Then a car accident sent her into the body of a wealthy old lady. Designated driver Xiao Li: That was a bit too much of a leap. The original owner had sacrificed her own family to support her husband's family, and at the end of her life, all she got was a bowl of poison. She struggled: Wait, I must have opened this the wrong way. Given another chance, she was done with it. She went straight to giving up. The clan made a fuss: Split up the family. Everyone can fend for themselves. She: Fine. I'm tired. A wicked servant cursed her: You're nothing but a widow. She: Give it a rest. Someone like you won't last three chapters. An ungrateful descendant: You're only a second wife. What gives you the right... She: I'm your ancestor. Get down and take your beating! She beat her rebellious sons into submission, starting by breaking their legs. Both Buddhist and ruthless. And so she began a happy retirement, with money, power, and a dead husband. She grew flowers, raised children, cuddled cats, and taught her rebellious sons to behave. Her life was simple, uneventful, and wealthy. Soon, Lady Jiang's reputation as the "Rebellious Sons' Worst Nightmare" spread throughout the land. The old emperor was driven out of the palace by several rebellious sons and ended up at her country estate. She handed him her calling card: On-demand beatings. Interested? Wherever they're unfilial, that's where we'll strike. Dad and Mom never need to worry about their rebellious sons again! Later, thanks to her contributions to the founding of the new dynasty, she was granted an official title, and her household was harmonious and prosperous, with abundant farmland. Her filial children and grandchildren were all promoted to high office, and her life was glorious and carefree! Her rebellious sons wept in regret: Lady Dowager, Ancestress, we were wrong. Please let us cling to your coattails. Someone interviewed the youngest Lady Dowager in the history of Zheng: How do you manage to have two top-ranked scholars and three third-place scholars in one family? She smiled, brushed off her sleeves, and left. Her achievements remained unspoken. 2 The whole city was trying to find a match for the Dowager Lady of the Jiang clan. A certain man looked himself over and sent someone to ask around. His colleague's wife first spat out: Men are all worthless. None of them deserve my dear friend! After a pause, she sighed languidly: If you were ten or eight years younger, maybe we could talk. The worthless man panicked and personally came to block her way, eyes red at the corners: Young men aren't reliable. They say older men are better. Pick me! Please. A general-king barely into his thirties, humbly begging for her hand in marriage.jpg *Reading Guide: The heroine is reborn into the original owner's life when the original owner is thirty and widowed. Before transmigrating, she was a peony, a true pain-free instant mom. The male lead is three years younger than the heroine. An older woman-younger man romance. The retirement and career storyline comes first; the romance will be as sweet as possible. 3. Here's another upcoming novel, plus a hilarious chase-your-wife-to-the-crematorium story coming soon. When Yan Niang came of age, her parents planned to find her a live-in son-in-law. At a glance, she chose the best-looking man in the village, Xie Anchen. For several years after they married, she worked the fields and farmed silkworms to support his studies. Good news: He passed the exams. Bad news: She died. The three great joys in a typical scumbag's life: Passing the imperial exams, meeting an old flame in another land, and getting promoted and rich after his first wife dies. Even heaven couldn't stand it, so it sent her back to the eve of the palace examinations. Given another chance, she thought: Damn it, raising a man is worse than raising pigs. She divorced him without hesitation and returned home with a hefty settlement. She launched her pig-raising business and became an unremarkable little genius at farming. Good news: The fields she sowed on a whim yielded a thousand catties per mu, and her sows could not only climb trees but also give birth to piglets. Every melon she grew seemed to come to repay her kindness, and even locusts flew around her farmland. She also grew a high-yield new crop that saved people from famine and was granted the title of county princess. True: With no man in her heart, farming comes naturally. Bad news: Strange things happened. Her ex-husband gave up being a perfectly good corrupt official and insisted on following her, eager to be her ox and horse. He picked corn, dug sweet potatoes, caught river shrimp, cut pigweed... and did all the housework, too. 2 When they married, Xie Anchen, whose family had fallen on hard times but whose ambitions remained high, had already made up his mind: The Yan family had given him a new lease on life, so he could give her a title as his wife, but she could expect nothing else. She was just a village woman, and she was beneath him. He had a little conscience, but not much. She proposed a divorce. He was aloof and self-controlled, steadfast in his principles, and fiercely protective of his public image. His response: There is no divorce, only widowhood. On the day the results were posted, the people hoping to catch him as a husband fought like mad beneath the notice board. She seized the opportunity to hold a public auction among the noble ladies of the capital and "sold" him for a fine price. On the first day after their divorce, he thought: ...Fine, divorce me, then. Don't come begging to return. On the tenth day: Has my wife regretted it? Ha, what? My wife has gone off to raise pigs? On the hundredth day: Ahem, um, do you need help raising pigs? Could I come help? On the two hundred and fiftieth day: Wife, look at me! Don't only look at the pigs! Am I not better-looking than they are? Before long, his Complete Guide to Postpartum Care for Sows became a bestseller in bookstores everywhere. A young imperial scholar in his early twenties had unexpectedly resigned and refused to take up office. His fellow graduates asked him, clasping his hands: "Scholar Xie, what happened to you?"
