Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1772 The Sun Shines Like Me 1

When Jiang Xinxin regained her memories, she had become a girl named Ma Nianyuan, and just like when she was Qu Xinxin, her parents were never happy.

Ma Nianyuan's mother, Qian Fangping, was a girl from the village. She met Ma Shoushan, her father, because she was admitted to a high school in the city.

Qian Fangping didn't get into university and went to work in a factory after graduating from high school. Ma Shoushan, on the other hand, went to university and, after graduation, got a good job in a department through family connections, becoming a civil servant with a secure job.

Later, she met her high school classmate Qian Fangping by chance, and the two naturally fell in love, which led to the birth of Ma Nianyuan.

Unfortunately, Ma Shoushan's grandparents were both sexist and favored sons over daughters. Ma Shoushan loved his daughter dearly but was powerless to change his parents' mindset. He could only try his best to prevent them from meeting. He lived outside with his wife and daughter for four or five years until he died in an accident, leaving his wife and daughter with a small amount of compensation.

Qian Fangping had a very sincere love for her husband, Ma Shoushan, but she was incompetent and could not maintain the lifestyle she had when her husband was alive. So she set her sights on Nie Chengyuan, her childhood friend from the village who had become wealthy, and became his mistress, thus destroying the relationship between Nie Chengyuan and his wife, Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun is someone who cannot tolerate any flaws. When she valued Nie Chengyuan, she insisted on marrying him despite the opposition of her entire family. When their relationship broke down, she directly filed for divorce. She did not harbor any illusions about their past relationship, nor did she expect a prodigal son to return to his former love.

When Qian Fangping saw that her daughter had woken up, she quickly came over and touched her forehead. She couldn't feel anything for the time being, so she simply brought over the warm water that had been prepared and helped Ma Nianyuan drink most of the cup. She then put a thermometer under Ma Nianyuan's tongue.

Qian Fangping felt a pang of sadness when she thought about what happened before Ma Nianyuan got sick, but she also saw this as an opportunity. So she sighed and said, "I know there are rumors at your school that I became someone's mistress and that you are not innocent either. It's understandable that you're angry. I have nothing to say about this."

"But Yuanyuan, I know very well what kind of person your mother is!"

"I've always been someone who avoids difficult tasks and only cares about the easy ones. Besides being good-looking and good at reading people's faces, I have nothing else to offer. If your father were still alive, do you think I would have designs on other people or be interested in anyone else?"

Qian Fangping sighed again, thinking of her deceased husband, and her mood became even more depressed, but she still had to say what she had to say: "Yuanyuan, your mother is not capable of supporting this family. When you were young, you didn't know how many people outside coveted us, mother and daughter. Whether it was your grandparents or your maternal grandparents, they all only wanted to take money from us, an orphan and a widow, and would not help us at all. So I could only take this opportunity to get close to Nie Chengyuan."

"Yuanyuan, don't worry. I only have your father in my heart. I never thought about marrying Nie Chengyuan because I know very well what kind of person he is."

"He's even worse than me! At least I have some self-awareness, but Nie Chengyuan would never have succeeded if it weren't for Jiang Yun!"

Now that she was behind Nie Chengyuan's back, Qian Fangping wanted to tell him everything, so she didn't hide her contempt for Nie Chengyuan at all.

Ma Nianyuan understood. Well, Qian Fangping was another Lin Qinshuang. Both of them were trying to plan the most stable and brightest future for themselves and their children within their capabilities.

Qian Fangping recalled the gossip Ma Nianyuan had endured at school because of her, and now this illness, and felt extremely sorry for her. She felt that things couldn't just end like this. While the thermometer under Ma Nianyuan's tongue was still closed, she simply called Nie Chengyuan and tearfully complained, naturally getting several hundred thousand yuan from him, as well as considerable gifts.

After doing all this, Qian Fangping turned around and took the thermometer from under Ma Nianyuan's tongue. Only after confirming that her daughter's fever had subsided did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Qian Fangping stroked Ma Nianyuan's temples and said softly, "Yuanyuan, I know you've suffered a lot of injustice and hurt this time, and I'm truly sorry. But my daughter and I are now bound to Nie Chengyuan, and you won't be an adult for another two years. We still need Nie Chengyuan, so Yuanyuan, how about I transfer you to another school?"

Ma Nianyuan nodded directly. The final exams are next week, and her first year of high school will be over after that. Changing schools isn't a bad thing. "Mom, since the final exams are next week anyway, I won't go to school. I can just take the exams directly."

Qian Fangping was still a little hesitant, after all, academic studies were very important, and Ma Nianyuan was not the kind of person who couldn't concentrate on studying, so she paid close attention to her daily studies.

However, she also knew that Ma Nianyuan had been greatly affected this time, and since she could quickly come to her senses, she didn't ask for more. So she simply agreed and turned around to politely ask the homeroom teacher for leave.

In the Yangtze River Delta region, academic performance is always taken very seriously. Ma Nianyuan's bullying at school was dealt with promptly. After the final exams, Ma Nianyuan disappeared. Even her report card was sent home by her homeroom teacher. The classmates seemed to suddenly realize something, and the atmosphere changed.

After switching to the new school, Ma Nianyuan studied even harder. Taking advantage of Ma Nianyuan's academic progress, Qian Fangping naturally extracted a lot of money and gifts from Nie Chengyuan.

Qian Fangping and Lin Qinshuang adopted the same approach, both following the path of a weak and helpless true love. Nie Chengyuan and Sheng Hong were similar in personality, especially in their marital experiences, both following the script of a poor man marrying a rich and beautiful woman. So, just as Lin Qinshuang succeeded, so did Qian Fangping.

But Qian Fangping was luckier than Lin Qinshuang because she grew up in a peaceful era where everyone was equal. Even though the local customs made it difficult for her, a young woman raising her daughter alone, she watched her daughter Ma Nianyuan study harder and harder and her grades improved. She gradually began to think about breaking away from Nie Chengyuan.

Ma Nianyuan keenly sensed Qian Fangping's plan, so she, who had originally wanted to take a shortcut and study business, now felt that she absolutely could not choose a major in college that would be related to Nie Chengyuan's business. She had no choice but to go back to her old ways and apply for medical school.

However, Ma Nianyuan applied for Traditional Chinese Medicine this time, rather than Western medicine clinical practice.
