"Hmm." Yun Duo was also quite surprised, but she nodded and said seriously, "If Aunt doesn't believe me, you can take out the honeycomb inside and take a look. The honeycomb of our own bees is not quite the same as that of wild bees. You'll know as soon as you see it."
Upon hearing Yun Duo's words, the servant immediately took the earthenware jar to the window, opened the lid, and looked inside. There were many square honeycomb blocks inside, each the same size and a bright yellow-orange color, completely different from wild honeycomb.
The maid's joy grew even more evident. She quickly walked to the old lady's side and whispered, "Old lady, I'm going to call the master." Then she turned and hurried out the door. Soon, there was a knocking sound outside the door, indicating that the maid had run out as soon as she stepped out.
Yun Duo and Du Ling exchanged glances, and at the same time, a glimmer of hope rose in Yun Duo's heart. It seemed that their own honeybee was very important to them? Did that mean the matter of the broken earthenware jar should be easily resolved? Perhaps they could even get some justice?
It must be said that Yun Duo's idea was indeed correct. In less than twenty minutes, a middle-aged man with a very faint scar across both sides of his face, who looked very imposing and was clearly in a position of power, hurriedly walked into the room. As soon as he entered, his eyes swept across the room, and his sharp, hawk-like eyes locked onto Yun Duo.
Black Panther took a long stride and walked up to Yun Duo, but squatted down and looked at Yun Duo, asking, "Is your family beekeeping?" Perhaps because the little girl in front of him was too young and he was afraid of scaring her, Black Panther deliberately softened his voice.
Of course, he thought he had eased things considerably. To everyone else, including Yun Duo, it felt incredibly oppressive.
Even with two lifetimes of experience, Yun Duo was still just an ordinary person. She couldn't help but feel afraid of the middle-aged man, Black Panther, who was clearly no good. Especially since he was right in front of her, so close, and although he was crouching, his fierce eyes were staring straight at her… The fact that Yun Duo didn't scream out of fright was a testament to her exceptional mental fortitude.
Seeing that the girl in front of him didn't answer him, Black Panther got a little anxious, and his brows furrowed unconsciously.
Yun Duo felt her heart pounding in her throat. She quickly suppressed her panic, looked at the black panther, and nodded vigorously. She was speechless at that moment.
"Great!" Black Panther was overjoyed and looked at Yun Duo directly, saying, "I want all of your royal jelly, as much as you have, and you can name your price. From now on, in Qingping County, I, Black Panther, will protect your whole family. You can do whatever you want."
"Heizi..." A weak voice echoed in the room, so soft that it was almost inaudible if you weren't paying attention.
Black Panther seemed to have a radar for detecting sounds. Almost as soon as a sound was heard, he quickly went to the bedside and asked cautiously but with great concern, "Mom, what's wrong? Is something making you feel uncomfortable?" As soon as he spoke, Black Panther's expression became tense.
The old woman shook her head with difficulty and said weakly in a low voice, "Don't make things difficult for the little girl, it's not that easy..." As she spoke, she stretched out a withered and thin hand and tentatively grasped the black leopard.
Black Panther quickly grasped the old lady's hand and solemnly assured her, "Mom, don't worry, I won't make things difficult for her. If she has any, I'll offer a high price to buy it; if not..." Black Panther paused slightly, then continued, "She definitely will. They are beekeepers; they'll always find a way."
