Lian Fangzhou asked Lian Ze to wait here, and walked towards the group of huddled bees gently. A Jian called out "Be careful!" and followed.
Lian Fangzhou's eyes fell under the maple tree, and he sighed softly.
Sure enough, as she expected, there were many dead bees falling on the ground. If there were a few more days, those on the tree would be the same as those on the ground.
"To keep bees, you need a beehive, right? We don't have one right now!" Ah Jian whispered.
"Well," Lian Fangzhou tilted his head to think for a while, and couldn't help but said, "Can we make one off-the-shelf? Well, let's just use bamboo, and pick some big leaves for the bottom?"
Cut the bamboo open, simply cut it into bamboo pieces, without nails to fix it, you can twist it with thin rattan!
It doesn't have to be fancy, or even durable, just enough to keep the bees whole without being startled, and arrange it when you get home! It's winter now, and the bees are slow to move, so it's relatively easy to do.
Hearing what Lian Fangzhou said, Ah Jian nodded and smiled, "Alright! It's easy too!"
Lian Fangzhou was overjoyed, and nodded gratefully to Ah Jian.
Ah Jianjian and Lian Ze went to cut bamboo, and Lian Fangzhou took two small ones to look for tough thin vines that could be used for fixing.
The mountains are rich in resources, everything is ready-made, and soon, all the materials are found.
Several people started at the same time, and Lian Fangzhou gestured for the size of the temporary beehive. After cutting seven or eight pieces of bamboo, Ah Jian began to assemble, and Lian Fangzhou and others continued to cut bamboo pieces.
In just over half an hour, a simple "beehive" was completed!
Large leaves were placed on the bottom and sides. Lian Fangzhou and A Jian approached carefully and carefully packed the entire bee colony in. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good! Let's go back and nail it up with wooden nails, and get some sugar for feeding. As long as the winter is over, it will be fine!" Lian Fangzhou was very happy.
"Let me get it!" Ah Jian took over the simple beehive that Lian Fangzhou was holding in her arms.
Going outside, carefully placed the beehive at the bottom of a bamboo basket, and placed several layers of leaves on the surface, before carefully placing the tree stump in.
At the bottom of the other bamboo basket, prey covered with leaves was placed.
Back at the entrance of the village, Lian Fangqing and Lian Che refused to go back first, and wanted to follow along to plant fruit trees.
Lian Fangzhou thought that although the two of them were young, they could help to help the fruit trees, which would be faster, so he didn't insist on letting them go home.
A few people climbed to the top of Xiaohuaguo Mountain and continued to plant according to yesterday's position.
With two more people helping, the speed is almost twice as fast as yesterday!
On the way home, several people were joking and discussing how to make beehives later. Didn't the bullpen be built a few days ago? On the contrary, there are a lot of planks and nails left, which are all ready-made things.
From a distance, I saw a carriage parked in front of the house, with a half-worn curtain of sapphire blue flowers hanging on it.
"Hey, is there a guest at our house?" Lian Fangqing wondered with her eyes wide open. The little girl searched her brains, but she couldn't figure out when there would be such a guest at home
The cart is pulled by a horse, not a donkey!
Getting closer, even Fangzhou and Ajian saw the character Zhao on the carriage, and they couldn't help but look at each other. Lian Fangzhou was confused and dissatisfied, while Ah Jian was a little annoyed and guilty.
From the looks of it, it must belong to Zhao Rujun's family in the county.
Seventy-eight out of ten it's that girl named "Brother Ah Jian" Magpie again!
Just as Lian Fangzhou finished muttering in his heart, the magpie on the other side had already seen them, and yelled "Brother Ajian" in a sweet voice, and twisted its body like a snake and came towards this side.
Lian Fangzhou felt goosebumps slowly creeping up his body and gradually spreading, Lian Ze felt the same way. Lian Fangqing and Lian Che also felt very uncomfortable, and looked at the magpie with some displeasure.
"Brother Ajian! Why did you come back!" Magpie winked at Ajian and said coquettishly and angrily.
Ah Jian hummed lightly, her face sank and her eyes lowered.
Magpie didn't expect Ah Jian to be so disrespectful in front of others - she is from the Zhao family!
She was a little embarrassed, and turned her head to greet Lian Fangzhou with a smile: "It's Miss Lian..."
Lian Fangzhou gave a soft smile, "Yes", and asked casually, "What's the matter with Miss Magpie coming to my house?"
Without waiting for Magpie's unique words "Brother Ajian", she immediately said again: "It's cold outside, let's talk in the yard!"
The yard is also outside, which is actually as cold as the outside. Lian Fangzhou just doesn't want her to be seen by too many people outside.
At this moment, Magpie only has A-Jian in his heart, so how could he care about anything else? He didn't pay attention to what Lian Fangzhou said, but when he asked her to come in, he agreed with a coquettish smile, twisted his body and deliberately walked beside Ah Jian.
Ah Jian was extremely disgusted in her heart, and frowned, but she didn't know what to do, thinking that fortunately, she didn't have many steps, so she sped up her pace a little.
"What did Brother Ah Jian do? Why did you come back so late? Are you tired?" Magpie asked timidly.
Ah Jian didn't answer.
She wasn't discouraged at all, and she wasn't affected at all, she continued to say softly with a smile: "Brother Ah Jian also needs to take care of his body, what should we do if we are exhausted!"
Having already entered the courtyard while speaking, Ah Jian let out a long breath and said, "What are you talking about?"
The magpie looked at him with a smile, his face flushed before he spoke, a pair of white, tender and slender hands were hanging loosely in front of him, twisting the handkerchief, his pink neck drooped, he paused, then raised his eyes and looked at A Jian with a smile on his face He said softly: "Brother Ah Jian, the day after tomorrow is my birthday, and my young lady, Endian, ordered a private room for me in Donglaifu Restaurant and set up two tables for me to invite friends from inside and outside the house to gather together. Are you free?"
In the beginning, Magpie blurted out that he wanted to marry A Jian in order to complete the task entrusted by Zhao Rujun in desperation, but then for some reason, the more he looked at A Jian, the more pleasing to the eye, and he really fell in love with him!
As soon as I think of Ah Jian, I feel sweet in my heart, my eyes start to go crazy, and the corners of my mouth can't help but turn up!
She felt that Ah Jian must have not discovered her goodness, so she treated her like this!
She believes that one day, he will find her good!
And she had already made up her mind, she stood behind him, silently staring at him back.
Therefore, no matter how Ah Jian treats her, her heart is always hot.
Just like at this moment, after hearing what she said, Ah Jian said without thinking, "I'm not free!" She was not angry or sad either.
"No time? I don't know what brother Ajian is up to?" Magpie resisted the disappointment that came naturally, and hurriedly laughed: "If it's not urgent, I'll go and talk to Miss Lian? How about , I’ll call someone to take over your job? Brother Ah Jian, this is too much for even the family! I’ll just use you so hard! Why don’t you—”
