An Jiuyue pursed her lips and replied, “I’m only exchanging the points for the token. It doesn’t cost much.”
Wei Na was speechless.
Master, don’t you feel guilty saying that? The tokens for reclaiming land and excavating ponds are different. Did I misread? Aren’t 1000 points required for the first pond?
Wei Na muttered, “Master, we only have 1250 points. If you exchange it for a pond excavating token, we’ll be left with 250 points.”
An Jiuyue was surprised.
250 points? Can’t you make that sound a little nicer?
“I can earn one point every month for every fish in the space. I can also grow lotus plants and water chestnuts in the pond, forming a water cycle. I can earn many points every month without much effort. Isn’t that good?”
Wei Na thought that it sounded pretty good too.
Alright then. Let’s just say I was remarking casually, and Master didn’t hear anything.
“Shall we begin now?” it asked.

If she excavates the pond now, she’ll be able to put all the small fish she catches tomorrow into the pond directly. Wonderful!
“Master, didn’t we see some lotus plants and water chestnut leaves at the foot of the mountain? We can gather all of them. There are no seasonal changes in the space, so we can grow them anytime.”
“Okay, we’ll settle that tonight.” An Jiuyue nodded.
…
An Jiuyue dug up and re-planted lotus plants throughout the night. She also brought back a lot of water chestnut leaves. She purchased the water she needed from the Points Mall in her space.
Wei Na was speechless. Water, which could be found everywhere, cost 50 points! It was too expensive!
By the time An Jiuyue was done, it was dawn. She prepared breakfast before descending the mountain to catch more fish.
The villagers catching fish at the foot of the mountain were excited to see An Jiuyue.
After all, she was the one who saved everyone’s lives.
However, some people looked at An Jiuyue with intense hatred in their eyes. One of them was Aunt Kang, who was scolded by the Chief, her sons, and her daughters-in-law when she returned home.
If she had not cried so much and pretended to be pitiful, the Chief would have chased her back to her parents’ home.

Her daughters-in-law, who were initially afraid to breathe loudly in front of her, dared to glare at her openly and even instructed her to do chores.
Her back had been aching every day from the hard work, and no one came to take pity on her.
She felt that it was An Jiuyue’s fault. If An Jiuyue had not come to her house and gotten involved, she would not have been despised so much.

She hated An Jiuyue thoroughly.
Of course, Aunt Wang was also one of those who detested An Jiuyue. Many villagers now treated An Jiuyue as their savior. Meanwhile, she, who had tried to sell An Jiuyue’s son, had become the most wicked person in the village.
She felt that she had done nothing wrong. She did it for An Jiuyue’s sake—she wanted to help her earn a few taels of survival to make ends meet.
She did not expect An Jiuyue to be so ungrateful and force her into a corner. She had been so afraid to leave the house. If not for the sake of survival, she would have been too embarrassed to be seen catching fish in the fields!
