I Became a Widow, and Everyone Wants to Marry Me

[The deceased husband has no real relationship with the heroine. The male lead is someone else.]

You transmigrate and find your husband dead from the start, with a huge inheritance thrown in. Tell me, how great is that?

But if it happens in a wasteland after a great cataclysm, the inheritance left by your "late husband" could be deadly, whether it's a house or servants. Lying flat and living like a lazy fish won't be easy.

Hard or not, it's worth a try. She hangs a sign on the door: "Rooms for rent, antiques repaired."

Ethan, the captain of the strongest exploration team, a perennial top-ranked group that ventures into all kinds of contaminated zones, comes before her with a rare relic from the Old World in his hands and asks her to marry him.

She repairs it and gives it back, charging 200 gold coins.

Richard, the son of a merchant whose wealth rivals that of a nation, travels between the Federation and the Empire. He falls for her after spending so much time with her, and pretends to be a poor young man so he can rent a room there.

She treats everyone equally: an ordinary single room costs 800 gold coins a month. Bring your own furniture and pay your own utilities. Cleaning and shared meals cost extra.

The eldest son of the Qilan Empress, who claims to have inherited the legacy of Old World civilization, is Meng Xuyu, a peerless beauty. He dismisses all the beautiful women around him and becomes chaste, visiting her time and time again and promising her the future throne as empress.

Not here to get something repaired or rent a room? Then she'll just have to charge him for tea.

The heroine being pursued: Are these people out of their minds? With their status, they could just take what they want. Why pretend to be lovesick?

She thought she was just an ordinary widow, but others believe she is the incarnation of a god from prophecy. Countless people want to marry her to obtain the true legacy of the Old World and revive civilization.

The legacy she inherited is powerful, but she is even more so.

[Reading Guide]:

1. The setting is a parallel universe, an era after a great cataclysm in which various factions have carved up the wasteland. There is a Federation and an Empire. This is a fictional future wasteland setting, so please don't map it onto reality.

2. Technology has regressed, and relics from the Old World have become inscrutable. Besides ordinary people, there are cyborgs with implants, mutants, and watchers.

3. The deceased husband has no real relationship with the heroine. The male lead is someone else.

4. Plot-driven, with a makeshift romance storyline. Please bear with it.
