Reborn in the 1980S: This Old Lady Won’t Clear Her Children’s Names

[Period] [Feel-good power fantasy] [Family life] [No golden finger] [Reborn] [Get rich] Old Lady Cao died a miserable, bitter death in her previous life. She favored her eldest son, expecting him to support her in old age, but her eldest daughter-in-law abused her to death. After taking over her job, her eldest daughter married into a wealthy family and wanted nothing more than to cut ties with her poor family. Her second son became a live-in son-in-law and had long since forgotten he even had parents. She neglected to discipline her youngest son, and he ended up in prison with a twenty-year sentence. She never even got to see him before she died… The only one who was filial was her third son, the one she usually treated poorly. Yet she dragged him down too, ruining his reputation and leaving him to spend most of his life paying off debts… Reborn, she promptly takes back everything her eldest son had, cripples his hand, and leaves him destitute, begging for alms and wishing he were dead. She shows no mercy to her eldest daughter, an ungrateful parasite who only takes and never gives. She goes to the army herself to report her second son for currying favor with the rich and powerful, then abandoning his wife and child. … Later, they weep bitterly, kneeling and begging. Does it do them any good? Yes, they’re her children, but it’s also true that she really did die at their hands. She, Cao Xiaohua… will never whitewash their misdeeds. This time, she’ll make amends to her third and fourth sons by building bridges and roads, developing a scenic area, and establishing a trading center famous at home and abroad! She’ll also lead all the women in town to prosperity and help them stand tall! Hoard houses, land, and gold, then fly around the world in a private plane! What a rush! Her divorced husband, whose fingers she chopped off, watches with teary eyes as she holds hands, dances, plays chess, and has heart-to-heart talks with other old men! Bonus scene: “Mom, here’s a hundred million. Use it as your dowry!”
