Raising Kids on a 1970S Island

[Scroll down to see the next upcoming title, Pretty Mom Is Reborn] After being reborn, Jiang Yuhua only wants to do two things. First, slap the pretty-faced young educated youth who tried to trick her into going to the frontier. Then find the man who was her husband in her previous life, agree to their childhood betrothal, and rekindle their relationship. Song Xiujian thought that no one would want to marry him with three adopted children in tow, so he came back to break off his engagement with his childhood betrothed. To his surprise, the bright-smiling young woman, with her rosy lips and pearly teeth, saw him and firmly said she wanted to marry him. Song Xiujian narrowed his eyes. What was her motive? When word got around that Song Xiujian had brought a young woman in her early twenties back from his hometown, the army wives were worried sick! Could a country girl really get along with Xiao Song? The young woman looked delicate and pretty. Could she take good care of his adopted children? Before long, everyone realized just how wrong they'd been. A country girl? She could teach all the children on the island, and she was a proper university graduate! Delicate? She was delicate and pretty, all right, and Song Xiujian did all the housework. But when she cooked, all the children on the island begged her to keep going, and the army wives had to swallow their pride and come ask her to teach them. Spicy squid, poached shrimp, sizzling razor clams, raw marinated crab... Life on the island was dull, but Yuhua managed to fill it with color. Pretty Mom Is Reborn The night the news of her husband's death came back, Gu Meiling had a dream. In the dream, she was the disposable ex-wife in a story set in a bygone era. Her husband died a hero, and she abandoned their son and daughter, squandered the compensation money on a pretty-faced young man, then was cheated out of all her money and left destitute. Who would have thought her husband wasn't dead? When he returned and learned what she'd done, he divorced her on the spot and got together with her cousin. The book celebrated their perfect romance. No one cared about the discarded original wife or her two poor children, who went astray at such a young age. After waking up, Gu Meiling was still shaken. Forget that piece of trash of a husband. She'd set up a street stall, start a business, and raise her own kids herself. Anyone who wanted to be a disposable character could go ahead! Through countless nights on the battlefield, Lu Xian had relied on pictures of his wife and children to find the will to survive. He returned home covered in blood, only to hear the news one after another: "Commander, your wife has become a business tycoon. She's got a whole platoon of suitors following her around. She's going to ask you for a divorce." Lu Xian: ...So I'm the backup option now? Just a moment ago, Gu Meijuan was cursing her cousin Meiling for being so lucky. The next moment, she had transmigrated into the book she'd written, and she was overjoyed! According to the plot, she'd soon steal Meiling's husband and bully Meiling's kids. She couldn't be happier. But could someone explain why things weren't going the way she'd written them? Theme: Be delicate in appearance, but not in spirit. Heaven rewards hard work
