Apart from honeycomb, Qiao Xuan also harvested some wild honey as well as beeswax. She had a large woven twine bag with a custom-made flat and light wooden barrel that was just right for honey.
Honey tasted sweet and smelled good. It was a precious delicacy for farmers.
Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao were very happy. They already had a deep fondness for the sweetness. But Qiao Xuan did not allow them to eat too much, because that would ruin their appetite and they would get tired of it easily. She was going to take the honey back, then extract the essences, and store it in a jar for a long-time. It would not go bad in this manner and they could eat it for a very long time.
Honey was a great thing. If it could be put on the meat while grilling and deep-frying, the taste would be excellent in dishes like sweet and sour rib bones.
The idea had a lot of appeal to Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao, who were drooling constantly.
