Chapter 23: Take honey

She was used to sleeping in Simmons bed and had some insomnia at night.
The village is close to the mountain, and there is a big temperature difference between day and night, and at night, the temperature is very low. The thin quilt at home was still very cold.
Zhao Yuner and Doudou were sleeping with their clothes. Doudou's lips were a little purple because of the cold. Zhao Yuner hugged Doudou in her arms and let her feel the warmth of her body. The little bun still smelled of milk, which smelled very nice.
In the middle of the night, Zhao Yuner was really sleepy, and fell asleep before she knew it.
Zhao Yuner got up early the next morning. Today I am going up the mountain and I am coming back for lunch, so I have to go early.
Doudou was still sleeping, Zhao Yuner patted Doudou's little cheek, and said softly to Doudou, "Doudou, my mother is going to the mountain, she's getting up."
Doudou rubbed his wistful eyes, but got up numbly.
Zhao Yuner put the things in the back basket and got ready, and then took Doudou's little hand and walked up the mountain.
There is still a thin mist on the mountains in the morning, with a hint of coolness. Zhao Yuner walked directly toward the honeycomb she remembered last time.
This time, the purpose of going up the mountain was to get the honey. Although there is not much honey in a honeycomb, there are many honeycombs on the mountain. If you make a few honeycombs, you can get a lot of honey.
Zhao Yuner took Doudou under a beehive, and first let Doudou hide a little bit far away, so as not to be flew over by bees and sting Doudou.
"Doudou, don't move here, mother is going to climb the tree." Zhao Yuner exhorted.
"Yeah, I know my mother." Doudou nodded sensibly.
Zhao Yun'er kissed Doudou's little cheek with a kiss, "Doudou is really good."
With that, he turned to the tree.
Zhao Yun'er's movements should be as light as possible, so as not to disturb the bees on the tree. Then take out the tools you prepared.
I ignited a mass of grass mixed with soil so that it would not burn, but thick smoke came out.
After Zhao Yuner finished everything, she hurriedly climbed down from the tree and retreated to Doudou's position.
After a while, the dense smoke became bigger and bigger, and some of the bees that had stayed in the honeycomb seemed to be unbearable, and slowly began to fly out of the honeycomb.
When the bees all flew out of the honeycomb and flew far away, Zhao Yuner went on the tree again.
Then he took out a knife, cut a small opening in the honeycomb, and then took out all the honey in the honeycomb.
Zhao Yun'er didn't completely destroy the honeycomb. This honeycomb was where the bees lived. She didn't want to destroy the honeycomb just to get a little honey. It was not necessary. In addition, keeping the honeycomb, the bee will come back on its own when looking back, and she can continue to take it after a while.
Not much honey was taken from one honeycomb. Fortunately, there were many honeycombs on the mountain. Zhao Yuner took two large pots of honey according to the same method.
In ancient times, honey was also a good thing, and generally only large households could afford it. Two pots of honey should be worth a lot of money, and before you know it, the whole morning was used up.
Zhao Yun'er had a full harvest and was about to go down the mountain with Doudou.
Seeing the faint fragrance of honey, Doudou asked curiously, "Mother, what is this?"
