389 Lucky Baby
“This is good! Perfect!” Liu Guixia couldn’t stop smiling.
Xue Dafu was also grinning from ear to ear.
“To think that I said something that even a pig would know,” Yu Hongyan laughed.
“You’re not the only one,” Liu Guixia laughed, “We actually thought so too. Who would’ve thought that a blanket could keep the ice from melting for a long time? It must be Jiang Yue’s mother watching over her from Heaven.”
!!
“It’s also because Jiang Yue’s memory is good. Her mother told her to hide good things in the blanket and she really did it. Otherwise, who could have found this?”
Li Hehua carried Jiang Yue and let her sit on her arm. She looked at Jiang Yue’s small face with motherly love. Her voice was still as if she was afraid of scaring Jiang Yue, and she laughed very, very softly, “It’s all thanks to Jiang Yue again. Jiang Yue is really a lucky baby.”
Xue Yifu, who was standing beside Li Hehua, was not very good with words, so he only knew how to chuckle and echo, “Yes, a baby’s blessing.”
If this was seen by someone who did not know the situation, they would probably think that Jiang Yue was Li Hehua and Xue Yifu’s precious daughter.
When no one was paying attention, Xue Sifu winked at Xue Yan. It was as if he knew when to give credit where credit was due.
Xue Yan wanted to say that it was all Jiang Yue’s credit, but he lied to Sifu. Did his Sifu really think that he was the one who asked Jiang Yue to try it out?
When they came out of Jiang Yue’s room, Wufu asked, “Hey, where’s Sanfu? Wasn’t he in the courtyard just now? It’s getting dark, where did he go?”
“He went to the river to wash up,” Xue Dafu replied. “He’s always like this during this season every year. It’s happening again this year.”
In Xue Wufu’s eyes, Sanfu washing up in the river was equivalent to going for a swim. Xue Wufu was worried to death. “Even I won’t dare to go alone. The river is so deep, I would only go if there was someone with me! No, I want to go too!”
As he spoke, he quickly went to get a cloth towel and a set of clothes, and also went to the river.
He even ran speedily.
“Let’s eat first. We don’t need to care about them.” Liu Guixia smiled and called everyone to eat.
Seeing Liu Guixia and the other’s relieved faces, Jiang Yue had an idea, but she still asked Xue Yan in a low voice, “Is Sanfu good at swimming?”
“Yes.” Xue Yan nodded. “So is Wufu’s. Sifu’s swimming skills are mediocre. Yifu and Erfu can’t swim well. They can’t go into that kind of deep water, they might end up drowning.”
“Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, come and eat.” Li Hehua shouted from under the shed.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan stopped the conversation short.
It was dark, but the moon was bright, so they could see their surroundings. However, the oil lamp was still lit at home. Because there were mosquitoes, he took some mugwort sticks.
A lit mugwort stick was placed between Jiang Yue and Xue Xiao’s feet.
Not only could the ice be made, but it could also be stored. They could make popsicles and sell them in town. They could also sell shaved ice and iced sour plum dessert. Xue Dafu and the others were very happy with the new news. It was a rare occasion for Xue Sifu to sit at the dining table and chat with Xue Dafu and the others while eating.
Everyone’s smile seemed to be showing. Everyone was in high spirits.
When Jiang Yue heard Xue Sifu mention going to town to buy a new blanket the next day, she finally spoke, “Sifu, I have an idea.”
“What is it? Tell me!” Xue Sifu immediately turned around and looked at her.
Xue Dafu and the others also turned to look at her.
Xue Yan also glanced at her subconsciously, then he continued to eat his meal slowly and silently. He knew what she was going to say.
