[Period + Reborn + Everyday family squabbles + face-slapping the worst troublemakers + feel-good story]
Granny Su is reborn, returning to New Year’s Eve in 1979!
In her previous life, she gave everything to her family but never enjoyed a single day of comfort.
Bound by the belief that sons mattered more than daughters, she treated her sons like royalty, buying them houses, arranging their marriages, and even sending them abroad, while neglecting the daughter who was most devoted to her.
As Granny Su lay dying, her four sons and their wives ignored her, fighting tooth and nail over the family property!
Her eldest daughter-in-law even drove Lin Qinghua, the only one who had cared for her while she was sick, out of the house, leaving her to freeze to death in the snowstorm!
The heartache she felt in her final moments brought her back to life, burdened with regret.
This time, she’ll tear off the mask of the “virtuous wife,” protect her daughter with her life, and make her unfilial sons, awful daughters-in-law, rotten in-laws, and meddlesome relatives pay dearly!

Seeing my daughter cowering before me, her hands covered in chilblains, yet being forced to slaughter twenty chickens, fills me with rage. I cast off my former cowardice, stand up for her, lash out at my biased mother-in-law, and send my domineering sons out to work!
This time, I won’t just make sure my daughter can hold her head high and never suffer another injustice. I’ll also change my children’s tragic fates.
I’ll set those spoiled, ungrateful sons straight once and for all, and teach them what responsibility and filial piety mean!
In my previous life, I gave those unfilial sons everything, but they never cared for me.
This time, my sons, daughters-in-law, and in-laws want to live off me? No way! I’ll earn my own money and spend it myself!
As I take charge and set my family straight, those unfilial sons actually become dutiful.
Watch me go all out: take on the worst troublemakers, set my family straight, protect my daughter, and build a thriving business. In that era, I’ll live a life unlike any other!
I think it's pretty good-looking, and I'm not aggrieved at all.
