Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.

Zhang Wenying counted the ever-increasing numbers on her bankbook.

Unexpectedly, she became a wealthy woman without even realizing it.

In less than two months, she earned a full 3,600 yuan.

This doesn't even include regular expenses.

Adding to the previous 30,000 yuan, her savings are now close to 40,000 yuan.

Forty thousand dollars in those days was worth more than five million dollars in later years.

She couldn't help but sigh.

It's so good to be born again.

Having started early in this era, they haven't missed out on the benefits of being at the forefront of trends.

Heaven also opened a door to the future for her, allowing her to travel between the two eras and bring back the hottest items from the future to sell in the 1980s.

This deal is a sure thing, you can't lose money.

Along with her eldest daughter, her tragic fate from her previous life has been rewritten, and now she has a stable source of income and her life is getting better and better.

Anyone who wants to bully them in this life will have to think twice.

Zhang Wenying happily hid the savings book in the dark hole under the bed, patted the thin wooden board, and felt as at ease as if she had taken a reassuring pill.

I was just about to go to sleep when someone knocked on the courtyard gate.

Zhang Wenying frowned, picked up a fire poker, and went to the courtyard gate.

"Who is it?"

Li Jianguo, standing outside the door, suddenly became agitated.

"Open the door! It's me, Li Jianguo!"

Zhang Wenying suddenly pulled open the courtyard gate, and Li Jianguo, who was about to knock on the door, was caught off guard and almost fell headfirst into the yard.

He steadied himself, his eyes widening: "Why did it take you so long to open the door?"

Zhang Wenying sneered and slammed the fire poker into the ground: "Look carefully, this is my home, not your Li family's backyard."

"You..." Li Jianguo was speechless, his face turning ashen, but remembering the purpose of his visit, he forced down his anger.

He took a deep breath and softened his tone: "Wenying, we've been husband and wife for a while, can you help me?"

I heard you've made a lot of money lately and even bought Mom a big gold bracelet.

I'm a little short on cash, could you lend me some to tide me over? I'll pay you back as soon as I have the money.

Zhang Wenying looked him up and down, a mocking smile curving her lips: "Li Jianguo, you certainly know how to pick your timing."

When you kicked me out, didn't you ever think about our past as husband and wife? Now that I'm doing well, you have the nerve to ask me for money?

She paused, weighing the fire poker in her hand. "I'm telling you, I don't have any money, but I do have a poker. Want to give it a try?"

Li Jianguo's face flushed red, and his lips trembled a few times, but he didn't dare to utter another sound.

He stared at the fire poker in Zhang Wenying's hand, and didn't dare to take another step forward.

Ma Hongping and her child got food poisoning while eating out, and her husband wasn't home.

The two of them are now in the hospital, vomiting and having diarrhea. He doesn't have a single penny in his pocket, not even enough to pay the registration fee.

He then remembered his ex-wife, Zhang Wenying, and shamelessly asked her for money.

Judging from Zhang Wenying's attitude, it seems unlikely that she will be able to borrow the money.

He gritted his teeth and added in a humble voice, "Wenying, please, I'm begging you."

Ma Hongping and I are completely innocent; there's nothing like the mess you're thinking about.

Now that she and her child are in the hospital, as neighbors, we can't just ignore this tragedy happening to her family, can we?

"Mind your own business?" Zhang Wenying scoffed, twirling the fire poker in her hand.

"Li Jianguo, what does it have to do with me that they, mother and son, are hospitalized?"

If you feel sorry for them, then use your own money to help them. I won't give you a single penny.

Li Jianguo was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead, and his voice was pleading: "Wenying, consider it a debt I owe you. I'll repay you double in the future, okay?"

I really don't have a single penny left.

Since you left, everything at home costs money.

"Of course."

You need to support Ma Hongping, and you also need to support yourself.

Oh, and don't forget, remember to give me the twenty yuan for living expenses, third brother.

He's not just my son; you're part of the family too.

"Zhang Wenying!"

Li Jianguo was so angry that his face turned red.

"I'm here to ask you to save people, not to talk about useless things..."

"I'll save your ancestors my ass!"

Zhang Wenying struck Li Jianguo on the shoulder with a stick, making a dull thud.

Li Jianguo winced in pain, clutching his shoulder and taking two steps back, his eyes wide: "You...you're insane!"

This woman hits him all the time, doesn't she have any manners?

Zhang Wenying didn't have the patience to waste words with him, so she chased him all over the yard and beat him up.

Li Jianguo was terrified by Zhang Wenying's crazy appearance and hurriedly covered his head and ran away in a sorry state.

"Zhang Wenying, you crazy woman, stop right now! Don't think I won't fight back!"

"Come on, come on!"

Zhang Wenying pointed to her head.

"If you're so capable, then hit me here."

Before I descend to the Yellow Springs, I will take you all with me; none of you will escape!

Li Jianguo dared not actually make a move. He knew Zhang Wenying's temper well; if a fight broke out, he would not gain any advantage.

He awkwardly hid at the courtyard gate, then turned back and shouted at Zhang Wenying, "Zhang Wenying, we're husband and wife, is it really necessary to be so ruthless?"

Zhang Wenying sneered and slammed the fire poker in her hand onto the ground: "Husband and wife? Li Jianguo, we're already divorced!"

We're divorced. You go your way, and I'll go mine. Don't bother me with your affairs with Ma Hongping!

When you and Ma Hongqin were having a great time, did you never think about what would happen today?

"You say the neighbors should help? I think you're taking advantage of me, Zhang Wenying, to clean up every mess I make!"

Zhang Wenying grew angrier as she spoke, took another step forward, and brandished the fire poker, ready to strike again.

Startled, Li Jianguo rushed out of the courtyard gate, standing outside, panting and supporting his shoulders, watching as Zhang Wenying slammed the gate shut and bolted it.

"Zhang Wenying, you are utterly unreasonable!"

Looking at the tightly closed wooden door, and remembering Ma Hongping and her son waiting to pay at the hospital, Li Jianguo could only grit his teeth and sheepishly turn around to borrow money from others.

That damned woman deserves to be taught a lesson!

Zhang Wenying, who was inside the courtyard, only returned after hearing the footsteps outside the gate fade into the distance, carrying a fire poker. She spat out a curse as she went: "What kind of thing is this? Even after the divorce, they still come here to cause trouble. Do they really think I'm still as easy to bully as before?"

She leaned the fire poker against the wall, dusted off the ash from her hands, turned around and went to bed, treating the incident as if she had just attracted a swarm of flies, which she could easily swat away.

A major event has occurred in Shanghai.

Someone went fishing at the beach and pulled up a suitcase containing a highly decomposed female corpse.

For a time, the entire city was in a state of panic, with everyone speculating whether the female corpse was from the city or had drifted down from upstream.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wenying further instructed Li Wenbing not to wander around outside after school and to take his younger sister home early.

As soon as Sister Li got off work, she grabbed her lunchbox and headed out the door.

"Aunt Li, where are you going?"
