The Officer Wants a Divorce? His Cannon-Fodder Wife Thrives With Her Space

[1970s transmigration into a book + sweet military marriage + department store space + face-slapping the awful relatives + building a fortune]

When Lin Wanxing opens her eyes, she has become the cannon-fodder wife in a 1970s military-marriage novel, a woman who steals her husband’s allowance and is about to be divorced.

The original owner made everyone’s life miserable and was eventually sent back to her parents’ home, where she died of illness in a dilapidated shack.

But Lin Wanxing has gained access to the department store space she had in her previous life. With a daily allowance of ten yuan, she first wins over Grandma with brown sugar, then makes a place for herself by earning work points in the fields, digging for medicinal herbs in the mountains, and taking up handicrafts as a side business.

When her awful family shows up to mooch off her, she airs old grievances in front of everyone: “My money isn’t going to you. Not one cent.”

When the original heroine is framed, Lin Wanxing steps in to help, and the two go from romantic rivals to best friends.

As she unlocks the food, medicine, stationery, and grain-and-oil sections one after another, she transforms from a lazy daughter-in-law everyone despises into a department store owner who leads the entire village to prosperity.

As for the cold-faced officer who was supposed to divorce her, he later turns red-eared and hands over his allowance. “We’re not getting divorced. You can have my money, and you can have me, too.”
