Liu Aiguo immediately released Zhuang Feifei. Zhuang Feifei was heartbroken, as if she had fallen into hell. Li Hongying had finally succeeded. At this moment, she could no longer feel the pain in her neck and collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud.
Looking at Li Hongying on the ground, Liu Aiguo subconsciously reached out to hug her: "Mom, I'll take Hongying home."
Liu's mother glared at him: "Why do you care about a traitor like her?"
“But Hongying is my wife. No matter what, she's a member of the Liu family.”
"Alright, alright, take her home. Without her, who will sleep in your bed with you? Take her back so I can settle the score with her when she wakes up. This woman deserves to be taught a lesson. If we don't show her what's what, she'll think we're easy to mess with and won't respect me, her mother-in-law, at all."
Under Zhuang Feifei's dazed and unfocused gaze, Liu Aiguo picked up the unconscious Li Hongying and left with his mother.
After they left, Zhuang Feifei slowly came to her senses. The first thing she did was subconsciously raise her hand to check the red mole on her collarbone.
But what she touched was something cold, smooth, and hard. She grabbed it and was able to hold it in her hand.
It turns out that the red mole on her collarbone had really turned into a bloodstone pendant. Its blood-red color was like a bright red glass. If you looked closely, you could almost see the flowing blood patterns on it, as if it were a living stone.
It is exactly the same size and shape as when she bought this bloodstone in modern times. The only difference is that when she bought it in modern times, its surface was dead and unchanged, but now it is lively, as if it has come to life.
It must have become like this after being nourished by blood.
The mole eventually detached her completely from her body.
So what about the space within her?
Has it returned to this stone, or has it already been taken away by Li Hongying, or perhaps it is still on her?
With these three questions in mind, she got up, closed the door, bolted it, and went back into the house with the bloodstone.
She first tried to enter her own space, but after a couple of attempts, she found that she couldn't enter at all, which proved that her space had also been separated from her.
So, where exactly did the space go?
She glanced at the bloodstone in her palm again, frowning and pondering for a moment.
After she dripped her blood onto the bloodstone to signify her ownership, the bright red stone became a mole growing on her collarbone. Following this logic, if her spatial dimension had already been transferred to Li Hongying's body, then the bloodstone, as the medium for storing that space, should also have been transferred to Li Hongying's body.
Conversely, if the bloodstone is still in her possession, then her space should have returned to the bloodstone, rather than being directly transferred to Li Hongying's body.
Of course, the possibility that the space has been bound by Li Hongying cannot be completely ruled out, but she felt that her first guess was much more likely than the second.
She was very unwilling to lose such a magical space. After much thought, she decided to bind the blood stone to her again, hoping that if the space was still inside, it could return to her.
Without hesitation, she bit one of her fingers and dripped blood onto it.
One drop, two drops, three drops, four drops in total, and she still couldn't sense the existence of the space.
She continued to drip a few more drops, but it still had no effect.
I don't know if it's because I can't bind it again, or if the space is really no longer on this bloodstone.
She stayed at home for a while. Anyway, she could no longer get this space. If the space was still on the bloodstone, she didn't want anyone else to get it, especially Li Hongying.
Li Hongying is currently unconscious. If she wakes up and finds that she has no spatial ability, she might try to take the bloodstone from him.
After careful consideration, she made a decision.
She wanted to throw away this bloodstone, to a place where no one could find it.
Backed by mountains, the most suitable place here is a deep mountain valley. It would be even better if there were water in the valley; if you were thrown in there, no one would be able to find you.
She put the bloodstone pendant into her inner pocket, looked around before leaving, and walked out the door as if guarding against a thief, heading towards the mountain.
In the collective distillery, Luo Jingyan and Uncle Li poured a basin of soaked sweet sorghum into a steamer.
"Uncle Jiu, I have to go to the county town today, so the rest of the work is yours again."
"You've already finished your own work. These are all mine. You don't need to worry about me. Go on."
"Um."
Luo Jingyan untied the apron from her waist, straightened her clothes, and walked out of the winery.
All her belongings were in her spatial dimension, so she didn't need to go home; she could just take the oxcart directly.
When she arrived at the village entrance, there were already four or five people sitting on the oxcart. Not long after she got on, the oxcart was full of people. Grandpa Zhang swung his whip and struck the ox's back. The old ox mooed and then ran off on all fours.
When Zhuang Feifei passed by the winery, she turned her head to take a look inside because her nemesis was there. She didn't see Luo Jingyan, but she wasn't too upset and continued walking up the mountain.
After arriving in the county town, Luo Jingyan first found a place to take out the glove from her spatial storage, then took out some steamed cakes, and then carried them to the Qin family.
Today, in order to celebrate Grandma Qin's birthday, Qin Zhenzhen took a day off from work. Qin's eldest sister-in-law, Lin Shuangshuang, is more than nine months pregnant and has been granted maternity leave by the factory. She is staying at home to await delivery. Others will also come back at noon to celebrate Grandma Qin's birthday.
