A Guide to Turning the Tables in the 1970S

**A modern business tycoon transmigrates to 1975 and becomes military wife Yan Ruyu.** Her husband has been stationed at the border for three years and has yet to return. Her mother-in-law is difficult and sharp-tongued, her sister-in-law stirs up trouble, and she has a young son still crying for milk. Faced with an era of utter poverty, Yan Ruyu scoffs: If she can't go back, she'll make a life worth living here! Drawing on her modern business acumen, she starts out as a substitute teacher, organizes village women to earn money through handicrafts, and trades in scarce goods from the supply and marketing cooperative. Step by step, she carves out a path to prosperity amid the constraints of the planned economy. But her impossible mother-in-law only gets worse, hiding ration coupons, spreading rumors, and even teaching her grandson to curse his own mother. Then Ji Yunting, her reportedly stern military husband, finally returns, and his gaze grows ever more inscrutable. What happened to his wife? She seems like a completely different person!
