“Oh, dad, we have quite a few courtyards now and the area is quite expanse. We will need more manpower to help maintain this new place of ours. Can you send a letter to the officials of Qing’an Province and have them send some good help over? Preferably they have already been trained. We don’t have the time to hand hold each of them after their arrival!”
“Xiao Xiao, are you sure about that?” asked Cheng Biyuan, baffled. He didn’t expect her daughter to have asks from the officials.
“Sure! Sure!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao. She would not have said that in the past. But since the dimension has the ability to make others recognize her as their mistress, she was confident that even spies for others would be converted.
Cheng Biyuan was a bit surprised at his daughter’s words, but he has a lot of faith in her so he nodded and said, “If Xiao Xiao think that’s acceptable, let’s do it. I will send the officials a letter first thing tomorrow and have them send us some helps. By the way, how many do you want them to send?”
“Well, you will have to ask mom!” Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t well verse with something like that. After all, she never had experience managing a large family like this.
Mrs. Cheng gave it some serious thoughts and said, “Our family are not big, but we have a lot of guests. We will need a lot of headcount. I think at least a hundred!”
“A hundred?” frowned Cheng Biyuan, “If we are going to recruit people, let’s get a few more all at the same time so we won’t have to worry about it again any time soon. I am thinking sixty maids and sixty male servants. That should be enough!”
“Okay, that works too!” Mrs. Cheng agreed without further comments.
With that one statement, the Cheng’s would add a hundred head counts shortly.
Cheng Xiao Xiao felt a little uncomfortable. Could that be a bit overboard?
What she didn’t know was that a hundred or so servants for a family with a noble title was not a lot. A normal large family could easily have several hundreds of servants.
Even though she felt that the number of headcounts was a little bit overboard, but she did not disagree with her parent’s decision. Plus she was aware that her family is getting bigger, and they would need more help around.
“Dad, mom, I plan on starting a herbal field. It will be dedicated specifically for medicinal herbs!”
In truth, she had already stockpiled quite a bit of precious medicinal herbs in the dimension. The whole idea of having a medicinal herb field was so she could sell them. Otherwise her inventory would continue to increase and it’d be difficult for her to exchange them for money.
Cheng Biyuan didn’t know that his daughter’s dimension had already stockpiled a whole lot of medicinal herbs. Baffled, he asked, “Xiao Xiao, you want to grow medicinal herbs now? Is that really necessary? We are in no shortage of money right now.”
“Dad, I understand that we have no shortage of money. Don’t worry, I will take care of the medicinal herb field myself!” Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t want to elaborate too much about it; after all, there are many servants living with them now.
Cheng Biyuan frowned again, but before he could say anything else, Mrs. Cheng chimed in with uncertainty, “Xiao Xiao, that will be a lot of work. We are not worry about money or food now. There’s no need for a girl to do all that. Even if you want to grow medicinal herbs, why don’t you wait for us to recruit some people who has experiencing growing them to help you out?”
“Mom, dad, don’t worry. I will make any necessary arrangements!” Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled, her look determined.
Cheng Biyuan and his wife exchanged a look and had no choice but to nod.
That night, Cheng Xiao Xiao went into the dimension after she had retired to her room.
As soon as she had entered the dimension, she noticed the difference right away.
It was bigger. It looked to be 1/3 bigger than it used to be.
If the dimension was like a small town before, it is like a big town now. Other than the hundreds or so field that was immediately in front of her, even the grass fields farther away was much broader than it used to be.
“Hehe, Young Mistress, are you so happy that you are speechless? Little Yuteng gigglex as she flew over and looked at Cheng Xiao Xiao who couldn’t stop looking around.
Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded lightly and, with a happy look on her face, asked, “How many levels did we go up?”
“Hehe, Young Mistress, you’d never guess. This time we went up 5 levels; we are now at level 51. Hahaha….” Laughed the little fairy.
Upon hearing her voice, Cheng Xiao Xiao felt something was off. Little Yuteng’s voice seemed to be louder; she didn’t remember it used to be so loud and clear.
She looked closer at her. She felt that she was different than before, but couldn’t quite figure out what was different about her. With the exception that she seemed more radiating than before, the rest were….
Cheng Xiao Xiao continued to study little Yuteng while having her index finger on her own chin. By now, even little Yuteng had a hard time maintaining her smile. She blinked curiously and asked, “Young Mistress, why are you looking at me like that? You are making me feel shy !”
“Shy?” Cheng Xiao Xiao laughed at her, “I think not, but you seemed to have grown a little bit, am I right? You can grow up, little Yuteng?!”
It was somewhat of a silly question but she asked it anyway. After all, she didn’t know a whole lot about fairies. Theoretically, they would be able to grow up.
“Young Mistress, you noticed? Hehe, have I become prettier?” Little Yuteng laughed as she clutched her own cheeks.
Oh, so she was also showy. Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and said, “Not bad, quite cute if I may add!”
“And pretty!” protested little Yuteng.
Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but chuckled and nodded. At the same moment, he smelled a different fragrant and stopped smiling. He took a few whiff and asked, “What is this fragrant, little Yuteng. The dimension didn’t use to have this smell, right?”
As she was saying that, she started looking around for the source of the fragrant. When she spotted the crystal fruit tree, her eyes beamed and she asked excitedly, “It bloomed? It really did?”
Quickly she walked over to the tree, where all this buds from before had turned into white and translucent flowers; there were like crystals that made one’s eyes glued to them.
“Such refreshing fragrance with such sparkling blossom. It was indeed very unique!”
“Of course, Young Mistress. After the dimension has levelled up, I could see that the flower buds got bigger and bigger and finally became full on blossom!”
“Great! That’s wonderful! They are finally blooming!” Cheng Xiao Xiao reached out to touch one of the flowers and a sense of coolness flowed from her fingertips. “Why are they chill to the touch?”
“This is the special characteristics of the crystal fruit tree!” Little Yuteng flew and sat on a tree branch before picking another flower and shoved it into her mouth.
Cheng Xiao Xiao stared at her and said, “You are not going to eat all the flowers, are you? I thought you were going to wait for the fruits?”
“Heheh, don’t worry. I won’t eat all the flowers, Young Mistress. Even if I don’t eat these flowers, not all of them will grow into fruits. Only a portion of them will. Don’t you worry, I knew exactly which ones will grow into fruits and which ones won’t. I only need the ones that won’t.”
“It works like that?” But remembering that little Yuteng was, after all, a plant fairy, perhaps it’s only natural that she’d possess this ability.
