[My new novel, My Brother-in-Law Is the Male Lead, is now underway. Please add it to your favorites! - 4/18]
In her previous life, Cheng Xiaozhen failed the college entrance exam. Through an introduction, she married Liu Zhihua.
She thought that if she gave up her dream of going to college and settled down as a wife, life might not be wonderful, but it would at least be decent.
She never expected her husband to become a drunk and squander the family fortune. And when she was suffering from a difficult labor, he stubbornly declared, "Save the baby!"
"Doctor... My family has had only one son for three generations..."
Cheng Xiaozhen wanted to laugh. As she laughed, she began to cry.
Reborn, she found herself right at the moment the matchmaker came to call.
"Xiaozhen, you're not getting any younger. Why not find someone and get married? This man is a good match. His family has had only one son for three generations, and he's their only boy..."
"Get out!"
Cheng Xiaozhen scowled and grabbed a broom, beating the scumbag until he landed flat on his face.
She had planned to persuade her family and remain firm in her resolve to study. But a matter involving her academic records unearthed a shocking secret: she had never actually failed the college entrance exam. Someone had impersonated her and gone to college in her place, becoming a university student...
Reborn, Cheng Xiaozhen decided to live differently.
The grades were hers, the university place was hers. Anyone who dared take them would lose a hand.
As for that one-son-for-three-generations kind of man, whoever wanted him could have him!
She attended a top university, built up her wealth, bought a factory and became its female director. She also met the man who had waited for her all his life in her previous life...
Only then did Cheng Xiaozhen realize that life could turn out in a completely different way.
*
Liu Lili, the daughter of a factory director, used her father's influence to swap her college entrance exam results with Cheng Xiaozhen's.
She had everything planned out. She would change her name, go to university, then change it back during her freshman year.
Wasn't Cheng Xiaozhen beautiful? Hadn't she always been at the top of her class? Surely it would hurt to fail to get into college.
Thinking of Cheng Xiaozhen looking miserable and dejected, Liu Lili was so delighted she could wake up laughing from her dreams.
She never imagined that Cheng Xiaozhen knew everything!
She had only been at university for six months and hadn't even had the chance to change her name back when the police showed up and sent her and her father to prison!
Life in prison was no picnic. After finally serving her time, Liu Lili stared in disbelief at the brand-new food processing plant before her.
Someone told her it didn't belong to the state anymore. It was Cheng Xiaozhen's personal property.
When the factory director arrived, everyone bowed and scraped.
Liu Lili stood there without moving, so someone smacked the back of her head and forced her down.
"What, are you stupid? Say hello to the factory director!"

Title: Raising Kids in the Military Compound in the Seventies
Blurb: In her previous life, everyone envied Su Yu for her good fortune. Her husband was a regiment commander, and his family was influential. While others were still worrying about having children, Su Yu was already way ahead.
Not only did she raise two sons and a daughter of her own, she also adopted the three orphaned children of her husband's fallen comrade. With children and grandchildren all around her, many called her the most fortunate woman in the military compound.
Su Yu thought, whoever wanted that kind of good fortune could have it!
There were so many children in the family, and they were all at that awkward in-between age.
Other families measured their meals by the bowlful; hers measured theirs by the pound. A whole vat of grain would be gone in less than three days.
The boys were mischievous, climbing trees to raid nests and diving into the water to catch fish. The clothes they took off at bath time piled up like a small mountain.
Su Yu had just one little stool and washed clothes from sunrise to sunset.
At last, when all the children started school, she hadn't even had time to catch her breath.
One would get into a fight today, another would cause trouble tomorrow. Every time she went to the school office, the teacher's face was longer than a donkey's.
Su Yu would bow and scrape, apologizing so profusely she could work her way from one end of the office to the other...
Reborn, Su Yu returned to ten years earlier. Her youngest daughter had yet to be born, and her husband had just brought home his three fallen comrade's orphaned children.
Looking at the five little terrors standing in front of her, all clamoring to be fed, Su Yu knew it was too late to get a divorce. She decided to try a different approach to raising them.
*
When Zhao Shinien returned from the battlefield, he found that the household had been turned upside down.
The eldest was rubbing Su Yu's back, the second had just brought over a bowl of noodles, the third was busy cleaning the house, the fourth was sitting on a little stool washing everyone's clothes, and the fifth was telling a story to Su Yu's belly...
Zhao Shinien had just washed his hands and was about to sit down to eat.
The eldest said, "Dad, you haven't done any work yet! Mom said only children who work get to eat."
Zhao Shinien said, "But you finished all the chores. I don't have anything to..."
The fourth stood up and pulled out a stack of clothes. "Dad, our little sister will be born soon, and her clothes still need to be washed and dried."
Zhao Shinien looked at his wife hopefully.
Su Yu said, "If you don't want to wash them, that's fine. Tomorrow I'll find someone who does want to wash them and likes doing chores!"
Zhao Shinien: "!!!"
In the end, Regiment Commander Zhao gave in.
The strapping man grabbed a little stool and sat down beside the fourth child.
Zhao Shinien said, "Son, scoot over. Dad's running out of room."
Well, he was still his own father. The fourth child reluctantly wriggled over a couple of inches.
Sitting inside, Su Yu covered her belly and laughed quietly.
The children needed to be taught, and so did the man who never lifted a finger at home, even when an oil bottle fell over!

I finished reading it in a hurry. The heroine is written by a female protagonist. She doesn't have a long tongue. It is said to be sweet and refreshing, but it makes me feel depressed all the time. The love of the male protagonist is also quite inexplicable.
It's been several chapters and I haven't seen you find any use.
Teachers with colored glasses are the most disgusting and are not worthy of being teachers
Originally it was the heroine's problem. She just said she was Xiaoyun and took it back to Xie's house without checking anything.
Is it so easy to identify one's parents? No need to do a paternity test? It's such a child's play for a high-ranking family.
