(Also known as: Reborn in the 1990s: My Dutiful Children Are All Fakes)
Model mother Chen Lanxiang is reborn, back in the 1990s, when her three ungrateful sons are draining her dry!
In her previous life, she gave everything she had to get her eldest son a government job, scraped together money so her second son could pursue one foolish scheme after another, and spoiled her youngest until he became a little devil. As she lay dying, all she got in return was her sons fighting over a few thousand yuan in funeral expenses and shoving her around like a piece of trash.
Reborn, Chen Lanxiang grabs a fire poker from beside the kang. She's done serving them! Her “child-rearing products” have serious defects, so she's recalling them all for a complete overhaul!
Her eldest daughter-in-law sneers, “Mom, have you lost your mind? Baozhu is your precious darling. How could you bring yourself to hit him?”
Her second son plays both sides: “Mom, you can't favor Big Brother. He has a good job, so he should pay more!”
Her youngest throws a tantrum: “Mom! If you don't give me money for a pair of Warrior sneakers, I'll kill myself!”
Chen Lanxiang laughs coldly. “If you've had enough of life, go ahead and die. I'll have your coffin ready! Want money from me? Fine. First pay me back the 300 yuan I raised by selling my gold bracelet to cover your brother's betrothal gifts!”
Her husband, Li Mancang, trembles. “Lanxiang... Are you the one in charge of this family now?”
Chen Lanxiang: “What do you think?”
With a retirement support agreement in one hand to block her sons from leeching off her, and a peddler's shoulder pole in the other to carry her toward a golden future, she's ready to make her own fortune.
In the opportunity-filled 1990s, she'll use the pastry-making skills she learned in her previous life to build herself a queen's kingdom!
As for those unfilial sons? They'll all go tighten screws on an assembly line!
