Chapter 87: Big Brother's Engagement

Because Xu Xiaoya teased Xu Dawa and Chunmiao, she was beaten up by Xu Dawa many times along the way.

When she got home, Xu Xiaoya hugged Old Lady Xu's arm and started to complain.

However, Old Lady Xu, who always indulged her granddaughter, did not protect her this time. Instead, she said, "You little girl, your eldest brother hasn't married Chunmiao yet. If you tease them now, how can they not be shameless and punish you?"

Xu Xiaoya snorted.

Stop it.

His eldest brother was about the same age as she was when she was in high school in her previous life.

Although she has never been in love, she has seen too much.

Although they seem to be more shy than each other, they are actually so excited inside that they can't wait to marry their wives so that they can sleep well.

However, Xu Xiaoya still reminded: "Grandma, Big Brother and Sister Chunmiao are still a year away from adulthood. It's not good to have a baby too early!"

Old Lady Xu nodded and said, "Just arrange for them to be engaged and get married in a year. There's no rush to have children. It will be ready in a few years!"

When it comes to open-mindedness, it still has to be Old Lady Xu.

Xu Xiaoya understood what was going on when she heard what her grandmother said.

She knew that her grandmother was not the kind of feudal patriarch, and their family had no shortage of children, so there was no need to have a great-grandson so early.

Old Lady Xu poked Xu Xiaoya on the forehead and said, "I'm already struggling to take care of you, my little ancestor, and I don't have the energy to watch a few more babies making noises around me!"

Xu Xiaoya hugged Old Lady Xu's arm and shook it, making a fuss for a while. Then Xu Xiaoya remembered the treasures she got this time, and she wanted to take Xu Xiaoya into the space to take a look.

Old Mrs. Xu was also worried about it, but it was daytime now and people came to the house from time to time. It would be difficult for the two of them to disappear, so they could only bear it for the time being.

Until evening, Old Man Xu was in the town at the foot of the mountain, working as a blacksmith with Uncle Niu. He was not at home at all, which made things convenient for the grandfather and grandson.

When she entered the space and saw several strong yellow cows and milk cows that were already full, Old Lady Xu felt so distressed that she quickly found a wooden barrel and started milking.

He also kept scolding Xu Xiaoya for not checking it out earlier, saying that the cow's milk engorgement would cause big problems.

Xu Xiaoya touched her nose. She had been outside with Xu's father and the others during this period of time. How could she enter the space? If the cow had not brought a calf with her, the cow would probably have been rotten by the milk.

After milking, Old Mrs. Xu patted her tired waist and looked around the space. She felt that this place was really great.

If I could live here every day, wouldn’t it be like living like a god?

He was especially satisfied when he saw that the river water collected by Xu Xiaoya had actually formed a lake with fish, shrimps and various aquatic animals in it.

After this, there are more seafood to eat, and we no longer have to worry about the crisis caused by food shortages.

After walking around, Old Lady Xu suddenly asked Xu Xiaoya, "Since we can raise fish, shrimp, and cattle here, can we also farm?"

Xu Xiaoya exclaimed, how could she have ever thought about these things?

The only plants she had seen in her previous life were the flowers and plants her parents grew at home.

"How about giving it a try?"

Xu Xiaoya spoke uncertainly.

Old Mrs. Xu was immediately attracted.

He dug out some seeds from home and planted some around the lake. He watered them with lake water and then went back to his room with Xu Xiaoya to sleep.

If Xu's mother hadn't brought Little Fourteen over the next day, the two of them probably wouldn't have been able to get up.

"Mom, Little Fourteen's milk powder is gone. I came to ask Xiaoya if I can exchange some with the old ancestor!"

Xu's mother had no choice. She had no milk and her son was eating more and more every day. All the milk powder left by Xu Xiaoya before she left was eaten up by Xiao Shisi.

Xu Xiaoya slapped her forehead and took out the milk powder, but saw Old Lady Xu opened the wooden barrel next to the bed.

"This is milk. Boil it for Little Fourteen later!"

In Old Mrs. Xu's mind, milk powder and milk are the same thing. She has no idea that fresh milk is not suitable for babies and cannot be digested at all. Fortunately, Xu Xiaoya knows this, after all, it is common sense.

"Milk, cow's milk is not goat's milk. Little Fourteen will have diarrhea if he drinks it. It's better to give him milk powder. I asked my ancestors to exchange a lot for it!"

Xu Xiaoya took out two bags of milk powder and handed them to her mother: "Mom, go feed Little Fourteen quickly. This milk is for me and my brothers!"

When Xu's mother heard Xiao Shisi's crying, she didn't bother to ask about the fresh milk and just picked up her son and left.

Old Mrs. Xu was puzzled: "How do you know that Xiao Shisi will have diarrhea after drinking milk?"

Xu Xiaoya simply pushed it to her ancestors.

Maybe Old Mrs. Xu tacitly accepted that what Xu Xiaoya said was true, and she did not doubt it. Instead, she got dressed and went downstairs, brought the wooden barrel to the kitchen, and did not let her daughters-in-law do it, but started to boil milk herself.

This is cow's milk, not the milk from the yellow cattle raised in the village. It doesn't have much of a mutton smell, but has a very rich milky aroma.

The children in the house were attracted by the aroma of milk and they all lay down at the kitchen door, stretching their necks to look inside.

Old Mrs. Xu chased people away.

But the smell was too tempting, and in order to get rid of the greasiness, Xu Xiaoya poured some tea into the drink and added some salt, making it exactly like butter tea.

The flavor of milk, tea and salty taste.

Each child was given a bowl and started slurping it down without caring about the heat.

Xu Xiaoya also held the bowl and drank one. It looked like a big bucket of milk, but don’t forget how many children there are in the Xu family. Each person got a bowl. The adults didn’t drink a bowl, they just tasted it.

In this way, the bucket of milk was consumed.

There is still a bucket in the space, but grandma said that it cannot be taken out anymore. If I drink too much at once, my body may not be able to bear it, so I'd better take it slowly.

Ever since Xu Xiaoya said that drinking milk would make the body stronger, Old Mrs. Xu decided to let her family drink a bowl of milk every day.

The milk incident can be blamed on the ancestors. The men in the Xu family all know what happened. Although the women don’t understand what happened, they know that the Xu family has secrets, so it’s best not to ask too much.

The milk incident did not cause much stir, but the engagement between Xu Dawa and Chunmiao attracted the attention of the whole village.

The main reason was that Old Mrs. Xu was willing to give, and she took out a piece of cloth, a bag of fine white flour, a bag of rice, and a set of jewelry.

The jewelry may be inherited from ancestors, but the fabric is bright red, which is a rare item.

When people in these mountains get married, many families borrow wedding clothes to get married. Old Mrs. Xu directly asked Chunmiao's mother to make a new wedding dress for Chunmiao, which shows how much she values her.

Chunmiao's parents were not happy at first, but when they saw the refined white flour and rice, they were no longer unhappy. What's more, the two families were neighbors, and everyone knew each other. If their daughter could marry into the family, they could help out more so that she wouldn't be bullied without knowing it.

Just when the whole family was happy about this happy event, a carrier pigeon flew to the Xu family, and Old Mrs. Xu rushed down the mountain with Xu Xiaoya in her arms.
