I Became the Mother of the Ex-Husband in a Period Novel, and Awakened

[Raising kids in the 1970s + Transmigrate into a book + Pocket dimension + A woman who transmigrated into a book vs. a woman who was reborn]

(The heroine’s child is ten, clever, and scheming. The reborn woman is seven. The heroine’s husband is alive, but doesn’t appear until the middle or later chapters.)

It took Song Zhiyi thirty years to discover that she was a character in a novel set in a bygone era.

Worse, she was the infamous wicked mother-in-law who made readers’ blood boil!

In the novel, she beat and berated the heroine, stole her job, falsely accused her of cheating on her husband, and seized her dowry, leaving her with nothing. In the end, she starved to death in the countryside.

And Song Zhiyi’s son was the one who actually cheated on his wife. He looked down on those beneath him and fawned on those above, was fickle in love, and even beat his wife!

The novel’s main plot followed Song Zhiyi’s daughter-in-law, who was reborn in the second year of her marriage. She gained a pocket dimension, picked up a commander, and not only turned Song Zhiyi’s son into her ex-husband, but also sent both him and his mother to prison.

Song Zhiyi pressed her temples and took a while to recover. Then she looked down at her ten-year-old son, who was holding her up with a worried expression, grabbed a broom, and smacked him on the bottom.

Song Zhiyi didn’t expect the reborn heroine to spare her and her son. But she wasn’t a pushover, either. She’d deal with whatever came her way… Wait, wasn’t this pocket-dimension bracelet her dowry?
