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

Chapter 182 Preparing for a New Round of Sweeping, Buying Poultry

Walking along the newly built corridor, past piles of bricks and various pieces of wood, you arrive at an open space.

Dozens of simple wooden houses were built, and Lu Chuan and his group stayed there temporarily.

Pushing open the wooden door on the left, Lu Chuan led Meng Tong and the other three inside.

The cabin wasn't particularly large. Besides a bed with two thick mattresses on it, there was only a table, two chairs, and a small box for storing men's change of clothes.

"Why did you come to live here? The weather is getting colder and colder, and it's easy to get sick here."

Scanning the room, Meng Tong raised an eyebrow, a hint of heartache in her eyes.

The man tucked the baby into a clean blanket, got up, pulled over a chair for the mother and her two daughters to sit down, and then said with a nonchalant smile, "It's alright, we won't be cold at all if we close the doors and windows tightly at night."

"Furthermore, there are walls all around here, so the cold wind can't get in."

The man washed the only teacup in the room and poured Meng Tong a cup of water. He sat down next to her and said, "My wife, don't worry. We're just staying here temporarily. This room is only for temporary rest."

"Okay, as long as you understand." With her brows relaxed, Meng Tong took a sip of her tea and continued, "You're making pretty good progress. Make sure everyone gets some rest. The weather's getting cold now. I came here today to bring the children to see you and to deliver some cotton seeds."

"When the time comes, you can have Liu Xiong and the others deliver the produce to the various villages, and have Sheng Xiu and the others plant it as soon as possible. If they work quickly, they can have a harvest by early December."

He didn't dare ask why the process had matured so quickly this time, and Lu Chuan nodded in agreement.

"Okay."

"Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you."

"What is it, my wife?"

It was rare for his wife to tell him everything today, and the man's sharp, handsome face was now tinged with a sincere smile.

Taking in the man's worthless smile, Meng Tong told him that she was going out to buy poultry.

"Could you ask around in town if anyone wants to raise any other poultry? I'll bring them back with me."

"My lady...can I bring live animals?"

Lu Chuan looked into the composed woman's eyes. If he remembered correctly, his wife's artifact couldn't hold living creatures before.

Could it be something from last time...?

With a slight glint in his eyes, Lu Chuan glanced at Meng Tong's expression and understood.

"Okay, I'll go back to the brick kiln in a bit and ask around, and give my wife a tally."

"Okay, I'll also ask Sheng Xiu and the others, I'll bring them back with me."

"……Can."

Anyway, Meng Tong might not listen to anything else he said, and men gradually got used to her way of doing things after experiencing more of her.

In any case, buying some poultry won't cause any problems.

……

After spending most of the day at the grain depot, Lu Chuan went back to work for an hour or two, then changed into clean clothes before driving the carriage back to the brick kiln with Meng Tong and the other three.

This time, Meng Tong didn't go in. She only asked Lu Chuan to tell Ming Yu about the poultry, and then the family happily returned to Duanshan Village.

No see in one day, like every three autumns.

Not to mention that more than ten days had passed, and while staying in the detached house, Lu Huai and the two sisters, who had been put to sleep, were moved to the neighboring courtyard.

The spring night was too short tonight. As dawn broke, a deep and satisfying exchange finally came to an end.

The weather is getting cooler one day and hotter the next.

Yesterday's drizzle has turned into today's bright sunshine, with sunlight streaming in through the window and filling the room.

Scattered specks fell on the scattered clothes, and an indescribable smell filled the entire room.

Opening his sleepy eyes, Lu Chuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart as he looked down at his wife, who was sleeping soundly beside him.

All the fatigue from the past few days has vanished at this moment.

Feeling refreshed, Lu Chuan got out of bed and diligently cleaned up the mess, dispersing the smell from the room before picking up all the clothes on the floor.

After a busy morning, having washed clothes and made breakfast, Meng Tong finally woke up when the man's footsteps entered the house again.

"woke up."

"Ah."

With a hoarse voice, Lu Chuan helped the woman sit up, his gentle aura almost melting her heart.

The man dressed Meng Tong himself with practiced ease, and even had the leisure to ask a couple of questions.

"Does it hurt?"

"Should we apply some medicine?"

"Get lost." Giving the man a knowing look, Meng Tong vowed never to flirt with him again.

This level of exertion is truly beyond what most people can handle.

If it weren't for her special abilities, she probably would have... *cough* last night.

……

Lu Chuan stayed in Duanshan Village for two days before returning to the town, and Meng Tong went with him this time.

Lu Chuan would leave the children in the care of Jiang Zhu and the others, and would occasionally come back to check on them.

Meng Tong is quite reassured about this.

They still took a horse-drawn carriage to the town, and Lu Chuan took Meng Tong directly to the brick kiln.

"Madam, these are the poultry that people in town want to raise, but most want pigs."

"The other photos are from various villages. I counted that everyone's favorite foods are pigs and chickens."

"Well, let me see."

Meng Tong took the list that Mingyu had written down and glanced at it twice.

There are piglets, chickens, ducks, geese, and of course sheep.

Meng Tong had planned all of this, so he wasn't surprised at all.

She even considered getting a few dairy cows, but she didn't know if she could find any.

After packing up his belongings and giving everyone a brief explanation, Lu Chuan couldn't wait to leave the brick kiln with the woman.

"My wife, are you sure you don't need me to come along?"

"No need." Meng Tong shook her head and said with a smile, "You stay home and lead everyone in the renovation. I'm just going to buy some things and I'll be back soon."

"Ok, I know."

His large, calloused hand, with its distinct knuckles, tightly gripped the woman's small hand, and Lu Chuan's brows were furrowed with worry.

"Then... be careful and come back soon. I'll be waiting for you at home."

"Ah."

With a faint smile on her face, Meng Tong quickly kissed the man on the cheek as she let go of his hand.

"wait me back."

"……it is good."

Watching the woman leave without hesitation, Lu Chuan subconsciously clenched his fists, his eyes filled with reluctance.

Meng Tong couldn't understand why she was so emotional; she was actually quite happy to be able to go out and explore on her own.

This also gives you a chance to see what the outside world is really like.

Without lingering, Meng Tong walked into the mountains and found a relatively flat spot.

Then they boarded the "green carpet" and flew north.

Her first destination was Beijing. She had seen sheep and other animals there before, but she couldn't fit them in the store, so she didn't buy any.

Now, she even wants to get a few camels.
