001
A fashion queen wakes in Clearwater Village amid a brutal three-year famine. She recognizes the world: the Saul family, the hungry children, the exact plot she once played and won best actress for. Now she is Lena Yale — stepmother to Justin, Henry, Yara and Zack — facing children begging, "Mom, don't give me away, please." Flashing memories warn that ten years later they will return successful and send her to the guillotine. Tears, guilt and fear collide as a hand rises — "Don't hit them, please!" — so will she rewrite fate or replay the same tragedy?
002
In a ration-starved, war-torn past, a fashion queen wakes trapped in Lena's body: husband declared dead, family penniless, and children threatened with being sold to pay debts. The original Lena's betrayal made Justin flee with his siblings; years later Justin becomes a war hero and general, Zack a one-eyed medical prodigy, and Yara an entertainment diva. Convicted for abandoning war heroes' children, the original was sentenced to death. Now the time-displaced heroine must win the children's trust — "Please don't sell me and Yara." Can she rewrite fate before the execution?
003
Stranded in the past, fashion queen Lena wakes up as "Mom" in a destitute household. Hunger and fear spike as the last flour is baked into a meal—children whisper, "You're not feeding us... just to sell Zack and Yara, right?" Justin vows to protect his siblings. Lena's feared reputation works in their favor, but abandonment looms. When a strange prompt appears—"Mom's the Best System"—maternal bonding triggers and Yara's gratitude +10, redeemable at a system shop. Can Lena use this mysterious system to save the family?
004
Famine grips the village. Mrs. Saul, mother of four, relies on Toland's Gratitude System to trade points for rice and cash while her husband is away. She cooks rich meals to earn gratitude and shield children like Zack and Yara. Neighbors, led by Zoey, accuse her of pampering outsiders and even plan to sell Yara to a gambler. Tension boils into threats. Justin warns, "I'll take you and run." The family prepares a final hearty meal; buns are ready. Can Mrs. Saul protect her children and escape the village's cruelty?
005
A fallen fashion queen wakes in a destitute past, inhabiting Lena's body as she fights to protect hungry siblings from an abusive mother. The mother snarls, "You rats only deserve scraps off the table," and even plots to sell a child. Lena quietly shares the good food; a system chimes, "Zack's affection has increased. Plus 10 gratitude." Determined to fill the kids and flee when the sale happens, Lena dresses to meet John Lee while a buyer demands the child by 10 a.m. Can Lena stop the sale and keep her family safe?
006
A tense night in a grim market: caretakers refuse to sell two children, Zack and Yara, despite a secret buyer's arrival. The protagonist — a determined protector and young Justin, fearful but loyal — plots with others: when the buyer sleeps, they'll take the kids and run. Accusations fly, tempers flare — "Shh!" — threats of violence and a bitter warning about a boyfriend's need for cash raise the stakes. A small mercy shocks them: the woman who never cared tucks a blanket over Zack, hinting at hidden motives. Can they slip away before dawn and save the children?
007
In a rural village at night, a frantic sibling races to stop Lena from selling their sister. They tell Grandma to alert the village head and broadcast a warning to block Lena. Villagers hesitate, afraid of trouble, while others jeer that Lena, widowed and loving another, would sell children for a lover. Voices rise: "Let go of my sister!" "Selling children is illegal!" Amid the chaos a child develops a high fever; the doctor fears encephalitis and potential brain damage if treatment is delayed. Can the protagonist stop Lena and save the child in time?
008
A modern fashion queen has fallen back in time and wakes as Lena, a woman with a notorious village reputation. When eight-year-old Yara collapses with a dangerous fever, Lena races to the clinic—villagers mutter she wants to sell the child. Doctors warn of pneumonia and possible brain damage. The mother pleads, "Mom, please," and begs for money while Lena scrambles to save Yara and prove she's changed. Justin's gratitude rises, but suspicion deepens. Can Lena save the child and finally overturn a lifetime of distrust?
009
In a harsh modern world where medical bills decide fate, a young woman who lost her parents now cares for her siblings. Her stepsister's life hangs on treatment, but a cruel stepmother refuses to spend half a year's living costs and neighbors turn away. At the hospital the blunt rule is cash only—"We have rules here." Desperate, she turns to "Mom's the Best System," exchanging gratitude points (10 for $10; she still has 35 and vows to trade them all). "Please help my sister." "I'll find a way to get the money." Can she raise enough in time?
010
Thrust from the fashion world into a rationed past, a modern fashion queen must survive a harsh household and protect vulnerable children. When she learns her mother paid for Sara's treatment but might sell her, she vows, 'I'm going to fight you to the end.' A mysterious system, Swen, notes Justin's growing affection and awards 20 gratitude points redeemable for money and ration coupons—a fragile lifeline. She confronts Grandma Lena's hoarding, keeps millet and eggs for the kids, and plans to buy nutritious food. Can she secure their survival and change their fate?
