After quick transmigration, Su Caiqing found herself back in the 1980s, unexpectedly becoming the early-deceased mother of seven bigshots. Because of their dark childhoods, each of the bigshots originally had no good ending.
Life as a widowed mother was hard. Her in-laws pushed her and her children to the limit, and her natal family could not help. Everyone pitied them and thought, “Those mother and children will probably starve on the streets!”
But Su Caiqing had completely changed.
Starve on the streets? Impossible. She cooked food, sewed clothes, and seized business opportunities, earning in every way.
Bully her and her children? Impossible. With words, she could scare off mad dogs three streets away. With force, she could send robbers to meet the King of Hell.
Children fated to meet tragedy? Impossible. She was both a warm and reliable mother and a strict tiger mom who could discipline unruly kids until they cried out.
Unexpectedly, someone took a fancy to a widow with seven noisy children and would not let go.
Su Caiqing: “What exactly do you see in me?”
The shameless man: “I like that you’re beautiful.”
Su Caiqing: “Just a superficial sack of flesh. Shallow.”
The shameless man: “I meant your inner qualities.”
Under Su Caiqing’s careful upbringing, the bigshots grew up to become accomplished.
Years later, internationally renowned soprano Zhang Yunbing said at a concert: “Today’s charity concert is for my beloved mother’s sixtieth birthday. I will always love and be grateful to her.”
Famous writer and screenwriter Zhang Yunqing wrote in the acknowledgments of his new book: “My Big Family is a beautiful memory of my childhood, a precious treasure my mother gave me. Thank you, Mom, for giving me the most wonderful years and filling my soul with warmth.”
Economist and national think tank member Zhang Yunyang said in an interview: “Everything I have is thanks to my mother. She patiently answered all my questions and opened my eyes to the world. She taught me to stand higher and see and think about the world from a broader perspective. She is the greatest mother.”
Brothers Zhang Yunxing and Zhang Yunhe, CEO and chairman of Huaxing Group, said in a speech: “Before we even realized it, our mother had already begun training us. Her foresight amazes us today. That is why we established a charitable education foundation in her name, to continue and carry forward her loving and kind heart.”
Famous actor Zhang Yuncai said in a talk show interview: “Rumors that I am American? False. Although my husband is American, I will never change my nationality. I listen to my mother. Being Chinese is the best. This is my root. I love my mother and my siblings. I will never move my household registration.”
Zhang Yunyou, member of both the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said: “I have always believed that shaping a soul is like mechanical engineering. You need a broad view and careful attention to detail. Raising children is not easy. I deeply admire my mother and feel endless gratitude.”
When asked how she raised so many outstanding children, Su Caiqing smiled and said: “Of course, you must first live as the example yourself.”
