Wow, this rough-around-the-edges pregnant wife is something else, she's incredibly ruthless!

After returning home and having lunch, and settling little Lu Huai in, Meng Tong called over Lu He and Lu Yan.

Since the beginning of the year, the two sisters have grown quite a bit taller, especially Lu Yan, whose strength is like that of a young calf, which even Lu Chuan finds difficult to handle.

With her around, Meng Tong doesn't have to worry about anyone bullying them; it's good enough if she doesn't launch sneak attacks.

"Mother, are you and Father going out?"

"Mmm." With a gentle smile, Meng Tong rubbed Lu He's little face and said softly, "Your father and I are going to Xiangshui Village to take a look. You two stay home and study hard. Keep an eye on your little brother on the bamboo bed. If he gets hungry, just give him the milk bottle that your mother has prepared."

"Okay, then we'll wait for Mother and Father to come back."

Nodding obediently, Lu He already looked like a little adult.

"Mother, go in peace! Yan'er will protect my sister and brother. But Mother, can you grant Yan'er one request?"

"What is it, Yan'er?" Meng Tong gently pinched the little one's deliberately exposed arm and looked at her with a doting expression.

The woman's eyes were so gentle that Lu Yan clasped her hands together shyly before continuing, "I miss Bai Ye and the others. Mother, can you bring them back to see Yan'er?"

"of course can."

Lu Yan used to "hang out" with Bai Ye, and it was half the credit for her strength.

Meng Tong was impressed that the little girl had waited so long to bring it up.

Fortunately, the task of plowing in Xiangshui Village should be almost over, so let our "plowing ox" Hu become the king of the mountains again!

After giving instructions to the two sisters, Meng Tong and Lu Chuan headed towards the town.

Just in case, Meng Tong reinstalled a thorny gate at the entrance to the village.

It's fine as long as you don't touch it.

……

Unlike in the past when they relied on the fast-moving "green carpet" to get to Xiangshui Village, Meng Tong and Lu Chuan walked side by side on the fragrant path filled with birdsong and flowers, a rare sight for them.

His large, rough, hot hands tightly gripped the woman's small, delicate hands, and Lu Chuan's bright, deep eyes were filled with joy.

"My wife, this flower is for you."

"Thank you." Taking the pale pink flower bud that Lu Chuan had casually picked, Meng Tong lowered her head slightly and brought it to her nose to smell it.

A faint fragrance lingered in her nostrils, and a smile appeared on the woman's lips in the bright sunlight.

The man who had been observing Meng Tong noticed her reaction, and his dark eyes softened. He stopped and said gently, "Let me put it on my wife!"

The man carefully placed the beautiful flower bud in the woman's soft hair, instantly making the woman, who had been dressed somewhat coldly, look delicate.

The flower buds, in particular, do not appear flamboyant; instead, they possess a shy, alluring quality.

The reflection gives the woman a girlish shyness as well as a uniquely feminine coolness and charm. The combination of the three elements does not seem abrupt or contradictory, but rather creates a unique feeling.

Lu Chuan loves this feeling.

A soft chuckle escaped his throat, and the man boldly gave the woman a light peck on her alluring cheek.

He said, "My wife is so beautiful."

"Let's go! At this pace, when will we ever get there?"

Gently pushing Lu Chuan's strong body close to her side, Meng Tong blushed and took two quick steps forward.

Lu Chuan paused for two seconds, then a sly, triumphant smile appeared on his face. He called out maliciously to the woman's back, "Wife, wait for me."

Then, he caught up with the woman's pace in a few steps and firmly grasped her small hand with his large one.

On the quiet path, the faint sounds of men and women laughing could be heard, and the small animals crouching in the woods were somewhat disgusted by Lu Chuan's behavior.

Having a wife is nothing special!

……

After more than two hours, the two, who had been traveling in a daze, finally arrived at Xiangshui Village.

Standing in the low-lying valley where Meng Tong had previously chosen to place the grain, Meng Tong took out a large quantity of seeds all at once.

It has everything: wheat, corn, rice, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and more.

The entire low-lying area was too small to be filled, but it was still enough to plant the 10,000 mu of land in Xiangshui Village.

"Wife, won't taking so much at once give away your secret weapon?!"

His eyes flickered slightly as he glanced at the mountain of seeds, and Lu Chuan couldn't help but ask.

Compared to these things, what the man cared about more was the fear that Meng Tong might unknowingly be in danger.

However, Meng Tong didn't care. She glanced at Lu Chuan and said softly, "No need to explain. They should know they shouldn't ask what they shouldn't ask."

Meng Tong was tired of explaining this kind of thing.

It's either one after another so-called well-intentioned lies, or it's falling into a kind of inexplicable self-justification.

She doesn't like overly curious people.

If they won't tell you, there must be a reason. There's no need to ask if others won't tell you; the most important thing is to do your best.

Lu Chuan, unusually, agreed with Meng Tong's viewpoint.

After gathering the seeds, the two walked around the hillside toward their lodging, observing the boundless fields along the way.

To be honest, Xiangshui Village has really good conditions, with more than 10,000 mu of flat farmland and a large river flowing down from the high mountain at the far east.

People used to come here to bathe! But then a severe drought caused the land to dry up for more than half a year.

It rained several times recently before a small river finally came down.

……

Walking along the ridge to the front of the wooden house, the courtyard, which should have been bustling with activity, was now deserted.

Neither Bai Ye nor the wolves were there.

Meng Tong's pupils flickered slightly, and he said, "They must have gone out to work. Shall we go out and take a look?"

"it is good."

After leaving the house, Meng Tong and Lu Chuan began to wander around, but they couldn't see or hear anyone.

How far did we go?

While puzzled, Meng Tong began to use his special abilities to search for their whereabouts.

Finally, they found traces of a group of people in a valley more than ten kilometers away from the village.

Compared to before when he could only tell the number of people, this time Meng Tong could even tell what they were doing by looking at tree branches and grass.

It's as if every flower and blade of grass here belongs to her "camera".

Not only were they clearly visible, but their conversation could even be faintly heard.

This is something Meng Tong didn't discover even during the apocalypse, so it seems her special abilities have really improved a lot.

Having a clear view of the situation in the valley, Meng Tong also learned why they had gone there.

It turns out that they had already completed the task of tilling the land a few days earlier, because the innermost land of Xiangshui Village was located on a low slope a few hundred meters away from the valley.

They discovered the valley while they were resting.

The terrain was relatively flat and open, so they decided to cultivate the land.

Sure enough, starting yesterday, these twenty-odd people went to the valley to clear land with hoes.

No wonder there wasn't a single person to be seen in the courtyard.
