Her husband, whom she's already married to, is supposedly impotent, so Jiang Mingcha carefully protects his dignity to survive. But on the second day after their marriage, Jiang Mingcha can't take it anymore and packs her bags to run away from home.

    I recommend this historical fiction. Grandma Xia is very strong; just like the title suggests, she's a reborn old woman with a rebellious spirit, but it's actually a story of a woman's growth. It's quite different from other historical fiction; you can feel that although Grandma Xia is old, her thinking is ahead of its time. There are many interesting parts in the book; you can discover them for yourself.
