[Period setting + reborn + face-slapping the scum + clearheaded beauty with ambition vs. cold-faced, sharp-tongued, fiercely protective husband + marriage first, love later + love grows over time]
In her previous life, Liu Nian saved Chang Yiming from drowning. They returned to the village together, soaking wet, and the gossip began.
Her father, Liu Dashan, feared she would suffer, so he brought Chang Yiming into the family as a live-in son-in-law.
After they married, Chang Yiming knelt and begged for an urban return quota. Her softhearted father pulled strings and got it for him.
The family met with disaster because of this. When Liu Nian heard the news and rushed back from the city, all that awaited her were three boxes of cold ashes.
Heartbroken, she was also sneered at by her mother-in-law as a “barren hen.”
By then, Chang Yiming had achieved success. He casually handed her a divorce agreement and forced her to leave with nothing.
Despondent, seriously ill, and driven out into a snowstorm, she swore before she died that if she got another life, she would never make the same mistakes again. She would make them pay.
When Liu Nian opens her eyes again, she is reborn in 1979.
She sees someone in the river waving for help and turns to run.
This time, she won’t save him.
But then she meets a kindhearted officer by the roadside...
Two years later, Liu Nian stares in shock at the twins she has given birth to, a boy and a girl.
So the one who couldn’t have children in her previous life was someone else all along!
