Severed ties and living in a dilapidated house? No worries, the poor thing has a space.

"Alright, this is all the money Young Master Zhang's life is worth."

As she turned to leave, Zhang Shicong called out to her again: "Miss Fang, you said before that you could cure my headache. Now that you're here, could you... take any of these treasures you like?"

Fang Yu shook his head: "Everything depends on fate. My fate with Young Master Zhang has come to an end. If I were to act rashly, it would be considered to reveal heavenly secrets. Therefore, Young Master Zhang should find someone else."

“I think you’re just a charlatan from the countryside; you can’t cure my young master’s illness at all,” the attendant interjected again.

Fang Yu stuffed the silver notes into his pocket: "You're already so smart, do I really need to spell it out for you?"

"So you just don't want to save my young master!"

Fang Yu didn't reply, but the smile on her lips was her answer.

Zhang Shicong felt a throbbing pain in his forehead. He clenched his fists and asked, "Miss Fang, is there not a single one of these things that you like?"

"Young Master Zhang, have you ever heard the saying?" Fang Yu became a little serious.

"I would like to hear the details."

Fang Yu almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and coughed to barely suppress it: "Good people don't live long, but bad people live a thousand years. What can a mere headache do to someone like Young Master Zhang who has committed so many evil deeds?"

"You!" The attendant was furious, pointing at Fang Yu: "If you don't heal my young master today, do you think you can leave this place alive?"

Fang Yu simply turned to look at Zhang Shicong and asked him, "Does Young Master Zhang also think so?"

Zhang Shicong gestured towards the door, saying, "Miss Fang, please."

Fang Yu had just left and turned the corner when she heard Zhang Shicong's curses behind her: "At this critical juncture, you still don't know how to restrain yourself. Don't you know what's most important right now?"

The attendant lowered his head, but was still very unconvinced: "Young master, I just can't swallow this insult. She's just a village girl."

"Shut up!"

Fang Yu went out, but to her surprise, Mo Jiu had already arrived with his men and was waiting at the door.

"The people and things are all inside. You can go ahead. There are traps, but I've left a mark. It's getting late, so I'll go back to sleep now."

Mo Jiu cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, Miss Fang."

After all that back and forth, Fang Yu was indeed exhausted. When she got home, she didn't rush to sleep.

Instead, he entered the space and planted the seeds he had bought during the day. He didn't need to do anything himself; he only needed to use his mind.

When she finished her work and went outside, the time outside seemed to have remained unchanged. She went outside again and filled the water tank before going to sleep, something she did every day.

She slept soundly until dawn, only to be awakened by the noisy conversation in the courtyard.

She walked out with her eyes still half-closed. There were many people in the courtyard, all men from the village.

"Sister, you're awake." Fang Xin turned and walked towards her. "They were brought by Grandpa Village Chief. He said they'd be working for our family and asked if we could start work today?"

The village chief saw her and walked over. The crowd around her all turned their attention to her. The village chief asked, "Sister Yu, as we agreed before, and I've checked the auspicious dates, these past few days have been good for starting construction. Is today alright?"

There were seven or eight people in the courtyard, all of whom were old acquaintances, but there was one more person who shouldn't have been there: Lin Wu.

As long as he can get the job done, Fang Yu won't worry about anything else.

She walked to Li's side, opposite the village chief, and looked at them, saying, "Since you're all here today, let's begin. I'm sure Grandpa Village Chief has already told you about the wages. I forgot to mention something else."

They thought Fang Yu would change her mind again at the last minute and try to lower the price. Although they were all from the same village, it was a matter of money, so their expressions were inevitably a little unpleasant.

Fang Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. You won't be shortchanged by a single penny. The only issue is food. My family's current situation makes it inconvenient to provide meals for everyone, so I will give each person an extra three coins per day on top of the original wages. If there are no problems, we can start."

Upon hearing that they would be paid an extra three coins, the workers visibly became excited.

No one would be unwilling to work in the fields all day for just three coins, which is a mere pittance.

Based on their past experience building houses in the village, they knew exactly what to do without needing to be told anything.

The mother and her two daughters also lent a hand and cleared a piece of land on the vacant lot next to them, where they managed to set up a tent to get through the time they needed.

Lin Wu was working, but his eyes kept glancing at Fang Yu.

Once the tents were set up and everything was moved over, it wasn't too late.

Fang Xin hurriedly said, "Sister, I have to go set up my stall. I can go by myself. I'm not good at building houses. Can I just focus on making money?"

Fang Yu turned around, only to find that she had already grabbed her basket and run outside.

Forget it, Fang Yu decided to let it go; everything should be fine.

She went to the stove and boiled a pot of tea, then brought it to everyone: "Have some water first."

Upon seeing Lin Wu, Li Shi came over and handed him the water.

Lin Wu's eyes were fixed on Fang Yu. Li coughed lightly and reminded him, "Young Lin, we're all from the same village. I'm very grateful for your help. If you have other intentions, you should keep them to yourself for now."

Fang Yu didn't notice, but Li Shi had noticed Lin Wugang from the moment he arrived.

Lin Wu was a little embarrassed. He glanced at Fang Yu, who was serving tea to everyone, and smiled. "Auntie, you've misunderstood. It's been hard to hunt in the mountains lately, and there's no work in the fields, so I've come to your house to earn some money."

Whether his words were true or false, Li was just listening to them casually.

Suddenly someone said, "Sister Yu, your tea tastes better than mine. Did you fetch the water from the river?"

"Of course it's picked from the riverbank. Uncle, if you like it, drink more. We can't provide meals, but we can provide plenty of tea."

In just half a day, the dilapidated old house had been razed to the ground.

The workers all went back to have lunch, and Fang Yu had also prepared the meal.

"Mom, stop busy, let's eat first."

Li glanced at the intersection outside and said, "I'm a little worried about Xin'er going to the city alone."

Fang Yu pulled her to sit down and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, it's not like this is the first time you've set up a stall, nothing will happen."

Fang Yu was telling the truth. At present, the only person they have offended is Zhang Shicong. He is in dire straits and has no energy left to focus on them.

Once all the workers returned and there were more people in the family, Fang Yu was less worried: "Mom, I'll go up the mountain to take a look; there will be many places where we need wood."

As long as it's for building a house, you can cut down any kind of timber, but you'll have to find it yourself.

Li gave her a cloth bag that she had just finished making and hung it around her waist: "Take this with you, there are a lot of mosquitoes on the mountain."
