A fanfiction based on Romance of Our Parents, a wish-fulfillment story told from the perspective of Jiang Defu's ex-wife. These are the author's personal ideas, with no intention of promoting anything inappropriate.
Zhang Guilan was the village's envy, an officer's wife. But after her husband went missing for years, she went from being envied by everyone to being bullied by everyone.
Her husband's disabled brother sneaked into her room. She was supposed to be raped and branded an adulterous woman, despised by all.
But Zhang Guilan suddenly snapped awake. She beat his disabled brother until he was even more disabled, and didn't wait for Jiang Defu to divorce her on the grounds that she'd been unfaithful. She took the initiative and divorced him herself.
Though she was already thirty after the divorce, it wasn't too late. She spent less time fooling around and more time reading the paper. By broadening her horizons, she stayed young at heart, and successfully married for a second time to Zhan Tianyao, an officer like herself.
You, Jiang Defu, rose to power, and your whole family got to move into the military district.
As for me, I had a hellish start from the start. I became a virtuous wife and a strategist, helping a low-ranking soldier rise through the ranks and become a great general.
You, An Jie, were a rich heiress with a charmed life, and became a commander's wife.
I may have had bad luck, but I can defy fate and change my destiny to become a general's wife.
You had children of both sexes, and your whole brood couldn't wait to laugh at me.
Well, let your children watch. Go on, just watch. You'll be speechless. I'm living better than you are!
