A Native Woman in a Period Novel, She Only Picks Up the Female Lead’s Scraps

[Period Setting + Native Protagonist + Pocket Dimension + Everyday Life + Building Wealth] (Disclaimer: The protagonist is not someone who exploits a family with no male heirs, and this is not a poverty-alleviation story! Please don’t jump to conclusions before finishing the novel!) The year Tao Tao turned seventeen, a book suddenly appeared in her mind. Only then did she learn that the world she lived in was actually a period-setting novel built around contrasting characters. The good news was that she was neither the heroine nor a supporting female character, so she wouldn’t have to go through all kinds of hardships or compete with anyone for a man. The bad news was that she didn’t appear in the book at all! But she was a native of this world! One day, just as the heroine was arguing with her family outside their residential compound before storming off in anger, Tao Tao happened to come by after a meal. Tao Tao glanced at the two who had parted on bad terms, then at the thing on the ground that had flashed with a glimmer of gold. Come on, you can argue all you want, but at least look at the gold bead the size of a thumb lying on the ground! Sigh, what a sweet dilemma. I guess I’m the only one who can bear it. Well, Tao Tao, I’ll gladly take it today! On another day, Tao Tao happened to catch the heroine and a supporting female character acting out a scene where two women fought over one man. She looked at the banknotes curled up on the ground, then at the two women fighting fiercely. Tao Tao waited and waited, but neither of them noticed them. Watching the money get kicked away again, Tao Tao had no choice but to pick up this damnable stroke of luck.
