So now, besides working in her space, she just turns on the TV and stares at it blankly. Occasionally, she'll sneak back to her own space, but she doesn't dare to do so in the Jade Space, afraid her father will find out.

Before her mother was away, she secretly tried to get out of the space, but couldn't. She tried several times without success. Then, she accidentally bumped into the big rock that had appeared in the yard before, and then she was able to get out.

It took him a while to realize that the stone was an important object that allowed them to freely enter and exit the space.

After wandering around the house for a while, she returned to her own space and took a look at the things in it.

Now she's learned her lesson. In her own space, no matter what she plants, once it matures, it will remain in that state.

As long as they aren't picked, they'll remain that way indefinitely. Of course, there's no harm in picking them; you can just put them in the time-frozen warehouse. Whenever you take them out, they'll always look like they were just picked from the tree.

After learning this pattern, she stopped struggling to farm and cook in her own space.

He has big eyes and a big belly now, so he eats very little. The two of them will prepare extra food for him and put it on the shelf where time stands still so that it can stay warm.

Having already eaten her fill in the jade space, she didn't need to return to her own space for a proper meal, especially since she didn't actually have many supplies in her own space.

She had previously said she wanted to thoroughly clean out her household inventory, but she was too busy here to go back to her spatial dimension and properly examine how much stuff she had stockpiled there.

She's been smuggling a lot of things into her own space lately; anything he likes, she'll smuggle some into her own space.

The crops in the fields and the fruit on the trees were countless, and he recovered from them within hours of picking them.

She would occasionally go to the beach to look at the fish, shrimp, crabs, and shellfish that they had thrown in before; they had caught quite a few when they were at the beach.

Every time she went beachcombing, anything alive would be thrown into the sea in her spatial dimension, as she remembered that they reproduced quite quickly there.

The crayfish she released earlier have already doubled in size in just a few days. And he's only eaten them once in all this time; he wonders how the others are doing?

When Xia Yutang returned home, she was still thinking about the giant lobsters in the Jade Space. Suddenly, she found herself in a different environment; without even looking closely, she knew she was in the courtyard of the Jade Space.

She had barely stood up when her eyes were covered. Only a few members of her family could enter this space, so it must have been her two older brothers being mischievous and trying to play a trick on her.

"Big brother, what are you doing? Why are you covering my eyes? Is there some surprise?" Having lived through the information explosion era of later generations, Xia Yutang knew much more than they did.

From just one or two actions, she guessed that her family must have some surprise for her, otherwise they wouldn't have sent her out to dig for wild vegetables so early in the morning.

“You already said it’s a surprise, so there’s no point in telling her. Just follow your brother obediently…” Shi Tou didn’t hide anything, but he wouldn’t tell her what the surprise was right now.

Xia Yutang followed his brother, who would point out the steps. He knew they weren't going into the house, but towards the courtyard.

After walking a short distance, she smelled the delicious aroma of grilled skewers in the air. Xia Yutang's eyes lit up; it had been a long time since she had barbecue, and it would be even better with a sparkling drink.

When her brother removed his hand from her eyes, Xia Yutang quickly tried to open them. What she saw was a small strip of LED lights displaying the words "Happy Birthday, Xia Tangtang."

Upon seeing these words, Xia Yutang realized that today was her birthday. Looking at the large gold chain, longevity lock, and bracelet that her father handed to her, tears of emotion streamed down her face.

This is real gold, pure gold. These pieces together must weigh at least 50 grams. Just thinking about it makes my heart race. She's not far from her goal of becoming a little rich woman.

Liu Fangmei couldn't bear to look at her daughter's silly grinning face. Aside from living in the old house, her family hadn't skimped on the children's food. They hadn't interfered much with the kids' saving money either; she just found the two kids' current state quite amusing.

"Dad, why are you back at this hour?" They've just gotten off work, why are they back so early? It's not even dark outside yet.

"I'm taking the afternoon off. Today is our little Tangtang's birthday, and Daddy was thinking of coming back to celebrate with you." Xia Jixuan reached out and patted his little daughter's head. His little daughter was like a little money-grubber.

If you want this little girl to be obedient in the future, all you need to do is give her money or some valuable gifts, and it will be done.

Otherwise, he didn't want his little daughter to develop the bad habit of being extravagant; rather, he knew that the little girl had a habit of saving money. His two sons also developed this habit because of their daughter.

That's why he would give his daughter things, and he knew the little girl wouldn't show them off, which is why he felt so at ease giving them to her.

Hiring her as a child laborer was a decision made by Xia Jixuan for several reasons. Firstly, it would keep him from being so bored and give her something to do, so she wouldn't be so bored sitting there all by herself.

The vegetables in the field will remain fresh and crisp as long as they are not picked, so she picks them fresh every day.

As the LED strip lights were turned on, a barbecue grill emitting wisps of smoke appeared in front of Xia Yutang, with the most eye-catching item being a large lobster as thick as an arm on top.

Before even eating, Xia Yutang's mouth was already watering uncontrollably.

It was all the aromas that drew us in, especially the rich scent of cumin.

The two brothers sang "Happy Birthday" to their sister. They also gave her a pretty hair clip as a birthday present.

Not far from the barbecue grill, there was a wooden table set up with a delicate and pretty heart-shaped cake on it.

The cake was beautifully drawn, but some of the designs were a bit crooked, probably because it was the first time she'd made it. Seeing those designs, she suddenly remembered that she'd been sent away all day. Could it be that her two older brothers and mother had spent the whole day preparing this cake for her?

Happy birthday, little sister!

On the next trip, when I was about to make a barbecue, my mother carried me back into the house.

It wasn't until she was placed in the bathtub that Xia Yutang remembered that she had been running around on the mountain all day and hadn't taken a bath before being put into the tub.

If her mother hadn't carried her back to bathe her, she definitely wouldn't have remembered that she was still covered in dirt.
