I Gave Everything and Died Miserably. Reborn at Fifty, I’ll Take It All

[Period + reborn + short-tempered old woman + family life and ensemble cast + unyielding, fiery, and tough + making money without a golden finger + the worst of the worst turning on each other + satisfying wish-fulfillment]

“To hell with loving mother and filial son! In this life, all I love is money!”

In her previous life, Wang Cuiping spent the whole of it as a workhorse for her four ungrateful children, draining the family savings and driving her eldest daughter to her death. Then, in old age, her son begrudged the cost of her medicine, and she and her husband froze to death in a storage room!

When she opened her eyes again, it was 1986. Fifty-year-old Wang Cuiping had turned utterly ruthless. In this life, she would never torment herself over anyone, and she would recognize no family ties!

Her hypocritical eldest son wanted a free ride? She split open his secret stash with an axe, stripped him of everything, and sent him rolling off to the garbage heap to fight the dogs for scraps!

Her street-roaming second son stole her bankbook? She sent him to prison for eight years in the far northwest, even if it meant turning in her own flesh and blood!

Her venomous third son wanted to set a fire? She drenched him in a bucket of foul slop, broke his ribs, and sent him to toil like an ox in a black-brick kiln!

Her vain youngest son eloped with someone? You can't talk sense into a fool bent on dying. She sold him into the mountains to be a shared husband, without even batting an eyelid!

After cutting ties with her children, Wang Cuiping set out with her spineless husband and long-suffering eldest daughter. Starting with a roadside pancake stall, they seized the opportunities of the times, bought shops, made a fortune, and lived high off the hog.

The irony was that in her previous life, she had given those children her whole heart and died without even a complete corpse. In this life, she was hard-hearted and had money in her pocket, and those ungrateful children she had ground beneath her feet were now kowtowing and weeping, begging for a chance to show their filial devotion...
