The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

The original body's life experience is also quite tortuous.

Her father was originally a third-rank minister, and her mother was also a lady from a prominent family.

Unfortunately, when she was seven years old, her mother's family fell into decline because of a crime.

In the past, the higher you stood, the more enemies you would have.

No matter how hard you try to beat a fallen dog, that is the happiest moment for the enemy.

In less than a year, the once prominent family was suppressed and its population declined.

The original mother escaped the disaster because she was a married woman and had a husband who was an official to rely on.

Not having a mother's home is bad news for women in this era.

Especially a prominent family background, which is one of the necessary hard-core conditions for a woman to stand tall in her husband's family.

When the original body was nine years old, the original body's mother received a letter from her mother's side.

It's a letter entrusting an orphan to someone else.

That orphan is the original body’s second son, the one she just called Erlang, whose full name is now Yang Chengjun.

The original body's mother's surname was Li. There were more than one woman who married from that family, but in the end, the original body's mother was the only one who took over the child.

Other married women of the Li family were either unable to take care of themselves or announced the severance of ties with the Li family.

Of course, there was also a group of women who followed after the Li family got into trouble.

Some are voluntary and some are forced to do it.

After all, not everyone has such a strong mentality and is a good husband who doesn't mind having a wife who has committed a crime.

The original body's mother didn't want to adopt Yang Chengjun at that time.

Although he is a member of the Li family, he is not a direct descendant, but a distant branch of the Li family.

If the Li family were still around, the remote side branches might have lived with the main branch for their entire lives.

It was the original body's father who persuaded her mother to accept the child.

It was not a good thing for the couple because the original body's parents had no other children except the original body's daughter.

Because one has no descendants, people will covet his property while he is still alive, and his entire family will be devoured after he dies.

One, because she has no son, can't even hold her head high in this big family of her husband's.

The two hit it off and adopted the child.

However, they still hoped to have their own children at that time. Because Yang Chengjun was actually one generation younger than their daughter, the two decided not to adopt him as a son, but to raise him as an ordinary relative.

When the original body was thirteen years old, his father got a promotion.

This was supposed to be a good thing. Just when the Lin family was still immersed in the joy of her father's promotion, the newly appointed Lord Lin was killed by bandits on the road.

The original body's mother was devastated when she received the news in the capital.

then,

Had a miscarriage.

That was the child that the couple had been looking forward to for so long and finally conceived, but it was gone just like that.

This was undoubtedly a further blow to the original body's mother. She collapsed both mentally and physically, and passed away in less than three months.

It was impossible for a little girl to keep such a huge fortune, and it was all put into the Lin family's harem.

Then the original pampered person began to make a living in the family, taking Yang Chengjun, who had an awkward identity, along with her.

When he was sixteen years old, Yang Xuelin's first wife, whose surname was Su, passed away.

His first wife was the daughter of Lin. Before her death, she left behind a son, who is now Dalang, and his current name is Yang Wenyang.

For the sake of her son, his first wife asked her parents' family to help find a suitable wife for her husband before she died.

In order to maintain a close relationship with the Su family and also to fulfill the last wish of Yang Xuelin's first wife, the original body was targeted.

He has no father and no mother, so he is easy to control.

The most important thing is that as daughters of the Lin family, their clan can save some dowry, which is killing three birds with one stone for the Lin family.

But that’s not the case for the original body.

Life is already difficult, and she is getting married without a dowry, this is not...

It is said that since both daughters of the Lin family are marrying the same husband, they do not need any additional dowry, and the original wife's share is hers.

But, the original wife has a son, so no matter what, she won’t get any share of the dowry. Isn’t this bullying?

In fact, it was just bullying. The orphan girl had no one to complain to when she was bullied, so she had no choice but to get married.

When she got married, she asked to take Yang Chengjun with her, and the Lin family members agreed immediately.

She wanted to take this burden who had nothing to do with the Lin family with her, and the people in the Lin family were eager to pack her up and take her away as well.

They laughed at the original body behind his back, saying that he was stupid and couldn't even gain a foothold in the Su Mansion, and yet he had such a burden to drag him down.

But he didn't know that the original body had asked to take Yang Chengjun with him because Yang Xuelin had agreed.

She thought that with her future husband as a support, her life would be much better.

Who would have known that about a month after the original body had married into the Su Mansion, the real young master Su Anping returned to the Su Mansion.

As a fake young master, Yang Xuelin was driven out of the Su Mansion and returned to Dashan Village.

As Yang Xuelin's wife, she had no way of staying in the Su Mansion, and the Lin family members refused to let her go back. In the end, she had no choice but to follow her husband back to her original family, the Yang family.

So the family of four returned to the mountain village before they even had enough time to adjust to the new environment.

After returning to Dashan Village, the family of four became a family of five.

Just because Su Ping'an's biological daughter Daya, whose real name is Yang Zhixian, was abandoned in Dashan Village by Su Ping'an.

Daya's mother is a distant relative of Old Lady Yang. Even if Su Ping'an abandoned her, the Yang family would not dare to leave her out to fend for herself.

Although she is not the biological granddaughter of the two elders, she is still a distant relative.

Besides, because Daya's mother died early and her biological son became a fake son, the two elders felt guilty towards Daya's mother's relatives and had to continue to support her.

As soon as the original body and her husband came back, the two old people thought that someone had taken over the responsibility of raising Daya, so they stuffed Daya into their home without any care.

So, these people who had no blood relationship became a family by patching together all of them.

Lin Zhi rubbed his temple.

The information about family members alone was enough to give her a headache, and she didn't know how much pain the bunch of memories in her head that hadn't been sorted out must be causing her.

"Mom, go to the house and rest for a while, and let us do the rest."

Dalang saw Lin Zhi rubbing her head and thought she didn't get enough rest, so he couldn't help but speak up.

He was not good at other jobs, but he believed he could do the job of picking beans as long as he had hands.

Lin Zhi really needed to rest, so he didn't force her. He nodded and walked into the house.

As soon as she left, Dalang and Daya continued to pick beans. Erlang followed Lin Zhi's figure with his eyes until he could no longer see her, and then he joined them.

The three of them have been together for about a year. Although they were born in the same year and are the same age, they don't talk much to each other on a daily basis.

Familiar name - not familiar.

Therefore, the longer Lin Zhi lay in the house, the longer the three people outside remained silent.

If it weren't for the occasional coughing sounds, who would have noticed that there were three children there?
