My Stepmother Helps Me Rise to Great Heights, So I'll Repay Her with a Noblewoman's Robe

After working himself to the bone in one endless cycle of studying, Lin Qingzhu woke up on his knees in a corner of the ancestral hall. He had lost his modern memories and become the five-year-old illegitimate son of a marquis.

His knees ached from kneeling, and his stomach growled with hunger.

In the middle of the ancestral hall, a pale woman knelt and wept softly. She was the stepmother from little Lin Qingzhu's memories.

Weak with hunger, Lin Qingzhu crawled over and grabbed the steamed bun by his stepmother's feet. In a small voice, he called her "Mother..."

Li Xingniang had been switched at birth and raised by a farming family for seventeen years, then forced to marry into the Marquis's household as his second wife. She never imagined that the end of a lifetime of suffering would begin when her neglected stepson called her "Mother."

Reader note: The male lead will gradually regain his modern memories as he grows up in ancient times, so at five years old, he has the mind of a five-year-old!

More focused on family bonds, with a large ensemble cast.

Theme: No matter how difficult your circumstances, keep pushing through the clouds.
