The '70s Female General, Raising Her Gentle Husband in Her Palm

Lin Ye, the Great Xi Dynasty’s renowned female general who defended its northern frontier, has spent her life at war, hard as iron and cold as steel. After she transmigrates, she finds herself in the body of a timid young intellectual sent to the countryside in the 1970s, unloved and bullied by everyone.

Here, men are strong and women are weak, rules keep everyone in check, famine is everywhere, and life is poor.

From the start, she is ostracized and exploited, with a pack of spiteful people making trouble for her at every turn.

Luckily, she takes in Su Qinghe, a gentle young intellectual from the city with soft features and a delicate build.

He is pure and kind, tender and considerate. He mends her clothes, stays up late cooking porridge for her, and, no matter how unfairly he is treated, quietly leans on her for support.

In her previous life, she commanded troops across the land, wielded military power, and stood alone;

In this life, she puts down roots in the countryside, keeps her strength hidden, and devotes herself to one person.

The whole village laughs at her for being wild and untamable, for being the stronger half of the couple, and for wanting to marry a man, which they consider shameful;

A wicked woman schemes against her in secret, greedy officials take the chance to suppress her, and rumors spread far and wide.

Wearing the proud spirit of the general she once was, Lin Ye sweeps away every plot with a cold gaze:

“I’ll protect the one who’s mine. I’ll shield him from every storm and bear every hardship. My husband belongs in the palm of my hand, cherished in peace and tenderness, never made to suffer.”

From then on, the formidable female general holds her own in the 1970s, making money, reclaiming wasteland, face-slapping the worst troublemakers, and sweeping aside every villain, while pampering her gentle husband until everyone envies him.
