"I've destroyed your face. Let's see how you'll seduce men now!" "I want to pluck all your hair too. Let's see how you'll seduce other married men!" The woman screamed while she cut off Mei Shu's hair. She then directly stabbed the scissors into her head and put an end to her pitiful life. Mei Shu had already been bedridden for over ten years. Her face was practically unrecognizable. Her four younger brothers were either injured, crippled, sick, or barely alive. This was all thanks to the woman next to her bed. Many years ago, Mei Shu's mother died in a car accident. Not long after that, her stepmother moved in with her stepsister, Mei Mu. Mei Shu's stepmother found a way to send Mei Shu to the countryside. After that, Mei Shu's stepmother and stepsister slowly took over all the Mei family's possessions. When Mei Shu was about to turn eighteen, they brought her home. The only reason they did that was to acquire the inheritance her mother left behind. After that, they kept plotting and scheming against her. They sowed discord between Mei Shu and her four younger brothers. Until the day Mei Shu died in the hospital, her brothers still had no idea she wasn't the one who started the fire that ruined their lives. After dying, Mei Shu refused to move on. She reincarnated to the time she was seventeen with her own system. She wanted to change her fate and rescue her brothers! In their previous lifetime, she and her brothers treated each other like enemies. In this lifetime... "Mei Shu, I'll do anything you tell me to," her first brother said. "Who dares to bully my sister?" Her second brother asked. "Mei Shu belongs to me!" Her third brother exclaimed. "Do you wish to marry my sister? Let's see if you have what it takes!" Her fourth brother uttered. [System: Quest completed! You'll be rewarded with a husband!"

Chase her out!” The guests snickered and agreed with her. “Where did this girl come out from? The Su family lost their eldest daughter when she’s just one years old. Someone must have told this four-year-old girl to do this, right?” Su Su ran into her noble and reserved big brother’s arms. “Brother, I’m Su Su! I came back! If you don’t believe me, we can do a paternity test!” In her previous life, she was only discovered and brought back to the Su family when she was an adult.

Self-publishing meant that the author published his own novel without the help of a publishing house or editor. This kind of publishing method usually required the author to own the copyright of the novel and set the price, sales, and publicity himself. The advantages of self-publishing included: 1. Self-control of the publishing process: The author can decide whether to publish, when to publish, and how to publish according to his own wishes and needs. 2. Independent pricing and revenue distribution: The author can set the price according to his own wishes and distribute the revenue according to his own sales situation. 3. More flexible publishing options: The author can choose the right publishing company or editor according to his own preferences and market demand without being limited by the traditional publishing process. 4. Better market competition: Since authors can set their own prices and choose their own publishing companies, they can better participate in the market competition and increase the popularity and influence of their novels. However, there were some disadvantages to self-publishing. 1. Higher publishing costs: Self-funded publishing requires the author to bear the publishing costs, including printing, publishing, publicity and other expenses. 2. There may be unfair distribution of profits: Due to the unfair distribution of profits between authors and editors, authors may face the problem of profit distribution. 3. Need to have excellent works: Self-funded publishing requires the author to have excellent works in order to obtain more opportunities and returns. In short, self-funded publishing was a flexible and autonomous way of publishing, but the author had to bear a higher publishing cost and need to have excellent works in order to obtain better returns.
