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

outside the house.

Jiang Zhu and the others who went to the fields have returned and are now sitting in the courtyard chatting with Lu Chuan and the others.

"Daddy, don't you think the dresses Mommy bought for us are pretty?"

Running up to Lu Chuan, Lu Yan twirled around, pulling on her skirt, and looked up at him hopefully.

Lu He wanted to come closer and ask, but she was a little shy. The girl was a bit bashful, but her eyes were also on Lu Chuan.

The man paused for a second as he turned his head when two little fairy children suddenly appeared, then his dark eyes filled with a doting smile.

Pulling his two daughters to his side, the man looked them over carefully and said, "Beautiful, like little fairies descended from heaven."

"really?"

"Of course it's true, Auntie wouldn't lie. Come here and give me a kiss."

Sheng Zhuzhu looked at the two "Little Red Riding Hoods" like a big bad wolf. Lu He and Lu Yan hesitated for a second, but then couldn't resist her saying they were pretty, and rushed into Sheng Zhuzhu's arms while lifting their little skirts.

Sheng Zhuzhu adored her soft, sweet-smelling little girl.

He hugged the two sisters and whispered a lot of things to them.

Everyone was used to her childish behavior, but something flashed in Cheng Mian's eyes.

"Ah~ Father, Father."

Everyone was still watching the Lu He and Lu Yan sisters when suddenly a childish, slightly loud voice came from behind.

Turn around and look.

Oh my god, where did this young master come from?

Dressed in a jade-white silk brocade robe, the little guy also wore a black hat embroidered with gold tiger heads and a gold lock around his neck, making him both noble and adorable.

Even Lu Chuan couldn't immediately recognize that this was his son.

Holding onto the door frame, Lu Huai was dissatisfied with everyone's reaction. He let out a roar, "Ah ah!" as if he were a real little tiger.

Meng Tong was amused by his reaction.

She bent down, picked up the little one, and then walked towards everyone.

Lu Chuan got up and got her a chair.

After Meng Tong sat down, Lu Chuan turned his head to look at the little one in the woman's arms.

Their eyes met, and Lu Huai turned Lu Chuan's head away.

The little guy got angry. He had called for his father, but the other person didn't respond.

Since that's the case, then I'll just ignore him. It's still more comfortable in my mother's soft, fragrant arms.

The whole family was chatting in the courtyard when Meng Tong finally met someone she had never seen before: Lu Chuan's grandfather, Sheng Tao.

To be honest, it was a bit beyond her expectations. She had originally thought he would be a rather intimidating old man, but the man in front of her had dark skin and was very approachable, making him seem like an older elder in the village.

If there's anything special about him, it's probably his eyes!

He was nearly eighty years old, yet his eyes remained dark and deep, possessing a captivating allure.

Meng Tong remembered that he, like Lu Chuan, could control beasts, but it seemed that his ability was gradually declining, and he didn't know why.

……

Of course, they had to celebrate their first night back, so Lu Chuan, Sheng Yu, and the others went to the mountains. They hunted some pheasants and rabbits, and on their way back down the mountain, they encountered a silly roe deer.

Don't be shy, take them all back with you. Lu Chuan will be cooking tonight, and the others will assist.

As for Meng Tong and the other women, they were playing with the children in the courtyard.

As the sun sets, the faint sounds of children's laughter, women's instructions, and the conversation of several men in the kitchen can be heard in the courtyard.

Sitting on a recliner under the eaves, Sheng Tao watched this scene with a smile in his eyes, lost in thought.

With many people working together, things get done quickly. One person kills a chicken while another kills a rabbit. Before long, all the food is served piping hot in less than two hours.

They ate in the courtyard again tonight. Meng Tong instructed Lu He and Lu Yan to keep an eye on Lu Huai, while she went to the living room to move tables and chairs.

Then comes getting bowls and chopsticks, serving dishes, and so on.

Tonight's menu includes more than ten dishes, such as spicy rabbit, chicken stew with mushrooms, spicy stir-fried roe deer meat, braised pork ribs, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and more.

There were also several seafood dishes, all brought by Sheng Tao from the island when he came here, so that Lu Chuan's family could have some.

These seafood items are all stored in Shengbing's private little space.

There are several kinds of seafood, including lobster, crab, clams, and octopus, and some of them are cooked into a stewed seafood soup according to the island's cooking methods.

Some were grilled by Meng Tong and then barbecued; with her barbecue seasoning, the taste was absolutely amazing.

Like the Lu sisters, Lu He and Lu Yan, sitting next to Lu Chuan and Meng Tong, each of them holding an octopus leg and munching on it with great relish.

……

After returning and resting for three days, Meng Tong and Lu Chuan began planning the transformation of Duanshan Village.

Meng Tong bought a lot of things on this trip, including bricks and tiles. She wasn't joking when she said she could build a whole street with them.

Sitting around in the living room, Sheng Yu looked at the drawings that Meng Tong had already completed for a long time.

The man's face was cold, but the admiration in his eyes was undeniable.

He hadn't expected Meng Tong to be so bold; she had actually included the entire town in her plans, including its future development.

Duanshan Village is just the beginning.

"Sister-in-law, have you thought about the government officials later? Laoshan Town is part of the Great Wei territory."

Clearly, everyone had thought of this problem; her actions amounted to her becoming a mountain king.

If the government of the Great Wei finds out, they will probably send troops to suppress or even annihilate them.

Meng Tong remained silent for a while before looking up and smiling, "But it hasn't happened yet, has it? Besides, I don't think they can beat me."

Women certainly have the right to be flamboyant, and this trip has already proven it.

If we're talking about ruling the mountains, then Dawn Island is no exception! They just had a natural geographical advantage; otherwise, they would have been gone long ago.

With a smile playing on his lips, Sheng Xiu spoke in a gentle voice, "If that's the case, then go ahead and do it! There are a few skilled craftsmen on Dawn Island; would you like to bring them over to assist you?"

"Not for now," the woman said with a smile. "I'll tell my second brother when I need it."

"Alright, I'll tell my brother to go and bring the person over."

"it is good."

……

Everyone was just worried about Meng Tong's behavior, but now that she has said so, they can finally relax.

The next step is to vigorously transform Duanshan Village.

Meng Tong was the chief designer, running around the village with Lu Huai every day, while Lu Chuan was in charge of implementation. As for Sheng Xiu and Sheng Yu, they became employees.

Every day, I followed Lu Chuan to build walls and lay bricks, and my originally fair skin became several shades darker from the sun.

However, everyone was very happy, and there was a sense of peace and tranquility about life.

While they were busy building houses, Sheng Tao and his two companions still carried hoes to the fields to weed without fail.

For this reason, Meng Tong also left more than ten acres of land at the foot of the mountain in the village to the three people. Originally, it was going to be left anyway. Rather than removing unnecessary weeds, it would be better to dig up the wasteland that was really needed.

Everyone has their own responsibilities. We get up together in the morning, have breakfast together, and then go to do our respective jobs.

This lifestyle lasted for nearly three months until it was disrupted by the arrival of one person.
