Seeing that Li Mingyu was angry, Zhao Jinli took the opportunity to say, "Shujuan, don't blame your mother for scolding you. If it were me, I would scold you too. You're young and beautiful and your family background is not bad either. There are so many young men wooing you and all of them are rich and powerful. Why do you have to be someone else's stepmother?"
"I agree with Jinli!" Aunt Gu also persuaded. "Shujuan, you are still young and have never been married. You have never been a mother either. You don't know what it feels like to be someone else's stepmother. If you insist on marrying him, there is no medicine for regret."
Glancing at Zhao Jinli, Ding Shujuan stood at the side and said with a half-smile, "Aunt Gu, Sister Zhao, I appreciate everyone's good intentions. I know that all of you are doing this for my own good, but whether I get married or not, who I marry, it's my own business. I have the final say in my marriage. I have to go to the blind date today."
Li Mingyu was furious when she heard that. She picked up the feather duster and rushed over, looking like she was going to beat Ding Shujuan to death.
"Kill me if you dare!" Ding Shujuan stood still on the spot with a bright smile on her face, as if she was an outsider.
There were at least fifty, if not a hundred people, who came to watch. How could they watch Li Mingyu beat up her daughter on the streets? They tried to stop her.
"Auntie Li, let's talk things out. We can't solve the problem by violence."
"Shujuan, hurry up and run. When your mother's anger has subsided, you can apologize to her."
"Mingyu, it's now the era of the freedom to love. Since Shujuan wants to go on a blind date, just let her go. Why are you making such a fuss?"
The crowd started to talk amongst themselves. It was very lively.
Beep! Beep! The car that led to the county city arrived.
Ding Shujuan grinned and pushed Zhao Jinli away before rushing over. Before anyone could react, she had already gotten into the car. She even waved goodbye to everyone below the car and smiled brightly.
Zhao Jinli was helped up by someone. She looked at the elated Ding Shujuan and said angrily, "Shujuan must have gone crazy since she couldn't find her ideal husband."
"Woah, look at how happy this girl is. If she really becomes someone's stepmother, she will cry in three days. I think her brain has been squeezed by the door. She is definitely abnormal." Aunt Gu shook her head.
She clearly knew that there was a fire pit in front of her. No matter how much she was persuaded, she could not be stopped and wanted to jump into the fire pit. Was there anything wrong with her brain?
As they watched the car drive away, everyone was collectively puzzled. It was such a pity for a good girl to have gone crazy just like that
What the crowd did not know was that in Ding Shujuan's eyes, they were the ones who had gone crazy. They actually stopped her from making a new choice. She was 100% sure that she had not gone crazy. She had transmigrated into a book that she had written. Her fortune was explosively good.
With the rise of online literature in recent years, postmodern novels have been gaining popularity. Combined with her life experience, Ding Shujuan made herself the protagonist and used her free time to write a postmodern novel. As the protagonist of the novel, she married a soldier who was fifteen years older than her and helped the man raise his two children.
According to the plot of the novel, this man was a high-ranking officer in the army. After she became his wife, her family lived in the military compound, and she became the most beautiful, gentle, and reputable stepmother.
In order to highlight the prominence of the female lead, Ding Shujuan even wrote a supporting character and used her whole life to bring out the female lead's halo, and this supporting character was Chu Wei.
In the original text, as the protagonist, she had compared herself to Chu Wei in three aspects. In terms of marriage, Chu Wei had married Chen Ji. Although she had many achievements, she was always suppressed by her husband.
In terms of children, her two stepchildren were smart and obedient. They had been geniuses since they were young. On the other hand, of Chu Wei's two daughters, one was naturally slow-witted while the other was naughty and mischievous. None of them were outstanding.
In terms of family background, her family ran a business. Even if she was not the richest in the town, she was still better than Chu Wei.
According to the storyline, after becoming the wife of a soldier, she used her husband's glory to take over many businesses in the army. Earning money was easy and enjoyable. Even after Chen Ji reached an unprecedented height in the army, he had to admit that her two stepchildren were outstanding. He willingly became their backer and helped her stepchildren greatly in their careers.
The only thing that Ding Shujuan felt regretful about was that the book was still in serialization. Before she could finish writing it, she fainted by accident. When she opened her eyes again, she had already transmigrated into the book that she had written. After a long time, she had no choice but to accept her fate.
As the author of the novel, she was very clear about the details of the story that happened later on. It wasn't easy for her to transmigrate, so she naturally had to experience the pleasure of being the protagonist. Otherwise, wouldn't she have transmigrated for nothing?
