Chapter 196

Everything is found.

Xu Sanniang put the ladder on the willow tree where the bees rested, and then climbed up gently.

First, place the vegetable basket upside down on top of the huddle of bees and secure it with a rope. Then put the cloth over the outside of the basket, covering both the basket and the bees, and then blow on the fire.

A small flame shined under the cloth cover, shining a little light. Xu Sanniang swept the bees gently and carefully with a brown brush, while whispering "Queen Bee Sit", and slowly swept the grouped bees into the vegetable basket.

This was a slow and meticulous job. Qingyu and the others stood under the tree and looked up. They didn't know how long they had to wait, but their eyes were dazzled before they saw Xu Sanniang sweeping all the bees into the vegetable basket.

Finally, Xu Sanniang wrapped the entire basket tightly with cloth and came down the ladder with a basket of bees in her arms.

She moved very softly, spoke even softer, and said to Shi'an: "This bee must be put into the hive quickly."

"I'm going to buy a honeycomb. There should be some in the bird market." Shi'an said as he walked out.

When Xu Sanniang saw that he had a child, she said to Xu Ying, "You go with me."

Xu Ying didn't need her to remind him and was about to follow him. He responded and followed Shi An's footsteps.

Xu Sanniang said to Qingyu again: "Before this bee nests, it must be placed in a cool place."

Qingyu understood and took Xu Sanniang into the inner courtyard. The main room was ventilated and cool, so Xu Sanniang hung the bee basket upside down in the main room.

After hanging it up, Xu Sanniang smiled and said to Qingyu: "Your family will definitely have good luck this year, and you can also eat honey next year."

Qingyu poured a cup of tea for Xu Sanniang and brought out a plate of snacks. Then she poured herself a cup of tea and ate while waiting for Shi'an and Xu Ying.

Xu Sanniang felt pity for Qingyu when she saw that she was small and cute, so she smiled and talked to her.

"How old are you this year, kid?"

"Nine years old."

"You are nine years old, so you are too thin. Children are growing up. They need to eat more, but they cannot be picky eaters."

Qingyu nodded with a serious expression, "I think so too." Then she picked up another snack.

Xu Sanniang also took a sip of tea and sighed: "Your home is so beautiful."

"Bought cheaply." Qingyu smiled.

Xu Sanniang touched the money in her arms. She had saved some money for herself in the early years. Although that person also gave her money in these years, in her heart, in order to gain some reputation for herself, in fact, a copper coin was of no use.

In the early years, Xu Ying spent a lot of money to study. Later, she subsidized her family by selling tofu, so she saved some money. But now she can't buy another yard with this little money.

.

In the future, the child will continue to study. This money, even a copper coin, cannot be spent carelessly.

Xu Sanniang also knew that the houses nearby were expensive, so she thought that she would have to move to an outer area. The place had to be quiet and clean, and she couldn't disturb her son's studies.

She was immersed in her own problems, while Qingyu was eating snacks, drinking tea and reading a book. The two waited in silence for nearly two moments before Shi'an and Xu Ying came back holding a beehive.

Xu Sanniang started nailing the hive to the wall again, and then carefully introduced the bees into the hive. After finishing her work, she told Shi'an: "Feed them some sugar in the first few days, and slowly mature them so that they will not run away again."

Shi'an turned around and went to the kitchen to put a small dish of sugar out. Xu Sanniang carefully put it into the honeycomb. Then Shi'an called Xu Ying again, and the two of them pulled the Xu family's belongings into the courtyard through the back door.

The backyard has an outer gate and an inner gate. The space between the inner and outer gates is equivalent to the outer backyard. The well is here, and it is also where the other three households in Jiuqu Li draw water.

Seeing that there was a well in the courtyard, Xu Ying couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect your home to be so beautiful. It's much better than the small courtyard I lived in before."

Shi'an joked: "This place is haunted."

Xu Ying thought for a moment and said, "When you mention it like that, it reminds me of it. Jiuquli was quite haunted before. I even came to see it in person. At that time, the whole alley was very gloomy and really scary. It was completely different from now."

.”

But then I thought about it, and realized that the boy in front of me could tell fortunes, and his sister could tell fortunes, so I was not surprised at all. I just sighed, "I am very lucky to meet your family."

"We just met by fate." Shi'an said with a smile.

Xu Ying was led into the inner courtyard through the back door. He passed by a chicken cage on the way. When Xu Ying saw it, he remembered that there were still chickens and ducks on Honghua Street, so after entering the inner courtyard, he met Shi An and Qing Yu.

We said goodbye for now, and then went back to Honghua Street with Xu Sanniang to catch chickens and ducks, and returned the trolley by the way.

After Xu Ying and Xu Sanniang left, Shi Ancai told Qing Yu what had happened, "...the two of them left in a hurry, and it was troublesome to find a place to live, so I asked them to come and stay at home first."

Qingyu thought for a while, "There are also two penthouses and six side-seat rooms. Xu Sanniang can live in the penthouse, and let her be next to my mother-in-law. Xu Ying can only let him go to the side-seat room."

Shi'an smiled and said: "He is not a stickler for trivial matters, so it doesn't matter if he changes the house."

So the two of them went to make beds for Xu Ying, mother and son.

On the other side, Hong Tao also arrived at Baiyun Temple. Because Baiyun Temple was a little far away from Jiuquli, she had already passed Sizheng when she arrived.

Hong Tao was busy with the examination of Dianfang and Fang Ya, and had not seen her disciples for more than half a month. Therefore, when she arrived, the young disciples in the temple all shouted "Little Master", which made Hong Tao very happy.

After a while.

Sanchan was also in the view, and when he saw Hongtao, he changed from the old man's airs. The old eyes were quite resentful, which made Hongtao very confused.

"Disciple, my master has not been here for only half a month, why do you look so desperate?" He said while handing over a can of preserved dates.

Sanchan didn't say anything. Liochen took the preserved dates and looked at his master again, looking at Hongtao pitifully: "Little master, if you don't come again, I will have to collect the body for my master."

"Oh? What's wrong?" Hong Tao became a little more solemn. Did something big happen to Xiao Banyue when she was away? But then she thought again, the head junior sister didn't give her a reminder?!

Liao Chen said bitterly: "It's not that Yuan Lu. He has always been at odds with the master. After hearing that the master accepted you as his master, he gathered the Feng Shui masters nearby and poured dirty water on the master everywhere, saying that the master was crazy.

,Bye..."

Liao Chen didn't dare to say that he accepted a child as his teacher. He paused and then said, "I accept you as my teacher."

Hong Tao frowned and thought for a moment, "Then what does this have to do with collecting corpses?"

Liao Chen's expression froze for a moment, and then he said again: "Master was scolded so badly by those people that he was almost stunned to death."

Sanchan's eyes were a bit resentful again, and he sighed heavily, with a look of bitterness on his face.

Liao Chen continued: "People's words are scary. If they are spread to one person, it won't cause any pain or irritation. If they are spread to ten people, they are not scary. But if they are spread to a hundred people or to a thousand people, they will be spread by everyone. Now the master is so scared that he doesn't even dare to go out.

I didn’t think about food and drinks every day, and I lost a lot of weight before my eyes."

Hongtao stared at Sanchan for a moment, then nodded and said, "She certainly doesn't look as lively and cute as before."

After that, he said to Sanchan Yu Zhongxin: "Gossip only stops with the wise. I have lived a long life, so how come I only grew older and did not pay attention to it? Let them talk about those things outside. Why do they care?"

Sanchan's old eyes darkened, and he seemed to be getting more and more miserable.

Liao Chen said angrily: "Little Master, please stop stabbing the master in the heart. Others think it doesn't matter, but the master sounds uncomfortable. That Yuan Lu deliberately took the lead, and the scolding was really unpleasant."
