Rewind to 1975

Su Ci has always traveled between different times and dimensions, making a fortune by finding undervalued antiques and restoring them. Then her System unexpectedly breaks down, and she ends up in the 1970s, transmigrating into the body of a young girl with the same name. The girl is a pretty little crybaby with three older brothers, one younger brother, three older sisters, and one younger sister. Her family is so poor they can barely afford food, and she is often bullied. Su Ci: "..." What a rotten System. Fortunately, she still has all her other golden fingers. In this unusual era, many priceless treasures look like junk to ordinary people. Armed with her skills in appraising and restoring antiques, Su Ci starts from scratch on her journey to get rich by collecting "junk"... * Only after Wu Qiaoyan dies does she learn that she was living in a book. Her neighbor Ye Suci, whom she envied all her life, was the heroine. Thanks to her protagonist's halo, all she had to do was cry and cry her way to a winner's life. Reborn, Wu Qiaoyan devotes herself to sabotaging Ye Suci's luck and stealing the wealthy husband she had in her previous life. But as she tries to sabotage her, Ye Suci, who had reached the pinnacle of success in her previous life by marrying well, becomes a super-rich businesswoman through her own efforts in this life. The man Wu Qiaoyan stole remains a loser all his life. Wu Qiaoyan is so furious she drops dead. ◆ A feel-good slice-of-life story, an ensemble portrait of the times, with a romance for the heroine ◆ Before the System broke down, the heroine traveled between different times and dimensions solely to resell antiques. Visiting the Ming Dynasty was no different from visiting an antique market. She did not follow any plotlines or undertake any quick transmigration missions, so please don't imagine otherwise.
