[Making a fortune x everyday family life x raising a child x no golden finger]
When Lin Su wakes up, she has transmigrated into a book.
The original owner was a sacrificial first wife in a story set in a bygone era. After her husband “faked his death,” he went to the big city and fell in love with the heroine, while she spent ten years as a widow, raising their deaf son alone. Just when she finally scraped together enough money for his medicine, the male and female leads lost the boy, and she eventually died of grief.
Lin Su: ...
I'm not wasting my life mourning that scumbag!
Lin Su rolls up her sleeves, outsmarts her ruthless in-laws to get the compensation money, and takes her son to the city.
The residents of Spring Grass Alley see that the new young widow is pretty and urge her to remarry while she's still young. Some even suggest giving her son away.
Lin Su ignores them all. She sets up a stall, opens a snack shop, and uses her excellent cooking to make a fortune. She becomes a small-business owner everyone envies, with matchmakers practically wearing down her doorstep.
Lin Su waves them off. “I'm already seeing someone: Yan Ningbei, the man at the Public Security Bureau across the street.”
The matchmakers leave disappointed, privately convinced Lin Su is making it up. No matter how pretty or wealthy she is, she's still a widow with a child in tow. How could a promising young captain of the criminal investigation team possibly be interested in her?
But later, the two really do get married. They say the usually aloof Captain Yan had to shamelessly chase his wife before he finally won her over...
Couple: an optimistic, gentle beauty x a cool, elite police officer
