Reborn in the 1980S: My Dutiful Children Can All Get Lost

[1980s] [An elderly woman is reborn] [Family life] [Ensemble cast of ordinary people] [No golden finger] Old Madam Li spent her whole life working herself to the bone. She bought houses for her children, lived apart from her husband so she could help them, and looked after her grandchildren. Who could have guessed that her old age would end in such misery? Her husband suffered so badly from stomach cancer that he writhed in pain. They couldn't even afford painkillers that cost just a few dimes, and he died in agony. When the couple's only cramped, dilapidated house was demolished, their children fought over the compensation money. In the midst of the argument, Old Madam Li coughed up blood in anger and died. When she opened her eyes again, she discovered she had been reborn. Since she had another life, who cared about the spineless life she'd lived before? Old Madam Li would put herself first and live only for herself. Her ungrateful second daughter wants her to take over her job: Why would I want that when I can collect my own pension? Get lost! Her former second daughter-in-law, already scheming before she'd even married into the family: There's no room for you in this family as long as I'm here. Get lost! Her lazy, gluttonous third son: You want to sponge off me? I'll break your legs. Get lost! Her love-struck youngest daughter: Study hard and get into college. Your head is for learning, not for stuffing with mush! She changes the tragic fate of her eldest son, who died in the army, and dotes on the eldest daughter-in-law who treated her well in her previous life, even more than she would her own daughter. What? Her filial eldest daughter is being mocked for marrying a country bumpkin? Old Madam Li helps her open a restaurant, then another, and another... until she becomes an entrepreneur everyone envies! Little by little, Old Madam Li realizes that her get-lost education is working miracles. The ungrateful children from her previous life seem to have become... filial? In this life, she is a daughter, a wife, and a mother-in-law, but she is no one's mother. More than anything, she is herself! She will live for herself!
