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.

Lu Zhaoyang coughed anxiously on the side.


He was afraid that Gu Taohua would agree, and he wouldn't know how to handle it.


The next second, Mr. Lu was left speechless.


Gu Taohua said, "Grandpa Lu, you think I'm good, but I think I'm even better than you imagine."


Tong Huaqiong chuckled to herself, thinking that Gu Taohua, raised by Tong Dajiao and her, might be the most confident girl in all of Ning City.


Gu Taohua glanced at Tong Huaqiong, then continued, "Grandpa Lu, you think I'm suitable to marry into the Lu family, but that's just your opinion. Marriage isn't like pairing livestock, where height, weight, and age match is enough. Marriage is about whether I like the person or not."


Gu Taohua looked at Lu Zhaoyang and said, "I don't like Brother Zhao Yang."


Mr. Lu asked incredulously, "What's wrong with my grandson?"
