I Became the Male Lead's Cannon Fodder Stepmother in a Period Novel

When Sun Qing wakes up one day, she has everything other people dream of their whole lives.

Money, a house, a car, an eldest son, and even a husband she got for a bargain: they're all ready-made.

She thought she could spend this life lounging around until the ending without having to work for it. Who knew she'd transmigrate into a period novel, becoming the second young stepmother who wronged the male lead and worked herself to death less than three years after getting married?

Sun Qing: There's no way I'm going to mess things up. Isn't making money seriously much better?

She casually renovates a house, and suddenly interior design is all the rage. A whole crowd of building-material suppliers show up with checks, begging Sun Qing to show them the way.

With nothing better to do, she takes a stroll along the river with a few wealthy ladies and buys several plots of land. In less than a month, their value has multiplied hundreds of times. The ladies weep and plead, bringing their entire fortunes and begging Sun Qing to help them strike it rich.

Buying properties and saving money everywhere, Sun Qing is so busy she can barely keep up, yet she waits and waits.

Why hasn't anyone come to take this old geezer off her hands yet?

One day, Jiang Huai blocks Sun Qing at her bedroom door, his gaze dangerous. “I hear someone often complains about me to other people?”

Sun Qing, terrified, shakes her head furiously: “It wasn't me! I didn't! Don't make things up!”
