The Road to Riches in the Eighties

Su Qihang was the black sheep of the Su Family Village, in everyone's eyes. When everyone else went out to the fields to earn work points, he stayed home. Later, when the land was divided among households and the fields belonged to each family, along with everything they produced, he still wouldn't work in the fields. Everyone said Su Qihang would never amount to anything. But after a while, the villagers were left dumbfounded! Su Qihang built a new house, bought a big color TV... and took his parents and wife to the city to enjoy the good life. How did a man like that become a nouveau riche??? Here's a recommendation for my friend's period novel. Those who've followed her work know she's a very hardworking author! Author: Before I Swapped Marriages, I Was Reborn [The 1980s] by Hong Ye Si Huo In her previous life, Ye Man was devoted to her parents and loving toward her siblings. When her younger brother got a classmate pregnant, the other family demanded a marriage swap. To keep her brother out of prison, she agreed through tears. Her parents said, "San Ni, you're such a good daughter to us!" Her brother said, "I'll remember what Third Sister did for me for the rest of my life." But when she was abused at home, they said carelessly, "Men are like that. It's normal for them to have a temper! You must have done something wrong, or why would he hit you? Divorce? Impossible. Our Ye family can't afford that kind of disgrace..." Reborn at twenty, the day before her wedding, Ye Man wrote a letter of denunciation without hesitation. She never expected it to uncover the truth behind the marriage swap... Note: Since this is a period novel, some characters' views are shaped by the era and do not reflect the author's own.
