Su Yu had a dream. She was a cannon-fodder supporting female character in a period novel, existing solely to highlight the heroine's happy life.
And the heroine was none other than her stepsister!
As the contrast character, her stepsister got into college while she failed the entrance exams.
After graduating, her stepsister got a secure government job and married the richest man in town.
Her husband was gentle and considerate, her children were well-behaved and filial, and her stepsister was the center of attention.
As for Su Yu, she had no steady job and married a man whose wife had died, leaving him with three children. Her husband was violent, and the children she had raised with such care felt no affection for her. She lived a lonely, miserable life, with no one to depend on.
When she woke from the dream, Su Yu was drenched in a cold sweat.
No way! Why should she have to make her stepsister's life happy?
It was only college. She would work hard and get in too!
She would find a good man! And her children would be her own!

Xu Ting had always looked down on her stepsister from the countryside. She was soft and spineless, and terribly provincial.
Who would have thought that the country bumpkin she looked down on would not only get into college, but also start a business after graduating and become a well-known entrepreneur?
She could still comfort herself that her own life wasn't so bad: she worked at a textile mill and married a minor manager.
But a few years later, the wave of layoffs hit, and her job was exhausting and poorly paid.
She thought life was unfair. Was she really no better than a country bumpkin? So she wrote a book and switched their fates around.
When she transmigrated into the book, she was overjoyed, thinking that her life was finally going to turn out well.
But why had her stepsister still gotten into college while she had failed again?
As she watched her stepsister start another business and become an entrepreneur, while she herself was about to follow her old path into the textile mill, Xu Ting rolled her eyes back and fainted.
Currently updating: The Charming Beauty of the 1960s
Lu Wan became famous the day she arrived on Jiang Island. She was famous for her beauty, her delicate ways, and for loving to cry and act coquettish.
Ye Jichuan thought, at first sight, that Lu Wan was beautiful, delicate, and soft-hearted. Before she had even spoken, tears were already falling. Whoever married her would be taking home a living ancestor.
When he learned that Lu Wan and he were engaged to each other since childhood, everyone teased him. He merely said with indifference, "I don't like women who act coquettish and cry all the time. I can't be bothered to comfort them."
Everyone looked at Ye Jichuan, decisive, cool-headed, and disciplined. He came from a good family, and certainly didn't seem like the type to know how to comfort a woman.
Later... Ye Jichuan got married, and his bride was Lu Wan.
His friends were all shocked.
"Didn't you say you didn't like women who act coquettish and cry?"
"Didn't you say you couldn't be bothered to comfort them?"
Ye Jichuan replied, "But I never said I didn't like Lu Wan."
Everyone: ...

Jiang Suining unexpectedly transmigrated into a book, becoming a supporting female character from a period novel who shared her name.
In the book, she was young and beautiful, from a wealthy family. Then disaster struck, and her family, desperate to protect her from being implicated, hastily arranged for her to marry a powerful man who had two children.
But just six months after the wedding, the man died when his chronic illness returned and could not be treated.
Without her husband's protection, her life became miserable from then on.
Jiang Suining arrived just in time for her wedding night with the man.
Looking at the handsome man before her, with clear features and a tall, straight figure, she decided she couldn't let him die young.
The very next day, she sent him to the hospital for a checkup, hoping to prevent his chronic illness from returning and get him treated early.
She would nip the disease in the bud.
Word spread that she took her husband to the hospital every day. Everyone in the compound started saying that Jiang Suining's husband was no good.
Some even said that you couldn't expect happiness from marrying an old man, no matter how powerful he was.
These words reached Jiang Suining's mother-in-law. The old woman came over, saw the room full of tonics, and shook her head in dismay. My son is only thirty, and he's already no good?
The man, made to drink medicine at every meal: ...I'm no good???
A year later, Jiang Suining gave birth to twins. At their full-month celebration, she carried the two little girls into the courtyard to enjoy the sun.
Everyone in the compound gathered around. The girls' features were practically identical to their father's.
The crowd looked on enviously and whispered among themselves that Comrade Jiang's husband wasn't just good, he was really, really good.

Preorder: Transmigrating into a Period Novel as the Beloved Real Daughter
Shen Ningchu transmigrated one day and became the real daughter who had been switched at birth in a period novel.
After the Shen family brought her home, Shen's mother told everyone she met, "My darling is the prettiest little princess in the whole world."
Shen's father also said, "My little darling is the most amazing."
Even the two fearsome Shen brothers said, "We have to protect our little sister. We can't let a hungry wolf carry her off."
The family's reaction made everyone laugh. Everyone knew their daughter had been raised in the mountains for eighteen years and couldn't even write her own name. Her arranged fiancé had come to break off the engagement in the middle of the night. They sure knew how to talk big.
Later, Shen Ningchu used her impeccable London accent to help her father land the factory's first foreign order worth over a hundred million. The Shen family rose to the top three of the province's richest families in the early 1990s.
At the celebratory banquet, everyone finally saw the country bumpkin from the rumors. The eighteen-year-old girl's skin was as smooth as jade, and her eyes and teeth were bright and beautiful. She was even prettier than the stars in the magazines.
As everyone stared in shock, only the Shen family remained utterly calm, casually landing another order worth over a hundred million.
"Big Brother Shen, would the South City Food Factory make a suitable betrothal gift?"
"Big Brother Shen, what do you think of the North City Furniture Factory?"
"Big Brother Shen..."
After finally extricating himself from the crowd, the eldest Shen brother smiled inscrutably. "I'm terribly sorry, but my darling is still young. We'll keep her with us for a few more years."
But the next day, someone saw Shen Ningchu at the newly built amusement park owned by the Gu family, with the family's ruthless head of household.
The man, rumored to have no interest in women, gently held Shen Ningchu's hand and asked affectionately, "Darling, have you had enough fun? If you have, let's go home."
The original domineering CEO VS his sweet, gentle young wife
Theme: A happy life must be built with your own two hands
The heroine has been enjoying the benefits that should belong to the heroine, which is really disappointing. The parents and other relatives of the heroine are doing whatever they can to seek benefits for her, and squeeze the heroine to death. If their family does not die in a miserable way, it would be a shame for the heroine.
This Cheng family is really clueless. I feel like the heroine will never recognize them in the future.
The heroine's own mother was so angry that she came to life in this plot
This forced the female supporting characters to become intelligent, which was a bit unreal, like playing house. The author Zhang Qiu has written that she has studied abroad and translated contracts for her own company, so her professional knowledge should be excellent, but the heroine only studied with an old American lady for more than a year, and she can be exposed to so many professional and unfamiliar vocabulary? No matter how you say it was Zhang Qiu who killed the heroine instantly, it is not possible that Zhang Qiu and her mother spent a lot of money to win one game in order to win it several times. It is very unreasonable, just like the villain's brain suddenly disappeared.
. . . Zhang Qiu is very much like her mother. The bad genes are so thoroughly inherited that Zhang Qiu cannot change them even after so many years of education.
Could this mother be an assist to the heroine?
It's not a matter of actions, it's a matter of delay in uncovering the truth so that the counterfeiters can enjoy more benefits that are not theirs.
Zhang Qiu wants to kill someone...
The heroine must be the child of this couple. And as mentioned before, the Xu Ting family suddenly got rich. It must be the Xu family who asked Xu Ting to pretend to be the daughter of this family.
The heroine is probably Zhou Da's daughter
