What?! I Only Wanted to Raise a Child as a Widow in the 1980s, but My Dead Husband Came Back?

[Transmigrate into a Book] [Raising Kids] [Vicious Cannon Fodder] [The Male Lead May Be Late, but He Will Show Up (Both Are Pure)]

Yuan Man transmigrates into a vicious cannon fodder character in a novel set in a bygone era.

The original Yuan Man was lazy and greedy, abused her stepchildren, and squandered the family fortune before running away after her husband's death.

The abused stepson grows up to become a powerful underworld boss. Led astray by the heroine, he comes to hate the original Yuan Man and eventually tracks her down and tortures her to death.

As an overworked office drone, Yuan Man immediately knows what to do: cling to the boss's coattails and treat him like her superior!

The kids hate her? No problem! She'll draw on her workplace survival skills and slowly change their minds!

The kids are skin and bones? No problem! She'll start a business, stock up on grain and meat, and fatten them up!

People make fun of the kids? No problem! She'll build houses and get them into school. Kids without a father are just as good as anyone else!

The heroine wants to take the kids away? No problem! She's dealt with irritating coworkers before. Just watch her turn every trick aside!

After working herself to the bone, she watches the kids go from avoiding her like the plague to gradually snuggling up to her and never wanting to leave her side.

When the heroine tries to sow discord, the kids say, "Mommy would never hurt us. You're the bad woman!"

When the villagers gossip, they say, "Mommy is the best! Anyone who bullies her will have to deal with me!"

Yuan Man gets her wish and secures the boss's protection. Just as she's happily enjoying life as a widow and waiting for the kids to grow up into powerful men, her supposedly dead husband comes back alive!

As they whisper sweet nothings, Fu Jiandong says, "Manman, let's have a child of our own."
