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

Even Meng Tong, who wasn't short, was shocked. She walked into the carriage with her graceful figure and upright posture.

Before she could even react, the layout inside really hit Meng Tong like a ton of bricks.

She had always thought that a carriage was just a simple means of transportation, and that as long as there were a few seats, that would be fine. Even if it was more luxurious, it would just have a small bed to lie down on.

But what lies ahead is far more than that.

The first thing that catches the eye is the most basic wooden bed, which not only looks sturdy and solid, but most importantly, Lu Chuan can actually lie down on it.

Next is the cabinet above the bed, which has three compartments and is quite spacious enough to store bedding, clothes, and other items.

Then, just two steps from the bed, there was a table fixed inside the carriage, with non-slip chairs on both sides. There were also seven or eight empty cabinets under the chairs, which could hold a lot of things.

That's not all; behind the carriage door, there was a space for a clothes rack and a place to put a wooden basin, and on the right side, there was a wooden shoe rack, which was also placed inside the room.

There are so many clever details that Meng Tong feels she can't take them all in.

This is practically an ancient version of a motorhome.

Unable to suppress the smile on his lips, Lu Chuan glanced at Meng Tong and joined in the joy.

His skills are indeed far superior to his; he's at most a newly initiated apprentice.

"How about it? Do you like it?"

Standing at the door with his hands behind his back, Sheng Tao's face was full of pride. His carpentry skills were probably unmatched by many in the Great Wei Kingdom.

He didn't hold back his praise; the old man's smile remained on his face even after he entered the lumber mill.

……

Take out a section of Phoebe zhennan wood that was cut off in advance from the space.

Sheng Tao excitedly squatted down and started touching it, his eyes filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"Little Tong, where did you get this golden nanmu wood? This is top-grade golden nanmu wood!"

Rough hands stroked the cut surface, which appeared to be golden in color and seemed to flow when the sunlight shone through.

Even Lu Chuan, who had never seen it before, knew that this thing was not simple, so the man knelt down on one knee and touched it as well.

It feels so good to use.

"Tong Yatou, are you sure you want to use this as a signboard?"

"Hmm." Nodding again, Meng Tong said in a surprising way, "If Grandpa likes it, I'll give you one later."

"Really, really."

The old man became so excited that his face turned red, and he stood up abruptly from the ground.

Perhaps due to the excessive speed and emotional excitement, he lost his balance and fell backward.

Fortunately, Lu Chuan reacted quickly and took a step forward to hug the old man.

"grandfather."

Grandpa, are you alright?

Meng Tong was also startled and quickly came over to take a look. Fortunately, it was just that he was emotionally agitated and acted rashly.

Sheng Tao helped the old woman sit down on the ground to rest. She recovered in no time and, holding the woman's hand, said, "I'll definitely get this plaque done properly for you. Don't forget what you promised me."

"Okay, I won't go back on my word." Helping Sheng Tao to his feet, Lu Chuan asked in a low voice, "Is Grandpa feeling any better?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

The old man told the two to let go of each other and then started to shoo them away.

He needs to focus on figuring out how to work with this great piece of material.

Seeing that they had no chance to speak, Lu Chuan and Meng Tong had no choice but to return to the courtyard.

After delivering the necessary bedding to the carriage, Lu Chuan and Meng Tong went directly to the open space in the backyard.

The land was used for planting trees and vegetables, and now there are still about five or six acres left.

This is what Meng Tong uses to raise chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs.

Because of the tight schedule, there wasn't enough time to build pigsties, chicken coops, or anything like that, so Lu Chuan took care of that problem when he came back this time.

As for the finishing touches on the town's grain depot and the construction of new houses, Lu Chuan entrusted them to Mingyu.

This kid is indeed very smart, just as his wife said. Now, the real head of the relief hall occasionally gives him advice, which makes things much easier for Lu Chuan.

……

"Wife, do you have more chickens, ducks, geese, or pigs than you bought?"

"not much."

Meng Tong calmly told Lu Chuan the quantity she had bought, while expressionlessly taking stones from her spatial storage.

The two of them just went to the foot of the mountain to get this. Many houses in the village collapsed before, and there were stones, broken bricks and the like inside. At that time, Meng Tong just found a place to pile them up.

Now we use it to build pigsties and such.

There's no need to provide livestock with the best living space. Just ensuring hygiene and warmth is half the battle won. Not to mention, these creatures in the space have been eating the tender grass that her powers have nurtured, so their health will only improve.

Lu Chuan was still within an acceptable range regarding the number of yaks and sheep in Mengtongmaidu, but he was somewhat surprised by the numbers.

These things don't seem to be common in the Great Wei.

"Oh right, let's have hot pot with mutton and beef jerky tonight! I forgot to tell you last night that I bought a lot of things on my trip to the North."

"The beef jerky is made from the yak meat you mentioned."

"Yes, it's delicious. You can try it tonight."

"it is good."

With good food, Lu Chuan worked much faster, building five or six stone houses in just one afternoon.

These are all for keeping pigs. As for chickens, ducks, and geese, that's easier to manage. Just build a big shed and they can run around freely inside.

As for the sheep and yaks, Meng Tong left them in the space for the time being, since the prices were different and it would be heartbreaking if one of them died.

She needs to plan the area carefully and find a good home for them.

……

After a busy day, a light drizzle began to fall as evening approached, and the surrounding cold air also cooled down considerably.

Lu Chuan couldn't bear to see his wife suffer from the cold, so he packed up the tools and took her back to the courtyard.

After returning home and changing into a warmer set of clothes, Meng Tong went to the yard and brought the dolls that were playing wildly back inside.

The woman only felt comfortable letting them go out after she put an extra layer of clothing on each of them.

Heading towards the kitchen, Lu Chuan, Sheng Bing, and Sheng Jin were slaughtering a sheep, while Jiang Zhu and Sheng Yuanyuan were boiling water and doing odd jobs.

Seeing Meng Tong arrive, everyone greeted her. Then Sheng Yuanyuan came over and asked, "Where did Fourth Sister-in-law buy the sheep? It's so fat!"

"You've got some good food! Remember to eat well tonight," Meng Tong said with a smile. "The lamb was bought in the North, and there's beef too!"

"beef."

"That's right! It's not a draft animal, it's a yak unique to the North. The meat is quite good. I bought some beef jerky for you guys to try."

He went inside, grabbed a plate, filled a bowl with beef jerky, and then took a bundle and put it in the kitchen.

Meng Tong carried the bowl to the courtyard and handed it to Jiang Zhu, saying, "Mother, try it, it tastes very good."

“Yuanyuan is here too.”

"Thank you, fourth sister-in-law."

She pinched a small piece of beef jerky, popped it into her mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and exclaimed with delight, "It's so delicious! The flavor inside is so rich!"

Sheng Yuanyuan couldn't help but praise him, and Jiang Zhu nodded repeatedly.

Delicious things can't be hidden forever; within minutes, several little ones came running over, drawn by their sniffing noses.

Lu He pointed to the object in the woman's hand and said, "It's the fragrance it's emitting."

Meng Tong: ……
