Although she enjoyed drinking her sugary soda, the happiest person was the system, who dared not speak out against its anger.
"Host, shouldn't we start planning the next world?" the system said very cautiously.
"Okay, let me see the plot."
As soon as Su Chen saw the beginning, she lost her composure.
"What? In the last world I was made to study, and in this world I'm made to farm? Huh?"
[Hey, host, calm down, calm down, keep reading.]
In Yong'an Town, there lived a scholarly family—the Lan family.
To be honest, the Lan family can't really be called a family of scholars. People say that a family of scholars needs at least three generations. Up to Lan Zhi's father, Lan Fu, the Lan family only produced two scholars.
Lan Fu was at best a scholar, but in a poor village like Yong'an Town, he was considered a very talented person.
Lan Fu wasn't a bookworm. Seeing that the villagers respected him for being educated, he simply opened a private school to teach the children in town, and life was quite peaceful.
Unfortunately, his wife suddenly fell ill and passed away, leaving behind a toddler who was just learning to speak.
Lan Fu was busy and didn't know how to take care of children, so he listened to his mother's advice and married a concubine named You.
While her mother-in-law was alive, Madam You was the image of a kind and virtuous wife. But as soon as her mother-in-law passed away, she revealed her true nature as a shrew.
Lanzhi was either starved or beaten and verbally abused.
Lanzhi's father, Lanfu, was afraid of his wife. He knew what kind of person You Shi was, but dared not speak out against it. However, he would still secretly buy some good food for Lanzhi.
However, ever since Madam You gave birth to a big, healthy son for Lanfu, Lanfu has become indifferent to Lanzhi and has started to turn a blind eye to what Madam You does.
"What a scumbag dad! As the saying goes, having a stepmother means having a stepfather!" *sigh*
[Host, stay calm. You've lived in two worlds, after all. You should at least be able to let go of things, if not completely accept them, right?]
"I can't stand it; it makes me angry just seeing it."
It's okay, looking at it a few more times will make you less angry.
Su Chen took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and continued reading.
As things continued this way, Lanzhi's status at home became increasingly lower, to the point that she was practically invisible. Lanzhi had unspeakable bitterness in her heart.
Once, she went to the river to wash clothes. While washing, she suddenly fell into the river, whether she was tired or something. She couldn't swim and there was no one around. So she lost her life in the struggle and despair.
At that moment, a flash of white light appeared, and Lan Zhi, who had stopped struggling, opened her eyes again. This person was Tong Tong, who had just been betrayed by her boyfriend and had an accident.
The moment Tong Tong opened her eyes, she found herself in the water. However, Tong Tong could swim and swam directly to the shore. Based on the memories of her original body, she found her way home, and thus began her life of fighting against her stepmother...
Su Chen: ? ? ?
"What kind of plot is this? Is it really that melodramatic? Are you sure this is a farming story and not some kind of domestic power struggle?"
No, no, you haven't seen the scene where the male and female leads get married yet.
"Oh, oh." Su Chen nodded like a good child and continued reading.
Later, for some reason, Lanfu's health deteriorated, and he could only teach at the private school sporadically. Fewer and fewer students came, and his income declined. At the most difficult time, his family couldn't even afford to eat.
Madam You also began to plan to improve the family's life, especially since she hadn't yet saved enough money for her son's wife.
Lanzhi has grown up recently and doesn't listen to her much anymore, so it's a good opportunity to marry her off and get a dowry. So... she set her sights on Lanzhi.
There's a bachelor in town, Butcher Li, who's almost thirty, who's currently looking for a wife. He's offering a very generous dowry, so it would be perfect for him to marry her.
When Tong Tong, who was replacing Lan Zhi, saw You Shi's smiling face, she felt something was wrong, and upon hearing about the marriage, she was right...
However, she didn't try to stop him too much. She was heartbroken by that scumbag and felt that all men were the same, so it wouldn't matter who she married.
Tong Tong believes that all men in the world are scumbags and marriage is a grave.
However, she thought the original owner of Lanzhi's home was even more of a tomb. She had had enough of her father, stepmother, and younger brother, and would rather marry out and change her environment.
Besides, Tong Tong has medical skills, so she's not afraid that Butcher Li might have any ulterior motives towards her. Anyway, if she's just preparing medicine, he can't possibly have any romantic ideas about her.
So Tong Tong married into the family. Butcher Li treated her well, not only giving generous dowries but also hiring a sedan chair and having four people carry it over, giving the Lan family a great deal of face.
Tong Tong didn't care about anything, but kept holding the needle in her hand, waiting for the butcher to make a move so that she could immobilize him.
On their wedding night, in the bridal chamber, Butcher Li lifted the veil, and Tong Tong looked up and found that Butcher Li was not as ugly as rumored!
She has a scar on her face and her skin is a bit dark, but her figure is still very good. She is not the chubby person Tongtong had imagined.
However... a wedding night is still out of the question...
Tong Tong knew she couldn't possibly have an inappropriate relationship with someone the moment they met, and besides, she instinctively felt that all men were scum, so she refused Li the Butcher's request to share a room.
Surprisingly, Butcher Li accepted the offer and even voluntarily gave up a large room in his house for Tong Tong to live in. Not only that, he also handed over all the money he earned to Tong Tong to manage.
Tong Tong was deeply moved by Li the Butcher's trust and thought she had to double his business again, so she used some modern knowledge to help him with marketing.
Just when the two were living a prosperous life and their relationship was warming up a bit.
The landlord's foolish son, Qian Duo, came to cause trouble.
Once, Qian Duo passed by Li the butcher's butcher shop and caught a glimpse of a beautiful young woman, so he made some flirtatious remarks.
He was flirting with none other than Tong Tong.
Butcher Li was furious. "This is my wife! What are you doing there?"
He chased after Qian Duo with a knife in hand, making Qian Duo, a relatively wealthy young man in the town, lose face.
So every now and then he would bring people to the butcher shop to overturn a table, smash a board, or provoke someone, and then... he would continue to talk to Tong Tong.

"Um... Song Ming... became the landlord's stupid son?"
【ah. 】
"You even smashed up someone's butcher shop? And harassed someone's wife?"
【ah. 】
"Gagagagagagagaga..." Su Chen laughed so hard she rolled around on the bed, clutching her stomach.
The system sighed helplessly, "Host, you're laughing like a duck."
Su Chen laughed until her stomach hurt, and she only stopped when she was too tired to laugh anymore.
"This is hilarious. The difference between Song Ming and Qian Duo's personalities is just too big."
