She Could Only Drink Milky

Erm.

Is it really a good idea to give her so much credit?

However, the Fu's had indeed been pretty unlucky. It wouldn't have been possible to get any worse.

Though her name contained the word Fu1, she felt that she was far from being blessed.

She was unlucky too in her previous life.

She must have been the only person who could choke to her death when drinking water.

Fu Xing'er pursed her lips at the thought of her pathetic death in her previous life. A thin layer of tears instantly formed on her bright eyes.

God, can you grant me better luck in this life?

"Fubao, what's wrong? Did you pee or poop? Don't cry. I will change you."

Jiang Xinghua noticed her teary eyes and sorrowful look.

Her heart ached at this sight.

Mdm Fu hurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks. She walked over to take a look at her daughter and asked, "What's wrong, Fubao? Mummy's here."

Jiang Xinghua placed her on the bed to check if she had peed or pooped. There were no signs of either. She asked, "Mother, has Fubao drank milk yet? Could she be hungry?"

She was probably hungry by this time.

Fu Xing'er wasn't feeling hungry initially. However, after hearing them, she felt her stomach growl.

She nodded her head hard.

Hungry!

Very, very hungry!

I want roasted chicken! And spicy hotpot!

"Mother, look, Fubao is indeed hungry. She's nodding her head vigorously."

What a sight to behold!

She had never seen another child who was as clever.

Mdm Fu smiled and glanced at her, then looked down at her disappointing milk-producing machines.

She lowered her head and sighed. She hadn't been eating well and was of old age. She couldn't produce any milk.

Cows could be milked through squeezing with some strength. But for her, even if she squeezed them the hardest, she still wouldn't be able to produce any milk.

It was not nutritious to feed Fubao rice paste at this age too.

Jiang Xinghua could understand her mother-in-law's concern as they had both had children before.

"Mother, Aunt Wang's female goat produces milk every day. It is said that children who grow up drinking goat's milk will be well-built in the future. I'll go to her place and ask for some for Fubao."

Mdm Fu's eyes lit up.

Goat milk was indeed a good choice.

However, they had already inconvenienced Wang Hua's family many times.

"Mother, anybody but Fubao can starve."

The mere thought of Fubao's big teary eyes was enough to make her care less about losing face.

Before Mdm Fu could answer, Jiang Xinghua had already rushed out of the house, almost bumping into Liu Guimei on her way.

Liu Guimei cursed, "Xinghua, can you watch where you are going?"

"I'm sorry! Fubao is hungry. I have to hurry to Aunt Wang's house to get some goat milk for her." With that, she left in a hurry.

Liu Guimei glared at Jiang Xinghua's back.

Elder Sister-in-law usually looked honest and upfront. She was quite thin-skinned. Liu Guimei had not expected her to be better at her than sucking up.

She made it seem like that was her own daughter.

When she walked in to eat, she saw Fu Xiaolong and the other children standing straight and facing the wall. "Xiaoma, why aren't the few of you coming over to eat?"

Seeing that his punishment had worked pretty well, Second Fu called them over,"Come sit down and eat."

Liu Guimei frowned. What was going on?

She secretly asked her son and found out that they were being punished for waking up Fu Xing'er.

Liu Guimei's unhappiness intensified.

Was there a need to go to such length, just for a daughter?

It was as if she was more important than his three grandsons.

Jiang Xinghua returned quickly. Not only did she bring back a big bowl of goat's milk, but Aunt Wang also gave her a small bag of jasmine flowers. She took them into the kitchen to heat them up. She left a small portion for late afternoon or evening.

Aunt Wang had said that adding sugar would render the goat's milk less nutritious. She advised that it would be better to add some jasmine to the goat's milk instead for nutrition, then heat it up. The heat would remove the strong smell of the goat's milk and make it taste better.

"Xinghua, you sit down and eat. I'll bring that in." Second Fu finished his lunch very quickly, several times faster than usual.

He felt so restless while sitting there and couldn't wait to be back beside his precious daughter.

"Yes, Father."

"Fubao, let's eat." Second Fu carried the goat milk over and gently placed it beside the bed. He then leaned over and smiled at her. "Do you miss Daddy? Of course you do."

Fu Xing'er blinked her big eyes speechlessly.

"Daddy missed you too. The meal wasn't half as appealing as you."

Fu Xing'er frowned. This father was being too dramatic.

I'm so hungry!

Can you stop blabbering!

Hurry up and give her the food. She's starving.

She could only express her dissatisfaction with a few grunts.

It's not just Fu Xing'er. Even Mdm Fu could not stand him anymore too and pushed him aside. "What are you doing! Move aside, move aside. You're full, but Fubao is still hungry."

"Oh, right." He was so happy to see his daughter that he forgot what he was supposed to do.

Second Fu leaned over again, wanting to help but not knowing where to start.

It was not like he had never carried or fed a child before. He was absolutely comfortable to play and interact with Daxing and Erxing when they were just born.

Boys were more sturdy and less fragile. They could stand some roughness.

However, his daughter was different. She was so soft. He was horrified that he might accidentally hurt her or even choke her.

The more he loved her, the more worries he had.

He could only observe silently from the side and learn from his wife.

Not only did Mdm Fu raise her two sons, but she also helped to raise her three grandsons. Mdm Fu was very skilled with children.

However, she was still nervous to carry her own daughter. "Come, Fubao, drink milky."

Alright, she was still a baby. She could only drink 'milky'.

As for the roasted chicken and roasted duck, she would have to wait until she had teeth.

Fu Xing'er opened her mouth wide cooperatively.

Second Fu couldn't stop smiling and said, "Dear, our daughter understands what we're saying. She's just too smart."

At his sudden interruption, Mdm Fu's hand trembled and spilled some of the milk from her spoon, nearly wetting herself.

"Be quiet, or go outside." She was only a little nervous at first. However, his nervousness had spread to her and she was feeling more nervous too.

She looked at Second Fu with even more disdain.

Second Fu acted like a guilty child who had done something wrong. He stood obediently at the side and did not dare to speak another word.

"Fubao, ignore your father. Let's focus on drinking milk."

Fu Xing'er was extremely hungry. She sucked instinctively and gulped down the milk quickly, one mouth after another.

Natural goat milk was really delicious.

Second Fu was overjoyed and nearly gave in to his impulse to speak again. However, one death glare from Mdm Fu stopped him. He hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.

She finished the whole bowl.

Initially, she had thought that it would not be enough to fill her. However, it did.

That made sense. She had the appetite of a baby now.

"Burp!" She burped a few times, showing an expression of extreme satisfaction.

Mdm Fu was afraid that she would spit up the milk, hence she patted her back rhythmically to stop the burping. Fu Xing'er closed her eyes in contentment.

How comfortable!

How very comfortable!

"Our daughter has such a good appetite."

Indeed.

Mdm Fu wiped Fu Xing'er's mouth clean and placed her back on the bed.

Although she doted on her, she could not carry her all the time, lest she developed an over-reliance on that.

Fu Xing'er felt sleepy after eating.

She hadn't wanted herself to sleep. However, perhaps owing to the fact that babies needed a lot of sleep, or perhaps it was due to Second Fu's excessive nagging, she felt her eyelids become heavier. Then, she fell asleep again.

Outside.

When it came to clearing the dishes, Liu Guimei was again the first to flee from the scene.

Fu Daxing and Fu Erxing walked in. Fu Erxing was already back to his usual self. His recovery was extremely fast this time, unlike in the past when it usually took a few days..

Mdm Fu asked worriedly, "Erxing, are you alright?"

"Mother, I'm fine. I recovered especially quickly this time."

Strangely enough, this time, it was over within the time taken for two incense sticks to burn.

All he could think about was that he wanted to go to town with his brother to sell the firewood, so they could afford food and nutrition for their little sister. This thought had vanquished the psychological trauma in his heart.

"That's great!" Mdm Fu cried tears of joy.

Erxing's condition had always worried her greatly.

"Mother, Little Sister looks like a goddess."

"No, she's prettier than a goddess."

Fu Daxing and Fu Erxing took the risk of being beaten up by Second Fu and moved over closer to take a look.

Her round face was extremely fair and tender, just like that of a doll's.

"Of course my daughter is good-looking," Second Fu said smugly.

"Go, go, go. Hurry up and go to town to sell the firewood. Don't wake your little sister up."

Second Fu stopped them from looking further and chased them out.

"Father, give us a few more moments to look!"

"If you guys don't leave, I'll beat you up."
