[Historical Era + Broken Engagement + Everyday Life + 1977 College Entrance Exam + No Pocket Dimension + Building Wealth + Leaves Medicine for Military Research]

In her previous life, medical research prodigy Jiang Gancao honored the marriage-swapping pact between the Shen and Jiang families and married Shen Jianye, a soldier. He claimed an injury on a mission had left him impotent, so she spent her life in a sexless marriage and never had a child.

After Shen Jianye left the army, she used her mentor's connections to help him become a corporate boss. In return, he drugged her, causing brain cancer, and his longtime mistress, Liu Shuzhen, pulled out her oxygen tube.

Jiang Gancao is reborn on the day the Shen family forces her to travel to the capital to marry Shen Jianye.

Seeing her enemies again makes her blood boil. She beats the mistress, kicks the scumbag, and quickly calls off the marriage pact between the two families.

Unexpectedly, the mistress's official fiance shows up too!

In this new life, Jiang Gancao wants to take the first college entrance exam after its restoration in 1977 and start her life over.

Her mentors are still sent down to Xiahe Village, and in the capital she has no one to turn to. While looking for work, she happens to save Elder Lu, becomes his family's housekeeper, and takes on a young apprentice along the way.

But she never expected that Elder Lu's grandson, Lu Xingjian, was Liu Shuzhen's former fiance.

When Lu Xingjian is shot in the head during a secret national mission and left on the brink of death, she saves him.

As soon as news breaks that the college entrance exam will resume, Jiang Gancao immediately packs her bags and heads back to Xiahe Village. She takes her best friend along to sit the exam, and makes sure the Shen family is sent to prison for good.

The fates of those around her have all changed, and Xiahe Village has become a prosperous place known far and wide.

Now she, too, is ready to step into a brilliant life of her own.

Dedicated to girls who face hardship with courage, forge ahead through every obstacle, refuse to get entangled with awful people and things, and strive to realize their own worth.
