Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 62 - 61 Goat Milk
Chapter 62: Chapter 61 Goat Milk
"Want to drink sheep milk?" Cai Meina couldn’t understand why her daughter would come up with such an idea just for delivering some hot ginger tea to Zhao Gang’s family.
Could it be that Zhao Gang and his wife were talking about all sorts of random things while working in the backyard?
Cai Meina could guarantee that Gong Ruini had only tried cow’s milk a few times before, and had never tasted sheep milk. How could her good kid suddenly mention this?
If no one had told Gong Ruini, how would she have this thought?
Gong Ruini nodded, "Yes, I want to drink sheep milk. It’s good for the body."
"That’s what I heard from someone."
"Mom, don’t babies all drink milk?" Gong Ruini knew that if she explained it was for growth or whitening purposes, Cai Meina would definitely not agree.
Gong Ruini guaranteed, in many parents’ eyes, they don’t insist that their children drink milk beyond infancy.
But if she tells Cai Meina it’s about maintaining a healthy body, Cai Meina might agree.
While many might find cow’s milk more familiar, goat’s milk is known internationally as the king of milk. Of course, Gong Ruini doesn’t care much about these.
The main concern is that the fat globules in goat milk are one-third the size of those in cow milk, making it easier for the human body to absorb, and long-term consumption doesn’t lead to obesity.
Many experts in later generations recommend it for people with allergies, gastrointestinal diseases, or weak constitutions, as well as infants being more suitable for drinking.
Gong Ruini felt her previous body’s poor health was partly due to congenital issues and partly due to inadequate care after birth, impacting her stomach and intestines.
If she could consume goat milk long-term, Gong Ruini believed her stomach would improve.
The crucial factor is not gaining weight. Otherwise, amidst Northeast’s long winter, with nothing but eating and sleeping, Gong Ruini’s worried a few years of drinking goat milk would turn her into a super fatty.
To put it bluntly, Gong Ruini noticed she hadn’t been in the Northeast long but had already gained some weight.
Currently, Gong Ruini could say she’s a bit fleshy, but far from being chubby.
Of course, she’s even further from being fat, but Gong Ruini declares she can’t relax now. Otherwise, she’ll be the one crying when she turns into a pig.
Imagining herself as a super big pig, Gong Ruini felt she couldn’t sit still.
Can’t do it, we have to exercise. Although planning to lose weight through skiing, when the skis will be ready is another matter.
Frankly, Gong Ruini didn’t dare expect this to be achieved before spring, as there were way too many things to do.
Lately keeping busy with quails, capturing rabbits back home, and starting to marinate them, waiting for a few days to smoke them, Gong Ruini dares not imagine how busy home will be once the taste is tested.
As the deputy, Gong Tao has been working hard lately, and his work is efficient and resourceful.
After a while, Gong Tao and Zhao Gang came back, "Ni Zi, what are you doing."
Gong Tao found his daughter wearing just a sweater, constantly doing sit-ups on the bed, her face flushed red.
"I’m exercising," Gong Ruini dared not say she’s losing weight, fearing bad luck.
Her parents thought her current slight plumpness was satisfactory. Of course, the only dissatisfaction was that she wasn’t plump enough, leaving Gong Ruini helpless.
Seeing her exercising, Gong Tao felt a bit reluctant, but his wife mentioned their daughter always stays home and doesn’t go out.
Now seeing his daughter knowing to exercise shows she wants to exercise, just prefers staying indoors.
"Gangzi, do you know where to find sheep milk around here?" Cai Meina, although finding sheep milk a bit smelly, asked since her daughter wanted to drink it.
This must be good for health, and as for the taste, Cai Meina thought once Ni Zi tries it, she’d surely back down.
Sheep milk? Goats? Zhao Gang was surprised, as he was discussing with Gong Tao about raising goats, but he was asked about drinking sheep milk. How cooperative this kid is.
"I’ll go ask in the neighboring village. I remember a family has goats, must be mountain goats." Zhao Gang quickly replied, "Too late for today, I’ll ask tomorrow."
Ah, buying a goat? Isn’t that wasteful, what if Ni Zi ends up not wanting to drink it?
Wasting a bit of sheep milk doesn’t cost much, their couple can afford it, but a goat involves bigger costs.
"Ni Zi, sheep milk has a taste, are you used to that?" Cai Meina hoped Gong Ruini would agree not to. freёwebnoѵel.com
Sheep milk with its gamey taste, how could Gong Ruini get used to drinking it? But she remembered the New Zealand imported milk powder she previously drank. That taste was initially hard to accept, it had a gamey flavor, but eventually, Gong Ruini got used to drinking it.
As for sheep milk’s taste, close your eyes and drink it. After some time you get used to it, for the sake of good health and longevity, Gong Ruini was determined.
Gong Ruini touched the Jade Pendant hanging on her chest, truly wanted to cry. Others’ space was an amazing thing; hers was just a portable storage space.
"Mom, I can do it." Maybe climbing the mountains to see if there are tea trees, cooking them with sheep milk could dispel the gamey taste.
If all else fails, when almonds ripen, gather them, rumored adding almonds to goat milk can defuse the taste, and almonds themselves are good.
Gong Ruini recalls almonds can be used to make handcrafted soap, pity she doesn’t understand it, otherwise, she could make some.
Not for making money, at least using it to bathe herself, fortunately, Gong Ruini soaked in hot water daily, didn’t have much dirt, or she’d feel uncomfortable just thinking about it.
"Then let’s buy, if it doesn’t produce milk, we can have mutton in winter, and the wool can be collected to make a quilt." After a windfall, Gong Tao felt flush with cash.
Mountain goats have a lot of wool. Although it could be turned into yarn, Gong Tao isn’t skilled but can make quilts with it.
If flattened, it can also be made into woolen coats, Gong Tao thinks that wouldn’t be wasteful.
"Dad, you’re the best." Her dad is indeed the best, though Cai Meina dotes on her. When it involves large expenses, Ruini knows she’ll back off.
Her daughter only praises her dad, Cai Meina felt jealous.
Regarding her man’s childish smug glance, Cai Meina reflects she will teach him a lesson later, but knowing their family situation, he still acts willfully.
