Zhang Zian and Lu Yiyun both had their eyes fixed on the bucket Snowy held.

”You got a Crucian Carp? A fresh one?” Zian asked, doubtful.

Snowy nodded proudly. ”It's very fresh, straight from the lake!”

Zhang Zian took the bucket from her hands and lifting the lid to see a big, fat fish.

”Impressive! You've helped me a lot, I was really worried.” Zhang Zian closed the lid to prevent the fish from jumping out. ”Snowy, do you even know how to fish?”

”Not at all, I don't have the patience. My uncle actually caught it, but I took it from him.” Snowy waved her hands as she clarified, ”He's still fishing if you need more, I can bring them over for you.”

Zhang Zian pondered for a moment. ”The food market isn't open, so I might have to trouble you for more.”

”It's alright, being able to help makes me happy.” Snowy smiled. ”You don't have to be so polite with me, you can go ahead and make the stew for the kittens.”

Zhang Zian told Lu Yiyun to accompany Snowy as he took the fish up to the second floor and started boiling the water.

Since there were no customers, Lu Yiyun brought Snowy over to look at the kittens.

”Aw, they're so cute!” Snowy cried after she saw the kittens sleeping beside their mothers.

The delivery rooms of the two mothers were next to each other. The more she looked at the kittens, the cuter they were.

Even after drinking the fish stew, the mothers wouldn't produce milk immediately. Lu Yiyun did what Zhang Zian said to do, she boiled water and mixed it with goat milk powder, then added some children's multivitamins to the mixture before letting it cool. Once it reached 40 degrees, Lu Yiyun took a dropper and sucked up some milk, then started to feed the kittens one by one.

”Can I try?” Snowy asked.

”Sure.” Lu Yiyun finished feeding the kitten she was holding and handed the dropper to Snowy.

Snowy hugged a small kitten. ”Hi, cutie. I'm going to feed you!”

The mother stood from her nesting area and watched Snowy since it wasn't familiar with her.

The kittens that hadn't opened their eyes felt their mother leave, so they started to cry.

The mother was slightly relieved when it saw that Snowy didn't have any intention to harm her child, so it went back to her kittens.

Lu Yiyun corrected Snowy's stance. ”Snowy, you've never fed a kitten before, right? They have to be on their belly. Use your hands to support its belly and slightly raise its head up or they'll choke.”

Snowy did as she was told.

”Remember, only a drop of milk on their tongue at a time,” Lu Yiyun reminded her.

This was just like fishing, it tests your patience. Feeding 11 kittens little by little? An impatient person would get frustrated immediately.
