A satisfying slice-of-life story with unique premises. Perfect for fans of slice-of-life genre and Chinese Economic Reform era.The MC is a twice-transmigrated-individual with calm temperament and clever mind (well, when life casually throws you around different worlds then obviously you have to learn to make do). She recently occupies the body of a young widow with 4 kids whose husband recently died in the army, so she has to repay the Karma by raising the kids and be filial to her elders.While depicting the MC's struggles to raise four kids alone and boost her cultivation in mortal world, the author also describes the circumstances and changes in China during the 70s (and subsequent economic reforms). There's few twists and turns in her own life, but there are plenty interesting tidbits from the people around her.I think the development of the story makes sense, because someone as calm and powerful as the MC obviously will not seek troubles and have superior means to avoid troubles. Even so, with such an MC, the author manages to illustrate an interesting story.
