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

"Meng Dani, don't act innocent after getting the benefits. You've used up all the family's savings, everyone has seen it. Your third branch of the family has no share of the grain, and neither does the house..."

Lu Qian was no longer a silent gourd; his scheming manner was truly disgusting.

However, based on his reaction, Meng Tong became even more certain that they still had savings.

She calmly got up and prepared to enter the second room, but Madam He bristled as if a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

In a few steps, they moved in front of Meng Tong and blocked her way. Lu Chuan followed closely behind Meng Tong, his eyes filled with hostility as he looked at Madam He.

"You, you are not allowed to enter the second wife's room. All the savings have been used up and there is none left."

"Meng Dani, what exactly are you trying to do?" Lu Qian was also furious. He had indeed hidden money in the house, and to prevent Meng Tong from finding it, he also came over. His dark face changed several times before he finally relented and said, "The grain can be distributed to the three households, but..."

Upon hearing this, Meng Tong continued walking forward, but Lu Chuan blocked his way, leaving Lu Qian and Madam He with no way to stop him.

Just as Meng Tong stepped into the second room, Lu Qian finally gave in. He roared angrily, "I'll give you some, Meng Dani. You're just a greedy woman. If the Lu family hadn't been so reluctant to see you starve, you wouldn't have gotten a single grain."

"Second dick."

Lu Feng and Old Man Lu were somewhat reluctant, but they shut up after meeting Lu Qian's gaze.

After receiving the grain, Meng Tong stopped making a fuss. She turned around and smiled at Lu Qian, who had a dark face, and said, "Thank you for your generosity, Second Brother. Third Sister-in-law will never forget your kindness."

Lu Qian snorted coldly, ignoring Meng Tong, but she didn't care and turned to the village chief, smiling as she said, "I'll have to trouble you to distribute the grain, village chief."

"Row."

With a shrewd look, Liu Dazhi understood the situation. He instructed his two sons to divide the grain. Apart from Old Man Lu's share, each family received a bag of dark flour, half a bag of white flour, and some coarse flour.

In short, it wasn't much, but it was what she deserved, so Meng Tong didn't stand on ceremony and had Lu Chuan carry it back to the small, dilapidated house in the third room.

The pots, pans, and other utensils were divided up again. When Meng Tong saw He Shi split a chair in half and give the half with the missing leg to the third wife, Meng Tong burst out laughing.

I'd only ever heard jokes about it before, but now I've seen it for myself.

tough enough.

Finally, it came to dividing the houses. The Lu family insisted on separating the third house, but the village chief, who still had some conscience, did not agree.

However, the third family only got that small, dilapidated house; they didn't get a kitchen or anything else.

Meng Tong wasn't hesitant about this at all; maybe it would all be hers soon!

……

After the family division was completed, Madam He no longer had to cook for the third branch of the family, and she was beaming with joy.

Old Man Lu and Lu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the fate of the third branch of the family would no longer concern them.

That evening, Old Man Lu finally sat in the main seat in the main room, a long-lost smile appearing on his face.

He said, "Today is the big day for Fengzi and me. From now on, our Lu family will definitely prosper more and more. As for the third branch... they will have nothing to do with our Lu family from now on."

"Father is right. From now on, our eldest and second sons will definitely take good care of Father and Mother-in-law. Our Lu family will surely prosper more and more."

He began to flatter, and Lu Qian's usually sullen face showed a rare smile. He picked up the cup in front of him and said to Old Man Lu and Lu Feng, "Congratulations, Father and Elder Brother."

"Ah."

The whole family sat in the main room, creating a truly harmonious and beautiful atmosphere, while the small, dilapidated house of the third room seemed cold and deserted in comparison.

Lu Chuan looked at Meng Tong, who was sitting on the bed in a daze, and assumed she was unhappy. After his eyes flickered twice, he got up and pulled her into his arms.

The warm and reassuring embrace was irresistible to Meng Tong. She nestled into Lu Chuan's arms and looked up to ask, "Are you sad?"

They separated without consulting him.

Meng Tong thought Lu Chuan would be sad, but the reply she received was, "With my wife here, I'm happy."

"And me, wherever Mother is, Yan'er will be too."

"He'er too."

When the two little girls saw their parents hugging, they came over and rubbed their fluffy heads against Meng Tong's chest, like two well-behaved kittens.

Meng Tong reached out and patted the two girls, a genuine smile appearing on his face.

Actually, she didn't feel anything about the separation of the family; she was just thinking about how to proceed in the future. She didn't expect to be misunderstood by the three men.

However, judging from their current situation, their family will likely have a good life in the future.

There are ways to survive when fleeing famine, and there are ways to survive when not fleeing famine.

With his special abilities, spatial abilities, and Lu Chuan's hunting skills, entering the mountains shouldn't be a big problem.

After telling Lu Chuan and the two little ones about her idea, Meng Tong asked for their opinions, "What do you think? Should we go into the mountains?"

"Enter."

The three spoke in unison, with Lu Chuan being particularly excited.

He looked at Meng Tong with his deep eyes and said, "Hunting, for my wife to eat."

He'er helps her mother with chores.

"Yan'er too."

Lu He and Lu Yan raised their little heads to express their opinions, looking incredibly cute.

In the end, Meng Tong made a firm decision: the third branch of the family would go into the mountains before the refugees arrived.

I'll start preparing these next few days.

……

The next morning, before dawn.

The door to the Lu family's house was being pounded on loudly, accompanied by the terrified screams of two men.

“Da Ni, Da Ni, I’m your older brother. Refugees have entered our village, and Mom sent me to ask if you’re alright.”

“Da Ni…”

Refugees entering the village?

The first one to run out was Lu Qian from the second wife's family. He was an inherently vigilant and thoughtful person. Upon hearing the voices of Meng Lao Da and Meng Lao Er, especially the words "refugees entering the village," he immediately jumped out of bed.

He followed closely behind, but then suddenly pulled on a certain part of her body, causing both pain and a touch of shyness.

Really...

"mother……"

"Jun'er, go to sleep. Father and Mother will go out and take a look."

"I am afraid."

Lu Jun huddled in the corner of the bed, his little face filled with terror. He Shi had no choice but to pick him up and go out with Lu Qian.

Inside the courtyard, Meng Laoda and Meng Laoer had already entered, while Lu Laohan, Jia Shi, Lu Feng, and Liu Shi all ran out.

He glanced at Jia and Liu's actions and understood.

"Where's Da Ni?!"

Boss Meng looked around but couldn't find Meng Tong anywhere, and his face was filled with anger.

Lu Qian didn't care whether he looked for Meng Dani or not; he was only concerned about the refugees entering the village.

As Lu Qian walked towards Boss Meng, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth as he asked, "What do you mean by 'refugees entering the village,' Brother Meng?"

"What else could it mean? It's just refugees coming into the village! They kill and rob, they do all sorts of things."

"what?"

Upon hearing Meng Lao Er's words, the Lu family members' expressions turned sour.

Lu Qian glanced at the anxious Boss Meng and asked, "So what's going on here...?"

“We’ve come to ask Meng Dani for some money. Now, if you want to leave Laoshan Town, you have to give twenty taels to the refugees who are guarding Pingkou Village. And they are only the first batch. There are many more refugees behind them.”

“She’s my mother’s daughter. We’re all family and can’t leave together. That’s why I came to ask Da Ni for some money when I didn’t have enough.”

No one would believe what Meng Lao Er said.

Meng Tong, who was resting inside, burst out laughing.

These amazing finds keep coming in waves.
