Chapter 136: Goat Milk
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Xueqin thought about it and drank it with a smile.
“It’s really good.” Chu Dongyu looked at the milk in surprise. “Sister-in-law, your cooking is really good. Is that pastry made from milk?”
“Not bad. This milk is good for people. Not only that, but goat’s milk is also good. After the child drinks it, it’s more nutritious than eggs.”
Ye Muyu reminded him with a smile, “Brother Dongyu, the children’s ages are most suitable for drinking goat’s milk or cow’s milk.”
“This milk is indeed delicious, but cows are too precious.” Chu Dongyu was a little regretful. “Moreover, doesn’t goat milk have a strong smell?”
“It’s easy to get rid of the smell of goat’s milk. I read in the books and the doctors in the county said that almonds can be used to get rid of the smell.”
“Almonds are a little expensive, but you can use jasmine tea leaves to remove the smell. Jasmine tea is considered flower tea, and it grows in the ground.” As expected of the tea county, there were many tea leaves in Nanchang County. In fact, other than planting vegetables and grains, every household also planted tea leaves in the mountains. There were many counties around Nanchang
County, but Nanchang County was not the only one suitable for growing tea.
Therefore, in Xingshui Village, where there were more paddy fields, tea leaves were rare. Even so, tea leaves like jasmine tea leaves were very easy to find. Chu Dongyu’s eyes lit up when he heard that. “Thanks for your reminder.”
“It’s nothing. It’s just for the sake of the child.” Ye Muyu also wanted to raise a sheep or a cow, but unfortunately, she could not do it alone.
It was better to let the villagers raise it. It would be easier for her to buy goat’s milk when the time came.
Seeing that Chu Dongyu was talking about it, Chu Xueqin coughed lightly to interrupt his curiosity. He said helplessly, “Dongyu, don’t waste your sister-in-law’s time. If you really want to raise sheep, come and ask sister-in-law when the time comes.”
“Hey, right.” Chu Dongyu quickly stopped his chatterbox and said with a silly smile, “Sister-in-law, I might need to trouble you in the future.”
“It’s okay. If you need anything, come and ask me anytime.” Ye Muyu had a
good impression of the fifth branch of the Chu family. There was nothing she could not agree to such a small matter.
“Sister-in-law, then we’ll leave first. If you need anything, just come to the field and find us.”
Chu Xueqin was a bit more composed and pulled Chu Dongyu away.
Ye Muyu sent the two of them away before turning back to the central room.
“Ziluo, are you alright?” she asked softly.
“Mother, I’m fine, but I stopped that person from coming in. I saw that you didn’t seem to like her, so I didn’t let her in.” Chu Ziluo smiled and asked for credit.
Ye Muyu was touched, but she taught her seriously, “Ziluo, in the future, you only have to do what you can. This time, you were lucky and only hit your arm.” “In the future, if you meet such a person, just call me. Don’t fight them head-on, understand?”
“What if there’s a ruthless person who doesn’t care about your safety and barges in and hurts your face?” Ye Muyu said seriously.
Chu Ziluo was shocked and her face turned pale. “Mother, I was wrong. I won’t resist it next time.”
“Yes, good child. Mother knows that you are helping Mother, but you are much more important than those bad people. In the future, no matter what you do, you must remember that you must be wary of others and only do what you can.”
“Especially when you’re weak, you have to protect yourself first, understand?”
