"You worthless piece of trash who can't bear a son, today I'll make my son divorce you!"
The sharp pain in her body made Jiang Ling open her eyes abruptly.
An old woman with a sharp mouth and monkey-like face was seen raising a cane as thick as a baby's arm and striking Jiang Ling's body.
Jiang Ling instinctively tried to dodge, but found it was too late.
"Grandma! Please don't hit Mom anymore!" The moment the cane fell, two figures rushed to Jiang Ling's side.
A muffled thud made Jiang Ling feel pain just hearing it.
But the two figures who pounced on her didn't utter a sound.
"You two little good-for-nothings, who gave you the right to speak here? Get out of my way!" The old woman fiercely scolded the two children who were clinging to Jiang Ling.
"Grandma? Mother?" Jiang Ling looked at everything in front of her in a daze. When did she, a single young woman, suddenly have two children?
Memories that didn't belong to Jiang Ling flooded into her mind at that moment. She felt a tingling sensation all over her body, and her eyes widened uncontrollably.
"You worthless brat, you dare glare at me? I'll beat you to death today!" The old woman raised her cane again and struck Jiang Ling.
Jiang Ling quickly pulled her two children up and dodged away. The old woman's cane missed its mark, and she flew into a rage. She slammed her hand on the ground and yelled at Jiang Ling, "You worthless brat! You've gone too far! How dare you dodge?"
Looking at the fierce-looking old woman in front of her and the gloating woman hiding beside her, Jiang Ling felt a headache coming on.
What sins did she commit in her past life to deserve such punishment from God in this life? She worked day and night to start her business, and just as the company was getting on track, she finally got her first peaceful night's sleep.
When she opened her eyes, she found herself transported to another time. Unlike in TV dramas, where people who transmigrate are either princesses, noble ladies, or at the very least, daughters of wealthy merchants.
She herself was transported to a time of famine in a fictional dynasty, to a place where the whole family were extraordinary individuals.
What's even more speechless is that this family is extremely awful and they all have a strong preference for sons over daughters, especially the original owner's wicked mother-in-law who wanted to give birth to sons for every child she had.
They even spent a fortune to buy a son from a distant relative and have him raised by the original owner of the body; they called this method "crossing over to a younger brother".
Unfortunately, fate was unkind. Seven years after the original owner married into the family, she only gave birth to two daughters. Her wicked mother-in-law and scumbag husband even considered her a "jinx" who would "have no offspring".
Not long after, the scumbag husband hooked up with Widow Wang from the next village, and Widow Wang's belly quickly grew bigger.
Seeing this, the wicked mother-in-law and the scumbag husband tried every outrageous way to torture her, hoping she would die quickly so that they could bring Widow Wang into the family.
Looking at the original owner's arms, which were covered in bruises and looked withered, Jiang Ling felt a surge of anger, perhaps due to the empathy between women.
She glanced sideways at the old woman who was still talking, stepped forward, raised her hand, and with all her might, swung it in the air and delivered a slap.
With a sharp "smack!", a clear handprint immediately appeared on the old woman's face.
"You...you hit me?" The old woman stared at Jiang Ling with wide eyes, three parts anger and seven parts shock.
"Do I have to pick a day to hit you?" Jiang Ling said coldly.
"Rebellion! Rebellion! You've retaliated! You worthless wretch, how dare you hit me!"
Jiang Ling's retaliation seemed to further enrage the old woman in front of her. Ignoring the red marks on her face, the old woman raised her cane at Jiang Ling once again.
With another sharp "smack," the old woman's right cheek swelled up high, and the cane she had been holding above her head froze in mid-air.
"If you dare call me a worthless piece of trash again, I'll tear your mouth apart!" Jiang Ling said fiercely, her eyebrows raised.
Jiang Ling unleashed her full power, instantly frightening the old woman so much that her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
Immediately afterward, a dark figure filled with anger darted in front of Jiang Ling. He helped the old woman up and cursed at Jiang Ling, "You bitch! Believe me or not, I'll beat you to death!"
The man in front of her was undoubtedly the original owner's scumbag husband. Looking at his aggressive appearance, Jiang Ling knew that she could only outsmart him now, and could not resort to force like she had when dealing with the old woman.
The original owner's memories had clearly told her that she could no longer stay in the Lu family, otherwise she would suffer the same fate as the original owner, being beaten to death.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ling looked at Lu Youren in front of her and said, "Haven't you always wanted to divorce me? Let's get a divorce today!"
Jiang Ling's words stunned Lu Youren for a few seconds, and then Lu Youren rushed out the door.
A few minutes later, Lu Youren appeared in front of Jiang Ling again with the divorce papers.
He threw the divorce papers at Jiang Ling's feet and said with a look of disgust, "Get lost, don't get in my way! Wait..."
At this point, Lu Youren seemed to have thought of something, and he pushed the two girls who had been protecting Jiang Ling to Jiang Ling's side.
"Take these two good-for-nothings with you! Oh, and that outsider too!" Lu Youren said, pointing to the silent boy standing to the side.
The intention behind these words is quite clear: the scumbag is hoping for Jiang Ling's death. In this era where people rely on men for a living, not to mention famine years, even on ordinary days, women without men to rely on will have an exceptionally difficult life.
Looking at the two girls, who were pale, thin, and trembling, Jiang Ling recalled the scene of the two girls rushing over to protect her, and she felt a pang of pity.
Moreover, Jiang Ling has transmigrated into the body of the original owner, and is now the mother of these two girls. No matter what, Jiang Ling cannot stand idly by.
