[Alternate-history period setting] [Satisfying revenge] [Reborn] [No golden finger] [Family squabbles]
In her sixties, Old Madam Zhou had worked herself to the bone and spent her whole life trying to be strong. She thought she would finally enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren in her old age, but instead, over the question of who would support her, her unfilial children tossed her around like a ball.
In the bitter cold of winter, during the season when everyone stayed indoors, she collapsed on the street, skin and bones. In the end, it was her least favored younger daughter-in-law who carried her home and cared for her for three days, until she breathed her last.
When she opened her eyes again, Zhou Hongyi had been Reborn in the 1980s. This time, to hell with raising sons to support you in old age, and to hell with blood ties and family affection!
Keep running your mouths and I’ll knock each of you flat!
You’re unfilial? Fine. I’ll treat my daughters-in-law like my own daughters, and the lot of you little bastards can get lost!
You want to go to college? Fine. I’ll put your father through school myself, so my husband, who died young, can have a smooth and happy life this time around.
Nearly forty, Old Madam Zhou is radiant and living life to the fullest.
She can forge metal, do carpentry, cook like a pro, and even speak a little English. One “I love you” from her is enough to drop a whole crowd’s jaws.
Chen Jingyu, a university professor who was also claimed as family by a military commander, blushed bright red... “Dad, she spoils me~~”
