[Period setting + military marriage + marriage first, love later + life with the troops + building wealth + raising kids]
Xia Hui accidentally transmigrated into a book and became the male lead's ill-fated first wife in a military romance set in the 1970s.
Her mother-in-law played favorites, using Xia Hui's allowance to support her second son.
Her father-in-law looked down on her, believing she wasn't good enough for his officer son, and went around looking for another daughter-in-law.
Her younger brother-in-law never stopped taking advantage of her, always demanding money and even a house...
She was frail, short on money, and couldn't even protect her children. A total sacrificial character.
But Xia Hui refused to take that lying down!
If it was hers, she would take it all back. The rest of the nonsense was no big deal. She'd just deal with it.
She laid into her biased in-laws, put her spineless brother-in-law in his place, then caught a train with all three kids that very day to join her husband in the army.
Only after arriving at the base with the children did she discover that her husband, whom she hadn't seen in four years, wasn't the cold-faced officer she'd imagined...
He watched her by day and by night, completely smitten. He handed over his entire allowance, and divorce was out of the question.
Back in their hometown, his biased parents waited day after day for their son to throw her out. But how did she end up going to college, joining a newspaper, and even starting a factory? She was thriving, outshining their son!
Only Xia Hui knew she'd found someone who truly loved and protected her.
Wei Sinan was handsome and upright, always putting her first and treating her wonderfully.
Onlookers: “If you spoil your wife this much, she'll be walking all over you before long!”
Wei Sinan: “If Xia Hui wants to walk all over me, then I'll let her...”
Xia Hui blushed. “That's not what they meant!”
