Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Even in modern times, some people still use planes to make smoothies, but they are modified planes, not planes used for carpentry.

Planes have existed since ancient times. Since they can be used to thin wood, they can also be used to thin ice.

The only difference is that the carpenter wants the wood left after thinning, while she wants the smoothie that is shaved off.

Xiao Guoer asked Shun'er to buy a few new and clean planes. Although Shun'er had a lot of questions in his mind and couldn't think of what she wanted the planes for, he didn't say anything and started running errands again.

He had gotten used to Xiao Guo'er's sometimes unusual thoughts, and also got used to Xiao Guo'er asking him to run errands from time to time, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

After all, the young master sometimes has to obey her orders, so he, a servant, has to obey her even more.

I don’t know why the young master listens to her so much. He is completely obedient to her.

Shun'er thought, the young master treated Xiao Guo'er so specially, maybe she would really become his master in the future.

Xiao Guoer washed the planer that Shuner had bought with clean water, then disinfected it with alcohol, before taking out a piece of ice to try it.

As the blade scrapes across the ice, finely chopped slush falls off.

She picked up a small fruit and put it in her mouth. It was indeed as soft and refreshing as the one she had tasted in modern times.

There were not many guests in Jinxiang Tower at the time of Shen, only a few people, and those who were idle in the kitchen were ordered by Shun'er to shave ice.

There is strength in numbers, and soon the stove was covered with small bowls of smoothies.

Xiao Guoer poured the milk in one by one, and cut the bought seasonal fruits into small pieces and dotted them in between, red, green and yellow, which looked refreshing and pleasant.

Xiao Guoer set aside a few bowls, found a waiter from Jinxianglou, gave him half a dollar, and asked him to deliver these icy bowls to the small courtyard in Zhuxian Lane so that Yingniang, Yueya and Zhou Pozi could also have a taste.

Then he packed a few bowls of smoothies in a lunch box and returned to the lottery shop.

The rest would be left to Shun'er to deal with on his own. Anything that the waiters at Jinxianglou couldn't finish could be sold or given away.

Tang Jingchen in the spice shop looked at the bowl of food that Xiao Guoer brought to him. The combination of milk and colorful diced fruits was pleasing to the eye, but it was not something rare.

But when he scooped it with a spoon, he noticed something strange. There was clearly something mixed in the milk.

He looked up in confusion and saw Xiao Guo'er's big watery eyes looking at him expectantly. She urged him, "Try it quickly and see if it tastes good."

Tang Jingchen's heart suddenly softened. He decided that no matter how this so-called "ice bowl" tasted, he would make it look delicious and not let her down.

He scooped up a spoonful of white milk mixed with something like sand and a piece of diced fruit and put it into his mouth.

The cool taste instantly dispels most of the hot summer heat, and the whole person feels a lot cooler, as if taking a mouthful of ice, but the delicious taste is incomparable to simple ice cubes.

The dense granular texture, the mellow milk flavor mixed with the sour and sweet taste of the fruit all melt in your mouth.

Tang Jingchen felt that he was just worrying too much and there was no need for him to comfort her deliberately. This "ice bowl" was really delicious!

It’s not that it is so delicious, but its refreshing taste is very special in this hot summer and has a unique charm.

"This fine sand-like substance is actually ice?"

"Yeah, it's made from the ice you gave me."

Xiao Guoer was pleased by his surprised expression. There was no need to ask any more questions. Just by looking at his expression, she knew that he was very satisfied with the ice bowl.

Xiao Guoer didn't ask, but Tang Jingchen was generous in praising her, "Xiao Guoer, you really give me surprises all the time!"

"Hehe, it's all thanks to your ice." Although Xiao Guoer spoke modestly, the expression on her face was proud, as if to say, look how great I am!

Tang Jingchen praised her again, "You are amazing. You can think of making such food with ice."

"If things like this are sold, I think they will definitely be very popular." Tang Jingchen is a real businessman and immediately thought of the business opportunity.

Xiao Guoer looked at him with admiration, quite agreeing with his idea, "You can just sell it in Jinxianglou. Ice is scarce here, so it doesn't matter if the ice bowl is priced higher. It's hot in summer, and this ice bowl is a new thing, so naturally people will be happy to spend money to buy it."

Tang Jingchen asked in surprise, "What do you mean by 'ice is scarce here'? Where is ice not scarce?"

Xiao Guoer secretly said to herself, "Oh no!" She always relaxed unconsciously when she was with Tang Jingchen, and this time she actually let the cat out of the bag.

"I mean, ice is scarce at this time of year in the summer." Xiao Guoer was afraid that he would ask further questions, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "You can also launch some summer limited dishes, such as cold noodles..."

As expected, Tang Jingchen no longer worried about the ice issue, and all his attention was focused on the cold noodles in Xiao Guoer's mouth.

How come she always has so many weird and wonderful ideas?

A few days later, Jinxianglou launched new dishes with high prices. The wealthy officials and businessmen wanted to try them out of curiosity.

As soon as I tasted it, I found it fresh and interesting, as well as refreshing and heat-relief. I couldn't help but praise it again and again.

A kind of food called "ice bowl" became popular among the wealthy and noble families in the capital city, and another kind of food called "cold noodles" was also quite popular.

Later, gradually, at gatherings of young ladies, the snacks and fruits that were usually used to entertain guests were replaced with "ice bowls". In this hot summer, eating a bowl of cool ice bowl can not only save face, but also cool down and satisfy your appetite. Isn't it a wonderful thing?
