June on the lunar calendar is the hottest month of the year, and He Xiner is afraid of heat. She stays at home almost every day. She writes short stories in the morning to coax her little cousin, and when she takes a nap in the afternoon, her mother pulls her to learn how to be a female celebrity.
, I went to my cousin’s room in the evening to practice calligraphy.
Cuizhi and Yuanyuan also come over to play from time to time. The little sisters sit in the pavilion drinking scented tea, eating seasonal fruits, reading short stories, chatting and laughing, which is very comfortable.
When the pavilion was first built, stones were specially laid to raise the foundation for easy ventilation. There was also a ten-foot-tall plane tree outside the house. Its dense branches and leaves were like a big natural umbrella, blocking the harsh sun and giving the pavilion
Hold up a green shade.
After a few days, the weather became more and more muggy, with no wind and no rain. It was so stuffy that people couldn't breathe. Cuizhi and Yuanyuan didn't dare to visit the house anymore.
He Xiner fanned her every day, but the heat was still unbearable.
"Oh, Dabai went to take a dip in the river again. I really envy him~"
The child Wang Jinling also held a fan and shook it. He was so hot that he lost his usual energy.
"My cousin will get you some water. You go and take a dip in the tub."
"Okay, okay!"
Because He Xiner could only carry half a bucket of water each time, someone had to go twice to carry a bucket of water. He poured not even a third of it into the bathtub, but he was sweating profusely due to the heat.
On weekdays, her mother helps carry water, but now her mother is taking a lunch break, so she doesn't want to trouble her.
"Hey, this water is getting hot under the sun. Cousin, go and wash it."
Alas, where is the promised bath?
How to soak this little water?
The villain Wang Jinling complained silently, but her cousin was sweating profusely, and she was unwilling to tire her cousin anymore.
When her cousin entered the bathroom, He Xiner took a deep breath and ran to the house to get a folding fan to fan herself.
She had to find a way to escape the heat, otherwise she would die of heat in these dog days.
After letting out a few breaths of suffocation, He Xiner closed her eyes and thought and thought. Hey, she really came up with an idea. She immediately became energetic and jumped up, "Haha, I'll start tomorrow, baby."
I won’t be afraid of the heat anymore!”
This time I am happy, my mood is cheerful, and I feel less stuffy.
Although her method may not necessarily succeed, there is hope after all, right?
So, He Xiner, who had been lazy for many days, felt the urge to cook something delicious again. She asked her cousin to clean up and change clothes, and went to the kitchen happily.
Then, at dinner time, there was a new dish on Lao Ye's dinner table.
The thin translucent cold skin is mixed with cucumber shreds, mung bean sprouts, chili oil, pepper water, balsamic vinegar, fine salt, coriander and sesame oil. It is red, green and translucent, and it is tempting to look at it.
"This dish must have been cooked by the second girl."
The weather was too hot, and adults and children had no appetite. Even though there was constant supply of herbal tea at home, no one had much energy.
Lao Yetou was the same, too hot. He originally thought of just having a bowl of porridge, but he found a dish he had never seen before, and he immediately became energetic.
"My guess was right. I just made this this afternoon. It's called Liangpi. One is with chili oil and the other is without spicy."
"Haha, the second girl has more tricks. First she has herbal tea, and then she has cold skin. Hey, when I hear the word "liang", I feel happy."
"Then try it quickly."
"Okay, okay, try it, try it."
Ye Laijin smiled and gave his father half a bowl of cold noodles. Ye Laiyin also quickly served rice porridge to his father. Old Ye moved his chopsticks with a smile on his face.
“The dough is so chewy and the taste is amazing. It’s sour, spicy and refreshing.”
Eating cold skin in summer is delicious and appetizing, no one will dislike it.
He Xiner was busy talking all afternoon. She was sweating profusely in the kitchen, which was as hot as a sauna, and she almost fainted.
But she was very happy to see that everyone liked to eat it. This chapter has been completed!
