Yue Yan finally finished reading this five million-word novel. She couldn't calm down for a long time. She slowly typed a few words in the comments section.
"I couldn't tell how hard the female protagonist worked. I didn't understand why she was so popular. I thought it was an inspirational novel about women fighting for themselves independently. I was extremely disappointed."
The entire "The History of Su Yu's Struggle" was about the ordinary female main character in the 1980s who relied on her kind character to inadvertently receive help from benefactors. She and her first love boyfriend started from scratch and supported each other from school to middle-aged. Yue Yan felt aggrieved after reading the book.
Did the author know what kind of life ordinary people at the bottom lived?!
Most importantly, there was a vicious female supporting character with the same name as Yue Yan in this book. She read it completely for this female supporting character. The female supporting character had done all kinds of bad things and was stupid. Yue Yan expected better from her.
Yue Yan had a stingy habit. She had already spent money on the book, so she insisted on finishing it.
She felt uncomfortable after reading the book. Could it be that all the ladies called "Yue Yan" have a tough life?
Yue Yan tossed and turned, lying in bed late at night. The vicious female supporting character with the same name as her had a family who never left her even after she did all the bad things. Yet, Yue Yan in real life did not even know who her biological parents were though she insisted on doing charity after earning money.
As she thought about it, she felt sleepy.
Yue Yan, who was squatting at the door counting ants with her face in her hands, could not understand. She was just surfing the internet late at night. She didn't expect to really transmigrate into a book!
Her thigh was already bruised by herself. Hence, it really wasn't a dream.
To be honest, she was a little flustered.
"Yueyue, it's time to go home for dinner!" Her mother's voice came from the house.
Yue Yan stood up helplessly.
Although the entire book wasn't very good, what poked at her the most was the female supporting character's family storyline. No matter how deviant the female supporting character was, her family did not leave her. In the end, Yue Yan even contributed a few tears when the female supporting character suddenly repented and hugged her parents.
Yue Yan left the orphanage at the age of 16 in her previous life and relied on her outstanding results to exempt her from tuition fees. She had to work to earn living expenses during the winter and summer holidays. The school knew her difficulties, so she usually could get the highest scholarship awards.
She did not have a family in her previous life, but she met many kind people. However, she could not calm her heart down. She was not bad at all. She even got into a famous university. Why was she abandoned at the entrance of the orphanage?
Perhaps she was too unlucky. After she went to university, she liked to read novels in her spare time, especially inspirational novels where the female main character worked hard on her own.
"The History of Su Yu's Struggle" was a book she had chanced upon. Moreover, she had read it along with the others because it was a popular novel adapted from a popular
To be honest, the plot was still a classic one. It was very ordinary compared to the novels she had read, but she could not resist its overwhelming marketing.
However, she never expected that a vicious female supporting character with the same name as her would appear in the first chapter. At first, she wanted to see how hateful the female supporting character with the same name as her could be. In the end, she was attracted by her family in a few descriptions the author wrote.
More than once, she sighed as she read. If she were the female supporting character, she would definitely not hurt her parents' hearts. She wished she could crawl into the book and hug her poor parents.
Yue Yan entered with her hands behind her back. Today's meal was boiled rice. However, it was so hard that it could not even be considered porridge. The steamed buns were so hard that she was afraid that her teeth would break, but if she did not eat, she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.
Her parents buried their heads in their food. There was not a single drop of oil in the vegetables. At least the pickled vegetables could still be tasted. She soaked the steamed bun in the rice soup with tears in her eyes. She wanted to eat fluffy rice so badly.
However, she could not say that out because her family did not have much money to begin with. Even if she already knew, she had to pretend to be obedient and figure out her parents' personalities first.
In the original novel, Yue Yan had the temper of a rich young lady. At 16 years old, she still liked to throw a tantrum like a child and shout at the slightest provocation. That was because her family would pay more attention to her when she did that.
Yue Yan blushed when she had to act as a 16-year-old when she was already 22 years old. However, it was better than exposing herself.
At the same time, Qiu Fei, the grandson of the Zhou Family, who stayed one floor away from Yue Yan's house, finally recovered from his fever.
After Yue Yan finished eating, she helped her mother wash the dishes.
"You're going to school next Monday. Mommy will break up an old jacket and sew a new school bag for you tonight."
Yue Yan's heart ached. "I don't want a new school bag. Don't we have a cloth bag to store rice at home? I'll use that."
Wen Hongyu smiled and reached out to gently tap her daughter's forehead. "How can that be done? The students will laugh at you. Our eldest daughter should have a new school bag too."
Yue Yan hugged her mother and buried her head in her arms. "Then don't sew the bag at night. It's not good for your eyes."
Wen Hongyu said in relief, "Alright, our Yueyue has become sensible. She knows how to dote on Mommy."
This book wasn't set in any specific period of history, but at the moment, it should belong to the mid-1980s. Many of its major events were still developing according to the world in her previous life.
Her mother, Wen Hongyu, was a garment factory employee, and her father, Yue Huaide, rode a tricycle to carry passengers.
The original novel talked about the female main character's family background. A vicious female supporting character like her, who was used to set off the female main character, also had a family background introduction. Every time Yue Yan's parents appeared, they would clean up their daughter's mess and apologize to others.
It was written in the original novel that Yue Yan hated this family because of her father's work and felt that she was looked down upon by her classmates.
After Yue Yan transmigrated, she had the original host's memories. Her father was someone her mother met when she went to the countryside[2.The Up to the Mountains and Down to the Countryside Movement, often known simply as the Down to the Countryside Movement, was a policy instituted in the People's Republic of China between mid 1950s and 1978. As a result of what he perceived to be pro-bourgeois thinking prevalent during the Cultural Revolution, Chairman Mao Zedong declared certain privileged urban youth would be sent to mountainous areas or farming villages to learn from the workers and farmers there. In total, approximately 17 million youth were sent to rural areas as a result of the movement. Usually only the oldest child had to go, but younger siblings could volunteer to go instead. Many fresh high school graduates, who became known as the so-called sent-down youth (also known in China as "educated youth" and abroad as "rusticated youth"), were forced out of the cities and effectively exiled to remote areas of China. Some commentators consider these people, many of whom lost the opportunity to attend university, "China's Lost Generation".]. Later on, when her mother came back, Wen Hongyu's family used their connections to bring Yue Huaide to the city.
It was equivalent to Yue Huaide being a married-in son-in-law.
Yue Yan was very envious of her parents when she read books. They doted on their daughter so much that they never gave up on her.
Her father, Yue Huaide, looked very dependable because of his muscles, which he gained by doing menial work. He completely satisfied Yue Yan's fantasy of her father.
On the other hand, her mother, Wen Hongyu, was very efficient. She was an intellectual and had always taught Yue Yan patiently instead of beating and scolding her for her mistakes.
Other than the female main character's frustrating storyline, Yue Yan was actually very grateful to the god who transmigrated her into the book. She finally had a happy family.
She did not know much about history, but the history textbooks had mentioned some important things.
For example, the female main character's father would lose his job in two years. For example, the rise of the Internet industry in the 1990s, the economic crisis, and so on.
She guessed that the reason why the female supporting character played well with the female main character was because the female main character's father was the factory manager of the clothing factory and Wen Hongyu was an employee of the clothing factory.
Yue Huaide came back from outside.
"I heard that the youngest grandson of the Zhou Family had woken up when I went upstairs earlier. He had a high fever for a month on and off. I heard that he almost couldn't be saved."
Yue Yan bit her finger and thought about who lived upstairs.
The Zhou Family? She didn't have any impression of them. They shouldn't be the main plot characters.
She was very afraid of meeting the characters in the book. The only normal character in this book was the stupid and rich male supporting character. In the end, he got into a car accident and became comatose. The female main character took over his company, allowing the male lead's business to expand completely.
Yue Yan was shocked. Romance novels indeed did not need any logic. This did not make sense at all!
Unexpectedly, Wen Hongyu patted Yue Yan's hand. "Go upstairs and take a look. Mommy can't leave now."
Yue Yan did not want to go. She wanted to stick to her mother.
"Mom, I don't want to go."
Wen Hongyu frowned. "What did Mommy tell you? We're neighbors. Better a close neighbor than a distant brother."
Yue Yan reluctantly took the two eggs upstairs. She wanted her mother to eat more supplements. In the plot, Wen Hongyu had miscarried twice. The author's words hinted that they were boys in her description.
Her family lived in an ordinary rented house with an indoor bathroom. They lived frugally.
The Wen Family accepted Yue Huaide's status as a farmer because Wen Hongyu's first child was a daughter, so Wen Hongyu had to give birth to a son with the surname Wen before the Wen Family would let them go back to live with them.
Yue Yan did not want to go back anyway. The Wen Family had four sons, and Wen Hongyu was their only daughter. Three of her uncles were married and everyone lived together. They would see each other every day and there were too many trivial matters.
However, she knew that her parents were looking forward to having another child. They did not favor boys over girls. They wanted her to have company.
Bang bang bang. Yue Yan knocked on the door with all her might. The Zhou Family's door was a newly changed wooden door. They could not hear her if she knocked lightly.
"Who is it?" An old lady's voice came from inside the house.
"Grandma, I'm Yue Yan from downstairs. My mother asked me to come up and take a look at… Big Brother." She forgot to ask the Zhou Family's child's name before leaving.
The door opened. Yue Yan handed the eggs to Grandma Zhou and wanted to leave. Unexpectedly, Grandma Zhou pulled her back and said with a smile,
"Yueyue, come in and sit for a while. Xiaofei just woke up. You guys of the same age have something to say."
Yue Yan was deep in thought. So his name was Zhou Fei?
There was no such person in the original novel, so she could get to know him.
Yue Yan could only follow her into the house.
As soon as she entered the house, she could tell that the Zhou Family was a rich family. There was a lot of furniture in their home. Although all the tickets had been eliminated at this time, it was not convenient to buy things. It was a restricted purchase policy, so they had to have some connections.
Zhou
Oh my gosh, how was this a rich family? This was simply a wealthy family!
She was too shocked and did not know what to say.
Qiu Fei, who was leaning against the bed with a blanket on his lap, saw his neighbor staring at his bookshelf in surprise. After all, she was here to visit him, so he took the initiative to greet her.
"Yueyue, do you want to read that book? I can read you two paragraphs."
Yue Yan had mixed feelings. A boy who knew foreign languages in the 1980s was actually not the protagonist. She, a female supporting character who transmigrated into the books, could not compare to him.
But she still wanted to see the other party's level.
"Then I want to read this one." She casually chose a Russian book.
Qiu Fei smiled at her. "I happen to know how to read it."
The other party had just finished changing his voice as he was in puberty. He spoke slowly and his voice was like a pleasant stream. He read the original Russian in a voice like a broadcaster. Yue Yan felt that he was precocious beyond his peers.
After reading the story, Yue Yan finally understood that her neighbor had hidden his abilities.
She was not very proficient in Russian and could only communicate simply. Her neighbor's pronunciation was very accurate, close to the standard of a broadcaster.
The neighbor was clearly the same age as her. No, he should be a year older than her. There were second-year textbooks on his desk.
Yue Yan had the thought of making friends with her neighbor, Zhou Xiaofei. She would definitely need to have her own circle of friends if she was going to stay away from the protagonist's camp.
"Brother Xiaofei is amazing! Can you teach me Russian?"
Qiu Fei smiled. "How did Yueyue know that this is Russian?"
Oh no, she was exposed.
Yue Yan looked up with a pure and harmless smile. "Because you are twisting your tongue around!"
Qiu Fei laughed. He was really too vigilant to think that Yue Yan was also a transmigrator.
"The brown sugar water is here. Yueyue, come and drink the brown sugar water. Grandma specially added eggs." Grandma Zhou carried two bowls of brown sugar water into the house.
Yue Yan drooled when she heard that. Brown sugar eggs were such a luxurious thing.
