Chapter 204 Black Dog
The shop has been finalized, and there will be a lot of things to do next.
After dinner, the family sat down to enjoy the cool air under the flower stand in the yard and sorted out what to do next.
Xiaohuan took out the big watermelon from the well and cut it into pieces.
Watermelon is a product of the spiritual field. Yuanyuan had asked birds to bring a lot of seeds before. Shang Wan couldn't tell what they were, so he simply soaked them in spiritual spring water and then planted them to try.
I didn't expect there were so many surprises, including fruits, vegetables, flowers and herbs.
There are only two watermelon vines. Fortunately, the spiritual field is not picky about seeds. If they were planted outside, they would definitely not survive.
Now there are more than ten big watermelons lying in Shang Wan's space. She specifically asked everyone to keep the watermelon seeds so that they can continue to plant them in the future.
Chu Xu was very curious about where the watermelon came from, but Shang Wan calmly said, "Yuanyuan brought it back from the mountains. Go ask Yuanyuan."
Chu Xu ran to ask Yuanyuan happily.
Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes and said in a soft voice, "Ah?"
"This is it," Chu Xu pointed at the sliced watermelon in the fruit bowl, "Where did you pick it from?"
Yuanyuan: “I planted it.”
"Yes, where did you pick it from?"
Yuanyuan: “I planted it.”
Chu Xu thought that the baby just pronounced the word incorrectly, so he patiently corrected Yuanyuan's pronunciation and then asked the same question again.
Yuanyuan didn't answer this time. She just tilted her head and looked at him with a hint of disdain in her eyes.
Chu Xu: “???”
Why does Yuanyuan dislike him?
Yuanyuanzai said that she had answered twice, the little brother is so stupid!
In the end, Chu Xu was unable to get an accurate answer from Yuanyuan.
Watermelons that have not been bred in later generations have thicker rinds. Although they are juicy, they are only slightly sweet and have a lot of seeds.
This is a good opportunity for merchants to collect seeds late.
Lingtian has a selection function. If you plant it a few more times, you might be able to eat a big, sweet and juicy watermelon.
In the past few days, the spiritual fields in Shang Wan's space have increased by two more, and now there are thirty-four fields.
This made her more inclined to the conclusion that the growth of the spiritual field was related to saving people.
Everyone assigned tasks while eating watermelon.
The shop needed a major makeover, and Shang Wan planned to oversee it personally, leaving household affairs to Lu Chengjing and the other two.
The villagers have not been informed about the preparation of the herbal medicine yet. Lu Chengjing plans to talk to Old Man Wu about this matter tomorrow, and then invite the elderly people in the village to come and listen to their opinions.
After all, the old people have been in the village for a long time, and they know best how the villagers will react.
Shitou has to take care of the fields and prepare the herbs, while Xiaohuan is responsible for everyone's food and clothing, and also takes time to help Shitou.
Chu Xu raised his hand actively, "What about me? I want to help too."
"Woah!" Yuanyuan still had a piece of watermelon in her mouth. Seeing the little brother raising his hand, she hurriedly raised her hand as well. Because she spoke too quickly, the watermelon juice in her mouth sprayed out.
Fortunately, there was no one sitting opposite, but Lu Chengjing, who was holding her, was in trouble. The hem of his clothes was stained light pink by the watermelon juice.
Xiaohuan let out an "ah" and frowned slightly.
The material of this dress is good, but because of the good material, it is difficult to wash once it is stained with watermelon juice. If you rub it too hard, the dress will be ruined.
I'm afraid my brother-in-law can only wear these clothes at home.
"It's okay." Lu Chengjing waved his hand nonchalantly, wiped the watermelon juice from the corners of his round mouth with a handkerchief, and said gently, "Don't worry, swallow what's in your mouth before talking."
The little baby didn't know that he had spent five taels of silver with just this bite, and was grinning at his father.
Lu Chengjing pinched her fair little face, took the watermelon rind from his daughter's hand, and replaced it with a new one.
Yuanyuan lowered her head and whimpered, and her clean little face was stained with watermelon juice again. She pursed her pink little mouth and spit watermelon seeds into the basin, making a crisp sound.
"Aunt Shang, I want to help." Chu Xu withdrew his gaze from Yuanyuan, put his hand on Shang Wan's arm and shook it vigorously.
Shang Wan handed him a piece of watermelon and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"whatever?"
Shang Wan nodded, "You speak first."
Chu Xu rolled his eyes and said with a chuckle: "I want to follow you."
The village is too boring. Although the county town is not as good as the capital, it is still a fresh place.
Shang Wan thought about it and nodded in agreement.
She didn't know what was going on with the Chu family army yet, so she felt more at ease keeping Chu Xu under her nose.
To put it bluntly, if another assassin comes, with her there, at least the child's life will be safe.
Yuanyuan may have understood what was said now, and actively expressed that she also wanted to follow her mother.
There were suddenly two more kids in Shang Wan's team.
Xiaohuan was worried that Shang Wan would have to keep an eye on the progress of the shop renovation and would not have time to take care of the two children, so she wanted to help Shang Wan share the burden, so that at least one of them could stay with her.
But the two kids hugged Shang Wan's arms tightly, one on each side, and neither of them wanted to stay.
Even though Xiaohuan tempted them with delicious food, the two kids were not shaken at all.
Shang Wan had no choice but to make three rules with the two of them: they were not allowed to run around once they got to the city, and they had to follow her.
The two children naturally agreed.
After things were settled, Shang Wan began to work on the decoration, going out early and coming back late.
On the first day in the city, Yuanyuan, who had no wolf to walk around in, immediately found herself a dog.
The black dog came from nowhere. Its fur was smooth, black and shiny, and it was fat and strong. It looked like it was living a good life.
Shang Wan pressed his forehead with a headache, "My dear, where did you kidnap me from?"
Yuanyuan tilted her head to look at Chu Xu, it was obvious that the little baby didn't know where he was going.
So Shang Wan also looked at Chu Xu.
The well-informed Master Chu straightened his back and uttered two words, "Casino."
Shang Wan: “…”
My goodness, she didn’t even notice them at first glance, how did these two kids go to the casino?
Didn’t we agree to buy the candy figures at the corner of the street?
"Did you give me money?"
The two kids shook their heads together.
Yuanyuan stroked the ferocious black dog with her small hand and said to Shang Wan with a smile, "Mom, it wants to...flirt with me, come on."
Chu Xu translated and added: "This dog is locked in a big cage. There are many other big cages there. This dog is the fattest and best looking. Yuanyuan likes it very much."
After listening to the two children's words, Shang Wan felt that the black dog should be the fighting dog of the casino. According to Chu Xu's description, it was probably one of the more powerful ones among them.
She said helplessly: "Even if you like someone's dog, you can't steal it."
“No need to worry!” Yuanyuan waved her hands at her mother. The dog came here on its own, not by stealing.
Chu Xu also helped to explain that they followed an orange cat and entered the casino through the dog hole.
Perhaps because the two kids were small, no one in the casino noticed them.
The two followed the orange cat all the way to the dog cage. Yuanyuan used the ointment given by her mother to heal a seriously injured big dog. After applying the ointment, the two left. When they went out, they found that the big black dog followed them all the way back to the shop.
Shang Wan: “…”
Don't pick up dogs on the roadside.
Yuanyuan stretched out her little hands to hug the black dog's neck, looked at her mother with her big watery eyes, and said softly, "I'm so happy!"
Shang Wan dotes on her baby: "If you like it, stay."
When she is free, she can go to the casino and buy the black dog.
