I Found a Cute Zombie Baby and Got Rich, but the Soldier King Was Scared to Tears

[Period Setting] [Adorable Baby Zombie] [Building Wealth] [Hilarious Comeuppance for Villains] [Ghost-Fearing Soldier King]

Whose widowed daughter-in-law goes up the mountain to gather wild greens and, with a single swing of her spade, digs up a century-old zombie baby bawling for food?!

Chu Yun wakes up in the 1970s as a miserable young widow. There is not a scrap of fat in her belly, and her wicked mother-in-law wants to starve her to death and seize her property!

Faced with famine and the strict rules of the ration-ticket system, the old swindler of the martial world and master of the occult scoffs: Rules? They are nothing but my camouflage!

She heads into the mountains to seek dragon veins and auspicious burial sites, originally hoping only to trade her skills for a filling meal. Instead, she accidentally opens a cinnabar-painted coffin and takes in an irresistibly soft, adorable little zombie!

The little one presses its legs together and calls her “Mama” again and again. Not only is it immensely strong, it is also a top-tier treasure-hunting radar on two legs!

A century-old ginseng king, nests full of wild chicken eggs, underground antiques: all of it becomes free bulk merchandise for the mother and child!

When troublesome relatives show up, she simply sends her “good son” to dance on their bedsides.

By day, she bundles herself up like a giant rice dumpling and heads into town to trade for ration coupons. Late at night, she wolfs down meat beneath the moonlight. With her information advantage and occult know-how giving her an overwhelming edge, she makes a stunning comeback and becomes a star at the supply and marketing cooperative!

Just as Chu Yun counts so many banknotes her hands cramp, her soldier-king husband, who has come home after being presumed dead, watches the little treasure hopping around and sweeping the floor in the middle of the night. He trembles under the covers and asks:

“Honey! Does our kid’s cerebral palsy rehabilitation training really have to involve hanging upside down from a beam?!”
