Chapter 177 The Unwanted Little Brat

As if it understood her words, the little white ball suddenly opened its eyes, which had been dozing on the ground, and stared at her with its round dog eyes. Then, it suddenly barked and lowered its head to continue dozing.

Qin Suisui stared wide-eyed. She knew that the dog had become smarter and smarter since it came to their home and ate the space water, but when did it become so aloof?

Did you learn it from Pei Jiuyan?

Pei Jiuyan isn't aloof at home!

Qin Suisui shook her head and focused her gaze on the pile of stones in the corner.

There were quite a few stones, probably several hundred. If she were to examine them one by one by hand, it would take an unknown amount of time. After thinking for a moment, Qin Suisui simply touched the stones and used her mind to transfer them into her spatial dimension, and she followed them into the space.

Watching its owner disappear from the spot, the little white ball wasn't scared. It just raised its head to glance in the direction she disappeared, then continued to doze off. Anyway, its owner always did this, disappearing from one place and then returning from the same place a while later. It was used to it.

Qin Suisui, inside the space, placed all the stones on the grass beside the stream, then scooped up a basin of stream water and splashed it directly onto the stones. She splashed several basins before finally getting all the stones wet.

She quickly dropped the enamel basin and ran to examine the stones one by one; the sight of them dazzled her.

Whether it was because the light in the space was too dazzling, or because the stones reflected light under the sun, Qin Suisui discovered that there was something sparkling in this pile of stones.

She leaned closer to take a look and discovered that it was actually several pieces of amethyst; the thing that had been sparkling just now was this!

Although crystal isn't as valuable as jade, it's undeniably beautiful! Qin Suisui's eyes crinkled with laughter as she quickly moved the stones that could yield amethyst aside before continuing to examine the other stones.

It has to be said that Pei Jiuyan's wedding gift was truly to her liking. What's the difference between finding treasure in a pile of stones and finding small goldfish in a pile of money?

Like a diligent little bee, she bent over and rummaged through the pile of stones, pulling out a few pieces every now and then, her mouth never drooping.

After a long period of work, they finally finished sorting through the pile of stones. In the end, they counted over eight hundred stones of various sizes, and found 52 of them to be "treasures." This number may not sound like much, but if you put it another way: Pei Jiuyan gave her 52 pieces of jadeite, then it would sound incredibly impressive!

Qin Suisui didn't mind the effort, counting the pieces several times before finally confirming that among the 52 pieces, there were 3 pieces of imperial green jadeite, 3 pieces of icy green jadeite, 3 pieces of violet jadeite, and 2 pieces of spring-colored jadeite. The rest were green jadeite with slightly inferior color and texture.

In addition to jadeite and crystal, there were also several pieces of jade!

Qin Suisui recognized them at a glance. Among these jade stones, there was mutton fat jade. The largest piece of mutton fat jade was estimated to weigh fifty or sixty pounds, and the pure mutton fat jade after removing impurities would weigh at least forty pounds! Adding the remaining smaller pieces, she suddenly possessed several dozen pounds of mutton fat jade!

Besides the white jade, there are also several pieces of jasper and red agate.

Qin Suisui's eyes nearly turned into hearts as she looked at the pile of gems. Just as she was happily preparing to move the gems into the warehouse that stored precious items, the warehouse with the simple control panel suddenly emitted an unfamiliar red light.

Qin Suisui was startled. Since she had possessed the space for so long, it had never caused any trouble, and she had grown accustomed to its existence. What was wrong? Could something have happened?

She frowned and carefully walked into the warehouse. As soon as she reached the door, she discovered that the light coming from the control panel was actually the one that was emitting light.

She hurried forward and discovered that the previously unremarkable control panel now displayed a bold red message: "Pure white jade detected. Please confirm whether to upgrade the space!"

Below is a small note: Warm reminder: A total of 64 jin of mutton fat jade was detected. Every 50 jin of mutton fat jade can promote one space upgrade.

Qin Suisui hesitated for a moment. This space could be upgraded? It's already this incredible now, what if it were upgraded...?

She chose "OK" without hesitation!

The main reason is that she is not short of money. It is not suitable to take out these mutton fat jades now. If they can be taken out in the future, they will mostly be used for collection or carving jewelry and objects. If they can be used to upgrade the space, it is obviously more cost-effective than just using them for collection!

And she only needs 50 jin (25 catties) of meat, she still has 14 jin (7 catties) left!

After she pressed the "Confirm" button, the red light on the control panel quickly disappeared, and then a line of large green text appeared: "Congratulations! Space upgrade successful!"

Qin Suisui searched the control panel for a long time but couldn't find any small text notifications. Where exactly was the upgrade? Why was it so quiet?

However, she soon discovered it.

After the green text disappeared, Qin Suisui immediately noticed that in addition to the original "Planting," "Harvesting," and "Slaughtering" buttons, the control panel now included buttons such as "Automatic Feeding," "Automatic Collection," "View Animal Quantity/Type," and "View Plant Quantity/Type."

She clicked "View Animal Quantity/Types," and the control panel quickly displayed a clear table and icons showing the number of cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, seafood, and other animals she currently owned.

You wouldn't believe it until you look! She now has 45 sheep, 28 cattle, 5 dairy cows, 2 pigs, 82 chickens, 79 ducks, and the amount of seafood is naturally much larger than when she first threw it in. Even the dozen or so crayfish she casually tossed in earlier are now marked and have grown to hundreds...

Oh, right, there was also a black bear and a yellow-throated marten.

Qin Suisui watched as the two large yellow and black animals kept jumping around in front of her, and desperately tugged at her clothes to pull her outside, as if she wanted her to go outside and see them.

Qin Suisui didn't bother with the other buttons and hurriedly followed the two little ones out of the factory. Only then did she realize, wow! There was actually a mountain about three or four hundred meters high behind the waterfall. She had been curious about where the waterfall in her space came from, but there was always a faint white mist floating behind the waterfall, so she couldn't see anything clearly. The waterfall was too high for her to climb, so she had never paid attention to it.

It was only then that I realized there was actually a mountain behind the waterfall!

The waterfall already had a considerable flow of water, but now it's clearly even larger, cascading down the mountain with a more majestic sound.

The deep pool beneath the waterfall has also doubled in size, and the water has changed from its original emerald green to a deep blue, exactly the same color as the sea.

The stream flowing from one corner of the pool has also been widened to twice its original width, as if to prevent her from being unable to cross, and a curved wooden bridge has been built across the stream.

At this moment, Big Yellow and Big Black were no longer paying attention to her and ran happily to the stream to drink water.

Qin Suisui also noticed the difference. She walked to the upper reaches of the stream, where she had blocked off the area with a wooden gate, specifically for fetching water. The gate was also to prevent chickens and ducks from running into the stream and polluting the water.

Qin Suisui scooped up a handful of water and put it in her mouth. She immediately noticed that the stream water tasted even clearer than before. After taking a sip, she could clearly feel a warm and soothing sensation in her body. It seemed that the effects of the stream water had also been upgraded!

She was happily running around in her space when she suddenly heard the little white ball outside bark. She quickly left the space and just then heard a knock at the front door.

Qin Suisui rushed to the front door to see what was happening. It was Xiaohua knocking on the door. As soon as she saw her open it, Xiaohua shouted anxiously, "Aunt Suisui, quick! Zanzan got hit by Pangqiu! Xiaoli is protecting him there! You have to go!"

"What?! Was the beating severe?"

Qin Suisui didn't care about anything else. Fortunately, when she selected the stones, she had already moved the waste stones out of the space with one click. Of the more than 800 stones, the difference of more than 50 missing stones was not noticeable.

Qin Suisui pushed the bicycle parked in the yard out, locked the door, and drove Xiaohua to the nearby grove.

The grove where the children dug for wild vegetables was located between the Guangmingding Brigade and the family compound. It was smaller and had fewer trees than the grove in front of Guangmingding, and the grove was not as dense, making it relatively safer. Therefore, in addition to the children from the family compound, children from nearby brigades often came here to play.

Qin Suisui pedaled quickly and arrived in two minutes. Before she even got close, she heard a series of children arguing, accompanied by a few loud cries.

She was startled and ran over there without even parking her bicycle properly, fearing that Zan Zan had been bullied. She had seen Zan Zan playing with other children before, and they were mostly five years old and older, with fewer three or four-year-olds. Zan Zan was one of the younger ones.

As she got closer, Qin Suisui immediately spotted the "fat ball" that Xiaohua had mentioned. There was no other reason than that the child really was as fat as a ball. In comparison, other children looked like bean sprouts, too thin and small!

Especially her family's bean sprouts, whose hair was a mess, clothes were torn, and there were several bloodstains on their faces. They were looking down like angry little lions, about to rush towards the fat ball, but were stopped by Xiao Li and could not get past.

The chubby boy, holding Zan Zan's little water bottle, pointed at him and said in an extremely arrogant tone, "Come here! You dare to hit me if you dare! You unwanted little brat! You dare to steal my wild vegetables!"

"Who are you talking about, this unwanted brat?"

“Of course, I mean the unwanted little brat…” Fatty Ball casually picked up where Qin Suisui left off, but only halfway through his sentence did he realize that the voice was wrong. He turned his head and saw a beautiful older sister wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and military-style knee-length shorts, with her arms crossed, looking at him with a smile.

What's frightening is that, at such a young age, he actually saw a murderous intent in the older sister's beautiful eyes!

"Fatball! Who gave you permission to bully people here!" A familiar voice came from behind. Qin Suisui turned around and raised her eyebrows when she saw who it was.
