PWDLAW Chapter 311: Broadening Knowledge with Miscellaneous Records

 Chapter 311: Broadening Knowledge with Miscellaneous Records



Chu Ziluo also squatted nearby watching with curiosity. "Mom, I've never milked a cow before."


"This cow is so strange, completely different from Grandma's old yellow cow."


"Mom, is this type of cow only found on the grasslands?"


"Is the grassland very large, larger than our village? I've never seen a grassland before."


"The grassland is a vast area covered in grass without tall trees. Some areas are flat, while others have high mountains covered in green grass without any trees." Ye Muyu explained softly.


Chu Ziluo touched her chin, suddenly enlightened, "So that's how it is. It must be enormous, without trees and I can see very far at once."


"That's right." Thinking of the grassland scenery, Ye Muyu also felt a bit nostalgic. Riding freely on it, experiencing that kind of freedom in the south, was something she missed.


"Mom, how did you know the grassland is like this? Mom should not have been to the grassland like me." Chu Ziluo asked with some confusion.


Ye Muyu hadn't expected that such a casual remark would lead to her daughter's suspicion. Thinking on her feet, she came up with an excuse "I read it in a book and heard your dad talk about it."


"Really?" Chu Ziluo hugged Ye Muyu's arm acting spoiled "Mom, you have so many books, I want to read them too."


Ye Muyu reached out and tapped her nose "It's perfectly fine to read books but do you know how to recognize characters?"


"I don't know all of them and there are some I can't understand."


Chu Ziluo looked a bit disappointed "Mom, can I learn characters while reading?"


"You can." Ye Muyu's gaze had already fallen on Hu Shi, who was milking the cow. Although she wanted to try it herself, it was definitely not feasible now. She could only watch.


"Really?" Chu Ziluo exclaimed happily pulling on Ye Muyu's sleeve and twirling around.


"I'll go get a miscellaneous record for you to read later. If there are words you don't know, you can ask me or check 'Shuowen Jiezi' yourself."


Ye Muyu had teased her daughter on purpose. Girls didn't need to study the Four Books and Five Classics. They could read more miscellaneous records but she warned her not to read things like storybooks, lest she be deceived.


At this time, Ye Muyu had no idea that her daughter would suspect her over a casual remark. She flashed a knowing smile and continued, "In a while, I'll get you a book to read. If there are words you don't know, you can ask me or check 'Shuowen Jiezi.'"


"Thank you, Mom!" Chu Ziluo happily exclaimed, pulling Ye Muyu's hand.


"Come with me."


"Yes, Mom." Chu Ziluo happily followed her inside.


Hu Shi had finished milking the cows. The daily milk production of the cows was quite high and with fewer people in the Chu family, they couldn't consume it all.


"Child, what are you still doing here? Go serve Miss." Hu Shi drove Nenya away.


Nenya, belatedly realizing, responded with an 'Oh' and turned to follow.


Hu Shi carried the milk out of the cowshed and said to Zhang Shu, "Give more good grass to this cow. Madam said that from now on, Master, Young Master, and Miss should drink milk every day. We can't let the milk production stop."


"I'll go cut some fresh and tender grass by the river later. The cow used to eat different fodder than the ones here and it's almost out of the previous fodder. I don't know if it will affect milk production. There's only a little bit of the previous fodder left."
