I'm Done Being the Unlucky Stepmother in The 1970s

In the early hours of the morning, Zheng Shan read a story about a stepmother raising children, whose heroine had the same name as her. She got so worked up that she fainted.

When she woke up, she found herself inside the novel I’m a Stepmother in the Seventies, as its heroine.

She had to raise five children, none of them her own. Her scumbag husband ran off, leaving her to toil like an ox for the rest of her life. She even cared for her cruel stepmother-in-law until the old woman died... After a lifetime of hard work, all she got was a house with a blue-tiled roof, and it was only when she was on her deathbed that her stepson finally called her “Mom.”

Zheng Shan gave a dry laugh. “Tricking someone into marrying a widower is asking for divine retribution. Telling someone to become a stepmother is wishing them a miserable death.”

Zheng Shan wasn’t some clueless, naive girl. She had plenty of ways to get what she wanted. Whoever wanted this miserable life could have it. She was going to college, set up a street stall, open a factory, and go on TV... This was the best of times, and Zheng Shan had so much more she could do!
