Coming soon: Life Doted on in the 1970s

After losing her mother at six, Geng Lihua's life consists of endless chores, endless beatings, and endless hunger.

At long last, when she turns 18, the man promised to her in an arranged marriage comes to propose, but he has chosen her cousin, who has bullied her since childhood.

As her cousin arrives with her arm linked through her fiance's, flaunting her triumph, Geng Lihua lifts the door curtain. Out steps Wei Tang, a handsome, educated youth from the city.

His eyes curve with his smile. "Lihua, you finally agreed to date me?"

The villagers of Dayan Village think Geng Lihua will be abandoned just like her mother.

Her second aunt says it outright: "What do you think Wei Tang sees in you? He can't stand life in the countryside, so he's just looking for a free maid to serve him!"

Geng Lihua thinks that being a free maid is fine, as long as she can leave this household.

But life after marriage seems different from what she imagined.

She picks up a basin to wash clothes, and her husband immediately takes it from her. "Wifey, you don't have to wash them. I'll do it."

She has only just picked up a knife when he stops her. "Wifey, put that down. What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Geng Lihua stands nervously in the room. What exactly did she marry him for?

Wei Tang shows her through his actions: all she has to do after marrying him is let him pamper her.

The village women see Wei Tang calling her "wife" every other word and worrying that even carrying a block of tofu might tire her out. They go home and grab their own husbands by the ears. "Look at how Wei Tang treats his wife!"

The village men: "Wei Tang, can you cut us some damn slack?"
