Reborn in the Sixties: In a Famine Year, I Ditch My Husband and Child and Feast Every Day

[Period setting + reborn + satisfying power fantasy + everyday family life + ensemble cast + no golden finger] In her previous life, Lin Guizhi was the most long-suffering woman in the family. Her husband’s heart belonged to his first love, and her six children treated her like a workhorse, eating her food, drinking her drink, and using everything she had. When she grew old, they complained that she was dirty, poor, and a burden. During the famine, she gave her last mouthful of gruel to her children and starved until her body swelled. In return, they told her, “Ma, you were born to live for us.”

When Lin Guizhi opened her eyes again, she had returned to 1960, the worst point of the famine. The family’s rice jar was nearly empty, but her husband still wanted to use their precious survival rations to help his first love. Her children crowded around her, crying that they were hungry, but no one asked if she was hurting.

This time, Lin Guizhi would not endure it. She would live for herself.

She would hide her own food, earn her own work points, and save her own money and ration coupons. Bloodsuckers who wanted to leech off her? Get lost! A husband who wanted to play the devoted lover? Divorce! She would make herself unbreakable and survive the famine with a full meal at every sitting and peaceful nights of sleep.
