Tong Huaqiong transmigrated to ancient times into the body of the malicious widow Tong Dajiao and witnessed the execution scene where the malicious widow and her children were wiped out. She returned to the year Tong Dajiao had just become a widow.

At the age of forty, she was already a grandmother, embodying the roles of both a wicked stepmother and mother-in-law. Naturally, the children she raised were bad bamboo shoots.

The only slight comfort she felt was that, as a widow, she didn't have to serve an old husband.

In this transmigration story, she lacked all the golden fingers like systems or noble birth.

She didn't even have the chance to rise through marriage. Who could a widow marry? Especially with a bunch of burdens.

She could only rely on herself and her bunch of bad bamboos at home.

Revitalize the family reputation, correct the children's behavior.

Treat stepchildren, daughters-in-law, and granddaughters kindly, dismiss the plan of her youngest son to sell his granddaughter to a wealthy family in exchange for tuition fees, force the youngest son to strive through education on his own, use a stick to awaken the second son from being lazy and spoiled to becoming the family's backbone, and rid the youngest daughter of laziness, greed, and love-brain.

Reclaim wasteland and plant crops using modern scientific knowledge, turning saline-alkali land into fertile fields, leading the whole family towards a moderately prosperous life; start a business from street vending, selling steamed buns, pastries, marinated dishes, raising pigs, beekeeping... gradually expanding their commercial territory.

Gu Ruinian quickly glanced at Wu Na after opening his eyes.


He wasn't confused; he just had bad luck.


Wu Na's words brought Gu Ruinian back to the day of the incident, when he was forced to admit to a tryst with Xu Zaohua under the threat of the Lian Family.


The only thing that gave him some comfort was that he pinned the blame for the vase incident on Xu Zaohua, when the Second Young Master of the Lian Family got knocked out.


Seeing no answer from Gu Ruinian, Wu Na said, "Is Xu Zaohua really that good? Am I really not as good as a widow?"


Wu Na leaned in and stared intently at Gu Ruinian.


If Gu Ruinian had taken a liking to the Second Miss of the Lian Family, she wouldn't be so upset, but instead, he had eyes for the widow Xu Zaohua.


Gu Ruinian knew her feelings and did not reject her.


She even almost fell out with her father over refusing to marry out of the county for Gu Ruinian.
