Xie Wanxing was particularly happy after moving into the new home, because she finally had her own independent space. She could move things out of the space without restraint, and she could also lie down in the space at night. Although she had to come out after lying down for ten minutes, she was satisfied with that.
She originally wanted to move the mattress in her bedroom out, but the bed in the bedroom was custom-made to be wider and longer, and the mattress was too big to be moved outside. She could only remove the mattress in the guest room and move it outside. In order to make it less conspicuous, she found a piece of cloth in an inconspicuous color and asked Cheng Hui to sew it on the outside.
The four-piece set used was of a color similar to the ancient material. After calling Cheng Hui to help lay it out, she immediately lay down on it and sighed comfortably. The soft touch made her feel as if she was on the clouds, and all the fatigue in her body disappeared instantly. It had to be a modern mattress. The ancient bed made it difficult for her to sleep well.
Xie Wanxing looked at Cheng Hui, who was also lying on her bed, and said, "Mom, I think it's pretty good here. It's like a long journey. The air is fresh, and the food isn't too high-tech. Besides, we're modern people, and we have space. We don't have to worry about not making money. I'll save more money in the future, so that Mom can wear gold and jade and continue to be a landlord in ancient times."
"Okay! Then you can also be a small landlord!" Cheng Hui agreed with her with a smile.
"Also, there are several older brothers here. Although we've only been together for a little over a month, I already consider them my own family." Xie Wanxing said happily, "Actually, when I was little, I envied those classmates who had brothers and sisters. I never thought that now I have brothers too, and so many at once!"
"I'm so happy to have so many sons all of a sudden, and they're all obedient and sensible," Cheng Hui said with emotion. "So if we can go back, we'll go back. If we can't, we'll just live a good life here."
"We have moved into a new home. With the cowshed, we can raise dairy cows and prepare to sell milk tea!" When talking about business, Xie Wanxing's eyes lit up. She has become more and more like a money-grubber recently.
"You still want to sell milk tea? Then make some pearls, taro balls, roasted sweet potatoes, etc." Cheng Hui usually likes to drink milk tea and eat desserts.
"Of course!" Xie Wanxing responded excitedly. She felt that she could indeed consider selling some desserts in the store. After thinking about it, she couldn't wait to rush out to find Xie Songlin.
It's truly the end of summer, and a slight chill seems to be permeating the air, signaling the quiet change of seasons. Xie Songlin and Xie Wanxing are thinking about launching a major new product for their store, putting milk tea on the agenda, and imitating modern merchants' marketing campaign of "Autumn's First Cup of Milk Tea."
By the way, you can also think about bringing out desserts, such as simple red bean double skin milk, cream cakes, in short, they can't escape the word "milk". Xie Songlin plans to buy a big dairy cow first, so that he can give some milk to the boys at home to nourish their bodies. It would be best if they all grow tall and strong.
Xie Songlin was very efficient and would do what he said. In the evening of the next day after he finished thinking it over, he came back from the store and brought a big cow from the dairy.
The cow had shiny fur and gentle eyes, and it was obviously of high quality. He spent a full twenty taels of silver, which was enough to buy two oxen for plowing the fields and pulling goods. When he returned home with the big cow, the whole family gathered around him.
Xie Heng reached out and touched the cow: "Dad, why did you buy another cow? This cow looks different from the previous ones!"
Xie Songlin: "This is for you to drink milk, big cow!"
"Daddy, Heng'er has grown up and doesn't need milk anymore." Xie Heng felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, and his little face turned slightly red. He thought he was already a little man, and if he continued to drink milk, he would be laughed at.
He puffed out his small chest, trying to show his maturity and courage, but there was still a hint of desire in his eyes.
"Okay, okay, I didn't know you were such a greedy kid, but when daddy cooks it, you'll know what delicious food is." Xie Songlin led the cow to the cowshed and took a wooden bucket to prepare for milking.
It was also his first time to milk cows. He was quite nervous as he had no experience at all, especially since his family members were all standing around watching him with smiles on their faces.
Looking at the big cow in front of him, Xie Songlin took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then gently reached out and stroked the cow's side, trying to make it relax. The cow seemed to feel his kindness, moved slightly, and let out a low moo.
Xie Songlin carefully picked up the wooden bucket and placed it under the cow. His hands trembled slightly, and he mentally encouraged himself. He recalled the milking method he had learned from others and began to squeeze rhythmically. At first, his movements were unfamiliar, and the milk he squeezed out was small and intermittent. He constantly adjusted his strength and rhythm.
Gradually, he mastered some techniques and the milk flow began to become smooth. The white milk flowed into the wooden barrel continuously, making a slight "dripping" sound.
There was more and more milk in the wooden barrel, and beads of sweat appeared on Xie Songlin's forehead. When the barrel was almost full, Xie Songlin stopped, picked up a clean cloth, and wiped the cow's body. The cow seemed to enjoy the process and gently shook its tail.
Xie Songlin slowly straightened up, only to hear the crackling of bones. "I can't do it anymore. Milking cows is really hard work. If we really want to sell this in the store, we have to find someone to specialize in milking cows."
He moved a large bucket of milk to the kitchen, filtered it with clean gauze first, and then turned on a high fire to cook the milk. After a while, the milk in the pot began to heat up and emitted a little steam. As the temperature rose, the aroma of the milk became richer, and the whole kitchen was filled with the fragrance of milk.
"It smells so good, Daddy. Can I drink this later?" Xie Heng squatted behind the stove to help light the fire, and stuck his head out to smell the scent.
"Oh, aren't you grown up now?" Cheng Hui teased with a smile.
"Don't grow up, this smells so good." Xie Heng took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the milky fragrance in the air.
After the milk was almost boiled, Xie Songlin carefully skimmed off the foam on the surface.
He planned to try milk tea today, so he put some sugar in another pot and stir-fried it until the sugar started to burn and bubbled with a slight "sizzling" sound. He then put some tea leaves in and stir-fried it, then scooped a large spoonful of boiling milk into it. As the boiling milk entered the pot, a more mellow aroma spread. The ancient homemade milk tea was ready. Xie Songlin scooped out a few bowls and placed them by the stove to cool.
Xie Heng stood aside, his eyes fixed on the bowls of milk tea that were cooling on the stove. The rich aroma of milk and tea kept entering his nose, making him feel like a kitten was constantly scratching his heart. He kept swallowing his saliva, and his little feet moved unconsciously on the spot, as if he was about to rush over and pick up a bowl of milk tea to drink it at any time.
"Daddy, when can we drink this milk tea?" Xie Heng finally couldn't help asking, his voice full of anxiety, his eyes fixed on the bowls of milk tea.
"Wait a little longer, it's still too hot." Xie Songlin replied with a smile.
Xie Heng couldn't wait any longer. He leaned in to smell the aroma of the milk tea, then stretched out his little hand to gently touch the edge of the bowl, trying to feel the temperature of the milk tea. He muttered, "Oh, I don't think it's hot anymore."
Next to him was Xie Lin, another foodie who also loved eating, who said, "Daddy, I don't think it's hot anymore either."
Cheng Hui looked at the two greedy little cats with a doting smile on her face. She took a few spoons and gave one to each of them: "Then you two can try it."
Xie Wanxing also got a spoon, scooped a mouthful of milk tea, blew it cool, and put it into her mouth. It was so delicious that she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's the taste! It's delicious! How can this not be a big hit!!"
Xie Heng and Xie Lin eagerly dipped their spoons into their bowls and scooped up a spoonful of milk tea. The sweet taste instantly brought bright smiles to their faces. They exclaimed in unison, "This is delicious!"
