Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 136: I Want You to Live a Life Worse Than Death

"Right! Actually, you should not have allowed me to be born. You had let the village midwife kill my mother. Why didn’t you just let me die in my mother’s womb?" Su Yijia smiled maliciously, leaning lazily against the wall as she watched them.

Su Jianshe and Lin Cuifen saw her and immediately crawled toward the closed iron bars.

"You wicked girl, what are you doing here now? You’re here to mock us, aren’t you? Hah! Even if we’re a laughingstock, where do you think you stand? If you don’t use the connections of that paraplegic, you might even have a chance to divorce in the future. But yy seeking revenge on us through him, you’ll owe him a lifetime of gratitude," Lin Cuifen, like an evil spirit, spoke with a sinister and eerie expression.

"You foolish woman, what are you going crazy for? Yijia, don’t... Mmm..." Su Jianshe’s words were cut off as Lin Cuifen forcefully covered his mouth.

Her grip was so tight it felt as if she were trying to smother him to death.

"Don’t plead with her! Do you think that at this point, this wretch will forgive us? Don’t dream!" Lin Cuifen ranted, and it was as if she had lost her mind.

Su Jianshe struggled and finally managed to push her away.

There was no time for anger. He immediately turned to Su Yijia, wanting to finish the interrupted plea. However, when he saw the smile on Su Yijia’s face, devoid of any emotion, and her gaze as if she were watching a monkey show, he suddenly deflated. Despairingly, he sat down.

Lin Cuifen got up from the ground, grabbed the iron bars again, and laughed maniacally.

"You wicked girl, don’t get too cocky. I don’t regret leaving you alive back then at all. Letting you die directly would have been too easy. You’ve spent twenty years serving us like an ox and a horse, and you’ll have to serve that dead paraplegic for the rest of your life. No children, living like a widow. Living through this lifetime will be your real torment."

Indeed!

Following the trajectory in the book, the original host had it pretty rough. Su Yijia raised her eyebrows nonchalantly. "So you should be grateful to me for giving you a merciful end. At most, in another three months, you’ll be executed."

Both Lin Cuifen and Su Jianshe were startled, their pupils dilated as they looked at her in panic.

"You... You’re talking nonsense! How could we be sentenced so severely?"

"Because I’m kind-hearted! I’m afraid you’ll get a life sentence and live in despair. That’s why I specially requested a strict punishment for you. I’m giving you a merciful end. You should be grateful to me now," Su Yijia said in a cryptic tone.

Lin Cuifen reached her hand out beyond the fence, desperately reaching forward, trying to grab her. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"You wicked girl! I’ll strangle you! You’ve harmed me! You dared to do this to me!"

"An eye for an eye, it’s only fair and square," Su Yijia stood up straight and took a step forward, stopping just five centimeters from Lin Cuifen’s fingertips, allowing her to feel the true bitterness and despair.

"It’s impossible! Lin Baozhu was just a promiscuous woman. She only committed indecency to bear you. She deserved the death penalty. I’ve merely ensured that someone who wanted to escape justice faced the punishment she deserved. Why should I be sentenced?" Lin Cuifen protested defiantly.

Struggling to get to Su Yijia, her eyes were almost popping out, and veins on her face were bulging.

"Come on, these days, having a wedding banquet is considered marriage; many people don’t even have a marriage certificate. If this is considered an indecency crime, then what about your beloved daughter? How about I follow your suggestion and have her join you, so your whole family can be together? You don’t need to thank me too much." Su Yijia made this proposal with apparent satisfaction, and she lowered her eyelids as if considering how to proceed.

"No! You’re not allowed to harm Xinyue! Otherwise, I won’t let you go, even in the afterlife!" Lin Cuifen was frantic, her facial features contorted in a terrifying manner.

"Even if you’re alive, I’m not afraid of you. Do you think I’ll be afraid of you when you’re dead?" Su Yijia spoke as though she had heard the most ridiculous joke.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest, assessing the two people in the adjacent cell from top to bottom.

"Ah, the two of you are really something. You to families have enjoyed two decades of comfort together, but the Lin family were released while you have to pay with your lives. Your whole existence is such a joke."

Lin Cuifen paused for a moment, but she seemed uninterested in discussing this further. Her gaze towards Su Yijia had turned completely scornful.

"Whatever the outcome, we’re better off than a monster like you, who has no one to love or care for! If your mother didn’t carry you, she wouldn’t have suffered the harassment. If your mother didn’t carry you, she wouldn’t have hidden in the village and wouldn’t have died. Your grandparents, those two stubborn old folks who worked at the farm for so many years, didn’t say a word for so long. They might have died by now. Even if they didn’t, in their eyes, you’re just the offspring that brought disaster to their family. They’d only hold grudges against you, not love you. Look at your real father; he didn’t want you and your mother back then. Even if you find him now, he won’t recognize you. Your in-laws also despise you. Even if you marry a paralyzed man, he won’t like you. He’ll treat you as a free servant. Your whole life is a joke."

Despite the words being daggers aimed at Su Yijia’s heart, Lin Cuifen’s tone grew more twisted and aggressive as she continued.

"Who told you my grandparents would despise me? They’ve returned, and now they dote on me! And we’ve found a treatment for my husband’s illness. In half a year, he will not only be able to stand up again but also return to the unit." Su Yijia sounded like a proud peacock, raising her eyebrows and displaying a sense of satisfaction while speaking.

While her words were meant to torment Lin Cuifen, she didn’t care about her relationship with the original host’s grandparents. If they get along, great; if not, they can go their separate ways. There’s nothing significant about it!

"Impossible! They said it was impossible for him to stand up in this lifetime! You’re lying to me! You’re lying!" Lin Cuifen held her head, shaking it frantically.

The light in Su Yijia’s eyes suddenly grew dark. "Do you know that Su Xinyue and the three scoundrels from the Qin family deliberately conspired against me?"

This part wasn’t mentioned in the book, so she hadn’t thought about it until now. She had assumed that the book had a green light all the way for Su Xinyue, which was why the biased Su couple didn’t care about the original host, who had been married off, even during Chinese New Year and beyond. They had no interest whatsoever.

"Yes, I did it on purpose! I wanted Lin Baozhu’s daughter to live her whole life in misery and torment!" Lin Cuifen chuckled with a sinister smile. "Do you know why I wouldn’t let you get married these past few years, even if others offered generous dowries? Those people are just ordinary, and how could I allow Lin Baozhu’s daughter to live like a normal person? If you insisted on getting married, I would make sure to find a genuine hell for you."

"But it’s a pity that your so-called hell is right here at home now, and even dare not to breathe in front of me," Su Yijia taunted with a raised eyebrow. However, she quickly changed the subject, sounding more serious. "But I’m curious, why do you hate my mother so much?"
