25. Butter II

After finishing making the coffee grounds, Zheyan, Lilian, and Artem returned to the butter-making grounds. Upon arrival they immediately ordered the servants to take the container containing ice earlier.

"Fill half of the container with water and ice cubes, then soak the container with cream in it, leave the container until the cream feels cold to the touch." Lilian.

The waiter moved quickly according to orders from Lilian. Then after the cream was cold, Lilian ordered the waiters to put the cream into a small container and have a tight cover and then shake the container containing the cream for 5 to 12 minutes. Then Lilian ordered the servants to shake the cream tightly until the weight was increased.

"Put some cloth over the bowl and pour the butter over the cloth, pour the liquid as well as the solid butter formed in the container into the bowl through a cloth-coated filter, wash the butter left on the filter with ice water and pull the entire corner of the cloth up until a bag of butter is formed, and then soak the bag in a bowl of ice water, lift and soak the bag continuously for about 30 seconds." Obviously Lilian long.

The servants immediately moved as Lilian instructed. Then he ordered the servants to wash the butter back in a new bowl of iced water.

"Keep washing the butter until the water color is clear again, knead the butter with a wooden spoon and put the solidified butter into a small container, leave until there's no liquid left at the bottom of the container." Lilian.

Lilian sighed softly when she saw her work was almost done, her body crumbling from too much activity.

"It's finally over soon." Lilian.

"Is it all done?" Ask Zheyan.

"If the waiters are done kneading the butter, the last step is to put the butter in the container and close it tightly after that we just have to wait for it to be a few weeks." Lilian.

Zheyan and Asgar simply nodded at Lilian's words. Actually they don't understand what they're doing. It felt like they asked but seeing the spirit of Lilian made them undo the intention to ask and give the girl a chance.

For both of them it is okay to lose in that festival because in reality every year they will lose as well. So they let Lilian do what she likes.

As Zheyan and Asgar dissolved into their respective minds, Lilian suddenly withdrew her second hand.

"Let's go.Why are you still standing and not moving." Said Lilian who was still pulling her second hand.

"Where are we going?" Asgar asked confusedly.

"Yes...we want to go home, all the work is done, do you not want to rest?" Lilian asked confusedly.

"His job done?" Zheyan asked confusedly.

"Just look at it." Said Lilian as she pointed at him with her chin.

"Oh, it's done." Zheyan and Asgar said.

"You're too cool to daydream." Lilian

Zheyan and Asgar just smiled clumsyly realizing their respective follies.

"Then Brother comes home first, tomorrow Brother will be here again." Asgar Say.

"Yes, that's it." Lilian.

After Asgar returned to his residence, Zheyan and Lilian returned to their respective rooms to rest.

Arriving Lilian to her room, she immediately took off her clothes and soaked in a tub that had been given the scent of daisy flowers. Lilian inhaled the scent that always kept her calm deeply.

"The smell of this flower makes me feel refreshed even though it has been a lot of activity all day." Inner Lilian closed her eyes.

After a while, Lilian came out of the bath and put on her nightgown.

"Rosa can you make me a drink that helps relieve aches? My body feels so sick all." Said Lilian as she just came out of the bathroom.

"None right." Said Rosa and went straight out of Lilian's room.

Lilian lay on her bed and closed her eyes. When his eyes were still closed Lilian felt her body being massaged by someone.

"Rosa you're so good, my body hurts all." Said Lilian while still closing her eyes.

"Don't force you too hard Lilian." Heavy voice speech.

Lilian then opened her eyes and was shocked to see her two masters in front of her. Lilian thought that the one who had her hands and feet was Rosa, her mother.

"Mom don't scold me anymore." Lilian said as she let go of her mother's hand.

"Stypify mother..." Said Lilian who was instantly cut by Duke Marven.

"Let your mother scold you." Duke Marven.

Lilian glanced at her father who was sitting at the end of the bed. "Good dad." Pause.

"Dad knows you're very excited about this festival but you also have to know where your limits are, dad allowed you to prove the truth of your words but I didn't allow you to get sick like this." Duke Marven.

"Dad...Lilian is fine really, just need to rest a little tomorrow morning also must have been refreshed." Said Lilian with a smile.

"Your father is right, dear." Illyria said softly, "You don't have to force yourself, if you're sapped then take a few days' rest." Further.

"Lilian is okay mom, besides all the ingredients Lilian needs are available all just processed into food and drink, tomorrow dad and mom don't go anywhere first." Lilian.

"Why?" Ask Duke Marven.

"The chocolate and coffee powder is ready to make drinks, Lilian plans to make them tomorrow." Lilian said happily.

"Chocolate and coffee?" Illyria asked confusedly.

Lilian nodded happily. "The fruit of the cacao tree in our plantation has been Lilian turned into cocoa powder and the coffee fruit from Prince Seint's plantation has been converted into coffee powder, they will all come tomorrow." Lilian.

"The Crown Prince will also be here?" Ask Duke Marven.

"Yes...Artem and Brother Asgar too." Lilian.

"They'll also be tasting the drink?" Ask Illyria.

"Of course, Prince Seint is working with me and as the owner of the estate he must taste his drink before we sell." Lilian.

"You seem to have been very close lately to Prince Seint." Duke Marven said curiously.

"Of course we're close, we're co-workers so of course we'll see each other often." Said Lilian casually.

"Um..if only.ini.if only, if, if Prince Seint liked you what would you do." Duke Marven asked curiously.

Lilian seemed to think for a while then looked at the father and mother who were looking at her with curious gazes, "What's the matter?" Ask Lilian.

"Dad only said that if you were, just answer." Illyria.

Lilian patted her chin slowly. "If she likes me, that's okay, people's right to like anyone." Lilian.

"What do you think the Crown Prince is like?" Ask Duke Marven.

"He's so annoying, cold, flat, and cranky, but because he has a handsome face so be it." Said Lilian while imagining Prince Seint's face.

"Can it be for what?" Duke Marven asked curiously.

"May be a couple, if everywhere is not shy because it looks." Said Lilian as is.

Duke Marven and Illyria smiled at each other at the words of his daughter. Lilian who saw him became even more confused.

"What's with their smiles?" Inner Lilian.

"Oh yes.this drink that was made by Rosa, drink and rest so that tomorrow morning you grow back fresh." Said Illyria and gave the drink to her daughter.

Lilian received her drink and gulped it down until there was nothing left.

"We go first yes.now you rest." Illyria said and pulled out a blanket to cover her daughter's body and stroked her head slowly.

After both of her parents came out of her room, Lilian then closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
