She is a little strange in dealing with relatives and friends, which is a minor flaw. ②🍀The heroine was deceived all her life in her previous life.

This time-travel setting is different from the common time-traveling to ancient times or fictional worlds. It brings freshness to readers and allows readers to follow the protagonist's perspective and experience how in the 1960s when supplies were scarce but neighbors were close, the young couple used modern thinking and knowledge to live an interesting life in the alley, eating melons, making money, and raising children. ②- Tragedy of past life: Zhang Ying grew up in a family that valued boys over girls and was bound by filial piety. She only gave birth to one daughter after her marriage, but her daughter married into a family with many children and eventually died in childbirth, leaving behind three granddaughters. After Zhang Ying and her granddaughter were kicked out of the house by her son-in-law, she collapsed on the street due to excessive sadness. - Rebirth and Awakening: Zhang Ying was reborn and returned to the age of ten. At that time, her sister still instilled in her the concept of "eldest sister is like mother". After rebirth, Zhang Ying decided to change her destiny and avoid the recurrence of the tragedy in her previous life. - Start a new life: She began to learn various livelihood skills, such as growing vegetables, digging wells, etc., And worked hard to collect food to prepare for the future of herself and her family. In the process, she gradually grew into a strong and independent woman, no longer bound by traditional concepts, and bravely pursued her own life.
