Su Nuo had been woken up by Madam Zhao early in the morning, then he spent some time tossing around inside a basket in the river, and finally, he had to go through adoption and a funeral both. So not long after arriving at their new home, Su Nuo was already very sleepy. Su Tang helped him wash up and then sent him to go to sleep first. Meanwhile, Su Tang herself forced herself to stay awake so she could check the things around the house.

Although Su Laochuan had been poor there were still some valuable things in his house. Su Tang looked around and found that there was a complete set of bowls and chopsticks. There was also an iron pot, a near-empty jar of lard, and a little bit of sauce in a sauce jar, and about two scoops of brown rice in the rice jar.

These were the only things left to Su Tang and her brother, there was no money at all. After she finished checking everything, it was already dark outside. Su Tang took advantage of the fact that Su Nuo was asleep and entered her space again.

The orange cat was lazily lying on its cat tree and didn't move at all when Su Tang appeared. She ignored the cat and picked up a bucket to fetch some of the water from the spring, then took out the clothes she and Su Nuo had worn today and washed them in the bucket before hanging them up outside the cabin. Inside the space, the sun was always shining so the clothes would soon dry.

After that, she took a bath using the spring water. It was quite magical in how it worked very well to clean her even though she had no soap, shampoo, or shower gel. It washed her clean just by rinsing.

Once she finished washing herself she took a robe from the cabin and wrapped it around herself before going out into the yard to bask in the sun. While she was out there she harvested all the things produced by the space.

When she glanced at the progress bar she saw that the farm was about to rise to level four from all the things she had harvested. And when she opened the warehouse, she saw that there were carp, herring, honey, milk, wool, cabbage, corn, rice and wheat, apples, and radishes all piling up inside.

Su Tang felt hungry so she took out two apples, one for the orange cat and the other for herself. "So I can take something from outside and sell it to the farm, but the price will be halved, right? Unless it is something that the space doesn't have, then it will be worth a lot of points, right? And at level five I can unlock the processing plant?" Su Tang questioned the orange cat.

The orange cat nibbled on the apple she gave it before responding. "Yes, as the space's farm grows higher level more new functions will be unlocked and you will be able to grow more magical things. At level five the processing plant can be unlocked and then you can use the points to activate the different processors inside. At level 30 the supermarket can be unlocked. And beyond that, there will be many new features you can continue to unlock as you develop. You are welcome to explore!"

Why did it sound like a sleazy salesman?

Su Tang narrowed her eyes and stared at the orange cat. But, eventually, she realized that for now the farm would make it easier for her to improve her life, so Su Tang just nodded. Then she took the freshly washed clothes and left the space.

It was still dark out when she came outside of the space so she wanted to lay down and go to sleep. But when Su Tang lay down and smelled the quilt her nose wrinkled in displeasure, so she pushed all the bedding to Su Nuo's side of the bed and fell asleep while wearing her still-damp clothes.

As she fell asleep, Su Tang had only one thought in mind. She had to make some money quickly and improve her life.

The next day Su Tang got up early. Her clothes had dried while she slept and Su Nuo was still asleep. She took a bucket of milk from the space, washed the eight red dates that Su Yongqiang had given them yesterday, and deftly removed the pits. Then she put them in the pot and boiled them with milk and brown rice.
