[Advance interest: The Empress's Promotion, a farming and household-intrigue story. Please add it to your favorites!]
Story blurb: In her previous life, Wanching's mother said, “Getting married is a woman's second rebirth.”
Wanching's father said, “For a girl, all that matters is marrying a good husband.”
All right, Wanching clenched her fists. I'll marry into a good family!
After she got married, her mother-in-law said, “The most important thing is raising the next generation. Here, I've signed your son up for more than ten tutoring classes. Make sure you take him to and from them on time.”
Her son: “Waaah, Mom, I can't take it anymore! Can I stop taking so many classes?”
Her husband: an invisible man. Don't @ him.
Ten years later, Wanching's career had gone nowhere, she'd failed to raise her son well, and she had no say in the household. Only then did she finally understand: mountains crumble when you rely on them, and water runs dry when you depend on it. Relying on yourself is the only way forward!
In this life, Wanching no longer wants to snag a rich husband. She just wants to quietly build a small business of her own.
Who knew that casually writing little articles and taking a few pictures would make her a major influencer with millions of followers?
And that a bit of small-scale personal shopping would turn into an official flagship store?
As for her son, she stops sending him to all sorts of random tutoring classes and lets him have a happy childhood.
The result? His report card is ridiculously good!
Wanching's mother: “Actually, things are pretty good this way.”
Wanching's father: “Do whatever you want. Your family will always have your back!”
Wanching: So this is what life is like when you're capable! Having a say feels amazing!

Theme: Women should be self-reliant
The author did not take into account a problem. The owner of the host's account belongs to the studio or company rather than to the host personally. If it is transferred to an individual, one person will be popular and one will be lost.
After reading it all in one go, I feel like I still have more to learn.
I always feel like it's over before I finish writing.
It feels like it's only halfway through, and the kids haven't grown up yet. Why did it end?
I really hope that my mother will leave me alone at work. I want to see more clips of grandparents and grandchildren.
Why did Wan Qing's grandparents give up moving to her house when they moved to Lincheng?
I feel like he is a talented person who single-handedly develops business for the sake of business. I particularly admire this kind of person.
It's so good. I read it in one sitting. It could have been written at a normal pace. It's such a pity. The writing on this subject is really great.
