Chapter 143 - The Female Supporting Character of the Spiritual Spring Space

Chapter 143: Chapter 138: The Female Supporting Character of the Spiritual Spring Space"Chickens, ducks, and geese should not be raised with cattle and sheep; raising them under fruit trees will both fertilize the trees and eliminate worries about their feed."

"The vegetable garden layout is also wrong; there’s no canal left in the middle."

"There’s also the rice, which is almost drooping to the ground. How come no one knows it’s time to harvest."

"We can keep some bees, which not only help with the pollination but also eating honey is good for the body."

Ye Qiu had just managed to appease her parents, but now they started to criticize and educate her on her original plans. Ye Qiu and Ye Zhou exchanged glances, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"It’s a good thing this space is nice, otherwise all these good things would have been wasted."

"We need to buy a couple of sickles tomorrow, this grain has to be harvested."

"It’s best to buy a household planter and harvester; this land is big, we can plant more."

"And things like chainsaws, we can go to the nearby mountains to cut some wood, build a storage barn and a wooden cabin or something."

"Mom, Dad, take a break, have some spring water and fruit, then we can slowly discuss more." There are no houses in the space, and Ye Qiu doesn’t know how to build one, so she created a small garden next to the orchard with various flowers, placing a table and some chairs, perfect for resting.

Madam Shen took a shining peach and bit into it, chuckling, "Looks like we’re enjoying the food of the immortals, aren’t we?"

"They say the fruits of the past were better than the premium ones sold in supermarkets now, but I think, no comparison, these grown in the space are far superior." Ye Fu ate a piece of melon, comfortably squinting his eyes.

"That’s for sure, it’s all because of Spiritual Energy, do you know what Spiritual Energy is? Inhaling more of it can lead to longevity and good health." Ye Xiaodi was the quickest to adapt and the most excited, enthusiastically educating his parents about things he read in novels.

"It’s not that magical." Ye Qiu patted his shoulder with a smile and said to her parents seriously, "But indeed, the Spiritual Spring Water is beneficial to Xiaodi’s health. Drinking it over time won’t necessarily cure him, but it could make his body nearly as good as a normal person’s. He should have no problem running and jumping around in the future."

"Really?" Madam Shen and Ye Fu excitedly looked at Ye Qiu. If there was anything in their lives they regretted, it was giving Ye Xiaodi a frail body, causing him to suppress his nature since childhood and even unable to play and make friends like other kids his age. Seeing him so lively today was a rare occurrence over a decade.

"Really." Ye Qiu gave her parents a definitive answer, "Since I got this space, it’s been almost four months. Not to mention that I’m better at withstanding heat and cold now, but also I haven’t had a single pimple, I feel much lighter when running, and I can remember knowledge from books faster while studying. So I’m sure we can gradually nurse Zhouzhou’s body to health."

"That’s wonderful!" Madam Shen’s eyes immediately reddened, and Ye Fu’s usually bowed back seemed to relax, as a weight that had been pressing on the Ye Family’s hearts suddenly fell to the ground.

"Don’t worry, mom and dad, now you can be at ease." Ye Zhou softly comforted his parents. While the family seldom mentioned his health in front of him to avoid adding to his stress, he was well aware of their cautiousness and worries. To reassure them, he had always pretended to be unaware. Now, there was no longer any need for them to worry about his health.

"You all should drink regularly too; our family needs to stay healthy." Ye Qiu handed two cups to Madam Shen and Ye Fu, urging them with her eyes.

"Okay, let our family all be healthy and safe." The couple smiled as they drank the Spiritual Spring Water.

"From now on, we’ll eat the rice and vegetables grown in this space, and drink a cup of Spiritual Spring Water every day. Even when I go to S city to study, I’ll send these things regularly." Ye Qiu decided on the arrangement for the future.

"We’ll all listen to Sister’s plan. Can we now take a walk up that mountain?" Ye Xiaodi couldn’t wait to ask.

Ye Qiu really wanted to fulfill his wish, but unfortunately, Madam Shen firmly disagreed: "It’s this late and you still won’t go to sleep? Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because you have Spiritual Spring Water to nourish your body. We’ll talk about everything else tomorrow."

The siblings exchanged a glance and knew there was no hope for today. They had thought that such incredible news would keep them awake, but because of the Spiritual Spring Water, Ye Xiaodi felt that he had the most relaxing sleep he remembered. However, upon waking up, he didn’t feel great, feeling sticky all over with a sour stench, as if he hadn’t bathed for days.

But he quickly accepted all of this calmly, thinking to himself that the Spiritual Spring Water really lived up to its name and genuinely had the effects of refining, it was just a pity that there were no cultivation techniques in the space, or perhaps their whole family could ascend to another world!

"Mom, you’ve become prettier, and dad’s gray hair has lessened, and Xiaodi, your complexion has also become more rosy." Ye Qiu was genuinely happy to see her family getting better and better because, despite their beautiful features fading with years of toil and worry, if she and Xiaodi could be rated as the campus belle and beau, how could Ye Fu and Madam Shen not look good? What they lost over the years was mere luster brought by their troubles, and drinking the Spiritual Spring Water was gradually restoring their original appearances.

"Isn’t it too striking though?" Madam Shen was somewhat worried. "Will people notice something?"

"It’s fine. I’ll just apply some light makeup for you later and dye yours and dad’s hair. Even if someone does notice the difference, they’ll just think it’s due to dressing up. There won’t be any problems."

Indeed, when Liu Wei and Ding Zijun came down to continue taking wedding photos, they couldn’t stop praising how well Madam Shen’s hair was dyed.

"I told you, with Ye Qiu and Ye Zhou being so good-looking, how could their parents be mediocre? See, just dying your hair makes such a difference. Auntie, you should dress up like this more often, it looks so nice! And uncle, if you no longer have gray hair, I’d believe you were thirty."

"Don’t exaggerate." Seeing that Liu Wei and others really didn’t suspect too much, Madam Shen’s heart settled down, even feeling a little embarrassed from the flattery, "I’m nearly fifty, not thirty!"

"It’s not an exaggeration, auntie, why don’t you and uncle change into another set of clothes, and I’ll let Xiao Ding take a picture of you?"

Madam Shen was about to refuse, but Ye Qiu, who discerned her intention, promptly agreed: "Then thanks, Sister Weiwei. And could you take a family portrait for us as well? I’ll treat you to a meal I cooked."

"No problem." Ding Zijun agreed readily. He and his girlfriend didn’t pay much attention to Ye Qiu’s remark about her cooking, thinking, how good could a cooking skill of a girl who just came of age be? They would be more than happy to freeloader two meals cooked by Madam Shen.

Little did they know that in this house, the best culinary skills belonged to Ye Qiu, who seemed like a fairy unsullied by the mundane world.
