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

The good times didn't last long. Lin Shuya heard the news that Grandma Xu had already found a partner for Xu Shuwan.

It is said that she has her eye on a man from the county who is mentally challenged, but whose parents are both working professionals and only have him as their son.

So they wanted to find an obedient daughter-in-law to carry on the family line and also work as a housekeeper. They were offering a generous dowry.

I heard that Grandma Xu was very satisfied and planned to take Xu Shuwan to the county to meet her in a few days.

Although Lin Shuya was happy to see Xu Shuwan marry a mentally challenged man, if Xu Shuwan stayed in the county afterward, the chances of them being recognized would greatly increase.

Lin Shuya could only hurry up and make Grandma Xu give up this idea, and it would be best to keep Xu Shuwan in the village forever, so that she would never have to leave the village.

[Wanwan, Lin Shuya has pulled another sly trick. She found a matchmaker and sent her to Wang Mazi's house to propose marriage. Wang Mazi has already been persuaded, and soon a matchmaker will come to the Xu family to propose marriage.]

(She did indeed go after Wang Mazi.) A knowing glint flashed in Xu Shuwan's eyes.

In the original storyline, Lin Shuya paid a matchmaker to talk to Wang Mazi.

Wang Mazi, who lived at the end of the village, was a butcher. He had been married once before, but he was ashamed of his lameness and worried that his wife would run away with someone else. So he kept her locked at home all year round and would beat her if she did anything wrong. In the end, she couldn't stand such a life and committed suicide at home.

This incident caused quite a stir at the time, and no one in the village who even slightly loved their daughters dared to marry them off to him anymore.

After that, he spent money to buy several wives, but these wives either ran away or were beaten to death, and none of them had children.

Later, even people from neighboring villages heard about his situation, and no one helped him find a wife anymore.

Lin Shuya took advantage of his refusal to let his wife go out, wanting to kill Xu Shuwan at home, which is why she spent money to hire a matchmaker to arrange a marriage for him.

Wang Mazi is getting old, and his desire to find another wife to carry on his family line is growing stronger, but he is troubled by the fact that no one is willing to marry him.

He was willing to spend more money if the Xu family agreed to let Xu Shuwan marry into the family.

Grandma Xu is a person who only cares about money and not people. As long as the money is right, she doesn't care if Xu Shuwan dies outside.

All these factors combined to their advantage, which led to the original owner's tragic life.

【Wanwan, what do we do now? Should we ask Song Qinian for help?】

(Song Qinian is looking for me, but not now. It's also a good time for me to get rid of the Xu family completely.)

A few days later, Wang, the matchmaker, entered the Xu family home in a lively manner to propose marriage.

"Oh, Sister Xu, it's been a long time! I heard you're looking for a husband for your eldest granddaughter. Well, I happen to have one here, so I came to find you."

Matchmaker Wang waved her handkerchief and warmly took Grandma Xu's hand.

"Oh, it's Matchmaker Wang! You're too late. I've already found someone I like. I'll tidy up my house in a few days and take him over to meet his parents. That should be about it."

Grandma Xu tried to pull her hand away, but couldn't, so she just let her go.

"Oh, sister, don't worry. I've heard about it too, but the bride price in the city is only this much. I'm willing to pay this much."

Matchmaker Wang held up three fingers and showed them to Grandma Xu.

"Three hundred!? Really? Who would be willing to pay that much for my dog? Sister Wang, don't try to fool me."

Grandma Xu was immediately captivated and began to act affectionately towards Matchmaker Wang, calling her "sister" and "little sister" repeatedly.

"Would I lie to you? It's just that Wang Mazi from the end of your village. If you agree, he'll give you 50 first, and he'll pay the rest when he comes to pick you up."

Matchmaker Wang took out five ten-yuan bills from her pocket.

“Well, he’s already had several wives who have died, and they’re almost as old as me. If I marry him, I’ll lose face.”

Grandma Xu hesitated for a moment, but her eyes were fixed on the money.

"Hey, sister, isn't this guy in your family a jinx to his parents? He's got a really tough fate. Wouldn't it be perfect for him to marry into the Wang family? Maybe he'll even give the Wang family a son next year. Besides, isn't the one you found in the city also..."

Matchmaker Wang lowered her voice, pointed to her head, and said, "Wang Mazi has already assured me that what happened before will never happen again. In that case, why would you turn down money, right?"

Matchmaker Wang stuffed the money in her hand into Grandma Xu's hand.

Grandma Xu was indeed tempted by the money. Without much politeness, she agreed to the marriage after being persuaded by Matchmaker Wang. However, it was not a good thing to talk about this, so she instructed, "They said when they need someone. Tell them to make a small fuss when they come."

"Hey, I knew you were a straightforward girl. They'll be back in three days to ask for people. Don't worry, they'll pick a time when there aren't many people around. Remember to talk to your family and make sure they don't cry and whine. They'll be happy too, won't they?"

"That makes sense, that makes sense." Grandma Xu stuffed some melon seeds into Granny Wang's hand and saw her out.

After walking away, Granny Wang looked at the melon seeds in her hand, then spat them out. She thought to herself that Granny Xu was a scoundrel. They were from the same village, and everyone would know that she was selling her granddaughter. She dared to do it but was trying to cover it up. She had the nerve to pretend to be something she wasn't.

Although she was the one who arranged the match, thinking about the two sums of money given to her by Lin Zhiqing and Wang Mazi, she felt at ease and left while eating sunflower seeds.
