Gu Jiaojiao: “…”
Should she tell the kind-hearted auntie in front of her that she was actually thrown off the bed by that so-and-so kid?
While she was still pondering, a young woman’s voice came rushing in from the door.
“Gu Jiaojiao, did you fall on the ground because you were trying to run away? Your Sheng family is full of heartless people.
They forced this sickly girl onto my brother. How could my brother, who is half-paralyzed, possibly have anything to do with you?
It’s clearly a trap set by your Sheng family. Is there no justice or law anymore?”
Gu Jiaojiao looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl wearing a red top and yellow shorts.
This was a typical “scrambled eggs with tomatoes” outfit, which looked very old-fashioned.
“Chunni, how can you talk about your sister-in-law’s family like that? Go fetch a basin of hot water for your sister-in-law to wash her face.”
“Mom, how is the Sheng family her family? As soon as their biological daughter, Sheng Xinglian, returned, Gu Jiaojiao, this sickly girl, became an outsider. She’s been unconscious for two days and two nights, and no one from the Sheng family has come to see her.”
Gu Jiaojiao: “…”
Despite her usually excellent eloquence, she now felt at a loss for words, unsure how to counter this seemingly arrogant girl.
“Chunni, go fetch the hot water quickly, and tell your dad to bring over a bowl of hot porridge.”
“Why should she drink hot porridge? She’s been getting several bottles of glucose a day, draining our family’s resources…”
The girl muttered as she walked away.
“Jiaojiao, don’t mind Chunni. She means no harm. She’s just upset about how people in the compound treated you the other day.”
Mother Su used her rough hands to smooth out Gu Jiaojiao’s disheveled long hair.
Listening to the conversation between Mother Su and her daughter, Gu Jiaojiao went from being completely confused to gradually understanding.
At this moment, the memories that didn’t belong to her became increasingly clear in her mind.
The original host was forced to marry a disabled man in the compound, which already made her feel very unbalanced. On her wedding day, she was pointed at and gossiped about by many women.
Some jealous young wives even openly discussed her in front of her.
“Who would have thought that the once-envied eldest daughter of the Sheng family was actually a fake daughter who stole someone else’s place.”
“Not only has she been exposed, but she also maliciously schemed against the real daughter, Sheng Xinglian.”
“The ungrateful wretch not only failed but ended up marrying the half-paralyzed Su Shuoci. What a retribution.”
“Trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing the rice. In my opinion, the fake daughter only deserves to marry a rough country man, and a half-paralyzed one at that, hehe…”
“…”
The original host refused to bow to her disabled husband during the wedding ceremony, but her second and third brothers, who had doted on her for eighteen years, forced her to do so.
Filled with resentment, the original host didn’t dare to retort against the malicious gossip or resist her two unrelated brothers.
She vented all her anger on the Su family, publicly insulting them at the wedding.
This made the Su family, who were originally from the countryside, a laughingstock in the compound.
And just now, Mother Su was still being kind to her?!
Gu Jiaojiao felt so awkward that she could dig out a three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment with her toes.
The original host had been unconscious for two days and two nights, no wonder she felt so weak, as if she might pass out at any moment!
At this moment, Gu Jiaojiao finally understood that she had not only transmigrated into the body of another Gu Jiaojiao, but also into a rebirth-era novel filled with sadomasochistic love.
Gu Jiaojiao wanted to facepalm, but she didn’t have the strength, so she could only let out a long sigh. What kind of mess was this…
In rebirth novels, there’s always that one character who, when mentioned, makes everyone frown and consider them unlucky and utterly unreasonable.
Unfortunately, she was now that unlucky cannon fodder.
Raised as the daughter of the Sheng family for eighteen years, after being exposed as not the biological daughter, the original host lived a miserable life and died a tragic death.
In the book, after the real daughter of the Sheng family returned, they didn’t kick out the fake daughter but kept her in the family.
Afraid of losing her childhood sweetheart, Song Zijin, who was engaged to the Sheng family’s daughter, the original host maliciously tried to scheme to have the real daughter and the disabled Su Shuoci consummate their relationship.
Unfortunately, the original host’s evil plan was foiled by the reborn female lead, who turned the tables.
She schemed to have the original host end up with the half-paralyzed Su Shuoci.
Unable to defend herself, the original host had no choice but to marry the disabled man. While reading the book, everyone found it satisfying.
The ungrateful and evil cannon fodder deserved to marry a cripple and live a long, miserable life.
No one questioned the author’s official pairing, and positive reviews poured in like they were free.
Only Gu Jiaojiao herself, when she saw the tragic cannon fodder with the same name as hers, timidly asked in the comments section how a pampered girl from a wealthy family could possibly move a disabled man.
A few kind-hearted girls replied, saying that as long as it was satisfying, the details didn’t matter.
Because the plot was so satisfying, the male lead thought that the fake daughter who had schemed against the real daughter was utterly despicable.
After the original host married the cripple, the male lead pursued the female lead relentlessly. He admired the real daughter’s talent, and he loved her vibrant energy, so he went around saying that his engagement was always meant for the real daughter.
But the female lead kept running away, saying that he was her sister’s childhood sweetheart and should be with her sister.
The male and female leads, one chasing and the other running, soon came together in a sweet romance.
They had a son and a daughter, living a life so happy that even the gods would envy them. It was indeed super sweet and doting.
At this moment, Gu Jiaojiao, now the number one cannon fodder in the novel world, was not in a good mood.
Her head hurt.
Especially since the author had spent tens of thousands of words detailing the lives of the original host and her cannon fodder husband.
Su Shuoci was not from a wealthy family but a country bumpkin who had managed to move into the compound on his own merits.
Before his injury, his parents and two sisters were farming in the countryside.
After his injury, his elder sister had already married in the countryside, so his parents brought his younger sister to the compound to take care of him.
After his accident, the organization arranged jobs for his parents, and he received a monthly stipend and compensation.
Even though he was half-paralyzed, the Su family wouldn’t live poorly.
But Su Shuoci, who had never thought of getting married, was taken advantage of by “Gu Jiaojiao,” who became his legitimate wife.
To help him keep this wife, the Su family gradually handed over all their money and treasures to the original host, giving her the freedom to use them as she pleased. But the original host’s mind was truly not up to par.
She felt that she had taken up eighteen years of the Sheng family’s wealth and felt guilty towards the real daughter.
In a misguided attempt to compensate the female lead, she openly took the Su family’s money and treasures to curry favor with Sheng Xinglian.
The original host was so capable of causing trouble that she managed to anger Su’s father and mother to death.
After their parents died, the two Su sisters cut off all ties with the original host and her husband.
With no one to control her, she became even more brazen, giving away her husband’s life-saving money and treasures to Sheng Xinglian.
