Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 1667: Stay Put Safely

…

“Zhan Beiye, have them fetch water, and gather wood too, the more the better.”

Only after An Jiuyue had almost finished the medicine refinement did Qian Jiyun speak to Zhan Beiye. In fact, there was water in his space ring, and An Jiuyue’s space ring had it too, including wood and such.

But he simply didn’t want to take it out.

Since these guards had nothing to do, he might as well give them some tasks to busy themselves with, fetching water and collecting wood, enough to keep them occupied for a while.

“The more the better?”

Zhan Beiye looked at him, somewhat puzzled by his words, and asked.

“Yes, whenever it’s enough, I’ll tell you to stop,” Qian Jiyun said with a faint curl of his lips.

“As for the water, I don’t care how they store it, just that the more, the better. They aren’t idle, just busy gossiping, so let’s give them even more to do.”

“Alright, got it.”

Zhan Beiye signaled to him.

Now, he understood what was going on; it was intentional.

However, he too felt these guards were too outrageous. Not assigning them tasks was simply not doing justice to Xiang Qiyan’s wounds and poisoning.

“Guaranteed to keep them busy.”

If he couldn’t work them to complete exhaustion, he would no longer be Zhan Beiye.

Not long after, the guards began to get busy, the kind of busy that was wrought with suffering. The water had to be plentiful, but they had nothing to store it in.

So, Su Tang waved his arm grandly, ordering them to chop down those large trees and cut them into sections, hollowing them out to store water.

This task alone caused the guards such misery they didn’t know where to vent their hardships.

They also knew that they were assigned these tasks because they had offended Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue, the couple.

The problem was, they didn’t know what all this was for. Why fetch so much water, gather so much wood? Were they planning to settle down here?

Brother Zhen and the others watched the busy guards, completely stunned.

They were very clear that a large part of the reason the guards were so busy was because of Gu Qingyu’s provocative words among them.

For this, he gave Gu Qingyu another fierce stare.

“Brother, should we also help?” Xuanyuan Zimo came over and asked Brother Zhen.

“No need.”

Brother Zhen shook his head.

He guessed that the guards must have resented them by now. Offering help at this point wouldn’t actually be helping, but rather infuriating them.

They might even get retaliated against if they were not careful. Better to spare himself the trouble.

“If you have time, just gather more medicinal ingredients and cultivate.”

After saying this, he turned to stroll nearby but then, recalling someone, turned back. His icy gaze landed on Gu Qingyu standing to the side.

“Behave yourself, cause any more trouble, and no one will be able to protect you.”

Gu Qingyu shrank her neck in fear upon hearing his words, reluctantly responding.

“I understand.”

She couldn’t fathom why everyone seemed to have a problem with her, while An Jiuyue, who did nothing of real significance, could act with impunity because of those men’s support.

She knew she couldn’t vent the resentment in her heart for now; she would just have to endure it.

…

The next morning.

An Jiuyue had spent almost the entire night refining medicine, producing two types of medicinal powder. As soon as the sunlight began to hit them, she stopped her medicine refinement work.

“Finally, it’s nearly done.”
