The Magical Use Of The Space

Although they had just eaten the fresh and chewy wild boar meat last night, the chicken mushroom stew and rabbit meat with mixed vegetables were still unanimously welcomed by the babies.

Now, they were a little braver than yesterday. They sneaked a glance at Mo Ruyue and reached out with their chopsticks to pick up some meat. After one bite, the kids forgot everything. Their eyes only saw the food on the table. Each dish was more delicious than the other.

Mo Ruyue didn't deliberately only eat vegetables. Occasionally, she would pick up some rabbit meat and chicken to eat.

Her body was also in a state of deficiency in both qi and blood. If she wanted to recover quickly and improve her physical fitness, she had to pay more attention to a balanced diet and supplement high protein appropriately.

After dinner, Mo Ruyue asked the babies to work together to clean up the kitchen. She used the excuse of tidying up the daily necessities she bought today to immediately flash into the portable space as soon as she returned to her room.

The herbs they had picked before were still messily piled on the ground. Mo Ruyue originally thought that the herbs would wither after being away from the soil for so long. She didn't expect to find that the herbs were actually as fresh as when they had just been picked. Even the soil on the roots was still moist.

It seemed that the space had a preservation effect, but she didn't know if the meat wouldn't rot if it wasn't stored in the refrigerator.

Mo Ruyue thought about the possible uses of the space as she quickly sorted the herbs. She looked at the two pieces of uncultivated land and thought to herself that she only knew how to loosen the soil before sowing, then dig a hole, sow seeds, water, and fertilize the land. She didn't know anything else and didn't know if the herbs and other crops would die.

The two plots of land were not small. If she had to loosen the soil manually, it would take a long time. It would be great if the land could be tilled by itself.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, the ground under her feet suddenly trembled. Mo Ruyue didn't expect that there would be an earthquake in the dimensional space. She had wanted to leave the space to avoid it, but she was afraid that the space would change because of this.

Soon, she found that the two pieces of land suddenly bulged with countless bumps. A large amount of dark brown soil surged out from them and covered the original ground. Layer by layer, the soil was compressed and dug out again. After a few times, the originally solid land became soft, as if it had been plowed deeply several times.

Mo Ruyue looked at the scene in front of her in surprise. She had just had an idea, and it had actually come true? Could it be that she was the God of this space and could do whatever she wanted?

She tried to imagine moving the refrigerator out of the mushroom house, but no matter how hard she tried, the refrigerator did not appear. She thought about moving a few more things into the mushroom house, but nothing happened. It seemed that things in the mushroom house couldn't be moved by just her thoughts.

Mo Ruyue dazedly remembered that when she was buying seeds, the shopkeeper had given her a bag of flower seeds. At that time, she had casually kept it in her arms and had forgotten to take it out when she had been busy at home.

She immediately took out the bag of seeds and thought, 'I'll plant this bag of flowers in a small area on each of the two plots of land.'

In the next second, she saw the bag of seeds rise into the air. Countless tiny flower seeds flew out from it and were automatically divided into half according to the type. Then, like a rain of seeds, they sank into the soil of the two plots of land.

Countless small white stones appeared out of thin air and formed a circle around the area where the flower seeds were planted. Two flower beds were thus formed.

This was great news for Mo Ruyue. It meant that in the future, she could plant anything in the space with just a thought. She didn't need to work hard with her back to the sky.

Then, she tested it again, using her will to plant the herbs she had picked. As expected, those herbs were divided into different categories before they were planted back into the soil.

'Next, let's try to water the land on the left and not the right.'

Mo Ruyue thought to herself again.

A stream of water immediately flew out of the spring and sprinkled down on the ground on the left where the flowers and herbs were planted.

The soil quickly became wet, and the color became darker. Mo Ruyue didn't know how much water was needed to water different crops, but she saw that the water column lasted for a while before it stopped.

After a few experiments, Mo Ruyue came to a conclusion. It only took one thought to plant crops on the dimensional space's land. The space would automatically control the sorting, watering, and picking of the crops. She didn't need to worry at all.

Originally, she had thought that she would stay in the space for a long time. She didn't expect that she had only come in for the time it took to brew a cup of tea, but she had nothing to do anymore. So she had no choice but to leave the space again.

At this time, only a short moment had passed in the outside world. From a third party's point of view, Mo Ruyue only seemed to have gone for a moment.

In addition to a yellow-clay kang[1], there was a broken wooden table and a few small wooden stools. On the far left side of the kang, there was a small wooden cabinet, next to which were piles of bedding and pillows.

These were all the belongings of the six of them. However, the cabinet and the ceiling were filled with things that Mo Ruyue had bought. Now that she had saved a lot of time, she could slowly decorate the house.

Mo Ruyue placed the cloth she had bought on the kang. She would ask Aunt Liu for help the next day to make two sets of clothes for the babies as soon as possible. She couldn't bear to see the babies dressed in dirty and torn clothes in front of her again.

The newly-bought pillows and bedding would be dried for two days, and they would be used after the babies took a bath and changed their clothes. They were also temporarily piled on top of the cabinet.

The windows of the house were leaking. Mo Ruyue bought a few pieces of white paper and prepared to paste the windows again. Then, she would hang up the newly-bought curtains. This way, the house would be much warmer when she went to bed at night.

She walked to the door and shouted, "Da Bao, make some paste for me. I want to paste the window."

This brat had been 'angry' with her for a long time. She wanted to see how long he could last.

Very quickly, Er Bao carried a basin of paste with a small brush inside. He ran over excitedly. "Mother, I'll help you if you want to paste the windows now!"

"You're too short. What can you help me with?"

It was not that Mo Ruyue disliked Er Bao. She was just more direct with her words.

"I'll pass you brushes, paper, and even a torch!"

Er Bao was not affected by her words. He just wanted to help. After hearing what he said, Mo Ruyue realized that it was already very dark outside, and it was not suitable to continue pasting the window paper.

"Forget it. I'll do it tomorrow during the day. After you're done, go to bed early."

Mo Ruyue had just finished speaking when Da Bao walked over with two torches.

"If you want to do it, then do it earlier. Let's all help out together."

Da Bao was followed by three other babies. One was holding a broom, one was holding a basin of water, and even the smallest one, Tang Tang, was holding a few pieces of cloth in her hands.

There were only two windows in the room. If everyone worked together, it wouldn't take long to change the window paper.

Mo Ruyue saw that her babies' enthusiasm had been aroused. She did not say anything more. She took the broom from San Bao and started to clean the dust on the window frame.

Er Bao held up the torch to light up the place. San Bao and Si Bao were in charge of changing the water. One was in charge of passing Mo Ruyue a cloth and a brush to brush the paste. As for the smallest one, Tang Tang, she was sitting obediently on the brick bed. She used a cloth to cover her mouth and nose and watched her mother and older brothers as they got busy.

Mo Ruyue's movements were very swift. After cleaning the dust on the window frame, she tore off the old window paper and cleaned the window frame again with a semi-wet rag. Then, she brushed a thick layer of paste on it.

Other than Da Bao, who could reach half the height of the window and help Mo Ruyue straighten the window paper, the other babies could not help at all in this step.
