How To Melt An Ice Cube 28 How Does One Milk A Cow?

She looked down at the robes that she was wearing and noticed that even though they were a higher quality than the sales persons they did seem rather similar.

"With everything that they had just shared and the way that Han Bing acted surely he sees me as more than just a servant right?" Mai thought to herself "he is putting in way to much effort for me to just be some sort of concubine right? I mean look at how caring he was when I got back from the palace. However he hasn't mentioned anything about being married to me or anyone else. I'm I just getting played with and I don't even know?" Mai continued to house negative thought about there relationship but in the end she still believe that the emotion were not just on her end. She decided to give Han Bing the benefit of the doubt and hopefully he would hurt her.

With a small pout on her face Mai glanced at Han Bing and gestured to her clothing as if she was saying really?

Han Bing had a slight flush on his face as her wardrobe had been left to him since she didn't come with any extra clothes. All this manor really had was servants clothing for woman and these were special ones that were extra comfy but still. Honestly Han Bing had forgotten that she was even wearing servants clothing because her beauty had shined through bringing a different light to the clothing. Obviously a girl that had a crush on Han Bing would not see it in the same light.

"We can go back to the market?" Han Bing said in a quiet voice almost afraid of Mais wrath of being called a servant from her appearance.

"Mmmm" Mai said well nodding her head in agreement.

"Sister, say thank you for the cow where are you manners?" Zheng Li said trying to remedy the odd situation that his young master was in. Him and Han Bing both knew that his sister had a slight crush on Han Bing however, she was way to young for Han Bing to even think about such a match.

"Thank you, young master!" Zheng Lin said in a young cute voice. "However why did you get a cow?" She asked rather puzzled by such a odd creature.

"For dessert!" Mai excitedly shouted out as she was once again reminded about the whole reason she wanted a cow again. "We have to milk it….. Does anyone know how?" Mai asked in a puzzled tone. Even if she knew that you were supposed to pull down on the teats of the cow for the milk to come out she wasn't exactly positive of the proper way.

Han Bing just stared at her with wide eyes in shock. "Alright" Mai thought, "maybe I was a little to quick in wanting a cow. I just want to have cream why is that so difficult."

Not wanting to seem as though she was completely clueless Mai bent down to examine the cows underside. "I am really positive I just pull on these parts right her and milk should come out" Mai thought. Wanting to test her idea she immediately wrapped her hand around the cows teats and pulled.

The cow let out a loud moooo and slightly shoved Mai to the side.

"Why does this cow not like me!" Mai said as she went into the corner to sulk by herself. She didn't even have the guts to look at the other people that she was with as she was expecting laughter from them.

Zheng Lin stared at the scene and finally understood what the intentions of Mai's was. Earlier she hadn't exactly known what the cow had to do with milk but now she could see what they had been after. Zheng Lin had a gift with animals which. Is why she preferred them to most human company.

"Zheng Li, go grab me a bucket from inside the house" Zheng Lin said sweetly.

Han Bing watch Zheng Lin intently as he asked her about milking the cow.

"I think I understand the proper way to do it. It's just like the young pigs with their mother right?" Zheng Lin said.

"I believe so" said Han Bing.

After Zhen Li returned with a bucket, Zheng Lin placed it under the cows udder. Gently grasping 1 of the teats in her hand she squeezed on it until you could hear the sound of milk hitting the bottom of the bucket. After finishing with the first teat she did the same to the other 3 teats filling the bucket almost all the way.

When ZHeng Lin looked up from her task of milking the cow she saw 3 pairs of eyes staring at her all with varying emotions. Her brothers face was full of horror as she had performed yet another odd task that involved farm animals. Han Bing was one of interest with a slight smile on his face. Whereas Mais face held untold joy from the amount of excitement she was holding back trying to not scare any of the animals around her.

"I believe this is what you wanted?" Zheng Lin said as she gave the bucket to Mai.

"Thank you so much. Little Lin!" Mai said as she out the bucket down on the flat ground near her feet.

Zheng Lin watched as Mai rushed over from her current spot towards her with her arms stretched out ending in a giant hug.

ZHeng Lin only having her brother left from her family was unused to the current situation and was unsure what to do in response to the hug that only seemed to be getting tighter around her.

"Will you come for dessert when it is done?" Mai asked Zhen Lin, who was still stuck in her embrace.

"Yes, if you let me go I will do anything" Zheng Lin replied.

Coughing at her behavior that she had realized was odd realized right away.

"Right, we will get someone to bring you when it's done… unless you want to learn how to make it too?" Mai asked.

"Is this another trick of my brothers so that I can learn wifely duties?" Zheng Lin thought to herself in wonder "he really is getting smarter if it is." Not wanting to appear rude she said that she would come after it was made.

Zheng Lin and Zheng LI watched as Han Bing and Mai walked down the path that they had just came up carrying a bucket of milk with them.

"Is she his wife?" Zheng Lin asked her brother.

"We both know that she will never legally be" Zhen Li said while shaking his head
