Awakening '90: A Mother-Daughter Comeback

Zhang Yan was a village woman with one unforgivable flaw: she gave birth to a daughter, and then no sons. Her husband and mother-in-law threw her out. Alone with her girl, she clawed up from nothing — tofu pudding stall, restaurant, farm-stay business — pouring every cent into her daughter's future while the world sneered that a girl wasn't worth the investment. Then her daughter's name hit the college honor roll. Zhang Yan had already built an empire and found a man who deserved her. Her bitter ex-husband and his viper of a mother came crawling back. She didn't even glance their way. She's the flower that blooms in a storm — and storms don't scare her anymore.
