1960s: I'm the Villainous Sister-in-law

Huang Qinquian, as her name implies, was expected by her parents to grow up diligent, becoming a hardworking person.

But reality often differs from expectations. Among Huang's family's three siblings, her parents and two brothers were all hardworking, only Huang, who was famously lazy throughout the village.

Yet, the Huang family of four didn't seem to mind, believing that a girl needed not do much work and was worth spending money on education until high school graduation.

People from their residential compound all said the Huang family had gone mad; since girls were meant to be married off, they should save money to secure jobs for their sons instead.

Contrastingly, Chen Emei, who also lived in the compound, was utterly opposed to Huang. The residents praised Chen for being exceptionally diligent since childhood, always managing her household affairs impeccably.

The two formed a stark contrasting pair.

However, after Huang graduated high school, relying on her own efforts, she secured three jobs successively, earning a job for every member of her five-person family, astonishing all in the compound.

When Huang married, others assumed her lazy ways would lead to rejection by her in-laws, perhaps even returning home.

Surprisingly, Huang was spoiled by her in-laws, her husband's income rose, and her mother-in-law treated her like her own daughter.

In contrast, Chen, who married around the same time, toiled day and night with endless housework and constant complaints from her in-laws.

Though praised by others, Chen secretly endured an indescribable hardship. Why, when Huang lived well in her previous life after marriage, did Chen now face such a bleak fate?
