Transmigrated into a Book as the Wicked Old Woman's Youngest Son (Imperial Exams)

After Song Mo died, he awakened memories of his past life and realized that he had been one of the important characters in a farming novel. In this farming novel, the protagonist transmigrates into the body of the honest, timid second son of the Song family. The second branch of the family works like oxen, doing all the hardest labor, yet they still can’t win the affection of the harsh and vicious Old Madam Song. Their son and daughter are so hungry they’re skin and bones. The eldest branch is ruthless. The third branch is simple-minded. The fourth branch is cunning. The youngest, fifth branch is the most despicable. Spoiled by Old Madam Song, he goes to school in town but makes no effort to improve himself. He squanders the money his relatives have worked so hard to earn, showing off and tagging along with rich young masters like a dog, and racks up gambling debts. The protagonist refuses to keep being a workhorse and a sucker. He’ll split the family, start a business, face-slap the worst offenders, and give his wife and daughter a good life without letting the old Song family benefit in the slightest. As for Old Madam Song using filial piety to control him, humph. Everyone has a weakness. If he can’t fight back against Old Madam Song, does that mean he can’t beat up her precious darling, Song Laowu? A son can’t hit his parents, but as an older brother, isn’t it only natural to teach his little brother a lesson? Whenever anything displeases him, the protagonist gives Song Laowu a beating, until Old Madam Song doesn’t even dare open her mouth to scold him! Well, Song Mo is the Song Laowu who keeps getting beaten up. Song Mo, the frailest but most ruthless member of the family, looks back on a life that didn’t entirely match the story’s plot. As he gazes at the sunlight beyond the window, with his family’s noisy chatter in his ears, he readily accepts his role as cannon fodder. How wonderful. It seems he’s... been reborn. P.S. The original protagonist will not be vilified. P.S. There is a female lead.
