1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

As Wen Li approached the courtyard gate, she heard Jiang Yue'er's deliberately hushed voice.

"Hello uncles, my name is Jiang Yue'er, and I'm Grandma Su's newly adopted goddaughter!"

"Grandma passed away suddenly, without leaving a single word. I'd often heard her mention you all, and I've always wanted to meet the uncles she spoke of. So, I thought I'd come to see you today. I hope you uncles won't mind my intrusion!"

The courtyard was now only inhabited by members of the Su family. When they heard Jiang Yue'er say that she was the old lady's goddaughter, everyone was stunned and then disbelieving.

If this were true, the old lady would definitely write to tell them.

But looking at Jiang Yue'er's sweet and obedient face, he felt that this girl didn't seem like a liar.

"Jian Dang, Yue'er is right. Last time, the old lady went out for a walk and accidentally fell into a ditch. Yue'er happened to be passing by and saved her. The old lady likes Yue'er very much, so she took Yue'er in as her goddaughter!"

"The old lady was planning to introduce you to her when you came back, but she left so suddenly. Sigh... what a mess this is!"

The person speaking was Aunt Huang, Zhao Xiaomai's neighbor. Some time ago, she received a lot of benefits from Jiang Yue'er in order to help her find a partner.

Unexpectedly, the two of them conspired to deceive the Su family.

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaomai became anxious, but she didn't dare to face so many people, so she could only ask Wen Li for help with her eyes.

Wen Li: "Let's wait and see. The Su family isn't so easily fooled!"

Zhao Xiaomai thought about it and realized it made sense, so she stopped rushing.

In the yard

Su Jiandang looked at his younger siblings and asked them with his eyes if they had received the old lady's letter.

Several people shook their heads, indicating that the old lady had not mentioned taking in a goddaughter in the letter.

Su Jiandang received the answer, but his expression remained unchanged, and his tone was very gentle.

"What does the old lady usually say about us?"

Jiang Yue'er was prepared and picked out a few things related to the old lady from the original book to tell.

After she finished speaking, the Su family members' expressions became somewhat subtle.

Jiang Yue'er spoke eloquently, but these things were not exactly secrets; many people knew about them.

"In that case, Second Brother, go and invite Brother Zhao over to ask what's going on!"

Jiang Yue'er didn't expect that Su Jiandang still didn't believe her. If he really sent someone to confront her, wouldn't she be exposed?

Besides, he is Zhao Xiaomai's father, so he certainly wouldn't go to great lengths to smear him.

"Uncle, no need. I just came to say hello. It's getting late, I should head back now!"

Jiang Yue'er had a good plan. Even if she couldn't get close to the Su family, as long as her identity was publicly known here, she could still use the Su family's name to make connections with many powerful and influential people after the Su family left.

What kind of people hasn't Su Jiandang met?

One look at Jiang Yue'er and you knew what she was up to.

He wouldn't allow anyone to act under the Su family's name.

"No rush. Since you're the goddaughter Mom adopted before she passed away, you're our niece too. Your uncles and aunts haven't prepared a gift for you yet!"

The others understood Su Jiandang's actions and tried to persuade Jiang Yue'er to stay.

Jiang Yue'er cursed Su Jiandang as an old fox in her heart. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw two young men already standing guard at the door.

She can't leave now even if she wants to.

He could only bite the bullet and say, "Uncle, I have some conflicts with the Zhao family, and they might not like me very much!"

"Oh? What's the conflict?" Su Jinxiu asked, feigning curiosity.

Jiang Yue'er recounted Zhao Xiaomai's story in a roundabout way, even blaming Wang Zhi for it. She mentioned that Zhao Xiaomai had her head shaved in a humiliating way and was so heartbroken that she cried.

"I didn't know they would bully Xiaomai like that. By the time I arrived, Xiaomai had already been picked up by her family. I felt very guilty and went to apologize to them many times, but... it's understandable that they wouldn't forgive me!"

The Su siblings exchanged glances. Although Jiang Yue'er spoke with sincerity, there was no trace of guilt in her eyes.

On the contrary, she harbored resentment towards the Zhao family for not forgiving her.

They only come back during the Chinese New Year, so they don't know their neighbors very well.

The fact that the old lady has chosen the Zhao family means that the Zhao family is a good family.

They were raised by the old lady and had a strange confidence in her judgment. The old lady said the Zhao family was good, so there couldn't be any character problems with them.

Besides, this whole thing started because of Jiang Yue'er, who hurt Zhao Xiaomai so badly. How can the Zhao family not be allowed to hate her?

If they remembered correctly, the old lady liked Zhao Xiaomai very much. How could she possibly recognize a girl who had hurt Zhao Xiaomai so much as her goddaughter?

Thinking about it now, maybe Aunt Huang's talk of saving people was all part of Jiang Yue'er's plan.

Jiang Yue'er was unaware that her badmouthing of the Zhao family had backfired, making Su Jiandang even more suspicious of her.

Not long after, Old Man Zhao arrived.

Upon seeing Jiang Yue'er at the Su family's house, he subconsciously frowned.

"Brother Zhao, please have a seat!"

Father Zhao didn't sit down; he just stared at Jiang Yue'er and Aunt Huang with a livid expression.

Aunt Huang looked flustered. She said the Su family wasn't so easy to fool!

"Jianhua just told me about it!" Father Zhao pointed at Jiang Yue'er.

"This Comrade Jiang has repeatedly come to harass my Xiaomai, just to get close to the old lady. The old lady saw through her intentions long ago, so she has never seen her. I never expected her to dare to tell such a lie!"

A hint of panic flashed in Jiang Yue'er's eyes, but she still didn't want to give up on a powerful family like the Su family.

"You're talking nonsense! You just resent me and are saying this on purpose to get revenge!"

Mr. Zhao remained calm. "Whether I'm lying or not, just ask the neighbors!"

Jiang Yue'er: "Only Aunt Huang and I know about this. You clearly know this, which is why you dare to slander me like this. You're trying to avenge your daughter!"

"Aunt Huang was always stealing things from the old lady, so the old lady stopped letting her do housework a long time ago. How did she know?"

Aunt Huang was very domineering towards her neighbors, but she didn't dare to act recklessly when facing a group of people dressed in Zhongshan suits.

Although she didn't know exactly how high-ranking the Su family members were, she knew from the fact that the commune leaders frequently visited that they were even higher-ranking than the commune leaders themselves.

She dared not look up under Su Jiandang's gaze, only shrugging her neck to minimize her presence.

Even when she was exposed, Jiang Yue'er was not guilty at all. She always felt that she was the female lead, so what if the Su family found out?

There's still nothing we can do about her!

Su Jiandang couldn't help but laugh; it was the first time he had ever met someone with such a strong mentality.

They've been exposed so badly, yet they're still standing there so self-righteously.

"Aunt Huang, if you don't tell the truth, you'll be part of a fraud ring. If I report you to the police, your husband and son will lose their jobs. You'd better think it over!"

Upon hearing that it would implicate her husband and son, Aunt Huang immediately panicked.

"I'll talk, I'll talk!"

"It's her!" Aunt Huang pointed viciously at Jiang Yue'er. "She gave me gifts and money, asking me to give false testimony. I was bewitched. I'll return the money to her right now, please don't arrest me!"
