Chapter 399 The Cheap Father-in-law is Unconvinced

The space spirit was confused by the question, "What should I do?"

Su Nuan pointed at the large pit and said, "There's no sedimentation here, and there are cracks underneath. If it's used as a reservoir, it will definitely leak."

"Besides, transporting water from the river would take a long time. After all, there isn't enough space to store water in the space spirit, and it's impossible to use the water directly from the space."

If the water in the space is used, animals from all directions will come and will probably drink it up in one day.

The Space Spirit clapped his hands and said, "Why don't we run a water pipe from the power source to bring the water up there? That way we don't have to worry about the water running dry."

Su Nuan, “…” She suddenly felt that everything she had just done was in vain.

Hailan came to the edge of the pit and said, "Why not just drill a hole and pump out the water?"

Su Nuan held his forehead with his hand, he almost did something in vain again.

The space spirit said: "You said light, then you punch the hole!"

I don’t know why, but Hai Lan can use the things in the space after waking up, and can also collect items freely when she comes out.

He raised his hand and threw a ball down, "It will be fine tomorrow."

After saying that, he threw the slime out again and said, "Go and coat the wall over there with a layer of glazing."

Su Nuan watched the blue slime jump to the edge of the wall and then split into countless pieces in an instant.

"Slime... has temperature? It looks cold."

Hailan replied: "It has temperature. It's quite magical. Maybe it's the last one in the world."

Su Nuan exclaimed, "The world is so magical."

The space spirit asked: "What should we do next?"

Su Nuan didn’t know what to do. It seemed that nothing needed her for the time being.

The city construction is proceeding in an orderly manner, and chaos in the border town of Beixue Country is a matter of time.

He said helplessly: "It's getting late, let's go back first."

Su Nuan flew back to the city. The people in the city had already finished their meal, and some elderly women were sitting together chatting.

The space spirit flew over and listened to the gossip with great interest.

Su Nuan didn’t know how far the space spirit could get away from her, so she could only stay and listen to gossip with the space spirit.

The people who were talking were all from Xiangyang Village. They were in their forties or fifties, grandmothers.

A slightly plump old woman said, "My third son insisted on marrying a girl from the Liu family. If I didn't agree, he said he wanted to divide the family. Look at these young people, they are so unfilial."

The thin, high-cheekboned woman beside her said, "He's so poor, it's good enough that the Liu family girl is willing to marry him. When life gets better in the future, won't she have to write a letter of engagement with three letters and six ceremonies?"

The fat woman sighed, "Yes, when will this poverty end?"

The woman with high cheekbones added, "My granddaughter-in-law is so annoying. She keeps complaining about being tired taking care of a child at home. How can she be tired of just one child?"

"Back then, I could take care of four or five children without complaining of being tired. But now, I'm so spoiled every day."

The fat woman laughed and said, "My daughter is married well. The mother-in-law takes care of the baby, and the meat in the son-in-law's bowl is given to my daughter to eat."

Suddenly the two women stopped, looked at each other, embarrassment in their eyes, then they snorted and went their separate ways.

Su Nuan looked confused, and the space spirit was already rolling on the ground laughing.

Seeing Su Nuan's bewildered expression, the spatial spirit smiled and explained, "The fat woman's daughter is the daughter-in-law of the woman with high cheekbones. They are in-laws."

Su Nuan finally understood what was funny. It seemed that the old woman with high cheekbones was using her grandson's wife to allude to her daughter-in-law, but ended up being criticized by the fat old woman.

She laughed for a while but couldn't laugh anymore. The current people's livelihood issues are still very serious. If their happiness is not enough, their loyalty cannot be increased.

Seeing Su Nuan leave, the spatial spirit asked, "Why aren't you listening? The gossip these people are telling is quite interesting."

Su Nuan responded in her heart, "I don't want to listen anymore. If you can continue to listen, then go ahead. I'm going back first."

The space spirit said, "Okay, I can move freely within the city, don't worry about me."

Su Nuan was not worried about her. When she returned to her residence, she saw Xue in the yard.

She stepped forward and asked, "Mom, have you eaten yet?"

Mrs. Xue nodded, "I've eaten. Where have you been? I left some food for you."

Su Nuan replied: "Go behind the cliff and look for a place to build a manor."

Xue didn't ask any further questions, but said, "Ye Suifeng brought back some more small animals. Should he keep them or send them back?"

Su Nuan asked, "Wild boar?"

Xue shook her head and said, "You go and take a look. I've closed the woodshed."

Su Nuan saw that Xue was in good spirits. It seemed that the return of her adoptive father-in-law did not bring much pressure to Xue.

She followed Xue to the woodshed, opened the outer door and found a fence door inside.

"When was a gate installed?"

Xue didn't say anything, but pointed inside and motioned Su Nuan to look.

Su Nuan looked inside and was surprised to see the cheap father-in-law and his concubine's family all here. They were surrounded by little leopards, little tigers, wolf cubs, and bear cubs...

Those people huddled in the corner, their eyes flashing with hatred and helplessness, and it seemed they still refused to accept the result.

The corners of Su Nuan's mouth twitched. No wonder Xue Shi was not unhappy. These people were very good toys and could relieve boredom.

Perhaps it was because Su Nuan smelled like river water, the little animals rushed to the door and stared at Su Nuan.

Xue smiled and said, "You are still more attractive."

Su Nuan untied the backpack, took out some dried meat and scattered it in the pack. The little animals ate while fighting for a hundred years.

Xue shouted, "No fighting allowed. If you want to sharpen your claws, go and sharpen them on those people."

The people inside were in tears but could not say a word. Su Nuan was curious, "Why aren't they talking?"

Xue sneered, "It was too noisy, so I gave them some medicine, which worked quite well."

Su Nuan looked at Xue in astonishment.

Xue smiled slightly, "Don't worry, mother won't do anything to you. Do you still have that medicine?"

Su Nuan nodded quickly, "Yes... yes..."

Xue had never seen her like this before. In his impression, she had always been weak and gentle.

Su Nuan laughed dryly and said, "Mom, have fun, I'll go eat."

Xue nodded, "It's hot in the pot, go and eat."

Su Nuan nodded and turned to go to the kitchen. There were big and small pots in the kitchen. The small pot was covered with a lid. She walked over and lifted it up.

There were two eggs, a bun, and a bowl of braised chicken in the pot, all meat.

Perhaps the space spirit smelled something and appeared in an instant. Su Nuan was startled, "Why did you come back so quickly?"

The Space Spirit said, "I entered the Space Spirit and came out right next to you. Don't you know?"

Su Nuan, "I don't know. If I enter the space, can I also appear beside you?"

The space spirit shook his head, "I don't know about this, let's find a chance to try it, I want to eat meat."

Su Nuan poked the meat with chopsticks and handed it over. "Here, I don't understand, how can you eat meat when you are a plant?"

The space spirit glanced sideways, "Plants that eat meat grow better."

Su Nuan didn't say anything and quickly finished her meal.

Just as she finished washing the dishes, she heard the sound of a gong outside. The sound was a bit urgent, and it seemed that something big had happened.
