An ordinary modern person transmigrates to ancient times, taking over the body of a wicked stepmother with the same name.
Things are hopeless from the start: disaster strikes, and the entire village is forced to flee. The original owner was cruel and selfish, often beating and neglecting her three young stepchildren. She left them skinny, bruised, and infamous throughout the village.
Luckily, transmigration comes with two golden fingers: a mobile phone shopping app stocked with food, medicine, and all kinds of rare treats.
Seeing the three children cowering in a corner, too frightened to look up, the heroine casts off the original owner’s ways and does everything she can to protect them as they flee and struggle to survive.
The three adorable little ones often tilt their heads and whisper, “Mama doesn’t hit us anymore. She even sneaks me candy! Mama’s gotten so gentle!” Their innocent chatter is sure to make you smile.
After they settle safely in a small town, the children’s shocking identities come to light: they aren’t ordinary kids at all, but a prince and two princesses who were lost among the common people.
The eldest is exceptionally bright and never forgets anything. He is the missing crown prince.
The second is naturally brave and strong, and will grow up to become a great general who protects the nation.
The youngest is quick-witted and inherits the heroine’s business acumen, destined to amass a fortune and become the richest woman in the capital.
Their father, who has never appeared in their lives, is one of the court’s top shadow guards. Years ago, he faked his death to escape danger and went into hiding with the three children.
Several years later, he suddenly reappears, his dark eyes fixed firmly on the heroine as he says with single-minded sincerity, “I was absent through every storm. Let me spend the rest of my life protecting you.”
