Because her husband had poisoned a county magistrate and been sent to prison, the Lu family feared being implicated. Shang Wan was cast out with nothing to her name; not only was she penniless, but she also had a one-year-old baby crying to be fed, and two loyal servants who were completely lost. They settled in a thatched cottage, only to find the roof leaked light, the walls leaked wind, mice ran everywhere, and their food supplies were completely exhausted. It looked as though they were about to starve to death. Shang Wan declared there was no need to panic. Picking up a basket, she entered the mountains. Wild chickens, wild rabbits, and small fish—everything came straight into her bowl. When bullies came knocking or her in-laws tried to suck her blood, Shang Wan rolled up her sleeves and dealt with them one by one, operating on the principle of "if you can use your hands, don't use your mouth." With her spatial dimension and spiritual spring, she grew medicinal herbs and provided a one-stop service: opening shops, organizing merchant caravans, and establishing business brands. Bandits blocking the road? Shang Wan: Beat them! Mountain bandits robbing? Shang Wan: Beat them! Unfair competition? Shang Wan: Keep beating them! "Don't bully Mother!" Little Yuanyuan charged forward on short little legs, kicking a seven-foot-tall man flying. "Don't tire yourself, my lady. Leave it to your husband." The sickly scholar, possessing the face of a beauty, snapped the neck of the man beneath him without changing his expression, then bent down to wipe the blood splashed on the edge of his shoe. The shoes were a gift from his wife; they couldn't be gotten dirty. The two loyal servants swung their heavy sabers so fast they left afterimages, shouting, "Young Mistress, please rest! Leave it to us!" Having had her work stolen, Shang Wan rubbed her chin. The effects of the spiritual spring water were quite good; keep feeding it! Everyone: Please leave us a way to live!
