Wang Ru pinched the center of her palm, feeling as if her heart were scorched by fire. Ever since she'd arrived in the ancient past, nothing had gone smoothly for her. She had read novels where time-traveling women were always the protagonists, but in her case, it had been a series of misfortunes. She couldn't just wait for her fate to change; after much deliberation, she'd set her sights on the Zhou family.
Wang Ru pinched herself, bringing tears to her eyes, which, combined with her pitifully disheveled face, made a sorrowful sight, "Grandma Zhou, my grandmother fears you, and you're the only one in the village who can save me. Please, take pity on me and save me. My grandmother wants to beat me to death."
