[Everyday life in the 1970s + female supporting character + marriage before love + sweet romance]
When Lin Shutong woke up reborn, her aunt was trying to marry her off to the good-for-nothing husband she'd had in her previous life, all to collect a hefty matchmaker's fee.
She didn't want to suffer through the same agonizing life again, so she did everything she could to refuse her aunt.
Of the four siblings, Lin Shutong had the most miserable life. Her parents ignored her, refused to listen to her, and let her be beaten to death by that good-for-nothing.
Her elder brother watched coldly from the sidelines, her second sister acted as if it had nothing to do with her, and her younger brother, who shared her mother, despised her most of all.
In her previous life, Lin Shutong was excellent at managing the household and caring for the elderly. Not one neighbor or friend had a bad word to say about her.
Her in-laws knew her husband was cheating on her with her scheming classmate, but they kept it from her and lied to her while Lin Shutong worked herself to the bone for more than a decade.
In this life, Lin Shutong refused her aunt, called out her parents, and fought back against her siblings.
She set her husband, in-laws, and that scheming woman straight, leaving them disgraced.
She would suffer no more and be pushed around no more. At last, she would have a good life to look forward to.
But then the unexpected happened. Wearing an apron, Zhou Yanzhou gazed at her tenderly and said, “Wife, don't leave me. I'm skilled at all eighteen styles of cooking.”
