I thought that the hard times were over and good days were about to begin.
Who knew that Zhang Huixiang would take a liking to this small restaurant, and she cried and made a scene, insisting that Ling Yun adopt one of Ling Yong's children into her name and raise it as her own.
Lingyun didn't care about this. She was afraid of men and didn't want to marry again. She felt that raising a child alone would keep her from being lonely. So, she raised Ling Yong's son as her own, treating him with all her heart. She gave part of her hard-earned money to Zhang Huixiang and spent the rest on the child.
However, what belongs to others will always belong to others.
It was Zhang Huixiang's idea to adopt the child, but Ling Yong's wife did not agree. There were constant arguments at home. Finally, she came up with a suggestion: they should all stay at a small restaurant and help Ling Yun out.
As they helped each other, the household registration was transferred, and Ling Yong became the head of the household. When the "government" demolished the property, all of Ling Yun's belongings became Ling Yong's family's property. Ling Yun ended up living under someone else's roof, being ordered around every day. He became sick from exhaustion and eventually couldn't get out of bed. He didn't even have anyone to take care of him and starved to death in bed.
Ling Yun died with great resentment.
She wasn't extremely dull-witted; she was once intelligent. But she was unlucky to have a good mother, and all her intelligence and kindness became things that were exploited and trampled upon.
If she could have a second chance at life, she would definitely study hard and never waste her youth on a bunch of ungrateful wretches again.
...
After receiving the plot.
Linghu Lan felt extremely distressed. She was an only child, but she had seen many examples of male chauvinism in the real world. Ling Yun's personality was very kind, but overall, it was really infuriating. Every time, the villains succeeded. It has to be said that his personality was too soft.
Linghu Lan suppressed her frustration and silently called out to the system: Is this the identity you chose for me this time?
The system remained silent for a while before slowly replying: In order to get closer to the boss, this is the most suitable identity selected from within a radius of dozens of miles.
Linghu Lan: ...You've all worked so hard!
The arrogant system: You're welcome, my dear subject, rise.
Linghu Lan: ...You're so shameless, do the programmers even know?
Linghu Lan lay on a small bed made of wooden planks, looking at the roof. The house was very tall, with a few wooden beams covered with straw mats. Such a house was not warm and would freeze people to death in winter.
If the system can only give her this identity, it means that Mo Tang is nearby.
Linghu Lan: Where is Mo Tang?
The system hesitated for a while before replying: "It's nearby."
Linghu Lan: ...You mean you still can't pinpoint the person?
System: The system you are calling is in a dormant state and requires a recharge to start.
Linghu Lan: Damn, he's really good at pretending to die.
She closed her eyes and went through the plot. The timeline she was in now was when Ling Yun had finished the first semester of high school and it was time to register for the second semester. Zhang Huixiang had locked Ling Yun in the house for the third day.
In Lingyun's memory, on this day, her homeroom teacher, Teacher Ren, would take a bus to this small mountain village to persuade Zhang Huixiang to let Lingyun go to school, even if the school waived all the tuition fees. But Zhang Huixiang disagreed. What use would waiving tuition fees be? There would still be living expenses, which would cost a hundred yuan a month. Who would look after the small shop at home?
Therefore, Zhang Huixiang decisively scolded the teacher and kicked her out. That day, Lingyun was in the house and saw through a corner of the window that Teacher Ren left her home with a red face and tears in her eyes.
