Chapter 1 Becoming a Vicious Sister-in-law
"Are you going to sell them or not? These two kids are as skinny as bamboo poles. I can only give you three taels for both of them combined!"
"mother……"
Su Cheng suddenly came to his senses when he heard the clear cry of a child. He lowered his eyes and looked down. His thigh was being held tightly by someone.
"Mom, don't sell me, just sell Cuicui. I'm a boy, and I can support you in the future..."
A young girl was kneeling at his feet, her face covered with tears. With one hand she clutched her skirt, and with the other she was desperately trying to pull at the boy who had been carried away by the boy.
Su Cheng was stunned. Just as he was about to say that the girl had picked up the wrong person, a memory that did not belong to him flooded into his mind.
She mysteriously traveled through a book, into an old-fashioned sweet romance novel, and became the top-tier vicious female supporting character, a comparison group to the true, good, and beautiful heroines.
The original owner married Xie Song, the eldest son of the Xie family, as his second wife. Right after they got married, before they even had the chance to enter the bridal chamber, Xie Song slipped and fell into the lake and was swept away to another place, leaving no trace of his body.
She became a widow at a young age and had to support a son and a daughter born to her husband and his first wife. As time went by, the original owner couldn't help but feel some resentment in her heart.
But she should never have set her sights on her uncles.
The Xie family has four sons, all of them are handsome. Except for Xie Song who died young, the remaining three were always around the original owner. Over time, she began to have inappropriate thoughts about them. First, she seduced her second brother by wearing only a bellyband, then she secretly climbed onto the bed of her third brother, and finally she put drugs in the cup that her fourth brother often used, trying to force him to have sex, but all ended in failure.
Seeing that she failed to seduce her uncle, the original owner simply sold the two children to other boys, stole the money for her second brother's exam and the money for her third brother's life, and ran away.
When the three younger uncles became gods in their respective fields and became famous, they tried their best to find the eldest sister-in-law. The original owner went up to him to recognize her as her relative but was then executed by slow slicing and her corpse was whipped after her death.
After sorting out that long memory, Su Cheng couldn't help but curse, "Fuck!"
Hearing her voice, the girl trembled even more violently. She stared at the boy with tears in her eyes and kept kowtowing to him, "Uncle, please buy me and let my brother go. I beg you, I can do any dirty or tiring work!"
"Don't kneel! Cuicui, don't beg them." The boy's eyes were clearly filled with tears, but he stubbornly refused to let them fall. "As long as I can be with you, I don't ask for anything else."
After saying that, he glared at Su Cheng fiercely, his clear eyes filled with murderous intent that did not belong to someone his age. "You vicious woman, you will definitely get your comeuppance!"
Su Cheng was shocked by his stare. He wanted to explain himself but had no way to refute him.
After all, what this doll said is correct.
Lingchi execution, digging up graves and whipping corpses, is there any retribution more severe than this?
"Go away, stop making trouble!" The boy pushed Xie Cuicui's hand away with a look of disgust. "Look at how thin you are. You might die on the road. I won't pay a penny just to buy you!"
"Daughter-in-law of the Xie family, for three taels of silver, I will take these two children away."
As he spoke, he took out three taels of silver from his waist pocket and was about to hand it to Su Cheng.
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, a sound was heard outside the door. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound. A tall and slender man was standing quietly at the door. His long gown was washed white, with patches on the cuffs and elbows. There was not much expression on his sharp and handsome face. His phoenix eyes fell on Su Cheng, full of disgust.
It's this woman making trouble again.
Seeing him, Xie Cuicui suddenly burst into tears, "Second Uncle..."
Second uncle... Xie Suzhou, the future powerful official who will cover the sky with one hand?
Su Cheng looked at the man and couldn't help swallowing.
He was the one who ordered the grave to be dug up and the corpse to be whipped.
Seeing Xie Cuicui's red face from crying, Xie Suzhou frowned and slowly looked at Su Cheng, his annoyance growing stronger. "Su, if you have the ability, why do you use it on two children?"
"Second uncle, our stepmother wants to sell Cuicui and me!" Xie Chen seized the opportunity to complain, his little face showing undisguised hatred.
Xie Suzhou was stunned for a moment, and a hint of anger instantly rose on his elegant and cold face. "Su, my eldest brother died young, leaving only these two children. I can understand that you are unwilling to be a widow and a stepmother. After my eldest brother died, I immediately went to your mother's family, hoping that they would take you back."
"It's obvious that they don't want you to come home because they think it's difficult for you to remarry. There's no need for you to vent your anger on these two children!"
Facing Xie Suzhou's hateful eyes, Su Cheng trembled all over and quickly spoke to make amends, "I didn't mean to sell them, you misunderstood."
Xie Suzhou looked at the boy who was still holding Xie Chen and sneered.
Su Cheng followed his gaze, broke out in a cold sweat, and said hurriedly, "Put my son down quickly, I won't sell the child!"
The boy was shocked by her sudden change of expression, and the flesh on his face twitched a few times, "Little girl, are you kidding me? If you don't want to sell the child, why did you call me over here?"
"Who said I called you here to sell the child?" Su Cheng rolled her eyes and thought of a solution in the blink of an eye. She pulled out the silver hairpin from her bun and handed it to him, "I sell jewelry."
The young man was furious, "I'm not a pawnshop owner..."
"Ten coppers."
The young man immediately lost his temper, took the silver hairpin, weighed it in his hand, and smiled with wrinkles on his face, "You are a good business woman, my young wife. I'll take the ten copper coins. If you come across this kind of stuff again, remember to come to me!"
When Su Cheng saw him put the silver hairpin into his waist bag, his heart finally settled down.
The Su family despised their daughter extremely and did not give the original owner any dowry. There was only a silver hairpin that the original owner bought with the money she had saved. No matter how cheap it was, it was impossible for it to be sold for only ten coins.
But she had no other choice at the moment. It was worth it to exchange a hairpin for a life.
Xie Suzhou frowned, and only when the boy walked out of the Xie family did he set his eyes on the woman.
He recognized the hairpin; it was the one Su wore when she got married. She usually treated it like a treasure and wanted to worship it. But now she was selling it for just ten copper coins?
What on earth is this woman up to?
"Don't cry." Su Cheng smiled and wiped away the tears on Xie Cuicui's face, pretending to be kind, "Mother loves you so much, how could she possibly sell you out?"
"Thank you, scholar... Thank you, scholar!"
The woman's voice was calling from far away. Xie Suzhou turned sideways and saw the fat woman running towards him.
When the woman saw Xie Suzhou, she rushed over as if she had seen a savior, running out of breath.
Xie Suzhou frowned, feeling a bad premonition in his heart, "Why is Aunt Liu so anxious?"
Aunt Liu grabbed his sleeve, breathing heavily, and pointed in the direction she came from. "Go to the ditch quickly and take a look. Your Sanlang has been surrounded by Song Gang and his men. They are about to cut off his arm!"
Su Cheng chased Xie Suzhou to the river ditch and saw the handsome man surrounded by seven or eight people.
The man's plain white gown was wet and dripping with water. His hair was sticking to his forehead, and his handsome face was sickly pale. He was so thin that his cheekbones were slightly prominent, but it couldn't hide his appearance.
"Jinyu!"
Seeing that the man was half wet, Xie Suzhou's expression changed instantly and he ran towards him.
Hearing the voice, Xie Jinyu looked up and saw her brother. A hint of red appeared at the corners of her eyes. Then she saw the woman following behind her brother. Her face suddenly changed. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly covered her lips with her hands and started coughing violently.
Xie Suzhou supported him, a look of distress flashing across his face, "Jinyu, is there something wrong?"
Xie Jinyu shook his head, suppressing the itch in his throat. His eyes were fixed on Su Cheng behind him, and he wished he could torture her to death with his eyes.
Su Cheng met his gaze and her body shook uncontrollably.
This is the rare and rare miraculous doctor in the future, so why is he a sickly person?
He was staring at me so sinisterly, could it be that the original owner was causing trouble again?
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Su Cheng saw the man named Song Gang winking and looking at him.
No way...it really has something to do with me!
