1972, a family compound in the Northern Military Region. It is a difficult era of scarce supplies and complicated relationships, and a military marriage is both an honor and a constraint. Before transmigrating into a book, the heroine, Yu Xingming, was a modern food blogger. She unexpectedly becomes bound to the Cannon Fodder Comeback System and transmigrates into a novel set in this era, becoming a supporting character with the same name who is tormented to death by her husband's family and serves as a stepping stone for the protagonists' romance. After her parents die early, the original Yu Xingming is forced by her uncle and aunt to take her cousin's place and marry Jiang Yanche, a regiment commander rumored to be “cold-hearted and crippled in battle.” Her new in-laws despise her from the wedding night onward, and she eventually dies amid poverty and scheming.
