The Wicked Mother-in-Law in a Tearjerker Period Drama

Shen Peilin was a plant-type ability user barely scraping by in the apocalypse.

She opens and closes her eyes, and transmigrates. There is food stored at home, everything outside is lush and green, and the whole world is her pantry.

Shen Peilin picks wild greens, hunts game, gathers wild fruit, and lives like a carefree immortal.

"Mother, you have to stand up for Honglian!"

With a bang, the heroine of a tragic melodrama falls to her knees before her, knocking her head against the floor three times until blood runs freely.

Thinking zombies have attacked, Shen Peilin kicks her away, interrupting her tragic melodrama performance.

The good news: Shen Peilin has transmigrated to the 1970s. There are no zombies, and plenty of food.

The bad news: This is a melodramatic story about virtuous women. The three daughters-in-law are the leads, and she's the evil mother-in-law.

The eldest son is a phoenix man. He rises to success, abandons his wife and child, and leaves his eldest daughter-in-law to stay with his parents and raise the child.

The second son is a wife-beater, a coward outside the home who beats his wife inside it. His wife meekly puts up with everything.

The third daughter is love-struck. She drains her parents' resources to support her scummy boyfriend, sacrificing herself to provide for his family.

The fourth son is a little fool who can only call out for his mother. He's been given a child bride who was picked up off the street.

The women and their children suffer for most of their lives. The scummy men return to the family in old age, worn out and useless, and the tragic heroines open their arms to embrace a new life. Somehow, it even gets a happy ending.

Shen Peilin: Zombies aren't as disgusting as this family.

She takes some time to clean house, punches her selfish eldest son, kicks her spineless second son, and sets her little fool straight.

With her eldest grandson on her left and granddaughter on her right, she rents fields, land, and a reservoir, then becomes a major landowner.

She lives in a grand country home and eats delicacies from land and sea. Before long, her business has spread all over the world.

Blurb:

Huo Lin transmigrates into a book. His eldest brother is the male lead of a historical novel, destined to become a marquis and a high-ranking official.

His family is wealthy, his brother has power, his grandmother dotes on him, and his mother loves him.

Huo Lin decides to lie flat and cling to his brother. His elder brother can build his career, while he eats, drinks, and has fun.

Unexpectedly, the historical novel ends badly, and the Huo family takes a sudden turn for the worse.

The male lead, his elder brother, is imprisoned for a crime, and the family is threatened with collective punishment.

Looking at his grandmother and mother, both of them sobbing unconscious, his white-haired father, and his helpless younger siblings, Huo Lin has no choice but to roll up his sleeves and get to work.

And he keeps at it until he holds power over the entire court.

The first time his elder brother is imprisoned, Huo Lin turns the tide and gets him out.

Elder brother: "I will never let down the deep love my younger brother has shown me."

The second time his elder brother is imprisoned, Huo Lin turns the tables against all odds and gets him out.

Elder brother: "Trust me, little brother. I swear by Heaven and my beloved brother that I won't let you down."

Then there's a third time, a fourth time, a fifth time...

Huo Lin: "Heaven is about to entrust my brother with a great task. He's the male lead."

Huo Lin: "My brother is the chosen one. Every time he falls, it's so he can rise faster, higher, and better."

Huo Lin: "The day my brother rises to prominence is the day I win by doing nothing."

Huo Lin: "Where's my brother? My big brother, the one who's supposed to become prime minister and hold power over the court?"

When he was young:

Father Huo: "This son of ours is a lost cause. We'd better have another one soon."

Mother Huo: "I have a generous dowry. Lin'er can live off it for the rest of his life."

Everyone else: "The Huo family ancestral graves have run out of smoke. They've produced a wastrel."

Elder brother: "My little brother can do whatever he wants. If he wants to lie flat, I'll support him."

Huo Lin: "You don't understand the joy of lying flat. Big Brother, I love you."

Who could have imagined:

Father Huo: "Our Lin'er is my beloved son."

Mother Huo: "I knew I was good at having children."

Everyone else: "The Huo family ancestral graves are belching smoke."

Elder brother: "Little brother, get me out."

Huo Lin: "Big Brother, try a little harder."
