When Liu Guixia saw them return, she smiled and said, “Jiang Yue is back. You can ask her how to do it. The two people who brought the coconuts this morning told Jiang Yue how to eat them. But when we opened it, water came out. I don’t really understand either.”

Naturally, Xue Shi and the others immediately pestered Jiang Yue to make them food.

Jiang Yue took a kitchen knife and cut the coconut. Then, she put a thin bamboo tube that she had prepared beforehand and pushed it into the small hole at the top of the coconut.

She had also prepared many thin bamboo tubes and washed them all clean beforehand.

“Drink like this. After you finish it, you can eat the white meat inside.” Jiang Yue said.

Xue Yan already followed suit, also taking a kitchen knife and starting to help peel the coconut.

Jiang Yue handed the coconut in her hand to Xue Shi, who was closest to her.

Xue Shi hurriedly handed it to the youngest, Xue Xingran.

Princess Jin quickly walked over. “There’s a lot of it here, right? He’s still young and can’t drink one on his own. I’ll go get a bowl and pour half of it for Qiansheng.”

Xue Qiansheng immediately pouted and said, “No. I don’t want to share it with my stinky younger brother. Moreover, if he didn’t drink it through a thin bamboo tube, he wouldn’t get to experience it. I don’t think we should drink it from a bowl. I want to hug one and drink one too.”

Princess Jin was already used to her children’s disagreements. She said happily, “Alright, alright, alright. Then I’ll drink half of the water that’s poured out, alright? However, even if you hold one and drink it, you have to pour half of it out. Don’t forget that you were born on the same day as your brother. You’re still young and can’t drink that much.”

“Yes!” Xue Qiansheng was happy and immediately nodded.

The next peeled coconut was for Xue Qiansheng, the second youngest in the family.

Then, it was Xue Tiancheng’s turn. Because of his poor health, Xue Tiancheng couldn’t drink that much. He also poured out a lot for his mother, Pei Fufu. After pouring it out, he also hugged the coconut and bit the thin bamboo tube to slowly sip on it.

All the coconuts were handed out from youngest to eldest.

They did not forget Prince Shou, who was unusually lazy and was still lying on the bed. Prince Shou did not get up and just lay on his side, biting the thin bamboo tube and drinking while laying down. Shao Youyue could not stand it anymore, so she smiled and hit her youngest son. The coconut water was sweet. It was their first time drinking it, and they drank it while hugging it. The children felt that it was novel and delicious.

Seeing that Xue Shi already had one, his mother, Liu Guixia, had also peeled a few more for the others. They placed them there. Whoever wanted to drink it could take it and plug it into a thin bamboo tube to drink. His mother, sister-in-law, and the others were already drinking their coconut. Then, Xue Yan peeled another coconut and inserted a thin bamboo tube before handing it to Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue put down the kitchen knife and stopped cutting. She took the one Xue Yan offered. Then, she took a sip. This was coconut water. It was sweet, but it wasn’t that sweet. However, it was still quite delicious.

Xue Yan put away the kitchen knife before picking up a coconut to drink.

Xue Sanfu was outside the capital city and in charge of 200,000 soldiers, so he would not be returning today. Xue Sifu went to the main shop in town again. Usually, the children studied in town and lived in town. The family in town bought a big house with maids and servants serving them. There were also secret guards protecting them. If Sifu was in town now, he rarely stayed in the main shop. He also lived in the big house and helped to look after the children at home.

If his eldest brother, Xue Yihu, was in the furniture shop in town and did not go home, he would stay in the big house and help look after it.
