[Period Setting, Reborn, Family Regrets Too Late, No Romance, Building Wealth]
In her past life, Zhao Guihua wore herself out for her three sons, selling her house and even her blood to support them as they built their lives. In the end, she was left paralyzed in bed, passed around like a ball by her three daughters-in-law, and starved to death on New Year's Eve.
Reborn in 1985, she finds her eldest son pressuring her to hand over her late husband's pension to buy a "steel mill job quota." Her second son wants to transfer the ancestral home she lives in to his grandson as a marital home, while her youngest daughter cries and makes a scene demanding hundreds of yuan for a fashionable synthetic-fiber dress.
Zhao Guihua looks at the roomful of ungrateful wretches and slaps them hard across the face!
"Money? Not a cent! The house? Don't even think about it!"
In this life, she'll live selfishly and boldly!
Not only will she refuse to give them money, she'll also draw up the Zhao Family Support Act:
Want a meal? Pay for your food! Want a place to live? Pay rent! Don't listen? Then we'll go to the police station and cut ties!
Watching the old woman heartily feast on meat, decked out in gold and silver, her once-arrogant children kneel on the floor, wailing: "Mom, we were wrong! Please give us a little soup!"
