Chapter 12

~8 min read 1,539 words

After Li Mingguang moved everything from the car into the house, he went to the kitchen to find Wangjie and rummaged through the warehouse for a long time, finally finding a vat that could be used to brew wine.

People who know how to brew grape wine think it's simple, while those who don't know the craft think it's very difficult.

For Shen Man, however, it was simple.

Wash the wine vat clean and let it dry; the inner wall couldn't have raw water...

In short, she went back to her room to tinker.

The guest Elder Lu invited arrived on time to deliver the train ticket, and the two talked briefly. Soon, the day Shen Man was to leave was set for 10:00 AM the day after tomorrow.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuemei's uncomfortable mood finally improved.

Endure for one more day; once Shen Man left, her daughter would be worry-free!

In the second-floor bedroom, Shen Man slowly washed the fresh grapes, picking out the complete ones and weeding out the ones with poor quality or broken skin.

"Master, I saw it. The energy in the chest of that person named Li Mingguang is green. This person is full of vitality and upward-looking.

That Zhang Xuemei, the energy in her chest is dark blue; this person has a bad heart, and there are signs of lesions in her organs."

"Then what about my grandfather?"

"The energy in your grandfather's chest has a faint gold, mainly white, and he will live to be a hundred."

"What is golden energy?"

"Golden energy is merit, the embodiment of destiny."

"Merit?"

Shen Man couldn't see energy, but according to Tangyuan's explanation, she guessed that the golden energy on her grandfather should have been accumulated during the years he killed the little devils (Japanese invaders).

Otherwise, why would they say killing the little devils could increase one's lifespan?

"Yes, the ancestor said that the spiritual energy of this world will become thinner and thinner, and people of destiny will also have their destiny weakened. Destiny is not fixed on one person; it can be on multiple people..."

Tangyuan explained to its master while catching the grapes its master threw, using its own understanding.

"No wonder you said at the beginning that the space artifact left by the Lu ancestor, besides the Lu family bloodline, could also be opened by someone with great destiny."

Shen Man understood. In the original book, Lu Manman was naturally the well-deserved female lead; besides the male lead, her destiny value was the strongest.

It's just that she wasn't of the Lu family bloodline, so in the original book, after the female lead obtained the space artifact, she could only open part of the permissions, and the spirit didn't even appear...

"Master, once the space recognizes a master, unless the master is in life-threatening danger, no one can separate the master from the space.

Master can rest assured; Tangyuan will protect you and accompany you to the end of your life."

Tangyuan obediently exposed its belly, trusting its master with its whole heart.

The ball of energy in the master's heart was pale purple, surrounded by faint gold. It had lived for thousands of years, and only the Lu ancestor had such a situation.

So it had doubts that the master was the reincarnation of the Lu ancestor!

It was just that it involved the ancestor's information, so it was restricted and couldn't say it, couldn't talk about it.

"Thank you~"

Shen Man definitely felt Tangyuan's loyalty and trust and didn't dwell on this topic anymore.

She opened a bag of chicken cake on the table and hugged Tangyuan onto the table, "Eat, I'll brew the wine first."

"Awoo, Master, you are so good. I'm willing to be your pet for a lifetime!"

Tangyuan's true form was a majestic white tiger; now, as a kitten cub the size of a palm, only cuteness remained.

Shen Man happened to be a sucker for this; she had no resistance to fluffy things, so naturally, she doted on it.

In fact, when she first transmigrated, she was very terrified.

She was unfamiliar with the place, had to play the role of a newly orphaned girl, and had to mourn for three years.

The neighbors all thought she was suddenly orphaned and had no one to rely on, so she became silent.

In fact, she didn't have the original body's memories!

She was afraid of saying too much and being exposed!

After the original body hit puberty, her appearance became more and more eye-catching. No matter how low-key she was, there would be male classmates confessing with red faces, and ill-intentioned people following her home, wanting to take advantage of her.

The neighbors could help her for a while, but not for a lifetime.

So as soon as the mourning period was over, she packed her belongings, took simple luggage, and came to the Capital to join her biological father.

She didn't care about fatherly love; she just wanted to find a good place to belong, to avoid being coveted by villains, being treated as goods, and being picked at by others.

In her past life, she had had enough of being picked at and being treated as goods by her parents to be arranged for blind dates!

From the beginning of junior high school, there were male classmates confessing to her, and her parents taught her that girls should have self-respect and self-love and couldn't date early.

In college, someone pursued her, and her parents demanded that she return to her hometown after graduation, couldn't marry far away, and the man's family conditions and personal conditions couldn't be bad!

After graduating and returning home, her parents demanded that she take the civil service exam or work in a hospital in her hometown, and she had to go on blind dates in her hometown.

Unwilling? Refuse?

Her parents didn't use moral kidnapping; they threatened her with their lives!

Her aunts and uncles took turns to PUA her, saying that it wasn't easy for her parents to raise her, and which girl in the relative's family had gone to college?

And her parents not only supported her through college but also supported her to study abroad!

Time after time, year after year, she became numb.

Following her parents' wishes, she took the civil service exam in her hometown, worked in her hometown, was filial by her parents' side, listened to their arrangements for blind dates, and became the "good girl" in their eyes...

It was like meat on a chopping board, left for blind date partners to pick and for parents and relatives to bargain over.

Thinking about it now, she was depressed and somatized at that time.

It wasn't until that day, during a blind date, that she saw the drama of a "main wife" tearing apart a "mistress," and she was fascinated.

If only she could be as brave as the sister downstairs, holding this psychology, her mind suddenly cleared; she didn't want to go on blind dates anymore!

She didn't want to be a "good girl" anymore; she didn't want to be her parents' puppet!

Whoever PUAs her again, she would either go crazy or go mad; the main point was that no one should have a good time!

Pity, she hadn't awakened for more than a few seconds, hadn't stood up and turned over to sing, when she fell from the sixth floor and died...

Rebirth was good; living a new life, getting rid of the past, and starting over with a new identity was so good.

Although she transmigrated into a vicious supporting character, her parents divorced when she was very young, her mother had passed away, and no one on her biological father's side knew the original body's temperament.

Three years were enough to change the neighbors' inherent impression of the original body, and enough for her to raise herself again and no longer be depressed.

She lived carefully for those three years without a golden finger, relying on the family fortune left by her maternal grandfather and mother.

Pity that in this era, one couldn't take the college entrance exam. After finishing high school, she had no more books to read. After thinking about it, she joined her biological father. If the betrothed's character was okay and his appearance wasn't bad, she would go along with it.

Marrying first and loving later was a feature of this era; many people were like this, and she could be too.

If she really couldn't cultivate love, that was fine; anyway, love ended up like that in the end.

Having a child and leaving the father, having a child was also fine.

After getting the golden finger, she was actually afraid it was a system. People who had read system novels knew that systems had conditions and purposes for making hosts work.

She still remembered that when she was in junior high and high school, the novel her deskmate read was the kind of abusive text that dug out hearts and lungs and ancestral graves, leaving a psychological shadow from then on.

Fortunately, fortunately, her spirit was cute, and the space was bigger than the one the female lead once obtained...
