Summer is so long, how did ancient people escape the heat without air conditioning?

First of all, similar to today's air conditioning is the ancient natural air conditioning well, that is, digging a well in the middle of the house. This is not an ordinary well, but a deep one. Because of the low temperature, the temperature of the whole room can be adjusted, which is equivalent to our current central air conditioning. At the same time, it can also act as a refrigerator. You can tie the basket with a long rope and put the melons and fruits in the basket, so that you can eat cool and delicious fruits.

Another convenient way is the ice room, which is real ice, but ordinary poor people can't afford it. Because it is difficult to preserve in winter, only the rich can use it, but obviously it is cooler. Working people can't afford to buy ice, but there are fruits with low natural temperature. The ancients even slept with wax gourd. Low-temperature wax gourd can be recycled. If it's not cold, change it to cold. If it's not hot, you can eat it. Although it may taste a little strange.

Stewed wax gourd in summer also has the effect of relieving summer heat. There is something similar to wax gourd, and there is a nice name called Mrs. Zhu. It's also very cool and comfortable. It's actually a cylinder made of bamboo, which can be used to hold things. The bamboo pillows we use today are the same. When summer comes, people begin to sleep with Mrs. Zhu, which is more comfortable and cooler than real women.

Besides, I also ate the famous ancient ice cream. This kind of ice cream is made of milk, ice cubes, red dates and fruits. Just like cold porridge, the emperor likes it very much. It is said that Kelpolo tasted delicious and brought it back to his own country. This is the prototype of Italian ice cream. Old poor people have no money to eat ice cream, so they can only do the opposite in another way, that is, eat hot soup, and after eating it, they will sweat and sweat will cool for a long time. It can be seen that no matter what class they are in, they are full of wisdom of life.
