(Transmigrate into a book + military marriage + 1970s + family drama + slow-burn romance)
Shen Tang transmigrates into a book set in the 1970s and becomes the male lead Gu Yanting’s wicked widowed sister-in-law.
In the novel, the sister-in-law’s husband dies of illness on their wedding day. When she learns that her younger brother-in-law Gu Yanting has lost his memory during a mission, she rushes to the city in the middle of the night and pretends to be his wife.
She is so vile that she offends everyone around Gu Yanting, and does everything she can to keep him from falling in love with the heroine.
After learning the truth, Gu Yanting has the original owner sentenced to three years of reform through labor for impersonating a military dependent and defrauding an active-duty officer.
Later, on her way back to the countryside, the original owner is kidnapped and sold to three brothers. They force her to bear eight children before she dies a miserable death.
As a result, Gu Yanting is left traumatized. Whenever he hears someone call him “brother-in-law,” he feels sick to his stomach.
Faced with this disastrous start, Shen Tang thinks, I’m done for!
She’s just about to come clean when she sees Gu Yanting beat a criminal half to death with his bare hands. She’s terrified too.
All right.
She’ll behave herself first and try to wait until Gu Yanting can look at her without feeling sick before she confesses.

After some time, she can finally confess and leave with a clear conscience.
But Gu Yanting’s eyes turn red.
“You’ve been lying to me all this time. You think leaving will make us even?”
Shen Tang is baffled. Then how does he want her to make it up to him?
“Give yourself back to me…”
It's very interesting. I want to see when Shen Tang reveals his identity as his sister-in-law 🤭
