After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes

Grandpa Feng led his family to the Beijing train station, where Xiao Ming, the driver arranged by Feng Changqing, was already waiting.

Looking at the bustling metropolis, Jiang Xiuxi felt that the pent-up frustration in her heart had not only not dissipated, but had become even more intense and inescapable.

The city's hustle and bustle, its vibrant prosperity, should be something she, as Feng Changqing's first wife, should enjoy.

Who would have thought that Feng Changqing would be so heartless, even though he left the Feng family with Tong Xiangxiang, he still insisted on giving her a letter of divorce.

Ever since the New Party was established, Chiang Hsiu-hsi had held onto a tiny bit of hope, since the New Party supported monogamous marriage.

The excitement she felt upon learning of the new government's enactment of the new marriage law, and the despair she felt upon discovering that Feng Changqing had already divorced her—Jiang Xiuxi's dramatic emotional rollercoaster at that time is still vivid in her memory.

Once inside the compound, Jiang Xiuxi was delighted by the picturesque scenery, the clean and tidy streets, and the newly built old-style villas.

Thinking that Tong Xiangxiang's concubine had lived in such a beautiful house all these years, Jiang Xiuxi gritted her teeth. How could she be willing to accept this?

These things should have belonged to Jiang Xiuxi...

Not to mention Jiang Xiuxi had never seen it before, even the well-traveled and knowledgeable Grandpa Feng had never seen it before!

He was familiar with the houses outside the compound, but once inside, Grandpa Feng felt like he was in the foreign concession.

However, seeing that every household had various familiar vegetables and grains planted in front of their doors, instead of those fancy but useless flowers, Grandpa Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, the people's true nature as masters of their own country remains; the land should be used to grow grains, not to display precious flowers and plants for show.

The staff member who was leading the Feng family to the door of Minister Feng's house said respectfully, "Uncle Feng and Aunt Feng, this is the Feng family's home!" After saying that, he saluted.

Then, he thoughtfully knocked on the symbolically blocked courtyard gate.

As Old Master Feng observed where his son lived, he finally felt relieved. It seemed that Chang Qing had held a very high position all these years.

Aunt Hu, who was cleaning, heard a noise at the door and immediately put down what she was doing and ran out to see who it was.

She only recognized Zhu Fugui, who was on duty today, so she asked, "Fugui, is there something you need?"

Zhu Fugui smiled sheepishly on his honest face and explained, "Aunt Hu, these are Minister Feng's parents and cousin. Comrade Tong told us before he went to work today, so I brought them here to get acquainted with the family."

"Well... the leaders aren't home, and the children are all at school. I'm not sure if these people are the leaders' parents."

Mr. Feng quickly stepped forward and said, "It's alright, we can just go inside and wait for my son and daughter-in-law to get off work."

Although Aunt Hu was unsure, seeing Grandpa Feng's confident expression, she figured the gatekeeper wouldn't dare let them in unless he was sure of their identities, so she let them in.

Sure enough, when Xiangxiang came home from get off work, she saw Mr. and Mrs. Feng and Jiang Xiuxi and her son sitting on the sofa chatting and laughing!

It's no wonder Xiangxiang thought that way; she was immediately drawn to the little boy on the sofa and Jiang Xiuxi as soon as she entered the living room!

.........

The Feng family here was incredibly lively because of the arrival of Old Master Feng and his entourage.

Looking at Mei Bilian over there, she had come to the compound hoping to try her luck and see if she could meet the male lead and leave him with an unforgettable impression.

Little did she know that as soon as she stepped out of the house, she was pinned to the ground and severely beaten by her second sister's suitor, who claimed that he was standing up for his sweetheart.

It turns out that after Mei Bilian transmigrated, she didn't just passively accept her fate in the Mei family like the original owner did, spending her days helping her family with laundry and cooking.

Now things are really messed up; the family isn't used to their free laborer suddenly becoming disobedient.

Recently, things have been quite turbulent in the Mei family, with chaos and commotion every day. So, Mei's second sister casually complained to one of her suitors, and he remembered it.

And that's exactly what happened.

Mei Bilian was far weaker than the man, so she instinctively protected her vital parts and just curled up to be beaten.

The man who hit her, though not entirely heartless, saw that Mei Bilian didn't fight back and didn't want to harm another woman. He warned Mei Bilian a couple of times and then left.

When Mei Bilian returned home, she found that there was hardly anyone there. The adults had all gone to work, and the children were on holiday and playing outside every day.

Mei Bilian didn't bother to treat her injuries. She endured the pain and squatted at the door like a little puppy, waiting for the culprit to appear.

Sure enough, as soon as he saw her second sister, Mei Bihua, he pounced on her like a hungry tiger, knocking her to the ground and giving her a good beating.

"Ahhh, Mom, save me! Has the third brother gone mad? He hits me the moment he sees me!"

As soon as Old Lady Mei stepped into the house, she saw the two rascals fighting. She grabbed a strip that was placed by the door and lashed it at them menacingly.

"I've been worrying myself sick over this family every day, and you little brats have the nerve to fight and play around! You're a bunch of troublemakers who never let me rest!"

As soon as Mei Bilian saw Old Lady Mei appear, she knew something was wrong. She quickly released the second son she had been pressing on the ground and, like a nimble little rabbit, swiftly dodged the flying stripe.

Mei Bilian was too lazy to explain why she hit Mei Bihua; anyway, no one cared, and it would be pointless to explain.

The Mei family has five children: three daughters and two sons. They live entirely on the meager wages of the Mei family's father and mother, and all five children are still in school.

Therefore, the Mei family faced immense pressure and limited resources, leading to each of the five children harboring their own secrets. As for the children's squabbles, Old Madam Mei was too lazy to distinguish right from wrong; a beating would suffice to resolve the matter.

There used to be an honest and hardworking person in the family, and the family was relatively "harmonious." But recently, this honest person has actually started to rebel, and things have become more unsettled in the family.

Mei Bilian used to be notorious for bullying the weak and fearing the strong. She was bullied badly by her older siblings at home, but she would pretend to be pitiful when she went out.

Especially since their place is not far from where the children of the compound live, and they mostly attend schools in the same area, the children grow up listening to their parents' stories at home.

She had a slight "protective instinct" towards people with pitiful backgrounds. Little Mei Bilian got along with Feng Yixin from the Feng family in the compound by relying on her tragic background and her ability to read people's expressions.
