When the original owner was abused by her stepbrother and sister-in-law, the villagers in Jianjia Village did not stand up for her. Now that Jian Jia had beaten He Xiaohong violently, the villagers who asked the original owner to calm down the incident also told He Xiaohong: It is inevitable for the family to have conflicts, not to mention that she was wrong in this matter in the first place, so just forget it.
After all, it doesn't hurt if the knife doesn't pierce you, we are all just happy people.
Seeing the villagers helping the crying He Xiaohong leave, Jian Jia pursed her lips and lowered her eyes to cover the coldness in her eyes.
After the spectators dispersed, Jian Jia sat under the shade of a tree, holding a bamboo tube and drinking water slowly. In the fragrance of wheat straw, she carefully combed through the plot of the original book that she remembered.
In the novel, the original protagonist is a love-minded peasant girl who is ambitious, bitter, and already married. She despises her husband, a hunter who rescued her from the quagmire, and is obsessed with Xu Lingsheng, a famous scholar from all over the country. She stalks, rubs and nudges him, and does her best to do what a vicious female partner should do.
When Jian Jia came through, the original owner was still a virgin girl and did not know her husband. Although her family suffered changes at this time, she still dreamed of marrying her sweetheart.
Then why did you marry Orion Qin Yi? Now let’s talk about her gambling stepbrother.
After Jian Xiaoqiang adopted Jian's family, his living standard skyrocketed. He visited more and more casinos and bet bigger and bigger. Some time ago, he lost a large sum of money in gambling, and fearing that his hands and feet would be chopped off by the people in the casino, he considered marrying the original owner and going out to get her bride price.
In the novel, after the original owner learned of this incident, she was at a loss for words, fearing that she would never be able to be with Xu Lingsheng, the scholar she was infatuated with, since she became the concubine of Rich Man Zhang. So she packed up her family's belongings and asked her trusted sister-in-law from the same village to bring them to Xu Lingsheng, hoping that he would come to propose marriage after receiving them.
However, the original owner did not know that Xu Lingsheng liked the village beauty from the next village-the novel's main heroine Liu Siyao. He has no romantic feelings for the original owner. He is already impatient with the original owner's obsession and will not come to propose marriage at all.
The original owner waited at home for several days, but failed to wait for Xu Lingsheng, but instead waited for Qin Yi, a tall and powerful hunter in the ravine twenty miles away.
Faced with the choice of either following Qin Yi or becoming a concubine to a landlord who was over 60 years old, the original owner reluctantly chose Qin Yi, and then started his own path to death.
Jian Jia put down the bamboo tube with a subtle expression, stretched out two fingers and pinched the center of her eyebrows: "Hey..."
If it had been anyone else, he would have been able to scold the original owner. But she took over the original owner's body, and even if she disagreed with the original owner's actions, she couldn't curse him. Without the original owner, there would be no second life for her. Now that she is here, she will live well. Do something for yourself and for the original owner.
Jian Jia has thought a lot in the past two days. She originally wanted to leave Jianjia Village and go to a bigger place. However, this was an ancient world that she was unfamiliar with, and there were too many things beyond her knowledge. Moreover, this is an era that is not very friendly to women. It is too difficult to settle down and make a living after leaving Jianjia Village.
But she really didn't want to stay in Jianjia Village anymore. After all, she was not the original owner. Facing some of the original owner's relatives and friends, she would inevitably reveal her secrets. Besides, these relatives and friends in Jianjia Village are not kind-hearted people. In addition, she has a stepbrother and a sister-in-law who can't be driven away, so she can't live the life she wants.
As for Xu Lingsheng, the original owner of Xiao Xiang, she didn't even want to ask for help. Although Xu Lingsheng was a famous scholar from all over the country, as long as he said a few words to Jian Jia, her life would be much easier. But as long as she thinks about the plot of the original work, she just wants to stay away from the male and female protagonists of the original work.
Jian Jia is very conscious. She just wants to be an ordinary and happy person, and does not want to be involved in other people's love and hatred.
After much thought, it was a good choice to leave Jianjia Village with Qin Orion.
In the original work, the Orion husband of the original owner sold off his family property to collect the original owner's betrothal gift in order to repay his kindness. From this point of view alone, his character is good. What's more, in the original work, he never forced the original owner to do something he didn't want to do. Faced with the arrogant and unreasonable original owner, he chose tolerance and tolerance.
Compared with the so-called relatives and friends around her who are scheming against her, it will be more peaceful to get along with people who are kind and respectful and can respect her. If Orion Qin really appeared in front of her according to the development of the original work, she felt that this was a good opportunity to leave Jianjia Village.
But before leaving Jianjia Village, Jian Jia still had some things to deal with. After looking at the floating clouds floating leisurely in the sky, she stood up, patted her clothes, and walked towards the end of Jianjia Village with firm eyes.

There are fifty or sixty households in Jianjia Village, and most of the people in the village are relatives and old friends. Although the village is not considered wealthy, every household lives in a brick house. The house Jian Jia was going to was located at the end of the village. Normally, the original owner would call the head of that household his third uncle.
Although the third uncle is not the clan leader, he has a certain say in the village. When the patriarch of the Japanese family wanted to adopt a male son into the Jian family, he also wanted to adopt his unmarried younger son. Unfortunately, compared to the wily and scheming patriarch, the third uncle was one step behind. After that, everyone was peaceful on the surface, but the rift deepened behind the scenes.
Her stepbrother and sister-in-law wanted to sell her because she had the support of the clan leader. How could she make these two people live comfortably?
It didn't take long for Jian Jia to see several large tile-roofed houses in the third uncle's house. Wheat grains were drying in the open space in front of the tile-roofed houses. Several of the third uncle's grandsons were looking at the wheat next to the wheat field.
Seeing Jian Jia, the chubby little boys didn't even raise their heads. The original owner didn't like to deal with children, so it was understandable that the children would react coldly when they saw her. Of course, Jian Jia did not come here today just to make friends with the children. She stood still and asked in a loud voice: "Is Third Uncle at home?"
The fat babies looked at each other for a few times, and the oldest one reluctantly stood up and walked towards the courtyard door: "Grandpa, Aunt Jiajia is here."
Figures of people moved inside the courtyard door, and the third uncle's slightly hoarse voice came: "Why are Jia'er here? Come in and sit down."
Jian Jia didn't want to be polite. She directly explained her purpose: "Uncle Third, I don't want the wheat anymore. You can take it back later."
As soon as he finished speaking, the thin and dark-skinned third uncle walked out of the yard. He looked at Jian Jia up and down and said doubtfully, "Huh?"
Jian Jia repeated: "I give you the wheat from my field."
Third uncle has lived so long that he never believed in pie-in-the-sky things, not to mention that he knew the situation of every family in Jianjia Village. Although he didn't want to get into trouble, the wheat yield of Jian Jia's few acres of land was really good. After thinking for a moment, he took out a dry cigarette and took two puffs. He blew out blue-white smoke rings and said slowly, "If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Jian Jia likes to deal with this kind of people. She glanced at her third uncle, lowered her voice and said quickly: "I was sold by my stepbrother and sister-in-law, and it's no accident that it happened in the past few days. I want to take away my dowry."
In the original work, the original owner's stepbrother and sister-in-law not only withheld the bride price from the hunter, but also withheld the original owner's dowry, and the original owner was pushed out of the house with only a few clothes that he usually wore.
Although Jian Jia really wanted to slap the best relative in the face like other time travellers, and get back everything that belonged to the original owner. But she also knew that with her current self, she wouldn't be able to achieve much. She couldn't take away the wheat from several acres of land, so it was good to be able to exchange it for the original owner's dowry.
The third uncle was thoughtful. He held the dry cigarette and lowered his eyes in silence. The third aunt was a sweet-tempered person, and she was unhappy with the clan leader over the adoption matter. Now hearing what Jian Jia said, she slapped her thigh suddenly and said emotionally: "I just said that I saw Granny Qian two days ago. Zi was sneaking around the village, and it turned out to be like this! You damn beast!"
What kind of good family can that gambler Jian Xiaoqiang find for Jian Jia? It's just that whoever gives more gift money can take Jian Jia home.
Seeing that his mother-in-law was about to howl, the third uncle raised his hand to stop her, nodded, and said slowly: "Okay."
Jian Jia breathed a sigh of relief and said solemnly: "Thank you, uncle."
Maybe there were too many acres of wheat in Jian's family, or maybe Jian Jia's demeanor touched the third uncle. The third uncle who usually didn't talk much took a few puffs of dry cigarettes, and the emotions in his eyes changed again and again, and he said : "Uncle will not let you leave the village quietly."
Looking at Jian Jia's leaving figure, the third uncle couldn't help but sigh: "Second brother, I'm sorry..." Jian Jia's father, Jian Zhishan, is his second brother in terms of seniority. It's a pity that Jian Zhishan has done good deeds throughout his life. If he knew better, he would not know how he would feel if he learned that the relatives he had protected with so much effort not only failed to help his daughter after his death, but also took the opportunity to add insult to injury.
It's just that this world is like this, if people don't do it for themselves, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth. In the face of interests, how can we talk about kinship and morality?

The third uncle's family worked together and collected all the wheat that Jian Jia had not finished in one afternoon. Just wait until dark before they drag the wheat home.
Jian Jia felt a little better when she thought of her stepbrother and sister-in-law's distorted expressions when they discovered this. But when she returned to her home and saw the gloomy look on her stepbrother Jian Xiaoqiang's face, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Jian Xiaoqiang is thin and wears overly large clothes. When he stands, he holds his chest and leans his neck forward, like a wild monkey wearing clothes. Since he got the title deed of Jian's house, he has gambling money. Apart from going home to eat and sleep, he can hardly be seen the rest of the time.
As soon as he saw Jian Xiaoqiang's raging look, Jian Jia knew what he was going to say next. She was thirsty and tired now, and just wanted to sit down and drink some water, so she walked around Jian Xiaoqiang towards the kitchen.
Although she knew that Jian Jia was not a good-tempered person, she never dared to resist him face to face. What happened today? How dare she hit He Xiaohong and ignore herself. Is this okay? ! Jian Xiaoqiang's eyes widened, and a voice like a drake sounded loudly: "Stop, you brother-less thing, who let you go?"
He Xiaohong staggered out of the room, her face swollen and colorful, and her bloodshot eyes stared at Jian Jia resentfully under her swollen eyelids. Jian Xiaoqiang is back, and so is her backbone. She came close to Jian Xiaoqiang, grabbed Jian Xiaoqiang's arm with both hands, and said more jealously: "Master, look at her, she hit me before, and now she pretends that she can't see you..."
Jian Xiaoqiang glanced at He Xiaohong up and down, with a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. He Xiaohong is his woman. Jian Jia hitting He Xiaohong in public is equivalent to hitting him in the face in public.
Jian Xiaoqiang's face turned ugly again, and his tone was unkind, "My eldest sister-in-law is like my mother. You actually attacked your eldest sister-in-law in public. Do you still see me as a brother in your eyes? Fortunately, we tried our best to find a good marriage for you. Is this what you did to us?"
