The 1970s: The Cannon-Fodder Girl Makes the Rugged Officer Blush

[Period setting + transmigrate into a book + rugged military officer + marriage before love + sweet romance + spiritual spring space]

Wu Hanqiao opened her eyes and found herself transmigrated into the role of a cannon-fodder young woman sent to the countryside in the 1970s.

Her hands were cracked from the cold, her cornbread buns never enough to fill her up, and the earthen bed in the educated youth dorm was full of drafts.

And, according to the original novel, she was destined to be framed, have her reputation ruined, and marry a good-for-nothing from the village.

The original heroine, Lin Shuyao, wanted to marry into a powerful family, so she deliberately pushed Wu Hanqiao into the water to ruin her virtue.

Wu Hanqiao turned the tables, clinging for dear life to the stone-faced officer Ma Zheng’s manly waist as he happened to pass by the icy river.

The whole village laughed at her for being spoiled and pretentious. There was no way the Ma family’s living devil would take a liking to her.

Ma Zheng warned her coldly, “We’ll marry by agreement and divorce in a year. I’ll give you a place on the list to return to the city.”

Wu Hanqiao readily agreed.

To get some meat to eat, she crept into the rugged man’s bed in the middle of the night with a pillow in her arms. “Brother Ma, I’m afraid of the dark.”

A year later, Wu Hanqiao packed her bags to return to the city, only for Ma Zheng to carry her, bags and all, back into the house.

“In my dictionary, there’s only widowhood, not divorce!”
