The Socially Anxious Mute Becomes the Amnesiac Commander’s Wicked Ex-Wife

During the famine of the 1960s, Yun Qiao’s mother-in-law had just starved to death when her husband died a heroic death.

She didn’t care whether her adopted daughter lived or died, using all the compensation money to bring a man into the family as her live-in husband.

After remarrying, she was lazy and greedy, made the man work like a slave, and abused her adopted daughter. Her wicked deeds became known throughout the village.

One day, when the man returned to the city, she collapsed from hunger. Her adopted daughter ate the last bite of food right in front of her.

Yun Qiao, a modern-day social-anxiety-ridden mute, transmigrated into the original Yun Qiao’s body on her wedding night to the rough, brawny man.

Her adopted daughter was only five, and the original had sent her out into the rain to guard the courtyard gate.

Terrified of the original Yun Qiao’s fate of starving to death, she abandoned the man and rushed to bring the child back inside.

From then on, she lived anxiously and worked diligently, doing her best not to provoke the amnesiac commander or the adopted daughter with her mysterious background.

But the brawny man kept coming to her night after night, his eyes red as he demanded,

[Where are your eyes? Why won’t you look at me?]

Even the adopted daughter who had once hated her tugged at her clothes and pleaded,

[Mama, you can have all my food. Please don’t ignore me.]
