The Beautiful First Wife Remarries at the Divorce Hearing (1960s)

After waking up in the apocalypse, Yu Xueqiu finds herself in the body of the cannon-fodder wife of Chen Jianren, the male lead in a period novel.

The original owner and the male lead were in an arranged marriage. On their wedding day, the male lead returned to his military unit, and not long afterward, word came that he had died.

From then on, the original owner was branded a husband-killer and exploited like a workhorse by the male lead's parents. She never had enough to eat or warm clothes to wear, got up before the chickens and went to bed later than the dogs, and was beaten as a matter of course.

Three years later, a letter finally revealed that the male lead hadn't died at all. He'd lost his memory.

The original owner thought her hardships were finally over, but the first thing the male lead did after regaining his memory was demand a divorce.

It was because, while suffering from amnesia, he'd fallen in love at first sight with the woman who saved his life. They were already married and had a pair of adorable children.

An arranged marriage had been a mistake from the start. Now that he had a wife and children, naturally the original owner's mistake had to be corrected right away.

Yu Xueqiu, who happened to arrive in the middle of the divorce: A mistake? I'll show you a mistake, you son of a bitch.

It wasn't a mistake when you got married, but now that you have a wife and kids, you realize an arranged marriage was a mistake?

Furious, Yu Xueqiu throws a left hook and a right hook, beating the scumbag with one hand and stomping on her heartless in-laws with the other.

After getting the compensation she deserves, Yu Xueqiu turns to the male lead's sworn enemy, Huo Qisheng.

"Comrade Huo, I heard that the scumbag's wife is your fiancée. Those two were blinded by dog shit and couldn't recognize a good thing. How about we get together?"

Huo Qisheng, who'd only been watching the show: Brilliant! That's a brilliant idea.

Under Chen Jianren's furious glare, Huo Qisheng gladly agrees.

The two unlucky souls hit it off, submitted their marriage application that very day, and had their marriage certificate in less than a week.

When people heard Huo Qisheng had married the ex-wife Chen Jianren had thrown away, everyone in the military housing compound thought Huo Qisheng had let jealousy cloud his judgment.

That was until Huo Qisheng led a fair-skinned, beautiful woman, as lovely as a goddess, into the military compound and introduced her to everyone. "Let me introduce my wife, Yu Xueqiu."

Everyone: This is the country bumpkin Chen Jianren was talking about? He must be blind!
