When Wei Lihua was selling vegetables earlier, the procurement officer from their hotel had said her vegetables were excellent.
At the time, after hearing the procurement manager’s quoted price, she hadn’t paid it much mind.
After all, even organic vegetables couldn’t possibly cost five yuan per jin.
Unexpectedly, her wife later came to buy some once, and after tasting them, she truly believed there could be vegetables so delicious.
That’s why everything happened today—she hadn’t cared back then, and now it was too late for regrets.
Just imagine, if they had gotten their hands on such delicious vegetables earlier, their hotel would undoubtedly have reached new heights by now.
Wei Lihua had no idea what was going through his mind; all she could think about now was hurrying home.
Then coming back early tomorrow to try and bring more vegetables.
Otherwise, if she told the buyers she’d stop after the day after tomorrow, they would surely go crazy.
And she believed she’d be even busier then, though the feeling of earning so much money was still pretty good.
Over ten thousand, nearly twenty thousand yuan a day—Wei Lihua felt like money had been practically falling from the sky lately.
But every time she had to work in the Space, she didn’t think that way anymore.
Although the Space wasn’t too small, Wei Lihua still hadn’t raised any small animals inside.
Because she didn’t know if raising small animals in the Space would cause them to become spirits.
Moreover, if she raised small animals in the Space, her vegetables and such would definitely be left with nothing.
She didn’t dare take the risk; right now, she was relying entirely on her vegetables to make money.
After returning home, Wei Lihua counted the money and casually placed it into the Space.
Humming a tune, she took a shower and then busied herself in the kitchen.
Although she craved meat, the thought that meat from outside wasn’t as delicious as the vegetables from the Space made her lose interest in buying any. Lately, she had been eating only vegetables from the Space.
And recently, the variety of vegetables in the Space had gradually increased—not to mention green beans and such, even cucumbers and tomatoes had already ripened.
There were also tender corn, pumpkins, and watermelons that were ready. If it weren’t for the fact that vegetables picked from the Space stayed fresh as they were, Wei Lihua would have been utterly worried.
With so many things in the Space, she hadn’t dared to take them out; she hadn’t even implemented the price increase she had considered earlier.
The most fundamental reason was that Wei Lihua felt her vegetable prices were already high enough.
If she raised them further, although she wouldn’t have to worry about selling them, she didn’t want to be that greedy.
In the past, she might not have believed in karma, but now that she had the Space, she couldn’t afford not to believe.
The Space was already a gift; if she became too obsessed with money, who knew if it might leave her someday!
Even without raising prices, the daily earnings weren’t exactly small.
She was already quite content. Recently, she had only been selling vegetables for a week, and she already had over a hundred thousand yuan in hand. One shouldn’t be too greedy.
Wei Lihua inhaled the aroma from the pot, feeling an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
Looking at the stir-fried tomatoes and eggs, cold cucumber salad, and stir-fried green beans on the table, along with a bowl of rice and two ears of corn—even though the eggs weren’t from the Space, she could still accept them when stir-fried with tomatoes.
However, for now, she couldn’t eat rice or anything from the Space.
First, she hadn’t thought about buying rice seeds at the time, and second, even if she had bought the seeds, she wouldn’t have been able to turn the rice into grains—she didn’t have that much money.
Although the over 100,000 yuan she had on hand now was a considerable amount, compared to what she would need in the future, that money was barely a drop in the bucket. So, she wasn’t in the mood to grow rice or wheat.
But corn was delicious, and tonight she had boiled two ears.
What Wei Lihua didn’t know was that every time she cooked, the aroma wafting through the hallway was absolutely enticing. Many people wanted to knock on her door and ask why her dishes smelled so fragrant. But since they weren’t familiar with her, they felt too embarrassed to ask.
In fact, smelling such aromas during mealtimes was pure torture for those people. However, all of this had nothing to do with Wei Lihua. Even if she knew what they were thinking, she would simply smile and let it go. If they wanted to buy vegetables, she would tell them where to get them. As for anything else, sorry, she wouldn’t say a word.
After finishing dinner, Wei Lihua once again felt stuffed. She patted her slightly rounded belly and slumped into her chair, letting out a contented sigh. This was truly the life, Wei Lihua suddenly thought. Even if she had no money in the future, she would be willing to live like this forever. Isn’t this how life is meant to be lived? The most important things are food, drink, and shelter. She ate food from the Space, and although the place she lived in wasn’t her own, it wasn’t too bad either.
In the future, when she returned home, she would buy a plot of land and build her dream house. Then, she would be completely in charge of her own life. As for clothing, as long as it was comfortable, she would be perfectly satisfied. It seemed her demands weren’t very high, and she didn’t seem to have much ambition either.
Perhaps it wasn’t a coincidence that Zhao Yi had left her. A woman like her probably wasn’t liked by many people, right?
Why was she thinking about him again? Her life was already quite good now. In the future, he and she would be like strangers. Even if they met, it would be better to act as if they didn’t know each other.
Once her stomach felt less bloated, Wei Lihua stood up and began clearing the dishes from the table. Her apartment was quite small—just a tiny room with a kitchen and a bathroom, and nothing else. She could cook in the kitchen, but she had to eat in the bedroom, which also served as the living room. However, thanks to Wei Lihua’s careful arrangement, the small space still felt cozy and warm.
She quite liked this kind of place—living alone was safe and saved money. Although she no longer cared about the high rent now, she had already decided to leave. Even if she felt reluctant, she had to let go.
In the past, she had thought about moving after marrying Zhao Yi. Back then, her mind was filled with how to move all the things in the apartment. Now, she wasn’t worried about the belongings in her room—her Space was so large that she could easily store everything in it. Sometimes, Wei Lihua felt that the Space was the safest thing for activities like murder, arson, or robbery. Although she also knew that she didn’t have the guts for robbery or anything like that.
But the Space was truly very useful. When she had time to travel in the future, it could completely serve as a travel bag.
Moreover, the Space was so convenient. No matter what she wanted to sell later, she could simply put it in the Space without any worries.
The more Wei Lihua thought about it, the more she felt lucky. Although she had encountered a scumbag, when God closes a door, He opens a window for her.
Not to mention that her window was even better than other people’s doors.
Wei Lihua remembered that she would be leaving in a few days. With nothing to do now, she decided to pack up the things in the house.
Everything that could be used would be packed and taken away, while anything unusable would be left for the landlord.
Although she had quite a few belongings, most of them were useful, like the refrigerator and washing machine at home.
At first, she had been reluctant to buy such things.
But as time went on, she gradually added many appliances.
Most of those appliances had been used for a long time. Back then, she didn’t have much money, so she bought them secondhand.
Even though they were secondhand, Wei Lihua planned to take them home. After all, her family didn’t have a washing machine yet.
They didn’t have a refrigerator at home either. In fact, if she had more money on hand, she would have wanted to replace everything with new ones.
But she didn’t dare touch the money she had. Since the items were still usable and she could take them home without much trouble, it was better to move them now.
It would be better to move them from the start anyway, since they could still be used for a while.
When she had more money later, she could just replace them with new ones.
Now wasn’t the time to pack those large items. What she needed to pack now were her clothes and other things.
There were also some miscellaneous items and things she no longer needed, which she could pack right away.
She would only leave a few pieces of clothing, bedding, bowls, and chopsticks at home. Everything else would be packed up.
After selling vegetables on the last day, she could give the tricycle to the landlord and go home.
Oh dear, she had been so focused on packing that she hadn’t even bought the train ticket home yet.
Reluctantly, Wei Lihua had to stop packing and picked up her phone to book a ticket.
After booking the train ticket, she called home.
She had mentioned going home earlier but hadn’t told her family exactly when she would return.
“Hello, Mom, it’s Li Hua!”
As soon as the call connected, Wei Lihua spoke to her mother, Zhang Xiuli, on the other end.
“Li Hua, when are you coming back?”
The child said she was coming back, but she still hadn’t returned home. Her mother was starting to worry.
If she didn’t know that her daughter would call home if anything happened, she would have been anxious already.
“I’ll be back the day after tomorrow, Mom. Don’t worry.”
Wei Lihua rubbed her head. It seemed she had been so focused on making money these past few days that she had completely forgotten about going home.
If she hadn’t been noticed while selling vegetables, she wouldn’t even know when she would have returned!
“Oh, I’ll have your brother pick you up then!”
If she took a bus back to their place, it would cost quite a bit, and it wouldn’t take her directly home—she would still need a ride.
It was really troublesome. Usually, when Wei Lihua went home, her eldest brother would pick her up.
“Alright, my eldest brother can just pick me up in town. I don’t have too many things.”
Wei Lihua had already put those things in the Space. As for the rest, she could just make it look like she had packed them.
“Alright, but if you’re not planning to go back, then if the remaining items are usable, bring them home. However, if they’re large items, don’t bother taking them if it’s inconvenient.”
Zhang Xiuli knew her daughter was frugal, but she worried that this time when her daughter returned home, she wouldn’t be able to carry everything.
“Okay, I’ll just use express delivery then, so it won’t be too troublesome for me when I go home.”
Actually, Wei Lihua understood her mother’s meaning. After all, their family’s conditions weren’t good, and her mother had always been very thrifty.
Even though their family’s situation had improved now, many things were still lacking.
Wei Lihua also wanted to bring those things back. In the past, she definitely wouldn’t have taken them because shipping was too expensive. But now, with such a large Space inside her, there was always room to spare.
This way, bringing those things home was no pressure for Wei Lihua.
“As long as you’re not too tired, it’s fine. But if it costs too much, don’t bother taking them.”
Zhang Xiuli suddenly remembered that if she shipped them, it might not be cost-effective.
“Mom, it’s fine. If it’s not cost-effective, I won’t ship them!”
Anyway, she could store them in her Space without spending a penny. If she didn’t take them and left them for others, she felt a bit reluctant.
“Alright, as long as you arrange it properly. But when you come home, remember to buy something for your little nephews. Nothing too expensive—just a set of clothes each will do.”
