"Sir, look, this is the sweater and knitted pants that Princess Consort had Guyu Sister make for me!"

Wang Lifu, brimming with joy, showed his newly acquired sweater and knitted pants to Master Wang, even putting on the sweater to show it off.

"Sir, this woolen sweater is so warm to wear. When the wool is sheared in autumn, I’ll have my mother buy some wool as well, and we’ll make a set of sweater and knitted pants for you."

Master Wang smiled as he looked at the sweater and knitted pants, saying with a laugh, "You little rascal are quite fortunate." His expression then turned somewhat wistful.

With these warm sweaters and knitted pants, things will be a lot better for the people of Xiliang during winter.

Wang Lifu carefully folded the sweater and knitted pants: "The Princess Consort is really amazing, to be able to knit clothes with bamboo needles. This will be another source of income for the herders in the future."

Master Wang chuckled: "Indeed, the Prince is formidable, and so is the Princess Consort. Their arrival in Xiliang is a blessing for the people here."

It’s not just the herders who will have an additional source of income from selling wool; the skillful women can also earn some silver to supplement their household.

The military supplies department has recruited a large number of women to spin wool and knit sweaters.

Once the method of knitting sweaters is widely spread, merchants will definitely want to buy them. In other inland provinces, there aren’t many sheep herders, so selling woolen items to other places will certainly be profitable.

By then, more herders and women will be able to earn some household money.

In the blink of an eye, time had come to May.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, Daohua, as per tradition, sent gifts to the officials of Liangdu and also invited Han Xinran, He Fangyi, and the wives of some officials whom Xiao Yeyang valued to enjoy the flowers, and afterward, began preparing for her son’s second birthday celebration.

On the eleventh of May, Daohua got up early to personally cook longevity noodles in the kitchen.

In the dining room, seeing Daohua bringing over the longevity noodles, Gu Jian said to Daozi in his arms with a smile: "Today, thanks to you, everyone gets to enjoy the longevity noodles made personally by your mother."

Upon hearing this, Daohua said with an embarrassed smile: "Master, if you wish to eat the food I cook, just say the word, can your apprentice refuse to make it?"

Gu Jian put Daozi into his special child chair: "Forget it, you’re busy enough as it is, and the cooks at the residence are quite skilled, too."

Daohua said with a smile, "Then I’ll have to cook more often in the future." Saying this, she served everyone longevity noodles and then sat down in front of her son.

"Today we’re eating noodles, you can’t scoop them with a spoon, let mom feed you."

The little guy was already learning to use a spoon, and right when he was getting into it, he protested loudly upon seeing his mother was about to feed him: "No, eat by myself."

Seeing this, Daohua didn’t insist on feeding Daozi and placed the bowl in front of him: "You eat by yourself then."

Daozi took his little spoon and tried to scoop, but he couldn’t scoop up a single noodle, which left him feeling both irritated and anxious.

Daohua saw this and asked with a laugh, "Do you want mom to feed you? If you do, just speak up."

Daozi looked at Daohua, and seeing that his mother didn’t come forward to feed him automatically, pouted his mouth and then bent down again to scoop up the noodles, a determined look on his face to conquer this challenge.

Gu Jian finished his noodles in just a few bites and then sat in front of Daozi: "Come, let your great-grandfather feed you."

Daozi glanced at Daohua again and, seeing that she was focusing on her own meal, reluctantly handed the spoon to Gu Jian.

Gu Jian couldn’t help but laugh: "You little stinker, picking who you like now."

After breakfast, seeing that Xiao Yeyang didn’t go out, Daohua asked, "Aren’t you going to the yamen today?"

Xiao Yeyang replied: "I wasn’t with my son on his first birthday, so today, I must make time to be with him."

Daohua immediately said with a smile: "Your son must be very happy. Just recently, I had the carpenter make two wooden lacrosse sticks and some balls from solid wood. I was thinking of playing with our son when I had time, but now that you’re here, you can play with him."
