Restarting in 1959: I Fattened My Wife Up During the Famine

[Period setting + rebirth + punishing scumbags + doting on his wife + raising children + turning his life around] Reborn on the day his wife and daughter died, this utterly despicable thug finally came to his senses! In the bitter winter of 1959, Chen Jiandong had just gotten out of prison. Distracted by a pheasant, he allowed a gang of hooligans to assault his wife, He Dongmei. Only when he opened the door did he see it: His wife’s lifeless body lay on the kang. Beneath the bed, his daughter’s spirit curled up in death... In his previous life, he was a wretch whom everyone despised, drinking and gambling, abusing his wife and daughter, and ultimately causing their deaths. All that remained for him was a lifetime of regret. When he opened his eyes again, he was reborn on the night before the tragedy. Looking at his skeletal wife and daughter in their ramshackle home, and seeing his daughter wolf down a bowl of pig-feed gruel, Chen Jiandong slapped himself hard across the face! This time, he would take up a woodcutter’s axe and hunt pheasants in the mountains, swing a shovel and fight the local tyrants, and defy fate to change his life! Facing the villagers’ cold stares and the threat of famine, he made a vow in the snow, his eyes red: “Dongmei, Xiaoyu, this time I’ll make sure you have meat at every meal, the warmest coats, and the most enviable lives!”
