Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

After the sheep were bought, they were raised in the backyard of the main court for easy milking. Mrs. Lin, who had milked cows before, skillfully milked a small basin of milk. Chen Afu entered the space and found a small brocade box containing a few agarwood residues the size of toothpicks. These residues weren’t as valuable as the leaves, so Jin Yanzi had pecked a few for Chen Afu to use in cooking.

Chen Afu saw Jin Bei lying on the ground, casting a faint green light; it must be feeling sad as the playful Jin Yanzi had been gone for more than ten days without returning.

Chen Afu picked it up and said with a smile, "Don’t be sad, Beibei. Your sister hasn’t gone to the woods to play for a long time, delaying only a few days. You’ll come back to life soon, and then you can go out and play with her." She added, "Mommy is expecting another baby. I wonder if Beibei will be his (her) elder sister or younger sister."

Jin Bei’s little body warmed up again.

Chen Afu left the space, secretly gave the small piece of wood to Hong Fei, and said, "This is the rare herb that Master Wu Zhi gave me before, which is good for boosting health. Make a small bag to cook it with the almonds in the sheep milk. After cooking, discard the almonds but keep this little stick for the next cooking."

Hong Fei nodded, boiled the sheep’s milk, and let it cool down.

Initially, the two young boys were reluctant to drink it, but after being coaxed by their mothers for a while, they finally drank it. However, feeding with a small spoon in this era, without a baby bottle, was somewhat troublesome.

After dinner, Jin Yanzi finally returned with Qi Qi and Hui Hui, bringing along two beautiful kingfishers. The kids were thrilled and played with the birds and the Zhui Feng family in the yard, creating a lively scene. Even the little boys were carried by their mothers to join in the fun, clapping their hands and shouting with particularly loud voices.

Ms. Chu said excitedly to Jin Yanzi, "Jin Bao, I have good news for you. My mother is having another baby."

She, along with Dabao and Li Xuan, were all hoping for another younger sister, so they firmly believed that there would be a little sister in their mother’s womb.
