This book is complete [Historical era + family life + satisfying revenge on scumbags + pampered by everyone]
Zhang Xiyue transmigrates into a tragic, doomed minor character with the same name in a period novel. She's the heroine's foil.
The heroine, Yang Tiantian, has a tragic background: abused by her stepmother and unloved by her father, she's like a little cabbage. Zhang Xiyue, by contrast, is domineering and sweet-faced but ruthless, with a loving family.
Wei Zhiguo is egged on by Yang Tiantian to steal a job and kidnap Zhang Xiyue. The original Zhang Xiyue is beaten to death with a club and nearly dumped in a river. That's how she comes to be here.
Zhang Xiyue fights to change her fate, snatching up jobs and opportunities alike.
No one expected Zhang Xiyue to agree to break off her engagement. It turns out Shen He has found someone in another city who can help him climb the career ladder and get rich...
In her previous life, the original Zhang Xiyue was infatuated with the scumbag Shen He. She cared for her father-in-law after he became lame, her bedridden mother-in-law, and her sister-in-law, who had been abandoned by a sent-down youth returning to the city. Meanwhile, the scumbag had a mistress and an illegitimate child on the side.
After transmigrating, Zhang Xiyue decides to break off the engagement. The scumbag is impotent, and his whole family is a drag, so she might as well ruin his prospects and send his mistress to prison...
After Lu Xiao reports his biological father and stepmother, he is sent to the countryside, where he meets Zhang Xiyue. She's putting a bunch of jerks in their place. The last time he saw her, she reported someone and ruined their reputation. This woman is impressive.
Lu Xiao: “Xiyue, marry me. I'll do whatever you say.”
Zhang Xiyue: “Do you have money and a house?”
Lu Xiao: “You can keep my passbook.”
Later, Lu Xiao kneels and begs Zhang Xiyue not to break up with him...
After she broke off their engagement, he was kicked out of the army, his wife cheated on him, and his mother became bedridden. He regretted it, but it was too late...
