Chapter 101: Should We Live in Town?
What kind of experience is it to have a wife with innate divine strength?
Gu Yu was now caught in the sweet and sour reality of this problem. When he watched Mengyao Gu easily twist twenty catties of sugarcane into a twist and then move the sugarcane juice in the clay pot to him, his face was still filled with confusion.
Looking at the sugarcane that had been squeezed dry with not a drop of juice left, Gu Yu suddenly realized that he would definitely not be able to defeat his wife in the future…
Although his little wife now still had a cute, loli-like appearance.
But in the future, she had the potential to become a human-shaped ferocious beast!
At the same time, Gu Yu couldn’t help but feel fortunate that he had transmigrated here now. If he had transmigrated when everyone was already an adult, without any emotional foundation, his life would probably be very difficult.
At that time, if Mengyao Gu was displeased about anything and hit him, he would be seriously injured and vomit blood!!!
“Yu, it’s all done.”
“Uh… okay, thank you, Mengyao.”
“It’s okay. If there’s ever anything like this in the future, be sure to call me! So you don’t have to worry alone. We’re husband and wife, so we should share the responsibility together!”
As Mengyao Gu spoke, she gave a shy smile. Seeing Gu Yu’s dazed expression, she felt even more shy.
She didn’t know if Yu would be scared by her great strength.
After all, innate divine strength was not something encountered easily, but! She was not a tigress, so she definitely wouldn’t lay a hand on her husband!
Moreover, Yu was so good, she wouldn’t bear to.
While Mengyao Gu was struggling with her thoughts, Gu Yu was only startled, not scared by Mengyao Gu’s unusual nature.
On the contrary, if Gu Yu were to reveal his transmigration and space, then it would be others who would be scared.
Even in his current daze, he was worried… if he would be domestically abused by Mengyao Gu in the future.
After reacting, Gu Yu didn’t stand there foolishly anymore. Instead, he reached out and picked up the clay pot. He also noticed that there were almost no residues mixed inside, it was very clean, and didn’t even need a second screening.
He marveled at his wife’s strength once more, then took the clay pot to the kitchen and, with Mengyao Gu’s help, began to start a fire and simmer the sugarcane juice.
The process of extracting juice from sugarcane was originally very troublesome, but after Mengyao Gu twisted the sugarcane with her bare hands, it became very simple and quick.
When the sugarcane juice in the pot was simmered to a thick consistency, Gu Yu took out the funnel-shaped clay basin he had bought from town. He sealed the bottom opening with straw, and then poured the syrup made from the sugarcane juice into the clay basin in one go.
Next, they would have to wait for two or three more days before they could proceed to the next step.
It took a long time to simmer the sugarcane juice, and the afternoon was almost over in the blink of an eye. Because he was very curious how the red sugarcane candy turned white, Gu Qingheng didn’t go anywhere else. Instead, he sat by the side, watching with curiosity.
However, after hearing that it would take two more days before they could proceed, Gu Qingheng put away his curiosity, then said goodbye to Mengyao Gu and ran towards the village, preparing to get the latest gossip.
It was already very rare for Gu Qingheng to stay at home for an entire afternoon.
As for studying and reviewing, Gu Qingheng only had to flip through the books at home once, and he already remembered them very clearly. Pretending to study diligently was something even he couldn’t stand.
Where was the excitement of listening to others gossip compared to studying! Not to mention anything else, Auntie Wang Er said she would mentor him and train him to be one of the foremost successors in Yang Family Village.
After Gu Qingheng slipped out like a wild monkey, Mengyao Gu and Gu Yu, having been busy all afternoon, had no mood to do anything else. They only wanted to lie down in their room for a while and recover their strength.
However, this idea did not come to fruition.
Because Yan Min came again.
“Mengyao girl, you don’t need to worry anymore! When I returned to town at noon, I heard people say that Er Tou Wang was killed by a bear. I was worried for nothing, and even made you anxious.”
“Uncle Yan, please don’t say that. It’s already very touching that you remembered us at a critical moment.”
“Sigh! Let’s not talk about these upsetting things. The pears your husband gave me today had a very good effect! My wife just ate one, and her complexion improved a lot.”
Yan Min came this time not because something else had happened, but just to tell the Gu family not to worry about Er Tou Wang anymore.
Because Er Tou Wang was already dead, there would definitely be no more trouble in the future, unless he resurrected from the dead…
Moreover, when he left today, the few pears Gu Yu gave him had an outrageously good effect!
After returning home, Yan Min saw that his wife Chen Chunhua had a pale complexion, which made him very distressed.
Remembering what Gu Yu had said about eating pears making sick people feel better, Yan Min couldn’t sit still anymore. He directly washed the pears, cut them into slices, and slowly fed them to his wife.
As soon as Chen Chunhua ate a bite of the pear, her whole spirit seemed to improve a lot. As she ate more pears, her complexion was no longer as pale as before.
This made Yan Min overjoyed, feeling that heaven had finally opened its eyes!
Although his wife was a bit shrewish, she was truly good to him. So, after she contracted a strange illness, Yan Min never abandoned her. When he didn’t have the money to see a doctor, he even directly became a bandit.
However, after one doctor after another shook their heads in helplessness, Yan Min was only met with increasing disappointment.
Fortunately, he finally saw a glimmer of hope, which made Yan Min extremely excited. After watching his wife fall asleep with a rosy complexion, he directly came to the Gu family to express his gratitude.
As for Gu Yu, the planner of everything, he didn’t expect the recovery spring water to be so effective. Previously, it couldn’t even recover his wounds…
In fact, it was also because Gu Yu was too greedy. Being able to stop the bleeding of his wound, the effect of the recovery spring water was already very good.
As for the spring water that could immediately heal wounds, Gu Yu could probably only see it in novels.
The recovery fountain would not take the blame for this!
“This is really great! When Sister Chunhua gets better, I’ll go over and talk to her, so as not to be bored.”
“That would be great, but your family is in need of people right now. No rush! Your husband is a good one. He’s only been in the Gu family for a few years, and he’s even built a new house.”
Hearing Mengyao Gu’s words, Yan Min felt even more touched.
His wife being okay was simply a gift from heaven!
However, when Yan Min left the Gu family at noon, he was worried that Er Tou Wang might bring people over later. If he wasn’t at the Gu family, what could the three children do alone?
So, he went to the village chief Yang Hong’s house.
After entrusting the village chief to help keep an eye on them, the news Yan Min received from the village chief also shocked him greatly.
Originally, Yan Min thought that the meals Mengyao Gu prepared at noon were because she doted on her little husband too much. After all, even now they lived in a thatched hut, and their clothes were all patched. Such luxurious meals could be considered wasteful.
However, the village chief said that the Gu family had already started building a new house, and Gu Yu had taken charge of the entire construction. The young man was clever and had a very promising future.
The village chief had received gifts from Gu Yu before, so naturally, he had to speak well of him in front of outsiders. Although he also felt that Gu Yu was too bad at managing a household, spending money lavishly.
However, Yan Min didn’t know any of this. He only heard from the village chief that Gu Yu was not a pretty boy on the surface, which made his impression of him improve a little.
As long as Gu Yu was good to the Mengyao Gu siblings, that would be enough!
Of course, after hearing that Gu Yu was so capable, Yan Min also put aside his worries about Gu Yu’s identity as a live-in son-in-law. As long as the young couple lived their lives well, their days would surely become prosperous.
“Yu has been very tired lately. I’m worried he’ll be exhausted. These troublesome matters are one after another, making us all unable to take care of ourselves.”
“Actually, you can consider going to town… If you had come a few days earlier, I would definitely have advised you to do so, but now that the new house has been built, it’s not appropriate to go to town.”
“It’s okay! It’s quite good for us to stay here. It’s just the farming off-season now. When we get busy later, there probably won’t be so much trouble.”
As Mengyao Gu and Yan Min were talking, Gu Yu quickly interjected.
He had considered whether to go to town to live before. At that time, he thought he couldn’t lose the mountain as a treasure trove and lose a way to make money… However, now, Gu Yu didn’t want to expose his secrets.
Not only his space, but also Mengyao Gu’s innate divine strength.
Before he had witnessed it, Gu Yu had only imagined it and didn’t think it was a big deal. After all, it was just being a little stronger.
However, after personally witnessing Mengyao Gu twist sugarcane with her bare hands, Gu Yu realized that he had been too naive.
With Mengyao Gu’s divine strength, if it fell into the hands of someone with ill intentions, the outcome would definitely not be good!
Generally speaking, people with extraordinary talents either become pawns in others’ hands or directly turn the tables and become the masters.
Only by becoming strong can one avoid being bullied.
With this consideration, Gu Yu decided that he must conceal Mengyao Gu’s divine strength and also give Mengyao Gu the martial arts manuals produced from the space, and urge her to train every day.
And if they went to town, with so many people and prying eyes, exposure would be a matter of time.
But in the village, especially in their secluded location at the foot of the mountain, even during the day, few people would appear. Moreover, with the high perimeter wall as cover, no one would discover Mengyao Gu’s uniqueness.
Although Gu Yu felt that Mengyao Gu’s innate divine strength could not be concealed for a lifetime, a period of time as a buffer would be excellent!
At least during this period, he could use the help of the space to cultivate Mengyao Gu to be even stronger.
Gu Yu didn’t believe it! With him and the space, how could Mengyao Gu possibly get into trouble!
Others saw Mengyao Gu as a piece of fat meat, thinking that she was incapable of resisting and could only be driven by them. But in reality, it was the opposite.
In that case, it would probably be others looking up to Mengyao Gu!
And he, as Mengyao Gu’s dear husband, felt honored!
