Qin Yuanjiu felt a little curious and coughed awkwardly, "Auntie, I'll go take a look in the back."
Mrs. Ke chuckled, "Go ahead, go ahead. You're such a young couple who just got your marriage certificate; you really don't want to part with them even for a moment."
Ke Meiyu searched around the vegetable garden in the backyard, selected a few inconspicuous, newly sprouted bean seedlings, poured water mixed with different doses of spiritual spring water into them, and made detailed records, preparing to see what the effect would be.
She was thinking of going to the back hill that night to find a brood of rabbits for her experiment.
Only after she understands the effects and corresponding dosage of the spiritual spring can she confidently apply it in reality.
Sensing someone approaching, Ke Meiyu quickly poured the last bowl of water over her head, stood up, and pretended to rub her lower back.
Qin Yuanjiu walked to the back of the house, whistled at people, and lazily said, "Auntie is cooking and waiting for your green beans. Where are the green beans?"
Ke Meiyu's eyes lit up when she saw him.
She quickly ran over with a smile, grabbed his clothes, and her two dark eyes were moist, like a lapdog wagging its tail to please someone.
Unfortunately, she was beautiful and charming, unaware of just how alluring she was.
It was as if she was inviting people to pick her...
Qin Yuanjiu tightened his jaw, took a step back rudely, and said coldly and harshly, "Ke Meiyu, do you have any sense of hygiene? Whatever you've touched, you rub it on my clothes!"
Ke Meiyu smiled guiltily, knowing that the old lady was the one who took care of the vegetable garden behind her house.
The old woman's method of applying excrement was rather unrestrained; she would often mix it, then casually pour it out with a broken ladle...
In other words, every leaf and every fruit in the vegetable garden is nourished by pure, natural water!
Seeing her expression, Qin Yuanjiu instantly understood what was going on. His face darkened further, and he gritted his teeth: "Don't you dare pull my clothes like that anymore!"
Ke Meiyu looked up at him, her eyes darting around, and unexpectedly stepped forward to grab his hand. She immediately let go and ran away, her clear, gloating voice like a wind chime, melodious yet ethereal.
Qin Yuanjiu lowered his eyelids, looked at his hands, and helplessly clenched them slowly.
Ke Meiyu quickly picked the green beans, and in no time she had picked half a basketful.
She even took a moment to open the Peace Value panel to check how much she had just earned.
"Hey, Xiao Wen, why did I only get fifty peace points after tugging at the villain's clothes? Wasn't it a hundred before?"
"Host, the peace value is not based on what you do, but on the fluctuations in the villain's mind. The first attempt will definitely yield more, but as the number of similar interactions increases, the fluctuations will weaken accordingly, so the peace value exchanged will decrease."
Ke Meiyu gritted her teeth, realizing how naive she had been to think that simply tugging at Qin Yuanjiu's clothes would allow her to reach the daily limit. "Wouldn't that mean that once we're like an old married couple, with a relationship as natural as drinking plain water, I won't be able to gain even a single point of peace points?"
"No, host. The system's calculations are quite reasonable, and there will be another calculation method later. In short, host, you must take the task seriously and not take any chances or be perfunctory. The system is constantly being improved and there won't be any major bugs!"
Ke Meiyu pouted. In the early stages, she would definitely need to accumulate more Peace Points to learn Medical Talismans. Once she had mastered them, she would be able to inscribe Medical Talismans and sell them in the system to exchange for Peace Points!
With peace points, what can't you buy?
Thinking of this, Ke Meiyu's eyes lit up again, and she suddenly unlocked a new way to access the system.
With a heavy heart, she took out the peace points she had just earned by tugging at her clothes and exchanged them for a pound of Moufu hazelnut chocolates. She peeled one open and popped it into her mouth.
Ke Meiyu was bubbling with happiness. Although chocolate was a rare commodity in this era, and the old lady had bought her a few pieces, the layered textures were still incomparable to those of later generations, not to mention the perfect combination of nuts and chocolate!
Once the food carrier was activated, Ke Meiyu's restless foodie heart couldn't be calmed down.
After delivering the green beans, Ke Meiyu looked around to make sure no one was watching, and then, in an extremely extravagant manner, spent twenty dollars to buy a cup of oolong cheese milk tea. With three-tenths sweetness, less ice, and extra cheese, the slightly cool and mellow taste made her hair stand on end!
She was moved to tears as she slowly savored the drink.
She used to love this milk tea so much that she wanted to have it every day, but unfortunately, the apocalypse came and she never got to taste it again.
For a moment, memories of the pre-apocalyptic world, along with this familiar smell, slowly and blurrily flashed by like a movie.
"What's wrong?" Qin Yuanjiu, who appeared out of nowhere, frowned slightly. When he saw her reddened eyes, his face instantly turned cold and stern: "In the end, the second branch of the family framed people, and now they're just being asked to leave the Ke family. They not only escaped without any pain, but they also received a hundred yuan in resettlement fees. It's really unfair to you."
Ke Meiyu paused for a moment, her mind racing. Was the villain trying to comfort her out of kindness?
She lowered her head slightly, shrugged pitifully, and choked out a sob: "I'm fine. We won't be living together anymore, so there won't be so many problems in the future. I'm actually quite relaxed. Besides, I slapped Ke Enshu twice before, so I've already vented my anger."
"That's right, I just feel like such a good family has been ruined because of me..."
After saying that, she let out a howl and rammed into the "mobile shopping machine".
However, Qin Yuanjiu raised an eyebrow and decisively stepped back with one foot, causing the person to awkwardly bump into thin air.
Ke Meiyu was furious. "Qin Yuanjiu, why are you hiding? I'm heartbroken, aren't you going to hold me in your arms and comfort me?"
Even a piece of meat would be nice, maybe she could even splurge on a slice of cream cake...
"What are you sad about? I think you're just bored out of your mind," Qin Yuanjiu sneered. "When your eyes dart around, you're always up to something. Showing weakness and trying to please doesn't suit you. Being straightforward is much more pleasant."
"Hmph, you just look down on me because I'm a country bumpkin," Ke Meiyu stepped forward and poked him with her index finger. "If you're so capable, then marry me. If you're so capable, then don't look down on me!"
"You married me but then you despise me, always finding fault with me. So, I'm a treasure at home, but I've become a weed in your eyes?"
Qin Yuanjiu couldn't dodge and was forced to retreat by her pokes, eventually almost touching the wall.
He looked around and saw that everyone was busy, so only the two of them were arguing.
Helplessly, he grasped those slender, white fingers, subtly rubbing them together, but said bluntly, "Stop it. I only have one wife. No matter how rough or clumsy she is, I have to put up with it. I chose her myself."
"Just like a dog doesn't mind a poor home and a son doesn't mind an ugly mother, I can't just replace my wife, can I?"
"Wouldn't that be considered indecent assault?"
Ke Meiyu's eyes widened, her anger flaring up. "Am I rough? Am I simple-minded? Am I poor? Am I ugly?"
Qin Yuanjiu's face darkened. "You're taking advantage of me?"
