After her family property is seized and her younger brother is beaten, the simple-minded Li Haitang suddenly comes to her senses and gains a Spirit Spring Space.
She saves her brother and takes back their courtyard. The wasteland won’t grow crops? She’ll turn it into the most fertile farmland in the whole village.
The seeds are shriveled and won’t sprout? She’ll grow the sweetest fruit in her space.
When famine drives people from neighboring villages to flee, everyone in her village has grain overflowing from their storehouses, and her missing parents are found, too.
Her younger brother passes the imperial exams and becomes the top scholar. When she arrives in the capital, everyone is clamoring for Haitang fruit, but there’s none to be had.
The Empress Dowager, the scheming prime minister, and even the weather with its own agenda all show up at her home.
“Haitang, I’m getting on in years. I may not have many chances left to eat this, so why not give it to me first this time?”
“Mother, you’re in excellent health. I, on the other hand, can barely sleep at night from worrying over state affairs.”
“Ever heard of first come, first served?” The prime minister jumped up and gave them both a sound beating.
