"Hehehe..." As soon as Yun Duo finished speaking, Xiao Jiu's laughter echoed in Yun Duo's heart. It was particularly smug, like a little mouse that had stolen some oil, making one's teeth itch and one's heart itch with envy.
"What are you laughing at?" Yun Duo rolled her eyes in the darkness.
"Master has suddenly become stupid." Xiao Jiu's voice was still full of laughter.
Yunduo gritted her teeth, but before she could speak, Xiao Jiu's voice came again.
"The same effect as royal jelly can only be achieved after multiple rounds of colony strengthening, by which time Xiao Jiu will have become very powerful. Initially, strengthening the colony has the most significant effect of improving the bees' disease resistance and honey production. As for the composition of the honey, it can only slightly increase the quantity and quality of some beneficial substances in the honey. The effect is better than ordinary honey, but not by much. It can only slightly enhance the efficacy of honey."
"Furthermore, if the master doesn't want to attract too much attention, we can reduce the number of upgrades."
Hearing Xiao Jiu's words, Yun Duo realized that she had been stuck in a rut and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She deliberately hummed and said, "Ah, never mind, it's getting late, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'm so sleepy." After saying that, she closed her eyes and pretended to go to sleep.
Xiao Jiu felt a little helpless. Although it was impossible for it to fully understand its owner's thoughts without communication, it could still tell whether its owner was sleeping or not.
Never mind... anyway, the master is the most important.
Just as Xiao Jiu was about to rest on top of Yun Duo's pillow, Yun Duo suddenly sat up, which startled Xiao Jiu.
"Master, what's wrong?" Xiao Jiu asked cautiously.
"I was thinking, if we really make money in the future, will Grandpa give it to Yun Shuisheng and Yun Wansheng?" Yun Duo scratched her head in frustration and said, "I can tell that although Grandpa is disappointed in them, he still has feelings for them... Right now, we're not doing well, so Grandpa naturally has to take care of us first. But if things get better someday, will Grandpa...?"
Let alone the fact that many families in this area are so patriarchal that it's almost perverse, even in Yun Duo's previous life, in many places, even in very developed ones, family fortunes were actually only left to sons and grandsons. Daughters, well, they'd be pampered a bit and given a generous dowry, but that was it; don't even think about anything else.
Yun Duo wasn't concerned about money; with Xiao Jiu around, she felt she wouldn't lack any. However, what her grandparents spent was theirs to use; they wouldn't mind spending as much as they wanted, or even donate it all to strangers in need—Yun Duo wouldn't feel bad about that either.
But just thinking about giving it to Yun Shuisheng and the others, even though they have nothing right now, makes Yun Duo's heart ache.
"After all, blood is thicker than water. Even if Grandpa divided the money into portions and gave one to each person, I could understand. But Xiao Jiu, I'm not willing to accept it. Just thinking about that scene makes me feel resentful!"
"The money was earned by Xiao Jiu, which means it was earned by the master. Why would Grandpa share the money with others?" Xiao Jiu asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Because I'm too young, I can't possibly have any property of my own. Don't you see that I still don't have a single penny to my name? Besides, I can't tell Grandpa about your existence. No matter how well the bees are raised, he won't think it's my achievement," Yun Duo said, distressed.
"Then let the old man know that it's all thanks to you," Xiao Jiu said matter-of-factly.
