摘要

The village girl who was close to death from illness was about to marry, and her suitor was a strong and hearty hunter. Having time-traveled to a poor and backward mountain village, she had resigned herself to the lack of three square meals a day, but was her new body already halfway into the grave? What's more curious was that someone still wanted to marry her despite being on her deathbed? Driven by curiosity, she went ahead with the marriage, eager to see who the unlucky sap was who'd lose his betrothal gifts and even the coffin money. Cradled in his arms, her body was thin as a rake, and she really wanted to ask him, "Husband, does holding me hurt your hands?"

Chapter 1Chapter 1: Marrying Off the Sick Seedling

Gu Youyou, as the Gu Family's primary heir, lost both her parents at a young age, but thankfully managed to grow up safely amidst constant trepidation.

Just when she had finally defeated all the greedy ghosts and gods coveting her position as heir and had triumphantly ascended to the throne of inheritance, she traveled through time...

Lying on the broken bed in a dark room, Gu Youyou sighed, "Life is like a TV series, the scene changes when it says change! It doesn't care if you are at a loss or utterly confused!"

She had thought that, as a beautiful female CEO, after inheriting the family business she'd find a man to marry into her family, and the two of them would spend their days in leisure until death—but instead, the story took a divine twist right at the beginning, catching her entirely off guard.

Fine, if it's time travel, then time travel it is, she accepted that. But out of all people, why did she have to travel into the body of a sickly person who was not long for this world?

The taste of waiting for death was unbearable, so she resolved to do everything in her power to live!

Collecting her thoughts, Gu Youyou surveyed the entirely sealed pitch-black room. A few finger-sized holes by the wall, which served as vents, were the only sources of ventilation and sunlight.

With the strength of nine bulls and two tigers, Gu Youyou managed to turn over and stretched her ears to listen to the noises coming from the front yard.

"Dad, did you really find a marital match for Youyou?" the Gu Family's second son asked in disbelief.

His eldest niece Gu Youyou was so sick that she could meet the King of Hell at any time, and this fact was known by everyone within miles. Why would anyone want to marry her? Were they expecting her to carry on the family line?

Or did the family have so many leftover coffins that they had run out of corpses to fill them? It was almost impossible to believe.

The old master of the Gu Family looked at his second son with his cloudy eyes, and spoke in a weary, gravelly voice, "Humph, what? Are you not pleased?"

Gu Family's second son choked on his words and coughed out a laugh, "No, no, that's not it at all, we couldn't be happier."

The old man slammed his hand down on the table with a bang and angrily said, "You heartless bunch, I knew it! You've been longing for Youyou to get married and be out of here. Ever since she fell ill, you've been wishing her dead day after day. She's your elder brother's only bloodline—how can you be so cruel..."

The second and third sons were so startled by his sudden change of expression they were rendered speechless. What was he talking about? It was he who insisted on marrying her off, not us forcing her to marry.

"Dad, that's nonsense. Didn't you previously say we were to support her for a lifetime? And we didn't object to that, did we?"

Besides, no matter how it looked, finding a family willing to take Gu Youyou with her ghostly appearance was something of a feat.

But then they remembered how the old master had previously stated he would support Gu Youyou for a lifetime. Recently, something had got into him, and he was adamant about finding her a husband, insisting on marrying her off at all costs—it was all too strange.

The main question was, had he really found a match without disclosing the fact that Gu Youyou was seriously ill?

The old master of the Gu Family was oblivious to the second son's complicated thoughts and was just gasping for breath in anger.

Seeing that their father was truly upset, the Gu Family's third son quickly sat beside him on the heated brick bed and gently patted his back to help him breathe easier.

"Dad, how could we ever wish for Youyou to die? That's not what the second brother meant. He meant Youyou getting married is a good thing; our elder brother could rest in peace knowing this," he said and then cast a glance at the Gu Family's second son, signaling, "Right, second brother?"

Naturally, the second son grasped the third son's intent and quickly scrambled to appease their father with a smile, "Exactly, Dad. Isn't raising a daughter all about hoping she marries well? After the death of our elder brother and sister-in-law, we've all treated Youyou as our dear daughter."

Making the second male lead fall in love with me, the villainess

last installment now serializing! just search 'The transmigrated Villainess after her fall' Add to lib and vote!!!! Thank you all!!!!!!! WARNING: MATURE CONTENT CHAPTER EXCERPT -- “Wait, someone might see.” Charlton said, recalling the glass window. “I’m prepared for that.” Serena replied as she bent to open her bag on the floor and then took out a film like looking sticker. “I found this at the market yesterday.” “I must say that I’m ill-prepared for this.” He noted as he furrowed his brows. Serena stood up and gave him the sticker. Then she placed her right hand on the bulge of his pants, directly gripping his erection. “Well, I must say that you’re not. Now, do place the sticker on the window.” — Serena Chen lived a life filled with love and success, while devoid of any hardship. So, when it was time to go, she went peacefully. However, as if fate was playing its game on her, she opened her eyes again only to discover that she has transmigrated as Serena Maxwell, the villainess in the novel "A Cinderella story in Victorian fantasy era" written by her very own granddaughter. Set in a Victorian-esque era, Serena Lilianne Maxwell was the only daughter of the Ducal house of Maxwell. She was rich, beautiful, a little haughty, and the fiancé of the crown prince. Every lady wants to be her, but sadly, the crown prince, Geoffrey, fell in love with Emily Evans, the daughter of an impoverished Baron. Seeing how young and beautiful she was again, her only thought was, since she already lived her past life as a normal decent lady, why not live as a semi-wanton lady of the era to fulfill her fantasies? Thus, she set her sights on her first target, Charlton Daniel, the only son of the duke of Suffox, cousin of the crown prince, and the original novel's second male lead. After some twists and turns, like any other sappy romantic story, the two inevitably fell in love. However, contrary to the novel's original plot, Geoffrey, the crown prince, who Serena was still politically engaged to, fell for her. It would have been less complicated if the engagement was not one ordained by the king, but it was. With this situation, what would Charlton and Serena have to do and what sacrifices must they make, to get to their happily ever after? Join them to find out. -- This novel will have romance, adventure, comedy, friendship, betrayal, politics, drama, smut, and so much more. (This will be a feast for historical drama and music lovers) Just for clarification, the world Serena transmigrated to is a Victorian-esque era so it's not exactly historically accurate. Timelines may be jumbled specially when it comes to some technological advances, but I try to keep them as realistic as possible. BTW, if anyone is curious about the age, this is more historically accurate. People in Victorian era marries on average, 26 for male, and never dropped lower than 22 for female. PS Cover art not mine, just edited by me PSS This is an original story I wrote — I also wish to thank Stephanie who made this MV for our Serena Charlton ship. If anyone’s interested, please just search in youtube: Serena charlton against all odds Or if you are geoffrey serena shipper she also made these MVs: Geoffrey & Serena part(1) Geoffrey & Serena part(2) Geoffrey & Serena part(3) and Geoffrey & Serena part (4) Thank you!!! — Volume 3 will be dark so if you dont like then just stop reading in volume 2.

The Lucky Farm Girl

After dying unexpectedly, she was reborn as a ten-year-old little girl in an ancient farming family, with barely a few rooms in her house and even fewer acres of land, not to mention a household of the old, weak, sick, and disabled. Fortunately, the elders in the family were kind and honest, her brothers loving and good-natured, and the neighbors harmonious and friendly. For Yang Mengchen, who had suffered from her relatives' torment and endured all sorts of mockery and scolding since she was young, this was truly a blessing from heaven. To support the family she loved, she resolutely took on the heavy responsibility of providing for them. If she, a modern corporate CEO who had once dominated the business world, couldn't feed a family, then who could? Pharmaceutical recipes, building greenhouses, opening storefronts... Not only did her family start living a comfortable and prosperous life, but she also led the surrounding villages in creating a magnificent pastoral scene! With money and fame, as she grew up, Yang Mengchen decided it was time to choose a husband, and thus, young talents from around the world began to flock to her. Who knew a grim-faced god of death would be blocking the entrance to the Yang family's home? "You're too tall, you're too short, you're too fat, you're too skinny, you're too dark, you're too pale, you're uneducated, you're deceitful and sly... All eliminated!" In a moment, the entrance was empty, and Yang Mengchen was instantly furious, "Prince, you've driven everyone away. How am I supposed to choose a husband now?" "I would like to see who dares to marry you. I wouldn't mind sending him to the Underworld as a groom!" Yang Mengchen... A certain Prince counted his merits on his fingers: "I have power, prestige, and substance, no concubines, no secret love affairs, no gallivanting— I embody the standards of a husband's three obediences and four virtues... In short, only I, this unparalleled good man, am worthy of you!" The guards: Oh wise and valiant Prince, is it really good to be so lacking in your role as a husband?
