Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 403: Cannon Fodder She Stole the Golden Finger of the Heroine

As expected, everything happened just as Su Lan had predicted. The heroine of this story, Jiang Nian, also comes from the real world. By chance, she travels through time and space to an ancient romance novel about exile, where she transforms into a concubine's daughter in the Shangshu Mansion. Even more coincidentally, this concubine's daughter is Jiang Lan's half-sister.

When living in the present world, Jiang Nian was an absolute fan of time-travel novels. She knew all kinds of time-travel plots like the back of her hand, and she always had a beautiful wish in her heart - she hoped that one day she could travel through time and space like the protagonists in those books, and meet the loyal, elegant and ideal husband.

However, one of the factors that prompted Jiang Nian to realize this dream of time travel was precisely because it was inextricably linked to the original owner, Jiang Lan.

It turns out that Jiang Lan, the heroine of this exile story, is not only blessed with her own mysterious cultivation space, but also possesses a resolute and courageous character, far from being the indecisive or easily sympathetic type. Whenever faced with her half-sister's foolish schemes and plots, Jiang Lan never shows mercy, always retaliating with tooth for tooth, making her suffer the consequences of her own actions.

Because of this, Jiang Nian developed a deep resentment towards Jiang Lan. Strangely enough, perhaps because they shared the same name, every time she read the description of "Jiang Nian" (the concubine's younger sister)'s agonizing death, Jiang Nian felt a sense of being there, as if she were experiencing the horrific torture herself. This intense resonance made her increasingly unbearable. In her anger, she began to lash out at the author online, using harsh language and even sending him a razor blade as a symbol of threat.

But who could have imagined that one morning, when Jiang Nian slowly woke from her sleep, she was surprised to find herself in the world of the novel that had once made her so worried, and became a member of the mighty exile team...

At this time, Jiang Lan had not yet realized that the ancestral jade pendant actually concealed a magical cultivation space. So this gave the hostess an opportunity. In the dead of night, she quietly sneaked up on Jiang Lan, stole the jade pendant, and successfully completed the contract ceremony, becoming the new owner of the cultivation space.

During this long journey of fleeing famine, even wanting to drink a sip of water became an extreme luxury, not to mention that their family was branded as criminals, and their situation was extremely difficult.

However, Jiang Nianke, now a farmer, had no intention of sharing this secret with her family. Whenever night fell and everything was quiet, she would sneak away to enjoy the cool, refreshing spring water, juicy fruits, sweet and soft sweet potatoes, and other filling foods in the farming space.

Two weeks later, the story's pivotal moment finally arrived—the protagonist, Meng Fan, arrived with an elite squad to escort them on their journey. When Jiang Nian first laid eyes on this dashing, elegant young general, her heart raced like a fluttering deer. She was captivated by Meng Fan's extraordinary handsomeness and fell in love with him at first sight.

In Jiang Nian's eyes, a man as imposing and energetic as Meng Fan should be with a kind-hearted woman like herself to spend a wonderful life together, and should not have anything to do with that cruel and vicious elder sister.

So, the meticulous Jiang Nian began to carefully plan how to win over the other party. First, she used all her tricks to frequently send Meng Fan cool water and delicious food, trying to impress Meng Fan with such thoughtful actions and make him gradually accept her good intentions.

Not only that, she also cleverly used every opportunity to constantly slander and defame the original owner in front of Meng Fan, describing the original owner as a narrow-minded and morally corrupt person.

It's fair to say the ancients were too reserved. The original owner was a typical lady from a wealthy family, never leaving the house, strictly observing etiquette and moral principles. Furthermore, because she was still unmarried, she didn't have much direct contact or communication with Mr. Meng Fan, with whom she had already been engaged.

In the original novel's plot, Meng Fan was tasked with escorting the Jiang family into exile at the family's behest. Initially, Meng Fan had no high expectations for this mission, viewing it as merely a routine task.

However, as the journey progressed, and as they spent time together day after day, Meng Fan gradually discovered those subtle shining points in the original owner. Perhaps she wasn't as fragile as she appeared, but instead possessed an indomitable will and a kind and pure heart. These qualities, like a ray of warm sunshine, slowly penetrated Meng Fan's once cold heart.

But now, a more lively and lovely woman, Jiang Nian, suddenly broke into their lives. Compared with the old-fashioned, polite, and slightly reserved original owner, Jiang Nian was like a free-flying bird, full of life and energy.

Her every smile and frown was as dazzling as a flower blooming in spring, making people want to get closer. Faced with such a sharp contrast, any normal man would probably be attracted to Jiang Nian.

Jiang Nian certainly lived up to her inherent charm. In just two months, she had completely captured Meng Fan's heart. During this time, she used the convenience of her own planting space to make him realize how important she was.

After succeeding, Jiang Nian became even more aggressive and turned against everyone, falsely accusing everyone in the Shangshu Mansion of abusing her, a poor concubine's daughter, for a long time, in order to arouse Meng Fan's anger and make him vent his anger on her behalf.

The result is predictable. Ever since Jiang Nian succeeded, the life of the original owner and his family has become increasingly difficult and hard. The food they can get every day is pitifully meager, just a cold, hard steamed bun and half a bowl of water.

If this continued, the original owner's grandmother, who was already in a weak body, could not bear such harsh living conditions and died soon after.

What is even more abominable is that the heartless Jiang Nian actually ordered those ferocious officers and soldiers to mercilessly abandon the old man's body in the deserted mountains.

You know, the reason why Jiang Nian, who was familiar with many novels, did such a heartless thing was simply because he felt that Madam Jiang had always looked down on him as a concubine's daughter, and even refused to give him the title of concubine of his biological mother.

The original owner watched helplessly as her kind, gentle, and highly respected grandmother suffered such a horrible treatment, feeling a pang of pain piercing her heart. With tears streaming down her face, she knelt without hesitation, begging Jiang Nian to show some mercy and allow her to collect her grandmother's body and establish a grave. However, the cold-blooded Jiang Nian mercilessly rejected her humble request.

From there, they continued their journey, passing a bandit stronghold. The cunning Jiang Nian devised a treacherous plan, successfully luring the unsuspecting Original Owner into the stronghold. The poor Original Owner was instantly trapped, surrounded by dozens of vicious bandits and brutally raped. Exhausted and humiliated, the Original Owner ultimately chose to end her tragic life by biting her tongue.

What is heartbreaking is that even though the original owner died unjustly, her father and other members of the tribe still did not get a good end. They suffered hardships during the journey of exile, and died one after another in a foreign land, with not even a complete skeleton left in the world.

When the escort team finally reached the end of their exile, Jiang Nian was the only one left alive in the once-large Jiang family. However, the heartless Meng Fan felt no guilt or remorse. In his narrow-minded and twisted mindset, the Jiang family was the culprit for persecuting his beloved, and their current fate was entirely their own fault.

Especially for Jiang Lan, who had passed away, Meng Fan turned a blind eye. Because with Jiang Lan's departure, the engagement between them naturally came to nothing. This way, he could stay with Jiang Nian forever and write a love song with peace of mind.
