Chapter 112: Calamity without Cause

in, he harbored resentment, but could only swallow it down with his tears.As he grows older, his dream of studying can only be partially fulfilled by teaching children.But the younger brother is still...We didn't choose dumplings because the smell was too strong and they were difficult to handle.

Buns are much more convenient. Every time you break off a mouthful, just stuff it into your mouth and eat it slowly. No one would notice.

Thus, along the way, she would sometimes sit in her grandmother's arms, sometimes let her father carry her, and sometimes be held by her mother.

When resting, Old Lady Li would go to the restroom, and she'd make her grandsons follow along for courage...

Good sound is like a busy bee, working hard to carry on the nurturing work.

In a blink of an eye, three more days had passed. That day at noon, they took a break under a cliff.

The little guys were full of energy, and they didn't slow down one bit on their morning hike.

As everyone was drinking water and basking in the increasingly lukewarm sun, a group of boys suddenly ran back.

Jia Xi Jia An immediately hugged Liu Biaotou's neck, "Liu Uncle, Uncle! We found a big beehive, as big as an iron pot!"

"Yes, yes, there must be a lot of honey inside!" The other boys also crowded forward, looking expectantly at Liu Biaotou.

Liu Biatou was a man who doted on his children. There wasn't much to do at the moment, so he decided to take the boys out to collect honeycomb.

The villagers were also playful and followed to help.

Soon, a large piece of oilcloth was simply sewn together and carried away.

Seeing the people's worried faces, the bees went mad. They quickly sought cover for their children.

The Li family was no exception. Old Mrs. Li covered her granddaughter with fine gauze and put a large willow basket outside...

Jia Yin crouched inside, her big eyes blinking. She was so upset.

A bird in a cage, that's her.

Luckily, cheers soon came from the side of the cliff.

A boy came running back to report, “Uncle Liu has covered the beehive and taken it down from the cliff. He’s smoking the bees now.”

Everyone let out a sigh of relief. After another two quarters of an hour, the young lads swarmed back, happily surrounding Liu Biatou and his party.

Liu Biaotou and a villager carried a honeycomb the size of a wash basin.

Everyone was surprised and rushed forward to join the excitement.

Jia Yin was also curious and went over to take a look.

Then Old Lady Li embraced her, just as Liu the Head鏢頭 lowered his head to take a piece of honeycomb.

The reddish-brown honey, almost dripping.

A woman with quick eyes and hands caught the jar as it fell.

Liu Biaotou, seeing Jia Yin, this little chubby girl, was so tempted that he almost drooled. He smiled and took a spoon, scooping half a spoonful and bringing it to her mouth.

Funiu is the youngest, she gets the first bite.

Jia Yin didn't hesitate, she let out a little "Mmm" and swallowed the honey all at once.

Genuine honey, it seems to contain countless floral fragrances, this is definitely not comparable to the syrup labeled as wild honey in supermarkets from a previous life.

Jia Yin's eyes lit up, her little face was full of surprise, which made everyone smile.

"Funiu is a little glutton!"

Kids love sweets!

On one side, the little ones were anxious, all jumping and shouting, "Uncle Liu, don't forget us! Don't forget us!"

Just as Liu, the leader of the鏢 (protective escort), was about to take another few scoops, a surviving wild bee suddenly flew out from the honeycomb and straight towards Jia Yin.

Before anyone could react, its stinger swiftly plunged into Jia Yin's nose from behind.

Jia Yin cried out in pain, wailing loudly.

"Oh, Funiu, Funiu don't cry!" Old Lady Li didn't expect this. She panicked and reached out to crush the wild bee, but it was too late.

Jia Yin's nose swelled up quickly, like a clown in the circus, with a big red bulb on it!

People rushed forward, wanting to help, but the wild bee was already dead. What could they do

As for Jia Yin's appearance, it's truly...

Someone couldn't hold it in and laughed first, then everyone else burst into laughter!

Jia Yin's nose itched and hurt, she was already miserable, seeing everyone like this, she cried even louder!

Li Laotai felt a mixture of heartache and amusement, mostly self-blame. What was she thinking to get herself into this mess Her granddaughter had suffered because of her.

She hurried to find Zhang Shenyi with her granddaughter. Zhang Shenyi was laughing so hard his beard trembled, and Jia Yin, angry, bit his hand hard.

Unfortunately, she only had a few small baby teeth. She didn't have much strength at all.

Then the Divine Physician Zhang applied medicine to her.

The rare coolness made Jiayin feel much better, yet she still lay listlessly in grandma's arms, covering her nose with her little hand.

This caused everyone to laugh again and tease her.

"Funiu, why are you covering your nose Let me see, okay"

"Fú Niū, have you heard that your nose turned red as a cherry"

"Fúniū, is honey sweet I heard wild bees are seeking revenge on you"

Li Laotai hurriedly drove people away, "My granddaughter Fu Niu is smart, she understands what you're saying, don't spoil the child."

Then everyone stopped teasing her. Instead, Liu the鏢頭 (escorted) a large bowl of honey over and let Jia Yin eat to her fill, which was also a way to vent her anger.

In the midst of a arduous journey, it's truly a rare and joyous occasion to find such relaxation and merriment.

Almost everyone had a few big bites of honey, their mouths sweetened, and they each filled two jars.

The hive also shared the honeycomb with the children. Unfortunately, winter was coming soon, and there weren't many pupae left. Those were such a good thing to eat.

Sweets are a catalyst for good mood. In the afternoon, because of these bites of honey, whether old or young, everyone's steps feel much lighter.

But in the following days, children from all the households were much more troublesome than usual.

As long as you tease someone, you'll get a mouthful of honey...

Only Jia Yin touched her swollen nose from time to time, and didn't touch the honey jar again.

Several days later, the honey jar was empty, and everyone had climbed over five mountains.

Seeing that more than half the journey had been completed, everyone was happy.

But happiness did not last through the night, being broken the next morning.

When I woke up, there were snowflakes falling from the sky.

Although it was only for a short while, it gave everyone a signal.

Winter is coming!

The village head and old Mr. Zhao gathered together, all with grim faces.

Winter snow, once it comes, will soon be followed by another snowfall. And each one will be bigger and colder than the last.

Having a closer look, it's only the beginning of September now. Winter seems to be coming too early this year.

"Brother, things don't look good."

Zhao Shu frowned and said, "This summer has been a severe drought. Logically, autumn should have heavy rains. But it hasn't rained much before, and I was happy about it. Now it seems that the heavy rain is going to come in winter."

The village head nodded, "Looking at this, it's indeed not good. We need to prepare early."

Liu Biaotou and Li Laosi sat on one side, also worried.

Liu Biao was the most familiar with the terrain among these people, he said.

"There are at least seventeen or eighteen mountains to cross, two of which are particularly difficult. Just those two will take five or six days, meaning it will take at least twenty days to get out."

Li Lao Si nodded and looked up at the sky.

"Looking at this weather, it's likely to snow heavily in twenty days. Not only will it be difficult to travel then, but the cold weather also makes one more susceptible to illness. But if we look for a place to spend the winter, with so many people, food supplies would be a problem. By next spring, who knows what the situation outside will be like! It's good that the Barbarians have retreated for now, but if they completely occupy the area north of the Jinsha River, it will be even more troublesome."

At a loss, everyone fell silent for a moment.any people at his disposal, but to avoid suspicion, none were arranged within the palace.For this matter, he could only seek help from the Emperor.Jia Yin had some self-defense skills, plus the prince...
