Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 210 Honey Barrel

“It doesn’t stink?”

"Silly Chunzhi!" An Yue said and ran away with a smile.

Chunzhi then realized that An Yue was deliberately teasing her.

In this way, An Yue ran in front and Chun Zhi followed behind. Before they knew it, they arrived at the foot of the back mountain.

There are weeds everywhere at the foot of the mountain, including Amaranthus, Plantain, Goose Grass, Dandelion, Grey Soya Bean, Commelina, etc.

Chunzhi squatted down and started cutting goose grass and putting it into the backpack.

An Yue was picking mulberry leaves with a basket on her shoulder. She wanted to pick the leaves first, put them aside, and then dig plantain.

The two of them talked and laughed while working. Time always passed quickly and an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Their backpacks were already full, and An Yue went over to take a peek at the beehive.

They were still flying back and forth to collect nectar, and An Yue decided to go back and cut bamboo to weave a nest barrel.

Just divide the bamboo threads into smaller pieces and weave them tighter.

By the way, it is still unknown whether we can successfully bring them home, so let’s just give it a try!

Seeing that they were still there, An Yue did not approach them again. Instead, she and Chun Zhi carried the baskets back home.

"Chunzhi, when we get home, I'll give you some bamboo to make beehives, and you can go water the wasteland, how about that?"

"Yes, no problem. Chunzhi will listen to you, young lady."

The two returned along the same route and soon returned home.

They walked into the yard and put down their backpacks.

Ba Shi was circling around them. Chunzhi went to the main hall to drink a bowl of water, then went to the kitchen to get a wooden bucket and a ladle, and walked straight to the wasteland on the east side of the yard.

An Yue took the mulberry leaves in the basket and placed them in the east ear room. Then, she pulled the bamboo that she had cut two days ago to the center of the yard.

She took a machete and started to separate the bamboo strips. After separating the bamboo strips, she divided the bamboo strips into thin bamboo threads.

Half an hour later, the preliminary steps for making beehive barrels were ready.

After briefly cleaning the ground, he squatted down and started weaving.

This time, her knitting technique became more and more skillful, and she began to knit according to the model in her mind.

I was concentrating on weaving, and when I looked up, it was almost evening, and the sun was gradually setting in the west.

An Nian came back from school and walked into the yard to see An Yue weaving bamboo silk again.

He held the cloth bag slung over his shoulder and asked, "Sister, what are you weaving this time?"

"Niannian is back! This time she's weaving a beehive." An Yue looked up at An Nian, then continued weaving with her head down.

"What is the beehive used for?" An Yue asked and walked towards his own room.

"It's a barrel for raising bees. If you can successfully raise bees, you can have honey to eat every year!"

After An Nian put the bag away, he quickly ran to An Yue, squatted down, and asked curiously, "Sister, how is honey?"

"Of course, honey is sweeter than sugar men!"

At this time, Chunzhi came back carrying a wooden bucket.

Ba Shi followed Chun Zhi and when he saw An Nian was at home, he ran to An Nian happily, calling "嘤嘤嘤".

Chunzhi smiled and asked, "When did the young master come back?"

"Sister Chunzhi, Niannian just came back too."

An Nian wanted to pick up Ba Shi, but An Yue reminded him, "Niannian, change your clothes first and then pick him up."

"Oh, yes, yes, Niannian forgot to change clothes." After saying this, An Nian went back to his room.

After Chunzhi placed the wooden barrel in the corner of the kitchen, she walked out of the kitchen holding a wooden board in her left hand and a kitchen knife in her right hand.

Seeing that she was about to cut grass for the pigs, An Yue said distressedly, "Chunzhi, watering is tiring, just sit down and take a rest!"

She said with a smile: "Okay, Chunzhi will go and get a stool and sit down."

After saying that, she went to the eaves, brought a small stool and sat down, then put the backpack full of pig grass on the ground, put a small wooden board on the ground, and started cutting the pig grass.

"Silly Chunzhi, you're so tired, I won't care about you!" An Yue said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Miss! Chunzhi is in good health!"

"Okay, okay, then eat more at dinner."

An Yue turned around and saw that An Nian had changed his clothes and was standing under the eaves playing with Ba Shi.

"Niannian, you haven't noticed that there's a new member in our family!"

Although An Yue was talking, her hands never stopped moving.

An Nian stood up, looked around, and asked, "Where is it? Why can't I see Nian Nian?"

"In the pigsty!" Chunzhi turned and said to Annian.

When An Nian heard that the person was in the pigpen, he quickly ran to check.

"Wow! It's a little piglet!" An Nian looked at the pink and tender little piglet and exclaimed excitedly.

"Do you like it?" An Yue asked An Nian with a wicked smile.

"I like it." An Nian ran to Chunzhi, took some wild grass, and fed it to the piglets with great interest.

"Niannian likes it, so you can prepare its pig food tonight!"

After An Yue finished speaking, Chunzhi turned around and smiled at An Yue.

"But I don't know how to make pig food for it every year."

"It's very simple. After Chunzhi has cut the weeds, they need to be poured into the pot and cooked. Then you go and pass the firewood!"

"No problem. Passing firewood is a simple task for Nian Nian."

An Yue wants herself and An Nian to stay awake at all times. It is better to rely on oneself than on others. Only by working hard can one have a good life.

You can't completely let yourself go just because there's one more person helping out in the family. People's laziness often sprouts and grows unconsciously.

An Yue hopes An Nian studies hard, but she doesn't want him to become like her uncle An Tiancai, a nerd who accomplishes nothing, can neither be rich nor noble, and lives a mediocre and cowardly life.

Although Chunzhi was a purchased slave, she was also a normal person with flesh and blood and emotions.

Ever since Chunzhi came home, An Yue has been very kind to her, but Chunzhi has never been arrogant because of her favor.

Instead, I always help out, share various housework, and do what I can. This is also one of the survival skills.

The sun sets and it is dusk.

Chunzhi poured the pig grass into the iron pot that was not often used, added an appropriate amount of water, and then cooked in a pot next to it.

An Nian sat under the stove, managing the firewood in the two stoves.

An Yue was squatting in the yard, weaving a honey barrel.

Three quarters of an hour later, Chunzhi shouted while cooking, "Miss, it's time for us to have dinner!"

An Yue put down the work in her hands, fetched a basin of water to wash her hands, and helped to wipe the table and set the dishes.

As night falls, every household in the village begins to light up their lanterns.

After having dinner around the octagonal table, the family went about their own business.

Chunzhi was responsible for washing and arranging the dishes, while Anyue fed the piglets.

An Nian moved a small stool to the yard, held his dog Ba Shi, and sat leisurely in the courtyard, gazing at the starry sky.

After a while, An Yue and Chun Zhi finished their work, and they came to the yard one after another and sat down.
