Reborn in the Womendom of the 1960s

(I can’t keep writing this, so it’s on hiatus. Thanks, everyone. I changed the cover to make it a little more cheerful.)

(I wrote an outline, but I don’t know where it’s gone. The general plan was for the heroine to graduate, then make a name for herself at work and stay on as a teacher, putting her name down to teach a few electives. It would be a pretty uneventful life.

I figured that after fighting wars in her previous life, she’d spend this one living peacefully and experiencing life in peacetime.

The ending would have her working her way up to a highly influential position at her organization, then retiring and coming back as a consultant.

In the end, a few of her apprentices would see her off on her final journey.)

Tang Xi was a young, short-lived general from the Great Shun Dynasty, a matriarchal society. She spent her first sixteen years eating, drinking, and having fun, then fought on the battlefield for four years. One day, she was reborn in another world in the 1960s, a world that didn’t exist, and an era that seemed to have just overthrown a dynasty.

Without anyone to keep her in line, her lazy nature meant she never learned any martial arts. There were many things she didn’t recognize here, such as two-wheeled bicycles, everything in department stores, and school textbooks...

Her upbringing and more than a decade of living in this era taught Tang Xi that neither her previous life nor the feudal dynasty before liberation was right. Men and women should be equal.

Tang Xi had been raised to support her family, but as she did so, she realized the roles had somehow reversed and she was the freeloader. Fortunately, she got herself back on track in time and found her life’s goal: becoming a translator for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

No romance for now. I’m not sure whether there’ll be any later, but probably not.
