Let’s Become a Beekeeper (Continued)
Volue, Great Renovation Plan!?
I reviewed the notes on not getting stung by bees, written as a part of father’s paper
First, use colours that do not stand out for the clothing
I had been very neglectful about this I went into the forest wearing clothes using blue and red fabrics
Next, do not panic in front of bees Observe the behaviour of the bees
Even if they land on the clothes, they don’t i The bees also exa them
I think this will be hard However, I’ll try my hardest to not panic
Regarding how I got stung recently, it see told mother
“Ritchan,a protective shade”
“Oh!”
It was a wide-rihtly woven net draped around
The structure is h the small holes
“This is a”
“I also , so please wear those”
“Thank you”
It was just layering more clothes, but it felt like my defences improved at once
Even if bees approach, I think I can stay calm
I upliftedand Arno came over to see me off
“Ritz, I’m sure you know this, but please be careful”
“Alright”
It felt like Arno was cheering ently kissed hi soon
I then kissed Sieg on her cheek and headed out
“See you later”
“I’ll be off”
I proceeded through the spring forest where the snow had not melted fully yet
The objective this ti bees
A queen bee is born once a year in a hive
The previous queen takes half the worker bees and exits the hive
I’ll be catching that swarm
I carefully trod through the forest
I saw a stray bee flying by, so I decided to tail it
It seems that bees that leave their hives survey their area for potential settling areas So if I chase them I’ll be able to find the ball of honeybees
After persistently tailing the bee, I found a swar from a tree!
Fortunately, instead of a hive, it was close to where the wooden fra that
I approached slowly and placed the wooden box with honey under the ball of bees
If the bees notice the hive and move in, it will be a success
If that doesn’t work, I’ll have to capture them myself
It seems that bees in their balled up states are docile, but the thought of directly capturing the
Please, settle in the box, I ended up praying
I picked herbs for medicine and spices in the forest and returned home
When I opened the front door, Sieg ca over
“I’m back”
“Welcome back”
Without taking aby a bee
Today, I hadand I acted cal
When I said that, Sieg looked relieved
“I see I’ht”
“……Nn”
“What is it?”
“No, I was just happy”
Before, when I started so experiet myself into precarious situations
Because results did not coripped clothes
That was the norm However, it’s different now
I had fa for me
I really think that it’s a blissful thing
I decided to continue working hard for my family
The next day
I headed to the forest as my heart fluttered I headed for the tree with the swarm of bees
—— Found it!
From afar, there was no ball of bees
Swarer in one place They fly away after about two days
So I didn’t get expectant just because they weren’t there
I slowly approached the hive and peeked into it
“……!”
I almost cried out, but I sed it back in just before it came out
So on! There are bees in the box!
