—Brain Storage—
"Hiss~"
A sharp pain shot through her forehead, and Jiang Hua opened her eyes. Looking at the dense array of feet in front of her, she realized she was lying on the ground.
The surroundings were noisy, and seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Jiang Hua had no choice but to prop herself up and stand up from the ground.
"Hey, look! Er Ya is awake!"
Someone in the crowd shouted something, and the people who had just been surrounding him immediately took a few steps back, their eyes filled with fear, as if they had seen a ghost.
Just as Jiang Hua was about to step forward to ask what had happened, a sharp pain shot through her head, and a memory that wasn't hers flooded her mind.
Sudden--
After a "ding!" sounded in my mind,
"Female protagonist system successfully bound!"
Jiang Hua, who had just received the original owner's memories, was somewhat bewildered by the sudden mechanical voice.
However, the current situation did not give her a chance to be stunned.
"Xu Erya, you little slut, you lowly whore, why didn't you just die!"
Jiang Hua looked in the direction of the voice. These harsh and offensive words were uttered by the woman in front of her. According to her memories, this woman was also the mother of this body, Xu Shi.
The original owner's name was Xu Erya. The person next to Xu, who was also looking at her angrily, was the original owner's father, Xu Dagui.
After receiving the original owner's memories, Jiang Hua knew that she had transmigrated into a novel, and that Xu Erya was the villainous female supporting character in the novel.
But how could the villainous female supporting character be written out of the story so quickly?
"What happened? How did you come back to life? Didn't I kill you?"
At this moment, the mechanical voice in Jiang Hua's mind sounded, saying some inexplicable words. However, Jiang Hua then learned how her body had died.
"You little slut, I'm talking to you!"
Seeing that Jiang Hua remained silent for a while, Madam Xu lost her temper and immediately picked up a thick wooden stick, as thick as an infant's arm, and began to beat her mercilessly.
Driven by years of instinct, Jiang Hua's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she swiftly snatched the stick from Xu Shi's hand.
With a "crack," the stick broke in two in Jiang Hua's hand.
Xu had never seen Xu Erya like this before, and she was so frightened that she kept backing away.
"Aunt!" A gentle voice rang out, and Jiang Hua saw a girl in a white dress step forward to help Xu Shi.
"Sister Er Ya, how could you treat Aunt like this? You were the one who was wrong!"
Jiang Hua frowned, looking at the girl in the flowing white dress in front of her, searching for information about her in the original owner's memories.
Lin Shuyan?
Xu Dagui's deceased younger brother's daughter came to the original owner's home a year ago. Xu Shi and Xu Dagui were originally sexist and harsh towards the original owner, and this changed after Lin Shuyan came.
The original owner's life became even worse, largely thanks to Lin Shuyan's subtle and overt instigation, which made the original owner's parents dislike him even more.
Before, the original owner of this body could sleep in the same room as her younger brother. But after Lin Shuyan arrived, she was forced to live in the woodshed. All the daily chores fell on her shoulders. She couldn't eat or sleep well, and she was often beaten by her biased parents.
Jiang Hua glanced again at her arms, which were covered in scars and so thin they were skin and bones, exposed because her clothes didn't fit properly. The original owner of this body was already sixteen years old, but she didn't have a pound of flesh on her body.
Compared to Lin Shuyan in front of her, Jiang Hua could only sigh in her heart. If she were in modern times, she would be begging on the roadside with a bowl in her hand, and she wouldn't be as thin and bony as she is now.
A year ago, Lin Shuyan's family fell into decline, and Xu Dagui's younger brother married into the Lin family. When he first arrived at the Xu family, he looked like he had fled from a desolate place, and there was no difference between him and the original owner of this body now.
Now, a year has passed, and Lin Shuyan has become quite well-mannered thanks to the original owner's parents. However, the original owner did the opposite. If it weren't for her soul transmigrating, her stupid parents would probably have wrapped her up in a tattered straw mat and thrown her into a mass grave long ago.
After getting a rough understanding of the original owner's memories, Jiang Hua felt that the reason why the original owner was able to become a vicious female supporting character was inseparable from the original owner's family, which did not love her father or mother.
Of course, there's also Lin Shuyan in front of me and the man who's been coldly observing everything from the courtyard.
Zhou Yingxuan, the only light in Yuan Shen's heart.
Because of a cold steamed bun, the original owner regarded him as her salvation.
This man lived next door to the original owner's family. The two grew up together and could be considered childhood sweethearts.
The two met on a cold, snowy winter day. At that time, the original owner of the body was only five years old. She was beaten and kicked out of the house by Xu Shi for accidentally breaking a bowl while washing dishes.
It was freezing cold, and she was both cold and hungry. She could only huddle under the eaves. It was at that moment that Zhou Yingxuan appeared with a steamed bun and handed it to her, who was about to faint from hunger.
It was from that time that the two began to interact. Every time the original owner was kicked out of her home, Zhou Yingxuan would come out to accompany her or take her back to his own home.
At this point, Zhou Yingxuan was like a ray of light suddenly shining into the dark and hopeless abyss of the original body.
However, everything changed the year Lin Shuyan arrived. Under Lin Shuyan's instigation, the original owner began to feel that her brother, who had always protected her, was becoming more and more distant from her.
After several instances where her brother, who had always stood by her side, started to protect another girl, she began to feel unable to accept it. Coupled with Lin Shuyan's overt and covert provocations, her mentality began to become distorted.
So, at Lin Shuyan's prompting, the original owner wanted to drug Zhou Yingxuan, but before she could even do it, things turned out like this.
She didn't know why she was lying in the hunter's house at the end of the village, and that the man had a child, but no one knew where the child's mother was.
The original owner of this body had no idea that Lin Shuyan had arranged this all along, carefully timing it so that she would lead the villagers to the house under the guise of catching the adulterers in the act, which led to the farce that has now unfolded.
"What did I do wrong? Wasn't it your idea to drug Zhou Yingxuan?" Jiang Hua raised an eyebrow and looked at Lin Shuyan, who was supporting Xu Shi.
"Sister Er Ya, how could you say that to me?"
In the blink of an eye, Lin Shuyan had already put on an expression as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"Xu Erya, that's enough! Everyone saw what you did, so why are you trying to pin your mistakes on Yan Yan!"
Zhou Yingxuan, who had been silent until now, stepped forward when he saw that Lin Shuyan was about to cry.
“Yes, Er Ya, you came here to ask for these aphrodisiacs. You said your mother told you to come and get them,” an elderly man in the crowd said.
Finally, he added, "Er Ya, you can't lie at such a young age. You should learn from your cousin Yan Yan."
