Cuiying’s Second Half of Life

The officially authorized novel adaptation of Nine Heavens Manju's original animated series, The Second Half of Cuiying's Life.

Li Cuiying was widowed at twenty-two. For thirty years, she ran a street stall alone, putting her son Zhou Qiang through college and helping him get married. She thought the hard times were finally over, but instead became an ATM for her daughter-in-law Lin Xue and her in-law Zhang Yuemei. On her fifty-second birthday, her son announced that he was hosting a banquet. She looked forward to it with all her heart, only to discover that it was a celebration for his mother-in-law passing her driving test. She neither cried nor gave in. She bought twenty packets of spicy strips and set them on gilded porcelain plates at a five-star hotel. The moment the silver lids were lifted, the guests were stunned and the truth exploded into the open! And the Pei family president, seated at the head table and worth tens of billions, suddenly smiled as he looked at the spicy strips on the plate.
