Lin Shihao is reborn in the 1980s, returning to the day his family's fate took its biggest turn!
In his previous life, he had plenty of brothers and sisters, yet they were divided and estranged, even turning against one another. The whole family lived in a complete mess.
His parents spent their later years in misery, dying alone at home without anyone even noticing!
His eldest brother and his family were honest, simple people. They were bullied with no one to stand up for them, and spent their lives as timid, helpless laughingstocks in the village.
His second brother and his family were clever, all right, but they schemed against their own kin and no one else. In the end, they didn't fare any better.
His third brother and his family were lazy cheats, always dreaming up crooked schemes. With no one to keep them in check, they ended up behind bars, their property confiscated, and spent their lives in poverty.
His eldest, second, third, and fourth sisters all married poorly too. Their husbands' families were either overbearing or spineless, or the husbands were too old, missing limbs, and so on. It was a mess all around!
The real problem was that no one from their own family would stand up for them!
As for Lin Shihao himself, he lived a miserable life. It wasn't until he turned sixty that he finally realized the truth: a family has to stick together. Only by staying united can they be strong!
A family should be like the seeds of a pomegranate, packed tightly together, so they can unleash their full strength!
Reborn, Lin Shihao swears: the family will never split up!!!
He'll bring the whole family's strength together and lead them all to a prosperous life!!
