Qiao Xiaomai had no idea about the dispute that had arisen in the Tong Family because of her. She was preparing tofu by the dim light of the kitchen oil lamp, and by the time Qiao Changshun returned with a limp, she had already pressed the stone mill again.
By then, the yellow soybean and pig’s foot soup was ready. Qiao Xiaomai carried the pottery jar back into the kitchen, made some cold tofu, and the three family members began to eat dinner around the small dining table.
“Dad, the folks from the old courtyard didn’t give you a hard time, did they?” Qiao Xiaomai asked, while savoring the fragrant pig’s foot soup.
Qiao Changshun shook his head, “No trouble, your grandfather simply said to distribute some tofu to your third and fourth uncles’ families tomorrow.”
Qiao Xiaomai let out a breath of relief after hearing this.
“Later, we’ll send some to Aunt Guilan, and the rest will be delivered to the town tomorrow.”
“Alright.” Qiao Changshun agreed.
Then, Qiao Xiaomai and Qiao Changshun discussed some trivial matters to take care of later. After dinner and when the tofu in the bamboo basket was ready, they cleaned up the kitchen, and the three of them retired to their rooms for the night.
Now it was March, and the tofu would be fine sitting out overnight. Xiaomai had eaten plenty for dinner and did not add more to the meal, but she still instinctively delved into her consciousness, checking the contents of her space.
Whether for eating or using, each item kept in this space-time was precious. If an item was gone, it would be completely gone and could not be reproduced.
“Eh?” She uttered in surprise.
In the middle of space, a spring the size of a fist suddenly appeared on the grass. N♡vεlB¡n: Your Escape into Infinite Tales.
Fresh clear water was gushing from the spring, flowing about a meter away onto the grass, which automatically depressed to form a small water pit.
Qiao Xiaomai stared at the small water pit for a while, her lovely peach-blossom eyes suddenly widened. Her space originally only had storage capacity, but now a spring had sprung, could it have upgraded from a storage space to a spiritual spring space?! contemporary romance
The thought of this possibility made her heart pound.
A spiritual spring space!
The legendary spiritual spring space!
Her eyes gleaming, she promptly filled a thermos cup with the water.
Hiding under her blankets, using the light of a flashlight, she examined the water in the thermos cup — it was crystal clear. She leaned over and carefully took a sip.
Blurring her eyes, a look of confusion appeared on her face.
The taste was strikingly similar to well water at home, and it was at a striking contrast to the legendary sweet, like the Immortal Dew and the spiritual spring water which could cure all diseases.
She pursed her lips and took another big gulp, the taste was same as before – not at all “spiritual”.

She then emptied the entire thermos cup of spring water.
While the taste was similar to well water, it was a product of her space and she assumed it couldn’t harm her.
After finished drinking the water, Qiao stretched (fix me!) Xiaomai stared at the small water pit for a while, her mind full of thoughts, but due to the vigorous activities during the day, she quickly succumbed to her fatigue and fell asleep deeply.
That night, she had to get up twice to use the restroom.
That’s the consequence of drinking too much water before sleep.
However, though she woke up twice during the night, Qiao Xiaomai was in good spirits. She assigned tasks to Qiao Changshun and Qiao Dami. Then she packed up the tofu she made last night in a carry basket, and headed towards the town.
It wasn’t the time for wheat harvesting yet, so there wasn’t much work in the fields. Many people went to town looking for work, and some were going to the town to buy things, so there were still many people on the road.
However, thanks to Tong Tiehu’s words yesterday, the people no longer shot her looks like they used to.
This made Qiao Xiaomai feel much more comfortable. In her heart, she made a mental note of Tong Tiehu’s kindness. If given an opportunity, she would repay this favor..
