In the hospital ward, Su Nan lay on the hospital bed, her mind involuntarily recalling her life experiences.

When she was eight years old, her father cheated on her, her parents divorced, and she became an abandoned child. In the end, her grandmother couldn't bear to see her like that and took her in to take care of her.

Her maternal grandparents were already struggling financially, and with her presence, their lives became even more difficult.

Later, after graduating and starting work, I thought life would be better. But I was either at work or working overtime every day, exhausting myself to the point of exhaustion. Even so, I didn't earn much money and developed stomach problems, which eventually developed into stomach cancer. By the time it was discovered, it was already in the late stage of stomach cancer, and I had no more than three months to live.

When her parents found out, they rushed to the hospital immediately, but instead of showing concern for her health, they asked her for money and even tried to persuade her to give up treatment, all so that she would save the money for them.

On one occasion, the two happened to meet in the hospital room, and then they had a big argument over the little money she had, which even turned into a fight.

Looking back now, Su Nan still finds it ridiculous.

However, she didn't let them succeed. She donated all 30,000 yuan in her hands to charity in the name of her maternal grandparents.

When her parents found out, they had a rare moment of harmony and gave her a severe scolding. In the end, neither of them came to see her again.

What made her feel fortunate was that her maternal grandparents had passed away two years ago, so they didn't have to feel sad about her passing.

Thinking of this, Su Nan's consciousness gradually faded until the electrocardiogram monitor showed a straight line, and she completely disappeared from this world.

When she regained consciousness, she felt a splitting headache, as if her head was about to explode. Then, a memory that did not belong to her flooded her mind, and it took her a while to recover.

Unexpectedly, she traveled to a fictional dynasty.

The original owner was Su Qianrou, the third young lady of the Marquis of Anping's mansion. Her father was the second master of the mansion, who was currently serving as the prefect of Yangzhou. Her mother was the daughter of a wealthy merchant. Therefore, her family could be said to be powerful and rich, and they had no worries about food or clothing.

In addition, she has an older brother, a younger brother, a concubine, and a half-sister. Apart from her concubine and half-sister being somewhat unfriendly to her, the others doted on her and spoiled her.

"Rou'er, Rou'er."

Just as she was lost in thought, a series of shouts rang in her ears. When she opened her eyes, she saw a very elegantly dressed noblewoman looking at her nervously.

Su Nan was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was the original owner's mother. Logically, she should call her "Mother," but she hadn't gotten used to the change in her identity yet, so she just looked at her quietly without saying a word.

Lin Rong didn't pay much attention, but asked with concern, "Rou'er, how are you feeling? Is there anything that's bothering you?"

"It's nothing, just a bit of a headache."

"You've always been in good health, how could you suddenly become so seriously ill?"

Su Nan roughly knew the reason. Yesterday, the original owner's half-sister brought her a plate of pastries. Originally, the original owner did not want to eat them, but she could not resist her white lotus sister's repeated persuasion, so she ate two pieces. As a result, she started to have a fever that night.

However, Su Nan didn't say it out loud. After all, it was just her guess and there was no evidence to prove it. Moreover, the original owner had always been very good to her half-sister. If she were to say it rashly, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

"I guess I caught a cold," Su Nan casually offered an excuse.

“Yes, it’s only March, and it’s still a bit chilly at night.” Then, Lin Rong turned her gaze to Su Qianrou’s two personal maids and scolded, “Chunzhu, Juxia, how are you taking care of Miss? Don’t you know you should add clothes for her when it’s cold? Is it because Miss is too good to you that you’ve forgotten your duty as servants?”

Chunzhu and Juxia hurriedly knelt down, saying, "We know our sins and beg for your punishment, Madam."

"It's not their fault, it's my fault..."

"You still spoil them. Do you know that the doctor said if you don't wake up this morning, then you will have to prepare for your death."

Lin Rong didn't finish speaking, but Su Nan understood what she meant. However, this really had nothing to do with them. "I'm awake now, so don't worry about me."

Seeing that she was ill but still pleaded for the two maids, Lin Rong sighed helplessly. Then she looked at Chunzhu and Juxia and said, "Although Rou'er pleaded for you, it is a fact that you neglected your duties and must be punished. Therefore, you will be fined one month's salary. If there is a next time, you will not be let off lightly."

"Yes, thank you for your kindness, Madam... Miss Xie."

"Get up quickly," Su Nan couldn't bear to see them kneeling in front of her.

Just then, the original owner's half-sister walked in, feigning sadness, "Sister, sister, you..."

Su Wanshan had thought that Su Qianrou would be lying motionless on the bed, looking like she was about to die. Unexpectedly, she woke up, which surprised her greatly, so she stood there stunned for a moment.

"Why does my sister have that expression? Is she unhappy that I'm awake?"

Her reaction made Su Nan even more convinced that the original owner's illness was related to her.

"How could that be? I'm naturally happy that my sister is awake," Su Wanshan said, walking to the bedside and bowing to Lin Rong, "Daughter greets Mother."

"What are you doing here?" Lin Rong asked, not wanting to hear her.

"My daughter heard that her older sister was sick, so she came to visit her."

"Now that you've finished reading, you can leave."

"Mother, did I do something wrong that makes you so displeased? You won't even look at me. Please tell me, and I will definitely change," Su Wanshan said, looking at her with a wronged expression and a slightly tearful voice, appearing very sad.

She waited for a long time but Su Qianrou didn't speak up for her, so she looked at her and saw that she looked indifferent, which puzzled her.

Normally, Su Qianrou would definitely have spoken up for her, but now, in front of her was Su Nan from the 21st century, so how could she not see through her clumsy tactics?

"Sister," Su Wanshan called out again, unwilling to give up.

"Is there anything else, little sister?"

“You…” Su Wanshan wanted to say something, but with Lin Rong still there, she could only reluctantly say, “No.”

"Oh, then you should go back first, little sister. I'm a bit sleepy."

"Then I'll go back first, sister, please get some rest."

"Ok".

Then, Su Wanshan went out.

Lin Rong looked at Su Nan and asked in confusion, "Why aren't you speaking up for her this time?"

"Perhaps a serious illness has made me see through some things."

Although Lin Rong had her doubts, she didn't ask any further questions.
