I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Double Skin Milk Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Double Skin Milk For dinner, they had noodles. Bai Zhi didn’t feel like cooking, so she simply made stir-fried noodles, her homemade noodles. After boiling them, she quickly rinsed them under cold water, then started to stir-fry them.

The stir-fried noodles with tomatoes and eggs had a sour and sweet taste. Wu Wa ate three big bowls and finally patted her belly contentedly.

“Ah Zhi, the stir-fried noodles you made are really delicious. If only Mommy could taste them too.”

Wu Wa smiled and didn’t seem the least bit sad. She simply missed Mommy.

“Back in the village, I always wanted to leave and try things on my own. But it’s only been a day, and I already miss her a bit. Still, Mommy said that as her daughter, I shouldn’t feel this way; I have to be brave, I have to study hard. I must become a very impressive person, so that in the future I can take care of everyone like she does.”

Wu Wa didn’t truly understand how one becomes a very impressive person. She felt that she was already capable enough to take care of everyone.

“Wu Wa, I believe in you.”

Bai Zhi ruffled Wu Wa’s head. She looked quite cute in her usual clothes.

“But I don’t know what it means to be a very impressive person. My mom says that knowledge can change your fate. Ah Zhi, how does knowledge change things?”

The children in their village all went to school on the other side of the mountain. But that school was too far, so very few people went.

“Of course it can. Think about it, the more you learn, the more you know. If you learn agricultural knowledge, you can grow many, many plants. If you learn medical knowledge, you become a doctor. If you learn how to teach children, you become a teacher. But if you don’t learn anything, you won’t know how to do anything, right?”

Bai Zhi hoped her words made sense to Wu Wa, but after she spoke, even she was confused about what she had said. It was rather embarrassing.

Then they noticed Grandpa Li was smiling, and Bai Zhi felt even more downhearted. She suddenly stood up and headed to the kitchen…

Wu Wa looked puzzled and turned to Bai Dan.

“Grandpa, what’s wrong with Ah Zhi? Why did she suddenly go in?”

She hadn’t understood yet.

“Hahaha, it’s nothing, it’s nothing. Xingxing just felt a bit upset, but she’ll be okay soon. Just listen to your Mommy, okay?”

Bai Dan’s eyes narrowed. Children indeed needed companionship, and wasn’t Xingxing just like a child now?

Stumped by a child’s question, embarrassed and awkward, then left with no choice but to run away—how could his Xingxing be so adorable?

Bai Zhi felt frustrated, and when she felt this way, she wanted to eat. She looked around and decided to make double-skin milk.

Double-skin milk is quite simple, though the tastiest version should actually be made with water buffalo milk. But lacking that, she had to use regular milk.

She poured several boxes of milk into a pot, started to simmer it slowly, constantly stirring to prevent it from sticking. When tiny bubbles formed around the edges of the pot, she quickly took it off the heat, poured it into a large bowl, and let it cool.

On the other side, she took out another bowl, separated the egg whites from the yolks, added white sugar and lemon juice, and kept stirring until foam formed. Not far from Nanning is a small town called Anyue, famous for its lemons, so they weren’t expensive.

She gently punctured the milk skin with a toothpick, carefully poured out the milk, making sure not to break the milk skin because that would ruin the taste.

She then poured the milk into the egg whites, mixed them well again and filtered the mixture twice before slowly pouring it back into the container. At that point, the milk skin floated to the top.

She covered it and started to steam it.

After fifteen minutes, she didn’t uncover it but let it sit for a while longer.

By then, Wu Wa had smelled the aroma and walked in, her nose constantly sniffing.

“Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi, what’s this? It smells so good.”

She was already drooling and really wanted to eat.

“Double-skin milk. I made a lot. Do you want to go find Bai Fei with me later?”

Bai Zhi had made six bowls, all big bowls, so it wouldn’t be a problem for two people to share one.

However, Bai Fei would likely want a bowl to himself, so she had prepared three bowls for them, and three for the seniors. Just right.

After she brought them out, they were still a bit hot, so Bai Zhi quickly touched her ears.

“Whoever handed down that you have to touch your ears when you get burned?”

The second bowl was served smartly, brought out directly using a cloth, and placed in baskets, two baskets, one held three bowls and the other two; this was how Bai Dan’s were brought out.

“Grandpa, remember to eat the double-skin milk pudding we made for you, we’re going to find Bai Fei.”

Double-skin milk pudding of course tastes better when everyone eats it together, so they wanted to join Bai Fei and the others.

Bai Zhi and Wu Wa each carried a basket, walking on the small path.

The summer night was very lively, especially under the Big Tree, everyone was curious about Wu Wa following Bai Zhi.

Aunt Niu directly asked,

“Bai Zhi, is this a relative of yours? I haven’t seen her before.”

“Yes, Aunt Niu, this is my grandma’s grandniece. She’s going to live with me from now on because she’s coming here to study and will be staying at my house. Wu Wa, these are Aunt Niu, Aunt Wang, Aunt Zhang… and Grandpa Li, Grandpa Fang…”

Bai Zhi called each name in turn, and Wu Wa also followed, politely greeting everyone.

Wu Wa was naturally well-mannered, and her sweet greeting made everyone think this child was pretty sensible.

“The kid is quite well-behaved. Where are you headed?”

“We’re going to join our cousin to do our homework. School is starting soon, and we’re afraid of being punished with standing.”

The excuse was ready-made, so no one doubted it.

“Go on, then. My little scamp hasn’t finished either; I must go check on him.”

“Exactly, I should go back too. It would be embarrassing not to finish.”

Because of Bai Zhi’s remarks, all the problem children had been rounded up to do their homework, some even writing while hitting and wiping their tears.

It was kind of sad, really.

Of course, this was later, at that moment Bai Zhi arrived at Bai Fei’s house with Wu Wa.

Bai Fei was eating, but strangely, she was delivering the rice to her mouth grain by grain.

This was not normal. Could it really be because of a diet?

“Cousin, Brother.”

As Bai Zhi and Wu Wa entered, Bai Fei immediately looked up, looking aggrievedly at Bai Zhi.

“Zhizhi, I’m hungry…”

Bai Zhi: “…”

If she hadn’t misunderstood, it looked like her cousin was in the middle of eating?

“Aren’t you eating?”

Wu Wa asked outright; she was one to speak her mind after all.

“But today dad cooked, and it’s really bad…”

Bai Fei glanced disdainfully at Bai Guang next to her. Her dad, good at everything else, was terrible at cooking. Even the best ingredients were ruined in his hands.

Bai Zhi glanced at the food, tomato and eggshell stir-fry, and blackish meat. She believed her.

“Where’s auntie?”

Bai Zhi looked around but didn’t see her aunt.

“Mommy went to grandma’s house for a wedding. I wish I had known so I could have eaten at your place.”
