In her previous life, Old Madam Jiang lived like an NPC: she got married and had children, did the laundry and cooked, earned money to support her family, raised children and grandchildren, then waited for death when her time came. There was nothing remarkable about her life.
Reborn in the 1970s, the centenarian Old Madam Jiang suddenly became fifty-year-old Auntie Jiang.
It was too early to give up and too late to start over, but it was just the right time to make up for her regrets.
With the swaggering attitude that anyone who wasn’t on her side could just die, Auntie Jiang began her life anew.
She kicked out the sons who treated her like a beast of burden.
She cut ties with her ungrateful adopted daughter.
Her sweet, adorable grandchildren? She’d keep raising them for now.
And she’d enjoy some pure, natural, unpolluted food, too.
Auntie Jiang raised her fist and cried, “As long as I’m still breathing, nothing’s impossible!”
It's so good! I love this old lady so much. She's so straightforward and funny, and I'd even write down all her witty remarks. The first thing she did after being reborn was to unplug the old man's oxygen tube, haha! Then she distributed all the children away, living such a carefree life, not caring about anyone else.
At first glance, it seemed uneventful, with the reader simply waiting for the old woman's revenge. However, it wasn't a typical, formulaic "feel-good" story, nor did it have an overly heavy sense of malice. Instead, it offered a realistic portrayal of family relationships, with many humorous and engaging details.
The language is humorous, the plot flows smoothly, and the prices and background are meticulously researched. It possesses a rigorous monetary system and a plausible plot development that most period novels lack. It is my white moonlight author of period novels.
It's great! It's the kind of period drama I like, focusing on everyday family life! It all revolves around Grandma Jiang's life. It's so satisfying that she got reborn and kicked all the kids out! I love how happy she is, working hard every day and occasionally enjoying the gossip. The descriptions of the cafeteria food are also wonderful; they made me hungry just reading about it!
Some of it is humorous! And the innocent and childlike words of the kids make it quite relaxing to watch!
Beautiful, very beautiful The main characters are all normal people; the protagonist is very normal, and the sons are also very normal in their badness.
The kids are so cute! It's quite interesting! I came here after reading another book, "The Evil Old Lady on an Island."
The feeling of a gentle, flowing stream
The old lady is quite interesting. She's a bit lax in some aspects, but it's all about everyday life, so it doesn't really affect the reading experience. It's one of the better pieces from her writings.
Super good-looking, highly recommended
