I Became a Forty-Year-Old Madam

Shen Wanxi had been a strategist for eight years, always able to predict events with uncanny accuracy and plan for every contingency. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that one day she would open her eyes and find herself a forty-year-old matriarch in a household full of women!

In an instant, her life went from taking pleasure in teasing her lord to becoming a widow whose days revolved around disciplining her children.

Worse still, the former matriarch had given birth to three sons and five daughters, and had a whole brood of grandchildren. She had also been selfish and mean, and every one of her children and grandchildren was a headache.

The one upside was that all three sons were unquestioningly dutiful. She was the most authoritative person in the family.

With power and money on her side, she had nothing to worry about. If she could teach even the most powerful ruler under heaven, how could she possibly fail to manage this household?

P.S. 1. The male lead is the emperor. He has ruled for twenty years and waited for the female lead for twenty years.

2. The female lead was a strategist in her previous life, and her vision extends far beyond the household.

3. A story centered on a powerful female lead, with plenty of wish fulfillment.
