Iâm Downstairs (1)
Item Name: Plot Correction Card
Item Description: This item gives you one chance to modify the plot.
Note: You can only modify the side stories, not the main plot.
Jiang Xiaoman asked, âCan I change it to whatever I want?â
âTheoretically, yesâ¦â The systemâs voice unconsciously weakened, but it still dutifully explained, âBut the changes you make must follow a few important rules. One, it can only be used on supporting characters. Two, the revised plot cannot be related to the main plot. Three, the modified variables cannot exist beyond the world setting. Fourâ¦â
âThat means I canât do this and I canât do that, right? This doesnât seem to be of any use.â Jiang Xiaoman pouted, âI knew what you gave me would definitely not be something good.â
The system did not dare to speak.
After thinking about it for a while, the system whispered again, âActually, Host⦠the main plot has already been such a mess. Even if you modify something, it probably will not affect it too much.â
It meant that the rules for modification had been quietly relaxed.
For this behavior of secretly leaking information, the system repented for a few seconds, then said that it could also give Jiang Xiaoman permission to view the script and let her watch the changes.
Jiang Xiaoman opened the script and looked.
The first was Grandma and Uncle⦠Oh no, these two didnât need any changes. Grandma was living a good life, and the rest of her life would be peaceful and happy. Uncle was also having it good. There was no fear for his life, and he wasnât getting into fights anymore.
Jiang Xiaoman glanced through the Wen family, and found that they all lived happily with the heroine.
It had nothing to do with her, and there was no need to change it.
Jiang Xiaoman suddenly realized that, except for herself, everyone else was going to have a happy ending?
Was she the most pitiful one?
But she didnât seem to lack anything now, and she didnât seem to be miserable.
So the most pitiful person was..
âHost, there are people who have it worse than you.â The system said, âThereâs still your childhood friend Yu Qingshi.â
Jiang Xiaoman frowned, âWhat happened to him?â
âHe was kidnapped at the age of three, his parents died at the age of five and his family was destroyed at the age of eight. At the age of ten, he was adopted by your parents and the age of thirteen, he was tortured by Liang Siyu until his legs were disabled. At the age of fifteen, he got caught by you and got bullied, and at the age of sixteenâ â
âWait a minute.â Jiang Xiaoman interrupted it, almost crying, âIsnât this too miserable? Why is he so miserable?â
ââ¦this, the villain must have a tragic childhood.â
âBut heâs not a villain at all.â
âYeah, it was changed because of you.â
Jiang Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief.
She was originally the one who suffered the most, but now with Yu Qingshi as a comparison, she no longer felt that miserable. Instead, she felt that she had been too happy.
Fortunately, none of the things mentioned above happened, none of those shocking things came true. Oh wait, the kidnapping at the age of three did, but none of the others happened.
Very nice.
Jiang Xiaoman was very angry. After thinking about it, she still felt that there was something wrong with the person who wrote this story!
Yu Qingshi was so cute, who would bully him?
She would beat whoever bullied him in the future!
Jiang Xiaoman didnât use the Plot Correction Card to modify anything. Everything was fine for now, so she didnât need to change at the moment. She should keep it for Yu Qingshi. Maybe one day his legs might really be disabled, then she would be able to save him.
After solving a major event, Jiang Xiaoman finally felt relieved. She went to bed and fell asleep, and spent an ordinary and peaceful day.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
On the final exam, Jiang Xiaoman and Yu Qingshi tied for the first place. Jiang Xiumei was very happy and made them a first-place celebration dumpling.
The dumplings were filled with various fillings, including seafood, mushrooms, pork, dried chili peppers and some contained copper coins. Whoever ate the dumplings containing copper coins would be blessed with fortune.
Since there were two children, Jiang Xiumei was afraid that they would not be able to eat the first-place celebration dumplings containing copper coins, so she deliberately made several more to increase their probability of winning the lottery.
Who would have thought that that little ghost Jiang Xiaoman had already been too used to eating the food she made since she was small? She could see what was inside through the layer of dumpling wrappers.
You could vaguely see the red on the dumplings containing chili peppers through the transparent skin. Jiang Xiaoman caught it and didnât want to eat it. She tilted her head and thought for a bit, then put it into Yu Qingshiâs bowl while saying gently, âQuickly eat, it wonât be tasty anymore when itâs coldâ.
âUh-huh!â Yu Qingshi was very happy, although he also felt a bit uneasy because she was treating him so well. He picked it up and bit into it.
Ahh, itâs so spicyâ
So spicy, so spicy.
Yu Qingshiâs face and ears turned all red, and he felt like he could spit fire at any moment.
He didnât dare to lose his temper and forced himself to drink a bowl of soup to suppress the burning pain.
But soon there was another dumpling in his bowl that Jiang Xiaoman put inside for him, âQuickly eat it, itâs delicious.â
Yu Qingshiâs face and ears were still very red from the spiciness, as well as from the embarrassment from being played by Jiang Xiaoman.
Why did she suddenly give him so much food, reallyâ¦
Yu Qingshi buried his head on the food and bit again.
Ah, so spicy!!
It was pepper stuffing again.
Yu Qingshiâs red face faintly turned blue, but he endured it.
It was rare for Jiang Xiaoman to be so gentle.
Then, Jiang Xiaoman picked another one for him.
â¦
⦠it was pepper stuffing again, wasnât?
Yu Qingshi wanted to refuse, but he still ate it in the end. This time he didnât dare to bite it and wanted to swallow it whole. Who wouldâve thought that just as he was about to swallow it, Jiang Xiaoman snapped his mouth open and said anxiously, âQuick, spit it out! This is the real champion dumpling, it has copper coins inside!â
â!!!â
Yu Qingshiâs face flushed red, and he was dying of anger.
This darned Jiang Xiaoman!!!
She already knew what stuffing was inside of them!!
Jiang Xiumei couldnât stand watching it any longer and glared at her, âDonât end up committing a sin!â
Fortunately he didnât really swallow it, so it ended with just a scare.
Jiang Xiaoman felt very guilty. She patted his back and poured water for him to drink. Yu Qingshi didnât take the matter into heart and just drank water as much as he could.
After the closing ceremony was winter vacation.
Jiang Xiumei was a very traditional and old-fashioned person. When it came to this kind of thing, all kinds of etiquette and work that needed to be done during the celebration were indispensable.
She figured it was time to go home. However, where Jiang Xiaoman should stay was the question.
