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.

Mrs. Zhang tearfully recounted how Xu Si dragged Gu Xiaocao into the haystack, how Gu Xiaocao resisted, how Yan Pozi reversed the accusations and ruined Gu Xiaocao's reputation, and how their family was driven to live outside the village...


"It's not just my Xiaocao; many young wives and girls in the village have been harassed by Xu Si. Anyway, Xiaocao's reputation is already ruined, and since it is, I want to seek justice for her. Lord Liu, you see clearly that Xu Si is a beast... his root was broken today, and Sister-in-law Tong acted for the people by removing the pest... I ask you not to punish Sister-in-law Tong."
