"Bao'er fell down yesterday and got her sweater dirty, so I washed it for her. I washed it for ages, but the water didn't turn red at all. Tell me, is your yarn naturally red?" Aunt Liu glanced at Wei Qingqing and said.
It's common knowledge that yarn or sweaters will fade when washed with water.
"Really? Maybe they used better dyes?" Wei Qingqing said.
"Then tell me where you bought it, I'll buy some too..." Aunt Liu said.
"That's a trade secret, so I can't tell you..." Wei Qingqing chuckled.
"Even if you didn't tell me, I would know. This yarn is definitely the original color of wool. Your family has vegetables, fruits, anti-aging medicine, ivy, and an endless supply of milk and goat milk. I've encountered all sorts of strange things. If you told me there were red sheep in this world, I would definitely believe it," said Aunt Liu.
"Hehe, Aunt Liu is too sensitive..." Wei Qingqing laughed.
"It's not that I'm being sensitive, it's that you all think we're all fools. Take our village for example, it's been so long, everyone knows your family has problems, but everyone talks about it in private, no one has said it out loud..." Aunt Liu said.
"Hehe..." Wei Qingqing smiled and didn't say anything more.
"What are you laughing at? Or rather, you never intended to hide it from everyone. If people find out, that's considered lucky. If they don't, you won't tell anyone..." Aunt Liu said.
"Hehe..." Wei Qingqing just laughed without saying a word.
"Tell me, the reason Wang Dafang suffered so much is because he discovered some secret of yours, which is why you didn't stop your dog from biting him?" Aunt Liu said.
"More or less..." Wei Qingqing said.
"We're so close now, tell me, what secrets do you two have?" Aunt Liu asked curiously.
"No..." Wei Qingqing refused without even thinking.
"You're not being fair! You told your sister-in-law, but would she really tell anyone?" Aunt Liu scolded.
"We won't tell anyone our secret..." Wei Qingqing said with a smile.
"Sister-in-law is pregnant with Yang Ming's child. We're family. If family members have secrets, it will hurt our relationship..." Aunt Liu said with a hint of resentment.
Wei Qingqing's face immediately darkened. Ever since she learned that Aunt Liu was pregnant, whenever Wei Qingqing asked who the father of the child was, Aunt Liu insisted that the child was Yang Ming's, which made Wei Qingqing very depressed.
Later, news came from Liu's family that Jiang Yue'e was pregnant. Liu's child was destined not to enter the Liu family. So, whenever there was no one else around, Liu would remind Wei Qingqing from time to time that the child was Yang Ming's.
"Okay, okay, Aunt Liu, I'll take you to see the goats that produce this kind of red wool in a little while, okay?" Wei Qingqing surrendered immediately.
"Okay, you said it, no take-backs..." Aunt Liu smiled with satisfaction.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Wei Qingqing said helplessly.
Aunt Liu quickly got off the kang (heated brick bed) and put on her shoes, saying, "The longer we stay out, the more things might go wrong. Let's go now, lest you change your mind later..."
"I really can't do anything with you..." Wei Qingqing rolled her eyes. "You better watch out, your waistline is getting bigger and bigger, don't let anyone notice..." She also got off the kang and put on her shoes.
"Once I've built up my waistline, I'll hide away at your hot spring valley until I give birth to the baby..." Aunt Liu said.
Both of them put on their winter clothes, and Wei Qingqing led Liu Sao to the back garden. Then she opened an iron gate and led Liu Sao inside.
The temperature here is not low. The solar-powered temperature controller is always on, keeping the livestock at a constant temperature of 25 degrees Celsius. The ground is covered with tender green grass. This grass was bought by Yang Ming from the sales system. It has an exceptionally strong growth capacity and is specially used to feed livestock. Generally, one acre is enough to feed one hundred livestock.
"I've always wondered why it's never cold at your farm. Is there some kind of special equipment?" Aunt Liu said.
"Of course I have one, but I won't tell you..." Wei Qingqing smiled slightly, "That's our biggest secret, we can't let anyone find out..."
"Stingy..." Aunt Liu knew the principle of not pushing one's luck too far.
"The sheep I'm taking you to see is called a volcanic goat. Its red fur is like a ball of flame. It's naturally warm and makes the best sweaters..." Wei Qingqing said.
Wei Qingqing led Liu Sao deeper inside, and after opening two more gates, they finally entered the fire goat farm.
"This is a volcanic goat???" Aunt Liu was completely shocked by the sight before her after entering the farm.
In the farm, the trees were lush and the grass was abundant. Thirty red goats, which looked like clusters of fiery clouds, were either leisurely grazing or lying lazily sleeping under a big tree, looking very relaxed and carefree.
The air around them seemed distorted, giving off a sweltering heat that made one feel a sense of warmth.
"These are the fire goats, what do you think? Aren't they beautiful? There used to be only two, but the wool wasn't enough, so Yang Ming bought twenty-eight more, so now there are exactly thirty. They're easy to feed; they eat the same things as ordinary goats. In winter, they naturally raise their body temperature, and they look like little fireballs..." Wei Qingqing said.
"...Where did all these sheep come from? And here...how did you manage to plant so many big trees???" Aunt Liu asked with a look of surprise.
"I can't tell you that..." Wei Qingqing smiled slightly.
"Qingqing, your sister-in-law wants to go see the cows again..." Aunt Liu said.
"You're pushing your luck..." Wei Qingqing glanced at Liu Sao with a half-smile.
When Wei Qingqing stared at her like that, Aunt Liu immediately put on a tearful and aggrieved expression.
"Alright, alright, I'll take you, okay? Honestly, how old are you? Still so unruly..." Wei Qingqing raised her hands in surrender.
"Qingqing, you're so good to me..." Aunt Liu said, feigning emotion.
"Huh??? Stop disgusting me..." Wei Qingqing made a face as if she had goosebumps.
So, Wei Qingqing took Liu Sao to the farm of the one-horned golden-eyed ox. Liu Sao was shocked once again. It was the first time she had ever seen such a big ox. It was the first time she had ever seen an ox with a single horn on its head. Its white fur and golden eyes looked so pure and noble... She counted them and found that there were a hundred of them.
"This is a dairy cow???" Aunt Liu exclaimed in shock.
"Of course, this is a dairy cow. A dairy cow can produce 100 kilograms of milk every day..." Wei Qingqing said.
"Such big ones, producing 100 kilograms a day, that's really not much. 100 heads, that's 10,000 kilograms a day..." Aunt Liu smacked her lips and said.
"No, it's 9,900 kilograms a day, plus a bull..." Wei Qingqing said.
"That's quite a lot..." Aunt Liu said.
"Hey, it's all because of my dad. He insisted on ordering milk for the students at their school, so we had to raise more..." Wei Qingqing said.
"Didn't they say that Uncle and the others ordered goat milk? This looks like cow milk, doesn't it?" Aunt Liu asked doubtfully.
"Making students stay up all night, won't that ruin their health? So their school has ordered milk again. My dad said they're going to order dog milk next June, just in case any students faint during the college entrance exam." Wei Qingqing's tone was somewhat complaining.
"Hehe, you're fully armed in terms of spirit, stamina, and courage. If you don't do well on the exam, then it's the students' fault..." Aunt Liu chuckled. "You should be happy! Your milk has such a big market; you must be making a lot of money!"
"You're making money?" Wei Qingqing's eyes widened in surprise, astonishment, and disbelief. "I don't even know if my dad is really my dad, but he relentlessly pushed the price down. Yang Ming was too embarrassed to argue. If I hadn't spoken up in time, we probably would have had to pay him to supply the fresh milk..."
"Uncle, are you siding with outsiders?" Aunt Liu's eyes widened. No wonder even she didn't know the price of Yang Ming's goat milk in the end. It seems this matter was infuriating, so she handled it discreetly.
"Of course, I don't know what kind of sweet talk Old Hu gave him..." Wei Qingqing pouted.
"Old Hu?" Aunt Liu asked, puzzled.
"It's the principal..." Wei Qingqing said.
"Oh..." Aunt Liu nodded, but her gaze focused on a cow: "Your cows don't seem to be from Earth..."
"How did you figure that out?" Wei Qingqing asked.
"If it were just one or two, we could say it's a mutation, but if a hundred of them are like this, then using mutation as an excuse doesn't make sense," said Aunt Liu.
"Hehe, these are all alien species..." Wei Qingqing didn't hide anything.
"An alien species? How did you get it?" Aunt Liu's beautiful eyes didn't even blink.
"I can't tell you that..." Wei Qingqing said with a determined look on her face.
Knowing when to stop, Aunt Liu said, "If you won't tell me, I won't ask anymore. Are there any other alien species? Take me to see them!"
"There are also long-tailed purple sheep, Araks puppies, rainbow birds, and egg-laying dragons. I'll take you to see them..." Wei Qingqing said, leading Aunt Liu to see the other species.
"Then the fire goat must be an alien species, right?" Aunt Liu asked, following behind Wei Qingqing.
"Hmm! It's also an alien species, but apart from its coat color, all its other characteristics are exactly the same as those of goats on Earth..."
"Those two big rabbits that Zhang Xiaofei bought, are they alien species too?" Aunt Liu asked again.
"Hehe, how come you're so smart? You can guess everything so easily..." Wei Qingqing laughed.
"Do you even need to guess? Aside from alien species, where else can you find a rabbit that big as a pig?" Aunt Liu rolled her eyes.
"Hehe, those were scattered by Yang Ming..." Wei Qingqing laughed.
Wei Qingqing first took Liu Sao to the long-tailed purple sheep farm. Under the dense woods, hundreds of large long-tailed purple sheep lived slowly, looking like purple clouds from a distance. They drank water or grazed, their long tails swaying back and forth, leisurely and carefree.
"There are 151 long-tailed purple sheep here, including only one ram. Each ewe produces 80 kilograms of milk per day..." Wei Qingqing introduced.
"So, these sheep can produce 12000 kilograms of milk a day?" Aunt Liu blinked hard. "It seems like your cows and sheep are all high-yielding, easily producing tens of thousands of kilograms..."
"Hehe..." Wei Qingqing chuckled, "Alien species, they must have some strengths. Let's go see Alex the Puppy. After seeing the puppy, you'll never be scared of dogs again..."
"Now that you mention it, I'm actually quite curious. That dog, what's it called, isn't it particularly ugly and fierce-looking?" Aunt Liu said.
"Hehe, you'll see when you see it..." Wei Qingqing kept everyone in suspense and led Aunt Liu toward the breeding farm of the Alaxus puppies.
Hundreds of giant, white dogs, as white as mutton fat, strolled leisurely around the farm. Because dogs have a habit of barking at strangers, Wei Qingqing did not open the gate, but watched from outside with Aunt Liu. Even so, Aunt Liu was already trembling with fright. Dogs are not gentle animals like cattle and sheep. It is undeniable that they are very 'humble' and 'loyal' to their owners, but they are exceptionally fierce to strangers, especially strangers who have invaded their territory.
"Qingqing, is this a dog?" Aunt Liu had already huddled behind Wei Qingqing, her voice trembling.
"Of course it's dogs... These dogs are called Alaskan Malamutes. There are 301 of them in total, with only one male. Each female dog can produce up to 80 kilograms of milk per day. This is the best-selling type of milk. According to Aunt Zhang, babies who drink this milk won't cry at night. So, many customers are loyal to this milk. Aunt Zhang didn't dare to set the price too high; each box is only 10 yuan," Wei Qingqing said.
"Qingqing, is everything you said true?" Aunt Liu held Wei Qingqing's arm tightly.
"Of course it's true... I've already brought you here for a tour, why would I need to lie to you?" Wei Qingqing said.
"When Yang Ming and I have a baby, we'll let him drink this dog milk too. That way, the baby will definitely be easier to take care of... You know, the most troublesome thing about babies is when they cry at night..." Aunt Liu said.
"Sister Liu, I think you really need to be taught a lesson. Why do you always have to drag Yang Ming into this? If you keep saying that, I won't let your son have the surname Yang after he's born..." Wei Qingqing said angrily.
"Tch, how many times have I told you? The child in my belly is Yang Ming's. If you don't believe me, let him and Yang Ming do a blood test after the child is born..." Aunt Liu rolled her eyes at Wei Qingqing and said.
With a few jokes and banter, the fear in Aunt Liu's heart gradually disappeared.
"Blood test for kinship? There are four blood types in the human body, and people with the same blood type can mix," Wei Qingqing said.
"Then let's do a DNA test..." Aunt Liu said.
"Is DNA testing any good???" Wei Qingqing rolled her eyes.
"Whatever it is, as long as it can be identified..." Aunt Liu said.
"Hmph..." Wei Qingqing could understand Liu Sao's feelings. She was pregnant, but because of her mother's unexpected pregnancy, she couldn't guarantee the child's future. Like a rootless duckweed, it made her feel insecure. So, she kept emphasizing that the child was Yang Ming's, and Wei Qingqing didn't argue with her too much.
So, Wei Qingqing led Liu Sao to the dragon breeding farm where the eggs were laid.
Two enormous egg-laying dinosaurs lay quietly under a large tree, their bellies up, taking a nap – a favorite posture for these cold-blooded animals.
"A winged lizard?!" Aunt Liu looked through the iron bars at the two egg-laying dragons inside, and while she was shocked, she couldn't help but exclaim.
"A female egg-laying dragon can lay one egg a day. However, dragon eggs have a long shelf life, so we only collect them every few days... Actually, the anti-aging medicines we take are made from the eggs of these egg-laying dragons. Egg-laying dragons have very strong vitality, so their eggs also contain very vigorous vitality. When people eat them, they can replenish the body's vitality, thus achieving the goal of youth," Wei Qingqing said.
"So that's how it is..." Aunt Liu nodded. The first time she ate a dragon egg, she felt the powerful life force contained within it. This powerful life force made the fetus in her womb exceptionally strong and healthy.
"Of course, there are also rules about how to eat dragon eggs. If you eat them raw, most of the nutrients in the dragon eggs will be lost through the urinary tract. If you cook them, the human body can absorb about 50% of the nutrients in the dragon eggs. If you stir-fry them with scallions, the human body can absorb about 99% of the nutrients in the dragon eggs..." Wei Qingqing said.
According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, vitality is actually the innate Qi, also called Qi, which cannot be directly absorbed.
Generally speaking, an ordinary person's Qi will not increase after birth because Qi is a high-level energy that cannot be directly absorbed by the human body. Once Qi is exhausted, a person will die.
The energy people consume daily comes from food. Food, through the spleen, can be transformed into acquired energy to nourish the body. Of course, some people with special methods can refine this acquired energy into innate energy to replenish the consumed energy. This is what people often refer to as returning from acquired to innate, which benefits life and prolongs life.
When dragon eggs are cooked and eaten, the life force contained within them is absorbed by the spleen and then directly transmitted to the kidneys to replenish the body's Qi. If scallions are added, although it is unknown what role the scallions play, the life force that the spleen can absorb is even greater.
After seeing the egg-laying dragon, Wei Qingqing took Liu Sao to the breeding farm of the colorful birds.
"A phoenix???" Aunt Liu exclaimed in surprise the moment she saw the seven-colored bird.
"These rainbow birds look quite like phoenixes. When I first saw them, I also mistook them for phoenixes... Rainbow birds are a type of egg-laying poultry. A female rainbow bird lays two eggs a day, and these eggs can develop a person's intelligence..." Wei Qingqing said as she led Aunt Liu into the breeding farm.
"Develops intelligence? How does it compare to goat milk?" Aunt Liu asked.
"There's no comparison. Although both develop intelligence, goat milk focuses on the spirit, leaving you feeling refreshed after drinking it, while the seven-colored bird egg focuses on brain cells, accelerating brain cell division and increasing brain volume after consumption..." Wei Qingqing said.
"That's amazing???" Aunt Liu exclaimed in astonishment.
"Of course, it's an alien species. If it didn't have something special about it, how could it be..." Wei Qingqing originally wanted to say, "If it didn't have something special about it, how could it be selected by the sales system?", but remembering that she was talking to Aunt Liu, she swallowed the rest of her words.
"By what?" Aunt Liu asked curiously.
"Memorizing... English words, you wouldn't understand..." Wei Qingqing said mysteriously.
"Tch, fine, don't tell me then, who cares to know..." Aunt Liu rolled her eyes at Wei Qingqing.
"Hehe, Aunt Liu, let me take you to see the Duoduo Rabbit Farm..." Wei Qingqing chuckled, pulled Aunt Liu out of the Seven-Colored Bird Farm, and walked towards a small fence gate on the side.
