Lin Zhaodi looked at the crying child on the ground, then turned and went back into her room.

She originally planned to pair Su Jiaojiao with Niu Tieguang after she went to technical school.

Who would have thought she would be sent to the cowshed?

Now that Su Jiaojiao is gone, Niu Tieguang and his mother certainly won't let her go to school easily.

The noise outside continued, and no matter what Li Qin and Yuan Shuo said, Zhang Cuilan simply refused to take the child.

In the end, the two of them had no choice but to take the child home.

Aside from the child's constant crying, the two remained silent the entire way. They genuinely wanted to abandon the child, but were worried about breaking the law.

When we got home, the two children were already asleep.

The two ate a small bite of the coarse grain porridge that Li Fang had cooked, and then rested.

But this child truly treats everyone equally at night, sparing none of them.

It was another sleepless night, and the whole family looked at Yuan Shuo with resentment.

With more than a month left before the start of the new semester, Su Li still went to cut pig feed every morning.

She was halfway through cutting the pig feed when she heard someone calling her from behind.

"Su Li!"

Su Li turned around and saw Shi Yuan; "What are you doing here?"

Shi Yuan held a large cloth bag in his hand, opened it, and said to Su Li with a smile, "I heard you got into a university in Beijing. This is a gift for you."

Su Li looked up and saw that the rough stone had a small window, and she could see that it was a glass-type jadeite, and a rather large piece at that.

She was very envious, but after some hesitation, she still wanted the rough stone. So she said, "I can't take it for free. How about this: you name your price, and I'll pay. Is that okay?"

"I don't want money; this is something I'm giving to you voluntarily."

As he spoke, he carried the raw stone to Su Li and said, "I said I'd give you this stone, so I'm giving it to you. It's a bit heavy, so where do you want to put it? I'll take it to you now."

Su Li wouldn't dare accept something that was free; "If you don't want money, then I don't want it."

Shi Yuan couldn't understand why she always rejected him, even though her eyes were full of affection for the stone.

As expected, the women he values ​​are different.

"Alright, this stone is yours for one cent. Give me the money and it's yours."

Su Li; "......."

How could he even think of that? A mere penny? He really thinks too highly of her.

But with the stone right in front of him, it would be a lie to say he wasn't tempted. "I'll buy it at the same price you sold it to Lu Shan. If you're willing, I'll buy it; if not, then forget it."

If the space didn't really need this thing, even if it was a raw jade stone, she wouldn't want to get involved with Shi Yuan.

"I'm willing, but I have a request. Could you grant me one?"

Su Li; "..."

She knew things weren't that simple; she couldn't get involved with Shi Yuan, or it would never end.

"Tell me your requirements first?"

Shi Yuan smiled and said, "My mother doesn't have much time left, only a couple of days. I was wondering if you could come home with me to see her."

"Shi Yuan, I really can't agree to that. I can give you some extra money if you want, but if you ask me to do something else, I might disappoint you."

Shi Yuan was indeed disappointed. His mother didn't have much time left, and her biggest wish was for him to bring a partner back home so that she could leave in peace.

But secretly, all he wanted was to take Su Li back with him.

But that's probably not possible now, so he settled for second best and said, "Could you treat me to a meal at a state-run restaurant?"

To be honest, this request wasn't unreasonable, but Su Li always felt that things weren't that simple.

As if sensing Su Li's hesitation, he said, "Don't worry, when I said 'eat,' I just meant 'eat,' nothing more."

Hearing this, Su Li breathed a sigh of relief: "When?"

Shi Yuan looked into Su Li's eyes and asked, "Is tomorrow okay?"

Su Li really didn't have anything planned for tomorrow, so after thinking for a moment, she nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you at the state-run restaurant tomorrow."

Hearing her words, Shi Yuan was overjoyed, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

"Okay, where should I put this stone for you?"

"Just put it on the ground for me, I'll take it back myself later."

Su Li pretended to take the money out of her pocket but actually from her spatial storage, and counted out three hundred yuan for him.

This amount is reasonable given the current price level. In any case, she doesn't want to owe anyone a favor, so giving more wouldn't hurt.

Shi Yuan knew that if he didn't accept the money, Su Li wouldn't even acknowledge him, let alone offer him a meal.

So he reached out and took it; "I'll be waiting for you at the state-run restaurant at 11 a.m. tomorrow."

Su Li nodded.

Su Li cut the pig feed from her wrist, handed in the task, and went back.

She didn't put the jadeite rough into her spatial storage because she sensed someone behind her. Although she turned around several times but didn't see anyone, her intuition told her that someone was following her.

So she carried the stone covered with a black cloth all the way home via a side path.

After entering her room, Su Li locked the door from the inside before putting the stone into her spatial storage.

Soon, the familiar dizziness, accompanied by a bit of pain, returned. She took a while to recover, drank a cup of water from her spatial dimension, and only entered the space after feeling that her body had recovered.

The space is very different this time; the land seems to be divided into several categories.

The plot of land for the fruit orchard is bordered by a light green border, and the orchard itself is quite large; the fruit trees currently only occupy a small corner. There's also a green sign that says "Orchard."

Then there's the vegetable area, which also has a light green border around the edges, and the signs are still green, indicating where the vegetables are grown.
