She peered intently into the space and was suddenly struck by the fact that the space, which had remained unchanged for years, had suddenly grown larger... by a little bit.
It used to be only one square meter in size, with the spiritual spring in the very center taking up half of the space, so there wasn't much room to put anything there.
Right now, the space looks like it's about four square meters, not very big, but it's enough for now.
Ye Wenxue scanned the space and quickly discovered that the jade pendant was missing. She instantly realized that the jade pendant had prompted the space to advance.
Without further hesitation, Ye Wenxue kept filling her space with dry food, ingredients, and seasonings until she couldn't fit any more in, then she clapped her hands in satisfaction.

Aunt Wang hated Ye Wenxue because of this, thinking that if Ye Wenxue had been well-behaved and helped them find a place to stay, she would not have been abandoned and sold.
