"Xiao Jiu, do you think I'm too bad?"
Yun Dazheng took the beehives home, but Yun Duo didn't want to go back. She made an excuse to go find mushrooms and sat in the woods on the slope, staring blankly at Yun Dazheng's back as she spoke.
"No way! My master is the best!" Yun Duo immediately retorted.
"Hehe..." Yun Duo gave a bitter laugh, reached out and plucked Xiao Jiu from her hair, held it in her palm, and looked at it, saying, "Grandpa and Grandma treat me so well, always thinking of giving me the best, but I have to be wary of them. Can that be considered good?"
"But Master doesn't really want to guard against them! You just want to guard against the bad people in Yun Youtian and Yun Youliang's family!" Xiao Jiu stared at Yun Duo with her big, bee-like eyes. Seeing that Yun Duo was still a little listless, she asked before Yun Duo could speak, "Does Master mean that he will treat your grandpa and grandma badly in the future and abandon them?"
"Of course not!" Yun Duo replied without hesitation.
"That's it. Xiao Jiu believes that in the future, Master will definitely give your grandparents the best he can afford, and he will definitely let them enjoy their old age in peace. Not to mention anything else, at least he will make them much happier than if they lived with their children and grandchildren. So why should Master care about these small details? These are not important things."
"Hmm... that's called a white lie!"
"Besides, Master didn't actually lie. You just didn't tell Grandpa Yun why he never succeeded. Without Master, he wouldn't have succeeded either. Take that time when he put the beehive and bees together in the hive. Even without Xiao Jiu, the bees would have fled. At least with Xiao Jiu around, he wasn't stung. If Xiao Jiu hadn't forbidden the bees from stinging Grandpa Yun, the herbal juice he rubbed on his hands would only have reduced the bees' aggression, but he was about to destroy someone's hive—how could that have stopped them?" Xiao Jiu argued confidently.
Although she knew Xiao Jiu was just trying to comfort her, Yun Duo did feel a little better nonetheless. Yes, no matter what, she would do her best to ensure they could enjoy their later years in peace! As for disappointing Grandpa, she would first apologize in her heart.
I'll make it up to him properly later!
As for now, she has to continue with her white lies.
After figuring it out, Yunduo carried the queen bee that Xiao Jiu had brought home.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, look what I found!" Yun Duo placed the queen bee on a leaf and showed it to Yun Dazheng.
Yun Dazheng hadn't paid much attention at first, but because he was used to following the clouds, he glanced at it subconsciously. He didn't look closely, just glanced at it and then looked away. After a second or two, he realized what was happening and immediately looked at Yun Duo's palm. Seeing that Yun Duo was indeed holding a bee, he became anxious and said, "You child, how can you put a bee in your hand? Throw it away quickly, or it will sting you later!"
As she spoke, she reached out to take the leaf from Yunduo's palm.
"No!" Yun Duo covered the queen bee with her little hand, held it protectively in her palm, and pulled it into her arms. She pouted and said, "As long as Duo'er picks up a bee every day and brings it home, there will be many bees in time."
"And Grandpa, this bee is too big and its wings are too small. I think it will never be able to fly!" Yunduo said, then added happily, "I'm going to put the bee in the hive!" After saying that, she ran away.
“This child…” Yun Da chuckled, but knowing that she was going to put the bees in the beehive, he didn’t stop her anymore.
I just hope that the bee my granddaughter picked up tomorrow either flies away or dies, and that she won't cry.
