Happiness System

Chapter 4: The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Scholar-President (3)

"00, what is the original owner's wish?"

"Ding, host, the original owner's wish is to be a rich young lady! An additional wish is to take good care of her little brother!" Little Cloud suddenly became excited. Is the host ready to work hard? !

"..."It's so difficult. The most frightening thing is that even the identity of the second male lead and the third place winner will be lost by Butterfly!

I want to lie down!

It’s not fun to struggle with your husband!

Qin Yunxi stared at the bed curtain, thinking about the possibility of changing the task.

Finally, I thought about it, what if the next task is a palace fighting drama or a house fighting drama?

Will she not survive more than three episodes?

Forget it, let’s just stay calm for now!

The system floated around and looked at her expression. It racked its brains but couldn't figure out what the host was thinking. It was still wondering why the host didn't allow it to read brain waves. How great it would be if it could synchronize its brain waves with the host's. It would know what the host was thinking at the first moment and give a response immediately!

But unexpectedly, the host wanted to give up the mission. They were just a step away from getting the duck egg in the first mission!

Suddenly, Qin Yunxi's expression changed: "00, get out! Now! Right now! Disappear!"

The little cloud was startled, but still disappeared quickly with a wronged look on its face.

As soon as the little cloud disappeared, she got out of bed and rushed behind a curtain in the corner of the room.

Well, people have three urgent needs, it's normal! It's normal!

It's just that, using a toilet is so embarrassing!

That thing was put in after the original owner fell ill. Fortunately, the scholar was clean and diligent, so there was basically no smell in the room.

Qin Yunxi poured herself a glass of water to calm herself, but the more she drank, the hungrier she became.

The fever in this body has gone down, the appetite is back, and I’m feeling quite hungry!

She tilted her head and thought for a while. The current time period was half a year after the original owner got married. Her grandmother had passed away for several months. Of course, her savings had been used up on medicine!

This time, the medicine was exchanged by the scholar husband by copying books.

Because she was often sick, she ate porridge made of fine grains or noodles, while her scholar husband ate porridge made of wild vegetables and coarse grains. They could not afford meat.

Qin Yunxi looked through the dressing table and found some copper coins, probably less than twenty in total. There were no gold or silver jewelry or anything like that. The original owner had been asked to change her medicine!

The most valuable thing in the whole house is probably the original owner’s dowry: the dressing table and the bed, right?

Poor, really poor! This is so poor!

"Madam, why are you up? Are you feeling better?"

Qin Yunxi was startled and didn't know when this person came in. She turned around and opened her mouth, but in the end all she said was "I'm hungry."

He spoke with great confidence, just like the original owner!

The scholar glanced at the corner and said hesitantly, "The porridge is warm in the pot. Madam, can you eat in the kitchen?"

"Yeah." Qin Yunxi walked out.

The scholar put the porridge on the table and hurried out.

While she was drinking porridge, she saw him out of the corner of her eye carrying a familiar bucket and walking out of the yard...

This? As long as I am not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed!

It was really porridge, a bowl of slightly yellow rice porridge, not to mention any green vegetables, there wasn't even a single pickled vegetable!

The porridge didn’t taste good. It didn’t have the sweet taste of natural food as described in the novels…

Maybe it’s because of the old rice?

Qin Yunxi finished the porridge in a few mouthfuls and rinsed the bowl with water.

I took a look in the kitchen and saw that her family's food reserves totaled only about two or three pounds, with half of the food being fine grains.

That is to say, even if she had a bowl of porridge for each of her three meals a day, she would have nothing to eat after two or three days.

She was in a low mood. What kind of good life system was this? It let her suffer from poverty, hardship, hunger, and then think back to her past life of eating well and living well, and then compare her happiness?

There was nothing interesting to see in the small kitchen, so she walked out of the yard.

Despite the original owner's memories, after looking at the entire house, he couldn't help but sigh.

This family is indeed poor, even poorer than I imagined. They don’t even have a living room!

We can only eat in the kitchen, the yard, or the bedroom.

There are only three rooms in the whole house: a kitchen, a bedroom, and a study and storage room.

The yard is a little bigger than the house, probably because the scholar is too busy making a living to take care of it. The whole yard is empty, except for a small firewood shed in the corner to store firewood. There are no flowers or even tall weeds in the rest of the yard!

Qin Yunxi slapped her forehead. She felt like she was going to have a headache. How could she be so poor?

"Madam, do you have a headache? It's windy, why don't you lie down in the house for a while?"

Qin Yunxi turned around and looked over.

The scholar said these caring words but his expression was indifferent.

He was holding a toilet in his hand, which should have been out of place, but the picture was strangely harmonious.

It seems like he is holding a book basket in his hand?

Well, this is a scholar with a very down-to-earth feel!

"Um, I do have a headache." She held her forehead and went back to her room.

The scholar put the bucket back to its original place, left the door ajar and left.

Qin Yunxi didn't know how long she had been lying there. Her whole body was sore and she always felt something was wrong.

After walking around the room twice, she took out the original owner's things and looked at them.

In a corner I found a small bag containing some embroidery.

The most valuable things among all were probably these embroidery pieces, which she was going to give as a gift to her "relatives" after she married into a "wealthy family".

I heard from my grandmother that a new bride in a wealthy family must be given a gift when she enters the house, so she prepared it early.

The original owner's idea was that since she didn't have the money to buy it, she could prepare one herself. It would show her thoughtfulness and would not be impolite. After all, her embroidery skills were quite good.

"00?"

"Ding, host, 00 is at your service!" A small cloud appeared in circles.

"Is the original owner still alive? I mean, does this body plus me have two souls? Do we coexist?"

"Ding, host, don't worry, the original owner is gone, and you are the only soul left. This body will be yours from now on, and you can make the decision!"

"That's good!" The most feared thing is that the original owner would have a brain attack from time to time and come out to cause trouble!

No wonder she received the memories but did not have the emotions of the original owner. When reading the memories, she did not have any extra emotions or empathy, just like watching a play or a movie.

This is good, it makes it easier for her to do things!

"Hey, host, the second male lead is so good, with such looks, figure, and personality... Oh, I wonder how many women must have this ideal type? How many women's dream lover he is, host, you've made a killing!"

"00, it's a shame that you don't become a matchmaker!" Qin Yunxi's brain twitched. Why is she a married woman?

trouble!

"Damn, yo, host, I think so too, but I don't introduce ordinary people to others! 00, let me tell you..."

"Come on, you can't communicate with other people!" He's getting excited!

"Damn, host, you see the truth but don't say it out loud. Be a good person!" It's so frustrating. This host doesn't even know how to give way to the little system!

Qin Yunxi rolled her eyes at it and continued to organize the things in her hands.

dong dong dong...

"Drop, eh? Host, the silver fell!" The little cloud said as it floated over. If it were a physical entity, it would probably pick it up and play with it.

Qin Yunxi picked up the silver and thought about it. It was five taels of silver. The original owner did not have this much silver in his memory!

When the original owner was a child, her grandmother's eyesight was not very good and she produced things very slowly. Fortunately, she was an experienced craftsman and the quality of the things she made was not too bad based on her experience. The original owner was raised by her grandmother with the money she earned from selling embroidery.

Later, my grandmother could no longer do the work, and the original owner became a master. The price of the embroidery was slightly higher than that in my grandmother's heyday. My grandmother only took a small part of the money for the daily life of the two of them, and left the rest to the original owner.

As for savings, there definitely isn't much.

The original owner's grandfather was unreliable and a drag, and the money her grandmother earned from selling embroidery was not only used to feed her children but also to support her husband's drinking and card games. Fortunately, her grandfather was sensible and only caused minor incidents that didn't cause any major trouble.

After the family split up, the original owner lived alone. His parents and uncles would come to exploit him from time to time. The grandparents and grandchildren also had to use them to do rough work, so naturally they had to pay some money to cope with it.

As for the original owner, she was dreaming of becoming a young lady, so she couldn't lower her status too much. Apart from eating too much in the village, she was unwilling to compromise in anything else.

Clothes are all made of fine cotton, and you have to buy one or two pieces of jewelry every month, and there are also things that women put on their faces...

The most important thing is that she decided that she would be a lady in the future, so she couldn't be so cheap. Later on, she only did large pieces of embroidery and she wasn't very diligent.

The money earned from embroidery orders is naturally not much, and also because she seldom goes out and has limited experience, she has little knowledge of and desire for money.

After the original owner fell ill, the medicine she took was good medicine for ordinary people, and of course the price was not low. Then she squandered all her silver and jewelry...

Qin Yunxi frowned and sorted out the things in the small package one by one. There was nothing else extra, and the silver was most likely put in there accidentally.

According to the main storyline, the original owner probably didn't find the money in the end. This package of embroidery was her last obsession and fantasy, and she probably never sold it until her death.

In the end, it is very likely that the scholar buried the things as burial objects of the original owner!

To be honest, it’s a bit disgusting!

This thing must be sold, but not now. The original owner had superb craftsmanship, and these things could not be sold at a good price in the town. Now that she had five taels of silver in her hand, she didn't want to sell it at a low price.

She still needs to sort things out and have an overall idea and plan for her future life.
