Around 5 p.m., Wang Feng came to the house to pick up the royal jelly. He first handed the cup containing the royal jelly, along with the ice box, to Yun Duo, and then, familiar with the place, went into the main room of the Yun family's house to wait for Yun Dazheng to pour him some water.
As usual, Yun Dazheng poured honey water for Wang Feng, put down the cup, and then started discussing things with Wang Feng.
"Brother Wang, I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Do you think that's alright?" Yun Dazheng tentatively asked.
Wang Feng first took a sip of the sweet honey water before speaking: "Grandpa, just say what's on your mind. As long as you're not telling me that your family won't be able to sell royal jelly anymore, everything is negotiable."
"Yes, definitely," Yun Dazheng said with a smile. Seeing Wang Feng's questioning look, he continued, "How about this, could you please come earlier to collect the royal jelly? Like... before four o'clock, is that alright?"
"Before four o'clock?" Doesn't that mean leaving at three o'clock? That's the hottest time of day... Wang Feng was a little unhappy. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Grandpa, I've been coming to collect royal jelly at this time every day recently, and I haven't seen you have any problems. Why does it have to be before four o'clock from now on? Is there something wrong?"
"There is something." Yun Dazheng nodded and said, "We've made a little money thanks to Leopard, so we were thinking of sending my little granddaughter to school for a couple of years so she can learn to read. But as you know, although the world is relatively peaceful now, I'm really worried about letting my little Duo'er walk more than ten miles home by herself every day. So I'm thinking of picking her up from school every day."
“I asked the teacher, and they say school ends at six o’clock. I should leave for school around four-thirty, otherwise it will be too late. That’s why I’m discussing the timing of collecting royal jelly with you.”
"You know, to preserve it for a longer time, we put the royal jelly in an icebox as soon as we take it out. So, I don't dare to take it out in advance and leave it for you to pick up. But if I'm not here, my wife has to do it, and I'm not comfortable with that."
“I see…” Wang Feng thought for a moment and said, “Grandpa, your request is not unreasonable, but the time was set by our Master Leopard… Otherwise, I’ll go back and talk to Master Leopard about this. As for whether it will work out or not, it depends on whether Master Leopard agrees.”
Then she asked, "By the way, when will your little cloud start going to school?"
"The day after tomorrow," Yun Dazheng said.
Wang Feng nodded and said, "There's still time. I'll give you an answer the day after tomorrow, whether it works out or not."
Yun Dazheng said politely, "Then I'll really trouble you. Please put in a good word for us with Master Leopard. It's not that I want to change the time casually, but there's a scheduling conflict. Please understand, Master Leopard. After all, there are only a few people in our family, and we really can't do anything about it..."
After Wang Feng agreed, Yun Dazheng naturally expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
Yun Duo brought over the royal jelly and just then heard Yun Dazheng expressing his gratitude. After Wang Feng left with the royal jelly, Yun Duo asked, "Grandpa, what did you just say to Brother Wang? I heard you thanking him over and over again."
