Ye Yunling, who survived ten years in the apocalypse, transmigrates into a post-stepmother novel as a cannon-fodder supporting character, the heroine's foil.
In the novel, the heroine, Ye Weiwei, is beautiful and kind-hearted. After her husband's accidental death, she doesn't remarry, but instead devotes herself to raising her stepson. In the end, she helps him reclaim the family fortune, and the two become a celebrated example of stepmother and stepson.
The original host, however, beats and humiliates her stepchildren in every way, then ends up with a broken leg and disfigured face, suffering from illness until she dies.
Ye Yunling is just about to get a divorce when she thinks it over. Her husband is rich and rarely comes home, she already has children without having to give birth to them herself, and she gets to have one of each. Her in-laws don't live with her, either. Isn't this exactly the married life young people today dream of?
She'll take that role.

Other people take their children on variety shows, doing laundry, cooking, and looking after them. She sleeps until the sun is high and waits for the children to bring her food.
Other people are terrified their kids will get hurt. She takes them up the mountain to catch chickens and down to the river to catch fish, having even more fun than the children.
Other people teach their children to give up the best pear, be humble, and behave politely. She leads the kids in starting fights with the production crew.
At first, internet users look down on Ye Yunling's laissez-faire way of raising children.
Netizens: "Someone with no morals like her will only teach kids bad habits. I can't stand the sight of her. Can someone find an excuse to ban her already?"
Later, everyone sees that the usually quiet, stern-faced Young Master Lu gradually becomes cheerful and talkative, and even learns how to do laundry, cook, and handle all sorts of everyday tasks. Little Princess Lu Yuning, who was timid and always hid behind her brother, becomes bold, lively, and playful.
Netizens: "I could watch Ye Yunling's family all day. Their interactions crack me up. I think I've finally found the secret to switching from a hater to a fan."
Moms everywhere: "Please, Ye Yunling, write a parenting book!"
Ye Yunling's parenting philosophy: Never make life too sweet for the kids, and never make life too hard for yourself. Raise your sons and daughters frugally, but spend freely on yourself so you can grow strong. Let your kids learn to be independent early, so you can spend your money.

Lu Mo feels like he has no place in the family anymore.
His son, who used to hate Ye Yunling, tells him, "Dad, I think you're kind of unworthy of Mom. If you can't cut it, just divorce her. I'll find her someone better."
His daughter, who used to be afraid of Ye Yunling, says, "Dad, if you and Mom get divorced, I'll definitely stay with Mom, not you."
Lu Mo: "..." What happened while I was away?
Lu Yuning: "Big Brother, I think Dad's been acting strange lately. Last night he even tried to steal Mom's bed from me."
Lu Zihao answers without looking up: "He's showing off his feathers."

Recommended ongoing wish-fulfillment novel: "I Rant My Way Through the Entertainment Industry"
Career-minded Ye Zhenzhen transmigrates into the role of a love-struck supporting character. In the book, she works to support Wen Xuyan and spends five years as his secret girlfriend. After his career takes off, he wants to dump her, so he falsely accuses her of being a crazed fan. After being bullied and humiliated online, the original host dies by suicide.
When news breaks that Ye Zhenzhen will be appearing with Wen Xuyan on a reality show, she gets dragged across the trending topics.
Wen Xuyan, a self-important jerk, keeps making things difficult for Ye Zhenzhen and humiliating her on the show. "You think coming on this show will get my attention? It'll only make me hate you more."
Ye Zhenzhen grabs a brick and smacks him with it. "If you hate me, then go die. I don't pick up trash."
Her haters corner her in the bathroom and try to splash her with mop water. "You're always acting slutty and trying to seduce our oppa. You must have worked at a nightclub before."
Ye Zhenzhen grabs the other person's hair and shoves their face into the toilet, smearing unflushed shit all over them. "Your mouth stinks so much. Do you naturally love eating shit? Here, have another taste."
Everyone realizes that Ye Zhenzhen, who used to be timid, no longer tortures herself with overthinking. She curses out anyone who crosses her, and goes completely unhinged whenever there's trouble.
Faced with a male entertainer who likes to spread sexual rumors about women, Ye Zhenzhen says, "You're a VIP at the White Horse Club. You should get checked out sometime. That person you often book there was diagnosed with an STD last week."
Faced with an entertainer who ships male-male couples to cash in on women's love of BL while looking down on women, Ye Zhenzhen releases a recording and chat logs. "You really do have it both ways. Nice work."
Faced with a female entertainer who cultivates an innocent image while knowingly being the other woman, Ye Zhenzhen says, "Your kid can already call you Mom, and you're still pretending to be a young girl. I'm getting secondhand embarrassment just looking at you."
What's shocking is that everything Ye Zhenzhen exposes is true. The moment she speaks up, someone's career is ruined.
All the big talent agencies and entertainers live in fear. "Please, we're begging you, don't let Ye Zhenzhen speak again."
The whole internet begs her to clean up the entertainment industry. Netizens: "No, let her talk. I haven't had enough of this gossip yet."

Wen Xuyan, disgraced and ruined, posts on Weibo in an attempt to salvage his image: "I didn't understand love before, and I hurt her. I regret it now. Please give me a chance to make it up to you and take care of you. @Ye Zhenzhen"
Ye Zhenzhen: "Stay away from me. I'm allergic to trash."
That night, Best Actor Shen Lichen posts 108 Weibo messages attacking him, crashing Weibo outright.
Media: "???? What's going on?"
Shen Lichen: "Sorry, I forgot to switch accounts."
Everyone digs up Shen Lichen's secret account overnight, full of insults toward Wen Xuyan and declarations of love for Ye Zhenzhen.
A netizen asks Ye Zhenzhen, "I heard Best Actor Shen is secretly married and cheating, and abandoned his wife and child. Is it true?"
Ye Zhenzhen says, "False. Apart from acting, he hasn't even held a woman's hand. He's never even had his first kiss."
"Thank goodness, no one's been exposed this time." The netizens relax, then ask in confusion, "Wait, how do you know he still hasn't had his first kiss?"
Shen Lichen: "Because I tried to give her my first kiss last night, but failed."
Fan 1: "Son, Mom doesn't approve of this marriage. One family can't have two lunatics."
Fan 2: "He's so in love, I'm obsessed. Their shared affliction is a two-way street."

What good does divorce do to the Lord God? Why should we be forced to do this @@?
I didn't expect science fiction suddenly, but the ending is really good. But! Did you forget something? Zai Zai, I haven't seen Zai Zai appear for a long time.
Have you figured out that the Lord God can't do anything to her, he can only threaten her, and this threat may be difficult to complete?
The ending is full of flowers~~The story is very interesting, but the sudden appearance of the main god at the end feels a bit out of place, and it is a bit inconsistent with the previous main axis, but it doesn't matter~My wife is great~I was sick and uncomfortable, but I still worked hard to finish it~Thank you for your hard work
Although I knew it was a happy ending, the sudden change leading to the ending was something I didn't expect!
This ending was something I didn't expect
Bye bye, hope to see you soon next time
Is this article called the end? ? ? It would be great if a bunch of main plots are relegated to the sidelines.
After many years, I finally finished reading this book!
