September 3, 1965.
Nanshi City.
The Xiang family villa garden in the city center.
“Miss, I know you don’t want to follow the army, but the Lu family has already come three times. If we don’t think of a solution soon, your affair with Young Master Ning won’t stay hidden!”
“How about you elope with Young Master Ning? Haven’t a lot of young people been heading to the countryside lately to support construction? Why don’t you sign up first, and come back after some time, once the Lu family has given up?”
“That way, the Lu family definitely won’t be able to find you!”
Xiang Wanwan lay on the swing in the villa garden, her eyes tightly shut.
She felt as if she were experiencing sleep paralysis.
The noisy voice in her ears grew clearer and clearer. She desperately tried to open her eyes, but no matter what she did, she couldn’t!
All she could do was listen to the woman beside her chattering nonstop.
“If Uncle Xiang looks into it later, I’ll take responsibility.”
“You can rest easy and go with Young Master Ning!”
Suddenly, Xiang Wanwan snapped her eyes open.
What greeted her vision was a stretch of green. She turned her head and saw a delicate-looking girl beside her, still talking incessantly to her.
Wasn’t she taking a nap in the office?
How did she wake up somewhere else?
Had the company boss run off with the money?
Before she could process it, a massive flood of memories surged into her mind.
Xiang Wanwan widened her eyes.
She had actually transmigrated?
And into a novel titled “The Capitalist Nanny: Following the Army to Win the Military District Commander”.
Worse still—she was a cannon-fodder female supporting character!
The original host’s name was also Xiang Wanwan, a genuine capitalist heiress.
The day after the original host’s mother passed away, the family’s nanny—who had worked for them for ten years—brought her own daughter to the Xiang household.
She claimed her husband had died and there was no one to look after the child, so she brought her over to be a playmate.
That daughter was the female lead—An Shuxue.
And her scumbag father agreed without the slightest hesitation.
Thus, the two girls grew up together like real sisters, yet An Shuxue ended up stealing her husband!
She even schemed to make the original host cheat and fall in love with the son of a textile factory director, Ning Feng.
And the reason she did all this was absurd—her space mission required her to攻略 the original host’s commander husband.
Later, the Ning family was exposed for corruption and sent down to a farm!
Blinded by so-called love, the original host followed them there.
A capitalist heiress who had never lifted a finger—how could she possibly adapt to life on a farm?
After arriving, Ning Feng set his sights on the village head’s daughter, completely ignored her, and even had local hooligans bully her.
In the end, the original host didn’t even last half a year before falling gravely ill and dying silently on the farm!
And her scumbag father—before the seventh day after her death had even passed—married that nanny as his new wife.
An Shuxue, as the Xiang family’s only daughter, went to inform the male lead of the death and took the opportunity to攻略 him.
In the end, she became the military district commander’s wife!
From beginning to end, the original host was nothing but pure cannon fodder.
After digesting all these memories, Xiang Wanwan was so furious she felt like she might explode.
Who would even read a novel like this?
The values were completely warped, weren’t they?
The female lead resorted to any means necessary to frame the original host, stole someone else’s husband over a space mission—wasn’t that supposed to be a second female lead’s role?
And this kind of character could still be the female lead?
What a joke!
Just then, An Shuxue’s voice rang out again beside her.
“Miss, how about I pack your things now and take you to Young Master Ning?”
“If the Lu family comes again tomorrow, I’ll say you went to the countryside to support construction and won’t be back for several years.”
Xiang Wanwan could barely stand listening anymore.
Supporting construction in the countryside?
Wasn’t this just a way to drive her out?
The reason the original host came to like that scumbag Ning Feng was because An Shuxue whispered in her ear every single day.
Saying Ning Feng liked her, treated her well, and was far better than Lu Jingnian, who was stationed far away on an island.
She even said marrying Lu Jingnian would mean living like a widow!
Bah!
Just as Xiang Wanwan was about to speak, An Shuxue’s mother—Li Jinglan, the nanny who had worked in their home for ten years—walked out.
“What are you two whispering about again?”
Xiang Wanwan looked at the middle-aged woman approaching.
Dressed in a nanny’s uniform, she was getting on in years yet still carried herself with charm—curves in all the right places, glossy black hair.
As soon as she reached them, An Shuxue hooked her arm around hers and spoke coquettishly:
“Mom, I was just suggesting that Miss go to the countryside with Young Master Ning to lay low for a bit. When she comes back in a few years, the Lu family definitely won’t force her to follow the army anymore.”
“You—you little schemer!”
Li Jinglan laughed and lightly tapped her nose, her face full of indulgence.
Then she turned to Xiang Wanwan. “Miss, I think Shuxue’s suggestion is quite good. I’ve heard the air in the countryside is much better than in the city!”
Hearing this, Xiang Wanwan curled her lips into a cold smile.
They really couldn’t come up with a better excuse, could they?
Even “fresh air” was dragged out.
Seeing her remain silent, smiling coldly, Li Jinglan froze.
What was wrong with this dead girl today?
She felt different from usual!
Normally, she would happily accept any suggestion they gave—and even thank them afterward.
But today, after saying so much, there was no reaction at all.
Could it be that she had quarreled with Ning Feng?
Li Jinglan secretly shot An Shuxue a look. Understanding immediately, An Shuxue continued:
“Miss, there’s no time to lose. I’ll go pack your things right away.”
“Smack!”
Xiang Wanwan couldn’t hold back anymore and raised her hand, slapping An Shuxue across the face.
An Shuxue froze on the spot, her face full of disbelief.
Li Jinglan was also caught completely off guard by the sudden slap.
Then she let out a sharp shout, “Miss, are you crazy?!”
“Smack!”
Another slap landed squarely on Li Jinglan’s face.
Both of them were instantly petrified.
Did she even know what she was doing?
Xiang Wanwan slowly parted her lips, her expression stern and unquestionable.
“What I do—since when is it your place to point fingers?”
“Don’t forget, you’re just the Xiang family’s—nanny.”
She deliberately emphasized the last two words.
“And who said I’m eloping with Ning Feng?”
“If the countryside is so great, why don’t I go register An Shuxue right now and let her enjoy that rare, wonderful countryside air!”
Xiang Wanwan’s string of rhetorical questions left the two of them completely dumbfounded.
At that moment, Xiang Xinrong heard the commotion and walked out of the house.
The past few days, he had been driven half-mad by the Lu family’s visits.
The Lu family had been soldiers for generations and were one of the most influential military families in Nanshi.
He didn’t dare tell them the truth at all.
If the Lu family found out that Wanwan had cheated and fallen for that Ning Feng brat, the Xiang family wouldn’t survive in Nanshi anymore.
With a dark face, he entered the garden. The moment he saw the slap marks on Li Jinglan and her daughter’s faces, he exploded.
“Xiang Wanwan, what have you done?!”
He walked over to Li Jinglan with concern and asked in a low voice, “Did that unfilial daughter hit you?”
Li Jinglan’s eyes instantly reddened, her voice tinged with sobs.
“Miss was in a bad mood. She didn’t do it on purpose.”
An Shuxue added fuel to the fire from the side. “It’s all my fault. I suggested that Miss go to the countryside with Young Master Ning to lie low. Maybe Miss didn’t want to go, so she just…”
Xiang Wanwan watched the scene before her and sneered inwardly.
As expected of a mother and daughter.
Their acting skills were equally impressive.
Xiang Xinrong’s chest heaved violently with rage as he shouted at Xiang Wanwan:
“You unfilial daughter! They’re right—you’re leaving! Leave immediately and get the hell to the countryside!”
“Dad, are you sure you want me gone? A military wife eloping with another man is illegal. With the Lu family’s methods, do you really think it can be hidden? When that happens, the Xiang family’s immense fortune…”
The moment these words fell, Xiang Xinrong froze in place.
