Transmigrated as My Aunt in the 70s

Jianguo was also listening and he frowned. It wasn’t that he looked down on his father, but with Shou Jizu’s character, it seemed difficult for him to become the kind of man that his four uncles were. Tian Xinhua also felt it was difficult. Ice doesn’t form in a single day; neither does Shou Jizu’s laziness develop in a short time. Changing would indeed be very hard.

"Hey, there’s no harm in trying. At worst, uncle-in-law will stay the same. But if he really does change for the better, then my aunt wouldn’t have to work so hard. Don’t you think?"

Tian Sisi’s words opened a window of understanding for Tian Xinhua and Jianguo. Indeed, the worst outcome would just be Shou Jizu remaining the same old loaf-around he always was, and Tian Manlan would continue to work hard as before. But if he changed, then Tian Manlan would have a good husband, and the three brothers would have a good father. What a wonderful outcome that would be.

"Alright, that’s the plan then. Our goal is to transform uncle-in-law and make him into a diligent, responsible man."

Tian Xinhua was also inspired; he certainly understood that changing his aunt’s life fundamentally meant transforming Shou Jizu the person.

"Mhm, we need to devise a plan. Set a lower goal at first and then gradually raise the bar, eventually using my dad or the elder uncles as role models," Tian Sisi suggested.

The three heads huddled together and muttered their plans, while Shou Jizu, who was in the kitchen washing up, shivered suddenly. Who’s speaking of me? Shou Jizu mumbled to himself, then continued to wash up, clueless that starting from today, the blissful days of others working while he slept were about to become a thing of the past.
