Synopsis

[Short drama: I Became a Stepmother in the 1980s] The 1980s, stepmother, raising kids, everyday life, love after marriage The moment she opens her eyes, Si Nian finds herself in a period novel as a fake heiress. She’s sent back to the countryside to marry a twice-married man in place of the real heiress, and has to raise a whole brood of children. To make matters worse, she runs into the real heiress, who has been reborn. In her previous life, Lin Sisi was pressured by her family into marrying a cold, hard-hearted older man who had already been married twice. He never gave her the time of day. Meanwhile, Si Nian, who had stolen her heiress identity, married an army officer and lived a sweet, happy life. Reborn, Lin Sisi is determined to steal Si Nian’s military officer husband and make her suffer as she did. But the real heiress doesn’t get her wish. Instead, Si Nian helps the older man build a vast fortune, lives in splendor, and raises several children who make something of themselves. * When she’s sent to meet the older man, Si Nian isn’t fazed at all: He’s the sort of eccentric who’d rather raise someone else’s children than have any of his own. Everyone else steers clear of him, but Si Nian’s eyes light up. “First, motherhood is wonderful. Second, I’ll make a great stepmother.” Years later, the real heiress has dealt with her army officer husband’s illegitimate child, only to have her family fortune snatched away. She’s utterly miserable. She thinks that even at her worst, she must be better off than Si Nian, who has no children of her own and has to raise someone else’s kids. How is that any different from being a nanny? But one day, the wealthy, stern, intimidating older man gently helps pregnant Si Nian out of his car, cherishing her like she’s the most precious thing in the world. Angrily, Si Nian yanks his hair. “You said you didn’t want children!” The older man tenderly kisses her hand. “Honey, I was wrong. Let’s have another one next time.”

It's good to watch, but it's a little lacking [I'm about to cry]. I want to see the plot behind it. It is worth recommending this book [Flowing Kiss][Flowing Kiss][Flowing Kiss], and I have been following this book now

As a bookworm for more than ten years, I realized that it is really good-looking, I really like the male protagonist, so sweet, lustful, sultry and doting on the female protagonist. The heroine is also beautiful. I finished reading it in one sitting. Why is it no longer available? ! ! [Face-covering][Face-covering][Face-covering][Face-covering] Let's update!

The content of this book is substantial, and the heroine is not the kind of unreasonable person. She looks very energetic, but she also knows how to teach bad children. Anyway, in one word, great, great! I just wish there were more Come on, author! Work hard! Let's watch more every day, thank you.

It's really good-looking. I really like the heroine. Her character is neither very strong nor very weak. Overall, I'm still very satisfied with the plot. The only thing I'm not satisfied with is that it's too slow.

Good looking! There are too many great things, but this old man Zhou Yueshen is really awesome. The fatal flaw is that it is serialized and not enough to watch. [Cry]

It's absolutely awesome. This book has been written clearly by the author. It's really good-looking, and the heroine is not that silly and sweet. She just yells at people until she takes off. It's so good-looking that I can't recommend it without saying anything.

It's really good. I rarely comment on novels. This is the most beautiful novel I have ever read. This is the only book that I can read without skipping a chapter. I really recommend it to you sisters. The plot is compact and novel. It was written in my heart. I like it very much. Great support for the author. I look forward to the update.

Very good subject matter. Emotions are clean. Although she is a stepmother, the child does not belong to the male protagonist, but to his sister. The male protagonist is very responsible and very good in real life. Women really don't have to have children👶🏻. As long as you have enough money to raise more children, that's fine too [laughs][laughs]
