Chapter 271 Goat Milk

She looked at Dafu and Erlu on the side, and her heart was aching.

She was reluctant to bear her youngest son, but in fact, Dafu and Erlu were the ones she was most reluctant to bear.

The youngest son was just born, so there must be few feelings for her, and the child may not survive. She is more worried about Dafu and Erlu.

Now she understands that love really depends on support, not born with blood.

It's like the three children are her own, but because of the length of time they get along with each other, they have deep and deep feelings. This may be cruel, but it is a fact.

And Qian and Zhou Yin are like Xiao Qian and Man Bao.

Even deeper than Xiao Qian's and Man Bao, because Qian's mother-in-law passed away a few years after giving birth to Zhou Yin. Unlike Man Bao, Qian and Xiao Qian shared her feelings for her mother together.

Seeing that Mrs. Chen's spirit was a little better, Mrs. Qian put the child down, pressed the swaddling clothes and said, "Mi Tang is not too hungry, I will feed him a little later. If possible, I'd better go and ask for milk, it's hot when I come back. Give him a drink, and in a few days, you can try to feed him some rice porridge."

Chen's and Chen's mother listened very carefully.

Qian was not the one who gave birth to the most children, but the one who survived the most children. Naturally, they listened carefully.

Man Bao immediately said, "You can also use goat milk."

Qian looked down at her, and Man Bao also raised his bright eyes to look at his mother, and said, "Mother, goat milk is also milk, and it is very nutritious."

That's right, she frowned and said, "Goat's milk is a bit stinky."

"You can boil it with tea leaves and put a little bit of it," Man Bao gestured, "The little nephew will be able to eat milk by then, and there is no need to look elsewhere."

At present, there are no newborns in Qili Village, so they have to go to other villages to ask for milk.

Even if you find another mother, you may not be able to get it, so if you can buy a sheep back, it is naturally the best.

But a sheep that happens to be milking may not be so easy to find.

Chen shi hesitated for a moment and then nodded, without doubting Man Bao's words.

One is because Man Bao is a scholar, and the other is because Qian Shi did not refute it.

When Mother Chen saw that they had finished talking and the child was quiet, she said enthusiastically: "The sweet wine is ready, let's go out and have a bowl."

He also invited Man Bao and Bai Shanbao, and said with a smile, "You are children. I'll make an egg in sweet wine and boil it for you, okay?"

This is a reward, and of course not every child has it.

Bai Shanbao doesn't think there is anything in eggs, and Manbao is the master who eats eggs every day, and asks, "Will it taste better when beaten eggs?"

After receiving a nod from Mother Chen, he agreed, and followed him to the kitchen with great interest.

Zhou Hu was also in the kitchen, and someone from the village came to help, but he would occasionally go into the kitchen to take a look.

When Mother Chen saw him, she took the opportunity to propose to buy a milking sheep, and she glanced at Man Bao who was waiting on the side, and said in a low voice, "I think this is a good idea, goat milk is also milk. Are you fed?"

Zhou Hu heard the words and said without thinking: "Then I'll ask someone to look for it. If there is one that is breastfeeding, we'll buy one."

Although a sheep is expensive, Zhou Hu is not unable to afford it. The big deal is that he will sell it later when he needs the money urgently.

Just a sheep that happens to be milking is not easy to find.

Zhou Hu was a little worried, "Mother, what do you do when you haven't bought sheep these days?"

Mother Chen sighed, "Let's feed the rice soup first, Aunt Qian fed a little in just now."

Zhou Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Shanbao listened and pulled Manbao's hand. Manbao also heard it. He was wondering if he should buy some milk powder for them in case of emergency. When she saw Bai Shanbao pulling her, she turned to look at him.

Bai Shanbao whispered in her ear, Man Bao's eyes lit up, and after the two of them had boiled eggs in sweet wine, they ran out hand in hand.

Mother Chen wanted to talk to them, but there was no chance to get in touch with them.

Bai Shanbao took Manbao back to look at his sheep, then took it out from the fence, and said happily, "Let's send it to him."

"You still need tea."

Bai Shanbao gave her the rope, "Wait, I'll get it."

Bai Shanbao ran away and ran back soon after, but was followed by Liu Shi and other servants.

Liu Shi glanced at the sheep they were holding and said with a smile, "Newborn children can't eat tea."

She said: "You are so old, you can't sleep even after eating tea, let alone such a little baby."

Man Bao widened his eyes: "Then what should we do?"

"Boil the goat's milk directly. If you really can't drink it, put two drops of vinegar in it and have a look."

"Does vinegar work too?"

Liu Shi looked at Man Bao's puzzled appearance and nodded with a smile.

Of course, there is a little bit of usefulness, but it is not as obvious as tea leaves.

The two children had an idea, and they were content to go out and cross the river with the sheep.

The servants of the Bai family were accustomed to it and did not stop him. They turned around and reported to the old lady.

Only then did I know that the old lady already knew, and she even agreed.

Things in the village are never a secret, Liu thinks, it is a good thing for a child to have a benevolent heart. They are just a sheep, and their family can’t afford it.

But for the people in the village, a sheep is too precious.

When the two children appeared in the courtyard of Zhou Hu's house with the sheep, everyone was stunned.

Mother Chen's eyes lit up, and she wanted to kneel down for the two children. She didn't pay much attention to Bai Shanbao, but now she couldn't help but look at him. Only then did she realize that he was wearing different clothes from all of them. very nice.

Zhou Hu also knew that this sheep must belong to the Bai family, because the old Zhou family had no sheep.

So he also stared blankly at Bai Shanbao.

Bai Shanbao tucked the sheep's rope to him, and waved his little hand: "My sheep is milking, so use it before you buy it."

Mother Chen thanked Zhou Hu repeatedly and urged Zhou Hu to accept it.

Zhou Hu hesitated for a while before taking the things and said, "Don't worry, young master, I will send it back to you when I buy the sheep."

Bai Shanbao doesn't care much about this. What he wants to see more is the child, and he asks curiously, "Is he still hungry?"

As soon as Chen mother heard it, she immediately took the sheep aside to milk the goat, ready to try their recipe, but when she squeezed out the milk, she realized that there was no tea.

Man Bao said embarrassedly, "Although tea leaves can remove the taint, it seems that little babies can't eat it, so put some vinegar to see?"

Mother Chen agreed without hesitation. In her opinion, it would be good to have goat milk. As for the taste, she didn't think much about it at this time.

This sheep produces a lot of milk. The Bai family had already squeezed it once in the morning, but Mother Chen still squeezed out a lot.

She put it in a crock pot, boiled it on the fire, carefully dripped a few drops of vinegar, and then covered it and boiled it.

Man Bao reminded, "You need a little fire."

Mother Chen smiled at her and asked, "Little lady, does your family often cook goat milk?"

"No, I haven't cooked it in my family," Man Bao pointed at Bai Shanbao and said, "His family has cooked it, and the cheese is delicious."

"Yeah," Bai Shanbao regretted only now, "We won't have any cheese to eat in the future."

Mother Chen didn't dare to speak immediately, for fear that the young master of the Bai family would regret it. After all, he was still young, and the children always wanted to come out.

She didn't know what cheese was, but it sounded like it was made of milk.
