The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Shen Baolan racked her brain but couldn’t understand how she ended up in such a state.

Back when she was a maiden in her parental home, Shen Mingzhu couldn’t do anything right, but once she entered the city, it was as if Shen Mingzhu had turned into a different person, capable of doing anything and everything well, and her life just kept getting better.

In her parental home, she was superior to Shen Mingzhu in everything, but after entering the city, she was outdone by Shen Mingzhu in every aspect, and nothing seemed to go her way.

Could this really be destiny?

Shen Mingzhu was born lucky, able to lead a good life even after marrying the short-lived Pei Yang.

And she was born under an unlucky star, destined to a miserable end even after marrying the future tycoon?

The more Shen Baolan thought about it, the more desperate she became, and the more desperate she felt, the sadder she got, until she couldn’t help burying her head in her knees and sobbing uncontrollably.

Just as she was crying her eyes out, a clear and melodious child’s voice seemed to descend from heaven above—

"Just crying won’t do any good."

Shen Baolan, with tears blurring her vision, lifted her head and recognized Pei Ziheng. Her first reaction was that Shen Mingzhu had come to laugh at her!
