Chapter 417: The cannon fodder whose fate was changed by the heroine, she concentrates on her career
Tuanzi nodded obediently and replied, "Okay, Master. Please wait a moment. In three seconds, the host will leave the client's body. Three... two... one..."
As Tuanzi's two little hands moved rapidly in the air, a mysterious light suddenly lit up, illuminating the entire space with brilliant light.
A beautiful woman, reclining in the ornate carriage, suddenly jolted, as if struck by some immense force. Then, her tightly closed eyes slowly opened again, but this time, the expression within them was completely different—she had transformed back into the Jiang Lan everyone knew!
"Stop!" Jiang Lan's clear, decisive voice echoed, like a thunderbolt piercing the sky. With her command, the team, which had been steadily moving forward, came to an abrupt halt. The shafts of the vehicles scraped against the ground with a sharp sound, drawing the attention of the surrounding crowd.
In full view of the crowd, Jiang Lan gracefully got off the carriage, walked lightly with lotus steps, and walked straight towards two ugly and dirty beggars not far ahead.
When she got closer, she bent down slightly, looked at the two people in front of her with gentle and kind eyes, and said softly: "Do you want to go back to Jiang Mansion with me? Once you get there, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will never go hungry." Jiang Lan's tone was gentle and pleasant, like a clear spring flowing into the hearts of everyone present.
At this point, aside from the two beggars involved, the rest of the onlookers couldn't help but praise the newly appointed county lord, admiring her kindness and benevolence. However, faced with Jiang Lan's tempting invitation, the two beggars, Meng Fan and Jiang Nian, seemed somewhat hesitant.
However, before they could respond, as soon as Jiang Lan finished speaking, the Jiang family members who had been waiting for a long time immediately rushed forward, picked up Meng Fan and Jiang Nian without saying a word, and forcibly took them towards the Jiang Mansion.
As for what fate awaited Meng Fan and Jiang Nian? Perhaps endless torture and suffering; or perhaps Jiang Lan simply wanted to give them a quick and easy ending with death...

This time, Su Lan was determined to enter his own personal space and practice intensively for a full half month, with the purpose of recuperating his mental strength and somewhat weak soul that had been greatly depleted due to the time travel.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. During this period, Su Lan immersed himself in cultivation without distraction, constantly absorbing the abundant spiritual energy in the space and working hard to repair his injuries.
That day, Su Lan, who was still cultivating, heard a message from Tuanzi: "Host, I found an awesome quest! I think you'll be particularly interested in it, so I couldn't help but take it on for you~"
After saying this, Tuanzi deliberately transformed into a cute kitten, jumped in front of Su Lan, and rubbed her fair and tender cheek affectionately with his little head.
However, only Tuanzi knew that this so-called suitable mission was entirely due to its carelessness. Now that things have come to this, it has no choice but to bite the bullet and let its host complete this mission. I hope Su Lan won't blame it when the time comes...
Su Lan did not expose the guilty Tuanzi, but cooperated and accepted the memory:
The mission world this time is a parallel time and space in the 1980s, and the heroine Su Hongyan's golden finger is actually the Moon Stone that can reset time.
Flashback to a year after the original owner's mother passed away, her father, Su Yong, married his stepmother, Luo Juanzi, who brought her daughter with her. Although the original owner's grandmother's full protection spared her from excessive harassment and torture from her stepmother, the long-awaited fatherly love never arrived.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the two daughters have grown up. Father Su is deeply concerned about their future. He specially consults a matchmaker to arrange two marriages for them. One of the men is a poor but studious scholar; the other is the director of a textile factory, who is much more financially well-off.
However, as a stepmother, Luo Juanzi naturally didn't want to see her biological daughter suffer. So, she pulled out all the stops, tearfully recounting the hardships of raising her daughter alone before Su's father. Ultimately, she persuaded him to appoint Su Hongyan as the textile factory director.
Finally, the big day arrived. The news that the two daughters of the Su family were getting married at the same time spread throughout the village, becoming the talk of the town. On the wedding day, the textile factory director, Feng Xiaohai, was lavish with an incredibly generous betrothal gift, drawing admiration from the crowd.
Afterwards, he personally rode his iconic 28-inch bicycle and joyfully took his beautiful bride, Su Hongyan, home. Along the way, the sound of gongs and drums and the blast of firecrackers filled the air, creating a truly lively atmosphere.
The original owner followed the poor boy Liu Deyuan home, holding the red porcelain basin given by her father. There was no wedding banquet, but they just kowtowed to their mother-in-law, and the two were considered husband and wife.
Such an obvious contrast greatly satisfied Su Hongyan's competitive spirit, but after she got married, before she could start to enjoy her life, something happened at her husband's factory and he didn't come home every day.
Then look at the original owner who resolutely married the poor boy. She lived a diligent and down-to-earth life every day. Not only did she serve her parents-in-law wholeheartedly and caringly, but she also showed great love and affection to her young brother-in-law without any complaints.
In addition, in order to help her husband Liu Deyuan successfully enter university, the original owner worked tirelessly to run around looking for textbooks and various tutoring materials.
Time flew by, and half a year had already passed. However, at this time, the textile factory run by Feng Xiaohai encountered a major crisis. Due to the opening of a large-scale and technologically advanced garment factory in the town, Feng Xiaohai's factory gradually lost market share and was eventually completely replaced.
As business declined, Feng Xiaohai's income from work dwindled. Faced with this situation, Su Hongyan, already proud and arrogant, gradually lost patience with her husband. Finally, one day, while Feng Xiaohai was distracted, she secretly sold the factory, once the heart of the Feng family's hopes, to a foreigner at a rock-bottom price.
When Feng Xiaohai heard the news, he was stunned, as if struck by lightning. He could never have imagined that he was so incompetent that he couldn't even protect the business his father had worked so hard to build. A huge sense of frustration and despair instantly overwhelmed him. After a painful struggle, Feng Xiaohai chose to jump from the high building, ending his young and fragile life.
After selling the factory and receiving the money, Su Hongyan was branded a "lucky woman" and forced to remarry a butcher in town. While her life is manageable now, it's far from perfect.
At the same time, what she never expected was that her stepsister, whom she had always regarded as a thorn in her side, actually turned things around and successfully became the mayor's wife in just five years!
