Yun Ling, who had been surviving in the apocalypse, accidentally transmigrated into the youngest daughter of the ancient Yun family. The family had few men, with only her father and crippled grandp...
Yun Da's kick caused a commotion that made several burly men sitting in the courtyard drinking frown. They immediately grabbed the weapons on the table. They had just been released from prison and were not afraid to stab anyone who dared to cause trouble.
Yun Dazhuang, who had intended to go in first and choose a room, quickly took a step back upon seeing this, and Yun Erzhuang and Yun Sanzhuang also hurriedly hid behind Yun Dazhuang.
Aren't you worried about Yunnan University?
He was terribly nervous! If it weren't for the fact that he was the head of the household and couldn't afford to lose face, he would have turned around and run back immediately. Who wants to deal with someone with tattoos on their face?
"Gentlemen, this house belongs to the Yun family. Have you come to the wrong place?"
"Pah! You're the one who's in the wrong place! Your whole family's in the wrong place! This house was bought with my partner's money! Open your dog eyes and see clearly!"
This fellow took out a contract. Yun Da and the others couldn't read, and when they saw the handprint on it, their voices went half-voiceless. It turned out that Yun Er had been planning to move away ever since his mother-in-law fainted from anger before the New Year. He first sold the shop, and after finding a place to settle down in another place, he found a seller to sell the house.
He knew all too well that the eldest son's family were deadly parasites; if he didn't sell the house, they would definitely take it over. And the person who took over couldn't be honest and kind; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to withstand Yun Da and Liu Shi's unreasonable demands, and he would be implicated if he couldn't stay there.
So he spent an extra string of cash, and to put his mind at ease, he had the broker find these tough guys.
Looking at the men in front of her, each as strong as an ox, Liu grabbed Yun Da's sleeve in fear, "Husband, what should we do?"
"What do you mean, what should we do? Go back to the village and farm, otherwise we won't even have any rice seeds to eat this year."
Yun Da immediately set off, fearing that if he was even a step too slow, he wouldn't be able to soak the seeds, cultivate the seedlings, transplant them into the fields, or harvest the millet.

Yunling has already collected the sixth wave of bees, and she plans to pause after collecting this wave.
She planned to put the first three waves in one hive and the last three waves in another, deciding to try keeping two hives first. So when she was collecting the last wave, she pried up the wax block and tried to collect as many of the bees that were reluctant to leave as possible.
With her care, the bee colony gradually stabilized, and she was able to gradually free up her time to cultivate matsutake mushrooms. But one day, as she was searching for some damp soil on the mountain, she saw Yun Chu running up the mountain, panting, calling for her.
"Lingniang, something bad has happened! Those bees are constantly circling around the box. I wonder if they're trying to escape."
Yunling's heart skipped a beat. Fearing she might encounter robbing bees, she hurriedly ran down the mountain. Upon returning home, she immediately rushed to the beehives and carefully inspected them before feeling relieved.
"How are you, Ling-jie? Are you alright?"
Yun Ruoxia stood to the side holding a broom, as if she was ready to drive all the bees back to their boxes at any moment.
"It's alright, these are new bees testing their flight. They'll fly off to collect pollen in a couple of days."
"As long as it's not a runaway."
Yun Ruoxia quickly put down the broom, her movements quite slow, now afraid of hurting the bees.
But this incident made Yunling more cautious. They lived close to the main house, and if bees got into their house, they might suspect them.
Yunling took out the beeswax left over from the last bee-attracting session from the kitchen, lit it slightly, and then ran from her house toward the mountain. Once on the mountain, she used her supernatural ability to draw a route to guide the bees to collect pollen, trying to avoid the main house as much as possible.
Three days later
When the worker bees went out to collect nectar, Yun Ruoxia was happy to see the pollen they brought back, and she worked harder to move the flower pots.
"Ling-jie, can this flowerpot really grow the black-skinned chicken mushroom you mentioned?"
"Of course, this is the only option we have. Once we get a bigger courtyard in the future, we will definitely set aside another room to grow mushrooms."
This was exactly what Yun Ruoxia was thinking. The two hit it off immediately, looked at each other and smiled. Before long, they had placed flowerpots in front of the room and along the edge of the yard, filling every available space. If Xiaobai had been making a fuss, it probably would have even taken over its own nest.
Yunling took out the termite mushrooms she had been carrying, extracted the inoculum, and put them into the flowerpots one by one. Only after she finished did she feel completely relieved. After being tired for so many days, she could finally relax and get a good night's sleep.

Seven days later, Yunling opened the beehive. Both frames were full of bees and honeycomb. Although the honey only covered three to four finger-widths of the beehive, Yunling knew it was time to scrape the honey.
Because it is springtime, a time of abundant honey flow, if the honey is scraped off today, the bee colony can replenish it tomorrow, so there is no need to worry about them not having enough honey to eat.
When her family heard that she could scrape honey, they rushed over with Mi Li to take a look. Yun Chu was terrified, but she wanted to see, so she could only cover her eyes and occasionally peek through her fingers.
"Ling-jie, be careful."
“I understand, Mother.”
Yunling took the spoon Zhang handed her and set it aside. She picked up a slab of honey, gathered her supernatural power in her hand, and vigorously shook off the bees clinging to it. Then, she used the spoon to draw a line, distinguishing between the bees that could be collected and those that couldn't.
Then, use a spoon to slowly scrape the sealed honey into the basin. Compared to immature honey with air pockets, mature honey needs to be scraped off spoonful by spoonful, rather than flowing directly down. Seeing this, Yunling was very confident about this batch of honey.
As the honey was scraped away, Yunling was immediately surrounded by a number of bees. The others were anxious, but because they were also among them, they dared not move and could only tell Yunling to be careful.
Yunling wasn't afraid. She carefully scraped the honey clean so that the bees could rebuild their nest. After repeating this action eight times, she had taken all the honey that could be extracted from the hive. She then added half a foundation stack to each of the two hives before finally covering them with the wooden lids again.
The amount of honey, including the scraps, filled about half a basin, but it also cost a lot of bees, because once bees get into the honey, they can't get away. She should have taken it at night or early in the morning; she was too greedy.
Yunling didn't dwell on it any longer. She filtered the honey through a strainer multiple times and then repeatedly pressed the honey residue. In the end, she could get four small jars of honey. She had already calculated that one jar would go to Master Fu, one to Manager Zhou, and one to the Lu family business that Yun Ruoxia mentioned. They could also get one jar to try.
Zhang excitedly went to prepare warm water, since it was raised by her daughter and she was determined to taste it.
Once the honey is dissolved, a natural floral fragrance fills the air. Taking a sip, you'll find the aroma rich and complex, with the different floral scents blending together to create a layered and delightful experience in your mouth.
"Sister Ling, this honey is sure to sell very well."
