Only after Shen Qiushuang died did she learn that the world she lived in was actually a novel.
As a ghost, Shen Qiushuang watched her honest, simple-minded husband spoil their children excessively, year after year, until they became unfilial and got into all kinds of trouble, even scattering her ashes. She cursed the heavens again and again.
Unexpectedly, a thunderous crash split the sky, and Shen Qiushuang came back to life.
But she returned to a time when her children had already been thoroughly spoiled.
Looking at her maddeningly troublesome family, Shen Qiushuang comforted herself: It’s fine. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Without them, she could enjoy her own life!
Those who can be set straight, she’ll set straight. The rest can get lost!
At forty-nine, she was just the right age to make her mark!
The moment she opened her eyes, all she could think about was making money.
Ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms that supposedly belonged to the heroine? Nonsense. They were clearly gifts from nature, and she was picking them!
Someone threw mud at her son? She told him to lie down and claim eighteen thousand yuan in compensation.
Her unfilial children held out their hands for money? She turned around and brainwashed them, using psychological manipulation to drain their wallets.
She bought a house, kept a tight grip on her money, and prepared to spend her later years supporting her husband with no help from their children.
But then
“Mom, my own dear mother, my beloved mom! Who else will treat me like a child if you’re gone?”
Could her selfish, rebellious children really have turned over a new leaf, one by one?
Even her once cold and demanding in-laws had changed their tune:
“Dear daughter-in-law, this family would be lost without you.”
Looking at her completely transformed family, Shen Qiushuang wondered if she was dreaming.
She pinched her thigh hard.
From next door, her honest, simple-minded husband let out a hiss, then asked with a silly grin:
“Old woman, what’s wrong?”
