Happiness System

"why are not you sleeping?"

Wen Yujin saw his wife pretending to sleep on a chair and wanted to carry her to the bed, but he was afraid that his smell would bother her.

"Are you back?" Meng Yuxi opened her eyes and yawned, "Are you hungry? I'll go heat up some food for you!"

Wen Yujin quickly pulled her back and said, "I've already eaten. Xier's food is delicious!"

"As long as Brother Jin likes it!" Meng Yuxi twitched her nose, "Shall I ask Xiaoxia and the others to fetch water for Brother Jin to wash?"

"No need to go through so much trouble, Xier, just find me some clean clothes!"

"it is good!"

The clothes had been prepared long ago. Meng Yuxi carried them to him, then lit the oil lamp and picked up a half-book to read.

Anyway, I won’t be leaving tomorrow, so what’s wrong with staying up late and sleeping in!

"Xi'er, the oil lamp is dim and dazzling, please don't hurt your eyes."

Wen Yujin came back from taking a shower, took away her book, carried her to the bed, covered her with the quilt, and fell asleep in less than a moment.

Meng Yuxi: “???” How tiring must this be?

When I woke up the next day, there was nothing next to me!

Xiao Xia heard the noise and pushed the door open. "Madam, are you going to get up? The master will be on duty at the end of the Mao hour (close to seven o'clock)."

Meng Yuxi hummed, "Has he had breakfast?"

"Yes, the kitchen cooked braised pork noodles for the master, and also added vegetarian buns."

Xiao Xia walked over, helped her up and helped her get dressed.

Meng Yuxi covered her mouth with her slender white fingers and yawned, "It seems to be a little warmer today?"

"Yes, ma'am, it looks to me like the sun is coming out!"

"Oh? Have someone watch the grain carefully. Ventilate what needs to be ventilated, dry what needs to be dried, and check everything else carefully to see if any moisture has entered in the past two days..."

Meng Yuxi thought about it and felt that it seemed that it would be dry in the future. After the temperature dropped this time, it quickly rose again.

At the end of September, it should be the time for the north to prepare for winter, but the temperature soared to over 40 degrees Celsius and reached a maximum of nearly 50 degrees Celsius. Even the mutant plants died.

There was no rain for the next two months, and the water shortage became worse as we went on...

People and animals were exhausted in the hot weather. Some horses and mules that were doing heavy labor died of exhaustion and thirst. Some idiots even threw away their cotton-padded clothes and quilts to lighten their burden.

Then on the first day of the new year, as soon as I got up, the scorching heat started to cause snow to fall, and then the temperature dropped as it snowed.

The late winter is coming!

If she didn't want to expose her space, she would have wanted to pick up some "garbage" and turn it into treasure to make a fortune!

After breakfast, Meng Yuxi was bored to death. If she went to her father's place, she would definitely be caught studying.

So she simply took her people out of the city and into the mountains.

There is a large group of people living behind us, so it is not easy to get things.

Now everyone despises these mutated herbs, but in a few months they may even have to fight over them!

The Wen family has sufficient manpower and transportation capacity, so it is always good to add more, after all, they are all things that are visible!

"Madam, everything is ready. Leave twenty people here to look after the house, and the rest will follow you out."

"Well, what about the Meng family?"

"We're ready too, waiting outside!"

Meng Yuxi went downstairs and found Meng Yuman from the first room and Meng Yuna from the second room were also in the team. One of them was thirteen and the other fifteen years old. They were always the pampered young ladies who never went out of the house.

Seeing Meng Yuxi looking at her two sisters, Meng Shibai stepped forward and said, "Sister Xi, we will keep an eye on Sister Man and Sister Na and will not let them hold us back."

Meng Yuxi nodded, "We won't go too far today, let's try to get back to the city before dark!"

Meng Shibai nodded and immediately arranged for the Meng family members to get on the carriage and horses.

When people from other families learned that the Wen and Meng families had actually left the city to become the Chosen Ones, they all thought they were crazy!

Although there is no rain today and the dark clouds have dispersed, the events of the past few days are still fresh in everyone’s mind as they just escaped death!

Aren’t you afraid of landslides?

The heavy rain and floods a few days ago directly killed and dispersed tens of thousands of people. Out of a team of more than 200,000 people, only about 100,000 have safely arrived in Mo City, and tens of thousands are still stranded on the other side of the Heihe River.

The land route is currently impassable, so those people can only take the water route. However, the water level has not yet dropped to a level suitable for navigation, and most of the ships have been washed away or destroyed!

Now it all depends on the attitude of the person above, and also on whether there are any important people among the tens of thousands of people stranded.

Seeing the Wen and Meng families leave, many people were eager to follow, but no one dared to follow!

In fact, since the rain stopped yesterday, or should I say since it started raining, no one dared to go near the mountains and forests, except for the lower-class people who had no surplus food at home, for fear of encountering landslides!

Meng Yuxi also relied on her wood-related abilities to dare to lead people out, and in this way she gained an advantage.

Maybe it was God’s compensation for the vitality of mankind. Even if Meng Yuxi did not take action, there were still many edible natural plants on the mountain!

Meng Yuna and Meng Yuman couldn't tell the difference between natural plants and mutant plants, so they went up the mountain like they were on a spring outing. "Wow! There are so many foods! We can help pick them!"

Then the two girls perfectly avoided natural plants and picked only those beautiful mutated plants that were inedible.

"It's over. Except for Sister Xi, all the women in the Meng family are useless!" Meng Shibai suddenly felt powerless.

If the women in their family were accidentally separated, they probably wouldn’t survive more than three days!

Either they starve to death or they are poisoned by inedible mutated plants!

Enduring a heart attack, he called his youngest cousin over and asked him to take good care of his two younger sisters.

Then, the whole mountain and plain were filled with Meng Shiqi's roar.

"Are you a pig? This is poisonous!"

"You are worse than a pig. I have told you three times that this is not a natural plant and cannot be eaten!"

"You useless piece of shit, could you please stop making trouble?"

"Your feet hurt? You just walked a few steps?"

"Hand hurts? Look at your basket..."

"you......"

The two girls were scolded so badly that they cried and made a fuss about going back to the inn.

Meng Shibai's face also looked unhappy. He didn't expect that the family conditions were so poor, but the elders still raised the girl so pampered!

He said sullenly, "Abin, send them down the mountain, show them samples of all the natural plants available, explain to them in detail, and let them identify and distinguish between natural and mutant plants on the carriage... If they can't learn and do this well, starting today, their diet will be reduced by 50%!"

I have to talk to my grandfather when I get back. This won’t work!

In a blink of an eye, she looked at Meng Yuxi who was looking for something with the Wen family guards, and sighed again. The only girl who made a name for herself actually married into another family!

As for Meng Yuxi, after discovering that there were so many natural plants, she no longer hesitated and secretly gave birth to quite a few more.

She only grows high-starch plants that are easy to fill the stomach, and she also promotes the growth of pumpkins and winter melons that are long-lasting and easy to store.

Everyone was busy, and she slacked off for three hours. Finally, they reached their maximum capacity this time. The group of people could only watch with regret as the remaining things were carried down the mountain.

Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality!

Even if they could get the things down the mountain and go back to the city to find people to transport them back, as the first to take action, the people behind them would rush to the exit and not be able to find the things, and might even unite to trip them up.

There is still a long way to go. Once isolated...

You can imagine what that day was like!

In fact, the world is quite chaotic. Although there are many restrictions and suppression in following the main force, it does save you a lot of worry in terms of safety.

This sense of security will become much more obvious once you leave the territory of Daqi Kingdom.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to come out as I please in the future."

Meng Shibai secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wen Yujin and his men coming out to pick them up.

This time they finally felt the changes in the world very clearly. Things really changed, and the country was really ruined!

Meng Yuxi also knew that there were several forces eyeing their supplies, but most of them were just a mob, so she was not nervous.

Wen Yujin abandoned his horse and got into the carriage. "Why did you come out? You've been tired and frightened for a few days. Xier should have a good rest in the inn!"

Meng Yuxi leaned on his shoulder and smiled, "I just felt a little bored in the room and wanted to go out for a walk!

When everyone sees us bringing things back, maybe a large group of people will rush out of the city!"

Wen Yujin sighed and rubbed her head, "The governor of Mocheng ran away with the officials' families, and His Majesty was very angry...

This situation is expected to become more and more common. Every city is unattended, and it will be difficult to find a safe place to recuperate in the future.

The world is going to be in chaos, don’t leave the majority to look for things anymore…”

"This is probably the last time." Meng Yuxi lowered her voice, "There may be no rain in the future and there will be a severe drought!"

Wen Yujin was shocked, "What do you mean?"

"I sensed it myself. You'll know if the sun comes out tomorrow and the temperature returns to normal! By the way, when are we leaving?"

"Many land routes near the Black River have been washed away, and many official roads near the mountains have been blocked by collapsed mountains...

The bosses have been arguing for the whole day but have not come to a conclusion, but they haven't said they will leave today...

They are all frightened, and will probably stop to observe the weather and see if the people behind can catch up..."

Meng Yuxi knew all of this. The day before yesterday, the family that followed them to Mo City encountered a landslide and was almost buried.

So she asked about the situation over at Wen Yujin's place.

There was nothing to hide about this, and she could find out by just going out. Wen Yujin told her in detail.

Meng Yuxi sighed, "Everyone has started to flee, but those people are not working together to find a way to survive, and are still playing tricks!"

Wen Yujin snorted coldly, "Even if you are about to die, there will always be people who want to plan a good grave. People's hearts are hard to predict! Just take good care of yourself, I'll take care of the rest!"

Meng Yuxi hummed and said nothing more.

The next day, Wen Yujin was not summoned. After arranging his official duties, he stayed at home and cooked delicious food with Meng Yuxi. He also invited the father and son of the third branch to have tea and chat together.

Aunt Meng, Mrs. Hua, has been worried about her mother's family these days. Uncle Meng used his connections to find out more and learned that the Hua clan was stranded by the Heihe River.

She was so worried that her mother's family would be abandoned that her mouth was covered with blisters.

From morning to dusk, all kinds of aromas wafted from the kitchen. She waited and waited, but no food was delivered from the Wen family.
