In his previous life, Zhou Mingyuan was a notorious loafer in Zhoujiawa.
He drank, played cards, blindly obeyed his parents, and was stubborn. He watched his older brother and sister-in-law snatch his wife’s money from her again and again, watched her go from a capable woman who could sew and keep accounts to a lamp whose light had gone out. Worse still, she suffered a difficult labor and massive bleeding while giving birth, and neither she nor their daughter survived.
Zhou Mingyuan regretted it so deeply he could have kicked himself. At last, he turned over a new leaf and used his sewing machine repair skills to open an appliance repair shop.
Decades later, he even built it into one of the country’s leading home appliance brands, but it could never make up for his regrets.
Luckily, Heaven took pity on him and sent him back to 1986.
Back to the year when his wife was still willing to leave a light on for him.
In this life, Zhou Mingyuan wanted nothing but to repay her for all she had been deprived of over half a lifetime! She wanted a sewing machine of her own? He’d get her one! She wanted a ledger no one could take away? He’d give it to her! She wanted a home where no one could bully her and where she could make her own decisions? He’d work himself to the bone to build it for her!
As for those who stole her money, envied her, or gossiped about her, anyone who dared touch even a thread of his wife’s belongings would pay it all back, with interest!
