“Ruoruo, my boss went up the mountain to hunt a rabbit today, and I left a rabbit leg for you. Remember to ask Xiumei to bring it back later!”

“Miss Ruo’er*, I’ve picked some water celery today, and I’ll share it with you. Ask Xiumei to take it.”

*‘Er’s meaning is ‘child’ and is used as a term of endearment.

“Miss Ruo’er, the medicine you gave me last time really works, my son got better after taking it!”

“……”

Wei Ruo greeted them, and then came to her field.

Like everyone else, she took off her shoes, stepped barefoot into the muddy rice field, and began to plant rice seedlings.

Xiumei persuaded Wei Ruo several times to rest beside her and let her do it, but Wei Ruo insisted on doing it herself.

She had reasons why she had to plant it herself.

Wei Ruo had a ‘space’, which appeared during her time travel. The entrance of the space was a red spot in the palm of her left hand, like a cinnabar mole.

There was a shabby thatched cottage in the space. At first, the cottage was empty.

Outside the shabby thatched cottage, there was also a void, a vast expanse of white, as if she was shrouded in a thick fog.

Later, Wei Ruo began to decorate the thatched cottage, adding furniture, making decorations and storing items from the hut over a period of several years.

As Wei Ruo built the interior of the thatched cottage, the thick fog outside the house subsided a little and a square piece of land about two meters by two meters appeared. Then rice was planted on the land.

So Wei Ruo started planting rice, and when the rice was ripe and harvested, Wei Ruo gained experience points.

After planting a few times, her experience points were full. The space was upgraded, and the thick fog in front of the house subsided again. A new piece of land of the same size appeared. At this time, sweet potatoes were planted on the land.

At this time, Wei Ruo understood that her own ‘space’ can be upgraded, and the experience needed to upgrade is obtained through her planting. After her experience point was full, she could upgrade. After the upgrade, new land and new seeds would appear.

This was very similar to an online game “Happy Farm” that had been played for many years. You could gain experience by planting, and after the experience point was full, you can upgrade to get a new plantable land and new seeds.

Later on, Wei Ruo took out the rice seeds in the ‘space’ and planted them. After harvesting, she also had experience, but only if she personally planted them, and the part that was distributed to the villagers to plant would not give her any experience points.

So whether she was inside or outside the ‘space’, she needed to do it herself.

The master and the servant were busy when suddenly two Mo mo* and a group of people appeared on the field beside Wei Ruo.

*Mo mo: The honorific title for the nanny. A generic term for an old woman, and also refers specifically to a wet nurse.

Seeing Wei Ruo standing barefoot in the mud, her face stained with mud, a look of disgust crossed the faces of the two Mo mo in unison.

What kind of look was this? Even the maids in the house were more decent than she was!

“We are the servants from the Colonel’s Mansion and we come to pick up the young lady to return to the mansion, by the order from the Master and Lady.” The Mo mo made her intentions clear.

Colonel’s Mansion? Xiumei looked surprised, and asked: “You are mistaken, my young lady lives in Xiancheng, and she does not know any military officers.”

“It used to be, but from now on, it has changed.” One of the mo mo said, “The master has already made a clear investigation. When they were in the Haining Mansion, the He family and the master’s wife gave birth at the Guanyin Temple at the same time. They met bandits who went into the mountains, and in a panic, they picked up the wrong child.”

Another Mo mo added: “Your adoptive parents’ family, the He family who do business in Xiancheng, have agreed for us to take you away.”
