C14 sugar snack

She was in a hurry to make money, so she had to get the ice out. This was another experiment. One had to know the ratio of saltpeter to water in order to form ice. All of these required an experiment to succeed.

The place where Steamed Bun fell had to be dug.

When he was about to go down, Chen Nianran had wrapped the two treetops around the protruding rocks so that it would be convenient for him to bring the rope up later. After all, this trap was still a bit too much.

The saltpeter was a type of crystal, it was also a type of rock that couldn't be easily excavated. Fortunately, these things grew along the stone pit.

Only after struggling for nearly two hours did Chen Nianran finally dig out all these treasures. When she went up, he was also afraid that the villagers would see him digging saltpeter to break their beaks, in order to cover the saltpeter with a thick layer of leaves, and then cover it with Mushroom Amorphophallus s before returning home.

To be honest, when they returned home, they were actually seen by Luo Xiaohua, who was always glaring at them and their family from next door.

Luo Xiaohua glanced at the Mushroom Amorphophallus in her basket, frowned and said, "It's a dirty thing."

Chen Nianran endured all of her anger for a long time, she just could not understand why this woman would keep looking at her own family and not like her. However, since it was a dog barking, she directly carried the basket home.

He didn't expect that when he returned home, the little Fifth Sister had already prepared all the food. The ready-made Mushroom Amorphophallus s were cooked by the little Fifth Sister. Although the smell was a little faint, at least she could still cook.

"Sis, you must be tired. I'll go fetch some water for you." Little Sister, who had just woken up, immediately went to fetch water when he saw that she had returned.

If she didn't stop the Little Sister from being attentive to her, she wouldn't stop anything that the little family could do. After all, there was no need for a daughter of a poor family to be pampered.

Xiao Baozi was still sleeping, that lazy thing, it was understandable that it had been tossed around in the middle of the night, and it was still lying on the bed.

"In a while, we will still go up the mountain to dig Mushroom Amorphophallus. Little Sister, you stay at home and guard the buns. You want to come up the mountain after eating, so you have to watch over him. "

Little Sister was depressed when she heard this and pouted her lips in protest. One had to know that she loved to go up the mountain the most. It was much more fun than staying here.

After eating with the little Fifth Sister, they went up the mountain. When they went out, they saw the two children of the Sister Fang family looking for Steamed Bun and Little Sister to play with.

The two little guys looked around timidly. They were very curious about their new neighbors, but they didn't have the guts to come and play with them.

Chen Nianran smiled and greeted the two of them, then indicated that they should go in and play with Little Sister.

The moment the two little fellows were approved, their faces lit up with excitement.

After returning from the mountain, the first thing Chen Nianran did was to check her own experiments.

Unfortunately, the water with the saltpeter was much colder, but the ice did not freeze. It seemed that the consumption of saltpeter was not small in order to freeze it.

Adding some more saltpeter, Chen Nianran could not help but exclaim, if she did not find this free saltpeter, she would not dare to conduct such experiments.

After all, saltpeter was also quite expensive.

It was no wonder that in the modern age, there were people who said that if someone wanted to eat iced food, they had to be rich to be able to do so.

Because saltpeter was free, Chen Nianran did the experiment without feeling bad. At night, the bucket had turned into a bucket of ice.

That night, she stirred up some rice milk and put it into ice. The little guys ate it all up. Unfortunately, there was no ice powder. Otherwise, if he stirred a bowl of ice powder, the taste...

"Sis, to be able to drink ice in the summer, this is my first time." Fifth Sister smacked her lips, looking at her in envy. That worshipful expression in her eyes made Chen Nianran sweat profusely.

Xiao Baozi shouted even more loudly, "My wife, I still want to drink. I still want to drink.

"You can't drink anymore. Steamed Bun, we'll take you to your house tomorrow morning. I'll give you some ice powder tomorrow morning."

Tomorrow, she decided, she would set up a stall in the town.

In this Banana Town, because of the main road of business between the north and the south, there were many guests that passed by.

In such a hot season, one could imagine how the business would turn out if they sold some ice-cold goods.

Of course, she had already thought about what she would sell. It was impossible for him to do everything himself.

She could buy someone else's ice powder, porridge, watermelons, grapes, nectarines, and other fruits. Then she could squeeze out the necessary ingredients from the aunt's shop, and the summer snacks would be considered as a success.

Thinking of this, Chen Nianran felt that even the silver was waving to him.

When Xiao Baozi heard that he was not allowed to live with his sister, the three of them, he pouted.

The little guy cuddly walked in front of her. "My wife, don't chase me away. I'll help you do your work. I'm no longer being naughty. Without your permission, we would never go to those broken caves, or those smelly mountain trenches. "

How fun it was to be up there, fishing in the river, catching crabs in the ditches, catching chirping bugs in the mountains ? She went home and listened to her mother's blabbering everyday. She was also restrained from going out to play ? Oh! Steamed Bun wasn't happy.

"Sis, my wife, don't drive me away. "Well, there's no man in the house, so I'll stay here and guard it. If there's a bad guy coming, I can beat him up." As the little guy spoke, he puffed out his chest and clapped his hands.

He looked like a man who could block anything he wanted.

It was a pity that her body was too weak. No matter how she looked at it, she felt like this child needed her protection.

Chen Nianran laughed and lifted his small face seriously, "Alright, I know Xiao Baozi is a nice guy. However, my sister doesn't live here for long. Steamed Bun has a mother and a father, do you not miss them at all? One had to know that his parents loved steamed buns the most. "Think about what's good for you, is that the first time they think of you?"

With this, Steamed Bun thought of what was delicious in the house. It was his parents who thought of him first. And his brothers, they also gave him delicious, fun things to eat. Speaking of which, Steamed Bun had been here for so long. Occasionally ? I still miss my parents and brothers a little.

Seeing Xiao Baozi holding onto his fingers as if he was in a difficult situation, Chen Nianran quickly tried to advise him.

"There's more. Steamed Bun, you have to protect your older sisters. That's good news." But what do you use to protect us now? Sigh, Steamed Bun may be a man, but no matter what, you're ? He's just a man who hasn't grown up, right? "If that bad guy or those thugs who want to bully my sisters really comes, do you think that steamed buns can really block those bad guys?"

Steamed Bun's face turned bitter. He somewhat sadly admitted that he was still a little girl, "About this ?." This... It seems to be true, but Steamed Bun really doesn't want to go home! "

"Listen to big sister. Steamed Bun's going. It's not just to go back." You're the little man of our family now, so Steamed Bun has to carry the responsibility and safety of our family. This time when you go back, you have a mission. It's not like this, where you only know how to play all day. You have to do well in your studies. If you can get the top scholar in the future, you can go and take the top scholar as an official. With Steamed Bun as the official to protect us, those bad people wouldn't dare to bully our sisters. Also, when Steamed Bun has time, he needs to learn some self-defense skills from you. I heard that you have quite a good master in martial arts.

Xiao Baozi looked at his beautiful elder sister who was seriously trying to persuade him. In his eyes, she was her own wife, very beautiful, a woman who really knew how to cook. However, like she said, Steamed Bun was still too young, so he couldn't protect her wife. The only thing he could do was listen to her wife's words.

"Alright, let's go to my house. I want to be a good master of both martial arts and culture in the future. "Hmph, at that time, let's see who dares to sell off my wife. Also, the two of you, I'll protect you two when the time comes."

Looking at the three pairs of bright and expectant eyes, Steamed Bun suddenly felt extremely heroic. For the first time, he had a sacred responsibility ? to learn and succeed in protecting the people he wanted to protect in the future.

Only after a few years would Steamed Bun understand that even if he became an official, he might not be able to protect his loved ones. Only by continuously climbing upwards and controlling something important could you protect the people and the things you want to protect ? Of course, this was all a story in the future.

After thinking through Xiao Baozi, Chen Nianran heaved a sigh of relief. This child was usually a bit too naughty, but he also had a smart mind.

If he did not guide her properly, he was afraid that he might accidentally fall into the wrong path in the future.

The second day, Chen Nianran woke up in a hurry before the chickens had crowed.

She had already tested it out with a small amount of water and how much saltpeter would be put in before it turned to ice.

So today, he only needed to carry the saltpeter on his back, and carry the Mushroom Amorphophallus that he sliced yesterday to his uncle's house.

It had to be said that with her aunty and her family doing business in the town, it was much more convenient for her to do things.

If it wasn't for this, just carrying furniture and such things on her back would have left her frowning.

When it was still early in the morning, the sisters hastily ate some food, packed everything up and set out on their journey.

From her to the little Fifth Sister, Little Sister, the three sisters all carried heavy burdens.

Xiao Baozi also wanted to carry him on his back, but unfortunately, he didn't have that many backpacks at home, so Chen Nianran didn't want him to be too proud of it.

They were still two hours away from the town. At the beginning, Xiao Baozi was running happily, and occasionally saw squirrels that woke up early in the morning. He was even interested in chasing them down and throwing a few stones at the town.

Slowly, the longer the load, the harder it was on his small arm.

Holding his breath back, he looked with embarrassment at Chen Nianran and his sister, who were carrying heavy bags on their back. Seeing that all three of their faces were covered in sweat, the little fellow forcefully swallowed the words that he wanted to ask for help.

Chen Nianran had seen through his actions. In fact, she could have casually brought over the heavy object in Steamed Bun's hands. However, she didn't want to get too used to this child because she wanted to make sure that the child wouldn't give him the goods.
