Back to the Seventies: When My Powerful Husband Hit Rock Bottom

Song Yu is an honest, hardworking girl with the best reputation in the compound. When her stepbrother needs a job to get married, she gives hers up for him. When her younger brother needs to attend a worker-peasant-soldier university, she gives up her honor for him. When her stepsister and the man Song Yu was engaged to as a child worry about gossip, she gives up the engagement for them.

Her whole family loves her. Her parents cherish her, and her siblings respect her.

After wasting half her life, Song Yu finally understands: who wouldn't want a stepdaughter or sister they could use as a human blood bag?

Reborn at eighteen, she finds herself in the same situation again. Her stepmother smiles lovingly. "Our Song Yu is the sweetest, most sensible girl. Give your job to your sister-in-law for now."

Song Yu won't listen to that nonsense. She quickly sells the job, strips the house of every valuable, packs her bags, and heads off to the countryside.

There, she finds the man who will be her husband. He is a refined, cultured gentleman in the future, but right now he's a quiet young man with sharp eyes. His shirt is torn, revealing firm abs.

Shen Li has suffered a setback. His hopes of joining the army are dashed, his engagement is broken off, and the dirtiest, hardest work on the production team is assigned to him. The female educated youth from the city is always asking him to help with chores, too.

He weeds fields and carries water for people, then grumbles to himself: Is he the sort of person who enjoys helping others?

Song Yu reaches out and pokes his solid pectoral muscles with a slender fingertip. "Fine, I won't ask you to help anymore."

The man lowers his head, at a loss for what to do, his ears turning bright red.

Only after writing to break off the engagement does Shen Li's former fiancée realize she nearly missed out on a gold mine.

Shen Li will claw his way out of the mud. He's a mechanical engineering big shot, and a rich second-generation heir, an heir in the 1980s!

By the time she rushes over, only a few days have passed, but there's already a young woman by Shen Li's side.

In the sweltering cornfield, Shen Li weeds the crops, his narrow waist and long legs outlined beneath his coarse clothes, which can't hide his powerful muscles.

The young woman sits leisurely nearby, cracking sunflower seeds, wiping his sweat and handing him water from time to time.

What's going on? At this point, Shen Li's wife should be in the city!

Shen Li realizes that both before and after their marriage, his wife's gaze always passes over him to look at another man.

He's willing to be her stand-in, but at night, jealousy often gets the better of him.

Song Yu is wrung out until she can barely take it, then pounds his back, slick with sweat. "I want a divorce."

We'll get married again in ten years!
