Chapter 206 Black Dog
The shop has been finalized, and there are many things to be busy with next.
After dinner, the family enjoyed the shade under the flower stand in the yard while thinking about 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 let the birds pick up a lot of seeds before. Shang Wan couldn't identify what they were, so he simply soaked them in the spiritual spring water and tried planting them.
I never expected that there would be many surprises, including fruits, vegetables, flowers and herbs.
There are only two watermelon vines. Fortunately, the spiritual field does not pick seeds. If they were planted outside, they would not survive.
Now there are about ten large 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. Shang Wan lied without changing his expression, "Yuanyuan brought it back from the mountains. Ask Yuanyuan."
Chu Xu ran to ask Yuanyuan.
Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes, her voice was soft and soft, "Huh?"
"That's it," Chu Xu pointed to the cut watermelon in the fruit plate, "Where did you pick it?"
Yuanyuan: "I planted it."
"Yes, where did you pick it from?"
Yuanyuan: "I planted it."
Chu Xu just thought that the little baby's pronunciation was incorrect, and after patiently correcting Yuanyuan's pronunciation, he asked the same question again.
Yuanyuan didn't answer this time, she just tilted her head and looked at him with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
Chu Xu: "???"
Why does Yuanyuan dislike him?
Yuanyuanzai said that she had already answered it twice. My little brother is so stupid!
In the end, Chu Xu couldn't get an accurate answer from Yuanyuan.
Watermelons that have not been bred by later generations have a thicker rind. Although they are juicy when eaten, they only have a little sweetness and there are many watermelon seeds.
This is a cheap way for merchants to collect seeds late.
Lingtian has a preferential function. If you wait a few times, you may be able to eat a big watermelon that is sweet and juicy.
In the past few days, the number of spiritual fields in Shangwan's space has grown by two more, and now there are thirty-four.
This made her more and more inclined to the conclusion that the growth of the spiritual field was related to saving people.
Everyone ate watermelon while assigning tasks.
The decoration of the shop was going to be greatly improved, and Shang Wan planned to keep an eye on it personally, leaving Lu Chengjing and the others in charge of the household affairs.
The villagers have not been informed about the preparation of herbal medicine. Lu Chengjing plans to go to Father Wu tomorrow to talk about the matter, and then invite the elderly in the village to listen to their opinions.
After all, the old people have stayed 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 herbs, while Xiaohuan is responsible for everyone's food and clothing, and takes time to help Shitou.
Chu Xu raised his little hand actively, "What about me? I want to help too."
"Hot!" Yuanyuan still had a piece of watermelon wrapped in her mouth. When she saw her little brother raising his hands, he quickly raised his hands too. Because he spoke too hastily, the watermelon juice in his mouth spurted out.
Fortunately, there was no one sitting across from her, but Lu Chengjing, who was holding her in his arms, suffered a disaster. The hem of his clothes was stained pale pink by the watermelon juice.
Xiaohuan said "Ah" and frowned slightly.
This dress is made of good material, but because of the good material, it is difficult to wash if 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 warmly, "Don't worry, swallow what's in your mouth before you speak."
The little baby didn't know that she had lost five taels of silver with this bite, and she was grinning at her father.
Lu Chengjing pinched her fair little face, took the watermelon rind away from his daughter's hand, and replaced it with a new one.
Yuanyuan buried her head and moaned, and her little face that she had just wiped clean was stained with watermelon juice again. The pink little mouth pouts and spits watermelon seeds into the basin, the sound is crisp and clear.
"Aunt Shang, I want to help." Chu Xu looked away from Yuanyuan, put his hand on Shang Wan's arm, and shook it hard. Shang Wan handed him a piece of watermelon and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Anything?"
Shang Wan nodded, "You speak first."
Chu Xu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I want to follow you."
The village is so boring. Although the county town is not as good as the capital city, it is a fresh place at least.
Shang Wan thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
The Chu family army still didn't know what was going on, so she could rest assured that Chu Xu was under her nose.
To put it bluntly, if another assassin comes looking for him, as long as she is here, at least the child's life will be safe.
Yuanyuan may have understood the words now, and actively expressed that Zaizai should also follow her mother.
Shang Wan's one-man team instantly had two more children.
Xiaohuan was worried that Shang Wan would have to keep an eye on the progress of the shop decoration and would not have time to take care of the two children, so he wanted to help Shang Wan share the burden and at least keep one of them.
But the two children, one on the left and the other on the right, were holding Shang Wan's arms tightly, and neither of them wanted to stay.
Even though Xiaohuan tempted her with delicious food, the two children were not swayed at all.
Shang Wan had no choice but to make an agreement with the two of them: when they arrived in the city, they were not allowed to run around and had to follow her.
The two children naturally agreed.
After the matter was settled, Shang Wan began to go out early and come home late to work on decoration.
On the first day in the city, Yuanyuan, who didn't have a walking wolf, found a walking dog for herself every minute.
The black dog came from nowhere. His hair was smooth, black and shiny, and he was fat and strong. At first glance, he seemed to be doing well.
Shang Wan pressed his eyebrows with a headache, "My dear, where did you kidnap me from?"
Yuanyuan tilted her head and looked at Chu Xu. It was obvious that the little baby didn't know where she was going.
So Shang Wan also looked at Chu Xu.
The well-informed Young Master Chu straightened his waist and spat out two words, "Casino."
Shang Wan: "..."
Good guy, she didn't even catch a glimpse of them. Why did these two kids go to the casino?
What about the people who agreed to buy candy at the corner of the street?
"Did you give me any money?"
The two children shook their heads together.
The round little hand touched the big black dog that looked very fierce at first sight, and smiled at Shang Wan and said: "Mom, it's...having fun with me, come on."
Chu Xu translated and added: "This dog is locked in a big cage. There are many big cages there. This dog is the fattest and the most beautiful. Yuanyuan likes it very much."
After listening to what the two children said, Shang Wan felt that this black dog should be a fighting dog in the casino. From Chu Xu's description, he was probably the more powerful one among them.
She said helplessly: "You can't steal other people's dogs even if you like."
"No head!" Yuanyuan waved her little hand towards her mother. The dog came by running alone, not stealing.
Chu Xu also helped explain that they followed an orange cat and entered the casino through a dog hole.
Perhaps because the two children were small, no one in the casino noticed them.
The two followed the orange cat all the way to the place where the dog cage was kept. Yuanyuan used the ointment given by her mother to treat the injury of a seriously injured big dog. After applying the ointment, the two left. When they got out, the two of them discovered that the big black dog was following them all the way back to the shop.
Shang Wan: "..."
Don't pick up dogs on the roadside.
Yuanyuan stretched out her little hands and hugged the black dog's neck. She looked at her mother with her big watery eyes and said softly, "I'm so happy!"
Shang Wan, a doting child: "If you like it, stay."
When she is free, she will go to the casino and pay for the black dog.
