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

The moon was bright and the stars were few; the sweltering heat in the air was completely absorbed into my chest, followed by a refreshing stream that soothed the heat.

Strands of pale green plant energy uncontrollably seeped into everyone lying on the ground.

Like withered trees coming back to life in spring, clear streams flow through every corner of the body, including every tiny cell.

The moment Meng Tong opened her eyes, she felt as if she had been reborn, and everything around her was under her control.

The plants have a special ability to automatically burrow into her body whenever she wants.

She was like the awakened mountain god of Laoshan, able to sense every movement within, including the conversations of the people from Xiangshui Village.

Slowly propping herself up on her arms, the woman found that what she had been holding had turned into a handful of black ashes, which were easily blown away by the wind with a gentle tap, as if it had never existed in the world.

"Ugh, how did I end up lying on the ground?"

"Ouch, my neck hurts so much."

"..."

Hearing sounds from the surroundings, Meng Tong saw Sheng Yuanyuan and Lu Chuan getting up from the ground.

Everyone was dazed, and their legs slipped after taking just a few steps.

"My wife, are you alright?"

A scorching heat source came from behind me, followed by a deep voice in my ear.

Meng Tong glanced at Lu Chuan, whose deep, dark eyes seemed even more unfathomable.

Looking at Sheng Tao and the others who were still unconscious, Meng Tong patted Lu Chuan's hand and said, "I'm fine. Go check on Grandpa and the others."

"it is good."

Helping the woman to her feet, Lu Chuan looked her up and down to make sure she was alright before turning to call Jiang Zhu and the others.

"Grandpa, Father, Mother, Fourth Uncle."

I called them several times before they slowly woke up, each of them looking completely bewildered.

It's like being woken up while you're sleeping soundly.

"what happened?"

"Get up and come inside to talk!"

"it is good."

After helping Sheng Tao and the others into the house, Lu Chuan went outside to greet Sheng Xiu and the others who had returned sometime earlier.

Meng Tong went to the room of Lu He and Lu Yan, as well as to the room of Lu Huai, who was sleeping soundly on the bamboo bed.

I called the little ones many times but they didn't wake up, yet they seemed to have no physical problems.

Meng Tongmo's dark eyes flickered slightly, then he covered them with the blankets and told them to continue sleeping.

This situation likely stems from the fact that the energy from the Phoenix Bone was too great, and they couldn't withstand it, requiring a period of respite.

……

main hall.

Everyone sat in their chairs, their eyes fixed intently on Meng Tong.

After struggling with many words and phrases, Sheng Tao excitedly asked, "Tongtong, how did you... activate the Phoenix Bone?"

“I was born with a magical artifact. When you gave me the item, I went back to my room and, feeling bored, tried using the artifact to test it out, and it was activated.”

Since there was nothing left to hide, Meng Tong revealed that she possessed a magical artifact, but she kept the fact that it was a plant-based superpower a secret.

"What? Sister-in-law, you were born with a divine artifact."

"Yes, I only discovered this thing last year."

"I can see..."

"Zhuzhu".

Sheng Tao glanced at the excited Sheng Zhuzhu, giving her a warning look, then turned to Meng Tong and said, "It seems that our Sheng family and you are truly destined to be together!"

"I thought no one would ever be able to activate this Phoenix Bone, but I never expected... I should have given it to you sooner."

With a smile and a sense of relief in his eyes, Sheng Tao looked at everyone present that night.

Whether it was fate or not, they were all from the Sheng family, and the boys who were supposed to be in other villages also returned.

With a deep sigh, the old man didn't say much more, only addressing Sheng Xiu and the others, "Remember the opportunity you received today; it's all thanks to Tongtong."

"We will always remember."

All the women stared at Meng Tong with bright, sparkling eyes, making them feel a little embarrassed.

She really did have an unexpected and wonderful surprise tonight!

……

Lying in the warm blankets, Lu Chuan held Meng Tong's hands tightly, both of them staring intently at the ceiling.

"Miss."

"Ah."

"You..." Lu Chuan hesitated for a long time before glancing at the woman beside him, his heart filled with complex emotions.

"What's wrong? What do you want to say?"

After not hearing Lu Chuan's voice for a long time, Meng Tong turned her head to look at him. The woman's eyes were beautiful and clear, with an unconscious scrutiny.

Lu Chuan held Meng Tong's hand and stroked it, his dark, deep eyes flashing slightly before a smile appeared on his lips.

He changed the question he originally wanted to ask to, "My wife, I will always be by your side from now on."

"Yeah, I know!"

"how about you?"

"me too."

His dark eyes lit up; that was exactly what the man wanted to hear.

He turned and pulled the woman into his arms, resting his chin gently on her rounded shoulder.

He gently inhaled her unique scent, and the sound that came from his throat carried an indescribable laughter.

Meng Tong didn't understand what he meant, and just thought he was being clingy!

……

Sheng Xiu and the others tacitly kept quiet about the changes in Duanshan Village. They continued to operate as usual within their own jurisdictions, occasionally making a trip to Duanshan Village for a treat.

However, the changes in them were beyond imagination.

After sleeping through the night, Lu He, Lu Yan, and Lu Huai finally woke up.

Compared to before, they seem to have remained unchanged, still doing what they always do every day.

Meng Tong didn't expect them to have great fortune; he just wanted them to be healthy and happy.

The woman carried the sleeping Lu Huai out of the yard and put the little guy on the ground to play.

The White Nights, which returned last night, have already been strolling around the courtyard, familiarizing themselves with their territory.

Upon seeing the little guy who suddenly appeared, Bai Ye affectionately licked Lu Huai's little head with his tongue.

"Tiger Tiger, hit!"

He raised his hand and slapped Bai Ye on the head. It didn't hurt, but it stunned Hu.

Bai Ye's eyes were full of grievance.

Lu Huai pointed to his head and Bai Ye said in a childish voice, "Hair, bald."

Hearing this as soon as he stepped outside, Meng Tong burst out laughing.

Such a small child already knows how to protect his hair.

"Miss."

"Ok?"

With a smile still on her face, Meng Tong turned to look at Lu Chuan, who had suddenly appeared, and asked, "What's wrong? What's with your outfit?"

The man changed back into the gray-white shorts he used to wear, and tied his dark hair up with a tattered cloth strip.

The air of refinement he had cultivated had vanished, replaced by his former rough and rugged demeanor.

As he stepped down the stone embankment, Lu Chuan smiled and said, "The village's land needs to be plowed, so I'll take the wild ox over to check on it today."

“My wife doesn’t like this outfit? Then I’ll go back and change. I figured I don’t need to wear anything too nice for working in the fields, and this is comfortable enough.”

"No, no, I was just asking. This outfit is fine."

Meng Tong quickly stopped Lu Chuan and continued, "Then I'll go with you to the fields to plow today."

"Need not."

"Why? There are so many things you can't handle all by yourself."

But Lu Chuan revealed a cryptic expression.

He said, "I can do it; I can finish it in two days."
