The brother and sister hit it off immediately, packed up, left a note and left the inn.
After leaving the city, we headed straight to Shanshan Mountain.
Away from human traces, Su Xiaolu and Su Chong got lucky at the same time and flew lightly up to the treetops, with their toes on the branches of the trees, and they shuttled happily through the forest.
Su Chong was very energetic. When he saw some wild fruits, he flew to pick them for Su Xiaolu to eat.
The two used Qinggong, and Su Xiaolu sorted them into the forest. Su Chong also accompanied them, and they walked together.
In the sparsely populated mountains, Su Xiaolu actually found a few rare medicinal plants, carefully dug them up by the roots, and then planted them in the space.
Walking to a mountain stream, Su Chong discovered a beehive.
Su Xiaolu couldn't help but swallowed: "Brother, wild honey is delicious and has many uses. You make a leaf bag and we collect some honey."
Su Chong nodded and flew away as soon as he was angry.
Su Xiaolu found some medicinal materials around, crushed them into pieces and applied the juice on her face, hands and body.
Su Chong also found banana leaves with large leaves and took two of them back to make a leaf bag.
Su Xiaolu carefully expanded the hive hole.
Bees flew out and wanted to prick her, but they couldn't stand the smell of her body and had to fly away.
The hive is quite large, with more than twenty floors in a small cave in the rock.
After a spring and summer, it is a time of abundance.
Su Xiaolu took out a knife, unfolded it, and cut out a piece of honey. It was sweet, silky, and extremely sweet.
She carefully cut off six pieces of rock and moved the rock back.
Honey is food for bees, so of course she can't cut it all away.
It was enough to cut off a few pieces and restore the entrance of the cave before Su Xiaolu and Su Chong left.
With so much honey, it would weigh several kilograms if refined.
Honey is a good thing. It makes you happy when you eat it. It can also be used as medicine. It can also be used to nourish your skin. Honey is a treasure all over your body.
The two returned home with a full load.
At nightfall, Su Xiaolu and Su Chong returned to the inn. Su Hua and the others hadn't come back yet, so they had dinner together at the inn.
After dinner, we borrowed the small stove in the inn, and Su Xiaolu and Su Chong refined the honey together.
If you eat honey directly, it contains bee venom. If you eat too much, it is not good. If you refine it, the honey will be better and there will be no toxins if you eat it.
Six pieces of honey were extracted, and more than eight kilograms of honey was extracted. Su Xiaolu divided it into one kilogram and one can, and packed it up. After packing it up, she called for hot water to wash.
Not long after I had washed up, Su Hua, Zhou Heng and the others also came back.
Their cheeks were slightly red and they were a little drunk. Su Xiaolu went to make some honey water.
After several people drank it, the drunkenness gradually disappeared.
"Little deer, where did you get the honey?"
Lin Pingsheng asked curiously, this honey water has a mellow taste and is very good.
Did he buy it? It doesn't feel like it. He has also bought honey, but the taste is not as good as this.
Maybe he bought fake honey before. Thinking about it makes him feel bad——
Su Xiaolu said with a smile: "My eldest brother and I went out to the city to collect medicine. We met a beehive and came back with some honey. If I like some of it, I will send a jar to my wife to use back. Honey is a good thing, let my aunt and sister eat it."
Some are also good for your health.”
Lin Pingsheng nodded with a gentle smile: "Okay, thank you Xiaolu for your kindness, I will accept it shamelessly."
The children of the Su family really grow fonder the more I watch them. After several years of contact, I can’t say enough about the good character of this family.
It's a pity that he has no children and no woman of the right age to marry him, otherwise he would have to fight for it no matter what.
After sobering up a lot, Su Hua looked at Su Chong and asked, "Brother, is Zijin back?"
Liu Zijin went with them, but later separated without noticing.
They searched around but gave up when they couldn't find it.
Liu Zijin might have avoided them because they didn't know why, but that was his wish, and they respected him and asked about him when he came back. After all, they were friends.
Su Chong shook his head: "He hasn't come back yet. Isn't he with you?"
Liu Zijin didn't come back, where could he go?
Su Chong frowned.
Lin Pingsheng sighed and said, "It's okay. He's not a child anymore. It's not like he doesn't understand anything. When it comes to making friends, just let nature take its course."
Thinking about it, Lin Pingsheng knew that Liu Zijin deliberately avoided them when they were outside.
Several children really regarded Liu Zijin as their friend.
But people always have their own choices and their own paths to take, so just let everything go.
Su Chong, Su Hua and Zhou Heng are also smart people. They are very clear and they are not talking about this matter.
It was getting late, so everyone tidied up and then went back to their houses to sleep.
——
At this time, Liu Zijin was still at the county magistrate's residence.
All the students left, but he did not leave. Magistrate Wang did not hold him accountable for hiding his fault and did not leave. Instead, he invited him to the main hall for a secret talk.
Ask him what he wants to do?
Liu Zijin did not hide it, but bluntly stated his purpose.
He is willing to recommend himself as his son-in-law and marry Wang Huilan as his wife. He also makes a solemn oath that he will only have Wang Huilan as his wife in this life. His eldest son and daughter are all destined to be Wang Huilan. He will never have concubines in the future.
Let the status of concubine rise to Wang Huilan's head.
The son of Wang Huilan can take his mother's surname.
Liu Zijin confessed himself to County Magistrate Wang for his consideration and pricing.
After listening to Liu Zijin's words, Magistrate Wang pondered, and after a while he said: "Liu Zijin, the terms you offered are very tempting, but you can endure what ordinary people cannot endure. You must have great ambitions in your heart.
You are just trapped for a moment, how can I guarantee that in the future when you become successful, you will not turn against me and retaliate mercilessly against my Wang family?"
Magistrate Wang was very happy that Liu Zijin was willing to marry his daughter, and the child would still follow the mother's will from now on. The Wang family only temporarily protected Liu Zijin and provided him with nutrients for his growth.
Mutual benefit and mutual use, but Liu Zijin was so calm and purposeful, which made Magistrate Wang very worried.
If Liu Zijin becomes prominent in the future and comes back to take revenge on the Wang family, he will be full-fledged at that time. He is just a small county magistrate and his family has some money. If Liu Zijin becomes prominent, he will not be able to fight against Liu Zijin.
Facing the worried Magistrate Wang, Liu Zijin looked at Magistrate Wang without squinting and answered: "The problem that you are worried about is too far away. Even if it is not me, other people will still have this worry. No matter what, it will be a disaster."
Gambling is all about conscience and character, and other people may have a large family behind them, but I am different. My family has a big feud with me, and my only relative is my mother."
"As long as Wang Huilan treats my mother well, I will not retaliate. People are not grass and trees, and sincerity is replaced by sincerity. Now I dare not say how much feelings I have for Wang Huilan, but in the day-to-day relationship, I dare not say that I will
No feelings." Liu Zijin was very calm and confident. Compared with others, he would not lose.
