This novel's synopsis: Hao Qingmei is the pitiful female side character in an era novel. She married a husband who died on their wedding night, becoming a famous beautiful young widow at nineteen.
The female lead, shortly after the legendary male lead sacrifices himself on a mission, carries the seriously ill mother-in-law out of the house and immediately hooks up with someone else, living happily on the compensation money.
The reader named Qingmei, who transmigrated into the book, took in the male lead's mother. Before the male lead's mother passed away, she insisted: In the next life, I must have you marry him!
Only then did she close her eyes.
Qingmei thought this matter was over.
She woke up from a nap in the rundown tiled house at the very beginning of the novel. On this day, the male lead's mother was supposed to deliver the betrothal gifts to the female lead next door.
Qingmei watched the drama; at worst, she'd just watch them perform again.
However, the female lead next door stretched her neck at home and no one went there, while the rundown tiled house in Qingmei's home, which was looked down upon by others, was crowded with people delivering betrothal gifts. Standing at the front was none other than the male lead's mother whom she had cared for until her deathbed.
The female lead chased after them and pointed next door: "Auntie, our house is the three-household gate; you went to the wrong place."
The male lead's mother pushed the female lead away and pointed at Qingmei: "No mistake, the person I'm giving betrothal gifts to is her, not you!"

Regiment Commander Gu received a phone call at the troops.
His mother: "Mom found you a wife; she's so beautiful."
Gu Qingzhou: "Arranged marriage is not advisable."
His mother: "Fifth platoon, fourth household in the second brigade of Donghe Village, not the third household."
Gu Qingzhou: "Forced marriage is illegal."
His mother: "Fine, then I'll be her mother, and you'll at most count as my son-in-law who moves into her family."
Gu Qingzhou: "...Personal situation?"
His mother: "Beautiful young widow; she's in high demand, hurry back!"
Gu Qingzhou: "......" She's probably a scammer.
Everyone said Gu Qingzhou rushed home in a rage to catch the scammer, but who knew, he exhausted all efforts to pursue Qingmei, and now he had her pinned against the door, urgently seeking a kiss.
After marriage, everyone said mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships are hard, let alone marrying a widow. But later, everyone knew that the hot-tempered mother-in-law was completely obedient to Qingmei, treating her like an ancestor.
Suddenly one day, the female lead who couldn't make it came to cause trouble.
Before even seeing Qingmei, the mother-in-law rushed up first: Pfft, bad luck thing! Get lost!
