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.

On the morning of New Year's Day, Tong Huaqiong's generous rewards brought the festivities to a close.


The whole first month is busy with little rest—hosting dinners for the clerks at the shop, visiting the Min Family, Lin Family, Yao Family, and other friends to drink and watch plays, preparing wedding items for Gu Taohua...


Fortunately, Tong Huaqiong is not fighting alone; Gu Baishuang, Gu Dashi, and Gu Taohua are holding down the shop, while Chen Sufen and Liu Yueer are busy at home.


Others like Mrs. Hong, Tong Pandi, Su Qing, and Mrs. Zhao pitch in to help.


"Sister-in-law, is there anything else at home? You can ask me to do it." Gu Honglian sidled up to Tong Huaqiong, volunteering.


Tong Huaqiong answered, "For now, there isn't anything you need to do. You and your husband should take a good rest for a few days. Once the first month is over, you can look for something to do outside."
