Working as a Maid in the Eighties

Please add my next book, After Becoming the Mother of the Female Lead in a Period Novel, to your collection.

Food connoisseur Chen Yun transmigrated into a book. The moment she arrived, the female lead, her older sister, pressured her to choose a job. But Chen Yun chose the chance to study.

"Little sister, you can't study! Have you even looked at your grades? But this job is just right for you. It's easy and pays well."

"Besides, Old Madam Chu is famous for being easy to get along with. Her grandson, Chu Qingyu, is handsome, too. You can't lose either way."

Chen Yun: ...Isn't he the male lead?

So Chen Yun packed her clothes that very night and moved out the next day.

When she arrived at the Chu household, she realized it was practically her dream job.

Old Madam Chu was tough on the outside but soft-hearted, and she loved good food.

Madam Chu was the typical pampered wife. If she spoke to anyone for more than three sentences, Father Chu would come and take her away. She was easy to serve and liked giving people jewelry.

Father Chu was a domineering CEO. Aside from not allowing Madam Chu to get too close to outsiders, he was very generous with money.

Miss Chu was a beautiful woman studying abroad, with a touch of obsessive-compulsive disorder. She was a classic top student.

Young Master Chu was a financial genius. Investing with him never meant losing money, and more importantly, he liked taking her along when he invested.

At the Chu household, Chen Yun was happy every day. Before she knew it, she'd achieved the dream she'd had in her previous life: becoming a researcher and a famous wealthy woman.

In her previous life, Chen Yin worked as a maid for the Chu family. Every day, she was either being made life difficult for and ordered around by Old Madam Chu, or being chased by her father for money. The people in the compound also looked down on her.

Her life was unbearably hard.

She thought things would get better once the Chu family returned. But after Old Madam Chu complained about her, she was fired and thrown out of the compound.

When she returned home, her father saw her in such a sorry state and sold her to a cripple for money. In the end, the cripple beat her to death.

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the moment when she had to choose between going to school and taking a job. Chen Yin decided to change her fate.

In her previous life, Chen Yun had chosen to study and eventually entered a research institute, where everyone admired her. This time, Chen Yin was going to become someone everyone admired, too.

But why did the old lady, who had made things difficult for her at every turn, treat Chen Yun like a treasure?

Why were the people in the compound, who were so hard to get along with, going out of their way to befriend Chen Yun and even offering her a fortune to work as their maid?

Meanwhile, Chen Yin couldn't study, and even the stock market had developed differently from how it had in her previous life.

After Becoming the Mother of the Female Supporting Character in a Period Novel

Chu Yingying was the tragic heroine of a domineering CEO novel. The CEO abused her physically and emotionally. After she ran away, her mother betrayed her whereabouts, leading to her kidney being removed, her blood being donated, and her death from massive blood loss.

After transmigrating into a book, Chu Qing became the tragic heroine's mother. Looking at the sweet, soft little girl in her arms, she decided to help her change her fate and take her to find her father.

Facing a handsome man who owned a detached villa, Chu Qing was just about to hand him the child.

But the man said outright, "Let's get married. You can spend the family's money however you like from now on."

Spend it however she liked? A fortune had just fallen from the sky!

Chu Qing immediately changed her mind. "Okay."

After they married,

Xie Zhihang was never around, whether day or night, and his company kept growing. You could see his face everywhere on the streets.

Chu Qing lived in luxury with her child, occasionally using stories of wealthy families to teach her daughter.

"Look at the third daughter of the Fang family. She could have lived in luxury, but instead she worked hard alongside your dad. In the end, didn't all the money end up in our hands anyway? Tell me, who's living a happier life, us or her?"

Xie Yingying: "Mommy's happy."

Chu Qing: "That's right, good girl. We mustn't be like her."

Chu Qing continued scrolling to the next post.

"And look at this second daughter of the Qin family. She was bullied at school but didn't tell her mother. Instead, she went off with delinquents. She could have lived in luxury, but chose to eat instant noodles and sleep in a rat-infested house. Does that sound comfortable?"

Xie Yingying: "Rats are so scary. Yingying doesn't want that."

"Good girl. We don't want that."

Seeing that her daughter had successfully left behind the mindset of a tragic heroine, Chu Qing felt deeply satisfied.

And seeing the money in her account made her even happier.

"Sigh, it's time to buy another courtyard house."

In her previous life, Chu Yingying died horribly. After being reborn, she looked at her mother holding her and immediately wanted to escape from her and take revenge.

She never expected that this time around, her mother would take her to find her father and even change her name. They moved into a house she could never have dreamed of owning in her previous life.

Xie Yingying thought: This must be one of her new tricks. She's using me to get close to my rich father. I have to tell him. But Dad isn't home very often.

So Xie Yingying could only play along.

Until the man who had hurt her in her previous life was kicked flying by her mother.

Xie Yingying stared in disbelief. "Is this really my frail mother, who can't even take care of herself?"

Chu Qing dusted off her hands without a care. "Daughter, this is how you deal with men like him. Don't worry, your dad will take care of everything."
