Its cute, sleepy look is so adorable that it makes people laugh, as if its reluctant little appearance has become the most interesting scenery in the morning.

"You're making a fuss so early in the morning. I want to sleep a little longer. What's going on?"

Mengmeng rubbed her sleepy eyes. Her slightly complaining but still lovable expression made Ran He feel a little warm in his heart, but it could not hide the urgency of the task.

"I've planted so many fruit trees and vegetable seeds here. You need to separate the herbs and plant the rest of the land. Be quick and don't wait for me to tell you a second time."

Ran He's words revealed an unquestionable firmness. Although Meng Meng rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction, she knew deep down that as the spirit of this space, its duty was to serve its master.

Even though it felt a little embarrassed about this job, it had no choice but to obey.

Facing such a master, Mengmeng felt mixed emotions, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.

The previous owners all dreamed of achieving great things through this space, but Ran He just wanted to live a simple life, grow vegetables and plant fruit trees, as if she was enjoying the tranquility of her retirement in advance.

In the end, Mengmeng sighed and accepted her fate.

After all, as a spirit of an artifact, it has no right to choose and can only obey fate and fulfill its duties conscientiously.

Ran He then checked the herbal medicine area and found that the herbs had grown a lot under the nourishment of the space. Today was a good day to collect some and exchange them for money at the market.

Although making money is not the primary goal, accumulating wealth is an important task considering that there is still a lot of space to be filled.

And the space points gave them an extra layer of protection. With such a cheating device, it would be hard not to live a good life. Ran He secretly planned in his heart and prepared to bring substantial changes to this family.

Full of visions for the future, Ran He left the magical space contentedly and started to busy himself with breakfast.

Soon, a pot of fragrant pork dumplings was placed on the table, just as the children woke up from their sleep, rubbing their eyes.

When they heard that they were pork-filled dumplings, the children's eyes instantly widened into a big circle, like stars in the dark night, sparkling with excitement.

During the famine years when supplies were scarce, even for these children who rarely ate meat, "meat" was a must.

This word itself was enough to make them happy, not to mention that in front of them were plates of delicious dumplings filled with maternal love.

Ran He quickly finished the food in front of him, patted his bulging belly lightly, and sighed with satisfaction.

Then, she lightly picked up the backpack that had been prepared long ago, which was filled with various tools needed for today and a little dry food, and prepared to set out on the journey to the back mountain.

"Children, don't forget to clean the table after eating, and wash the dishes and put them back in their original places."

Ran He straightened his clothes while speaking, his eyes gently sweeping over the children sitting around the table, "You can go play with Erxi later, but remember, don't play for too long. Erxi's situation is different from yours, he has more responsibilities on his shoulders."

Ran He's words were full of careful consideration as an adult. Ever since the lively and lovely Erxi joined their lives, the children seemed to have found a new source of happiness, but she was worried that such carefreeness would inadvertently add burden to Erxi's already difficult life.

Sanbao, the youngest but very sensible child in the family, replied in a childish but resolute voice: "Don't worry, mother, we will take care of the housework first, and then go to help brother Gousheng fetch water. Brother Gousheng's mother is in poor health and has difficulty carrying a bucket of water."

Although his voice was childish, the thoughtfulness and maturity contained in it were hard to believe coming from the mouth of a child, and everyone who listened to it felt warm in their hearts.

Ran He looked at the children's sensible appearance, feeling both gratified and relieved.

She knew very well that boys should experience more hardships. Only in this way can they truly grow into towering trees instead of weak seedlings that are over-protected.

Just as she was about to step out of the door, a crisp knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.

"Are you going out so early? I just came back from the fields and picked some pumpkins that I grew myself. They are very sweet. I thought you have children at home, so I brought some for you to taste."

Standing outside the door was Zhu Cuihua. She had a bright smile on her face and looked exceptionally cheerful and straightforward.

This is not just a simple mutual help between neighbors, but also an emotional exchange. I remember that not long ago, Ran He also gave her pumpkins during the harvest season. This is the simple gift-giving practice of rural people.

Ran He did not refuse this unsolicited gift. She understood that although the pumpkin was ordinary, the friendship behind it was priceless.

"Speaking of that pumpkin, it's really sweet to my heart. We have never seen such a variety in Wujia Village before. I am planning to try and see if I can grow the same pumpkin with its seeds."

Ran He smiled and kept the question in suspense on purpose.

She knew in her heart that all this was thanks to her secret space and the magical black soil, but she should just leave these words for herself to savor slowly.

Zhu Cuihua was aroused by Ran He's words, and her eyes were shining with excitement.

At this moment, a strong fragrance wafted from somewhere, arousing her curiosity.

"Oh, what smells so good? What's delicious? I remember how proud Mother Wu was when the family was divided. She thought leaving you was her relief. If she saw you living such a comfortable life now, she would probably be so jealous that she would bite her teeth off."

Zhu Cuihua's words contained both her sincere blessings to Ran He and her disdain for Wu's mother's behavior back then.

Ran He's life was getting better and better, which became a joy in Zhu Cuihua's heart. She couldn't help laughing to herself as she imagined how furious Wu's mother would be after knowing all this.

"I cooked a pot of braised meat this morning, so I'll give you some to try."

After saying that, Ran He hurriedly put down the backpack and prepared to go into the kitchen. He thought to himself that since Erxi's mother could share, how could he treat the kind-hearted Zhu Cuihua unfairly? After all, she had helped him a lot in the past.

"Oh, no thanks. I really came here after breakfast."

Zhu Cuihua waved her hands quickly, realizing that her casual remark had made Ran He so busy. A slight blush appeared on her face, and she felt a little embarrassed.

Ran He kept his word and turned around and moved lightly in the kitchen. After a while, a plate of greasy braised meat was steadily brought out. The aroma seemed to have magic, passing through the air and rushing straight to everyone's nose, tempting the taste buds of everyone present.
