After Granny Xiang divides up the family property, her three sons throw her out of the house, and her youngest son sets his dogs on her and has her killed. Then she is reborn in the 1980s. The first thing she does when she opens her eyes is grab a broom and thrash her three ungrateful sons!
In her previous life, she poured her heart into raising three wretches: her eldest son sold his sister for money, her second son repaid kindness with betrayal, and her third son sicced dogs on his own mother. Reborn with memories of her previous life as her golden finger, the old woman sneers: This time, the cleaver is for my unfilial sons, and the candy jar is for my own daughters!
She tears up a fake marriage certificate, boots out her parasitic in-laws, helps her eldest daughter start a pig farm, and sends her youngest daughter to join the cultural troupe.
She resells homespun cloth and opens a textile mill, along the way picking up a retired officer to be her companion.
“Touch my daughter? Ask the five hundred women at my factory if they'll let you!”
Zhou Zhengguo kneels on one knee, holding up his bankbook: “The factory is yours, the money is yours, and... I'm yours, too.”
See how this feisty old woman takes down one awful character after another, sets her household straight, leads her daughters to the top, and enjoys an outrageously sweet romance with her officer husband!
Really impressed, so verbose
