Back in the 1980s, Lin Xi learned that she was the control female supporting character in a period novel, destined to marry a domestically violent man and be sucked to death by the protagonist's group.
In order to change her destiny, she designs to marry the promising "quasi-fiancé" of the heroine in the book - Lu Wenxuan, a college student who returns to her hometown to visit relatives.
Good news: People are asleep.
Bad news: It's too dark in the house and you're sleeping on the wrong bed.
Epileptic news: Under the covers is Lu Wenxuan's hated eldest brother who just came back from the labor camp, Lu Han!
The whole village laughed at her for being blind because she passed over a college student and chose a vicious reform-through-labor prisoner instead. Lin Xi was about to cry but had no tears, so she could only hold her nose and admit it. Unexpectedly, this rough man's husband worked coldly and silently during the day, but at night he stuffed all the rations into her arms and whispered with red ears: "Daughter-in-law, eat more."
Later, when the heroine was still complacent about marrying a "college student", at the national commendation conference, the legendary and mysterious chief engineer of scientific research, Lu Han, took the stage to speak and thanked his wife Lin Xi by name.
The heroine and the whole village were dumbfounded: Where are the promised reform-through-labor prisoners? How did you become the pillar of the country!
