Transmigrating as the Cannon-Fodder Stepmother of a Period Novel's Male Lead

Sun Qing woke up to find she had everything everyone else could ever dream of having. She had money, a house, a car, a son, and a cheap husband. Everything was ready-made. She thought she had achieved her happy ending without ever having to work, but who knew she'd transmigrate into a period novel and become the mistress who'd make the male lead cheat before dying just three years into the marriage? Sun Qing: I definitely won't act like a stupid woman. Can't I just focus on making money? She casually got into the renovating business. Her interior designs became wildly successful, and many material suppliers began to approach her with checks so that she would offer them guidance. She'd travel around the lake when she had free time with other rich women. She bought several plots of land there. In less than a month, the market value of those plots of land increased by several hundred times. The rich women all entrusted their wealth to Sun Qing and begged her to invest on their behalf. *** Running multiple businesses and making a lot of money, Sun Qing was so busy that she began to lose patience after waiting a long time. 'Why isn't he here to pick me up yet?' One day, Jiang Hui pressed Sun Qing against the bedroom door. There was a dangerous look in his eyes. "I heard you've been talking behind my back as of late." Sun Qing was slightly terrified. She quickly shook her head. "It wasn't me. I didn't do that. Don't make things up!"

Transmigration!

編輯: Atlas Studios

Clang, clang, clang… There was the sound of urgent banging on the door, followed by a middle-aged woman's impatient curses.

"Damn it, why did I marry such a lazy woman? It's fine if you don't serve the entire family, but you have to make me wake you up. What sin did I commit in my previous life? Why did I take things too hard and bring back someone so amateur? You're lazy and greedy. Get up quickly and cook. Do you want to starve us to death…"

Sun Qing looked around the house with dull eyes. It was so dark that the beams of the house were unrecognizable. The wood wasn't straight either, when they were about to reach the middle section, they turned a corner and leaned toward the trees on their crooked necks. It was like this everywhere else.

Turning around again, she saw the only furniture in the house. It was a wooden cabinet with a crippled leg that was also pitch-black. Several holes had rotted in the wood on the tabletop, and one corner was missing.

The banging outside didn't stop. She suspected that if the knocking continued, the door would be knocked down!

The rumbling of drums in her stomach was a constant reminder for her to accept reality.

She was now Sun Qing. She had transmigrated into a book and had even become cannon fodder in the era's literature. She was a paper effigy who had appeared in the first chapter to set off the gentle and kind female lead. She hadn't been introduced for more than a sentence, and she still remembered those words.

Selfish, stupid, and ruthless!

Unworthy of being called a person!

God knew that two days ago, she was a good young lady with good studies, a good job, and a good family background. But now, when she woke up, she was a married woman.

Not only was she married, but she was also someone's stepmother.

Her second marriage partner was called Jiang Huai, who had a 17-year-old son. Jiang Huai was the male lead of the era. He was a successful businessman, rich, and handsome. He was so perfect that he almost didn't look like a product of the era, but a domineering CEO in the future.

She was already married, her partner was outstanding enough, and he had even brought a child along. Her life should have been satisfactory until the end, but her marriage was lonely.

Did the male lead not know that getting married was considered marriage?

This matter was directly related to the middle-aged woman who was knocking on the door outside. Tian Cuilan, her stepmother-in-law, was also the male lead's stepmother. She used his filial piety as an excuse to make the call for his engagement, betrothal, and marriage. From the first to the last step, the male lead didn't participate in the entire process. When the original owner of Sun Qing's body got married, she barely even knew the male lead.

If it were an ordinary person, the woman's family would definitely not be willing to do such a strange thing. However, the original host's parents had agreed. Not only did they not ask for a single cent of betrothal gifts, but they also gave her a lot of things. Just what she knew consisted of four blankets, a catty of fruit candy, two baskets of eggs, and one salted fish.

Sun Qing vomited blood at the thought of it. How was this marrying off their daughter? It was simply throwing their daughter at the male lead!

However, the old couple from the Sun family were still happy. On their wedding day, everyone in the surrounding villages knew that their daughter was married to a big shot.

Just this alone made the people in the surrounding villages extremely envious. Of course, Tian Cuilan also contributed. If not for her constant urging, the old couple from the Sun family wouldn't have agreed so quickly.

There was another most important reason. The male lead, Jiang Huai, was really capable. When he was in his teens, he carried a clay knife and went to the county city to be a mason with the people from the same village. With his intelligence and agility, he gradually fought his way from a mason to a contractor. After more than ten years of hard work, he was now one of the top contractors in the county. The old couple thought that their daughter would definitely live in the lap of luxury after getting married to Jiang Huai. She wouldn't have to work and might even have a little nanny to serve her.

Anyone would rush to do such a beautiful thing!

In the book, Jiang Huai had a smooth career, and his son also inherited his good genes. With the joint efforts of the father and son, the corporation became an ironclad leading company by the time the finale was over. Its personal assets even occupied the top of the wealth rankings all year round. Unfortunately, such a perfect man had a poor emotional line.

The first marriage was arranged by his family, but his first wife passed away after giving birth to Jiang Hai. The second marriage partner was Sun Qing, who was 13 years younger than Jiang Huai. Because Jiang Huai was on a business trip all year round and she had been suppressed by her stepmother-in-law, she had an extramarital heart and ran away with a rich businessman. Unexpectedly, the rich businessman was actually a hooligan in disguise. Not only did he cheat Sun Qing of all her money, but he also sold her to an old cripple in the mountains as a wife. When Sun Qing ran, she fell into a mountain stream and died. When she died, she wasn't even 24 years old.
