Chapter 102 The Aroma of Peach

Picking honeycombs with bare hands is definitely not acceptable.

Today is only one morning, and she only intends to take Zhang Shuangzhu for a walk in the mountains, first to find out where there are beehives, and before picking the beehives to lure the honey back, she has to prepare the beehives first.

Today is to explore the road. In the afternoon, Zhang Shuangzhu will go up the mountain alone to find the beehive. As long as he checks the location of the beehive a few times, they will bring the beehive to attract the bees.

By the way, look again to see where there is a suitable place to keep bees.

"I just took you around the mountains this morning. You are familiar with the terrain. In the next few days, you will have to go into the mountains to find the beehives."

Zhang Shuangzhu was taken aback: "I go into the mountain by myself?"

"What? Are you afraid? I have walked through this mountain several times, and I have never seen any beasts."

Zhang Shuangzhu wasn't afraid, he just didn't understand why Jiang Zhinuan asked him to go into the mountains alone?He also can't pick beehives with bare hands. I believe everyone has tried the bees' power, and they can bear a sting. If they attacked in groups, would he die?

"We agreed on beekeeping, you can't kill me!"

Jiang Zhinuan laughed with a snort: "Brother Shuangzhu, you're thinking too much, you just need to go into the mountains to find the beehives, mark the beehives, and remember the location, so we can bring beehives to collect bees later."

"It's just that simple?"

Jiang Zhinuan nodded: "Of course, picking beehives requires safety measures. I'll make arrangements this afternoon."

She has already made up her mind that she will go to the town to buy linoleum cloth in the afternoon. She will use the linoleum cloth to make a raincoat from head to toe that can be used in the water. Although it is not breathable, it is thick. Honeycomb, bees are absolutely impervious to stings.

Hearing what Jiang Zhinuan said, Zhang Shuangzhu felt relieved.

The two of them walked deep around the mountains. Jiang Zhinuan used sharp stones to draw marks on the tree trunks while walking. Everywhere in the deep mountains looked the same.

Jiang Zhinuan was thinking about the time, and after picking a basket of mushrooms, he said to Zhang Shuangzhu: "Brother Shuangzhu, look inside again, I have to go back to make lunch first, and wait until you look at the time, when the sun is about to hit , you go back and rush back to eat."

Zhang Shuangzhu nodded. With Jiang Zhinuan, he had to take into account Jiang Zhinuan's speed. She could go back first, and he could walk in quickly with his legs alone.

Things like beehives are more common in deep mountains and old forests.

They walked on the periphery all the way, not looking at any of them.

Before leaving, Jiang Zhinuan took out the long machete in his back basket and handed it to Zhang Shuangzhu. Who knows if there will be any large wild animals like wild boars in this deep mountain and old forest. He still carries the machete alone. Self-defense is better.

After telling Zhang Shuangzhu to be safe, Jiang Zhinuan returned the same way.

By the time the reeds were swaming, Uncle Zhang had already helped Di Qing clean up the five wild ducks.

When he was in the thatched cottage last time, Jiang Zhinuan had already successfully roasted a crispy roast duck, and now it is easy to do it again. He dug a hole by the river, hung the marinated duck and roasted it.

From time to time, brush a layer of honey on the skin of the duck. When the duck is roasted, it will be ruddy in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

The master craftsmen who were working above to build the house could smell the aroma of the roast duck from a distance, and they were so greedy that they drool.

"I didn't expect that Jiang girl would have such good cooking skills."

"Yeah, this is too fragrant!"

"Young girl Jiang is so generous. Where are we going to work? Have we eaten such a good meal?"

"Yeah, we have to work hard!"

When the wild ducks were roasting, Zhang Shuangzhu also came back, and he brought good news to Jiang Zhinuan. Not long after Jiang Zhinuan left, he found three large beehives in the deep mountains inside.

After Jiang Zhinuan listened to Zhile, he waved his hands to tell everyone to wash their hands and eat.

I didn't have time to make glutinous rice balls today, and today I just ate ducks. She made another pot of vegetable and egg drop soup to relieve everyone's boredom.

Jiang Zhinuan was afraid that they would eat with everyone as the host, and everyone would not let go, so he took a wild duck and took the two children back to the cabin to eat with Di Qing. The masters outside followed Uncle Zhang and his son. It's old men, and they don't pay much attention to how they eat. Four roast ducks and seven old men eat their mouths full of oil.

Another bowl of vegetable and egg drop soup was served, and each of them stroked their stomachs contentedly.

"Father, I finally understand why you want to keep him at home. You have taken a liking to his cooking skills!"

Uncle Zhang gave him a reproachful look: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Jiang Zhinuan only heard hearty laughter from the masters outside, poked his head out for a look, and then came back: "Eat quickly, An Bao and Ning Bao will take a nap after eating, and play in the afternoon."

"Good~"

After they finished eating, Jiang Zhinuan went out to clean up, and asked the masters to find a cool place to sit down and rest for a while.

The masters all ate until their stomachs were round, and they were too embarrassed to rest at the moment, so they just relieved the food in their stomachs and went up to work again.

Uncle Zhang had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he took a gourd of mountain spring water and followed his son into the mountains to look for beehives.

When Jiang Zhinuan finished packing and returned to the cabin, Di Qing had already put the two children to sleep.

Last night, Di Qing almost stayed up all night, just about to close his eyes and take a rest when Jiang Zhinuan leaned over.

"Do you want to rest?"

Di Qing raised her eyes to look at her, Jiang Zhinuan bent over and leaned half of her body over, especially a face, close in front of her eyes, the tip of her nose was almost touching the tip of her nose.

He subconsciously shrank his head back, his face turned red.

"what happened?"

"Are you going to rest?" Jiang Zhinuan sprayed on his cheeks while speaking with a peach-like sweet breath.

Sometimes he is curious, she does a lot of work every day and sweats a lot every day, why doesn't her body smell like sweat?During the few close encounters, he could only smell the faint peach fragrance on her body.

Seeing that Di Qing seemed to be distracted, Jiang Zhinuan stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes.

"what?"

Di Qing was taken aback, Jiang Zhinuan had no choice but to ask again: "Are you taking a lunch break?"

Asking him such words, Di Qing already guessed that Jiang Zhinuan must have something to do with him, so he cheered up and shook his head: "No, what do you want to do with me?"

Hearing that Di Qing didn't want to rest, Jiang Zhinuan's eyes lit up immediately!

She did have something to help Di Qing. She wanted to set up a bee farm, but she hadn't had time to tell Di Qing before. Uncle Zhang's son had arrived today, so it was time for her to tell Di Qing about her plan.

When she said that she bought the jar of honey for a tael of silver, Di Qing became restless.

He looked at Jiang Zhinuan in disbelief: "Just to eat a roast duck, you spent a tael of silver on honey?"
