Summer 2013

In a small town in G County of SD province, the trees kept calling out as they got wind of what was going on.

Under such hot weather, Gao Yang, who had just gotten off work at five in the afternoon, was unwilling to ride the bike home under the huge sun.

She didn't rush back to the dorm like her colleagues. She lowered her head and kicked the pebbles on the road in boredom. She wasn't planning to go home today anyways. It was useless rushing back to the dorm so she might as well go slowly!

But considering that her parents might be worried if she didn't go home, she pulled out her cell phone and dialed a familiar number.

The moment the call connected, his mother's familiar voice came from the other end of the line, "Yang Yang, is there something you need?"

When Gao Yang heard his mother's voice, he couldn't help but feel upset.

She actually knew that her mother wanted her to come home a few more times, for either nothing or her marriage.

Her family were all worried. After all, she was twenty-four years old.

In their village, if a twenty-four year old girl still didn't marry, then she would really be a 'leftover girl'. There would really be gossip.

Actually, it wasn't that Gao Yang didn't want to go back, it was just that she really didn't want to get married.

It wasn't that she herself had experienced any emotional betrayal, but that she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take responsibility for her marriage.

Gao Yang remembered that when he was young, his father and siblings were the majority. His grandmother had never seen her for a day.

At that time, when she was still ignorant, she had naively asked her mother, "Why doesn't my grandmother like me? Is it because Yang Yang disobeys me?"

At that time, she was still young, so she didn't know what that lonely, angry and sad expression on her mother's face meant.

When she grew up and learned what the expression on her mother's face meant, she was truly afraid of marriage.

The truth was that the matter was extremely simple. It was just that her grandmother didn't like her parents because her parents had married due to love.

It was because of this that her grandmother often looked for her mother to deal with, and her father could only be troubled on both sides. Gao Yang had grown up in this kind of environment.

The moment her family was about to get married, she immediately thought about the grievances her mother had suffered. She felt that her mother was not worthy of her.

However, she really couldn't tell her family about this. She couldn't tell them that she saw her grandmother making things difficult for her when she was young, right?

The hot weather was one of the reasons she didn't go home today. The most important reason was that she was afraid that when she went home, she would hear endless persuasion from her family.

Is marriage really that good? If she were to meet a grandma like her grandma, who knows if she would go crazy. It would be better if she were two years late!

"I'm not going back today, Mom! It's too hot, I still need to ride for half an hour on the road, I really don't want to go back, otherwise I would definitely turn into dried meat when I get home. "

Gao Yang complained to his mother on purpose, but the truth was, he had a bad feeling about it.

When Gao Ma heard her daughter's words, how could she not know what she meant? Wasn't she afraid of being forced to marry? Seriously, there really wasn't anything to be afraid of!

Besides, didn't she force him now?

"Since you don't want to come back, then stay outside and pay attention to your safety. You must come back in a few days after the weekend."

Gao Yang happily picked up the answer he wanted and kissed the phone: "Mom, I love you the most!"

"Girl, you just know how to pick up a good tune. If you really do love me, then it's better if you settle down early."

"I know, Mom, I won't say anymore. I'm hanging up. I'm going to eat dinner on the street today. Bye bye."

"Alright, let's not talk about you anymore. You have to pay more attention to the cars on the road!" Hearing her mother's words, Gao Yang instinctively nodded his head and said, "I understand!"

Then he hung up.

After getting the answer he wanted, Gao Yang was no longer depressed. He happily ran back to his dorm and changed his clothes.

Today, she was going to buy some things she liked. It had been a long time since she last went shopping. These past few days, she had been home every day and was being talked about by her family.

It had been a long time since she went shopping. She wondered if there was something she liked on the streets!

Gao Yang, riding on her electric bike, arrived at the place where she often ate noodles. He ordered a bowl of beef noodle soup and prepared to have a good meal!

Looking at the green onions, flowers, and cilantro floating in the bowl, Gao Yang felt like drooling.

When she finished eating the ramen noodles with a head full of sweat, Gao Yang felt satisfied.

"Boss, pay!"

Gao Yang waved at the boss of the noodle store and said with a smile.

"Come on, have you finished eating? Come next time!"

The boss of the noodle store smiled as he received the money Gao Yang paid him.

"Alright, I will!"

After paying the bill, Gao Yang pushed her electric car over to their county's pedestrian street.

Some of the stalls here were filled with strange things. Gao Yang liked to come here and play with these little things.

Today, as usual, she had come to this stall to look for something she liked.

Gao Yang had heard that this place sold antiques, but she didn't understand that it was just a place to watch the crowd gather.

As she watched the others pick things out, she happily pulled over to the side of the road.

Squat down to choose a favorite item to wear, anyway the items on the stall is not expensive!

Gao Yang reckoned that the stall didn't have anything to pick up like the novels had described. She looked around and picked out a bracelet with a red rope on it. The bracelet only had a small green stone on it!

It looked similar to the color of the jade Buddha she saw in the mall, but Gao Yang knew that it was glass.

However, Gao Yang found the bracelet pleasing to the eye, so he spent five yuan to buy it and put it on.

After buying the bracelet, he also bought some snacks and fruits.

Although there was no road robbery in this small town of G County, it was not safe for a girl to go out too late!

Besides, Gao Yang's factory was located in the outer ring. Even though it wasn't a very remote place, he still felt it was better to return home early. If something happened, he would regret it too late.

Gao Yang rode her electric bike back to the dorm and put away her car. She carried her snacks and prepared to put them away first, ready to eat the fruits later.

Seeing the fruit, Gao Yang felt like he had a cancer attack and didn't want to wash it.

Forget it, she was just lazily preparing to peel and eat. She excitedly found the skinning knife that she kept in a drawer!

Perhaps it was because her luck was bad and she didn't know how to cut her hand. Although the wound wasn't big, her fingers were connected to her heart, causing Gao Yang to grin from the pain.

Just as Gao Yang was about to find a Band-Aid and attach it to the wound, she saw the bracelet she was casually wearing was absorbing her blood.

Could it be that she got lucky today? Was this really the space for her in the novels?

Gao Yang waited until the stone on his bracelet stopped drinking blood before picking up the bracelet. It turned out that the green stone had become transparent.

She thought that the novels all said that I had to enter before I could enter the space. Gao Yang also wanted to try it out.

And she thought, "I want to go in." Who would've thought that Gao Yang would actually come to a strange place in the blink of an eye. The original novel's saying that the art came from life was true.

As Gao Yang entered the space, the first thing he saw was five brick houses similar to her yard!

It looked no different from her own house, and then she saw the dark ground beneath her feet.

Gao Yang knew that this piece of land was quite fertile, and she wasn't the type of person who was immune to the sun and spring water.

Her parents were both in the countryside, and she often helped them work in the fields when they were busy.

Gao Yang felt that the black soil was at least forty to fifty mu. Gao Yang felt that he had developed a lot. Secondly, how was she supposed to grow these?

Despite her worry, she decided to go inside.

He looked at the house that was no different from her own. The first place he entered was the living room, and next to that was the bedroom and the kitchen.

Gao Yang was afraid that he would see someone else inside, so she walked over to the door and knocked. "Is there anyone inside?" she asked.

After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one said anything, Gao Yang boldly pushed open the door and entered the room.

When Gao Yang entered the house, he discovered that the interior of the house was different from her own.

Although it was the living room, there was only a table and a chair in the living room. From the looks of it, it was the kind of study desk that was shown on TV.

Other than the desk in the living room, the only other thing in the room was a bookshelf filled with books.

Seeing the appearance of the living room, she felt that this was the study room. Thus, Gao Yang walked to the desk and discovered that on top of the desk were the four treasures of the study, as well as a letter.

On top of the envelope was written "The fated one has opened it himself". Only now did she put her heart into her stomach!

Gao Yang opened the letter and discovered that it was written in traditional Chinese characters. Moreover, it was written vertically and not horizontally.

When she read the letter, she realized that the original owner of the space was a lady from the Tang Dynasty. At that time, she had bought this bracelet when she first went shopping, so she had worn it on her hands out of a special heart.

Due to being framed and having their families destroyed, the original owner had actually sacrificed his looks and sacrificed himself to his enemies in order to get revenge.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty was still open, but the original owner had never gone out much. At that time, her enemies didn't know what she looked like, so on the day her family members were killed, her maidservants took her place, allowing her to escape.

After the original owner escaped, she had suffered a lot due to her appearance, and due to unexpected circumstances, she opened up the space.

When she knew who her enemy was, she decided to sacrifice her beauty.

The original owner was also a girl from a noble family, so her scheming was not a problem. Through her efforts, she finally managed to kill her enemy, and even brought a portion of his property into space.

Only after she escaped did she feel at a loss. She had avenged her great vengeance, but she was no longer innocent. The original owner had found a very remote mountain village and lived a life of an early and late return.

Since she was known as the widow of her husband, she did not have the heart to remarry.

With money in her hands, the people in the small mountain village were also very simple and honest. She slowly began to observe the space by herself.

Knowing that space could grow things all year round, the original owner was very excited, but after all, the original owner didn't know how to farm. After all, the original owner didn't know how to grow things all year round, and only opened up a plot of land at the back of the house, where he grew some common herbs, vegetables, and fruit trees.
