Song Jingzhi, who fought her way back from the apocalypse, becomes a timid mother-in-law in 1980. Worse still, her whole family is a bunch of crybabies.
Her husband died young, and her children are all pushovers who are constantly bullied by the villagers. Song Jingzhi decides she’s had enough.
She rolls up her sleeves and takes on the outside world, showing everyone what an evil queen looks like.
Soon, no one dares bully her family anymore. But what can they do when life is still so hard?
She looks at her children.
Her eldest son is a village cook, so Song Jingzhi teaches him to sell braised snacks. His street stall grows into a shop, and the shop becomes a catering giant.
Her second son’s wife has nimble hands and knows how to sew and embroider, so Song Jingzhi gives her clothing designs from the decades to come. The moment the finished garments go in the shop window, they sell out, and she becomes a fashion icon in the provincial capital.
Her youngest daughter loves tinkering with secondhand appliances? Song Jingzhi waves her off to start a factory. She launches her own appliance brand, selling everything from flashlights and electric fans to refrigerators, televisions, and washing machines, bringing them into millions of homes.
As far as Song Jingzhi is concerned, not one person in the family gets to sit around. Everyone is going out to make money!
