Xiao Yunying turned over and sighed. The original owner of this body was both pitiful and despicable.
Her family treated her very well; she was one of the few girls who grew up being pampered.
The original owner's mother, Mu Lianrong, truly loved her. From a young age, she raised this daughter as a lady of a prominent family. She never let her work in the fields, let alone do laundry or cook.
While it's not like they're waited on hand and foot, they certainly don't lift a finger.
This also fostered the spoiled and willful temperament of the original owner.
In order to give their daughter a skill, they specially sent her to an embroidery workshop in the city and spent a lot of money to teach her the art of embroidery.
The original owner enjoyed being praised with envious words, and she worked hard herself. Putting aside everything else, her embroidery skills were truly excellent.
Women in this era would start looking for partners as early as twelve or thirteen. If they found a suitable match, they would settle down first, and after reaching the age of fifteen, they could start discussing marriage.
The original owner was clueless and uninterested in marriage. Her mother didn't urge her and indulged her, saying that at worst, she could find a husband to marry into her family.
As long as you're willing to spend money, you won't have trouble finding a good man for your daughter.
Because of this sentence, her two sisters-in-law, who already disliked the original owner, hated her even more.
It wasn't until the arrival of Luo Sheng's family that the original woman's heart was stirred.
The nosy villagers inquired about their family situation. Luo Sheng's mother said that their family had suffered a disaster and fled here. The children's mother was weak and did not survive, leaving behind only four children.
These words gave the original owner hope, and she didn't mind the four children, crying and making a fuss about marrying Luo Sheng.
For some unknown reason, Xiao Shan Hai, the original owner's father who had always turned a blind eye to his wife's doting on their daughter, stood up straight this time and refused to agree no matter how much his daughter made a fuss.
Mu Lianrong also didn't think much of Luo Sheng.
He always has a cold face, acting like everyone owes him money; he doesn't seem like someone who loves his wife.
He's so much older than my daughter, and he has four children to support. How could he possibly be worthy of my beautiful daughter?
Besides, outsiders have unstable roots. Judging from those few thatched houses, they probably aren't wealthy. Wouldn't my daughter suffer along with them if she married into that family?
Aside from his good looks, he couldn't stand anything else about him.
While Mu Lianrong was struggling with whether to persuade her daughter to give up Luo Sheng or to persuade her own father to agree to her daughter marrying him, the original owner, after being instigated by someone, pretended to fall into the water on Luo Sheng's way back from hunting.
Although it was supposed to be an act, the original owner underestimated the depth of the river. The moment she jumped in, she was completely submerged and almost drowned.
When Luo Sheng rescued the original owner, she had already fainted. None of the prepared explanations were used, and the plan was over before it even began.
Because the original owner was unconscious and had little memory of the incident, when she woke up, Mu Lianrong told her that she could marry Luo Sheng.
The original owner was very happy, although she didn't know why. But the process didn't matter; the result was the most important.
Later I found out that it was the original owner's mother who was really helpful.
The original owner's parents were unaware that their daughter had plotted against Luo Sheng.
They knew their daughter's personality better than anyone. She was spoiled and willful, but not cunning enough to come up with such a shameless and damaging method.
They simply assumed that their daughter had committed suicide by drowning because her family disapproved of the relationship, but was saved by Luo Sheng by chance.
When the doctor said her daughter was out of danger, Mu Lianrong breathed a sigh of relief. Without discussing it with the old man, she made her own decision and went to Luo Sheng's house to find his mother and tell her that her daughter had lost her virginity and asked Luo Sheng to marry her.
I don't know what they said, but in the end, Luo Sheng agreed.
Mu Lianrong returned home satisfied and told the original owner of the body, so happy that she couldn't sleep all night.
The next morning, Luo Sheng came to the door and made his request: the wedding day would not be a grand affair, nor would there be any banquet for guests; the two families could simply have a meal together.
If you don't agree, I won't marry you.
Mu Lianrong's anger flared up instantly. Seeing the other party's cold and hard attitude, she suppressed her anger and wanted to ask the reason.
The original owner nodded in agreement without asking any questions.
Xiao Shan Hai was so angry that he glared and puffed out his beard, but he couldn't say anything harsh for fear of upsetting his daughter.
Because the original owner was in a hurry, the wedding date was set quickly, March 20th, leaving half a month for the bride to get married.
The original owner's parents were busy preparing for the wedding, and the original owner stayed in her room every day. Despite the tight schedule, she insisted on embroidering her wedding dress herself.
After staying up for more than ten consecutive nights, she not only embroidered her own wedding dress, but also made new clothes for her future mother-in-law and her four children.
The fabric is fine cotton, the stitches are dense, and there are embroidered flowers on the hem and cuffs, showing that it was made with real care.
The original owner did indeed want to live a good life with Luo Sheng.
Unexpectedly, on the day of her wedding, after seeing off her family in the evening, Luo Sheng said she was going to take her mother to see a doctor.
Luo Sheng's mother was in poor health and fell ill after winter. She didn't get better in the spring and kept coughing. The original owner of his family knew this.
The original owner was initially angry that he didn't even wear a wedding dress on his wedding day. But when he heard him say this, he comforted himself, saying that his family wasn't wealthy and probably needed to save money for his mother-in-law's medical treatment, so they couldn't afford a wedding dress.
Thinking about it that way, there's nothing to be unhappy about anymore.
