Synopsis:

"Xiao Xing, we are getting a fake divorce. Here's ten yuan for you to raise the children. Once I get settled with a job in the city, I'll come back and take you, the mother of my children, to the city to live a good life. Wait for me."

Su Xingye had just figured out her identity after transmigrating into the book when she opened her eyes and heard the hypocritical words of the original owner's scum ex-husband.

A fake divorce? Wait for you? Wait for you to return to the city, marry the cadre's daughter, live luxuriously, and then, when the original owner and her two daughters are finally getting by, come back to steal the children when you can't have a son? Pah!

Clutching the divorce certificate, Su Xingye turned around and remarried Shen Kaiyue, who was back home visiting relatives.

Widower Shen Kaiyue was stationed at the frontier. He had finally been promoted and was allowed to bring his dependents closer to his post. Before he even got home, his elderly mother, who was looking after the children, passed away. She left behind two children: a son who was spoiled and severely picky about food, and a daughter who was often hit by his mother due to her preference for boys. He desperately wanted to find a new mother for his children, but as soon as people heard about the northern frontier, where it snowed for half the year and food was scarce, coupled with the fact that he had two children, no matchmaker would even arrange a meeting.

Just as Shen Kaiyue was frantic, Su Xingye showed up at his door.

"I have two children, and you have two children. No one gets to complain about the other. I'll go to the frontier with you. I'll raise all the children as my own. How about we just 'make do' and live together?"

Shen Kaiyue looked into Su Xingye's smiling eyes and agreed, "Deal."

When this second-marriage family appeared in the snowy frontier, people started gossiping.

"Don't let that young wife's kind appearance fool you. Children who aren't biologically hers never get treated well. Kaiyue's two kids are in for a miserable life."

"Never mind the kids' suffering, this place is barren. How many wives have left already? I think she'll also struggle to stay."

The crowd buzzed with rumors, but Su Xingye paid no attention.

After diligently sewing warm winter clothes for the children, Su Xingye led them out into the snow. Come on, let's play first!

The frontier was a wonderful place. No food or drink? Impossible.

Digging ginseng in the summer, ice fishing in the winter, pork stew with vermicelli, chicken stew with wild mushrooms—malnutrition was reversed in no time, making even the picky eater cry with delight.

Su Xingye looked at her three plump, white "piglet sons" and felt relieved, "It wasn't easy for Mom to raise you. Being too fat isn't good. Come, all of you, give me back and leg massages to get some exercise."

The three little boys were obedient but felt slightly unbalanced, "What about little sister? She's fatter than us."

"Little sister? Little sister is our family's little princess. She doesn't have to do any chores."

Later, Shen Kaiyue was promoted to higher positions, and the four children grew up to be successful. As for Su Xingye, she became younger and younger.

Her youngest daughter, who was raised like a princess, hooked her arm around Su Xingye's, "Mom, everyone says we look like sisters. Dad is so old, don't you mind him?"

Su Xingye caught the deep, wistful look in her husband's eyes. She held back a laugh, "I told your Dad back then that we would 'make do.'" She winked at her daughter, "I think we can continue to 'make do' for a while longer."
