Chapter 202: Rocking and Rocking to Grandma's Bridge

"Qiangzi, you're back!"

In the evening, when Xu Yuping saw Li Guoqiang coming back, she immediately went up to him, greeted him with a smile, and then took an oil-paper bag from him.

"Sister Yuping, there is a honeycomb in here. Take a basin and squeeze out the honey. Then put it in a clay pot and keep it for later consumption. I'll bring some back after you finish eating."

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang hurriedly opened his mouth to explain.

Before that, he had already delivered more than half a pound of honeycombs to each of the production team cadres' homes, and then he took more than two pounds of honeycombs home.

These beehives can squeeze out more than 70% of honey, which is about one and a half kilograms, enough for Xu Yuping and others to eat for three to two months.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuping hurriedly opened the oil paper package and looked inside. She soon saw a large piece of orange-yellow honeycomb, which looked like a piece of freshly minted gold, and instantly attracted her attention.

Then, she couldn't help but stretch out her fingers, dipped some honey on the honeycomb and put it in her mouth. Her eyes immediately narrowed into a line, obviously conquered by the sweet taste of honey.

Among all flavors, sweetness is the easiest to bring people a sense of happiness, not to mention that it is honey that is collected and fermented by countless hardworking bees day and night!

This is simply the best gift that nature has given to mankind and it is a pure natural delicacy.

Soon, the two sisters Zhu Caixia and Xu Dani, like cats smelling fishy smell, ran over from the other side, and then rushed out their hands, broke off a small piece of honeycomb and threw it into their mouths to taste.

If Xu Yuping had not reacted in time, it would not take long before more than half of the beehive would be gone.

"Go away, go away. How can anyone waste good food like you? Eating so much at once, aren't you afraid of choking?"

"hey-hey!"

Facing Xu Yuping's scolding, Zhu Caixia and Xu Dani were not afraid at all. They just stared at the piece of beehive with a playful smile, as if they were going to grab a little more.

Seeing them like this, Xu Yuping could only roll her eyes helplessly, then hurriedly turned around and went into the house with the beehive.

Nowadays, as the relationship between the two sisters and Li Guoqiang becomes closer and closer, and they take over various housework at home, her status as a mother and aunt is becoming less and less important.

Correspondingly, her life became much more relaxed. After work every day, she only needed to take good care of Li Guoqiang. She basically didn't have to do anything else, which was a rare good thing.

In addition, because she watered it every night, her skin and complexion became more youthful and beautiful.

People who don’t know her would think she is a young girl waiting to be married!

This made her feel worried sometimes, and she didn't know how to explain it to others.

In the past, she could say that her life was too hard in previous years, but now that she has come back and benefited from Li Guoqiang, she eats well and sleeps well and her health has naturally improved.

But, I haven’t heard of anyone who can keep getting better!
Before we knew it, another fierce battle had begun.

Xu Yuping lay lazily on Li Guoqiang's body, and then asked worriedly: "Qiangzi, you see, I am a completely different person now than when I just came back last year. Will anyone suspect us?"

"will not!"

Hearing this, Li Guoqiang shook his head without even thinking and replied, "Just put your mind at ease. No one will doubt us because of this!"

"Why?"

Xu Yuping was slightly stunned, then asked with a puzzled look on her face.

“The reason is actually very simple!”

Li Guoqiang raised his lips, and then explained softly: "Have you ever seen other people change as much as you because of that thing between a couple?"

"Don't even mention that someone is suspicious of us. Even if you tell them the truth, they may not believe you!"

"Besides, I am now the God of Wealth reserved for our village. They are all counting on me to run the apiary well and bring them extra income. How could they suspect me for no reason?"

"Besides, you don't have to worry too much. I estimate that after a while, your changes will not be as great as before. At most, it will allow you to maintain a relatively good condition."

"That's it!"

After hearing this, Xu Yuping didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed for a moment.

After all, who wouldn’t like to feel younger and more beautiful?

"okay!"

Seeing Xu Yuping like this, Li Guoqiang felt a little happy, then he slapped the millstone hard, laughed and said, "Stop thinking about it and get up to work."

"Ok!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuping hurriedly nodded in agreement, then stood up with watery eyes, and slowly sat down with her back to Li Guoqiang.

Soon, she opened her mouth and started shaking it very skillfully.

Rocking and rocking, rocking to Grandma's Bridge;
My grandmother called me a good baby;
One pack on the left, one pack on the right;
There was a large piece of barbecued pork in the middle;
The head is protruding, the tail is curled;
Serve in a bowl and squeak;
My stomach started to jump after I ate it.

Jump and jump, jump into the deep well, the baby laughs with joy!

In the blink of an eye, it was more than a week later.

During this period, Li Guoqiang maintained the progress of two hives of bees per day, and successfully expanded the scale of the apiary to twenty-eight hives. He only needed to add the last two hives to achieve the goal set at the beginning.

At the same time, he did not give Li Xiuqin, Ma Guifang, Zhang Mei'e and others divided beehives, so as to avoid feeding their appetites too much and making it inconvenient to manage them in the future.

In addition, Li Xiuqin, Ma Guifang, Zhang Mei'e and others also made the mesh protective clothing one after another. Then, under the guidance of Li Guoqiang, they learned how to open the boxes to check the condition of the bee colonies and officially started the daily inspection and registration work.

On this day, Li Guoqiang showed up at the apiary as usual, and then used teleportation to go into the mountains.

When he rushed to the private apiary, he saw Erniu and Sanwazi digging trenches.

Then, he did not show up immediately, but hid aside and listened to the conversation between the two siblings.

"Sister, do you think he has forgotten about us? He said he would bring us things in a few days, but it's been over a week and there's not even a trace of him!"

"Don't talk nonsense. I don't think he's the kind of person who doesn't keep his word!"

"It's not that I don't trust him, I just wonder if something has happened to him?"

"That shouldn't be possible, right? He's so skilled and has a gun in his hand, who has the ability to cause him to get into trouble?"

"Who knows? We don't know anything about him!"

"Okay, I told you to stop nagging. I still find it annoying even if you don't. He will come anyway."

"What if he really doesn't come?"

"If he doesn't come, we'll make a lot of money!"

"Hey, sister, you're not going to steal all these bees, are you?" "What else? If he doesn't come, do we have to keep working for him for nothing?"

"That's what we say, but...but we don't know how to raise bees. What if they die? All our work will be in vain! And I'm afraid of being stung!"

After hearing this, Erniu was suddenly silent.

In fact, she did think that if Li Guoqiang really didn't come, she would collect these bees.

However, every time she saw the bees flying around the beehives, she couldn't help feeling a little scared.

You know, although bees are small, if they sting too many times, they can kill people.

Don't end up not getting any advantage but losing your life instead, that would be a huge loss.

In addition, compared to this great bargain in front of her, she still hopes that Li Guoqiang can come as promised, and then, seeing that the siblings are so obedient and hardworking, help them find a way to cure their mother and become their family's new supporter.

Otherwise, even if she could find a way to avoid being stung by bees and successfully obtain the valuable honey, she would not be able to keep such a huge fortune in the future.

This is also the main reason why she has been working hard according to Li Guoqiang's instructions for such a long time.

At this time, Sanwazi saw that Erniu didn't say anything and had no interest in continuing the conversation. He just secretly hoped that Li Guoqiang would come back to see them soon.

Seeing that he could not hear anything new, Li Guoqiang did not hide anymore and quickly teleported to Erniu and Sanwazi's home. He placed 20 kilograms of wheat flour, 20 kilograms of rice, 20 kilograms of pork, 20 kilograms of vegetables and fruits, as well as some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc. in the corner of the yard.

Then he teleported back.

When Erniu and Sanwazi heard the noise, they climbed out of the ditch and saw Li Guoqiang walking out of the forest.

Then, they hurriedly turned their eyes to Li Guoqiang's hands, only to see that they were empty. Their mood suddenly changed from joy to disappointment.

"Let's go! Come home with me first!"

Li Guoqiang saw the changes in Erniu and Sanwazi's expressions and had no intention of explaining. He just waved his hand, signaling them to pack up and go back first.

Soon, the two siblings followed Li Guoqiang in silence and headed home.

When they successfully returned home and walked into the yard, their attention was immediately attracted by a pile of things piled in the corner.

Especially the big piece of greasy pork and the big basket of colorful vegetables and fruits, which almost blinded their eyes.

They didn't expect that Li Guoqiang would be so capable as to get so many good things.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry and bring these things into the house!"

Li Guoqiang was slightly amused when he saw this, then he urged him in a somewhat unhappily tone.

"Oh!"

Hearing the sound, Erniu and Sanwazi, the brother and sister, suddenly came to their senses, then ran forward hurriedly, checking with great interest what was inside.

After they finished checking, their mood changed from joy to anxiety.

Because they didn't think that the little bit of work they did for Li Guoqiang was worth such a high price.

Originally they thought the pork, vegetables and fruits were good enough, but they didn't expect that there was also a large jar of peanut oil, a bag of white wheat flour and rice, a bag of crystal clear white sugar, etc.

Even when their father was alive, they rarely had the chance to eat these things.

After all, they had no work points and no coupons, and they mainly relied on hunting in the mountains and then exchanging them for daily necessities.

All in all, it would cost at least two or three times more than ordinary people to buy some coarse grains, not to mention fine grains such as wheat flour and rice.

It can be said that the pile of things in front of them are the best daily necessities they have ever seen in their lives.

They had never dreamed that they would be able to enjoy such a good thing one day.

Is this really okay?

"What's the matter?"

Li Guoqiang saw Erniu and Sanwazi, the two siblings, suddenly turned around to look at him nervously, and immediately couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Is there anything wrong with these things?"

“Brother, are you really going to give these things to our family?”

When Erniu heard Li Guoqiang's question, she swallowed quickly and asked in disbelief.

"Yup!"

Li Guoqiang nodded and answered seriously: "Didn't I tell you before that if you help me, I will bring you some things as a reward!"

"These things are my little bit of sincerity. They won't be so good in the future."

"That"

When Erniu heard what Li Guoqiang said, she felt a little relieved, and then she said hesitantly: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

Li Guoqiang waved his hand, then laughed and said, "We are now family. As long as you can help me in the future, I promise that I will not treat you unfairly."

At this time, Erniu and Sanwazi didn't know that there were such things as pie in the sky in the sky in this world. They were all impressed by Li Guoqiang's generous words. They happily carried the things into the house and did not forget to tell Liang Xianglian the good news.

After Liang Xianglian learned that Li Guoqiang had sent so many good things to his home, she became even more certain that Li Guoqiang was attracted to Erniu, which was why he was so generous.

At the same time, she was also shocked by Li Guoqiang's strength.

Although she had been bedridden for many years, she still knew what was happening in the outside world, so she understood very well how difficult it was to get so many good things.

Faced with such a young man with a mysterious origin and powerful strength, she felt powerless.

In order to avoid any bad things from happening in the future, she thought about it and finally decided to have a good talk with Erniu first so that she could be mentally prepared.

Soon, she took advantage of the time when Li Guoqiang went out to relieve himself and called Erniu over to her. She lowered her voice and asked, "Girl, what do you think is his purpose in sending so many good things to our family?"

Erniu was slightly stunned when she heard this, then slowly shook her head.

Seeing this, Liang Xianglian's eyes flashed with a trace of heartache, and then she said with a worried look: "Mom thinks he should be interested in you!"

"what?"

Erniu was shocked, her mouth slightly opened, a look of surprise appeared on her face, as if she couldn't believe this was true.

If this is true, then why would Li Guoqiang go to so much trouble? Wouldn't it be better to just use force?
