The 1980s Stepmom Comparison-Group Awakens

[A lovely, sweet-voiced young actress × a handsome doctor who seems gentle and refined but is actually stubbornly rebellious]

[Period piece + devoted to each other + sweet romance]

In a dream, Tong Zhen learned that she was a supporting character in a novel. The heroine was a wonderful stepmother who could host guests and cook up a feast, while Tong Zhen was a lazy, greedy, wicked stepmother who abused the children and disrespected her mother-in-law.

The heroine had a happy family, a successful career, a loving husband, and devoted stepchildren.

Tong Zhen’s family was falling apart, her career was a mess, her husband was cheating on her, and her stepchildren did nothing but beat and curse her.

In the dream, Tong Zhen saw the novel describe her as the heroine’s foil and woke up furious.

Being a stepmother was hard enough. Being the foil to a good stepmother was even worse.

Tong Zhen came to her senses and realized how absurd it was to make a scene at home, insisting on marrying her older cousin’s ex-husband, a man who had already been married once.

Once she was clearheaded, she firmly turned down the Zhang family when Mother Zhang and her son came to ask for her hand.

Mother Zhang, who had been eagerly waiting for Tong Zhen to marry in and become her servant, was stunned. Zhang Zhonghua, who had long coveted Tong Zhen, was dumbfounded.

Only the Tong family rejoiced, happy that their daughter had finally stopped acting foolishly.

The furious Zhangs cursed Tong Zhen at home, convinced that an actress like her, who put herself on public display, would never find a better match than their family.

But Tong Zhen married a doctor at a provincial capital hospital. His family had practiced medicine for generations, his relatives all lived in the capital, and one of his elders was a renowned physician of traditional Chinese medicine!

Yun Danzhu came to Yushi to visit a classmate. He only meant to stop by briefly, but a young woman whose eyes curved into crescent moons when she smiled captured his heart. He wanted to take the moon home and keep it all to himself.

Years later, watching Tong Zhen shine onstage, Yun Danzhu smiled proudly. The most beautiful moon belonged to him!
