Qinghe County, Shen Family Village, Yunlan Country.
Amidst green mountains and clear waters, a Village faintly appeared, with cotton-like white mist enveloping the mountainside, resembling a fairyland on earth.
In the Village, a Young Man was excitedly and agitatedly beating a gong, notifying every household—
“Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang!”
“Good news, good news, the Little Omen Star is marrying far away!”
“The Matchmaker has already gone to the house. As long as the elders from both sides agree, the Little Omen Star will be taken away by the Matchmaker immediately, and our Shen Family Village will finally have peace!!”
“Good news, good news, the Little Omen Star is marrying far away, and she won't be able to harm our Village anymore!!!”
Amidst the Young Man's joyous shouts, the villagers flocked towards one farmhouse; some were moved to tears of excitement, while others even wept tears of joy...
The Little Omen Star was finally getting married!
So painful!
Shen Ruoxi shook her head, her vision blurred by pain. She reached up to cover her throbbing forehead and slowly got up from the ground.
She had stayed up late reading a novel, and when she got out of bed to get some water, she tripped over her own feet and fell, hitting her forehead on a Chair. It hurt terribly.
Her eyes obscured by tears, Shen Ruoxi reached out to feel for the bed, intending to sit on the edge to recover, but—her hand met empty air.
Feeling strange, she quickly wiped away her tears to assess the situation.
Upon looking, she was completely stunned—
Under the blue sky and white clouds, in a quaint courtyard of an ancient-style Village, the courtyard was surrounded by villagers dressed in historical clothing, men and women, old and young, all staring—at her. Yes, staring at her, with happy smiles on their faces, as if a great joyous event had occurred.
While she was dazed, a voice filled with helplessness mixed with disgust reached her ears, “Ruoxi, stop struggling. Be good and go with the Matchmaker.”
Shen Ruoxi instinctively looked toward the speaker; it was an Old Man in his fifties, his face worried but showing an expression of relief.
Shen Ruoxi, “???”
Standing next to the Old Man was an Old Woman, whose disgust was even more pronounced, almost tangible. She scolded irritably, “Shen Ruoxi, hurry up and scram! After you marry, you are never allowed to come back!”
Shen Ruoxi?
How did they know her name was Shen Ruoxi?
The Old Woman, utterly fed up, urged, “Matchmaker Zhang, hurry up and take her away. Blindfold her when you leave; she absolutely cannot be allowed to find her way back.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Ruoxi felt her wrist grabbed and was dragged toward the courtyard exit.
This sentence sounded familiar too; it seemed like something she had read in the novel she had just finished staying up late to read. At this moment, an unbelievable thought popped into Shen Ruoxi’s mind. She blinked hard, trying to see if everything before her was a hallucination.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard she blinked, the scene before her did not change in the slightest.
The force on her wrist pulled Shen Ruoxi back to reality. She yanked her hand away from Matchmaker Zhang’s grip, “Let go!”
Just then, a lame Young Man held a broadsword horizontally, less than a foot from Shen Ruoxi’s neck. His eyes were filled with extreme hatred, and he gritted his teeth, saying, “Shen Ruoxi, today you either die or you marry!”
Shen Ruoxi looked toward the Young Man. Contacting the murderous glare in his eyes, in a flash of lightning, her mind cleared—
Shen Ruoxi!!!
She had truly become a character in the novel, and the most vicious supporting female character—Shen Ruoxi.
Shen Ruoxi was the central figure in the farming novel, *The Most Vicious Supporting Female Character in History*, who angered her mother into paralysis, sickened her father, caused her older brother to go missing, caused her Sister-in-law to have a premature birth, caused her Younger Sister to be disfigured, caused her younger brother to break his leg, framed friends, borrowed from loan sharks—she committed every evil deed possible. In the end, she died of illness, and her body wasn't discovered until a month later, leaving her with the notorious reputation in the Village of being a Little Omen Star capable of stopping children from crying.
This was the most vicious supporting female character she, as an avid reader, had ever encountered, bar none!
Shen Ruoxi was on the verge of tears.
She looked around while recalling the plot.
Judging by the characters and the setting, the plot at this moment should be: The Original Owner borrowed money from loan sharks, and when the repayment date arrived, she couldn't pay, so the Creditor came to the house to demand the debt.
She had borrowed Five Liang of Silver, and now she had to repay Ten taels of silver. The family simply could not produce that much money.
Seeing that they couldn't pay, the Creditor took out the Deed of House and Deed of Land she had stolen and used as collateral, demanding that the entire family move out immediately.
Her grandparents were nearly angered to death. Under duress, they found Matchmaker Zhang, asking her to find someone—anyone willing to pay Ten taels of silver to marry a wife. It didn't matter if the person was short or tall, fat or thin, old or young; they would marry Shen Ruoxi off, and the husband's family had to be far away.
The Original Owner naturally refused and struggled violently when Matchmaker Zhang grabbed her, accidentally falling onto the stone block by the door, and then Shen Ruoxi took over.
Shen Ruoxi cursed inwardly. This vicious woman was so evil that she angered both gods and men, so evil that her ancestors would rise from their graves. Dying was one thing, but why did she have to drag her into this?
Thinking about the mess she now had to clean up, Shen Ruoxi couldn't help but hold her forehead, momentarily wishing she could bang her head again to see if she could transmigrate back.
As she held her forehead, her hand touched the wound, causing a sharp pain. Simultaneously, a warm, slick sensation came to her palm. She brought her hand down, and her palm was covered in blood-red, glaring fresh blood.
Seeing this, Shen Ruoxi became scared. What if banging her head didn't send her back, but killed her instead?
Considering that possibility, Shen Ruoxi dared not hit her head again.
If she didn't dare to hit it, there was only one option left—a true warrior dares to face a bleak life head-on, dares to look directly at flowing blood.
She decisively turned around, knelt before the Old Man, and pleaded sincerely, “Grandfather, I know I was wrong. Please give me one more chance. I will definitely change in the future. Please spare me this once?”
Only if the head of the household revoked the order could she avoid marrying; otherwise, she was set to marry today.
Everyone had heard these words until their ears were calloused. Every time Shen Ruoxi said this, she would admit her mistake but never correct her behavior, causing everyone to instinctively dislike hearing it.
The Old Man paid no heed, waving his hand in annoyance, “Matchmaker Zhang, take her away.”
Matchmaker Zhang came over again to pull her.
Shen Ruoxi quickly hid behind the Old Man. She swore she had never been this agile in her life, “Grandfather, I am your biological granddaughter. Are you really just going to watch me jump into a pit of fire?”
If the Old Man hadn't considered that she was his biological granddaughter, he would have sold her long ago; how could he have gone to the trouble of finding a Matchmaker to marry her off? “Ruoxi, think about what you did before. Grandfather has already been very lenient with you.”
Shen Ruoxi felt the Old Man was quite soft-hearted, so she quickly begged again, “Grandfather, I truly know I was wrong. Give me one more chance; this time I absolutely, absolutely will change!”
The Old Woman cursed angrily, “Shen Ruoxi, you debt-collecting ghost, you Heavenly Scourge! You know your Grandfather is soft-hearted and always lets you off. From childhood until now, how many times has he spared you? Old man, you absolutely cannot be soft-hearted this time!”
Shen Ruoxi grew anxious in secret. Just as the Old Man seemed to waver, the Old Woman’s words made him firm again.
Time to settle for the next best thing.
