Chapter 422： goat milk

Mrs. Qiu pointed to the cake in front of her curiously and said, "How do you eat this whole thing? Are you cutting it?"

"Well, I'll take a knife and eat it later. The kids in my family like it. You can try it later. Your son can eat it at such a young age. This is a birthday cake for him." Pei Xiu touched it. Brother Qiu's head, "Do you like this cake?"

He looked at her ignorantly and didn't say anything.

"Your head is really good. You can figure out such a rare thing."

She smiled and said nothing, there was really no way to explain this to them.

"Would you like to cut it now, and everyone will eat it first?" Mrs. Qiu saw that everyone was very interested, and she herself wanted to cut it to see what was inside.

"You are the master, and it's up to you to give it to you."

"Our guests are as they wish!"

"Well, everyone is curious anyway, so let's cut it open and take a look."

Let the servants go and get the tableware and knife.

Several children anxiously climbed onto the stools and sat and waited.

The ladies were on guard, not letting the children reach out and destroy it, and gently comforted them to wait, and they would be able to eat in a while.

Mrs. Qiu also hesitated while holding the knife, gesturing for a long time, not knowing how to start.

She has never cut this thing, how can she cut it?

She asked Pei Xiu.

"You first cut a knife horizontally in the middle, and then make a knife vertically. There are few of us, so you can cut it crosswise and divide it into eight parts."

"Understood, if you say so, I will."

Mrs. Qiu cut them according to what Pei Xiu said, and divided them into pieces.

As soon as a few children saw the cake handed to them, they couldn't wait to dig it up with their spoons.

Only today's Shouxing Gong is the youngest, and needs a nursing mother to help feed him.

The ladies took a sip with the mentality of trying it and found that the taste was really good.

The white melted in your mouth, sweet, and the yellow part at the bottom was soft and fluffy, different from all the pastries they had ever eaten.

There is only a slight sweetness, and there are refreshing fruits. I don't feel tired at all. It is much better than the moon cakes made at home a few days ago.

"Mrs. Zhou, your fruit cake tastes really good."

"I like it too. Is your shop on Dong'an Avenue going to sell this? When will it open, I must go there." Mrs. Qiu said while eating.

"It will open tomorrow. It's called Kangyuan. It's going to sell cakes, but it's not this fruit cake. It's very laborious to make. I don't have the time to do it now. I'll push it later. Only the yellow part of the cake is sold."

"That's fine. The yellow cakes here are also delicious. The taste is very unique. I'll have people go to your store tomorrow to buy them all."

"I want to buy each one too, and I prefer the yellow part below."

The others also nodded.

Pei Xiu smiled, "Even if you all like it, then I should worry about not being able to sell it. I have to prepare people all night long."

"Your cake is delicious. Men, women and children will definitely like it. The business is booming. It should be prepared more in the first month."

"People who have bad teeth, it's not bad to eat this. I ate moon cakes a few days ago, and my sweet teeth hurt, but I won't eat this."

Mrs. Luo's gums are relatively sensitive, and eating a lot of things can easily cause toothaches, but this one won't, and she also spoke highly of the cake.

"I'll go back in the evening and ask the servants to send you a few baskets for you to try it first. The three boys of my family sold for two days in the academy, and even their dean was attracted. I'm worried that there will be too many people tomorrow, and you will have to wait for a long time."

"That's good, let's go to the back door first. My kid will definitely like it too." Mrs. Yang clapped her hands, it would be great to be able to eat it in advance.

After they all finished eating, they put down the bowls and chopsticks, and only a few children were still eating slowly.

Mrs. Qiu remembered that Pei Xiu had told her before that her daughter was fed with goat milk, and she wanted to ask again.

"Is your daughter still drinking goat milk?"

"I'm still drinking. The three kids in my family are also drinking. A cup in the morning and evening. They are growing, and drinking goat's milk is good. There is no other children's foot cramps at night."

"I want my son to wean off the nursing mother's milk. My son is one year old, and it would be too disgraceful to drink milk in the arms of the nursing mother. I want him to quit, and learn from you to replace goat milk for him to drink. "

When Mrs. Qiu remembered the pictures she saw a few days ago, she felt dazzling. The son was lying in someone else's arms, holding that thing to drink milk, and while drinking and playing, he frowned.

It's fine if she doesn't see it. A few days ago, she was looking for her son, and she bumped into it. She couldn't accept it.

If I had known earlier not to listen to her mother, listen to how good Madam Zhou was, and let the child drink goat milk.

What's wrong with drinking goat's milk when their daughter is so good-looking?

She intends to persuade the nurse to leave and let her go, since she is one year old anyway.

"It depends on how hard you are, and ask him to quit. In the first few days, the child will definitely cry more and more and want to find a nursing mother to drink milk."

"I have asked someone to buy a milk-producing ewe. How do you get rid of the stench of goat milk?"

"Cooking goat milk with jasmine petals, or adding sweet almonds can also remove the fishy smell of goat milk, but not bitter almonds, which are slightly poisonous. This cake is mixed with goat milk. You can't eat any fishy smell. Bar?"

Mrs. Yang pondered, "Indeed, it tastes very sweet."

"I understand. I plan to let the wet nurse go in a few days and make him cry for a few days."

Mrs. Luo felt that it was okay for a one-year-old child to drink milk from a nursing mother. "The officials have the conditions to let their son drink until he is two or three years old. Why are you suddenly so impatient."

Mrs. Qiu described what she saw.

These officials and wives do not feed their children by themselves, they are all hired nurses.

Nursing mothers do not breastfeed in front of them, they are carried back to the room to breastfeed.

They wouldn't think about it on purpose~ After listening to Mrs. Qiu's description, Mrs. Luo also thought of that scene.

Her son is a few months older than her sister-in-law's son, and she is still drinking the milk of her nurse!

"I can't take it anymore when I hear your description."

Thinking of such hot eyes, Mrs. Luo couldn't sit still, and made up her mind that she had to let her son drink goat milk when she went back.

Pei Xiu let Wheat drink goat milk because she had no milk. She didn't like her children drinking other people's milk, no matter how old.

If she had milk, it would be fine to feed her until she was one or two years old.

Putting herself in her own shoes, if she saw with her own eyes a child of her own age, drinking milk in someone else's arms, biting and playing, she would not be able to accept it.

"Fortunately, my child is old, and it has already passed. Out of sight is pure." Mrs. Yang is glad that she has not seen it.

"I'm afraid that the child will cry a lot. If you can't bear it, you can ask the nursing mother to squeeze the milk into a bowl before feeding the child."
