The Evil Mother-in-Law Rebirth: Bringing Her Twin-Bearing Daughter-in-Law to Follow the Army

Wang Guifen awakens in her body, gasping for air in the courtyard of her earthen house, realizing she has returned to the Dragon Boat Festival of her past life. In her previous existence, her daughter-in-law Su Yi, a delicate woman from a wealthy family who married her soldier son Wang Zhijun, was drowned in the Tanghe River by a rival named Zhang Qian. Zhang Qian, obsessed with Zhijun, manipulated events to separate the couple, ultimately causing the death of Su Yi and their unborn twins. After Wang Guifen’s own death, she learned that Zhang Qian had then tricked her son into marrying her. Now reborn on the very day of the tragedy, Wang Guifen is determined to alter fate and protect her family.

Wang Guifen rushes out with a carrying pole, ignoring the confusion of her neighbor Aunt Zhang. She finds Su Yi washing clothes by the river while Zhang Qian lurks nearby, plotting to push her into the deep water. When Zhang Qian attempts to shove Su Yi, Wang Guifen intervenes at the last second, grabbing her daughter-in-law to safety. Zhang Qian loses her balance and falls into the river herself. Wang Guifen, needing to maintain appearances and avoid legal trouble, pulls Zhang Qian out. However, Zhang Qian immediately attempts to frame Wang Guifen, claiming the older woman pushed her. A witness, Zhao Xi, arrives, and Wang Guifen’s quick thinking and the physical evidence of Zhang Qian’s malicious intent convince the crowd of the truth. Zhang Qian is forced to flee in disgrace.

The conflict escalates when Wang Guifen discovers that Zhang Qian had also hired a local loafer, Wang Laizi, to seduce and ruin Su Yi’s reputation. Wang Guifen beats Wang Laizi until he confesses, then drags him to Zhang Qian’s house to expose the conspiracy in front of the entire neighborhood. The villagers, tired of Zhang Qian’s scheming, side with Wang Guifen. Zhang Qian’s reputation is further shattered when she is forced to admit her involvement. Wang Guifen then shifts her focus to caring for Su Yi, recognizing that her daughter-in-law is pregnant with twins. She treats Su Yi with unprecedented kindness, cooking nutritious meals and ensuring she rests, which deeply moves Su Yi and strengthens their bond.

Later, Wang Guifen confronts the brigade leader’s wife, Li Chunlan, who had insulted Su Yi’s ability to conceive. Wang Guifen physically disciplines Li Chunlan, demonstrating her newfound ferocity in defense of her family. She also takes Su Yi to the city for a medical check-up, confirming the twin pregnancy. During the return trip on a tractor, they encounter educated youths from the city. When one of the youths insults them, Su Yi slaps her, showing her own strength, while Wang Guifen uses political pressure to ensure the youth apologizes. Upon returning, they witness a crisis: a spy has taken Zhang Qian hostage with a knife. Wang Guifen recognizes the spy from her past life, the same man who killed her previously. She acts decisively, shooting an iron arrow into the spy’s shoulder and rescuing Zhang Qian. The police arrive and confirm the man is a dangerous operative. With the spy captured and her daughter-in-law safe, Wang Guifen begins to plan for a future where her family thrives, free from the schemes of their enemies.
