Meng Qin worked diligently, but in middle age she was forced into early retirement. She had waited six months for a government-funded study-abroad spot, only to lose it to a newly assigned college graduate because her education level was too low.
When she got home, she found a divorce agreement on the coffee table.
Her vision went dark, and Meng Qin was reborn in the early days of her marriage.
Thinking of the next twenty or thirty years, being worked like an ox by her in-laws and her husband's younger brother, she shot a sideways glance at the man grinning foolishly beside the bed.
Their eyes met, and to Meng Qin's surprise, she heard her husband's thoughts.
[My wife was so pretty when she was young.]
[If I were young again, I wouldn't need to get divorced!]
Meng Qin stared at the man whose lips hadn't moved. ?
Had he been reborn too?
[Reading notes]
Both are reborn. They stay with the same partners. A slice-of-life story.
Coming soon: My Four Villain Sons-in-Law [The 1990s]
Old Wang woke up one morning and found she had transmigrated into a book.
She had gone straight from a young woman to a middle-aged wealthy widow with a daughter, skipping dating and marriage entirely.
The good news: Her family was rich, and she had four devoted daughters without having to give birth.
The bad news: All four of her sons-in-law were villains!
The eldest son-in-law was a lunatic, the second a pervert, the third a rotten bastard, and the fourth a yandere.
Yet they all treated the female lead as their one true love, going mad for her and taking all the blame upon themselves.
The good news: Except for the eldest daughter, the other three weren't married yet! They could be saved.
The bad news: She was about to marry the male lead!
Old Wang: I'm done for.
How am I supposed to enjoy my retirement like this!
Male lead: Marry me, and the female lead will call you Mom.
After being reborn, Mingzhu decided to find someone to help ruin her adoptive father's wedding, then confess to him while she had the chance, so they wouldn't be separated by life and death again.
She sought out her future stepmother's eldest son-in-law. He was the neighbor boy who had doted on her most when they were children. In her past life, he married a woman he didn't love and became nothing but a money-making machine.
Mingzhu: "Big Brother, I'll help you get divorced. All you have to do is..."
Eldest son-in-law: "Get out of the way. I'm busy making it rain and buying my wife a fur coat."
Mingzhu: "?"
Mingzhu then sought out her stepmother's second son-in-law, the handsome senior who often helped her at school. In her past life, he had been forced into an arranged marriage for the sake of his family. Even after making a name for himself, he never smiled again.
Mingzhu: "Senior, I can help you break off your engagement. All you have to do is..."
Second son-in-law: "Trying to steal my fiancée? I'll slit your throat."
Mingzhu: "?"
Next, Mingzhu went looking for her stepmother's third son-in-law, who was still a hooligan. He was the vibrant young man she had rescued on a rainy night, and he would become her most loyal friend.
She went to their old meeting place and spent the night crouched under the eaves in the rain.
Mingzhu: Where's the injured guy!
Third son-in-law: Where else? He's on a date with his girlfriend, obviously.
Mingzhu refused to give up and finally went looking for her stepmother's fourth son-in-law, who had been kidnapped. She would save him, earn his family's gratitude, and become his best business partner.
She found the kidnapped child and stood up to the kidnappers with a shout.
In the end, she was tied up, gagged, and sold into the mountains.
After she was rescued, Mingzhu rushed to her adoptive father's wedding, only to be stopped at the entrance and forced to watch him put a ring on someone else's finger.
Why?!
She had been reborn, after all!
Theme: Never stop striving
I can only say that the male protagonist did something quite wrong.
A little reluctant to give up, finish with flowers?
I'm afraid this male protagonist is sick.
Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in, Punch in
Being impatient, I'd better wait until it's over before watching it.
It's really well written in big letters. People are inherently flawed. Before it comes to an end, why did the life experience of the male protagonist and female protagonist in the previous life be very different from the current one? I really like this kind of flesh-and-blood characters.
This female protagonist and male protagonist are really enough, even after being bullied, they still don't take it out
You are already a graduate student, why do you still have time to open a restaurant and work as a chef? A graduate student at Peking University is so free
My child? Child? Yuanxiao's actions are faster than his brain, hahahahaha.
Even those who study chemistry can't figure out what metal has chickens, even though I'm just a bad student
