Chapter 1521: Chapter 1520: Stay Low-Key, Must Stay Low-Key_1
Goat milk, hailed as the “king of milks” due to its rich nutrition, sold less in later generations for various reasons, and was far less popular than cow’s milk.
Bei Lingsu, upon hearing that Qiao Xiaomai was raising cattle and sheep, immediately expressed her desire to drink goat milk too.
The cattle and sheep Qiao Xiaomai raised were quite effective; after being watered with Spiritual Spring water for several days in a row, the milk squeezed out had such a strong milky aroma that it was intoxicating.
Such milk was much loved by Bei Lingsu and Yang Wenxiao, especially Yang Wenxiao. He stated that having Qiao Xiaomai raise cattle was truly a wise decision. If Qiao Residence wasn’t so small, he would have really liked to entrust Qiao Xiaomai with the care of thousands of cattle and sheep.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai really wanted to roll her eyes.
This Yang Wenxiao really was…
…using any handy person to death.
And he was truly unapologetic about it.
Yang Wenxiao seemed to know that she would be annoyed, and he gave her a justification that was boldly logical: the quality of this cow and goat milk was so good that if it were to be sold, it would definitely fetch a high price.
With the construction of both roads and canals needed, a large amount of silver was required. To neglect the opportunity to earn such silver would be a waste.
At these words, Qiao Xiaomai felt like spitting blood.
Really, she felt like spitting blood.
She knew that the Floral Dew she created was like robbing money, so she had been exceptionally low-key lately, seldom leaving the residence and focusing intently on making Floral Dew within.
But now Yang Wenxiao was actually suggesting that she go out and rob money at this time. Was he worried that the hatred she attracted wasn’t enough?
Tong Sanlang had his life threatened just because of the casino. Now, she could simply rely on Floral Dew to continuously make easy money without end, which would surely draw even more attention to her.
She was so frightened that she didn’t dare to go out of the residence.
She didn’t have Tong Sanlang’s martial arts skills.
She declined Yang Wenxiao’s proposal with righteous indignation. One should not be too greedy; making money should be done gradually. She already had Floral Dew in her hands, and in the summer, with watermelons and crawfish raised in the Imperial Manor, she would definitely make a fortune.
Low profile, she needed to keep a low profile.
However, while she couldn’t greatly increase the breeding of cattle and sheep, she could plant fruit trees in the garden.
She ordered people to uproot half of the flowers in the garden and planted common fruit trees like grapes, dates, and peaches. These fruit trees were transplanted and would bear fruit this year. Every morning, she watered them with Spiritual Spring water, looking forward to tasting delicious fruit in the summer.
Watermelons are the best in summer, but other fruits should not be lacking either.
And so, time quietly passed, and one day, someone came calling.
This was a girl from the Grassland, named Jina. She came to the Capital City last year with her elders and was instantly captivated by its prosperity. This year, after arriving, she simply found a family to marry into within the Capital City.
Her father was a chieftain of the Grassland Nomadic Tribe, and she had married into an Aristocratic Family, a match arranged by Yang Wenxiao.
