[Period setting + mind-reading + face-slapping + joining the army + marrying a political officer]
Zhang Ruyan is forced to transmigrate into a novel set in a bygone era. Although she has six children, she still can't compare to her husband's first love in his heart. She is abandoned at a nursing home and starves to death, while her senior-officer husband joyfully brings his first love home as his new wife. Their children are left with tragic fates as well.
Eldest son: He marries a shrew, and the wild man she brings home breaks both his legs and stabs him, leaving him impotent.
Second son: He marries into another family and spends every day trying to please his mother-in-law. In the end, his job is taken over by his brother-in-law, and he becomes a walking blood bank.
Third son: He is framed for harassing and assaulting someone, and is executed by firing squad.
Youngest son: A relative tricks him into trafficking foreign goods, a crime known as profiteering. He is thrown in prison and left to fend for himself.
Eldest daughter: Against her mother's wishes, she marries a greasy man with nothing to his name. She is forced to act as the family's servant every day, and is eventually kicked out because she can't have children.
Youngest daughter: She is determined to run away with a greasy man, but ends up sold into the red-light district and dies in a toilet.
My whole family is destined to be cannon fodder. Even if I can hear their thoughts, I refuse to believe it! What can you do to me?
Male lead: I think there's something wrong with this housekeeper of mine!
It ends in an anticlimax and ends very hastily, leaving people confused.
