Chapter 182 Goat Milk

"Huzi, please slow down, mother feels much better." Seeing her son hunched over and pulling on the rope, Huzi's mother felt very distressed.

She gave birth to a good son and a good daughter, but her own health was not up to par, and now she was dragging them down.

"It's okay, Mom, I'm in good health, no problem." Huzi's back became even more bent. After all, he was only a teenager. Plus, he was hungry and he really didn't have much strength. They are his relatives in this world, and he is unwilling to let them go no matter what.

"Mom, what is this?" Xiao Nizi originally hugged Hu Ziniang tightly, but just after a bump, her leg hit something, a little soft and a little hard.

When he opened the tattered quilt, he discovered that there was an extra sack where the lambs had been placed.

"This is..." There were lights on the roads in the city. Through the lights, Hu Ziniang quickly saw that there was cornmeal inside, and at the top, there were three white-flour steamed buns.

"Eat, do we have something to eat?" The mother and daughter were both in disbelief. Their family had been without food for several days. When they were hungry every day, they could only dig some wild vegetables and boil them in water. Now look at When it came to the serious white-flour steamed buns, both mother and daughter couldn't help but rub their eyes vigorously.

Fortunately, after rubbing her eyes, she found that the food was still there. Huzi Niang immediately tied the bag tightly and said, "Huzi, hurry up, let's go home, not go to the hospital."

"Mom, you are so good, how can you not go?" Huzi disagreed. They had already exchanged money and were not afraid of not being able to pay the medical bills.

"Listen to me, go home quickly. Our benefactor gave us something, so no one can see it." Hu Ziniang said carefully. When she heard her benefactor, Hu Zi turned around and ran back. Halfway through, Hu Ziniang also Got off the bus.

"Mom, why are you down? Come up and have a rest!"

"It's okay, Huzi. After taking the medicine given by my benefactor, my mother feels full of strength. My mother's health is already well." Huzi said happily: "Mom will push the cart with you."

The family of three quickly returned to their home on the outskirts of the city, and then took advantage of the darkness to move the things on the cart back to the house.

A bag of cornmeal, estimated to weigh fifty kilograms, and steamed white flour buns exuding a strong aroma of wheat.

"Mom, is this a white-faced steamed bun? It smells so good!" There was no light in the room, so Nizi couldn't help but lick her lips under the firelight of the Kang pit. She had never eaten white-faced steamed buns before.

"Well, these are white flour steamed buns. The benefactor is a good man." Hu Zi Niang wiped her tears. This is not food. This is the life of their mother and son. With this food, their family can survive until the autumn harvest. .

"Huzi, Nizi, let's kowtow to our benefactor again. Remember that this matter can only be kept in your heart. You can't tell anyone you meet. If you have the opportunity to see your benefactor again in the future, you must thank him properly." Who is it now? The family was short of food, and Huzi Niang was afraid that their mother would not be able to protect the food, so she taught her carefully.

"Mom, we understand. We will definitely repay our benefactor in the future." Huzi and Nizi both nodded heavily.

Qin Ming did not go home. If he went back at this time, it would be late at night, which would make his family worried. So he simply found a clean cave in the mountain, moved stones to block the entrance of the cave, and entered the system space.

First he gave the two lambs some spiritual fluid, and then got some nutritious grass to feed them. Now he was able to adjust the time ratio in the system space. Qin Ming simply adjusted the time to twenty times. That is to say, a whole night passed outside, but only a few dozen minutes passed in the system space.

Before dawn the next day, Qin Ming set out, walked on a small road, and soon returned to the commune. He saw his home from a distance. At this time, the genius suddenly dawned, and Qin Ming released the dairy sheep from the system space.

"Be good and follow me home." He put a rope around the goat's neck and walked towards home.

After eating the spiritual liquid given by Qin Ming and the grass in the system space, the wild goat became very affectionate to Qin Ming and followed him obediently. The first one to notice the movement was Gouzi. He barked at the courtyard door, and then jumped up and down happily.

The dog's movements soon alerted Wang Limei and Zhang Yinghong who were cooking in the kitchen.

Wang Limei looked outside and said, "Sister-in-law, there seems to be movement outside. I'll go over and see what's going on. Just stay here and watch the fire. Wait until I come back to cut the wild vegetables."

Although there is food at home, now is the time when there is a shortage of food. Every household in the commune has people digging wild vegetables to take home and mix with them to eat, and their family is no exception.

Therefore, Qin's mother no longer allows her to go to the fields to earn cents, and only allows her to take the younger children at home to dig wild vegetables. Zhang Yinghong knows that this is Qin's mother's care for her, and she is naturally grateful, so even if Qin's mother disagrees , she still insists on getting up early every day to cook with Wang Limei.

Now Wang Limei has completely given up on the Wang family and values ​​her husband's family more than anything else. Although she still envies Zhang Yinghong for giving birth to her son, she still takes care of her.

"Okay, it's not like I've never had a baby before. This little bit of work is nothing. I'll do it. You go and take a look at what's going on outside. No one should be here this early in the morning. "Qin Ming brought back so much meat a few days ago, Zhang Yinghong also ate a lot. It had been more than three months, and now her waist has grown a circle. This is because she is pregnant before her eyes. She was also a person who had given birth to several children, so she had an idea of ​​whether she could do the work and how to do it. She sent Wang Limei away and went to get wild vegetables by herself.

When Wang Limei came to the courtyard, she saw the dog jumping towards the courtyard door. Wang Limei's face changed. The men in the family were repairing canals recently and did heavy work every day. It was better not to rest. Don't let this dog The dog was so noisy that it woke her up and she had been out of energy all day, so she hurried over and shouted in a low voice: "Gouzi, stop making trouble!"

As soon as Qin Ming walked to the door of the courtyard, he heard Wang Limei's voice, "Third sister-in-law, are you you?"

"Ah, little brother?" When she suddenly heard Qin Ming's voice, Wang Limei was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the door, "Little brother, why are you back so early in the morning? Oh, this is..."

"Third sister-in-law, please close the door first." Qin Ming led the wild goat into the yard.

"Woof" Gouzi saw a wild goat suddenly come into the yard. Without saying a word, he swooped down and brought the meat to his mouth. Shouldn't he have a good taste of it?

"咩咩" This frightened the wild goat. Fortunately, it was a wild goat that had drank spiritual liquid and eaten extraordinary grass in the system space. Although it was scared, it still knew how to ask for help from its owner, Qin Ming. "Gouzi, this is a member of our family. He will live with us from now on. You have to take good care of this wild goat and don't let anyone bully it." Qin Ming patted Gouzi's head. The dog, who was so brave just now, suddenly became confused.

The owner actually lets meat come to the house and refuses to eat it?

But soon, it smelled the faint familiar smell of the wild goat, which is the smell that comes from drinking the delicious water.

"Woof woof" the dog barked twice, raised its head hard, stuck out its tongue, and signaled Qin Ming to give him some delicious water.

"Okay, I'll give it to you later. Just stay here for now." The benefits of spiritual liquid to animals and plants are obvious. It is precisely because of spiritual liquid that dogs and wild goats have spiritual energy.

"Third sister-in-law, I brought back a wild goat that gave birth to milk. You go get a basin and let's squeeze out the milk." Goat's milk is a good thing to begin with. After drinking the spiritual liquid and eating the goat's milk from the spiritual grass, It should be better, right?

"Oh my God, I'm going right now!" Wang Limei finally came to her senses and ran quickly to the kitchen, grabbed a big wooden basin, and ran out hurriedly before she had time to talk to Zhang Yinghong, "Little brother, look at this How's it going?"

Is the younger brother back?

Zhang Yinghong felt a little strange when she heard this. My younger brother is currently studying in college. Why did he come back at this time? Could something have happened?

He cut the wild vegetables on the cutting board with a few knives, then threw them into the pot and stirred them. Then he closed the pot lid, added a handful of firewood to the stove, and then walked out.

In the yard, Qin Ming was instructing Wang Limei in milking, and white goat milk continued to drip into the wooden basin.

A smell of milk wafted in the yard, which made the dog very anxious. He kept circling the wooden basin, "Dog, come here!"

Qin Ming took out some spiritual fluid, mixed it with water and poured it into Gouzi's rice bowl. Gouzi then wagged his tail and went to drink water. Here, Zhang Yinghong and the men of the Qin family who had just woken up had already surrounded Wang Limei and the wild goat. got up.

"Yaoyao, where did you get this good thing? This wild goat's milk is so nourishing," Qin's mother beamed with joy, "You don't know, right? When I was a child, I heard from the elders that this wild goat's milk is very nutritious." It’s a good thing. I heard that as long as you take a sip, your whole body will feel energetic. With this good thing, our whole family can enjoy it.”

"Mom, is this true? A mouthful of wild goat milk has such a good effect?" Qin Sanniu expressed doubts. Why hasn't he heard of this?

"You bastard," Qin's mother said with a slap in the face, "how many times did I talk about this when you were children, but you just didn't remember it at all. You forgot that when you were a child, you said you really wanted to take a sip of wild food. Have you tried the goat milk?”

Qin Sanniu didn't dare to speak anymore. Qin Ming even laughed after hearing this. This third brother can do it. Although he often gets beaten for being stupid at the old lady's side, in fact he has brought him closer to Qin's mother. As for the relationship, Qin Erni and Qin Wuni usually wouldn't act cute and coquettish in front of the old lady and cause trouble. The old lady's relationship with them had always been indifferent, like invisible people.

"Mom, can I take a sip of this wild goat's milk?" Qin Sihuo was greedy. As a chef, the canteen naturally provides rice. In order to save food for the family, he would not eat at home, but this He hasn't tasted goat's milk yet, and it smells very fragrant. Isn't it possible that one sip of it will keep him out of trouble for the whole day?

"Drink, drink, drink, look how fat you are and you are still drinking, get out of here!" Qin's mother waved her hand to drive Qin Sihuo away angrily. Now Qin Sihuo did not dare to speak and only looked at Qin Ming. "Brother, can you help me quickly?"

"Mom, you need to drink this goat's milk fresh. This big basin is going to be boiled later. Let's all drink some. This goat's milk can improve the body's resistance and help with hunger!" After hearing this, Qin Ming said As he said this, everyone's faces showed joy. In such a rough world, it would be best if there was something that could carry the hunger.

"Then let's all drink. You have to thank Yaoyao. No, Yaoyao, aren't you at school? Why are you back?" Qin's mother realized later and suddenly remembered this matter.

"Mom, I took a leave of absence from school. I don't have to go to school every day. I am writing a paper at home. I heard from my classmates that there are good things in Pigeon City, so I thought of going to have a look. Then I came across this good thing, so I hurried It’s a good thing after I exchanged it. From now on, you, dad, and everyone in the family will be able to supplement their nutrition every day.”

The amount of milk from this wild goat was so large that it filled a large basin. While cooking, Mother Qin added a few more ladles of water to the milk, and everyone got a large bowl.

"Milk, it tastes delicious." Tiepi was not afraid of being burned, so he drank it all while holding the bowl. Then he stared eagerly at the others who drank the milk in small sips, so greedy that his saliva flowed out. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore. She couldn't help but look at Qin's mother, "Milk, can I drink a little more? Just a little is enough."

"You kid, I made you drink so fast. Now you regret it. Come on, uncle, give it to you." Qin Ming picked up his own bowl and poured half of it into Tiepi. Tiepi shook his head like a rattle, "Uncle, please It’s an elder, I can’t drink your goat milk. Our teacher said we can’t steal things from our elders, so I’ll do it myself.”

If you dare to drink the milk from your uncle's bowl, why don't you beat him to death for his milk?

Tiepi ran to the kitchen decisively. Although the milk in the pot was gone, the pot in which the milk had been boiled still had a smell. Add water and it would turn white and taste good. Soon, Tiepi was carrying a bowl of mutton mixed with water. The milk came out, and this time he was not so anxious. He imitated the others and turned the rim of the bowl and drank in small sips with a satisfied look on his face.

Qin Ming looked at the way everyone drank goat's milk and felt very emotional. In later generations, cow's milk and goat's milk have become a common commodity and appeared on the dining tables of thousands of households. Many people even drank it to the point where they no longer want to drink it, but In this era, these are rare and rare products. Normally, there is no way to get these things. It is no wonder that everyone is reluctant to drink them all in one go.

"Everyone must remember that no one is allowed to tell anyone about this." Qin's mother warned everyone as usual, and asked Wang Limei to boil eggs for Qin Ming to supplement his nutrition, but Qin Ming gave him He stopped and said, "Yao Yao, you have worked hard, you should eat these eggs!"

All the chickens raised at home were handed over, and these eggs were brought back by Qin Ming last time. Qin's mother thought Qin Ming was going to refuse, and immediately stopped him sternly.

"Mom, everyone is tired these days. Let's eat some eggs to replenish our energy. Third sister-in-law, please make some scrambled eggs and put a few more eggs in. I have found a way to buy eggs. There is no shortage of these things at home. .”

Wang Limei glanced at Qin's mother and saw that she did not refuse. She immediately agreed happily, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Who doesn't want to eat something good, let alone warm goat's milk, and paired with corn and wild vegetable paste, this breakfast is simply not good.

Qin Ming's face darkened when he saw the mushy wild vegetables being served.
