【Rural life + period setting + city life + everyday family drama】
Li Yue, the third child of the Li family, was the family’s living stepping-stone. To put her four siblings through school, she tearfully dropped out and spent half her life working from dawn to dusk. Watching her sisters wear new clothes and study while she was covered in patches and trapped in the yellow earth, she clenched her fists. She would break out and live for herself, just once!
She thought getting married would free her from the misery of her birth family. But as soon as she stepped into her husband’s home, life became even harder than before!
“I saved those eggs for my child. If Father-in-law wants some, he can buy his own!” Li Yue set the bowl on the table, her gaze cold as ice. “For years, I put my younger siblings through school and looked after everyone in your family. I don’t owe you a thing! From now on, no one gets to take what belongs to me or my child!”
