Old Lady Li lived a whole lifetime, bearing four sons and two daughters. She emptied her family's coffers and worked her husband to death, all to marry off her sons, raise their children, and look after her grandchildren. Her eldest son went to university, while his wife and children were dumped on her to raise. Her second son was a troublemaker; she constantly patched up his messes, only for him to turn around and become a live-in son-in-law for someone else. The third son was tall and strong but had soft ears, easily manipulated by his wife until he lost all sense of direction. The youngest son was also someone with high ambitions but low ability, obsessed with nothing but striking it rich... She dedicated her entire life to her family, only to be tossed into a nursing home to die in her old age. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the age of forty-nine, on the day of her husband's funeral. Having witnessed the cold-heartedness of her children, she felt not a shred of maternal love left in her heart. They still wanted her to work like an ox or a horse? Her life creed from now on would be: Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings; if there are no children or grandchildren, I shall enjoy my own!
