[Female lead + period setting + golden finger + raising children + falling hard + devoted couple + cathartic revenge]
An Yiran was the top assassin of the Life and Death Pavilion. Her extraordinary skills made countless people fear and frame her. Tired of a life of bloodshed, she let herself sink into darkness.
When she opened her eyes again…
She found herself in a shabby earthen house with drafty paper windows, surrounded by grasping relatives who wanted to suck her dry, and two scrawny little children hiding timidly behind the door.
An Yiran: Where am I?
Her gaze fell on the strange faces hovering above their heads.
An Yiran: “…And what’s this?”
Yu Bei clutched her younger brother protectively, warily watching her foolish stepmother.
Was she going to hand over their food again?
To their surprise…
Their “foolish mother” kicked out the greedy relatives who barged in to steal their money and food, punched a wild boar that had come down the mountain to ravage the crops, and rounded up vile human traffickers without a second thought.
Yu Bei and her brother Yu Tong stared in shock: If you’ve beaten them, you won’t beat us, right?~
Yu Yanye, who had been forced to retire because of his paralyzed legs, learned that his dear parents had found him a foolish wife.
After one blow after another, he’d lost all hope.
Whatever. He’d just put up with it. It wasn’t like anything would come of it.
But after his foolish wife suddenly came to her senses, the children went from skinny and sallow to plump and rosy-cheeked, their drafty earthen house became a spacious, bright new home, and while everyone else worried about finding their next meal, they ate meat every day. Even his legs, which had been declared beyond hope, were healed by her with a casual wave of her hand.
Yu Yanye: Being kept is the best!
PS: Contains mildly coercive elements. The male lead is thoroughly under her thumb, and loving it.
