Su Wan's grandparents are buried halfway up the mountain, and the graves of his great-grandfather and great-aunt must also be visited.
Su's father and Su Jing each took a sickle, and later they had to cut the weeds around the tomb themselves.
Su Wan is responsible for setting up the tributes and incense table. When Su's father returns, he will greet the people who specialize in cultivating the tomb. Then he will paint this place up. It is a little thought from their descendants, and he hopes that their spirits in heaven can bless them. My descendants, stay safe and prosper step by step.
Worshiping ancestors was quite tiring, as they had to climb mountains and cut grass. Although Su Wan didn't have to do it himself, Su's father and Su Jing were so tired that they were sweating profusely and didn't finish until the afternoon and went home.
His body was covered in weeds that had stained his clothes and hair, and he was itching all over.
Fortunately, Liuying had already boiled a lot of hot water at home, so Su Wan could take a hot bath as soon as she came back. She had already scratched red marks on some parts of her body.
Sure enough, after living a wealthy life for too long, it is easy to suffer from the disease of affluence as soon as you go to the countryside. I didn't feel that way when I was in the village.
Liuying looked at the red marks on her body with distress, but there was nothing she could do.
"It's okay. I feel much better after washing it. It will go away after a while."
"The girl's skin is delicate. Please be careful in the future and don't scratch it hard. The skin is broken in some places and you don't know the pain."
Liu Ying was really distressed, her brows were furrowed.
Because she was tired from the whole day, Su Wan fell asleep not long after getting into bed.
The first thing I did when I got up the next day was to run to the back garden of my home to check the beehives.
Afraid of being bitten by bees, she still took precautions. Even though bees actually don't bite, there are a lot of them just in case.
She brought a gauze hat and opened the beehive to see that the flowers in the garden were already in bloom. The red roses and water-red roses covered the entire fence. It was so beautiful.
There are already beehives inside the beehive, and you can clearly see that there is honey attached to them, but there is not enough, and you have to keep putting them down.
This kind of honey raised purely from flowers smells very sweet and looks very thick.
When Liuying saw this, she was still worried about biting the girl.
"Girl, why do you keep so many bees in your yard? It's so scary. What should you do if you get stung?"
"They generally don't bite people, and these bees are considered beneficial insects. They can produce honey, which has beautifying and nourishing effects. It is very good to drink with water. It is good for women and is better than brown sugar. It is available on the market. It’s so expensive that you may not be able to buy it even if you have money.
Moreover, no one should be able to master the technology of raising bees now. If I start it here, I will be the first one. This is all money. Do you still think they are scary? "Su Wan explained to her.
"If you can make money, that's another matter."
Indeed, once something is priced at a good price, it is a good thing.
Su Wan still has to go to the flower field to see if the more than twenty beehives that have been planted have formed honeycombs and begun to produce honey. If successful, they can consider planting a few acres of flower fields next year to raise this The size of the bee farm has been expanded.
Coincidentally, Jiang Sheng and his wife were busy in the flower field, watering the flowers.
The weather is hot and there is less rainfall. The flowers need to be watered every two days. They are blooming very well now. All the beehives placed under the flower shed have been covered with beehives, and there are already many beehives inside. sugar.
In another two months, the harvest will be ready.
Jiang Sheng and his wife knew that Su Wan was back yesterday, but Su Wan and the others had to go to work, so they didn't look for her.
Because she works for Su Wan, the family has a fixed income every month. Jiang Sheng's mother's health has improved a lot. Jiao Xing has also grown taller and gained weight. Compared with the dry and flat appearance before, she looks better now. Quite a few.
Although she couldn't speak, her smile now was particularly contagious. Just standing there quietly and smiling at Su Wan, Su Wan could tell from her smile that she had a lot to say, but Unable to express it, it turned into a feeling of excitement.
Jiang Sheng was worried that his wife was still young and he had not consummated the marriage with her yet. He was afraid that she would have a baby. It would be too harmful to give birth to a baby now.
Aunt Jiang's family is not in a hurry. This matter is something she has asked her son to do. It is not too late to wait until Jiao Xing is two years older. Don't be like her, hurt your body and can only linger on the sick bed in the future.
Jiao Xing is lucky. She is married to Jiang Sheng, a man who cares about his wife. Although his shoulders are not strong enough, he is very good when he is responsible. Her mother-in-law is also very good and considerate of her.
Judging from the care of the garden, it was rare to see even a weed, and the flowers were blooming very fresh. Because they were watered frequently, the Su family's yard was usually cleaned and tidied thanks to their help.
Su's father was just a rough man, guarding those acres of land every day. His children and wife were not at home, and he lived a rough life. How could he take care of all this?
Therefore, the monthly payment Su Wan gave them was still worth it.
There is nothing to do at home. I just told Jiang Sheng and the others that the honey will be collected in more than a month.
Su's father had to find someone to repair his ancestral tomb. He had to be busy these days, and his eldest brother also had to work with him. Su Wan stayed at home for several days, neither eating nor sleeping.
The third brother gave her the key to Jiang Yunhe's house and asked her to take it to clean the yard so that it would not be abandoned. Su Wan took Liu Yun and Liu Ying to Uncle Jiang's house to do a general cleaning.
Their peach tree has already produced a lot of peaches, and there is still a lot of peach gum on the trunk, but peach gum is too troublesome to deal with. Although it is a very nutritious thing, it cannot withstand the trouble.
The peaches are still barely ripe and will have to sit on the tree for a while before they are fully ripe.
However, the osmanthus flowers in his yard were blooming again, and no one was enjoying them here. Su Wan simply asked Liu Yun and the others to pick them all and take them back to the workshop so that they could make new osmanthus soap.
It is very good to make infusion oil or directly distill floral dew. Golden osmanthus is a very fragrant variety with a strong aroma. Many people like osmanthus.
After Su's father and eldest brother finish working on the ancestral tomb, the family will have to find someone to harvest the rice. After harvesting the rice and drying it, Su's father will transport it all the way to his home in Xiangzhou.
From then on, Su's father would also move to Xiangzhou for a long time to stay with his son, daughter-in-law, and just come back from time to time to visit.
Su Jing stayed at home for almost seven or eight days before taking her sister back to Xiangzhou.
Over in Xiangzhou, there was also a banquet hosted by the governor who did not attend.
As soon as Su Wan entered the city, he found that recruitment was going on at the city gate. It seemed that there was already a war on the border, which also meant that the third brother was about to leave home and go to the battlefield.
Thinking of this, Su Wan felt a little uncomfortable. After all, the front line was full of swords and shadows, and the tips of the swords licked blood. The third brother had to endure a lot of hardships.
