The ’70s’ Max-Level Village Girl’s Soft, Sweet, and Difficult Green Tea Routine

“Wanqiu, you eat this half a cornmeal bun. Don’t let yourself starve.” Zhou Jiancheng’s ears burned red as he pressed the rations into Lin Wanqiu’s hand, his fingers brushing her soft palm by accident.

“Brother Zhou, if you give me your food, what will you do if you can’t hold out?” Lin Wanqiu lowered her head, delight shining in her eyes at how perfectly her plan had worked. In her last life, she was a ruthless overachiever. Now she had become a village girl in the 1970s, nearly starving to death, while her awful brother and sister-in-law planned to sell her to an old cripple in exchange for thirty jin of cornmeal! She couldn’t just sit around and wait to die. She set her sights on a timid factory worker who had come to the countryside to buy local produce.

Her mother-in-law jeered, “A country girl thinks she can move to the city? You’ll wash my dirty clothes for three months first!”

Lin Wanqiu agreed to her face, then secretly exchanged all the cloth coupons her mother-in-law had hidden for floral fabric to make a dress. A city household registration? A secure job? She had a plan for city life, and she could even train the factory worker to obey her every whim. At night, she would corner him against the wall and demand, “Who’s prettier, me or that little clerk at your factory?”
