Chapter 69: Addicted to technology and unable to extricate themselves

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and people are getting lazy.
Hua Qingxue opened the long-lost west-side house and looked at the house full of handmade soap. She later realized that she had been thinking about how to purify gunpowder recently, but forgot to clean the pile of soap.
At first, she wanted to make some money from handmade soap to support her family. Later, the emperor's reward came down, and Fu Tingye sent another box of gems. She usually lived in the military barracks.
If you don’t lose money, you can’t remember making money.
Hua Qingxue felt that he was really not the material to do business.
Using existing material conditions to make something, she will be very committed.
But after doing it, let her find a way to market... She will feel a headache.
However, so much has been done, and it is also a waste to put it at home. Recalling that the two brothers of Chen Ji’s store wanted to buy this batch of soap last time, Hua Qingxue picked up four or five pieces of soap on each shelf and prepared to go to Chen Remember.
But when she walked to the door, she felt the heat wave slamming outside, the sun was scorching the earth, and the midday sun dazzled her barely opened her eyes.
Hua Qingxue stood under the eaves and had no courage to walk out for a long time.
or……
When the sun goes down, go again?
She put down her hand and went to the kitchen. She took out a large green watermelon from the water tank. All the two halves showed red crimson flesh. She took it back to the house and digged it with a spoon.
The watermelon was soaked in cold water for a day, sweet and nourishing.
There is nothing more comfortable than eating ice-cold watermelon in summer...
Hua Qingxue was eating watermelon, listening to cicadas, a little sleepy.
She yawned, put down the watermelon, wiped her handle, and lay down on the mat-bed, ready to squint for a while.
...
Fu Tingye patted the door without any movement.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the guards guarding the sides of the courtyard door.
"she went out?"
"The Chinese girl has been at home and never went out."
Fu Tingye frowned and muttered to herself: "Why don't you open the door...sleeping?"
The guards looked at each other and asked, "General, do you need to open the door for you?"
It is just a wooden bolt behind the door. You can use a knife to gently lift the bolt off.
Fu Tingye shook his head, "No more."
He walked a few steps to the side, found a suitable place, jumped forward, and used his strength to turn over to the other side of the courtyard wall.
...
The yard was silent, only the trees in the tree kept crying.
Fu Tingye walked into the main room and saw half a watermelon on the table, and a woman lying behind the screen.
It turned out I was really asleep.
Fu Tingye smiled in his eyes.
He walked lightly around the screen and saw the scene before him, but he couldn't help but stunned.
The woman on the bed was sleeping soundly, wearing only a short water-green cotton and linen gown and an extremely thin nine-point bloomer.
Two slender arms were exposed to the outside, and the neckline was greatly opened. Due to the side lying position, the chest was exposed to a large white skin, and the deep groove was extremely attractive.
In particular, she still loosed her hair, a piece of green silk was laying on the bed, and a few strands were wrapped around the waist around her neck, making her look extra charming...
Fu Tingye only felt a fire burst into flames! Burned down to the abdomen!
He didn't expect Hua Qingxue to be so dressed at home... so cool!
damn it! How can this woman come so wildly! What if someone is seen? !
Fu Tingye’s straight man had a cancer attack, and he wished he would wake up Hua Qingxue now and give him a hard lesson!
but……
Seeing her sleep so well...
Fu Tingye felt thirsty.
His gaze slowly walked on Hua Qingxue's delicate body, and finally fell on her moist red lips.
Tolerated and tolerated, still unable to hold back, bowed his head to cover the fragrant and tender lips, only felt that this place is more thirsty than watermelon.
He admonished himself that it would be just a click, but he would forget to return, kissed and kissed, and went deeper...
...
Hua Qingxue felt himself crushed by a bear in his dream.
She awakened at once, unconsciously reached out and refused, and pushed it a few times without pushing it, only to be confused by the reaction, it was Fu Tingye.
The heat and sweat on the man made her feel uncomfortable, sticky and hot.
Hua Qingxue was cool for a while, and after being tossed by Fu Tingye, there was another sweat on his body.
"General..." She exhaled with a partial face, her hands pressed against Fu Tingye's chest, "Don't...it's so hot..."
"It's quite hot." Fu Tingye loosened her, straightened her upper body, unbuttoned her clothes, and then pressed her back with her shirtless.
Hua Qingxue was dumbfounded at his actions.
In fact, Hua Qingxue's concept is very open in that matter, as long as the other party is the one she likes, she has nothing to be unwilling to do.
But she doesn't want to be in sweat...
"General, it's really hot...you, please let me go..." Although she thought so, her tone was too soft and she didn't have any strength.
Fu Tingye nibbled along her thin white neck, wandering around the collarbone, he seemed to want to go down again, but hesitated.
He was afraid to go on, and he would really be unable to help her.
But to stop? He could not bear the soft and delicate touch...
Fu Tingye was sweating and panting, not knowing whether to hold back or to be anxious.
He suddenly let go of Hua Qingxue and walked to the table in a few steps. He picked up the half of the watermelon and ate it. He was fast and anxious, as if he was thirsty.
Hua Qingxue sat up, combed her long hair diagonally into a long braid, walked to the side of the basin to soak the veil, wiped the sweat from her body, and then re-wet the veil, walked to Fu Tingye and helped him wipe the sweat.
"How did the general come today?" she asked Fu Tingye carefully while wiping the sweat on her back.
"Come and see you." Fu Tingye ate the rest of the watermelon in a few bites, turning around and not criticizing her, "How can you dress like this in the house?"
Hua Qingxue looked blank, what did she wear like? All the places that should be covered are covered...
Fu Tingye looked at the few strawberry seals that came out of her collarbone, and the original tone of righteousness was inexplicable, "In short...It is not allowed to dress like this in the future!"
Hua Qingxue stared at the eyes, very speechless, retorted in a low voice, "I just bare my arms, but the general is naked."
Fu Tingye: "..."
Just a moment ago he couldn't help himself, so he took off his jacket.
Fu Tingye reached for the clothes on the bed and was captured by Hua Qingxue.
She said disgustingly: "It's all sweaty, how do you wear it? I'll wash it for you. Anyway, the sun is big outside and it will dry in a while."
Having said that, he threw Fu Tingye's shirt into the basin and picked up the basin to get out.
Fu Tingye grabbed her wrist with one hand, "Just wash in the house!"
His face was ugly and he said, "You have to put on clothes to go out!"
"No one in the yard..."
"In case a gangster suddenly breaks in, wouldn't it be seen?"
"..."
Hua Qingxue felt a deep generation gap... didn't she just wear a sleeveless gown? As for being so nervous?
"But I have to go to the kitchen to scoop water?" She was also a little annoyed.
"I'm going to scoop." Fu Tingye turned and walked away.
Hua Qingxue saw that he had really scooped the water, and he was angry and funny again.
Why is she showing such a man?
After a moment, Fu Tingye returned with a bucket of water.
Hua Qingxue couldn't help but because of his serious expression, thinking, although sometimes annoying, but sometimes... think he is so cute.
She rubbed her clothes without saying a word.
Fu Tingye sat by the bed and looked at her. After a while, he whispered: "Waiting in the three futian days, Zhao Sheng will send someone to bring ice over. You will bear with you for a few more days. It is bad for your body to use ice too early."
It seemed to be a polite reminder that she should not be too exposed.
Hua Qingxue listened and felt fresh, and asked, "Where is the ice in summer?"
Fu Tingye was stunned, "Naturally in the ice cellar."
"Ice cellar?" Hua Qingxue remembered that there was such a custom in ancient times. She asked excitedly, "Is the ice saved in winter sealed in the ground, and then taken out in summer to use?"
In ancient times, such a custom was called "hidden ice". First dig the cellar, lay the grass felt underneath, and then put the cut ice cubes one by one until the cellar was full, and then cover it with a layer of grass Felt, covered with thick soil to seal the cellar, so the ice cellar is complete.
Fu Tingye nodded and didn't understand what was so exciting for Hua Qingxue.
Hua Qingxue thought about another thing.
"The ice stored in this way should be very limited. If you want the soldiers in the barracks to use ice, is it difficult to satisfy?
Fu Tingye laughed, "There are 100,000 troops in Qingzhou Camp. I want everyone to use ice, I am afraid that no one can supply them."
Hua Qingxue asked: "Will the soldiers in the camp be very hard during those three days?"
"No matter how hard it is, it is carried over slowly in this way. If it is afraid of heat in summer and cold in winter, what kind of soldier will it come to?"
Hua Qingxue thought for a while and said slowly: "But now the weather is so hot, it is too hard for the firearm camp to rush to work for a day...so, let me make a batch of ice first and give the firearm The craftsmen from the camp use it. If the amount is large, they will be sent to the camp."
Fu Tingye didn't respond for a while, "...make ice?"
"Yeah." She said with a smile. "Aren't we collecting saltpeter recently? Saltpeter absorbs a lot of heat when it is dissolved in water, which lowers the temperature of the water and freezes! Anyway, we now have a lot of saltpeter, just for ice."
Fu Tingye knew her and was not interested in jewelry and clothes. Instead, she became extra spirited when she talked about them.
And he especially likes her look as bright as her eyes.
Fu Tingye usually does not stop what Hua Qingxue wants to do, but asks her inexplicably: "Isn't the saltpeter used to make gunpowder?"
"It's okay. After dissolving saltpeter into water, you can use the cooling crystallization method or the evaporation crystallization method to put the saltpeter back and reuse it."
Hua Qingxue said, screamed and looked at Fu Tingye, "General, I let the glassmaker you helped me find has fallen? Purification of gunpowder and evaporation and crystallization of saltpeter all require a distiller. Glass is absolutely essential."
As long as the piece of glass can be solved, Hua Qingxue feels that her technology tree is about to light up.
