Happily Becoming a Mom in the 1980S

When Shen Fen was twenty, she married Sheng Qianzhi, a man with a bright future ahead of him. Everyone envied Shen Fen for marrying into the Sheng family. Sheng Qianzhi came from a wealthy family and was already a regimental commander in the military, with a future full of promise. Shen Fen was a country bumpkin from the countryside. She'd really struck gold. But no one knew that after marrying Sheng Qianzhi, Shen Fen worked like a beast of burden every day, living worse than a servant. Her mother-in-law looked down on her humble origins. Her brother-in-law thought she was uneducated. Even Sheng Qianzhi barely spoke to her. What people knew even less was that on the day Sheng Qianzhi agreed to marry Shen Fen, he brought a baby with him. If she wanted to marry him, she had to accept his child. More than a decade passed before Shen Fen learned that she had only gotten the chance because Sheng Qianzhi's dream girl, Xia Wanrou, didn't want to become a mother to someone else's child. Sheng Qianzhi didn't love her. He just wanted someone to be the child's mother. * After being reborn, Shen Fen cares only about herself and her three children. There are so many things to do: seize business opportunities and make money, get the children's lives back on track, help her eldest son resolve his inner turmoil, help her second son achieve his dream, and let her youngest daughter grow up happily... Who has time to deal with a useless man? A few years later, Shen Fen has become an independent woman, with too many shops to count and children who have all grown into capable adults. Sheng Qianzhi: I've always loved you. Shen Fen: Ha. A friend's novel: "My Timid Mother Was Reborn" By Zhi You To outsiders, Qi You seems to have won at life. By a twist of fate, she married the sought-after Educated Youth Lu. Even after he got into college and returned to the city, he didn't forget to bring her and their children along. Her husband's family didn't look down on her for being from the countryside, either. They even arranged a job for her. Her husband was ambitious, and both their son and daughter were bright, getting into prestigious universities. Her in-laws were easygoing and never made life difficult for her. Who wouldn't say Qi You was lucky? But only Qi You knew the bitterness beneath it all. Her husband treated her with icy politeness. He'd married her out of a sense of responsibility, nothing more. Her in-laws ignored her, constantly and silently reminding her of the gulf between her and her husband. Even her own children were distant, like relatives from a far-off branch of the family. Her decades of devotion and attempts to please them had been nothing but a show of self-indulgence. When she opens her eyes, she's back in the past. Qi You decides she won't grovel to please her husband and in-laws anymore. As for her children, she looks down at the two little ones clinging to her. This time, she won't personally push them into her in-laws' arms. She can raise them well herself. She'll go to college and build a career, and never be anyone's accessory again.
