Married to a Rough-Hewn Man in the Seventies

Mei Yu is beautiful. She's been fawned over and doted on since childhood, and despite her family's poverty, she's grown up proud and haughty.

When she hears that being a celebrity pays well, she eagerly plans to become one as soon as she graduates from high school. Instead, she transmigrates to the late 1970s.

Not long after arriving, Mei Yu becomes just like the original owner of her body, a notorious bad example in the village: greedy, lazy, and spoiled rotten by her parents, the very picture of a selfish younger sister-in-law.

Mei Yu: The original was pretty clever. So what if people scold me? It's great not having to work. I'm not stupid enough to change.

The villagers mutter among themselves that a frivolous, gorgeous woman like her is clearly not fit for married life. What family would want such a troublesome daughter-in-law? She'll never get married.

But the most capable man in the village ignores all the hardworking young women and sets his sights on the lazy, greedy Mei Yu.

Mei Yu recalls the original owner's memories. The man is stern-looking and tall, a rough-and-ready type, but he caters to the original owner's every whim. He never hits back or talks back, and best of all, he's strong enough to earn a full day's work points every day and has money in his pocket.

To keep living a life of good food and being waited on hand and foot, Mei Yu agrees to marry him without a second thought.

But Mei Yu has no idea that she's transmigrated into a book.

The heroine is her second sister-in-law, and Mei Yu is the heroine's selfish younger sister-in-law.
