Check out my completed novel, Raising Kids on the Frontier with My Transmigrated General Husband [The 1970s]. My new novel, After I Was Widowed, My Dead Husband Came Back [The 1960s], is now available. Coming soon: Transmigrating into a Republican-Era Tycoon's Villainous Stepmother and The Fake Heiress Becomes a Spoiled Little Wife on an Island [The 1960s]. Synopsis: A little family drama, some fun with the kids, and a sweet romance. At twenty-eight, Su Manqing won an Academy Award. She was beautiful, with a great figure, and could play any role, from an elegant queen to a country girl. Then she transmigrated into a book. She became the male lead's ill-fated blind date, a minor character in a period novel. An early death? Not happening. A minor character? No way. With my acting skills, who wouldn't fall at my feet? My acting skills, that is. With her phenomenal acting, Su Manqing not only won the respect and affection of her three stepsons, all future big shots, but also turned the famously macho male lead into putty in her hands. Danger? Mom is so delicate! The three stepsons charge to the front. Errands? Mom is so delicate! The three stepsons compete to help, afraid she'll get hurt. Studying? If anyone dares call Mom a helpless vine, the three boys decide to work their own kids to the bone! Decades later, when they have made their names, the children give a speech onstage: "We want to thank Mom for raising us with such care. Without Mom, we would never have achieved what we have. Half of our honors belong to her..." Looking at her handsome, strapping boys, Su Manqing smiles and takes no credit for her accomplishments. Coming soon: Transmigrating into a Republican-Era Tycoon's Villainous Stepmother Lu Yunman transmigrates into a period novel and becomes a mother overnight. Her stepson is sixteen, an adult by the standards of the Republican era, old enough to marry and have children. On the first day after she arrives, Lu Yunman's husband dies. It was a marriage arranged between political and business families, with no affection between them. Dead is dead. Lu Yunman isn't sad at all. She gets ready and, despite everyone's objections, marries while clutching her husband's memorial tablet. It's not that she wants to be a stepmother. It's just that times are too hard. Lots of bloggers in later generations say the Republican era was the most romantic time, when women looked breathtaking in qipaos. That's all nonsense. Anyone who has seriously studied history knows how miserable life in that era really was for women. Lu Yunman doesn't want her family to use her or turn her into a commodity, and she doesn't want to struggle to get enough to eat. So she decides to find a powerful ally. Compared to a miserable marriage and a stable life, living with dignity matters more. Four years later, her stepson, dressed in military uniform, hands Lu Yunman a divorce letter, his eyes burning as he says, "The three obediences and four virtues are shackles imposed on women. I hope you can pursue your own happiness." Lu Yunman, the woman he's got his eye on: "..." What a high-minded excuse! (Neither lead is a good person in the traditional sense, but they have their limits. The blurb may be revised when the novel is posted.) Coming soon: The Fake Heiress Becomes a Spoiled Little Wife on an Island [The 1960s] When Wang Manyun arrives, the real heiress has just returned. The wealthy family sends her packing, and her fiance abandons her. Wang Manyun packs up and leaves the mansion everyone envies without taking a thing. She heads off to an island with a tall, fierce, cold, and poor man to join the military. Everyone thinks she got the better end of the deal with the rich family. But getting an advantage isn't so easy. Her so-called mother is a real handful. At first, when she gets pregnant, she is filled with happiness and looks forward to the birth of her and her husband's child. But as time passes and she enters the final stage of pregnancy, the ugly stretch marks, rising weight, changing figure, and everything else make her hate the unborn child. After the baby is born, whenever things don't go her way, she tells the child how much she sacrificed and how difficult it was for her, tormenting the child in every way. Wang Manyun knows the story, so she won't put up with that self-centered mother. The wealthy family has nothing to do with her. Let them do whatever they want! The plastic-friendship girls in the capital see Wang Manyun in trouble. They act sympathetic but secretly rejoice. What's the point of being pretty? She's still a flower stuck in a pile of manure, and a man that fierce must beat his wife. Wang Manyun doesn't turn into a frumpy old woman, and she isn't beaten. Instead, she grows more radiant. When she glares at her fierce husband with her big, sparkling eyes, he immediately crouches down and does whatever she wants. Meanwhile, the reborn real heiress is left looking gaunt and sallow in the wealthy household, with lifeless eyes. The two heiresses become a stark contrast. Wang Manyun, on the other hand, has all the fresh seafood she can eat on the island. During a natural disaster, everyone in the capital tightens their belts, while she complains that one lobster isn't big enough and one sea cucumber isn't fat enough, living a "luxurious" life where all she has to do is hold out her hand for food and clothes... Coming soon: Raising Kids on the Frontier with My Transmigrated General Husband [The 1970s] When Qin Qingman wakes up, she has not only arrived in the material-scarce 1970s, but has nothing at all. Her wooden house is full of drafts, and the world outside is buried in snow. Looking at her five-year-old little brother crying so weakly he sounds like a kitten, she sincerely hopes this is all a dream. Starving, she goes up the mountain to dig for wild greens and runs into a wild boar looking for food. Just as she thinks her time is up, a figure appears beside her and crushes the boar's skull with one punch. It weighs hundreds of pounds. "Comrade Qin, marry me." The taciturn man drags the boar over to her. Looking at the tall, powerful man, then at the bloodied boar, Qin Qingman shamefully gives in. There's meat to eat. I'll marry him! Coming soon: After I Was Widowed, My Dead Husband Came Back [The 1960s] Widows always have trouble at their door. Song Jingchu is unlucky enough to transmigrate into a book as a beautiful widow, and people secretly spread all kinds of rumors about her. Song Jingchu isn't the type to hold back. Her fiery personality matches her looks. She plants her hands on her hips and scolds everyone in the courtyard for three days. After that, no one dares bother her, and the gossip disappears without a trace. Song Jingchu leaves them with a parting shot: "A bitch is just being dramatic." Then she goes home. Just as she and the children have built a thriving life together, her supposedly dead husband comes back. He is tall and handsome, with a cold aura and an air of restraint. That night, Song Jingchu bites a little handkerchief furiously under the covers. Weren't you supposed to be cold and clueless about romance? Weren't you supposed to be the restrained type? Weren't you supposed to be impotent?! "Where did the children come from?" the man asks, pinning Song Jingchu against the wall with an amused look. Song Jingchu swallows and cheekily replies, "I had them with another man." Man: ... You've got some nerve! Theme: Kindness and good hearts make for a harmonious society.
