1977: The Water Vat Forces My Biased Father to Split Up the Family

[Space + Transmigration + Abusing Scumbags]

Lin Yi opens his eyes and finds himself back in 1977, drugged with a powerful aphrodisiac and trapped inside his home by his wicked stepmother and her cronies, who have come to catch him in the act.

Luckily, he has a space stocked with endless supplies. A ladle of spirit spring water cures the poison, and he even manages to save Shen Qingqiu, a female doctor from the capital who was drugged too.

His biased father, furious that the scheme failed, orders him, “Eldest, give your younger brother your slot at the steel mill. You can stay in the village and earn work points.”

“You want my brother to go?”

Lin Yi gives a cold laugh, grabs his favored younger brother by the back of the collar, and forcefully shoves his head into the courtyard’s huge water vat.

As water splashes everywhere, he pats his brother’s face, swollen like a pig’s: “Yaozu, let me ask you, do you still want that slot?”

Terrified out of his wits, his brother lets out a slaughter-pig’s squeal. “I don’t want it! Brother, I really don’t want it!”

His stepmother, Wang Cuihua, wails beside them: “Lin Yi, you heartless bastard! Your father’s still alive, and you dare hit your brother!”

Lin Yi flings down a stack of irrefutable evidence that Wang Cuihua stole his late mother’s dowry and misappropriated communal supplies. Then he hefts a big iron shovel and smashes the bones of a black-market thug.

“We’re splitting up! If you refuse, I’ll burn this house down tonight. No one gets to live here!”
