The Max-Level Expert Returns to the Village to Make Waves [The 1980S]

My new novel, How to Get a Happy Ending with the Chief Councilor, is updating diligently. Please add it to your collection! Ji Xiaodong, a leading agricultural researcher, transmigrates into a period novel and returns to the turbulent 1980s. On the one hand, this is the beginning of the country's economic boom. On the other, social currents are clashing and people are unsettled. Making mushroom clouds is less profitable than selling tea eggs. Ji Xiaodong [or so she thinks] works hard alongside the villagers, diligently farming and striving to get rich. Onlookers: Stir things up! Stir things up! Stir things up! Ji Xiaodong: I didn't! Don't make things up! I didn't do anything! I just focus on farming. I never stir things up! Onlookers: "Feminist pioneer," "marketing mastermind," "wellness guru," "life coach." Look us in the eye and say that with a clear conscience. Ji Xiaodong: No, that's not it. Wait a minute. How did you turn a perfectly respectable research expert like me into some kind of charlatan? Well, Ji Xiaodong, there seems to be just a tiny little gap between how you see yourself and how others see you. Theme: Women's struggles and perseverance amid the larger social climate
