Chapter 1 My Mom Was a Factory Manager in the 1970s
[System, tell me, what's going on?]
Looking at the dusty walls and the greasy black bedding, Si Yan, who was on vacation at the beach just a moment ago, was quite annoyed.
[Hehe, host, due to a severe shortage of personnel in the Quick Transmigration Bureau's "Mom Team," we had no choice but to transfer you here directly. But don't worry, all mission rewards will be doubled this time.]
The main task this time is to go to various small worlds as a "cannon fodder" mother, leading them to defeat their enemies, achieve a comeback, and reach the pinnacle of life. The mission is successful when the villain's happiness value reaches 100.
See, isn't this the task you're best at?
The system, Xiaoqi, smiled sweetly and gently.
Si Yan rolled her eyes and ignored her. Anyone would be unhappy to be called back to work during their vacation.
Si Yan tapped with one hand to begin receiving the mission storyline.
It is now 1976, and the target of this mission is the original owner's daughter, Lin Youyou.
Lin Youyou is a cannon fodder female supporting character in a sweet and pampered marriage story set in the 1970s.
She didn't even have much screen time in the book; she was written out of the story after she got a job.
She lost her job, her beloved grandmother died of anger, and even her death enhanced the reputation of the female protagonist, Lin Xiaoyu.
Therefore, Lin Youyou's soul was reluctant to return to its place, and due to her overwhelming resentment, the entire small world was extremely unstable.
Therefore, the system urgently transferred Si Yan over, but due to a scheduling error, there are now only four days left until Lin Youyou goes offline.
At this moment, a heated debate broke out between An County and the Lin family.
"Lin Youyou, stop making excuses. You're just jealous of Xiaoyu. You're inferior to Xiaoyu in every way, and now you even dare to push her!"
Lin Jianjun looked at Lin Youyou with disappointment, wondering how his once well-behaved and adorable daughter had grown up to be like this.
She probably inherited that from her mother; she's pretentious and vain.
Hearing Lin Jianjun's words, Lin Youyou curled her lips indifferently.
"Yes, yes, you believe everything they say."
“She’s not your biological daughter, Lin Xiaoyu, yet you’re so protective of her.”
"you"
"You are simply ungrateful. You are becoming more and more lawless because your grandma spoils you."
Seeing Lin Youyou's shameless behavior, Lin Jianjun reprimanded her.
"Then why don't you go and talk to Grandma? See who she sides with."
Lin Youyou didn't care at all; after all, her grandmother only protected her.
"Lin Youyou, you're really getting more and more outrageous, I'm telling you..."
Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore. I need to go tell Grandma that I got the job as a publicity officer at the machinery factory.
Lin Jianjun was interrupted by Lin Youyou before he could finish speaking.
Seeing that things were not going well, Lin Youyou quickly ran away after saying that.
Lin Jianjun was left watching Lin Youyou's retreating figure with a helpless sigh.
When he turned his head and looked at Li Hui and her daughter sitting on the ground, his eyes were immediately filled with guilt.
"Ah Hui, I'm sorry, I've made you suffer."
“Jianjun, it’s nothing for me to suffer, it’s just that Xiaoyu has suffered.”
"Logically speaking, Xiaoyu should have been first in the written test, so she should be able to handle the work in the publicity office. But now she got second place and left. Xiaoyu is really suffering."
Li Hui held Lin Xiaoyu with a sorrowful expression, tears falling like pearls, somewhat reminiscent of Xi Shi shedding tears.
Lin Jianjun usually falls for her tricks, but they don't seem to work today.
“Ah Hui, I told the head of the purchasing department that Xiao Yu can work in the purchasing department. She will be doing office work and it will be just as good as being a publicity officer.”
"Besides, Youyou has loved drawing since she was little, and her job as a propagandist was personally assigned by the head of the propaganda department. Don't worry, no one will say anything."
Upon hearing Lin Jianjun's words, Li Hui's expression froze for a moment. Who cared about that?
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyu, who was sitting on the ground, showed a flash of resentment, but she quickly recovered her weak state.
"Uncle Lin, don't listen to Mom. I'm happy for Sister Youyou that she got into the publicity department. It's just that I'm not as good as her."
"Xiaoyu, you're a good girl. Don't worry, Uncle won't make you suffer."
Lin Xiaoyu nodded obediently after hearing this, but a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes the moment she lowered her head.
It's true that not being related by blood makes a difference. It sounds nice, but everyone knows you and the head of the propaganda department are best friends. Even that idiot Lin Youyou got in. How can it be fair?
However, if Lin Youyou herself is not capable of doing this job, then she can't blame herself for taking the position because she is more capable.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyu smiled silently.
After running out of her house, Lin Youyou suddenly stopped and looked back at the family compound behind her, as if she had thought of something.
Lin Xiaoyu was always inexplicably jealous of him, but how could he not be jealous of her too?
She has her own mother making plans for her, but what about herself?
My biological mother has been gone for six years without even a letter, even though she had promised to take me to live a better life.
Sure enough, this is just a lie.
The biological mother Lin Youyou mentioned, Si Yan, had just come out of the dilapidated rented house.
The original owner of this body and Lin Youyou's father separated when Lin Youyou was 11 years old, which caused a great sensation at the time, since it was rare to hear of people getting divorced in that era.
The original owner of this body was a technician in a machinery factory with a bright future. However, due to her greed, she divorced her husband and ran away to Taipei with someone else, only to end up living such a miserable life. It is unknown whether she regretted abandoning her husband and daughter.
Si Yan realized that Lin Youyou was supposed to be offline in four days in the original storyline. Now that time was of the essence, she couldn't take it slow, so she decided to use some methods.
[Xiao Qi, I want to apply for background optimization. In the original storyline, a factory manager will be arriving at the machinery factory where Lin Jianjun works in the next few days. Please give me that position as well.]
[Received, background generation in progress.]
[You unexpectedly ended up in Hong Kong, and through six years of hard work, you built a successful business. Missing your daughter, you decided to return to China early. In exchange for being closer to her, you donated ten million RMB to the country, securing a position as the manager of a machinery factory, along with the reputation of a patriotic businessman.]
You are now about to board the train back to Anxian County to take over as the director of the Anxian Machinery Factory.
When Si Yan opened her eyes, the scene before her had changed to Taipei's train station, and Si Yan was standing in the square in front of the train station with a small suitcase in her hand.
Upon entering the train station, Si Yan heard the train conductor's announcement and followed the crowd onto the train.
Lin Youyou was unaware that her beloved mother was about to return to An County.
