Chapter 63: Picking the Hive
On the second day, Li Zhu woke up Li Hai's brother and his wife early in the morning, and one of them gave a small bamboo basket, which was only up to their waists on the ground, and let the brother and his wife carry it on their backs, and went out to fold six sticks, two for each person, and went out with a child. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Zhu said as he walked: "We have to get up early when we farm, and what Dad will do later, you will follow what you do." You know? Brother Li Hai rarely goes out on weekdays, and he didn't resist going out so early at this time, and responded happily: "Got it." ”
Li Zhu folded two handfuls of fresh grass on the side of the road and put them in a bamboo basket. Brother Li Hai did the same. On weekdays, most of the sheep are fed by Li Hai, and Li Hai pulls out more grass and flattens the bottom of the bamboo basket. As he walked, Li Zhu used two sticks like chopsticks to grip the things on the ground and put them in Li Hai's bamboo basket. The sky was bright, and Brother Li Hai looked at it, it was rice field gong, animal feces, Li Tao said aggrievedly: "Dad, there are a lot of these things at home, why do we have to pick them up and go home?" Li Zhu looked at Brother Li Hai, who was covering his nose with a look of disgust, and said: "Our family wants to open three acres of mountain land to grow vegetables, and we haven't planted anything in that land, I'm afraid that it is not fat enough, and those at home are not enough, we have to prepare it ourselves, and we can also give it to the eldest brother if we have more family, how can we farm too much of this fertilizer." Don't cover it, this thing has no smell, and after a night of air drying, there is no smell at all. Li Bo put down his little hand, sniffed it, and said, "It's really gone." Li Hai and Li Tao also complied, and Li Hai asked strangely: "Daddy, there are not enough cows, sheep, and birds in our yard, how can the uncle's family have enough?" Li Zhu patiently explained: "The uncle's family is definitely not enough, and if it is not enough, you can buy it from other family members." If we have some for the uncle's family, this can be saved. Brother Li Hai nodded seriously after hearing this.
The four of them, father and son, were talking and laughing while picking up dung, and soon they reached the edge of the woods behind the village. When Lehi looked at the wooded road, he pointed to the woods and said to Li Zhu: "Father, honey, bees." When Li Zhu heard this, he was overjoyed and said happily: "There is a beehive inside?" Where is it? Take Daddy over and have a look. Li Hai was also happy in his heart, and he ran ahead to lead the way, looking back at Li Zhu, Li Tao, and Li Bo as he ran. Li Zhu saw that Li Hai was running fast, Li Tao and Li Bo were slow, so he picked up Li Bo with one hand, carried Li Tao on his back, and caught up with Li Hai.
Lehi took Li Zhu to the place where he had seen the beehive last time, pointed to the crockpot, and said, "Dad, that." Li Zhu looked up and saw that there was really a beehive, put Li Tao and Li Bo on the ground, and took off their clothes. After looking around, he said to Brother Li Hai: "You stay away, be careful of being stung." Li Hai obediently pulled Li Tao and Li Bo to run into the distance, Li Zhu looked at Li Hai and shouted: "Run away, take off your clothes, quickly, cover your head." Brother Li Hai immediately put down the bamboo basket, obediently took off his mask to cover his head, it was almost winter, and the brother and sister were wearing three pieces of clothes inside, because they were nervous, they didn't feel cold.
Li Zhu saw that Li Hai's brother had been hidden, took a stick, picked a few large bamboo leaves, and climbed the tree in three or two clicks. Li Zhu saw that there were fewer bees near the hive, so he wrapped the hive with clothes, took them off, tied his clothes tightly, and tried not to leave any gaps. After killing all the bees flying next to him, Li Zhu climbed down the tree. Brother Li Hai listened to the sound of "buzzing, humming" in Li Zhu's clothes, and he was very excited, with Li Hai as the most, Li Hai clapped his hands and said: "Dad, your tree climbing skills are better than Brother Tian's, I also want to learn." I still have to learn to pick this yellow clay pot" Li Zhu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll teach you when you grow up." Lehi nodded.
Li Zhu looked at the hive happily and said, "Let's go, let's go home." Li Hai proposed to let him hold the beehive, Li Zhu hurriedly took it away from Li Hai and said: "These bees are still not dead, or Daddy is holding them, you are small and small, and you can't take it seriously." Li Hai looked at Li Zhu's hand, and then looked at his own hand, and then pulled Li Tao and Li Bo to follow Li Zhu. The father and son walked home happily.
Honey is a precious thing here. Here, everyone is growing food, there are few flowers, bees are scarce, and there are fewer people who can pick beehives, this kind of unique work is a secret that has been passed down from generation to generation, Li Zhu's trick is that when he went out with the wood master to find wood, he accidentally saw the wood master pick it once, and he learned it, which is also Li Zhu's cleverness. Li Zhuke never thought that he would one day pick a beehive, which is unattainable.
Li Zhu's father and son came out early in the morning, and there is still no one on the road. Li Zhu led Li Hai's brother to the stream, put the clothes into the water, and waited until there was no sound before picking them up, Li Zhu told Li Hai'er and said: "Hai'er, Tao'er, Bo'er, this thing that my father picked today can't be told to other people, otherwise someone will come to our house and steal it, and your mother and sister will have to drink bitter medicine every day." If it's too much, let your mother make you candy to eat. Brother Li Hai nodded happily after hearing this, and promised not to say anything. Li Bo was the youngest, and there was nothing in the bamboo basket except for a few patches of grass. Li Zhu just put the beehive wrapped in clothes into Li Bo's bamboo basket and picked some grass by the stream to catch it. When Li Hai and Li Tao saw it, they also followed the grass and put it in their own bamboo baskets, while Li Bo helped Li Tao pick it.
After the three small bamboo baskets were covered with grass, Li Zhu picked a large bundle, put it on his back, and drove Li Hai and his brother back with his hand.
When he got home, Deng had already boiled hot water and prepared breakfast, and when he saw Li Zhu's undressed appearance, he was startled and asked, "Zhu, where are your clothes?" Li Zhu mysteriously pulled Deng into the room, and Li Hai, a ghost and spirit, also entered the room. Li Zhu put Li Bo's small bamboo basket on the kang table, took out the grass, took out his clothes, spread out the beehive with a look of offering treasures, and said, "Look, what is this?" Deng Shi said in surprise: "Ah, you will pick this thing!" Li Zhu nodded and said, "I saw Master Mu pick it once before, and I learned it." Deng nodded happily and said, "This is really good!" On weekdays, I look bitter when I drink medicine, but fortunately, my daughter is intimate and not noisy. You get the honey out and leave it for Hamahama to drink. Li Zhu nodded after hearing this, and Li Bo whispered beside him: "Daddy said too much, you can make candy to eat." ”
When Li Zhu heard this, he touched his head embarrassedly, Deng Shi glared at Li Zhu with disgust, and said helplessly: "Okay, make some sugar cakes with noodles and give some to the uncle and eldest brother." Li Zhu nodded after hearing this.
Li Zhu hurriedly took a piece of white cloth to the kitchen, put the beehive in the pot and boiled it, and then wrapped it in a white cloth and squeezed it. Although this beehive was only the size of two palms of adults, it also squeezed out half a crockpot of honey, which made Li Zhu and his wife squint their eyes with joy. Deng put the crockpot filled with honey into the room, and Li Zhu was reluctant to throw away the hive, so he put it in a wooden bowl, soaked it in water, and tried it, it was sweet. Li Zhu was happy, poured out the water in the small pot, poured the honey mixed with the water into the small pot, and said with a smile: "Although it is not so sweet, we can drink it for a long time." ”
Brother Li Hai saw it and hurriedly came over to get a drink. Brother Li Hai filled a large bowl and drank it all at once. Li Zhu looked at it and said with a smile: "You three should be what this thing is, when you are thirsty, you will drink water, and such a precious thing will be wasted by you in vain." ”
