Transmigrated into the body of an extreme brother-supporting demon, I immediately severed ties with

"Don't go looking for her. What can we do if she says it's lost? After all, you were the one who broke the lock. Whether or not money was lost is up to her."

Zhang Tiedan put his arm around Lin Jinbao's shoulder.

"Then... then let's just accept the stigma of stealing. I can't swallow this."

Lin Jinbao grew angrier the more he thought about it. It turned out that Lin Yue'e had been lying to them all, swindling them out of it, and forcing them to swallow this bitter pill.

"Alright, I have a plan that will not only help you get revenge, but also give me a hand. I'll marry her, and she'll have no choice but to marry me. I'll also give your family a hundred yuan as a bride price. What do you say, are you willing to do this?"

Zhang Tiedan put his arm around Lin Jinbao, looking like two good buddies, and even gave Lin Jinbao a Daqianmen cigarette.

"Okay, brother, go ahead. But didn't we agree on a dowry of 150? Why have you changed your mind now?"

Lin Jinbao was somewhat dissatisfied.

"One hundred and fifty? I used to think you could get her to marry me obediently, but you can't. She doesn't listen to you at all. Now I have to figure it out myself. I'm already being generous by giving you a dowry."

Zhang Tiedan no longer thought highly of Lin Jinbao. He had previously considered him as his brother-in-law, but Lin Yue'e didn't acknowledge them as a family at all.

"Alright then, I'll do as you say."

The two finally reached an agreement. They both planned to set a trap for Lin Yue'e when Lin Jinbao got married the day after tomorrow.

Lin Yue'e's biggest question right now is whose daughter she is.

She felt she should ask one of the older people in the village about this. So she went to find Grandma Wang across the street.

"Grandma Wang, there's something I find strange, and I'd like to ask you about it."

Lin Yue'e saw Grandma Wang sewing clothes at the door of her house, so she went up and sat down next to her.

"What's wrong?" It was already afternoon. The whole village was on holiday today, so no one went to work in the fields.

"I'm wondering whose daughter I really am. I feel like I wasn't born to Zhang Guifen. Look at how she treats me. It's like I'm just a tool for giving money and gifts to their family. And why do I feel like Lin Xiuhua is more like her than me?"

Lin Yue'e felt that she was asking such a private question, and that Grandma Wang would definitely not want to tell her directly.

"Oh, you guessed right. But it's not exactly a secret. Everyone back then knew about it."

When Grandma Wang talked about Lin Yue'e's background, she looked at her with sympathy.

"You are indeed not Zhang Guifen's child. Lin Xiuhua was indeed switched with you. However, everyone knew about this at the time, and it was with the permission of your biological father, Lin Xiangyang."

Grandma Wang just blurted it out. She really was Lin Xiangyang's daughter; no wonder she looked like him and no one else in the family.

"Why? There are two brothers, and they even live next door. Why should it be me and Lin Xiuhua instead?" Lin Yue'e couldn't understand.

Grandma Wang looked at her face:

"You look a lot like your mother. But your mother died after giving birth to you. Your mother's name was Zhao Xiangxing. She wasn't from around here; she came here from elsewhere during a famine. Your grandmother was still alive during those years and took Zhao Xiangxing in."

As a result, both your uncle and your father fell for her and wanted to marry her. But as you saw, your uncle was much more handsome than your father. So in the end, your mother married your uncle, who was also your father.

Lin Yue'e hadn't expected this turn of events. She immediately became interested.

"But your grandmother died right after your mother got pregnant with you. At that time, there were rumors in the village that you were a jinx. After that, Lin Xiangyang wasn't very nice to your mother anymore. He even wanted your mother to abort you."

Those were the years when everyone was struggling to get enough to eat, and your mother often went hungry, but that was normal; nobody was ever really well-fed.

Grandma Wang recalled the hardships she had endured over the years as she spoke, and wiped away a tear.

"But I gave birth, didn't I? I was born, so why am I Zhang Guifen's daughter?"

This is exactly what Lin Yue'e can't understand.

"Your mother died in childbirth. At that time, Zhang Guifen had just given birth to Lin Xiuhua two months earlier. Since your mother was gone, Lin Xiangyang, being a man, couldn't raise you. So he sent you to Zhang Guifen's place. Back then, it was a blessing if you even had any milk."

Zhang Guifen then raised you and Lin Xiuhua together. Later, you grew more and more beautiful, with big eyes and fair skin, much prettier than Lin Xiuhua. You've seen Lin Xiuhua, she's always looked like that.

Grandma Wang found it funny herself when she said this.

"As for why you became Zhang Guifen's daughter, it's not complicated. Zhang Guifen thought Lin Xiuhua was too ugly, while you were beautiful and were both raised by her. When you were a little over a year old, Lin Xiangyang found another woman to marry, who is your aunt."

Lin Xiangyang didn't even want to take his daughter back; your aunt definitely wanted to have her own child.

But Zhang Guifen refused. She insisted that Lin Xiangyang take one of the children back with him, and in the end, she insisted that Lin Xiuhua was Lin Xiangyang's daughter. Anyone with eyes could see that Lin Xiuhua looked just like Zhang Guifen.

But Zhang Guifen just thought Lin Xiuhua was ugly and insisted on keeping you by her side. Lin Xiangyang didn't care; they were just girls anyway, so he let it go.

After listening to Grandma Wang's words, Lin Yue'e felt it would have been better not to listen at all. Before, she had been wondering if it was some kind of melodramatic story about a real and fake heiress, and maybe she even had a wealthy mother.

She never imagined that her biological mother had died so early, and whether she was Zhang Guifen's daughter or not was no longer important. Even her biological father, Lin Xiangyang, didn't seem to care.

"Oh, I see. Where is my mother's grave? I'd better go burn some paper money for her."

"Why burn paper money? After your mother passed away, the Lin brothers just dug a hole in the mountains and buried her."

Anyway, your mother didn't have any family around here, and everyone was poor back then. You're over twenty now, and they've long forgotten about your mother.

"You're asking me? This old woman really doesn't know where your mother is buried. You'll have to ask your father about that."

I learned that my mother's name was Zhao Xiangxing, but it seems that's all she has left. I don't even know where she's buried.

The Lin family home became lively the next day. Wedding preparations here begin two days in advance. People from the village all go to help, and they eat at the Lin family home for the next two days.

Lin Yue'e didn't go to join the fun, planning to go tomorrow when the wedding is officially held.

On the third day, the tenth day of the tenth lunar month, a burst of firecrackers rang out in the village. Only then did Lin Yue'e head to the Lin family home. Today, the Lin family home was bustling with people coming and going, all of them there to help.

Lin Jinbao had also changed into a new outfit, with a red flower pinned to his chest; he was the groom today. What surprised Lin Yue'e, however, was that Zhang Tiedan, who had clearly fought with Lin Jinbao, was also there.

"Yue'e, you've arrived! Come and sit down. You're so late; it's already midnight. The banquet will start soon."

Lin Xiuhua immediately stepped forward and grabbed Lin Yue'e. This surprised her, as Lin Xiuhua usually would always say something sarcastic to her whenever she saw her, so this was completely unexpected.
