Reborn in the 1980S: The Old Lady Starts by Slapping the Ungrateful Wolf

[An old woman reborn + everyday life in the hutongs + getting rich + passing down the family legacy] Qian Yulian was famous for playing favorites. All five children were her own, yet she spoiled her three sons rotten, even draining the family savings to buy them houses and wives. But she forced her two daughters to marry lame men for bride-price money, condemning them to lives of hardship. And what did she get in return? When she grew old and needed someone to care for her, her sons finally showed their true colors. She lived in their homes, enduring their scorn and eating their leftovers. One by one, her sons wished she would hurry up and die, and they even tried to steal the money meant to save her life. At death’s door, she finally regretted it. Her three sons were ungrateful wolves who could never be tamed! The daughters she had always looked down on were the ones who truly cared for her. When she opened her eyes again, Qian Yulian was back in 1979, an era when the winds of reform were sweeping the land. Her family soon noticed that their mother, once biased toward her sons and easily swayed by others, had suddenly changed. A vile daughter-in-law? Throw her out! An ungrateful son? Stay away! Using the knowledge she had gained in her previous life, Qian Yulian seized every opportunity. She bought courtyard houses, grew watermelons in greenhouses, opened a restaurant, and met benefactors… In an era where gold seemed to lie everywhere, she thrived! Her three sons made a complete mess of their lives and cried out in regret, “Mom, we were wrong! Come back! We can’t manage without you!”
