Su Meiniang felt that her life was like a tea table, filled with cups of misfortune.
Even the rare opportunity she had to travel to another world ended with her face hitting the ground first!
Now, it had been three years since Su Meiniang had crossed over to this unknown time and space.
Three years ago, the former Chieftain of Chaoyang Village had just passed away. Several candidates were fiercely competing in front of the old Chieftain's coffin, on the verge of resorting to violence. At that moment, Su Meiniang descended from the sky like Halley's Comet crashing into Earth, landing with a loud "thud" right in front of everyone.
"Chieftain, you were like a celestial being descending to earth, so valiant and graceful that no one could rival you!"
Whenever the past was mentioned, Su Meiniang's personal maid, Meizi, would always clench her fists, her eyes sparkling with admiration as she pretended to worship her.
Have you ever seen a celestial being descend to earth only to land face-first and create a large crater in the ground?
Su Meiniang rolled her eyes dramatically at her, clearly unimpressed.
However, it was this grand entrance that made Su Meiniang the biggest dark horse in the competition for Chieftain, allowing her to overwhelmingly become the new leader of Chaoyang Village.
A fierce life needs no explanation, and a difficult crossing requires no justification.
Su Meiniang casually wiped the dust off her face, maintaining a calm demeanor as she confidently took up the mantle of leadership for Chaoyang Village. In front of all those who revered her like a celestial being, she vowed earnestly to carry on the great cause of helping the poor by robbing the rich in Chaoyang Village.
But as it turned out, this vow would ultimately remain nothing more than empty words.
Su Meiniang had no martial arts skills and lacked business acumen. Heaven had given her a chance to traverse time, but forgot to provide her with a survival kit. In the face of such reality, the only outcome was two words—trouble!
Fortunately, Su Meiniang was cheerful, generous, and maintained an optimistic attitude.
Even without martial arts skills, she led the charge in every endeavor; although she didn’t understand the ways of business, she steadfastly adhered to the central idea of aiding the poor.
Within three years, Su Meiniang had successfully turned the once-feared Chaoyang Village into a chaotic mess, leaving it destitute.
All those who exuded tyrannical power were nothing but paper tigers!
With this realization, the Second-in-Command of Chaoyang Village looked at the empty storeroom, wanting to cry but having no tears left, his face marked with "blood and tears."
What fell from the sky was not necessarily a celestial being; it could also be a god of poverty!
At that moment, the frustrated Second-in-Command was unaware that Su Meiniang was fervently hiding with her brothers in the bushes by the official road.
According to reliable sources, the county magistrate of Qing Yao County, who had completed his term and was returning home to retire, would pass by with the wealth he had amassed over the years. It was said that his convoy carrying gold and jewels consisted of five or six carriages!
Thus, Su Meiniang decisively decided that this batch of treasure should be taken from the people and used for the people!
Without hesitation, she led her brothers to stake out their position.
“They're coming, Boss! They’re coming—” The lookout Li Jia exclaimed excitedly to Su Meiniang while wiping sweat from his forehead, his voice brimming with barely contained excitement.
“Brothers, let’s do this!” Su Meiniang exclaimed. Without a moment's hesitation, she grabbed the short knife in her hand, bent at the waist, and charged forward like an arrow released from a bow.
“A strange vehicle has arrived—”
Just as Li Jia finished his sentence, Su Meiniang had already bravely reached the front of the Black Canopied Cart. With her hands on her hips, she shouted at the top of her lungs, “This tree was planted by me, this road was opened by me. If you want to pass through here, leave your toll! Corrupt Official, if you don’t pay up, you’ll pay with your life!”
Damn… Did she really need to say all that? Su Meiniang shot a fierce glare at Li Jia, who was cowering at the back with his head down, wondering how she was supposed to handle this situation now.
“We don’t have money, but we do have a person. Miss, would you like him?”
With a swift motion, the curtain of the cart was drawn aside, revealing a pair of enchanting Peach Blossom Eyes. A man with an alluring presence appeared before her, reminiscent of a demon.
