[1980s + Elderly Woman Reborn + Whole Family Turns Their Lives Around + Get Rich + Family Life + Gourmet System + Punishing the Scumbags]
Only after Chen Hongmei froze to death beneath a bridge at eighty did she discover that her whole family had been the miserable foils in a period novel.
The neighbors next door always seemed to have incredible luck. Their grandsons flourished in politics, business, and literature, becoming the envy of everyone.
Meanwhile, her own children suddenly died one after another.
After her children died under mysterious circumstances, she watched her hair turn white as she buried the younger generation.
Her eldest grandson was stabbed to death by thugs, her second grandson was run over by a train, and her granddaughter died in childbirth along with her baby.
Even her cleverest youngest grandson became an evil supervillain, notorious and ultimately left without even a body to bury.
It was all because the neighbors had a luck System!
It turned out they had been siphoning her family's luck to defy fate and change their lives, until the whole family rose to greatness.
Chen Hongmei, reborn with a heart full of resentment, flips the table!
Pah! You still want to siphon my family's luck? Get lost!
The kind old lady who had played the gentle type for decades is done pretending!
She kicks the foils, tears the scumbags apart, and leads her whole family to turn their lives around!
Everyone trembles before Chen Hongmei's cleaver!
Her sons and daughters-in-law: "Why has Mom suddenly become so fired up?"
Her grandkids: "Grandma/Granny is in her fifties. This is the perfect age to go for it!"
Her fussy husband: "Why did I get slapped too?"
The neighbors: "Has that shrewish, fierce woman who pretended to be quiet for over a decade come back?!"
Chen Hongmei brandishes her cleaver at the scumbags: "If I hit you, you take it. If I curse you, you put up with it!"
If you won't accept it, then fight!
