The Era-Novel Foil Group Has Decided to Lie Flat

Shen Xiajin transmigrates into a story set in a bygone era.

The female lead in the book is her sister-in-law after she gets married. After the wedding, she uses her Lucky Carp System to help her husband and his family rise to success. They end up with a car and a brick house, becoming the envy of everyone in the village.

As the female lead's foil, Shen Xiajin takes care of every chore in the house until she can barely straighten her back, yet people call her lazy and difficult. In the end, she gets divorced because she can't have children.

Later, with the female lead's help, her ex-husband and his new wife also live a prosperous life.

Whenever people mention Shen Xiajin, they say she was dealt a great hand and played it terribly, a classic case of ruining her own life.

But Shen Xiajin, who has transmigrated into the book, knows that the female lead's Lucky Carp System works by sucking away her diligence points.

If that's the case, she's going to lie flat.

And so Shen Xiajin becomes the laziest woman far and wide in the village.

To avoid spending every day with the female lead, Shen Xiajin finds herself another man.

Everyone in the village knows that Shen Xiajin's man was abandoned by the townsfolk. Apart from his good looks, he's old, poor, and odd-tempered. Most importantly, he's frail and can't earn work points. Marrying him means not only having to support him, but possibly becoming a widow in all but name!

A lazy woman and a sick man: nobody in Anping Village thinks much of this young couple. But somehow, the Zhao family's house keeps getting nicer, and the smell of meat fills the air at mealtimes. The man never lets Shen Xiajin do any housework, and gives her more money and ration coupons than she can spend...
