Chapter 3 – Bam! Starting out as a mother. How exciting! (3)

When her thoughts were organized, Shu Yan sat back up and saw a document sitting next to her. On top of it was an empty pill bottle. She picked up the bottle and sighed.

“What a silly woman. How is this scum of a man worth you killing yourself over?”

As soon as she finished saying that, the world turned dark in front of, and she almost fell to the ground. Feeling desperate, she almost wanted to commit suicide so it’d all be over.

As she clutched her chest, Shu Yan’s look was fierce, “He was a scum. Other than being a wife, you are also a daughter and a mother. Killing yourself over a scum with no regards to the parents who birthed you and your young pair of children, and you still think you are in the right?”

The sense of desperation dissipated slowly, only to be replaced by a sense of unreconciled feeling.

“Don’t worry. I won’t let the scum man and woman off easily. Now that I am using your body, I promise I will take care of your parents and your children.”

As soon as she said that, a burden was lifted off of her body. Shu Yan breathed a few times. She didn’t think one sentence from her would trigger whatever remained of the original owner. Had she not responded fast enough, she just might be affected enough to have committed suicide as well.

Of course, she would be true to her words on whatever she had promised the original owner. She had no idea why she was brought here, but now that she has someone else’s body and memories, she would live with the consequences of this body.

Shu Yan organized her thoughts again and learned that the year was 1992, and the world was more or less on par of her own 1992. Certain countries and some local locations were different, but the bulk of them were the same. That was a good thing for her. The nineties were the golden time for businesses. She trusted that with her knowledge of the future, she wouldn’t do too poorly.

The original owner was born in 1967 and was 25 currently, five years younger than Shu Yan, but she was already a mother of two. Her older daughter was 7 years old and about to start grade school, and her younger one was already 3.

That could be a little tricky for Shu Yan, who was still single at 30 in her previous life. Bam! Starting out as a mother. How exciting!

She spent a little time to regroup before she processed more of her memories. The original owner graduated after three years of grade school to help out at home and take care of her young brother. But that was the norm for most girls in this era. At least she could read a few words, her older sister had never step foot in a school.

Both  her older brother along with her younger brother had graduated from junior high school. All in all, boys were valued more than girls. Her older sister was married off so her Third Brother could get married. She was married off so her younger brother, who was 2 years younger than her, could get himself a wife. It wasn’t that much different than selling their daughters.

Translator’s Notes:

I want to clarify about “third brother”. Back in those days, it’s customary to count all the kids of the generation together. So “third brother” wasn’t her third brother, but the third boy in that generation.

The author reference “selling of daughters” was not literal, but that when a family marry off their daughter, they will receive a dowry. And the dowry (analogous to payment of their daughter) was used by the girl’s brothers as dowry so they can get themselves a wife. Hope that makes sense. ????
