Chapter 55: If I Lose Any More, I’ll Have a Perfect Body
Compared to the well-organized first branch of the Lu family, the second and third branches of the Lu family are in a state of chaos.
Because they blamed Jiang Caiwei, they were assigned to the Thunder Demon Lord's subordinates. Along the way, people from the second and third rooms were looking for trouble with Jiang Caiwei.
When they arrived at Kenjingzhuang, the two families were so afraid that the other party would take advantage of them that they competed with each other in everything and wanted the other party to pay first.
In addition, both families came from wealthy families and had no idea how to cook or clean the house. They worked until late at night, but the house was still a mess. In the end, the two families went to bed hungry with full of resentment.

Before dawn, Jiang Tangtang got up in the dark and tiptoed out of the room.
Lu Shiyan was sitting on the ox cart at the door, covered with an old cotton coat. When he heard the sound, he suddenly opened his eyes.
When their eyes met, Jiang Tangtang wanted to hold her forehead with her hand.
She had tried her best to be gentle, but she still managed to wake him up. She would meet Manager Xia and then go and finalize the house repairs.
She was really fed up with this kind of life without independent space.
Jiang Tangtang was furious, but she put on an awkward yet polite smile, "Sorry for waking you."
"I was going to get up too."
Lu Shiyan lowered his voice, sounding like a whisper. Jiang Tangtang's heartbeat inexplicably quickened. She slightly distanced herself from him and said, "Then please do as you please. I'll go to the bathroom first and take a walk to see if there are any wild vegetables. If there are, I'll pick some and bring them back for breakfast."
After saying that, he picked up the bucket and walked quickly towards the stream.
Jiang Tangtang waited for a long time, and only after making sure that Lu Shiyan did not follow her did she find a hidden bush and enter the space.
Ever since the last attack in the valley, Lu Shiyan has been watching them even more closely. She hasn't found a chance to sneak into the villa to take a shower in a long time.
I originally thought that I could take a shower after settling down, but I didn’t expect that there were only two small huts and there was no way to take a shower. Jiang Tangtang could only find a way to go into the space to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Jiang Tangtang felt refreshed.
She dried her hair and walked to the scale as usual to weigh herself. She found that she had lost more than ten pounds and now weighed only 128 pounds. Her mood suddenly became better.
She is now 1.65 meters tall and weighs 128 kilograms, which doesn't seem very fat.
If she loses a little more weight, she will have a perfect figure.
What makes her most satisfied is that she, who used to weigh almost 300 pounds, does not have any stretch marks at all after losing weight, and her skin is very delicate and fine.
She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction. After applying some skin care products she had bought before on her face, she picked some cucumbers and tomatoes in the yard, dug a few bunches of strawberries in the strawberry garden, and then left the space.
Jiang Tangtang estimated the time and thought that Lu Shiyan would get anxious if she didn't go back, so she jogged all the way back.
Sure enough, as soon as they returned to the courtyard, Lu Shiyan asked, "Why did you take so long?"
"Look, what did I find?" Jiang Tangtang showed him the contents of the bucket as if offering a treasure. "I dug up the seedlings of this wild fruit. Let's find a place to plant them. From now on, the children will have delicious wild fruits every day."
Lu Shiyan was distracted for once and didn't pay any attention to what she was saying.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that her face was bright white, and seemed to be much whiter than yesterday.
She also has a faint fragrance on her body.
Her hair also looked fresh, unlike the women who were exiled with her, who had a strange smell and hair so greasy that it could be scraped off and used for cooking.
"Where do you think we should plant it?" Jiang Tangtang's heart beat faster as he stared at her without blinking.
Is he doubting himself?
Lu Shiyan finally came back to his senses, "What did you say?"
"I said, you are talking about these wild fruit seedlings. Where do you think we should plant them?" Jiang Tangtang.
"Are you sure this is edible?" Lu Shiyan frowned as he looked at the strawberry in her hand. He had never seen such a fruit before.
"It's edible and very sweet. I just tasted it." Jiang Tangtang said, taking a strawberry and stuffing it into his mouth.
Lu Shiyan only felt a faint milky fragrance passing through his nose, and as he applied force with his teeth, his lips and teeth were suddenly surrounded by soft and juicy fruit flesh.
The sweet and juicy strawberries instantly amazed Lu Shiyan, who never paid much attention to her appetite, and also made her cautious about the seedlings.
"Did you really find this in the wild?"
"If it wasn't found in the wild, how else could it have come from?" Jiang Tangtang asked, "Could it be possible that I conjured it?"
Lu Shiyan also felt that he had asked a silly question. He thought about it carefully and said, "Just plant it at the door. Take good care of it. It looks like there are quite a few fruits hanging on it. When the fruits are ripe, we can eat them again."
Jiang Tangtang nodded in agreement, then asked, "But aren't we going to renovate the house and move? Do we have to dig it out and then move it? If we do that, won't the wild fruit die?"
The reason she said this was because she found that the climate here was quite different from that of modern Hainan.
The winter here is still a bit cold. Last night she slept with several children and covered herself with a thick quilt.
The temperature difference between day and night is large, so if you plant them outside, the strawberries will be frozen to death.
Lu Shiyan thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense. The wooden boards sent by the Xia family yesterday have not been used up yet. How about I use the wooden boards to make a small flowerpot and plant the wild fruit in it."
Jiang Tangtang nodded and said, "That's a good idea! Go ahead and do it. I'll go make breakfast."
The gray sky gradually brightened.
Everyone in the family also woke up from their sleep.
He Qiuniang was very worried when she saw that the master of the house had woken up earlier than them and had started working long ago. She kept looking at Jiang Tangtang's expression.
Jiang Tangtang saw her worry and comforted her, "I went to bed early last night, so I woke up early and went out for a walk. You didn't get up late."
After hearing Jiang Tangtang's words, He Qiuniang felt a little relieved, but she still felt bad.
Although their whole family was sold to Jiang Tangtang and became servants of the Lu family, Jiang Tangtang was kind and the people of the Lu family were easy to get along with and treated them well.
And although they were servants, they ate better than before at home, and her children were visibly getting better.
So when I worked, I worked even harder.
Although they had a vegetarian meal in the morning, the tomatoes and cucumbers were taken out by Jiang Tangtang from the space. They tasted very good and everyone was reluctant to eat more.
After a simple breakfast, Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shiyan took Su, Lu Zhixi and several servants to find Manager Xia to get tools to open up the wasteland.
Old Madam Lu and the disabled Lu Shili stayed at home to look after the children and guard the luggage.
Not long after Lu Shiyan and Jiang Tangtang left with their men, two bearded men sneaked up to the thatched house.
