He Faked My Salary for Ten Years: The 1970s Educated Youth Is Done with Him

[Strong Female Lead Building Her Career, Feel-Good Rebirth Story Set in a Bygone Era, No Forgiveness, No Turning Back, Third-Person Narration]

My husband lied to me about his wages for ten years!

He'd caught the wave of economic reform and made a fortune in business.

But he claimed he was working away from home for a monthly wage of just 30 yuan.

Everyone praised my husband for being hardworking.

He handed over every penny he earned to support the family.

I was glad I'd married a good man.

Even though he worked away from home year-round and rarely came back,

I did my best to care for the whole family.

I was too afraid to go to the hospital when I got sick. I even sold my blood to help make ends meet.

But my mother-in-law still pointed at me and cursed:

"You good-for-nothing woman! My son gives you every penny he earns, and you haven't saved a single cent."

Only later did I learn my husband had been lying about his wages all along. He'd started a new family with his first love.

He bought her a car and a mansion, and spent a year's worth of household expenses on a single meal.

Everyone in the family knew my husband had become rich, except me and my daughter.

I contracted AIDS from selling my blood. My family shunned me, saying I must have been promiscuous to catch such a filthy disease.

After they threw me out, I froze and fell ill on the street, where no one cared...

After I died, I saw my husband move into a mansion with his family and his first love,

and marry my daughter off to a 40-year-old widower!

When I opened my eyes again, I was reborn on the day the scumbag sent money home for the first time.
