In the 1970S, Pig Expert Wang Jianguo Is on a Winning Streak

After winning the lottery, veterinarian Meng Miaozhu transmigrates with a pocket dimension, becoming Wang Jianguo, a good-for-nothing from Wangjiawan in a very different 1970s. One small detail: she’s a woman. Stuck with a name that sounds like it belongs to another era, Meng Miaozhu surveys her bare-walled home. Everyone in town despises her, but that’s fine. She’ll handle things herself. It turns out this world is wonderfully strange: men are tall, women even taller, and both sexes hold up half the sky. Women marry men. The names Zhaodi and Pandi, once given to girls in hopes of having a son, have now become Zhaomei and Panmei, given in hopes of having a daughter. Meng Miaozhu gazes into the distance. “Oh, my stomach hurts! You all carry on. I’m going home to have a baby.” In the fields, a woman braces her back with one hand, drops her sickle, and goes home. Less than twenty minutes later, she returns. “It’s a girl.” In this new world, Meng Miaozhu plans to enjoy her fresh start: treat sick animals, attend university, make friends, enjoy the love of family, and do her part to ensure the people of Huaxia can eat meat, eggs, and dairy with peace of mind.
