Wow, this rough-around-the-edges pregnant wife is something else, she's incredibly ruthless!
Chapter 66: Enhancing Superpowers, Rice Ripens in 2 Days
The next day.
Lu Chuan, unusually, slept in late and got up with Meng Tong. He helped her put on her shoes and clothes and comb her hair, and the two went to the kitchen together.
"My dear wife, we need to soak the wheat for a day or two before we can proceed to the next step. I'll move the wooden basin to the living room and put the wheat in there. I'll fetch water and pour it in to soak it in a bit."
"it is good."
Following Lu Chuan's steps into the living room, the man placed three wooden basins specifically for washing vegetables in the corner of the living room.
Meng Tong simply put the wheat from the space directly into the wooden basin.
The man squatted down to inspect carefully. The wheat used to make wine must be plump and free of insect-eaten, moldy, or other impurities.
Fortunately, none of the grains in the wooden basin were of good quality; each one was plump and looked to be of high quality.
The three wooden basins contained about two hundred catties of wheat, and Meng Tong didn't know how much wine they could brew.
But to start, let's just give it a try first.
Lu Chuan poured clean spring water from the kitchen into a wooden basin to soak the wheat. He said in a low voice, "Soak it for two days before cooking it. That way it will cook through easily."
"Okay." Meng Tong nodded obediently, though she only had a vague understanding of these things.
The wooden basin was left to soak in the room while Lu Chuan went back to the kitchen to make breakfast, and Meng Tong found a chair and sat in the yard to absorb the energy from the plants outside the valley.
She made up her mind. She had to work hard to become stronger and restore her abilities to what they were like in the apocalypse as soon as possible. That way, she would have the confidence and ability to protect the people she wanted to protect when she encountered bad people.
"Mommy, do you need my help?"
"Ah."
Why not use the cheat if you have one? Meng Tong accepted it with a clear conscience.
A continuous flow of energy filled his limbs and bones, and Meng Tong's skin became much smoother. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the comfort of the moment.
Suddenly, the little guy's voice rang out at an inopportune moment, "Mommy, energy needs to be output! Only in this way can your superpowers be stimulated to become stronger."
"But we're not going to lose yet..."
No, Meng Tong turned to look at the grains that had just been planted in the valley.
With a slight shift in her beautiful eyes, Meng Tong's lips curved into a smile.
It really kills two birds with one stone!
Raising his right hand, Meng Tong channeled his supernatural power into the grains in the ground, while his left hand received energy from outside the valley.
The situation was exactly the same as that day.
In the field, the rice and cotton seeds that were originally growing slowly are now growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The two acres of land originally reserved for bison to graze have also sprouted green shoots. Upon closer inspection, isn't that just grass?
With a continuous and abundant flow of energy into the ground, the rice plants began to bear ears of grain in less than half an hour, and the cotton plants began to grow flower buds at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This scene was so bizarre that Lu Chuan, who had been busy in the kitchen for half an hour preparing to call people for dinner, was dumbfounded when he looked at the lush green rice paddies in the field.
Can you believe these are seeds he just sowed yesterday?
"This……"
Turning to look at Meng Tong, who had already stood up, Lu Chuan pointed at the grain in the field and remained silent for a long time.
"I was bored and tried using the magic tool to ripen it, but I didn't expect to lose control and use too much force."
Meng Tong said without changing his expression.
After a two-second silence, Lu Chuan asked, "Will there be any side effects?"
After all, it's like pulling up seedlings to help them grow! And at a rapid pace at that.
"No, it just shortens their maturation cycle." Meng Tong said, patting Lu Chuan on the shoulder and adding another surprising statement, "If we use it again tomorrow, they'll probably be ready to be harvested."
boom.
Lu Chuan felt a moment of dizziness and dared not say that the rice had been harvested just two days after it was planted.
Lu Chuan opened and closed his mouth twice, trying to accept reality; such things would probably only happen more often in the future.
A look of heartache flashed in Lu Chuan's eyes as he put his arm around Meng Tong's waist and asked, "Won't this make you tired?"
"No," Meng Tong replied lightly.
She has found a way to improve herself and her family at the same time, and she is not tired at all.
"That's fine then. Don't do it if it hurts you."
"Yes, I know." Meng Tong was quite happy about his concern, and then pointed to Lu He and her sister's room and said, "I'll go call them to have breakfast."
"I'll go! My wife, go to the living room to eat first. I've made some red date porridge."
"it is good."
Meng Tong went to the living room in a good mood, while Lu Chuan went to call Lu He and Lu Yan.
The two sisters hadn't slept well for the past few days, feeling worried and scared every night. Last night, they finally got a good night's sleep, and Lu Chuan and Meng Tong tacitly refrained from disturbing them.
After waking people up, Lu Chuan took his two daughters to the bathroom to wash up, and then led one of them to the living room, one in each hand.
The sweet and fragrant red date porridge was already served on the table, and the three of them came in, sat down, and immediately picked it up to eat.
At this moment, Lu He spoke up, pointing to the wooden basin behind Meng Tong and asking, "Mother, what are we doing here?"
"These are the preparations your father and mother made for brewing wine."
"Wine wine?"
"Yes, you and Yan'er can drink it when you grow up, but you can't drink it now."
"Mother, what does the wine taste like? Is it delicious?" Lu Yan asked, looking up as she ate, her eyes filled with curiosity.
If it didn't taste good, Mother probably wouldn't have brewed it! Besides, Grandpa... no, I mean Old Man Lu used to love drinking, and he would always bring some back from town.
Lu Yan secretly smelled it once and thought it smelled quite nice, but she didn't know what it tasted like.
Now that she had the chance, the little one looked up at Meng Tong and asked if she would definitely drink it if it tasted good.
"Hmm... It's sweet and spicy, you'll see later."
"Sweet and spicy?"
Lu Yan didn't understand this adjective, but she was successfully persuaded not to drink it, thinking in her heart that it must not taste very good.
It just so happens that my mother and the others like it.
……
After breakfast, Lu Chuan accompanied Meng Tong to take a walk in the fields and sow some grass seeds on the two acres of grassland where the bison grazed. When they arrived, the land was lush and green, and the bison were grazing happily!
This superpower is truly powerful.
He casually scattered a couple of handfuls of rice in the sparser areas, checked on the growth of the rice and cotton, and then went home.
According to Meng Tong, if she were to accelerate the ripening process again tomorrow, these rice and cotton plants would be ready for harvest.
This speed was something Lu Chuan never expected, and at the same time, his sense of urgency grew stronger and stronger.
His deep eyes turned pitch black, like an abyss that made people afraid to look directly at him.
Unbeknownst to him, Lu Chuan was also slowly improving his ability to control beasts. For example, he could now clearly understand the language of beasts, provided that he allowed it.
"Ouch~owoo~"
Mother, Mother.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, the clumsy little wolf came running towards Meng Tong on all fours, wobbling and wagging its tail, its eyes sparkling.
Lu Chuan listened to its howl and glanced at the little wolf with a hint of resentment.
If it calls Meng Tong's mother, then he becomes the father.
But Lu Chuan was reluctant to admit that such a silly, clueless kid could act so obsequiously!
"Ow~"
Father.
