    (A light novel with no overpowered abilities, focusing on everyday life, family matters, and a cast of ordinary people, set in a different era, featuring a reincarnation story.) Old Mrs. Zhang raised three sons and three daughters, bought houses for her children's weddings, raised her grandchildren, emptied her savings to buy a house for her eldest son in Shanghai, arranged three marriages for her second son, sold her house to support her youngest son's studies abroad, and in her old age, she and her husband were left without care.

"Those ungrateful wretches who eat and drink for free at home, kick them all out! Give them back what they've eaten, drunk, and used! I believe in money more than anything else. If I had money, would I have trouble finding filial children and grandchildren?"
