Happiness System

The sand potatoes were indeed very sweet. Meng Yuxi was in a good mood while eating them. Before leaving, she also planted a lot of fruits and vegetables in various places.

The Wen family guards found some, but there was nothing they could do as they had limited sacks and could not carry them back!

So a group of people rode back quickly.

The desolate sandy land also has output? !

After the Night Owl family found out, they hurriedly organized people to leave the city.

Wen Cheng and the others were also not satisfied, so after thinking it over, they changed horses, knocked on the door of the Meng family who were a few houses away, and took them with them.

Wen Yujin hesitated for a moment, but still picked a few melons and sent them to his boss.

In the entire Sand City, those who went to bed early slept soundly and peacefully, while those who went to bed late stayed awake all night.

"lady!"

Seeing Meng Yuxi, the shirtless guards immediately scattered and fled, and the guards in the pit immediately squatted down and dug the soil...

Meng Yuxi: “???”

Isn't it just a look at the chest muscles? What's the big deal? It's like guarding against perverts!

snort!

Wen Qing ran away, put on his clothes, and hurried back, "Madam, why are you here? Is it possible that Xiaoxia and Xiaoqiu fell asleep and no one is fanning you? Why don't you go and wake them up?"

Meng Yuxi shook her head. "I'm not sleepy right now. I came to see if you guys have found any water in this pit."

"We've dug down more than ten meters. There are a lot of rocks underneath, and it took some effort to chisel them open. It will probably take more than an hour to dig." Wen Qing wiped the sweat off his forehead, thinking to himself that it was a close call.

After digging for so long without seeing any wet soil, they were actually certain that there was no water at that location.

"Everyone has worked hard. Let's ask the kitchen to make some midnight snacks for everyone. And there are two melons we just harvested. Let's share them!"

Meng Yuxi looked around again and found that everyone seemed quite reserved when she was here, so she smiled and left.

"Thank you ma'am!"

As soon as she left, everyone felt a lot more at ease. They happily gathered the people in the kitchen to make a midnight snack, and pulled up the brothers who were still digging in the soil downstairs to eat melons. They were happier than during the Chinese New Year!

In order to prevent sudden fright, Wen Qing risked being beaten and called Xiao Xia and Xiao Qiu, asking them to stay with the mistress at all times.

As for their target of defense, Meng Yuxi, she returned to the backyard, got some ice saltpeter for cooling down, and went straight into the tent to organize the supplies in the space.

Meng Yuxi didn't know when she fell asleep, but she missed the surprising moment of digging out water in the front yard.

But it was all expected and there is no regret.

After a night, the scorching sun rises again, some are happy and some are sad.

The underground water source that Cui Jiaojiao found was controlled by the royal family. The water output there was even less than that of an ordinary faucet, and it took three to five minutes to fill a bucket of water.

Let’s put it this way, that water can’t even be supplied to the royal family, let alone anyone else!

The water source on the Wen family's side was not much better than that over there, so no one spoke out.

Meng Yuxi noticed that her husband had returned at night, but when she got up in the morning, there was still no one around.

Hearing the noisy sounds outside, she shook her head. These men really don't know how to get tired. They are always full of energy. Their energy is really admirable!

"Madam, are you awake?"

After hearing the response, Xiaoqiu and Xiaoxia went into the tent and said with a smile, "Madam, we have dug out water! Water came out of the pit in the front yard last night!

After two hours of settling, the water became very clear, and we took it out, boiled it, and filled all our containers.”

“That’s not all, we washed all the dirty and smelly clothes!

Wen Qing and the others have gone out to find new containers, saying they need to prepare more water for the rest of the journey!"

The two of them chattered for a while, but they didn't stop helping the mistress to dress and wash.

After Meng Yuxi had breakfast, they felt disappointed. "Madam, Manager Wen Cheng looked at the route map and said that the next road will not go into the city. Maybe they will only stop in small villages and towns to look for water sources..."

"We will reach Mocheng in half a month. Mocheng is already the border. There are 200,000 troops there... After we meet up, we will leave the country..."

Meng Yuxi had no sense of belonging to Daqi, but life became more difficult once she left Daqi, which was definitely not good news.

She tapped the foreheads of the two maids and said, "The royal family members don't worry, so why are you worried?"

But they should be worried. When they arrived at Mocheng, although the general loosened the army and only 60,000 of the 200,000 soldiers left, the 60,000 soldiers were running out of food. The court could not afford to feed them, so it started to collect "protection fees".

It's really disgusting!

Meng Yuxi often wondered whether they should just leave the team.

But that's not realistic. Not to mention that they don't know the route, the many difficulties that lie ahead are beyond the ability of their small team to overcome.

This shabby escape road is so dilapidated that even a dragon would have to stay put!

Walking to the front yard with the curtain, Wen Yujin and the Meng family were in front of the deep water pit that they had dug yesterday.

Meng Yihui and Meng Shibai saw embarrassment on her face.

Wen Yujin turned his head and smiled at her, "Why did you come out? Be careful of getting too hot."

Meng Yuxi walked over and called out to Brother Jin, then Uncle and Big Brother, and then she smiled and said, "There is an underground river under Sand City, and there must be more than just these two places where water can come out. I thought I'd go out and see if I can find one, so that we don't have to move again in two days."

"Your husband will go with you. Do you want me to lead the horse?" Wen Yujin held her hand.

Meng Yuxi shook her head, "They are our great heroes, let them rest!"

Wen Yujin nodded, said hello to the Meng family, and took her people to accompany her out.

Seeing the couple walking away, Meng Yihui sighed, "Xier has become estranged from her family!"

The corner of Meng Shibai's mouth twitched, "No wonder Xier!"

If someone takes money but doesn't do the job for him, he doesn't mind and pays extra money to do it himself, but the other party still tries to take his things away...

Let’s see if he can use the ten-meter-long sword to chop the man to death!

He said that his family really hasn't taken enough advantage of him!

His children were the ones who "snatched" the food, and he had no place to complain about this injustice!

Alas, he was badly hurt by his cousin!

It's also his fault for being negligent!

Meng Yuxi, Wen Yujin and their group strolled outside for over an hour. Before she was dried into jerky, she casually checked off five locations.

In fact, there are only three water outlets among the five locations, and one of them is a spring mouth, which is very close to the underground river. It depends on whether they will continue digging after the water comes out.

Of course, she wouldn't say these things out loud, not even a hint.

If she didn't want her temporary residence to become a vegetable market, she wouldn't bother with it.

Wen Yujin sent his wife back to her residence before going out again. Naturally, he could not let his own people get involved in digging a deep well, and the credit could not be monopolized by the Wen family.

"Madam, I have dried some water. Would you like to take a bath?"

Normally, it's almost noon now, Xiao Xia wouldn't be so ignorant, but she hasn't taken a bath in the high temperature for nearly half a month, so those who understand will understand...

"Is there a bathtub? Take a bath while there is water. You never know when the water will be gone!"

Meng Yuxi smelled herself and found that luckily, it might be because of the supernatural power that protected her body, so she was not pickled. However, she also felt a thick layer of dirt on her body.

If this person accidentally enters the Northeast Bathhouse, he will probably become a source of happiness for his aunt!

"Madam, when Wen Lan led people out to look for buckets, they found a shop selling wooden furniture. Inside, they found a large bucket that could be used as a water tank, and also a bathtub.

One was left for the lady to bathe, and the remaining two were turned into buckets.”

After Xiaoqiu replied, she immediately went downstairs to prepare some water.

Meng Yuxi was quite satisfied. Although she didn't mind using other people's old buckets, who wouldn't like new ones!

Xiaoqiu prepared the water, and before Meng Yuxi entered the tub to take a bath, she washed her hair first, and then scrubbed her whole body. When she rinsed the water, the black and gray water was simply unbearable to look at...

It seems that she thinks she is not too dirty, but that is just her idea...

After taking a shower, Meng Yuxi felt relaxed all over!

Don’t be fooled by the fact that the surface temperature is as high as 50 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the underground spring water is only a few degrees.

I don’t know which smart guy in the Wen family had the sudden idea to throw the watermelon and cantaloupe into the deep pit, but Meng Yuxi ate the chilled fruits as soon as she came out of the bath.

Eating melons and studying medicine at the same time, those days are simply wonderful!

"Madam, I'm afraid that the concubines in the palace can't compare to your life."

As soon as Wen Yujin entered the room, he saw his wife and father-in-law sitting leisurely on the recliners reading books, with an ice bucket and a melon plate beside them. His two brothers-in-law were already asleep on the couch.

Meng Yuxi smiled, "Brother Jin is back, come and try these chilled fruits and see if they taste better."

She thought her husband was forced to end his vacation early again!

When Xiaoqiu and Xiaoxia saw their master coming back, they moved another recliner over with great interest.

Meng Yuxi stood up and gave up her seat, and she moved to the chair that had just been moved next to her.

Wen Yujin didn't say anything polite. He washed his hands and sat down in his wife's original seat, eating fruits and chatting in a low voice with his father-in-law.

While chatting, Wen Yujin suddenly turned to his wife and said, "Xier, three of the five wells you selected have already produced water."

"That's quite big. Small families and ordinary people should be able to get some water." Meng Yuxi turned her head and glanced at the hourglass. It turned out that five hours had passed.

The official equipment and well diggers are all professionals, so it is normal to get water in five hours!

Wen Yujin shook his head, thinking his wife was a little naive, "Every family and the army are also short of water."

Meng Yuxi was stunned. It turned out that she had underestimated the class difference at this moment.

Wen Yujin reached out and touched her head, "Your Majesty has decided to stay one more day." Not only because of the water, but also because of the fruits and vegetables harvested yesterday.

Meng Yuxi sneered, "Stay one more day? The people won't get any water and will have to consume one more day's worth of food. I'm afraid it will be even harder for them to endure, right?"

Wen Yujin was helpless, "This is not something we should be involved in."

If you are rich, help the world; if you are poor, take care of yourself!

For those who are neither good nor bad, it is naturally important to protect themselves.

After chatting for a while, although his father-in-law was around, Wen Yujin still reminded him: "The Meng family has lent a lot of food to the in-laws, so you should pay attention here."
