Hua Yuanshi felt like she was floating. She could feel someone touching her, and she held onto voices calling her.
She opened her eyes and saw a very strange sight. Two dirty, grimy children were staring at her with tears running down their faces. She wanted to speak, but no sound came out. She heard one of them say, "Look, Hua Ming, she has opened her eyes."
"Aunty Yue, Sister Yuanshi has opened her eyes."
She tried to ask who Sister Yue was, but she couldn't. A blurry figure walked towards her, screaming, but the voices faded slowly as she lost consciousness again.
Later, she felt herself lying on something scraggly. Rolling onto her side, she saw the two doe eyed dirty children watching her again. She sat up suddenly, yelling as she felt a sharp pain all over her body and looked around. She heard one of the kids say "sister, are you okay?" which she ignaored as the whole place seemed strange. She was in a rickety shack made of wooden scraps, lying on a bed of straw. The children were dressed in rags. The last thing she remembered was some bastard hitting her with a car when she clocked out of work. How the hell did she get here?
She stood and demanded pointing at the kids, "Who are you people? How did I get here? Why am I not in the hospital?"
One of the children responded, "Sister Yuanshi, what do you mean? Can't you remember Ergu and I ? We're your siblings."
"What siblings? I don't have any siblings. Were you all kidnapped too?" She felt like she was going crazy.
The little boy, Ergu, burst into tears and ran out screaming, "Aunt Yue! Sister Yuanshi has gone mad!"
Then a plump garrish woman called Aunt Yue walked into the shack with her hand placed on her hips. "You lazy brat, is this another act from you? Your siblings have watched over you the whole time. Why are you acting like you don't know them? I can't believe this. " She said. Flailing her arms around she continued with a frown "After trying to sell off your siblings to pay for your wedding with that Li Ming, you don't even feel any remorse. Do you want to run away with that useless man again?"
Upon hearing her words, memories that did not belong to her rushed into Hua Yuanshi's mind. This girl had abandoned her siblings and tried to run away with a man who was already married. The man's domineering wife had found her and beaten her half to death. But what did that have to do with her?
Suddenly, fear moved through her. Surely she hadn't transmigrated, right? Of course not. In all the novels, the female lead transmigrated into the young miss of some family, or the most talented cultivator in centuries. There was no way she had transmigrated into the body of a beggar.
"Can someone get me a mirror? Where's a mirror?" she demanded.
Aunty Yue responded, "I think they might have damaged your brain when you got beaten."
"Can you just shut up!" Hua Yuanshi screamed in frustration. Aunt Yue responded before walking out of the shack km in anger "you better watch your mouth or I'll beat you worse than. Li ming's wife did"
The little girl in the corner said, "We don't have a mirror."
She spotted a clay pot filled with water and ran to it. Looking into the blurry reflection, she saw a pretty girl dressed in rags. Surely, this couldn't be her. She cautiously looked a second time and fainted..
