Tao Zhu likes to drink milk. After it is cooked, it smells fragrant. If he puts some sugar in it, it tastes so good that he can drink it as water.
In addition to drinking, he also used it to make various snacks.
He had never added milk when making dim sum before, but now he directly uses milk to mix the noodles, so the dim sum has a milky aroma, which is delicious and smells good.
He couldn't help but take out a pen and paper and make a plan.
In the future, he will also buy a farm to raise cattle and let the cattle produce milk.
He told Li Qiao about this plan, and Li Qiao was very supportive and told him about the benefits of milk.
"When you have more milk, you can use it to take a bath. Milk can make your body whiter and more delicate." When Li Qiao said this, she smiled and kissed him.
His whole body felt hot from being kissed, but Mr. Shen's white heart flashed through his mind, so white and delicate?
If he takes a bath in milk, can his body become like that?
"Didn't you say you like rough ones?" After Li Qiao's kiss ended, he lay weakly on Li Qiao's body, grabbing a strand of Li Qiao's hair and twirling it around his fingertips.
Could it be that Li Qiao’s preferences have changed?
"Let nature take its course. Besides, you're not rough all over."
Li Qiao said and patted his butt a few times: "Do you think so?"
Tao Zhu: "..."
He couldn't hold back the smile on his face, but his cheeks became warm again.
He wrapped himself around Li Qiao and rubbed Li Qiao's neck hard several times.
I have decided to take a bath with milk from now on!
The days moved forward day by day, and soon it was early February, and the examination finally began.

The author has something to say:
Chapter 106 The test question is too big
The location of the examination is in Shengjing Gongyuan.
The process is the same as the provincial examination, with a total of three exams, each taking three days.
It was early in the second month of the lunar calendar, and the spring was cold. On this day, when Li Qiao, Tao Zhu, Zhuang Jia, Xu Yingchen Hua, Meng Yue, Han Ning and others came to the gate of Gongyuan, it was still dark.
The chilly breeze blew against people's faces, causing Li Qiao to wrap her fur clothes tightly around her subconsciously.
"There are so many people." Tao Zhu looked around and couldn't help but squeeze in next to Li Qiao.
It was crowded, and it looked like there were more people than during the provincial examination.
Li Qiao smiled: "No, the entire Dasheng movement is here, there must be tens of thousands of people."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Tao Zhu couldn't help but squeezed closer to him, and she was close to him. The hand that wasn't carrying the exam basket quietly reached out to hold his hand under the cover of her fur coat.
Li Qiao couldn't help laughing. Brother Zhu was bolder today.
He grabbed Tao Zhu's warm, somewhat rough hand and whispered, "There is no moon tonight."
There are no stars above our heads, so today is probably cloudy.
"I don't want to look at the moon, and it's so cold. I try to go to bed as early as possible. If I can't sleep, I'll think about it. I won't go out and run around. Don't worry, just concentrate on the questions."
Tao Zhu also said softly.
"Okay." Li Qiao smiled, grabbed his hand, and stayed close to him.
Meng Yue was only two steps away from Li Qiao Taozhu. He had a sad look on his face. He had no confidence at all.
Xu Ying and Shen Hua were standing not far away. Xu Ying was also telling Shen Hua not to wander around these days and to stay at home.
The Xu family next to him looked impatient, but they did not dare to start an argument at the gate of the Gongyuan, so they could only look gloomy as if someone owed them money.
Shen Hua was too lazy to talk to the Xu family. He just looked at Xu Ying and listened carefully to Xu Ying's explanation.
Ever since they got married to Xu Ying, he and Xu Ying had been inseparable. Now they were about to be separated for three days, and he wanted to sigh even before they were separated.
Zhuang Wen had adjusted his mentality a long time ago. He was very happy to be the best in the exam, even if he was at the bottom of the exam.
It doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam. The title of Juren is already a glorious one.
Therefore, at this moment, he felt more fresh than nervous. He looked around to see what the other candidates were doing.
Other candidates were like them, either talking to family members who were accompanying them for the exam, or talking to candidates they knew about people and things related to the exam.
Li Qiao really offended all the candidates this year when he said the word "Pengci".
Even if he is telling the truth, other candidates will feel unhappy.
You really think highly of yourself, you have such a big face, Xin Zhi, the proud son of heaven, has never held such a high posture, but Li Qiao, a little country bumpkin from a small place, has his tail raised.
Huh, do you really think Shengjing is a small Yuanhe Province?
This time we will try to teach him how to behave!
Not far away from Li Qiao, several candidates gathered in a circle and were mocking Li Qiao.
"In Shengjing, the most indispensable person is the head of the case, Jie Yuan. Does he think he is special? Xiao Sanyuan only has one article to write, so why should he be so proud?"
"No, the level is not worthy of the fame. If it were anyone else, he would definitely be low-key and humble due to shame. But he is so proud that he is proud of it instead of being ashamed. He even tries to show off his talent. I don't even bother to pay attention to him at all the gatherings here and there. It's hard to support him alone. Let's see how proud he can be."
"Yes, yes, the people in Yuanhe Province only promoted him for the sake of the Holy One. They held him up so high that he didn't even know how much he weighed. This meeting The trial will let him know that he is actually nothing, and there are many people who can overpower him in this session."
"Mr. Xin's calligraphy, poetry, and strategic essays are all exquisite. He should be the number one candidate for the top prize!"
"Brother Gu's articles are also exquisite. If the number one scholar falls on him, he will be able to convince everyone."
"There are also those from the Imperial College..."
These people began to count the seed players who had a chance to surpass Li Qiao this year.
After hearing these words, Li Qiao's expression didn't waver at all. He immediately entered the examination room and thought about the topic of the policy discussion first.
Soon, soldiers wearing armor came to maintain order.
In both the Tongsheng Examination and the Township Examination, the officials of the local county and government offices maintained order and did chores, but the difference was that in the General Examination, the people responsible for maintaining order were the Imperial Army.
As soon as the imperial troops arrived and the gongs and drums rang, the entire gate of Gongyuan fell silent.
Next, the candidates lined up to enter the tribute courtyard, while others waited to step back.
Li Qiao said goodbye to Tao Zhu, held the examination basket in both hands, and stood in the long queue.
There were 10,000 people attending the conference this time, more than 3,000 more than during the provincial examination, so the entry speed was very slow.
It was almost noon when Li Qiao and a few people were waiting in line.
Because of the cold weather, all the clothes were not taken off during the body search, but because the clothes were thick, the soldiers examined the candidates slowly and carefully, touching the candidates from head to toe.
Hair is let down, shoes are taken off, every inch is taken care of.
After the body search, Li Qiao took the dormitory number plate he had just drawn and the examination basket into the Gongyuan.
The layout of the Gongyuan in Shengjing is similar to that of the Gongyuan in the capital. After crossing the Mingyuan Tower, Li Qiao walked towards the Hao House in the east.
The one he drew this time was still Dongwenchang, number 58 with the word "Qing".
There are a total of sixty houses in each row, and he drew number fifty-eight, which was a bit behind.
When he came to his own dormitory, he looked around and saw that the toilet was more than ten meters away from his dormitory. He was secretly relieved.
He didn't want to smell the toilet smell while eating.
The dormitory in Shengjing was brand new and tidy than the one in the capital, but it was just the same. Li Qiao could not stretch out his hands and feet after sitting in it.
There was still a lot of time before the exam started, and Li Qiao was bored and could only sleep.
The weather was cold and gloomy, and there was no door to the dormitory. A small breeze blew into the dormitory, but he was not afraid. He was a superpower and wore thick clothes. He lay on the wooden board and fell asleep quickly.
When I woke up, it was dark and almost dark.
At this time, the sound of gongs came from the Mingyuan Building.
Hearing this voice, he suddenly became energetic, and the examination officially began.
Soon, soldiers came over to hand out test papers, toilet paper, candles, and charcoal fire. It was already dark, so Li Qiao lit the candle and began to read the questions.
The first test only tested Mo Yi and Tie Jing. Compared with the questions in the last provincial examination, the questions this time were very normal, and there were no weird questions like Dujiangyan Principle.
Li Qiao scanned all the questions and felt relaxed. He began to sharpen his ink and wrote the answers on the straw paper. After writing, he copied them onto the test paper.
Three days passed by in a hurry, and the first session was over.
When they left the examination room, most of the people looked very relaxed. After all, it was an examination. They had already passed the childbirth examination and the provincial examination. The questions this time were trivial to them.
The second game starts soon.
This test is about poetry and strategy.
Poetry was Li Qiao's weakness. He was in great pain, racked his brains, and thought exhaustively. After losing most of his brain cells, he finally wrote two poems that were above the passing mark.
As for the policy theory, two sentences were extracted from "The Analects" and asked candidates to write related articles.
This is really too simple. "The Analects of Confucius", every sentence has been tested countless times. Writing related articles is really easy for candidates.
What matters most in the examination is the strategy in the last round, so in Li Qiao's opinion, it is enough that the strategy in this round is above the passing mark.
He picked up the pen and wrote it in one go.
The second exam is over.
Just like at the end of the first session, most of the candidates looked very relaxed. This year’s questions were quite simple.
Meng Yue was very happy and came to Li Qiao's house with Xu Ying in the evening. She smiled so much that her white teeth were exposed: "The question this time is simple. I think I still have hope."
"I think tomorrow's policy topic will definitely be difficult." Li Qiao said and sighed: "I don't want to discourage you, but you think, the first two games are very simple, so how can we widen the gap? You can't compare this time All the tens of thousands of candidates have been admitted.”
"If we want to widen the gap, we can only rely on tomorrow's policy article. Don't you think so?"
