The road to wealth of a peasant widow

Great Zhou Dynasty, Yinping County, Shangde Township, Liujiaping Village.

A family at the end of the village was obviously holding a funeral, with white hanging on the door and some paper money floating around in the yard.

On the bed in the east room of the main hall in the courtyard, Chen Cui was staring blankly at the beams.

She is still a little confused. Wasn't she dead?

She clearly saw the doctors and nurses declare her dead and her body was covered with white cloth. How come she was alive again now, and in a completely unfamiliar time and space, existing as another person.

She had just received the memories of her original body, and now her mind was a little confused and she couldn't recover for a while.

Chen Cui was originally an ordinary old lady in modern society. The only difference between her and others was that she had more money and a richer life.

She originally came from a humble background and had no one to rely on. After struggling for half a lifetime, she finally achieved financial freedom and could live a carefree life.

As she enters her later years, she grows vegetables and raises chickens in her large Chinese-style courtyard every day, watching short videos, and leading a leisurely and comfortable life.

If she feels too quiet at home and wants to move around, she can contact a travel agency and customize an itinerary. The tour guide and driver will only serve her, so she can travel around and relax, and all arrangements along the way will be extremely thoughtful.

It can be said that as long as the money is in place, everything can go according to her wishes, so her later life can be described as happy and harmonious.

If there is anything lacking in her life, it is that she has no relatives or children.

Chen Cui was born in an orphanage. After finishing junior high school, she went out into the society and suffered a lot.

Later, through her own efforts and step-by-step struggle, she finally saved some money, found a suitable partner to get married, and had her own family, fulfilling her long-cherished wish of having a home.

Just when she thought that all the hardship had paid off and there was only happiness in the future, misfortune came knocking.

She had not been pregnant for more than a year after marriage, so the couple went to the hospital for a check-up and found that the problem was with her.

She was born with congenital malformations of her reproductive organs and was unable to get pregnant. She would never be able to have her own children in this lifetime.

When the test results came out, she was completely stunned. She had been without parents or relatives since she was a child, and what she most hoped for was to have a family, give birth to a child with her own blood, and live a life with a family and relatives. How could God play such a trick on her!

What made her even more sad was that her husband and in-laws soon filed for divorce.

She and her husband were not without any emotional foundation. They had been in love for three years and had a certain understanding of each other before deciding to get married. She didn't expect that the other party would change his attitude so quickly after this incident!

In fact, from an objective point of view, she could understand her husband and her in-laws' desire to have offspring, so despite her sadness, she still agreed to the divorce request.

However, what I didn’t expect was that the other party wanted not only a divorce, but also money!

Her husband's family was not wealthy. She had used up a lot of her savings as a down payment when buying the wedding house, and had also paid off the mortgage and provided living expenses after marriage. She had never expected that her husband's family would wipe out everything she had done with just one sentence, and wanted her to leave the house with nothing!

Those were all earned by her hard work. How could it be easy for an orphan like her to save that money? That was the capital for her to make a living in the future, so she couldn't let that family get away with it!

She can divorce, but she will never give up her wealth!

Fortunately, although she has a low level of education, she has learned a lot after working in society over the years. She knows that she has to use legal weapons to protect herself at this time, so she carefully collected evidence and found a reliable lawyer to defend herself.

In this way, she took a lot of effort to get back what she deserved and get out of this failed marriage!

In fact, the more important reason why she was able to get the money she deserved was that the man’s new woman was pregnant, and they were anxious to get married to give their child a legal identity, but she caught her with this handle, so they had to give up!

After three years of dating and a year and a half of marriage, it ended like this. This made her feel disheartened about love and she never wanted to touch it again.

Later, after struggling for half her life and having enough wealth to allow her to live a carefree life for several lifetimes, she was already quite old.

Sometimes when she sees other people of her age already have grandchildren, she can’t help but feel envious and regret not adopting a child.

However, before the idea could develop further, she dismissed it herself.

She was placed at the doorstep of an orphanage when she was less than a month old. She grew up there and knew very well what the environment was like.

The orphanage can provide these helpless children with food and clothing, and keep them alive, but it cannot give them more.

Many of the children there come from traumatized families, and many of them don’t even know who their parents are. They have never enjoyed the love and care of their family, and are inevitably psychologically deficient.

Anyone who comes out of there always has some problems in their mind, and she is one of them.

To this day, the shadow of her childhood still remains in her heart and it has never been healed!

The character of an adopted child is uncertain, and it is hard to say what he or she will become in the end.

Moreover, she was really busy in those years. In order to make money, it was difficult for her to eat three meals on time. She couldn't even take care of her own life and had no time to raise a child.

Even if she really adopts the child, what if she neglects to discipline the child and he turns out to be an ungrateful person? In the end, not only will her feelings be wasted, but she may even end up inviting a wolf into the house, making his life even worse!

Now she lives a rich life, with money and free time, but she is getting older and her energy is not as good as before, and she can't bear the hardship of raising a child.

Besides, other people have already started raising grandchildren, so it always feels a bit awkward for her to adopt a child.

So, she simply lived alone, with a nanny taking care of her daily life, which was quite comfortable.

She had lived a hard life in the first half of her life, and it was time for her to enjoy herself in the second half. As for her funeral, she was not worried.

She had already notarized her will. Once she passed away, part of her property would be donated to the orphanage where she grew up, and the rest would be donated to charity.

The wealth obtained from society is returned to society, which can be considered as well spent.

However, she had clearly died of a heart attack, so how could she have ended up in this place called the Great Zhou Dynasty and become a widow with the same name as her, also called Chen Cui!

When she was free and watched short videos, she would also come across some novels and short dramas, some of which were about time travel, so she knew what time travel was.

Is this the situation she is facing now?

Knowing it was one thing, but when time travel became a reality and happened to her, she really couldn't accept this fact for a while.

Not only did her original body live in a rural area in feudal society, she was also a widow whose husband had died and had several underage children to support. The only advantage was probably that this body was younger than her original one. As for the other things, let's not talk about them!

However, she was already dead in her original world, and her body might have been cremated long ago. Now she has the opportunity to start a new life in another world, which can be considered a blessing from God!

So, what else is there to say? No matter who she is, she should be grateful just for giving her a new life.

No matter what Chen was like before, now that she has taken his place, she will be responsible for the rest of his life!
