CHAPTER 92: CHAPTER 92: BLACK SOIL IN THE SPACE, PREMIUM LAND

Aunt Lin immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Because she noticed that Tang Zan was looking at her with a teasing expression, his eyes even showing a gleam of eagerness.

Obviously, he was just waiting for her to condemn him so that he could legitimately settle accounts with her.

Her arm, which had been struck by Tang Zan, was still hurting, so she dared not say more.

Plus, that cold gaze always made her feel as if she was being watched by some poisonous snake.

At her age, she actually feared her nephew!

Tang Qingrou looked up at Tang Zan: "Zan’er, the people of the main house are all starving to death."

Tang Zan’s tone was icy, his face full of indifference.

"So what?"

Tang Qingrou was about to say more when Aunt Lin covered her mouth and dragged her away.

She could guarantee that if Tang Qingrou spoke, the consequence awaiting her would definitely not be good. Tang Zan was no longer the Tang Zan of the past.

This person was ruthless and cunning, as if possessed by a demon.

Mrs. Li was unwilling, seeing that victory was just around the corner; that wooden door looked unreliable, and if they pushed a little more, they could break through.

Tang Zan naturally saw through her intentions and stood aside with arms folded, looking on with expectation.

Mrs. Li found a meat shield before shouting, "Come on everyone, rush in, and we’ll have something to eat."

With this, Tang Zan shot out a crossbow arrow, pinning it to Mrs. Li’s tooth.

Due to the immense force, the crossbow arrow shattered a whole row of teeth, perfectly lodged at the base of her teeth, making her life hang by a thread.

Seeing Tang Zan being so ruthless, not even sparing his own kin, who would dare go up again?

Tang Zan nodded in satisfaction, coldly addressing Zhang Chao and Ma He, his eyes scanning the faces of the third house’s subordinates, making everyone’s cheeks sting as if being sliced.

"If you’re full, then stand guard, handle any anomalies on your own."

"Our third house isn’t raising useless people."

He said this not only to Zhang Chao and Ma He but to all the third house’s subordinates.

If these people weren’t even a bit aware, almost all of them stood behind Pei Shu’er, following her orders.

However, if even minor issues couldn’t be dealt with by the subordinates, there was no point in keeping them.

Tang Zan stood beside Pei Shu’er: "Let’s go."

Pei Shu’er nodded, following him into the house.

Old Madam Tang hastily asked, "Who is causing trouble?"

Liu Xu sighed, "It’s the people from the main house."

Upon hearing this news, Old Madam Tang angrily tapped the ground with her cane.

"I’ve never seen someone turning the knife on their own brothers like this; what a disgrace to the ancestors."

Thinking of this, Old Madam Tang stood up, trembling with anger.

"I need to teach them what rules mean."

Pei Shu’er was both crying and laughing, knowing how much Old Madam Tang valued rules.

But in this situation, how could you even talk about rules?

There’s a slim chance that if Old Madam Tang went out to teach them rules, she’d be tied up by the main house and exchanged for food later on.

Tang Zan also spoke, "Grandma, outside the crowd is agitated, they’ve already gone mad, if you go out, it will worry your descendants."

Old Madam Tang took a deep breath, barely suppressing her inner irritation, and kept muttering about the unfilial descendants of the main house.

People of the second and fourth houses were especially grateful they had separated from the main house; otherwise, now would be their time of suffering.

That night, aside from celebrating the new dwelling, Pei Shu’er also distributed the previously agreed cement to the second and fourth houses according to labor points.

Receiving their own share of cement, they were delighted.

They hurriedly took their leave, eager to start building houses overnight.

Tang Family members left, and it was time to rest.

Liu Xu smiled and said, "Shu’er and Zan’er can share a room."

The third house had already accepted Pei Shu’er as their daughter-in-law, and given the current situation, there was no condition to hold another wedding ceremony.

Moreover, such a fine daughter-in-law, they really have nothing to nitpick about.

Marrying Pei Shu’er was the good fortune of their third house.

Pei Shu’er smiled shyly, a blush rose to her cheeks, her acting impeccable.

"Mom, how could we, Tang Zan and I haven’t even formally bowed in the ceremony yet."

After saying this, she glanced at Tang Zan, hoping he’d say a good word.

Just letting her sleep in the room next to his was enough, keeping a meter’s distance, they didn’t have to be in the same room.

It’s easy for something to happen when it’s just one man and one woman.

Tang Zan glanced at Pei Shu’er, his thin lips pressed into a line, saying nothing, respecting Pei Shu’er’s wishes.

The rooms had wooden doors, and once the door was closed, Pei Shu’er had the utmost freedom.

Pei Shu’er took out her remodeled soft bedding from her space and laid it down.

The moment she lay down on the bed, Pei Shu’er felt that she had truly come alive again.

The previous days were really not livable, not only exhausting and bitter but also with bad food and poor sleep.

She felt her spine was going to develop calluses from the hard surface she had to sleep on.

During this rare alone time, Pei Shu’er entered her space.

At other times, she would enter the space and not dare linger, grabbing the book and hastily exiting.

Now she finally had a good look around the space.

The space was piled with supplies on all sides, with a white mist in the distance.

Every time Pei Shu’er approached, it felt as if she was blocked by an invisible glass barrier.

The area for storing supplies was divided by her into several sections: a study area, a dining area, an appliance area, a daily necessities area, a clothing area, a beauty area, and an entertainment area.

Some other miscellaneous categories she couldn’t even sort through.

Moreover, Pei Shu’er placed her things as if on store shelves, and when purchasing these items, she went directly to the factories or original locations, acquiring first-hand sources.

So the quality was excellent and comprehensive, also cost-effective.

Pei Shu’er walked around her space, inventorying the supplies.

The ground beneath her feet was also blocked by mist, giving it a soft feel. When Pei Shu’er touched the ground, she found it wasn’t the texture of a glass cover.

Instead, it felt like soil?

She stretched out her hand and scooped up a handful of black soil.

This...

Isn’t this high-quality soil?

Pei Shu’er’s eyes shone with wild joy.

Long had she thought this place had poor soil, and even if she cultivated it, the soil quality might not improve much.

Now with this black earth, Pei Shu’er had no more worries.

But how much black soil was there in this space?

If too much was dug out, would it damage the space’s foundation?

Thinking this, Pei Shu’er picked up a hoe and started digging diligently in the space, but after digging only an inch, she heard a metallic clang.

She reached out, discovering it felt like glass cover material.

It seemed she hit the boundary of the space.

However, the soil at hand was enough for now.

Simultaneously, Pei Shu’er casually scattered a few seeds of fruit trees in the space, planning to check the growth cycle of plants in the space.

She had already decided where to put this soil, to plant some fruit trees within the courtyard walls, with no worry about theft.

The law and order in this exiled land was truly poor, Pei Shu’er didn’t want to make clothes for others.

Unless these people settled down and the beastly nature was stripped away, otherwise, one must stay guarded.

Pei Shu’er took advantage of the darkness, spreading the black soil in the courtyard.

She then went back to sleep, waiting for the day when the courtyard soil would be cultivated well, and delicious fruit trees could be planted the following year.

When everyone woke up, they didn’t notice anything unusual about the soil in the courtyard.

Things went as usual; those who should hunt went hunting, and those seeking food continued seeking.
