I opened a restaurant in ancient times

Chapter 18

After all, it was summer, and in the terribly hot weather, there was no air-conditioned ice cream like modern times.

If you can have some ice, you can not only make ice drinks, but also cool down the prepared food. Ice watermelon can quench thirst and relieve dryness.

Thinking about it this way, there are too many uses for ice in ancient times.

"Guest officer, then you can take a look and just tell me what you want." Xiao Er stopped following him around the store, and went back to the shopkeeper. The two started chatting in a low voice.

Zhao Heng put aside his thoughts for a while, looked at the food in this store for a while, and finally bought a lot of things when he left, and spent all the money he earned today.

Although I have been busy all afternoon today, with a clearer plan in the future, I will no longer take the detours like now.

After paying the money, Xiao Er was helping Zhao Heng to carry the things to the cart. The money made by selling cakes today was just spent, and now Zhao Heng only has a few cents left in his hand.

Before it was noon, Zhao Heng put Zhao Haha in the drawer on the mezzanine of the trolley to prevent it from being exposed to the sun.

When he was about to leave the town, Zhao Heng saw a medical clinic on the side of the road. It was the small medical clinic that Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yuan had been to when they went to sell wild ganoderma. He parked the cart at the entrance of the medical clinic and picked it up. Zhao Haha entered the house.

There is always a faint scent of medicine in the medical hall. When the medicine boy saw someone coming, he took two steps to meet him, and said to Zhao Heng: "Does the guest want to get medicine?"

Zhao Heng nodded: "There is land here. Frost?"

Yao Tong didn't know so much, so he looked at the doctor who was in the clinic for help. Fortunately, there were few people in the store at this time, otherwise the doctor might not be able to see him asking for help.

The doctor attending today is a middle-aged man, with a white face and no beard, looking very elegant. He got up and looked here, and said, "Yes."

Zhao Heng took two steps forward and said to him, "Five dollars." Although the frost is good, it can only be used to cool down, not edible, so Zhao Heng said to him, "Five money." Heng didn't want to buy so much, just buy a little and it will last a long time.

That gentleman also quickly grabbed the medicine, wrapped it in paper and handed it to him. Zhao Heng took it with his hand, and then paid the money under the guidance of the drug boy, and then he went out with confidence.

At this point, he no longer had a penny on him, and before the hottest day, Zhao Heng quickly pushed up the cart and hurried to Dahe Village.

By the time he got home, it was already three poles in the sun. Zhao Heng was sweating all over his body. The blue shorts on his body were soaked with sweat on his back. Zhao Haha kept sticking out his tongue and exhaling to dissipate heat.

Previously, Zhao Heng carried water from the well outside and put it in a shady corner of the yard. It should be used for showering, but it was daytime, so Zhao Heng closed the door and washed in the corner at the back of the house.

He took off his coat and put it on a stone bench not far away, took a basin of warm water, and put it in Zhao Haha. It has grown a little more than when it first started, and it is much better than before.

The hairs on Zhao Haha's body were all black, and he couldn't tell whether it was dirty or not, but Zhao Heng decided to give it a bath first.

He reached out and felt the temperature in the water. Zhao Heng felt that the water temperature was neither too high nor too low, so he picked up Zhao Haha and put it inside.

These days, it has been having fun a lot. Zhao Heng is more worried about whether there are bugs on it. Zhao Haha is still a cub, and bugs such as fleas will make him very uncomfortable.

As soon as he got out of the water, Zhao Haha began to struggle, and the water splashed Zhao Heng's face, he reached out and wiped his face, and continued to put Zhao Haha in the basin to take a bath.

He held Zhao Haha with one hand and washed it with acacia with the other. Zhao Haha kept struggling, but he was unable to break free from Zhao Heng's hand.

After washing Zhao Haha back and forth, Zhao Heng breathed a sigh of relief, put Zhao Haha on the table in the room, and wiped it with an old cloth.

Zhao Haha threw it abruptly, the water droplets on his body splashed around, and he slapped Zhao Heng on his face again. Zhao Heng was helpless and could only wipe the water on his face with his hands.

Seeing that the hair on Zhao Haha's body was almost dry, Zhao Heng looked down at his clothes, which had been wet with sweat and Zhao Haha's bath water.

Putting Zhao Haha in the room, Zhao Heng took off his clothes and put it on the stool, and walked out to the eaves with bare arms. He poured Zhao Haha's bath water into the ground next to him, and the dry ground instantly became wet.

Zhao Heng took another basin of water from the shade and wiped his body with a damp cloth. This body is only in his teens, just at the age of growth, but there is also a talented father who reads and reads with him all day long, so this body is not very strong.

It happened that he had just escaped from Liyang City and suffered a lot along the way. When he was a child, his grandmother asked him to practice martial arts with his uncle for a period of time. Although his body was not strong, it was better than studying hard all day Students are healthy.

The well water that was placed in a cool corner turned into slightly cooler warm water. Zhao Heng quickly wiped his body, secretly making up his mind that he must exercise well in the future. This thin appearance is really not pleasing to the eye.

Most of the aesthetics of Dachu people are more inclined to the appearance of a scholar with clear eyes and handsome body.

However, Zhao Heng felt that it was better to be physically fit. In this ancient world, which was not seen in history, physical health would sometimes become a person's most important life-saving charm.

After washing all the sweat off his body, Zhao Heng finally felt that he was not so uncomfortable. He put on the prepared fur clothes and trousers, and after pouring out the water, Zhao Heng put the wooden basin in a shady corner, got up and went into the house .

Because the original owner fled, there were only two thin coats in the entire package. Zhao Heng put on his clothes and stretched out his fingers to tease Zhao Haha.

Zhao Haha wagged his tail, the dark fur was gradually drying, and the fur was gradually fluffy. The whole puppy looked like a black ball with fried hair. Zhao Heng couldn't help laughing at his thought, "Haha! His

stomach rumbled, and Zhao Heng suddenly realized that it was already lunch time. When he walked out of the house, he could see a few smokes slowly rising from the kitchen in the distance.

Zhao Heng let Zhao Haha play in the house by himself, and went to the kitchen by himself. The stove was like a steamer of hope, and the heat made people panic. Zhao Heng opened the door and window to ensure ventilation.

Add water to flour and knead into dough, then use a rolling pin to roll into thin dough cakes, cut the dough cakes into strips of noodles, boil them in a pot after the water boils, and run them in cold water. Add various seasonings and a few green vegetables, and a bowl of hand-rolled noodles is ready.

...

Chen Xiaoniu went home early this morning. As soon as he entered the door, he called out to his grandmother. His grandmother's ears are not very good.

Aunt Chen opened the curtain and came out of the back room, wondering why he came back so early today, he usually eats at the foreman's noon on weekdays, "Xiao Niu, why are you back at this time?"

Chen Xiao Niu laughed and said: "Mom, a lot of toll merchants came to the dock a few days ago. I made a lot of money. I was going to buy some things in Beishi today, and I happened to meet a new stall. The cakes I bought are delicious."

He took He took out the hand-grabbing cake wrapped in cloth and handed it to Aunt Chen: "You can try it, it's very delicious!"

When Aunt Chen heard this, her face instantly turned a little unpleasant: "Why do you buy some food? The money you earn is to be saved for you to marry a daughter-in-law!"

"Oh, mother, how old am I, no? I'm in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law! Besides, if you want me to marry someone I don't know, isn't that a grudge against someone?"

Chen Xiaoniu was particularly helpless, his mother told him a few days ago that there was a girl willing to marry him, and he was overjoyed For a while, I felt that my family was so poor that I could only marry a younger brother.

But I learned later that the girl didn't know whose child she was pregnant with, and the parents in the family couldn't find the child's father. They were afraid that the delay would ruin the family's reputation, and they hurriedly wanted to marry her off.

Aunt Chen naturally refused. Although the family was poor, there was no reason to support someone else's child. In the end, the marriage was over.

The girl's family didn't dare to say anything about it outside. After the Geng Tie was exchanged, the two officially broke off the marriage.

Chen Xiaoniu himself is not willing to marry a stranger. He told his mother that he wanted to find a daughter-in-law for himself.

Chen Xiaoniu was afraid that his mother would think about marrying a daughter-in-law again, so he called her quickly: "Mum, you have to try it, I brought it for you.

" No matter how much he will not listen, this child has his own ideas since he was a child, "How much money to buy it?"

"Eight pennies..."

"What! Is it so expensive? It's not that you don't know that our family is poor. Don't buy anything again in the future."

Chen Xiaoniu agreed, and he didn't know if he would listen to his mother's words, "Mum, try it while it's hot!"

This cake is still warm now. One bite, the crispy dough and the vegetable leaves and pickles inside, Chen Amu couldn't help but take one bite after another. After a while, the cake was gone in a small hand. .

She wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and said to Chen Xiaoniu, "Where did you buy it? I'll buy another one when I come back tomorrow.

" , he was still scolding him for spending money in the first second, and the next second he was going to ask him to bring another one.

Chen Xiaoniu reluctantly agreed: "Okay."

Aunt Chen got Chen Xiaoniu's promise, and happily served the prepared lunch.

Aunt Chen felt that after tasting the hand-cooked cake, she lost her appetite for these bland noodles.

Chen Xiaoniu had been busy all morning and was very hungry. After a while, he finished eating a bowl of noodles. He got up and took his mother and his empty bowls and cleaned them.
