On her fiftieth birthday, Lin Xiulan prepared a table full of dishes. What awaited her was not a birthday wish, but her husband's divorce papers and the words, “You haven't been useful for years.”
In thirty years of marriage, she served her in-laws, raised three sons, and kept the household running flawlessly. In return, her family took her for granted and looked down on her. On the day they divorced, she was thrown out with nothing, and everyone thought her life was over.
But no one expected that the three sons who had once treated her coldly would each come looking for her, as if they had lost control. One was the CEO of a tech giant, another a top lawyer, and the third a major power broker in the entertainment industry.
“Mom, come home with me.”
“I was wrong before.”
“Please don't abandon us.”
Even the man who had cast her aside finally realized that he had never been the true heart of the family.
This time, Lin Xiulan would no longer live as anyone's appendage. She would live for herself.
I think this book written by the author is very real. Life is made up of very trivial things. The work of a housewife is repeated day after day, year after year, three meals a day. Clean the floor, sort out clutter, and sort out clothes. The work of housewives is particularly hard. Because they have no income, they neglect their husbands and children. Therefore, housewives should cherish themselves and show their merits appropriately. To be respected by your husband and children.
