Chapter 70 Bai Wei’s generosity, everyone shares the butter!

In the iron pot, there was a pool of white butter, shining brightly.

"This is... this is..."

Zhao Fengzhu was stunned. He pointed at the things in the pot and was speechless for a long time.

The thing in the pot is butter! In this era, it is definitely a treasure!

Just this pot of butter is much more valuable than beef bone soup!

"Sister Bai Wei, how did you make so much oil? I didn't even see you buy any lard!"

Everyone stared at Bai Wei, their eyes full of envy.

Bai Wei smiled. She had stayed up all night, her hands sore from smashing bones, all for this pot of butter.

"This is butter. There is a lot of bone marrow in the beef bones, and the bone marrow is also high in fat. When you smash the bones during cooking, the bone marrow will come out. After boiling it for a while, it will become all oil."

When Bai Wei explained his method, everyone nodded.

They really didn't know that beef bones could produce so much butter.

Oil is a very precious commodity. In the army, they are only given 3 taels of oil per month. For families with many people, it is not enough. They can only enjoy meat a few times a month.

These military wives have never seen so much oil at once!

Just one glance at it would make anyone's eyes sparkle.

"There should be six or seven pounds of oil in here, but it's still not enough."

Bai Wei sighed. She had originally hoped to boil out more oil, but it seemed that there was still not enough bone marrow in the beef bones this time.

"This is not enough! Sister Bai Wei, this pot is enough for my family to eat for two years!"

"That's right. I've never seen so much oil at once in my life."

"Captain Song is so lucky to marry Miss Bai Wei!"

Everyone shook their heads, with sighs on their faces. No wonder Captain Song insisted on marrying Bai Wei. She can repair cars and make butter. You can tell at first glance that she is suitable for a normal life!

"Everyone, please bring your bowls. We will share some among each family, and that will be a relief for everyone."

Bai Wei picked up the iron spoon, walked to the stove, and prepared to distribute the butter to everyone.

When she went to Teacher Tang before, no one knew what kind of punishment she would receive, but the sisters-in-law all followed her without hesitation. Because of this affection, she could not hide anything.

"Do you really want to break up? This... this is not appropriate."

Zhao Fengzhu waved his hands and swallowed nervously.

Who wouldn’t be tempted by this pot full of butter?

"point!"

Bai Wei didn't hesitate and picked up a rooster bowl beside the stove and scooped a spoonful into the bowl. There was at least two taels of liquid, which was enough to equal a month's worth of oil.

"That's enough, Miss Bai Wei, don't give too much, keep some for yourself!"

Seeing Bai Wei scooping like this, Zhao Fengzhu hurried forward and took back his bowl, fearing that Bai Wei would take more.

"Sister Bai Wei, don't give it all to us, you have to keep some for yourself."

Everyone reminded Bai Wei, but Bai Wei didn't care at all.

"Everyone is in high spirits when they are happy. Song Qinian and I are getting married soon. This butter is a return gift to everyone!"

This kitchen is filled with gifts given by the military wives. Bai Wei must of course repay this kindness.

"Oh, less, less."

"Don't do too much, too much!"

"Sister Bai Wei, thank you so much."

Bai Wei picked up the empty bowls of the sisters-in-law and filled them with butter one by one. Everyone had a smile on their face, and when they finally left with their bowls in their hands, they all hummed tunes and sang songs, their hearts filled with joy.

Apart from anything else, this butter is absolutely treasure!

It’s much more valuable than that beef bone soup!

After the butter was distributed, everyone went home. Bai Wei looked at the three sisters He Zhaodi who were still squatting obediently by the side, and covered the pot.

The sisters-in-law also felt sorry for her and specially left some for Bai Wei, at least half a pound of butter.

According to her original idea, Bai Wei would give some to He Zhaodi, but she doesn't think so now.

"Zhao Di."

Bai Wei glanced at He Zhaodi, and He Zhaodi immediately stood up with her two sisters, looking at Bai Wei nervously while biting her lips.

"Sister Bai Wei, I'm sorry, it's my mother's fault!"

"Your mother was wrong, so let her apologize instead of you being her shield!"

Bai Wei's expression was very serious. She put down the iron spoon and walked in front of the three sisters.

"You three stayed up all night to help me. I was going to give you half a pound of butter and a bowl of beef bone soup, but now your mother has stolen all the beef bone soup. So I can no longer give you these things."

"We understand. Sister Bai Wei, we're sorry."

He Zhaodi lowered her head, rubbed her hands tightly, and felt very uneasy.

Bai Wei shook her head, "Zhao Di, you don't understand, you are not the one who should apologize!"

Looking at He Zhaodi who kept her head down, Bai Wei sighed helplessly. If He Zhaodi couldn't figure this out, then even if she wanted to help them, she wouldn't be able to.

"I see!"

He Mengdi walked out bravely and spoke to Bai Wei in a crisp voice.

"Sister Bai Wei, whoever did something wrong should apologize. Since it was my mother who made the mistake, she has to admit it!"

He Mengdi's words startled Zhaodi and Yingdi, and they looked at Mengdi in disbelief.

"Mengdi, how dare you say such things!"
