The Kind Mother-in-Law Who Brought Misfortune (Complete, 629,000 words, with a satisfying ending)
A family saga spanning the generations | Three generations of mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law | Adapted from a true story
Mei Tong was orphaned at eight and sent to the Dai family as a child bride. She helped her mother-in-law raise two younger sisters-in-law, then waited alone for eight years before daring to go to the city in search of her husband.
Her husband, Fu Xun, excelled in his studies and got a job at a factory, steadily rising through the ranks. But as his position rose, so did his temper. Egged on by the woman he was seeing, he coldly forced Mei Tong to divorce him, citing their arranged marriage.
Who knew that karma would strike so quickly? He suddenly suffered a stroke that left him paralyzed on one side. The other woman fled in the blink of an eye, leaving him with a complete mess.
A paralyzed husband, four children still in school, and neighbors waiting to laugh at her misfortune all weighed on Mei Tong’s shoulders.
By day, she hauled ore at the mine and mended the workers’ clothes. At night, she cared for her paralyzed husband and looked after the children. With nothing but her kindness and perseverance, she endured the bitter days until they turned sweet, and kept working until the cold, broken home was warm again.
After all her struggles, Mei Tong finally became a mother-in-law herself, only to meet a difficult daughter-in-law.
Each of her four children faced their own marital troubles, and the family was beset by one crisis after another. She kept enduring, kept holding on, and kept seeing them through.
After half a lifetime of storms, the daughters-in-law who had once clashed with her finally came to their senses. At last, the whole family sat together around one table, sharing a steaming feast in a joyful reunion.
Even the old neighbors who had once waited to laugh at her now looked on with nothing but envy.
