Synopsis:
In her previous life, Shen Yunzhi was blinded by misplaced devotion to her birth family.
After her husband died in battle, she ignored her gravely ill mother-in-law and handed over all the compensation money to her own family.
When her maternal uncle needed money to marry, she forced her in-laws to marry her sister-in-law off to a gambler. The poor woman was abused to death.
She even stole food her sister-in-law had borrowed and gave it to her own relatives, causing her brother-in-law’s family to starve.
Her mother’s family fed off her for a lifetime.
Eventually, Shen Yunzhi rose in status and built a better life — but by then, she didn’t even recognize her own daughter.
Cold and heartless, she ordered her daughter’s legs broken and left her and two children to freeze to death in the snow.
Only at the moment of her own death did regret finally consume her. She begged Heaven for one chance to atone.
When she opened her eyes again, she was back to the day her mother-in-law lay gravely ill… and the compensation money had just been taken.

I don’t know why someone like me was given a second life… but I want to—”
