Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife



Scarlet smiled at the two women and one child as they came out of the house. They were putting sundresses, the younger one chose the blue dress while the older one picked a brown dress with white small white circles around the arms. The little boy had changed too, he was wearing black shorts and a red shirt. 

She noticed that they did not have their clothes on them and she wondered if they left them in the room or had storage bracelets. 

"How are you feeling now?" she asked when they approached her. 

"Much better governess." the older woman replied to Scarlet. "Thank you so much for the change of clothes, we appreciate this greatly, your grace towards us has been astonishing." 

She was so polite and well spoken like a woman that was raised in a noble house with teachers that taught her decorum. 

This was the way all nobles spoke and behaved, it was expected of them in the capital. The Su siblings on the other hand had less than desired decorum despite being noble. They were direct with their words and behaved like ordinary people.

"Not governess please call me governor Scarlet. I think the title of governess will confine me to a specific subset that I do not desire to fall in."  It reminded her too much of a teacher or the wife of a governor. She did not want people to see her as less than Esong or they would disrespect her. 

Grace Carlzon smiled softly and responded, "I understand." 

Scarlet tugged on her mother's arm and pushed her forward, "This is my mother Mega Su." 

Mega and the Carlzon women smile, bowed and introduced themselves to each other. The daughter Precious even curtsied like a well trained young unmarried maiden. 

"Your daughter is very beautiful." Mega told Grace. 

As Grace appreciated the praise, Precious blushed and Scarlet could not help but think that with her pale skin, ginger hair and blushes the girl really was a fair maiden. 

"I am sure that young Eden here must be very hungry the other children are finishing up with lunch but it's not too late for him to join them. If you are going to live with us he should meet the others. If you are comfortable with it of course." She told Grace. 

"I told you they had food." Precious whispered to her mother but Scarlet heard it anyway and she smiled. 

"Mother, please take them and introduce them around. As they are our first immigrants I want them to see how we live so that they can decide if they will be able to cope. Everyone here works, they may come from a noble house but I expect them to contribute to our society. Meanwhile I have to make sure that these workers don't cut the wrong parts of the sugarcanes. I noticed that more fields had been opened up that I anticipated. I think we can start planting the sugarcanes today if possible."

Mega smiled happily, more plants meant more food and more money.

Scarlet sat down on rock and all the women eagerly looked her way and tried hard to impress her with their knife skills.

"Governor I am cutting them right, look here."

"No governor I am cutting them better, see the one I am cutting is so good looking."

As she looked over Scarlet wondered what exactly that one meant by good looking, sugarcanes were long green sticks. There was no beauty to them like flowers. But she smiled encouragingly at the women and complimented each of them.

"Governor what kind of food is this green stick?" someone finally had the guts to ask. 

She took a knife from he storage and showed the women how a sugarcane could be peeled. Then she gave one woman a taste. 

"Oh, it's sweet." the woman exclaimed. 

She peeled some more and distributed little pieces to the other women around the room.

"Each of you can take one home to your families. Do not throw the peels away, collect them and bring them to the garbage collection dump. I have other uses for them." 

  The women cheered happily. All along they thought the green sticks were useless and it turns out they were wrong, extremely wrong. 

The women left for lunch and when they returned, they would finish up the rest of the job. 

Scarlet went inside the house to feed crystal water to the puppies and cats which she had bought for her siblings. She also pinched and fed them some of the left over meat balls from Severus's share which she did not give him. 

She left them in the care of Gregor who had been having lunch with the other children before returning home for an afternoon nap. 

From there she went with Severus to check on the cattle. They had been settled in an open but isolated area which was fenced off to ensure that they did not leap away and escape. The top of the shelter had been covered with iron sheets forged from the melted old mechas in the factory.

She had decided not to close the factory when she realized that whatever was melted could be hardened and turned into something else. Why look for iron and other minerals when these old mechas that were made from special materials could do the job for now?

The animals were placed in different square shaped sections to avoid over crowding and the pregnant females were separated from the bulls. The cows which could be milked were also separated from others and housed alone with their calves. She had asked for this to be done to ease the milking process since it had to be done manually.

So far, none of the cows had been milked yet because she wanted them to get used to associating and living with humans. If she randomly sent in someone and they were kicked in the head how dangerous would that situation be? 

The workers in this department saw her and they stood up respectively. 

"Stay where you are she told them."  She went around checking on the status of the animals and adding crystal water to the small cemented water ditches that had been dug for the animals to drink water with ease. 

Immediately, the animals all came to drink water as if they had been dying of thirst all along. 

The manager of this department saw the situation and he looked at her with panic on in his eyes, he came hurrying over. "Governor, we are very responsible workers, we give them water, I don't know why they are behaving like this." he said. 

The larger bulls were pushing the smaller ones out of the way so that they could drink the water first. There was a lot of noise and grunts from the animals.  It looked as if the animals were on the brink of a revolt and preparing for a stampede.
