After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 1: Transmigrated into a Young Widow

"She looks half-dead, spoiling the gentlemen's enjoyment. Thirty coins is already a generous offer. Granny Liu, don't push your luck, or we'll tell everyone about your shameful deeds!"

"Alright, you two can enjoy him tonight. Just don't kill him. I'm going to sell him to a slave trader tomorrow!"

After finishing her sentence, Granny Liu didn't even glance back at the unconscious Su Xiaoxiao. She turned around, closed the door of her woodshed, and swayed away as she left.

The two lewd men looked at the unconscious Su Xiaoxiao on the ground and said, "She's really good-looking, with a nice figure and skin. We've gotten a great deal tonight. How about we come every night from now on, bro?"

"What are you thinking? He's going to be sold to slave traders tomorrow, so let's enjoy ourselves tonight!"

As they talked, the two of them started to unbuckle their belts. "This time it's my turn to go first, okay, bro?"

As Wang Mazi spoke, he rubbed his hands together impatiently and reached out his claws to pounce on Su Xiaoxiao.

"Baby, here I come!"

Wang Mazi's unrestrained laughter reached Su Xiaoxiao's ears. At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao was awakened. No one noticed the strange smile on her lips. Just moments before, she had her eyes closed, but suddenly she reached out and grabbed Wang Mazi's outstretched hand, twisted it hard, and then kicked Wang Mazi directly to the ground.

Before the man with the gap-toothed man could even react, his younger brother, Wang Mazi, had been thrown to the ground by the woman.

He quickly prepared to pull up his pants to help, but Su Xiaoxiao seized the opportunity to grab his waistband, tightened it around his neck, and twisted it hard. She used too much force, and with a snap, his neck broke. His gap-toothed man stared wide-eyed, his neck twisted to one side.

When Wang Mazi saw that his good brother, Big Tooth, was dead, he was so frightened that he ran towards the door of the woodshed, only to find that Granny Liu had locked the door from the outside.

He pounded on the wooden gate in despair, while the woman behind him stared at him with fiery eyes, sending a chill down his spine.

Wang Mazi's neck was also twisted, and his body was piled on top of Da Huoya. Su Xiaoxiao patted the dust off her hands before looking around.

"You want to sleep with me? You don't even know if you're worthy!"

Looking at the piles of firewood around him, it was clear that this was a very dilapidated woodshed, and the original owner's memories instantly flooded into his mind.

She transmigrated. Before transmigrating, she was a special agent who tragically died in a car accident. She then transmigrated to this place and discovered that the original owner's fate was also unfortunate. She became a widow after her wedding and had two children left behind by her husband's ex-wife.

Da Bao is a six-year-old boy, and Xiao Bao is a three-year-old girl.

The original owner constantly beat and scolded the two children, since they weren't her own, and she vented all her frustrations on them.

The pension her husband Liu Xiaozhuang received after his death on the battlefield was all embezzled by her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law even planned to sell her to a slave trader, and before that, she even wanted to give her away to two hooligans from the village.

"What a tragic life," Su Xiaoxiao spat at the two corpses, then glanced at the woodshed door, took a few steps back, and kicked the door hard, sending it flying open.

After receiving the money, Granny Liu simply locked the door and went out to play cards. Su Xiaoxiao barged into the house and took away all the savings her mother-in-law had accumulated over the years, totaling a little over five taels of silver, plus some other valuable jewelry, which amounted to about ten taels of silver.

She then deliberately made a mess of the house, creating the appearance of a home invasion robbery, before leaving.

Taking advantage of the moonlight and the fact that no one was paying attention to her, Su Xiaoxiao returned to her home.

Inside the dilapidated house, Su Xiaoxiao opened the door and found it truly bare, with two children huddled behind the door, trembling with fear.

"Grandma won't sell us, will she?"

"My mother was knocked unconscious by her and they had to carry her away!"

"Don't cry, Xiaobao. Even if Grandma sells us, your brother will protect you." Xiaobao sat sobbing on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), while Dabao wiped her tears. The two children looked frail and leaned against each other.

When Su Xiaoxiao came in, they stared in horror, as if they were looking at a ghost.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't notice her pale face and disheveled hair. The original owner of this body had been poisoned to death by her mother-in-law with expired sleeping potion.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly tidied her hair and clothes that had been torn by the two rascals in the woodshed, then turned to the two children and gave them a bright smile.

"Are you hungry? Mom will make you two a midnight snack."

As soon as the words were spoken, the two little ones screamed "Mommy!" and scattered in all directions throughout the house.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. She had already tied her hair back up. Was she still that scary?

Was the original owner always this scary?

After a long while, Su Xiaoxiao sighed and went to the kitchen alone to find something to eat. She discovered that there was no food stored at home, and they had been surviving on wild vegetables and cornmeal porridge for the past few days.

Now even cornmeal is reduced to a thin layer at the bottom of the jar, not even enough to fill a tooth gap.

"Mother, my sister and I were so hungry that we ate the wild vegetables from the house for dinner. Please don't blame my sister; it was all my idea."

Da Bao walked over, raised his little face, and timidly begged Su Xiaoxiao for mercy.

Looking at Da Bao's innocent face, Su Xiaoxiao wanted to reach out and pat his head, but Da Bao immediately squatted down, hugged his head and said, "Mom, I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again!"

Su Xiaoxiao was taken aback. It turned out that Da Bao thought she raised her hand to hit him.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly withdrew her hand. She wanted to help Da Bao up from the ground, but she was afraid that Da Bao would be wary of her again, so she pretended that nothing had happened and turned around to start a fire.

"It's alright, there's still some cornmeal left. We can make porridge to tide us over for now. Tomorrow, Mom will make you something delicious!"

Da Bao was clearly stunned.

Su Xiaoxiao said that starting a fire was quite unfamiliar to her, so Da Bao quickly came over to help.

The six-year-old boy immediately ran out to find firewood to start a fire, and carried it into the kitchen in a bamboo basket that was a size larger than him.

He was only a head taller than the bamboo basket. Da Bao usually did the cooking and tending the fire. He was such a sensible child. I can't understand why the original owner of this body would make things difficult for him.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't resist touching Da Bao's head any longer, then picked up the bucket and went out to fetch water.

Da Bao stared at Su Xiaoxiao's departing figure, flattered and surprised. "Brother, did Mother pat your head just now?"

Xiao Bao leaned closer and said, "Brother, something's wrong with her!"

"What's wrong?"

"Brother, she didn't yell at anyone today, and she even said she'd cook us a midnight snack. Is she feeding us well today so she's planning to sell us to slave traders tomorrow?"

Just then, Su Xiaoxiao came in from outside carrying a bucket of water. She was puzzled to see the two children staring at her with terrified expressions.
