Military marriage, business in the 1970s, class mobility (the elite)
In her previous life, she worked herself to the bone raising four ungrateful wolves. Paralyzed and bedridden, she was left with only her third son to clean her up and bury her! Reborn in 1979, she finds the ungrateful children forcing her to split up the household and surrender her property. Jiang Wan laughs. This time, she'll be the one to light the fire!
Split up the family? Not a chance!
Flames reflect in her ice-cold eyes. “From this day on, I'll spend my hard-earned money and forge my way to success only for the people I choose!”
Beat up the local ruffians and make a name for herself in the countryside!
Her gaze fixes on her quiet third son, Jiang Jianye, who is tending sheep.
“Put down that shepherd's crook! Come with Auntie and make something of yourself: enlist in the army! Become a top soldier and crush the skulls of these bloodsucking leeches!”
Wildfire blazes in the young man's eyes. “I'm in!”
The end of the seventies, a changing tide!
She keeps her ears open and deals “navy-style shirts” on the black market to earn her first fortune! She uses her knowledge of the future to get a “letter of introduction” and boldly enter the provincial capital's business world! She sends her top soldier into the army, paving the way for his bright future! Make money, settle scores! Send the wolf cubs to the heights of glory? Only so she can personally kick them into the abyss and grind them into the dirt!
Everyone says that Jiang Wan, the unmarried older woman, is as fierce as a devil and as protective as a mad tiger!
Only the cold, stern officer Lu Fei sees the ruthlessness beneath her fangs of revenge and her astonishing power to shake up the business world!
“Your methods are ruthless, but your timing... I'll take care of that!” He steps in:
Bringing the top soldier into the army makes him even more formidable, while secret connections clear every obstacle on her business path!
By the time the unmarried woman from the old loess slope has become a business tycoon with a golden touch and the elite of the military compound, everyone knows her as one of the privileged few!
Lu Fei grasps her hand, stained with blood and gold, his gaze deep as the sea.
“Boss Jiang, you've had your revenge and you're tired of the business world... It's time to come home with me, take the top spot as the commander's wife, and let me keep you warm for the rest of your life!”
