The Stepmother Is Reborn but Won't Turn Over a New Leaf. She's Done Raising Those Four Kids

[Alternate setting + family life + building wealth + wicked stepmother who does not reform]

[Reborn to torment every ungrateful wretch + never forgiving]

In her previous life, Jiang Shihao worked herself to the bone raising four children for a scumbag. Once he had achieved fame and success, he treated her as an obstacle. Her innocent parents were dragged into it and lost their lives, while she herself endured brutal torture and was beaten to death. Even after death, people continued to scheme against her.

Reborn, she has no intention of being a kind and merciful stepmother. She is a wicked stepmother with a heart as venomous as a snake, and she will make sure those ungrateful brats pay, while giving the scumbag a brutal comeuppance.

The eldest is devoted to his studies and schemes for a career in government.

She cuts off his path to the imperial examinations and sends him to work as an apprentice, where he can learn what it's like to be at the bottom.

The second gets pregnant before marriage.

She waves her hand grandly. Have the baby! Don't even think about marrying into a rich family this time.

The third and fourth are young, but wicked at heart.

She lays down the law with a beating every day.

Spare the rod and spoil the child. I'll make sure you grow up useless!

The scumbag has gotten close to a commandery princess, so he's not easy to deal with.

She sets her sights on the steward of Prince Wu'an's household, calling him brother first, then sister, and finally, her husband.

Who could have guessed that something was wrong on the day of the wedding? What steward's wedding comes with such a lavish spectacle?

A ten-mile wedding procession, with golden bricks paving the way.

She rips off her veil and tries to run, but someone sweeps her into his arms and holds her tight. "A night of love is worth a thousand gold pieces, my darling. Where do you think you're going?"
