Reborn as the Wicked Mother-in-Law: I Lead the Whole Family to Success Through Farming

Xu Fengxian, known throughout Kaoshan Village as “Xu the Tiger,” is sharp-tongued, cruel, and favors sons over daughters. She lives to the age of fifty, driving her daughter-in-law to throw herself down a well, turning her son into a walking corpse, and treating her daughter like a financial burden. In the end, she dies alone in a ruined temple while fleeing famine.

Before she dies, the daughter she has always looked down on brings her a bowl of rice broth and says softly, “Mother, have a sip.”

She never gets the chance to reply.

When she opens her eyes again, she is back on the third day of the second month in the fourteenth year of Yonghe. In her hands is the abortion medicine she is about to force on her eldest son’s wife. She throws it away, picks up a hoe, and cultivates a way to survive through the famine.
