Chapter 290 The Sun Family Wants to Organize Mountain Rafting
As night deepened, the noise outside gradually faded away, leaving only the two people inside, their soft breathing and occasional whispers. On the second night, Li Ju'an's movements were equally gentle, as if he were handling the most precious treasure in the world, every touch filled with endless cherishing and love.
In his arms, Lin Mei felt an unprecedented sense of security and happiness. The warmth was like the gentle sunshine of spring, softly enveloping her and making her almost intoxicated, unwilling to wake up.
For Li Ju'an, the happiness of this moment almost felt unreal. He had dreamt countless times of the beautiful times he would spend with Lin Mei, and now, it had finally come true. He had finally married the beloved girl he had dreamed of in his previous life, and even in this one. This hard-won love strengthened his resolve to protect Lin Mei for the rest of his life.
Time flies. In the past six months, Li Ju'an has been quietly managing his bee farm and orchard on the land he was allocated in Changchonggou.
In spring, as all things revive, Li Ju'an, with his keen eyes and diligent hands, meticulously cared for each hive of bees. In the warm, humid air, the bee colonies lived up to expectations, successfully raising five emergency queen cells in late spring and early summer. The birth of the new queen bee was like a seed of hope.
The apiary is quite impressive in scale, with beehives arranged in a neat and orderly fashion. The apple blossoms emit a faint fragrance, attracting swarms of bees to come and feast.
Lin Mei and Song Lanhua stood at the edge of the orchard, gazing at the scene with indescribable joy in their eyes. Lin Mei's smile was brighter than the flowers in spring, and she whispered to her mother, "Look how hard these little ones work; this year's harvest will definitely be good."
Upon hearing this, Song Lanhua gently stroked Lin Mei's hair, her eyes filled with love and expectation. She softly replied, "Yes, our lives will become sweeter and sweeter, just like this orchard." The conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was filled with laughter.
Lin Mei teased Song Lanhua playfully, saying, "Mom, if our honey piles up like a mountain, don't complain that it's too heavy and refuse to move it!"
Song Lanhua couldn't help but laugh at her daughter-in-law's words. She gently patted Lin Mei's hand, her eyes sparkling with laughter: "My dear child, we would never complain about the weight. As long as our family works together, our lives will definitely get better and better."
The apple orchard surrounded by bees is where their dreams took flight, witnessing how they watered their hopes with sweat and waited for the heavy honey harvest in autumn, which would take the bee farm's operation to the next level.
In September, the first autumn winds brought a chill to the mountains and forests, but Li Ju'an's heart burned with an irrepressible fervor. For him, this season meant the beginning of an adventure full of unknowns and challenges. He decided to once again venture into the depths of that mysterious forest to examine the open nest of the eagle that he and Da Hu had discovered that summer.
A few days ago, on a scorching summer day, Li Ju'an led his loyal tiger through the lush forest paths. They finally arrived at that secluded corner, and the sight before them left him speechless. A majestic eagle was quietly guarding its nest of precious eggs.
At that moment, hope was planted in Li Ju'an's heart, and he looked forward to the birth of new life. Autumn winds have arrived, and those fragile eggs may have already hatched, turning into fledgling eagles with immature wings.
Li Ju'an knew that if there were indeed fledgling eagles, he only needed to wait patiently for two months until they grew into sub-adults. That would be the best time for him to go into the mountains to raid the eagle nests, bring this natural treasure back to the village, and perform the ancient and sacred eagle-taming ceremony.
He called over his friend Lu Zhiqiang. Upon hearing this, Lu Zhiqiang's lips curled into a playful smile, and he joked, "Oh, is our falcon expert going to conquer the skies again?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ju'an smiled without saying a word. He responded to Lu Zhiqiang's teasing with a firm look: "That's right, there might even be several birds in one nest. Doesn't your old man want to train the hawk?"
This conversation was overheard by Lu Jinyang, who was passing by. A spark of adventure ignited in him, and he quickly interjected, "Count me in! The three of us can go together; maybe I can be of help!" Li
Ju An and Lu Zhiqiang exchanged a smile and readily agreed. When Lu Jinyang mentioned this matter, he inadvertently revealed an important piece of information: "I heard that the Sun family is organizing a mountain climbing activity recently. If we go into the mountains, we might run into Sun Weimin and the others."
Mentioning Sun Weimin, the expressions of the three men became subtle, as his conflict with Li Ju'an had a long history.
At this time, the Sun family was grazing in the mountains, and news of Sun Quande organizing the grazing spread throughout the entire village.
In that remote village nestled amidst verdant mountains and forests, the summer sun, like fine gold dust, gently sprinkled across every inch of the land. The Sun family was busily preparing for a unique mountain rafting activity, and this news, as if it had grown wings, spread like wildfire, quickly reaching every corner of the entire village.
Sun Quande, a well-known warm-hearted man and hunting expert in the village, personally organized this safari, and his influence should not be underestimated. He stood under the old locust tree at the village entrance, his posture upright, his eyes sparkling with boundless anticipation for the adventure to come.
"Fellow villagers, it is said that wild animals have been appearing more frequently in the mountains this year. It's time for the Sun family to show their courage and wisdom!"
Brigade leader Yang Dezheng, usually stern but deeply concerned for the villagers, stood beside Sun Quande. The two stood side-by-side under the old locust tree, their conversation revealing Yang Dezheng's brow furrowing and relaxing intermittently, clearly weighing the pros and cons.
He patted Sun Quande on the shoulder, his voice steady and firm: "Quande, I trust you to handle things. The village will fully support this mountain rafting trip. But remember, safety comes first, and we need to make sure everyone returns safely."
"Okay."
This summer for the Sun family was destined to be extraordinary. For this rafting trip, they not only meticulously prepared the necessary equipment but also added four new members—four strong hunting dogs. The most eye-catching of them all was their lead dog, named Blackie.
Blackie, with her glossy black fur gleaming in the sunlight, sharp eyes like an eagle, and agile, powerful gait, was clearly a top predator of the mountains and forests. The Sun family spared no expense to acquire this "star" of the hunting grounds.
The dog farm was bustling with activity as buyers from all walks of life eagerly awaited their chance to acquire the legendary alpha dog. Upon seeing Sun Quande, the farm owner's eyes gleamed with cunning, and he deliberately raised his voice: "Oh, Brother Sun, you're a true connoisseur! This black girl is a top-tier specimen, one in a hundred; the price, of course, is not cheap."
He deliberately glanced around, seemingly showing off his prized possession. Sun Quande remained calm, a faint smile playing on his lips. Years of negotiation experience had taught him how to gain the upper hand in this psychological battle.
"Boss, we're old friends, why joke like that? Blackie is great, but her value is maximized depending on who has her. How about this, I'll give you a fair price, let's make a quick deal, okay?"
