A Seventies Mom Breaks with Her Family, Takes Her Child, and Crosses Thousands of Miles to Find Her Husband in the Army

Su Wan, a master of modern medicine, opens her eyes and finds herself reborn in the 1970s as a namesake who’s everyone’s doormat. From the start, everything goes wrong: she lives in a pigsty, gets beaten and berated by cruel relatives, and her twin children are so skinny they’re little more than skin and bones. Now the relatives are planning to sell them off! Sell them? Over my dead body! Su Wan grabs a butcher’s knife and fights for her life, rescuing her children from the traffickers. With her two adorable kids in tow, she decisively cuts ties with her bloodsucking relatives and sets out on a thousand-mile journey to find her husband. Everyone in the village says Su Wan has gone crazy. With two kids weighing her down, she’ll starve to death on the road sooner or later. But Su Wan not only survives, she uses her extraordinary medical skills and knowledge far ahead of its time to blaze through the famine-stricken journey. She treats the sick, saves lives, and makes money through buying and reselling goods. Her life gets better and better. At last, with her plump, rosy-cheeked children, she finds her husband, Lu Changfeng, who is on a mission at a military base. Looking at the handsome, heroic man before her, Su Wan hands him divorce papers. “Commander Lu, I’ll keep the kids. Then we’re even.” Lu Changfeng, who always gets his way outside the home, instantly turns into a devoted husband. He pins her against the wall and says in a hoarse voice, “Wanwan, I was wrong. We’re not even. My life belongs to you and the children.” The twins each grab him, one clinging to his leg and the other tugging at his sleeve, and declare in their childish voices, “If you want to be our dad, you have to pass our test first!”
