The General's Wife Keeps House

Her husband was a man of both letters and arms, a celebrated commander who had won countless honors over eight years of campaigning. The royal rewards he received could circle the capital three times. But... all of that was in the past. Now her husband, the marshal, had lost his troops, and the general was crippled. The entire Bu family had loyally given their lives for their country, until only one old man and one cripple remained. Then the heartless emperor drove them out of the capital. It was truly a miserable, wretched situation. Xi Yunzhi's greatest wish in this life was to make sure her whole family had enough to eat. Looking at the large sum of private money she'd painstakingly saved, she thought it should be enough, and asked, "How many people are there in the Bu family?" Her husband's two guards exchanged a glance and answered in unison, "Madam, there are two hundred thousand people." "..." "Oh no, the general's wife has fainted!" Penniless and with no rice to cook, the general's wife said that running this household... was going to be hard. [Coming Soon] This is an inspirational story about a young widow whose husband's cruel family throws her out. She takes her two sons and uses an unusual way to make money, eventually building a fortune, achieving a comfortable life, and putting the wicked in their place. The Survival Diary of Madam Mei ★ A word from Uncle Hua: The author is a grubby old man, and my writing isn't polished. That's mostly down to my personality. I really can't write a beautiful passage that spends ages describing a bowl of rice, so please forgive me. This story moves at a brisk pace, with no dragging plotlines. It's a satisfying comeback story, with the occasional wild premise, but nothing that gets in the way of reading. My motto is: Bad guys are bad, but good guys should be even worse. If you're wicked enough to bring your own doom, I'll make sure you meet it even faster. Thank you. ★ Working on a new story. Here's a preview of the blurb: The Wise Ruler's Observation Diary Theme:
