Driving a Taxi in the Nineties

Jiang Yan was killed by an object thrown from a high-rise and woke up in the 1990s.

Things were going terribly from the start: her father was dead and her mother had remarried, leaving her with a younger brother and sister. Those two had been part of an illegal-birth “hit-and-run” family, too.

Luckily, her late father had been a taxi driver, and the family still had the “yellow minivan” he’d bought on credit.

And the 1990s were the golden age of the taxi business.

People said that when the accelerator roared, gold poured in by the thousands.

Turn the steering wheel, and you wouldn’t trade it for a county magistrate’s job.

Jiang Yan was an experienced driver who knew how to handle a manual transmission, and she had also bound herself to a “Taxi Upgrade System.”

Daily sign-in: +1 point

Each passenger: +10 points

Points could be exchanged for vehicle upgrades, real-world money, or enhancements to her own abilities.

Unfortunately, her original body had no driver’s license. Jiang Yan would have to find a way to earn some money and get licensed before she could take advantage of this golden age.

In her previous life, Jiang Qiunan worked herself to death for money. When she opened her eyes, she discovered she’d been reborn as the daughter of a wealthy family.

But before she could enjoy the thought, she learned she’d landed in the 1960s.

Jiang Qiunan felt as if the sky had fallen!

Even worse, someone had schemed against her, and she’d ended up in the same bed as the man who was supposed to be introduced to her older sister!

The wealthy family’s eldest daughter was forced to marry a country bumpkin. No one thought the match would work.

Her relatives mocked her for marrying beneath herself. She’d have to live among a bunch of country folk and guard against poor rural relatives coming to mooch off her.

His family worried he was marrying above his station, that his in-laws would look down on him, and that his wife might feel wronged and become a troublemaker.

Yet somehow, the two of them made a good life together.

Later, in the Gobi Desert of the far northwest,

he planted a mushroom and protected the land in peace.

She buried a spring, and brought forth fragrant melons and fruit.
