Chapter 3 Past Life and Present Life

Her maternal grandmother showered her with all her love, always presenting her as a gentle and virtuous lady. Yet, she would rush over and fight with an older woman from the compound who called her a fool, sitting at their doorstep and cursing them for three days and three nights until they would avoid her altogether, probably not daring to utter a single word against her at home.

Her older brother had always protected her since she was a child, taking things one step at a time. As long as she was around, her older brother had no activities of his own. Eighty percent of the fights in the compound were caused by her, and he had become the tyrant of the compound. Even when his grandmother forced him to join the army, he still gave her every penny of his monthly allowance.

Unfortunately, this happiness came to an abrupt end two years ago.

Her maternal grandparents seemed to have sensed something and suddenly sent her to a neighboring city, then transferred her to their hometown in Shanghai. At the same time, they secretly changed her household registration and identity through connections and entrusted her to a distant cousin on her maternal grandmother's side. They claimed to the outside world that she was the daughter of a distant married woman from the Ma family, and that she was brought back after her parents died unexpectedly.

Whether it was because Grandma had already chosen this family or it was just a coincidence, the Ma family did indeed have a distant relative who married into a family with the surname Bai. However, that family had long since passed away.

From then on, she had no more news of her family, including her older brother's side. She didn't know how to contact her grandmother. She only remembered that when she left home, her grandmother kept telling her not to tell anyone her grandfather's or uncle's identities, and to wait obediently for her grandmother to pick her up.

The Ma family treated her well at first, but unfortunately, her maternal grandmother's cousin passed away not long after.

Fortunately, although she was mentally impaired, she wasn't so easy to bully. Even if they deliberately let her go hungry and sleep in the storeroom, at least she could still survive.

But this time it's different!
