Chapter 118: Upgrade Complete

  Ever since Zhao Tong got married, good things have been happening in the family non-stop. Although the old man says he's feeling more relaxed, he's actually delighted and hasn't stopped humming a little tune every day during his morning exercises. The wrinkles on his face have even smoothed out.

  Song Jie was speechless, looking at the little Li rubbing against her feet, thinking that she and Li were still dependent on each other.

  The old man went for his morning exercise, and she also followed the pattern of fishing for three days and sunbathing for two days. Today, she just didn't feel like going. Mr. Zhao didn't force her either, as long as she was healthy, it was fine. She could occasionally exercise without having to go every day.

  Song Jie was delighted to have some free time, and since no one was home, she habitually used her spiritual power to probe the space, but then she froze in surprise - the space had actually opened up.

  She also didn't know what kind of upgrade the space had become, and she suddenly felt a little itchy in her heart.

  She walked back to her bedroom, locked the door and window, and flashed into space. The scene in front of her was shocking, and it had indeed changed greatly.

  The spiritual energy inside was already very dense before the space upgrade, but it didn't expect to become even more dense after the upgrade. It's almost as if there has been a substantial progress and change.

  As I looked around, a majestic high mountain appeared in the distance, with lush green plants on it that almost dyed half of the sky green.

  The arable black land has expanded by several hundred mu, and even the barren land looks pleasing to the eye. From now on, you can plant whatever you want without worrying about the limited space.

  The small river that originally ran through the middle has become a wide and large river, and walking upstream along the river will lead to a waterfall on a mountain. Although I don't know where the source of this water is, it's definitely not without origin.

  Looking at the greatly changed space, Song Jie felt a refreshing sensation in her mind, and even the air smelled sweeter.

  It's just that the space has lost a bit of its vitality, although there are some chickens and ducks that were bought before. But it's still too empty, maybe in the future when there's an opportunity, some animals can be raised inside, after all, there's already a big mountain now.

  This time the expansion of space is not as simple as one plus one equals two. Now, if several more houses are added, it will be like a small mountain village.

  Looking at the big mountain in front of her, Song Jie thought of the big mountain in Xiao Zhang Village before, which was also towering and majestic. She had an extra affection for the mountain in front of her.

  These things all belong to her. Just thinking about it makes her feel a sense of belonging. Not everyone is lucky enough to have their own space, thanks to her ancestors eight generations ago.

  After visiting her own space, Song Jie nodded in satisfaction. En. Not bad, not bad. But she always felt that she had forgotten something, what was it...

  This person is prone to anxiety when he forgets something, Song Jie is like this, obviously had an impression before, how could she have forgotten? She was so anxious that she turned around in circles, and it was painful to think about it.

  She spun around in space a few times and stopped at the outer edge of the space house. She slapped her forehead, oh dear, she had forgotten the most important thing.

  Space can be upgraded. The main reason is that those few lotus seeds bought are quite effective in bringing about such a huge change.

  Arriving at the Spirit Spring Pool, the river water had clearly risen, but the Spirit Spring Pool hadn't changed in the slightest, still as clear and calm as ever.

  The biggest difference is that a red lotus has bloomed in the Spirit Spring. Not an ordinary pink lotus, but a true red lotus, as enchantingly beautiful as a fiery red lotus, as if it had magical powers.

  The lotus next to it echoes with it, leaning against each other, like a pair of sisters.

  At first, Mingming threw out several lotus seeds, but unexpectedly only one sprouted. Thinking about it, this red lotus is so extraordinary, how could it possibly grow in batches? Being able to bloom with just one flower is already very difficult.

  Watching the lotus bloom with abandon, Song Jie pondered for a long time and still couldn't find any hidden meaning. The fact that her personal space was upgraded because of a single lotus flower was already unbelievable, let alone if the lotus flower was some kind of heavenly treasure.

  At first, the ancestors didn't leave any information about this lotus flower, so Song Jie still doesn't know what its use is. Can it only be used to upgrade space? Thinking about it, that's not very likely either.

  For space, she doesn't understand that there is still so much more, and there are too many things to continue exploring. Song Jie is not in a hurry either, she has time to come slowly, even if it's unknown, the estimated impact won't be too big.

  The most important thing she knew was that the space upgrade required a lotus seed with a large amount of spiritual energy, and it might be the seeds of different colored lotus flowers.

  Good things are hard to come by, and everything still depends on luck. Fortunately, Song Jie is magnanimous and not the kind of person who pursues things to the end, so let's just go with the flow.

  She flashed out of the space and immediately felt the difference between the outside world and the space. The air outside was already somewhat polluted, smelling it made people feel a bit suffocated, and it took some time to get better. This was all because the spiritual energy in the space was too abundant.

  After adapting for a while outside, Song Jie finally returned to normal. To be honest, not having space was really inconvenient in daily life, just like missing a backpack, it was always troublesome to carry things.

  The space has finally been upgraded, and she can also be considered to have settled a heart affair.

  Today is already August 18th, and there are only ten days left before school starts. The happy days are always so short-lived, and I'll be caught in the birdcage again.

  A week before the start of school, Song Jie notified the members of the study group to gather again. This time, she gave all four people the same test paper without distinction.

  After finishing the test papers, Song Jie checked everyone's and found that they all made progress to varying degrees. This time, they will all pass the opening exam.

  Meng Kang hasn't helped out with the family stall since Ma Yun joined Xintong Electronics as an accountant. He's bought new clothes and looks more spirited, and he no longer hesitates to speak his mind about his own family, having gained confidence.

  Ma Yun got help from Zhao Tong and was able to pay some wages in advance, her husband's leg also improved, and the whole family regained its vitality.

  Song Jie felt very happy in her heart, she had helped others and seeing them doing well made her feel a sense of secret delight.

  Until now, Ma Yun still thought that Zhao Tong had casually heard about his affairs and recruited her, without the slightest suspicion. As for Meng Kang, it was even more impossible to think of this.

  No matter how unwilling you are to go to school, time waits for no one, and September is still the start of a new semester.

  Class teacher Li stood on the podium with a beaming smile, not only were the students on holiday, but the teachers were also on holiday. Apart from arranging some homework, everything else was about the study group she had arranged for during the summer vacation.

  As soon as the study group was formed, some students lost interest. Nowadays, kids of this age have no self-control and can't even think about studying. Originally, students who studied well and those who didn't couldn't get along, they met once or twice during study sessions but never attended again.

  At first, Teacher Li's threat to call the parents had long since dissipated, and these classmates were having so much fun that no one remembered the original warning.

  Teacher Li saw that these classmates were all a bit ashamed, and suddenly knew what was going on. She couldn't force this group of people to study, nor could she follow behind them with a whip in hand, so she could only secretly shake her head.

  Fortunately, there is still one day left, the exam will only start tomorrow, and it's still possible to pray for a miracle. All classmates started to bow their heads and review, feeling a sense of urgency.

  This exam wasn't decided by Teacher Li himself, but rather every grade level has to participate. It's so that these students don't fall behind too much in their studies and also to see how everyone is doing.

  Zou Meng and the others were also studying with their heads down, but they just flipped through the book casually. They had plenty of confidence, and this holiday was not wasted in vain. Moreover, there was Song Jie, the top student in the grade, to guide them, and it would be unjustified if they didn't do well on the exam.

  It's not easy to get into a state of learning immediately, many students have decided to pull an all-nighter tonight, and some think that if they didn't study well, others may not necessarily do well either, and it's possible that they won't do well on the exam too, harboring a lucky psychology.

  It was like this, and there wasn't a bit of the relaxed feeling from the first day of elementary school, instead everyone was quietly studying with their heads down.

  Seeing that the classmates in the class are all studying, whether it's a holiday or not, they still need to relax a bit, Teacher Li is not an unreasonable person, everything is for the sake of letting these children learn better.

  Song Jie's studies are very solid. During the summer vacation, she helped others with their homework and reviewed her lessons again. At this time, she didn't need to cheat anymore, and it was enviable how carefree she was.

  The next day still came, and many classmates were wearing two black eye circles, which looked like they hadn't slept well.

  This exam is not like the final exam, where every subject is tested. Instead, only a few main subjects were selected for testing, and the time was not as abundant as during the finals, with each subject having only one hour of testing time.

  These are all normal, usually no one will give you such a long time to do the test paper.

  The examination room is full of all sorts of people, some clutching their ears and scratching their cheeks, others lowering their heads to write hastily, and still others sneaking peeks at others. Each person has their own way.

  In fact, what classmates do in the exam room is clearly seen by the teacher on stage, only those who think they are smart will think that the teacher hasn't noticed.

  Time is very tight, each subject has two papers, and after finishing the time is almost gone, leaving only a little time for checking. Fortunately, it's not a very formal exam, basically you can see the level of each classmate.

  Everyone in Song Jie's study group answered smoothly, and after each subject was finished, there were classmates complaining that they had accidentally answered some questions incorrectly, or something like that, and they had already seen this question before.

  The other four people gathered around Song Jie after finishing each subject, saying how well they did, and the difference was obvious at a glance.
