In her previous life, Jiang He caught her husband cheating, only for him to cruelly push her off a cliff and leave her to die in despair. When she opened her eyes again, she had been reborn in ancient times as the mother of four children in the Shen family. Her husband’s family was mean and greedy, and his parents were vicious by nature. Her husband spent years away on military service, then, after earning a little military merit, climbed the social ladder by marrying his superior’s daughter. He had long since forgotten all about her and the children.
She had read this book and knew how tragic the original ending was: In a year of famine and flight, corpses would litter the land. She would freeze and starve to death, while her four children would die or be scattered. Her well-behaved son would be tortured to death by the woman her husband married later. Their fate was horrifying.
Given a second life, Jiang He vowed never to repeat the same mistakes. Using the System she had unexpectedly bonded with, she planned each step carefully, severed ties with her cruel in-laws, and took her four young children to seek refuge with her own family. Knowing a flood was coming, she stockpiled food and supplies in advance and led her family on the road to escape the famine.
Along the way, she used the System to reclaim land, build a business, treat the sick, and save lives, gradually building a fortune while keeping her family safe. All four children flourished under her care and made names for themselves. And the quiet, taciturn man who had protected her in silence all along turned out to be the Second Prince, living incognito among the people. Through every storm, Jiang He not only became the leading lady everyone envied, but also found a love beyond compare and built a life of true happiness.
