Yun Duo was hit by a giant egg that fell from the sky and transported to another world's 1960s. Upon opening her eyes, she was about to be sold as a child bride to a fool. After narrowly escapi...
“Grandma won’t let go.” Yun Duo pouted and tugged at Yun Dazheng’s sleeve, shaking it vigorously. She seemed determined not to let go until Yun Dazheng gave in.
Yun Da was both amused and exasperated, and at a loss for what to do with Yun Duo, he could only say with a headache, "Fine, fine, I'll do as you say, okay? You child, you're going to tear Grandpa's sleeve off."
"Hehe..." Yun Duo made a face at Yun Dazheng triumphantly and said, "Grandpa, it's a deal. You have to wait for me and we'll go together to harvest the honey. Otherwise, if you agree and then go back on your word, I'll definitely cry in front of you."
Yun Dazheng chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Alright, alright, I won't go back on my word. Do you think Grandpa is like a child who would go back on his word? But let's make this clear first, even if you're going to watch from the sidelines, you can only watch Grandpa do it. You're not allowed to do it yourself, understand?"
Yun Duo made a face again and said, "Duo'er never goes back on her word." Saying that, she let go of Yun Dazheng's sleeve, waved to him, and said, "Then Grandpa, go ahead and get busy. Duo'er is going back too." After Yun Dazheng agreed, she skipped away.
"This child." Yun Dazheng shook his head again upon seeing him, but his face was full of doting smiles as he happily went to find the bee-repelling herbs he wanted.
Yun Duo brought Yun Qi a stool and a fan, and also specially brought a bamboo tube of honey water for Yun Qi.
Anyway, they're going to harvest honey now, so keeping some for their own consumption is perfectly fine.
Xiao Jiu hid under Yun Duo's hair ribbon, watching Yun Da prepare to cut the comb. After a while, she slowly said, "Master, I think you should think of a way to remind your grandfather that it would be best to make a special bucket for shaking honey. Otherwise, if the comb is cut every time, it will delay the bee colony's honey production."
"I know," Yun Duo replied, continuing to pound the herbs Yun Dazheng had collected while worrying in her heart, wondering how to tell Yun Dazheng that using beehives to extract sugar was better than directly cutting the combs.
Bees spend a lot of time building their nests and making combs. The more time they spend on the combs, the less time they can spend on the honey. She could understand this principle. But what could she do? The original owner of the body she had taken over was an illiterate person who had never been to school. Otherwise, she could have claimed that she had learned it from books.
Hmm? You read that in a book? Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in Yun Duo's mind—she had a solution!
Just then, Yun Dazheng walked over, glanced at the herbs in the mortar, and said to Yun Duo, "Alright, Duo'er, that's about enough. Put some on your hands, then go and tie your trouser legs tightly, and tuck the hem of your clothes into your trousers. Tie it with a rope to prevent bees from getting into your clothes. Grandpa will come and tie your sleeves for you in a bit."
Yun Da had been staying at the beekeeper's apiary for a few days, so he knew these basic things that could be seen with his own eyes.
Although she knew she wouldn't get stung by bees and that everything she was doing was pointless, Yun Duo obediently nodded and then found some thin hemp rope to tie her trouser legs. After tying her own, she squatted down to help Yun Da Zheng, who was applying herbal juice to his hands, face, and neck, tie his trouser legs.
Yun Dazheng did not refuse, but he felt comforted. After applying the herbal medicine, Yun Dazheng helped Yun Duo tie her sleeves tight, and then took out the special hat with a veil that Yun Qi had made before, and was about to put it on Yun Duo.
