(Period setting + reborn + revenge on scumbags + doting husband + raising children + stepfather + comeback)
After marrying his second wife, he supported her and her stepson, yet she never let him touch her even once. Zhao Jianzhu returns to the day he was intimate with his second wife and slaps her across the face, telling her to take her stepson and get out.
In the bitter winter of 1959, Shao Ruilian schemed and manipulated Zhao Jianzhu into divorcing his first wife, Lu Xiulan. Only after the divorce did he learn what Shao Ruilian was really like. While Zhao Jiandong was away hunting in the mountains, she let her ex-husband, Li Shengli, rest at their home. Her stepson, Li Jun, had never accepted him as his stepfather either. It was only after Zhao Jianzhu handed over every penny he earned to Shao Ruilian and her son, Li Jun, only to be abandoned by them, that he finally came to his senses.
The people who loved Zhao Jianzhu most were his first wife, Lu Xiulan, and his own daughter, Zhao Xiaojuan.
When he saw Lu Xiulan and Zhao Xiaojuan heading into the mountains alone to hunt for food, Zhao Jianzhu slapped himself hard across the face twice! In this life, he would never let his first wife, Lu Xiulan, and his daughter, Zhao Xiaojuan, suffer again. Facing the hatred of everyone around him, he swore through red-rimmed eyes in the snow:
“Xiulan, Xiaojuan, in this life I’ll give you both a good life. You’ll eat meat at every meal, wear the warmest padded coats, live in the coziest home, and be the happiest women in the world!”
