Quick Transmigration: The main focus is on speed.

Your brother has a harder life. Unlike you, he's not as capable or earns as much. You have everything, you lack nothing. Of course, I feel more sorry for your brother...

"If I live a similar life to my sister, will Mom treat us equally? If not, please love my sister more..." Qi Yuan was startled when Qi Yuan suddenly came back to life, thinking that something had happened to this guy again.

Qi Yuan: Oh no, brother, just how many bad things have you done? Did you go to save people or cause them trouble? Speechless.

There were too many things to complain about, and Qi Yuan hadn't even figured out where to start before Qi Yuan lay down again.

Qi Yuan: So I'm just destined to be this sucker!

Four-year-old Qi Yuan stood by the hospital bed, watching her mother try to turn her head to look to the side. Her eyes were full of maternal love and affection, showing no signs of the estrangement between mother and daughter after more than thirty years.

"We are a blessed family with both a son and a daughter. What name should we give our little girl?" Father Qi squatted by the bedside, looking at his youngest daughter as if she were a rare treasure.

Qi Yuan looked at his sister, who resembled a red-skinned mouse, wondering if his parents and the person he saw were the same person.

"You brat, what kind of look is that?" Qi's father turned around and saw Qi Yuan's disgusted look, and immediately gave him a loving pat.

"Mom, your husband is going to beat your son so badly he'll be stupid! Please save your precious son!" The blow wasn't heavy; it was more like a light touch. But Qi Yuan still rushed to his mother's side, howling like a banshee.

"Feiyuan! Why are you hitting your son for no reason?"

"Wife, you don't know, the way that boy looked at Nannan just now was so disgusted. He even looked down on his sister. He was much uglier than Nannan when he was born, but we didn't look down on him, did we?" The father became more and more guilty as he spoke.

When Qi Yuan looked at her with those inquisitive eyes, it was really hard for her mother to say that Qi Yuan was pretty when she was little. She raised her hand and patted Qi Yuan's little head, opening and closing her mouth a few times, but she didn't say anything in denial.

Qi Yuan: No wonder, these two are both so honest. No wonder they can be so open about their favoritism with their little sister. Sigh... the road ahead is long and arduous.

Watching Qi Si grow up day by day, from a red-skinned mouse to a fair and tender glutinous rice ball, Qi Yuan felt more and more that his younger sister was the most adorable person in the world, without exception.

When Qi Si was three years old, the Qi family was of average means. They weren't particularly well-off, but at least they had enough to eat and drink and wouldn't go hungry.

Qi Yuan watched as his mother rummaged through her old clothes for Qi Si, then turned to look for his father.

"Dad, Mom is going through my old clothes again. I've never seen my little sister wear a dress! All the other little sisters wear dresses, but my little sister doesn't. My heart is pounding..." As she spoke, Qi Yuan covered her chest with her hand, pretending to be in unbearable pain, which amused her father greatly.

“Okay, eldest son, you can act like that in front of your mother in a bit, but cover the left side, the heart is on the left.”

The father and son sneaked into the house. Qi's mother was rummaging through drawers and cabinets. Qi Si was wearing clothes that Qi Yuan wore when he was a child. He had short hair and sat obediently on a small stool, entertaining himself. He looked like a tomboy no matter how you looked at him.

"Hey, I saw Old Li when I went out today. Guess what Old Li said?" Qi's father composed himself and sighed softly. Qi Yuan immediately followed suit with a bitter little face and sighed as well.

"What are you two doing here causing trouble? Can't you see I'm busy?" Mother Qi didn't want to pay attention to them at first, but the sighs behind her were getting on her nerves, so she had to stop rummaging through the drawers and looked at the father and son with an impatient expression.

“Look at our Sisi, when I took her out today, people thought we had two sons! I was too embarrassed to say that Sisi is a girl. What little girl keeps a buzz cut every day and wears her brother's old clothes?!”

"That's right, that's right. My classmates also asked me if I have a younger brother. Mom, you don't know that other people's little sisters have always had little dresses and long hair since they were little, and they are so cute. Why does my sister look like a younger brother? Could it be that Sisi is a younger brother?"

The father and son talked back and forth, leaving Mrs. Qi stunned. It took her a while to realize that the two of them were saying that she was not good to Sisi.

"Can't you two talk things out properly? Why do you have to beat around the bush? I'm Sisi's biological mother! I carried her for ten months and gave birth to her, how could I really treat her badly? Who didn't wear their older siblings' clothes when they were little? Besides, children's skin is delicate, wearing Qi Yuan's old clothes is perfect, it won't chafe their skin..."

The more Qi's mother talked, the more convinced she became. As for why she kept Qi Si's hair short, wasn't it because short hair was convenient? With so much work to do at home, how could she have time to comb Qi Si's hair in the morning?

Besides, what's wrong with raising them a bit rough? Isn't that how Qi Yuan grew up?

"Mom, I understand! You teach me, and I'll get up a little earlier every day to comb Sisi's hair, making sure Sisi looks beautiful every day!"

"You? Don't be so inconsistent!" Qi's mother rolled her eyes at Qi Yuan, but seeing the determination on Qi Yuan's face, she still agreed.

"Even your son knows that helping me share the burden is the only way to achieve my goal, but what about you?"

"Hey, how about I cut down on a pack of cigarettes every week and save up to buy our daughter a dress?" Mr. Qi said through gritted teeth, imagining Sisi running out to greet him in a princess dress.

“One pack a week won’t do. Kids grow so fast. Their clothes will be too small in no time. Either you quit smoking, or you let Sisi wear Qi Yuan’s old clothes. You decide.” Qi’s mother had long disliked Qi’s father’s smoking. It smelled terrible every day, especially his mouth after smoking. It smelled like tobacco oil, and she felt nauseous every time she smelled it.

"Dad? Didn't you say you love Sisi the most? Can't you even quit smoking? And it's just quitting smoking, right? A real man can do it! So that Sisi can wear little dresses, Dad promises Mom!" Qi Yuan saw Qi's father's hesitation, and showered him with praise and compliments until he was completely swayed and actually agreed.

A month later, Qi Si put on a little dress she had never worn before, smiling sweetly, with the two little buns on her head swaying with her movements.

Time flies, and Qi Si will be a primary school student tomorrow.

In the afternoon, Qi Yuan went home early. After dinner, he and his parents accompanied Qi Si on a walk of the route from school to home over and over again.

As the sun sets, a family of four strolls leisurely along the road. Two children walk hand in hand in front of them, while the two adults watch over them arm in arm, creating a sense of peaceful tranquility.

Qi Yuan had noticed the problem with these parents before. Qi's mother had an instinctive maternal love for both children, but perhaps because she had never received fair and equal love since childhood, she and her children naturally learned from her mother.

When the children are young, the mother favors the younger one. For example, if there was only one egg when they were young, Qi's mother would make Qi Yuan give it to Qi Si. But when the children grow up, Qi's mother tends to dote on the less capable one, which is the original owner of the body in her previous life.

This led Qi Si to later feel that her mother favored her brother and didn't love her as much. However, she didn't know that when she was little, her mother loved her more than her brother. Whose fault was it? Was it the original owner's low intelligence? Lack of ability? Or was it her mother's fault for not treating them equally?

As Qi Si grew up, she understood all of this, but she just couldn't accept that her mother didn't love her the way she loved her brother. But with Qi Yuan's arrival, wasn't that a sign of competence? Wasn't that a sign of living well? He might not be good at other things, but he could do this.

As for Qi's father, in Qi Yuan's view, he didn't love the two children much, and he also didn't love himself well. For him, both Qi's mother and the two children were his responsibilities, and he just needed to do what he was supposed to do in this life.

Therefore, in Qi Si's previous life, her father always treated her and her brother the same.

Such a father, at best, treats both children equally; at worst, he could abandon them at any time.

So when Qi Yuan discovered this, she started to ask Qi's father to do something for the family, and afterwards she would ask Qi's mother and Qi Si to give Qi's father feedback.

In short, Qi Yuan believed that this family would be doomed sooner or later without him.

When Qi Si was in her first year of high school, Qi Yuan was admitted to university. On the day she received her admission notice, the family of four celebrated at home. Because she was happy, Qi Si even tried to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Although Qi Yuan had already cooked the eggs, Qi Si only needed to put the tomatoes and eggs in and stir-fry them.

"Let's have a toast to Qi Yuan's acceptance letter today!" We celebrated the same thing when Qi Yuan received her acceptance letter a while ago, so we're doing it again now, and we already know the process.

After the words of congratulations, praise, and gratitude were finished, the family ate dinner together in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Just as everyone had finished eating and was about to leave the table, Mother Qi mysteriously took a file folder from the bedroom and returned to the dining table.

"Sisi, your brother wants a Coke. Can you go buy him an iced Coke?" Qi Yuan knew what her mother was going to say as soon as she saw her mother's expression. Not wanting Qi Si to know these things so early, Qi Yuan still spoke up to try and send Qi Si away.

"You sent your sister out to buy Coke so late at night? Aren't you afraid she'll run into bad people? If you want to go, wait until I finish speaking and go yourself. Stop ordering your sister around!" Qi's mother grabbed Qi Si, who was about to get up and leave, and pushed her back into a chair. She didn't forget to glare at Qi Yuan.

As for Qi's mother, if you say she doesn't love Qi Si, she wouldn't let Qi Si go out to buy Coke, even though it's only 6:30 and it's not dark yet. If you say she loves Qi Si, then the file folder is full of documents for Qi Yuan, none of them belong to Qi Si, and Qi's mother doesn't intend to hide it from Qi Si.

Qi Yuan was speechless and helpless.

“You’re an adult now. This is the house your parents have prepared for you over the years. It’s not a big house, and it’s not decorated yet. It’s located in…” As she spoke, Qi’s mother took out a property certificate, opened it, and Qi Yuan’s name was written on it.

“These are insurance policies for your father and me, and your name is listed as the beneficiary in both. In case something happens to your father or me someday…”

"Oh, by the way, Qi Si's insurance policy is also in your name..."

Qi's mother kept nagging as she took out one document after another from the file folder and handed them to Qi Yuan.

Qi's father and Qi Si listened without saying a word.

"What about Sisi's? Will it also be given to her when she comes of age?" Qi Yuan asked, receiving a shocked look from Qi Si.

"Sisi will get married someday, why prepare a house for her? You are the one who belongs to the Qi family... Sisi will become an outsider after she gets married..."

"Could it be that Qi Si doesn't have the surname Qi? Isn't he a member of our Qi family? If we're talking about the only outsider, it's you, Mom, right? You don't have the surname Qi..." Qi Yuan didn't finish his sentence because it was too harsh, but even that had already changed Qi's mother's expression. She pointed at Qi Yuan's nose and scolded him for being an ingrate and unfilial.

"Dad, what do you think? Do you also think Sisi will become an outsider in the future?" Qi's father did not express any opinion throughout the process. He also felt that something was wrong about this matter, but he couldn't explain what was wrong. He just felt that something was wrong. Now he realized that, yes, does Qi Si not have the surname Qi after she gets married?

"Dad, Mom, I'm not an outsider. I won't get married anymore, okay? Please don't abandon me." At this moment, Qi Si was terrified. This was the first time she had faced her mother's deep-seated preference for sons over daughters, and the first time she realized that her mother didn't love her as much as she loved her brother.

"If Sisi doesn't have it, I won't take it either. You can give it to whoever you want!" Qi Yuan saw that Qi Si was crying and didn't want to say anything more. He pulled Qi Si out of the house.

"Sisi, be good. Big brother is here. Big brother loves Sisi the most. Big brother promises that whatever big brother has, Sisi will have too..."
