The Strong-Willed Woman Breaks Off the Engagement Without a Second Thought, Takes the Granary, and Marries into a Life on the Run

After transmigrating to the winter of 1961, she finds her fiance and his sweet, innocent mistress occupying the marital home she bought with her compensation money.

The scumbag is certain Xia Jingzhe won't make a scene and risk her reputation. "Break off the engagement? Without me, who'd want a martyr's orphan like you?"

Bound to an off-frequency Merit System, Xia Jingzhe gives a cold laugh and tears up the marriage agreement!

Keep swallowing your anger? She smacks him in the face with the privileges granted to a martyr's orphan and unilaterally cancels the registration!

Covet my marital home? The barracks office shows up with guns, slaps on a seal, takes inventory, and throws them out in the middle of the night!

Destroy my property? That's 1,564 yuan in damages, a serious disciplinary demerit, and mandatory deductions from your rations and wages!

Steal my slot? She voids the application on the spot and cuts off his path to advancement!

Everyone in the compound thinks Xia Jingzhe is too hot-tempered for anyone to want her. But then Lu Bingzhou, the young commander with the highest rank and most distinguished service record in the entire military region, shows up at her door with a full set of specially supplied grain and cooking oil, along with a marriage application.

"Comrade Jingzhe, I've had the people who bullied you transferred to the northern frontier to dig dirt. Filing the paperwork and getting married is perfectly proper, reasonable, and legal."
