Chapter 16 Honey
The father and daughter moved the things that had been divided on the ground to the two families, and the grandfather and his four companions also came along to help.
After the things were delivered to the house, the two stayed for a while.
My great-grandfather and second grandfather also asked if there was enough money to build the farm. If not, they still had some savings and would go to withdraw them tomorrow.
I declined the old man's offer and said that if I didn't have enough money, I would ask Chen Mingpeng to help me. It was already agreed!
Only then did they nod in relief and let the father and daughter go back and rest early.
When I got home, Zhou Ruolan was editing a video. Seeing that she was in high spirits, I didn't disturb her.
She brought her grandparents and dad into the space. She was responsible for washing the eggs, and her grandmother was responsible for pickling the eggs.
Coat the washed eggs with a layer of high-proof liquor and a layer of salt, put them in a container, seal it, and let it sit for a month.
Grandpa and dad are responsible for making preserved eggs. They dissolve alkali and salt in boiling water, add lime and wood ash and mix them together, then add rice husks and wheat bran to wrap the eggs and put them in a jar.
After finishing all these, they found that the honey was ready to be harvested. Several people wrapped themselves tightly and started harvesting the honey according to the method taught by grandpa.
What bees produce are all good things, including honey, royal jelly, propolis, bee pollen, bee venom, and beeswax, all of which are used in making medicine.
Bee pupae are delicious, and she plans to fry a plate for her girlfriends to try tomorrow night.
The honey produced is also multi-floral honey, and there are various flowers in the space for the bees to collect.
This time, she produced more than 300 kilograms of honey, and she plans to buy a batch of glass bottles to store the honey tomorrow.
Give a few bottles to the grandfathers and let them try it.
The next day, Li Guoer went to the wholesale market early in the morning and bought various sizes of glass bottles, jars, pots, vats, wine bottles and other containers.
When the car is full, I find a place where no one is around to put it in, then go to another store to buy more, and make several trips back and forth.
There is no way around it. The output at home is increasing and it all needs to be stored in containers.
When I came back, I saw two cars parked in the yard. One of them was Uncle Chen's G-Class, judging by the license plate, and the other was a Mercedes-Benz SUV without a license plate, which looked like it was newly bought.
Just as she was curious, she heard Uncle Chen, Chen Dewei, advising Li Xuezhu: "Hurry up and sign all the contracts. The car has been bought and the money has been paid. I've brought the salesperson here. If you don't sign, won't it be embarrassing for them?"
When entering the house, Grandpa Chen also tried to persuade him, saying that if Dad Li didn't want it, it meant he didn't recognize him as his godfather. The two sides were engaged in a tug-of-war, with Dad Li, as the defeated party, signing the contract.
"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, how long have you been here?" Li Guoer smiled and greeted them warmly.
"You've only been here for a short time! Is Xiaoguoer out busy?" asked grandmother Zhao Bing with a smile.
While talking with the Chen family, I heard someone outside asking, "Is this Li Guoer's house?"
"Yes, this is my home." Li Guoer replied loudly as she walked towards the door.
I was a little surprised to see the people coming. There were five people in the group, two old people, two young people and a child, carrying large and small bags of gifts.
She recognized the old lady and the child; they were the people she had rescued in the city that day.
Although he was a little surprised at why they came to his house, he still greeted them: "Old lady, why are you here? Come in quickly."
The old lady said affectionately, "My benefactor, you should have come to thank me a few days ago. It's not that I'm not in good health and have been hospitalized for a few days. It's really rude to wait until today to come."
The old man's face was still a little pale, probably because of the fright he got that day.
She called out, "Old lady, please stop calling me benefactor and just call me Guo'er. Come on, everyone, come inside!"
The old lady responded and pointed to their car parked in an open space on the side and asked, "Guo'er, is it okay to park the car there?"
Li Guoer shook her head and said it was okay, then invited them into the house.
