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

She can brew it herself!

The sorghum and other crops we harvested earlier haven't been used yet! Now that we've finished working in the fields, we have some time to put them to good use.

Fortunately, there was no wine, but Meng Tong still got up and went to the kitchen, took a few bamboo cups, and used the juicer in her space to make more than ten cups.

The refreshing and light flavor pairs perfectly with the fragrant grilled meat.

"Mother, what are you going to do with this raw vegetable?!"

Pointing to a plate of vegetable leaves that Meng Tong had washed on the table, Lu Yan asked in confusion.

Lu Chuan and Lu He, who were sitting to the side, also looked over.

"Wife, would you like some vegetables?"

Lu Chuan acted as if he would get whatever Meng Tong wanted to eat, but Meng Tong shook her head and then took out a vegetable leaf from the wooden plate, saying, "It's for wrapping the roasted meat."

As he spoke, Meng Tong picked up two pieces of golden-brown, juicy roasted meat and put them into the leaf, then added a few scallion strips, dipped them in some chili sauce, and finally wrapped the leaf up and put it in his mouth.

This is truly the divine way to enjoy barbecue.

The aroma of grilled meat combined with the fresh scent of vegetables, along with the deliciousness of scallions and chili sauce, made Meng Tong feel as if she were back in her past life.

Chewing bite by bite, Meng Tong looked very satisfied, which made Lu Yan drool. She also picked up a vegetable leaf, just like Meng Tong.

I shoved all the roasted meat from my bowl into the leaf, along with a little of every condiment on the table, until it was almost impossible to roll it up.

But foodies have their ways. With her mouth wide open, Lu Yan took a big bite, and her eyes lit up immediately.

"It's so...delicious."

Unlike simple grilled meat that only has a meaty aroma, this wrapped meat has a rich and satisfying texture.

Holding her small hands tightly around the vegetable bun, Lu Yan ate with gusto.

Lu Chuan and Lu He exchanged a glance and silently followed suit.

My stomach was already 70% full, but I forced myself to eat several more vegetable buns, which, paired with ice-cold watermelon juice, was pure bliss.

Bathed in the bright moonlight, a luminous pearl hung on one side of the courtyard, making the courtyard as bright as day, and the family enjoyed their meal to the fullest.

"Ow~"

"Ho ho ho~"

"Moo~"

Little Wolf, White Night, and Bison were also having a great time, cheering and frolicking.

In particular, Bai Ye would always act unexpectedly in the yard, pawing at the little wolf that had just recovered with his own paws.

The wolf knocked it down with a thud, and it seemed quite pleased with itself, while the little wolf was speechless.

……

Lu Chuan stayed in the courtyard until almost 9 a.m. before getting up to tidy up the yard, while Meng Tong took the two sisters to the bathroom to take a bath.

"Mother, will my little brother still bully you?"

"No, he's quite well-behaved."

"When will he come out? My sister and I will take him to play."

"There are still a few months left! He'll come out when He'er and Yan'er are ready to be big sisters."

"Really..."

In the quiet valley, the sounds of a mother and her two daughters could be heard from the bathroom from time to time. Lu Chuan, standing outside the door, smiled and felt very happy at that moment.

After cleaning up the two sisters and putting them back in their room to lie down, Meng Tong went to the kitchen to find Lu Chuan.

The man was sitting on a stool pouring hot water, which he prepared every night for Meng Tong to soak her feet. She had walked so much these past few days, she needed a good soak.

Seeing Meng Tong walk in, the man stood up, made way for her, and helped her sit down.

"The water will be ready soon, my wife. Would you like to test the water temperature?"

"No need, you always pour it perfectly."

Praised, the man's handsome face lit up with a smile. He picked up the wooden basin, lowered his eyes, and asked Meng Tong, "Would you like to soak in the water inside or in the courtyard, my lady?"

"Let's stay in the yard! It's been so long since I've seen the stars."

The sky was exceptionally beautiful tonight, and the stars were especially lovely. Meng Tong didn't want to go back to her room so early.

Lu Chuan agreed and carried the wooden basin to the yard. He also moved the recliner she often lay on over there.

You can lie down and enjoy stargazing and foot bath at the same time – killing two birds with one stone.

Helping Meng Tong lie down, Lu Chuan brought his small stool and sat opposite her. His slightly rough hands held her small feet, and the man massaged them while observing Meng Tong's expression.

In the light and shadow, the girl wore a light green silk dress, and her originally slender waist was now slightly rounded, exuding a reassuring warmth.

On her fair and beautiful face, he could see a pair of quiet, peaceful, and joyful eyes. Her long, curled eyelashes cast a shadow in the light, like a small fan, fanning away the restlessness in Lu Chuan's heart.

Further down were her high, delicate nose and rosy lips. For some reason, Lu Chuan felt that his wife was beautiful and adorable in every way.

His dark eyes filled with doting affection, and the man's hand moved with a firm yet gentle touch as he asked Meng Tong in a low, husky voice, "Wife, how do you feel?"

"It feels very comfortable. You should take a soak in it later."

"……it is good."

"Tomorrow I'd like to try brewing some liquor with sorghum. Have you ever seen anyone in the village do it before?"

Lying on the recliner, Meng Tong asked Lu Chuan softly.

The man paused for a second, his eyes filled with thought, and after a while, he looked up at Meng Tong and replied, "I've never seen sorghum before, but I have seen wheat."

Although he used to be simple-minded, he was interested in crafts. Once, when he went to town with Lu Qian to sell wild game, he saw an old man brewing wine with wheat.

At that time, Lu Qian, wanting to embezzle a little money from selling wild game, forbade Lu Chuan from following along.

Seeing that he was standing motionless in front of the old man brewing wine, Lu Qian decided to play along and let him wait there.

After a while, Lu Chuan even helped the old man carry two large vats of wine! He said he would deliver them to a place that specializes in selling wine.

The Great Wei Kingdom does not allow private brewing and sales. Apart from a few designated breweries that produce wine monthly and supply it to designated sales locations, no one else is permitted to do so.

Even the wine supplied by restaurants had to be purchased from designated government-run taverns.

As a result, there are relatively few people who know how to brew wine, and it just so happens that Lu Chuan is one of them.

He switched to the other foot and continued massaging. Lu Chuan casually asked Meng Tong, "Does my wife want some wine?"

He remembered that pregnant women shouldn't drink alcohol!

Is something troubling you, my lady? Or...?

The man's eyes were filled with worry, and his movements slowed down considerably.

Upon hearing this, Meng Tong knew he had misunderstood. She sat up, supporting herself on the side of the recliner, and said with a smile, "I definitely can't drink it now. I was thinking of brewing some to drink later."

"Hmm, how about we try it with wheat first tomorrow? As for sorghum, I'll research how to brew it?"

"it is good."

Since someone is willing to help and knows what they're doing, Meng Tong, being a half-baked amateur, won't get involved. He'll just listen to them when the time comes.

After about half an hour in the yard, Bai Ye and the little wolf, who had been frolicking there, went to sleep in their own dens.

After taking a shower, Lu Chuan went into his own room, embraced his fragrant wife, and drifted off to sleep.
