Quick Transmigration: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack, A Guide to Cunning Strat

They soon arrived at the back of the mountain, and Xu Shuwan began to think about the next steps.

First and foremost, we need to improve the original owner's diet. The original owner was far too thin; at sixteen, he was even thinner than a twelve or thirteen-year-old, and needed proper nutrition. He certainly wouldn't get good food at the Xu family's house, so we had to find a way to get some meat.

Just as she was thinking this, a pheasant rushed out of the bushes and crashed headfirst into the wooden post in front of Xu Shuwan, killing itself.

Xu Shuwan was astonished. It's so effective?

[Oh my god, I knew it! The "lucky koi" skill really works! Wanwan, quickly stew this chicken and give it a good nourishing meal.]

(But I've never handled a chicken with feathers on before, and I don't remember seeing it in the original owner's memories either. What should I do?) Xu Shuwan picked up the chicken somewhat blankly.

【It's okay, Wanwan. We'll just make beggar's chicken. We can just coat it with mud. I'll provide you with the recipe, and the specific steps are in the recipe too.】

(Okay, thank you Qiqi.)

You're welcome~

Xu Shuwan found some edible mushrooms and some beauty-enhancing herbs under the tree roots. She found a sharp stone and processed the pheasant by the stream.

After a hearty meal that solved her future food problem, Xu Shuwan gathered some firewood and waited until the smell of meat on her clothes dissipated before going home.

As soon as she stepped into the house, a broom swept towards her head. Unable to dodge in time, Xu Shuwan could only barely protect her head and take the first blow. After that, she imitated the original owner of the body, fearfully covering her head and squatting on the ground, using the bamboo basket on her body to slightly shield herself.

Grandma Xu hit her while cursing, "You brat, where were you hiding this afternoon, being lazy? You didn't do any work in the fields, and you didn't wash any clothes at home. You've really gone too far! You're not eating today either."

The children from the eldest and third wives' families jumped around, clapping and shouting, "Bad luck, bad luck!"

Grandma Xu had only hit her a couple of times when she suddenly strained her back. Uncle Liu's youngest son tripped and fell, causing the other children to tumble and fall as well. Grandma Xu felt extremely unlucky, but she was too weak to hit her anymore. Still angry, she threw the broom at Xu Shuwan and cursed, "You jinx!"

Grandpa Xu also spoke up, "Alright, hurry up and cook, everyone's hungry."

Grandma Xu then went to the kitchen, supporting her back.

Grandma Xu always carried the kitchen key with her, worried that Xu Shuwan or her two daughters-in-law might steal food, and also worried that they might cook extravagantly, so she always personally oversaw every meal.

After Grandma Xu left, Xu Shuwan slowly stood up, and could only gasp softly when she accidentally aggravated her wound.

Although I wasn't hit many times before, and the bamboo basket provided some protection, the first blow was a real one.

After putting the firewood away in the woodshed, she slowly moved to the small bed inside, which was really just two wooden planks.

After Xu Shuwan's parents passed away, Grandma Xu decided to divide the second wife's room equally between the children of the first and third wives, while the original owner was relegated to the woodshed.

When the original owner grew up a little, washing dishes, doing laundry, feeding chickens, and gathering firewood all became her responsibilities. In addition, she also needed to go to the fields every day to earn work points. After a hard day's work, she could only get a cornbread as her food.

The children of the first and third wives were all well-fed and chubby thanks to the pension subsidies from their father.

Xu Shuwan lay on the bed and sighed softly. There was still nearly a week before Lin Shuya and Song Qinian went to the countryside, so she had to maintain the original owner's persona for now.

"You brat, come and wash the dishes! I don't know how many times a day I have to be told to. You're getting lazier and lazier."

Grandma Xu's loud voice soon rang out again, and Xu Shuwan had no choice but to get up and go back to work.

While working, Xu Shuwan would take a break to recall the plot of Song Qinian.

Song Qinian was born into a wealthy family. His father became the factory director through his maternal grandfather's connections, and he and his mother were also in a loving relationship for a period of time.

However, after his maternal grandfather passed away, his mother, whose health was already poor, became even weaker and soon passed away as well.

Unexpectedly, three months later, his father remarried, and his stepmother moved in with a noticeable pregnant belly. Song Qinian was only eight years old that year.

After that, he pretended to know nothing, treating Song's father and stepmother with polite manners, watching them act like clowns, trying every means to seize the inheritance left to him by his maternal grandfather (who only had his mother as a child), while secretly investigating Song's father.

Finally, when he was eighteen, he secretly sold off all of his maternal grandfather's inconvenient inheritance, sent the evidence he had collected of Song's father's embezzlement and abuse of power to his rivals, and then chose to go to the countryside as an educated youth.

Song Qinian lived in Xujia Village for a short period of time. After the college entrance examination was reinstated, he was admitted to A University and left the village. Later, he became a well-known home appliance tycoon in China with his accumulated funds and his intelligence.

Lin Shuya and Song Qinian were sent to the countryside in the same batch.

Lin Shuya also saw Song Qinian's future achievements in the book. However, although he seemed gentle and refined, he was actually cold-hearted and kept people at arm's length. Even the help that the original owner mentioned was just a polite gesture.

After failing to reach an agreement, Lin Shuya had no choice but to give up on him as a powerful ally and instead choose to take over the original owner's identity.

Xu Shuwan lowered her eyes. It seemed that Song Qinian was not easy to win over, especially with the constraints of the original owner's character. There were many things she couldn't do, so she could only try to win him over slowly.
