Latest Generational Saga Novel

A gritty everyday story set in the 1980s about family relationships and rebirth. Old Mrs. Zhao worked hard her whole life, raising four sons and three daughters. She supported her sons' education and marriages, helping them raise their own children. The income from her shop was often used by her eldest son's family, and she spent money to send her second son to study at a county restaurant as an apprentice. She cleaned up the messes of her twin third and fourth sons, and paid for her third son to marry the Li family's daughter. She spent a lot of money for her second daughter to study art and helped her third daughter go to college and develop in Shanghai. Once they were all doing well, they scorned their aging parents. When her husband needed a surgery costing twenty thousand, none of her children could gather the funds, unwilling to pay for his treatment, causing him to miss the surgical window and die at home. Her eldest son kicked her out of their town house and forced her to live in a thatched cottage in the mountains, telling her to fend for herself! Within two months, she died on a rainy night, and not a single one of them was willing to collect her body or even return for the funeral. She opened her eyes again and found herself back at fifty years old, on the day her eldest daughter, with whom she had cut ties, was getting married. At this time, she and her husband were still operating their peanut oil pressing shop, and their children were still dependent on them for support. Upon learning of her children's callousness, she angrily decided to cherish only her eldest daughter, who was the only one to arrange her funeral, and demanded household expenses from the other children! Reborn, Old Mrs. Zhao had no maternal love; in her previous life, she couldn't even count on her children to collect her body. In this life, she would live like a tyrant, riding on her children's heads to see the world. What would happen when she got old? If she enjoyed the latter half of her life, it would be normal for her to die when she was old and without her children’s support. Who would have thought that in her previous life, she worked herself to the bone, but her children didn't remember her kindness, while in this life, she was selfish, greedy, and heartless, disregarding her children's lives, and yet she lived more comfortably and her children became filial.
