Outside the door was Hu Sanpang, holding a basin of goat milk.
Little Ah Yu simply dressed herself and washed her face. With her hair disheveled, she opened the door and ran to the courtyard.
When she saw Hu Sanpang, she shouted sweetly, “Big Brother Sanpang, why are you here?”
“To bring you some goat milk.” Hu Sanpang looked at Little Ah Yu’s messy hair and felt that she looked even cuter.
As expected of Little Sister Ah Yu. She looked so good even when she just woke up.
Unlike his sister-in-law, who went out to get water to wash her face without combing her hair last time. Hu Sanpang almost fainted from fear when he saw her hair standing on end and her sleepy expression.
At that time, he screamed, “Ghost!”
Then, his sister-in-law chased him through five plots of fields with the washbasin.
It had been a long time since Little Ah Yu had drunk goat milk. The people in town were not interested in drinking milk and goat milk. They said that it was dirty.
Unless their children did not have any more breast milk to drink and had no choice but to drink it.
But Little Ah Yu liked it very much.
It was milky and fragrant. With sugar, it tasted even better.
“Thank you, Big Brother Sanpang.” Little Ah Yu thanked him. Tang Yuan quickly put down the things in her hand and took the goat milk over to the kitchen to store it.
“Sanpang, does your sister-in-law know about you bringing the goat milk over?”
Widow Zhou was a powerful person. No one could take advantage of their family’s things.
Hu Sanpang nodded. “She knows. Little Sister Ah Yu gave me a bag of candy yesterday, and my sister-in-law said that I can send some goat milk to Little Sister Ah Yu every day in the future.”
Coincidentally, their family’s sheep had just given birth. It was not troublesome to milk the sheep.
He just did not know if their lambs could be as powerful as Ah Yu’s little lamb.
Their village kids had been craving for a pet like that for a long time, but the lambs they had previously raised were all as weak as chickens.
Little Sister Ah Yu’s lamb was still the best. It could even carry her with its small body.
Now that it had grown into a big goat, its horns were very beautiful. Its fur was snow-white, and its strength was indescribable.
If the Wang Family was willing, it should not be a problem for them to use it to pull a carriage.
Although everyone dared to eat mutton and drink goat milk, they did not dare to ride in a sheep carriage.
This was because the Great Chang Nation had a rule that only nobles could use sheep and goats for transportation.
If ordinary people did this, they would either be fined or imprisoned!
After receiving the goat milk, Old Madam Wang helped Little Ah Yu comb her hair.
Madam Feng helped her boil the goat milk and added some sugar. Little Ah Yu wanted to share it with everyone, but everyone said that they did not want to drink it.
She distributed it to Tang Yuan as well, who shook her head.
Little Ah Yu said, “Big Sister Tang Yuan, you’re too thin! Look, I’ve grown some fats here, here, and here, but you don’t have any.”
Tang Yuan could not dissuade her and glanced at Old Madam Wang.
Old Madam Wang narrowed her eyes. “Why are you looking at me? Should I bring the milk to you or serve you tea? When Ah Yu speaks to you, just listen to her. If you want to be a servant, act like one!”
Tang Yuan lowered her head in fear. “Yes.”
Little Ah Yu pouted at Old Madam Wang. “Grandma, I told you not to call Big Sister Tang Yuan a servant! She’s family and my friend!”
Sir had already been taught that servants were humans that had the same status as cows, sheep, pigs, and dogs. They could be beaten, scolded, and sold.
But Big Sister Tang Yuan was not like that to her.
Old Madam Wang nodded and did not comment.
It was a good thing that the child knew how to protect her friend.
After Hu Sanpang finished delivering the goat milk, he wanted to abduct Little Ah Yu to play. When he saw Old Madam Wang guarding the place, he could only slip away.
As soon as he left, a few more people came over and sent some things over one after another. They were either bacon, salted duck eggs, stir-fried bean noodles, or beetroot.
They were all things that could only be obtained with effort.
The Wang Family is rich now. It was not presentable for them to give them cheap clothes or hair ornaments.
They might as well send some food from the village. At the very least, they could help raise Little Ah Yu.
Old Madam Wang did not refuse anyone and accepted them all.
Compared to the gifts they had given out, accepting these was not considered greedy.
When the village chief’s wife arrived with the wives of the elders, Old Madam Wang said, “Don’t leave. I have something to tell you.”
