neck.

Then he took off his coat and hung it on the clothes drying pole in the yard. Wearing only a thin linen coat, he stood in the corridor and blew in the air at the door.

Liu Ji was dumbfounded by such vigor.

Qin Yao squinted over, "Why are you staring at me? It's getting dark, go out and find your child!"

The familiar days of oppression began again. He had just entered the door and he hadn't let go for even a quarter of an hour.

Pushing Lai Lai in his heart, he had a docile smile on his face, "Hey, I'll go out and have a look."

Just as they were about to go out, the excited conversation of the four children came up from the bottom of the mountain.

Soon, four familiar figures appeared at the gate.

Seeing their father and mother, the twins were startled at first, and then ran in, eager to share their joy today.

Sanlang said: "Dad, my second brother sold many bowls of bayberry soup!"

Siniang said: "Auntie, Auntie, the bayberry soup we made was sold out immediately. The eldest brother and the second brother went up the mountain to pick wild bayberries again. We will make more to sell tonight!"

Liu Ji was confused, but he still coped with it and said, "Yes, yes, Dalang, Erlang, let dad see if you have grown taller."

Erlang rolled his eyes, "How can it grow so fast in ten days, and I'm not an onion."

Da Lang showed respect to his own father and came forward with a heavy basket of sour wild bayberries and asked Liu Ji to make some gestures.

Qin Yao didn't expect that the bayberry soup for several people had been sold out, and the business was so good that they had to make a second batch.

Without hiding his surprise, he looked at Erlang, "How much do you sell for a bowl?"

"Two cents a bowl." Erlang put down the basket he was carrying. There was a basket full of red bayberries, but it was heavy.

Then he said enthusiastically: "Mom, you don't know how much everyone likes the bayberry soup we make. In time for the autumn harvest, they are willing to spend money."

In the morning, Qin Yao went out on the front foot, Erlang and Dalang on the back carried clay pots containing bayberries, Sanlang and Si Niang took bowls and spoons, and went out.

Dalang said he was going to Murai, and Erlang brought bayberry soup directly to the field and peddled it on the ridge.

As soon as I opened the jar, someone smelled the smell and came up to ask.

At that time, Dalang said anxiously that two bowls would be one bowl, but he didn't expect that he would immediately ask for two bowls.

It is said that the weather is too hot and the autumn harvest is too bitter, so spending it once in a while is no big deal.

It may be a good thing, the four brothers and sisters walked through an acre of rice fields and delivered them directly to the hand, first gave them bayberry soup on credit, and then went back to the man's house to get the money.

As the morning progressed, the cans in the basket became lighter and lighter, and they were all sold out before I knew it.

Erlang pulled Qin Yao into the main room, looked at her expectantly, and then took out a linen bag from his arms.

"Wow!" Pour it on the dining table!
Dozens of copper coins fell down, making a pleasant crisp sound.

Thirty bowls of bayberry soup were sold for a total of sixty coins.
