The Eldest Sister-in-Law Won't Put Up with It Anymore [1980S]

[Seeking Bookmarks for Upcoming Story: A Team of Espers Gathers to Gossip and Watch the Show in a Period Novel] Jiang Nan woke up to find herself transmigrated into a melodramatic period drama as the hapless eldest sister-in-law. In the original story, she refused to raise the heroine's children for free and was condemned as heartless. She wanted to save her money to start a business and wouldn't lend it to the heroine, so she was called stingy. She didn't want to invest her house-buying fund in the heroine's schemes, so she was mocked as short-sighted... The heroine's whole family had been leeching off her for her entire life, ruining her chances to get ahead time and again and leaving her to live an ordinary, unremarkable life. In the end, her son resented her for being a woman and not earning as much as his aunt. Her in-laws thought she wasn't good enough for her husband. She ended up divorced, leaving town on the day her husband married his one true love, and living out her days alone... But things will be different now that Jiang Nan is here. She won't be a doormat, and she won't be the eldest sister-in-law anymore! Divorce, the college entrance exam, building up capital... Jiang Nan carries out her retirement plan step by step. Along the way, she meets a man with the same ambitions as her. Then she realizes this melodrama seems to be part of a series... Zhao Rui never imagined that, despite giving his son a father's love and a sense of security, and working himself to the bone to provide him with the best life possible, none of it could compare in his son's eyes to his mother, who had abandoned her husband and child, or to his scheming girlfriend. If that's how it is, then in this reborn life, he doesn't want to work himself to the bone anymore. As long as he has enough money, that's fine. His goal is now to grow old comfortably alongside his mother. As for his son, he raised him with all his heart in his last life and he still turned out that way, so this time he'll just fulfill his duties as a father. He didn't expect his ex-wife to be reborn too, and to set her sights on getting back together. Zhao Rui thinks it's ridiculous. Then again, he was pretty ridiculous himself, never remarrying in his last life for the sake of that ungrateful brat. So he agrees to go on a blind date at his mother's urging, and meets an interesting woman... Theme: Work hard, then enjoy a fulfilling retirement
