After coming out, Xiaoguo looked at the ring on her hand carefully and touched it reluctantly.

Thank you, Comrade Ring, thank you for your companionship along the way and for saving my life.

Xiaoguo smiled sincerely, then took the thermometer and left the house.

As she didn't lower her head, she naturally didn't notice the red light flashing from the ring, which was exactly the same as the one flashing from the kitchen light.

Coincidentally, Yuling and Xiaozhu also moved all the wooden barrels over.

After the cows gave birth, Shu Botong brought over all the sealed barrels that Su Changsheng had brought over from the store.

In addition to the sealed barrels, there are also several ordinary wooden barrels that will be used to receive milk when it is time to squeeze it out.

"Sister Xiaoguo, how do you squeeze milk?"

Yuling and Xiaozhu were in a dilemma. They stretched out their hands but didn't know where to start.

That place was originally private, and even though it was where the cows were, they still felt a little awkward.

Xiao Guo cleaned her hands and wiped them with a towel. She smiled and said confidently, "Follow me."

Having said that, he pretended to be calm and reached out to the cow.

To be honest, although she appears to be very calm on the surface, she is actually very anxious inside.

It was her first time to milk, but she had seen it on videos before and because she was interested she took a closer look at the instructions. However, after looking at it, she found that the actual operation was a little different.

When he touched it, Xiaoguo took a deep breath, and according to the movements in his imagination, he pulled it gently with a little force. The milk sprayed out like a faucet, and half a bucket was squeezed out in a short while.

The little cow was watching from the side, perhaps angry because they had taken its food, and it rushed over to drink the milk in the bucket. Fortunately, Xiaozhu and Yuling stopped it in time, otherwise the whole bucket of milk would have been squeezed in vain.

With Xiaoguo's lead, Xiaozhu and Yuling also overcame their inner obstacles, slowly found interest, and soon squeezed two buckets of milk.

Xiaoguo didn't dare to squeeze too much, although based on the amount of milk a cow produces in a day, two buckets is not a lot, but it's good enough.

She didn't want to overdose, but she couldn't bear to do so.

Yuling was in charge of lighting the fire, while Xiaoguo held the thermometer and carefully tested the milk, stirring it from time to time. After the core temperature reached 68 degrees Celsius, she kept it at that level for thirty minutes. For greater accuracy, she also bought an hourglass, and it would be exactly half an hour when the last grain of sand dripped out.

"Sister Xiaoguo, I lit the candles on the cellar steps."

Xiaozhu walked over and talked as she went along, saying that this way it wouldn't be too dark down there later.

Xiao Guo nodded and said while observing the temperature of the milk, "Okay, I'll pour the milk into a bucket and carry it directly to the cellar for refrigeration."

"good!"

Xiaozhu nodded and helped Yuling to control the temperature of the fire.

When the cellar was being dug in the store, Xiaoguo suddenly had an idea that it would be very convenient to have a cellar at home, so she asked the master to come to her house again and dig a cellar that was neither too big nor too small.

It happened that she was freezing ice at home at that time. She originally planned to take the ice to the county, but she kept it at home. After a winter, the cellar was filled with the frozen ice.

With a cellar, it can not only be used as an air-conditioning room in summer, but also as a refrigerator.

Moreover, after sterilizing the milk, you can store it directly in the cellar, saving you the trouble of transporting barrels of milk to the county cellar. You can squeeze and sterilize the milk yourself, and then store it in the cellar to keep it fresh. This way you can save more, and when Su Changsheng comes to collect the milk, he can bring back a few more barrels in one trip, saving you the effort of making a trip and not being able to bring back a few barrels.

She went to Beijing during the Chinese New Year, and Yang Jia helped to freeze the ice at home. Speaking of him, I don't know if he is still used to using the set of pens, ink, paper and inkstone that I gave him. I haven't seen him for several days, and I don't know what he is busy with and why he doesn't show up.

Xiao Guo suddenly remembered that not only had Yang Jia not shown up, but she hadn't seen Yang Dasao recently either. She didn't know what had happened. She had been feeling unwell these past few days and hadn't paid any attention to this.

No! We have to go to Yang's house later.

"Sister Xiaoguo, the hourglass is almost finished."

Seeing that she was in a daze, Yu Ling quickly reminded her and finally woke her up.

Place the sealed bucket on the faucet specially reserved under the big pot, align the opening, and when the last grain of sand falls from the hourglass, open the partition, and the milk that has been successfully sterilized at low temperature will flow into the bucket.

There were three sealed barrels in total, and three people each carried one barrel and went into the cellar.

"Watch your step."

Xiaoguo was walking in front, and never forgot to turn back to remind the two little girls.

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaoguo, you should be careful too."

"good."

There were some night-shining stones left over from the store renovation, so she brought them home and installed them in the cellar. Although it wasn't as bright as the one in the store, it was still okay, at least the view was not obstructed.

As soon as they entered, they shuddered at the same time. The temperature was very different from that upstairs. They couldn't adapt at once. They didn't dare to delay. After putting everything neatly in a corner, they came up.

In order for the cows to produce milk healthily, Xiaoguo has added a lot of nutrients to them, including fine grains and grass.

She was not idle in her free time. Since the milk had been slowly being stored, it was time to start writing the recipe.

There were many recipes that came to her mind, but she also knew that it was not appropriate to prepare them all now.

Xiaoguo carefully selected some items from the pile and put them together. She thought these could be sold as the main products, and the rest could be mixed and matched at will.

Especially since summer is approaching, you can prepare some cold drinks, such as fruit tea and milk tea, which are both popular.

After sorting them out, she handed all the main and non-main recipes to Su Changsheng, a thick pile.

–

The milk in the cellar gradually became abundant, and Xiaoguo made several trips to transport it to the store.

Afterwards, Su Changsheng was notified and asked to come over. In addition to delivering the milk, he also wanted to explain the formula to him or demonstrate it personally.

Su Changsheng did not leave after coming that day because of the dairy cow birthing matter. After receiving the invitation, he could not wait to come to the small building on the second floor. Since receiving the formula, he had a lot of questions in his mind waiting for her to solve them.

Xiaoguo was also waiting for him here. When she saw him appear, she stood up and went to greet him.

"Are you so polite today?" Su Changsheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her in disbelief. She had never been so polite before, so why was she so abnormal today?

Who knew that Xiaoguo was just stunned for a moment, looked at him with a look that said, "Are you okay?", and then walked straight past him, "Let's go to the cellar."

Xiaoguo felt that it was difficult to explain it clearly, so he decided to demonstrate and explain it at the same time.

As soon as Xiaoguo said this, Shu Botong followed Xiaoguo to the backyard, holding back his smile.

Su Changsheng clenched his fist with one hand, coughed twice embarrassedly, and without looking at Xiaozhu and Yuling who were trying to hold back their laughter, he said something to Jiabao who followed them, and walked towards the cellar with a shameful face.

Yuling and Xiaozhu did not follow because Xiaoguo had already taught them step by step before and they had learned it all by now, so they stayed in the store to clean up.

Jiabao felt embarrassed to just sit there and do nothing, so he helped the two little girls wipe the table and then clean up the dust that was high up and out of reach of the two of them.

When they arrived at the cellar, Xiao Guo pointed to one side and said to Su Changsheng who had followed him, "There are ten barrels here in total. Can you carry them away?"

"No problem." Su Changsheng said confidently without even looking at it. He said that he could transport twenty barrels, let alone ten.

"Okay, try to get it there as soon as possible, and don't delay it for too long. When you get back to the capital, it'd be best if you put it in the cellar."

Xiaoguo explained in detail, and Su Changsheng listened very carefully, not daring to be careless at all.

"By the way, next time you come to deliver milk, it's best to bring it back in clean buckets."

After all, this bucket is not disposable, and it needs to be rotated every time it goes back and forth.
