Li Xiaoran, a modern language whiz, wakes up in 1975 after her soul enters the body of a lovesick educated youth sent to the countryside.
The original owner eloped with a scumbag and froze and starved to death. Li Xiaoran opens her eyes to a desperate situation: no food, no ration coupons, and not a single work point.
After unlocking a portable space, she uses her fluency in eight languages and modern knowledge to turn her life around.
The scumbag won't leave her alone? She exposes him in public and cuts ties for good!
The other educated youths look down on her? She translates a farm machinery manual and amazes everyone!
Lu Chenyuan, a stoic, rugged man, is cold on the outside but warm inside, silently protecting her at every turn.
She's proud and sharp-tongued; he's sly and fiercely protective. Together, they make their way through the 1970s.
From an earthen house to a university in the capital, they turn the tide and find sweet happiness with no angst.
They stand side by side through the currents of the era, helping each other thrive and building a happy life together.
