The Pretty Green Tea of the 1970S

Lin Xiangmei is an excellent cook, a smooth talker, and a gifted actress. At a young age, she already runs several restaurants. But she accidentally transmigrates into a book, becoming an ill-fated farm girl living in the 1970s. Her parents died young, her eldest brother is missing, and her younger siblings are still little. In a big family of dozens, she's constantly bullied. Seeing her younger brother and sister shiver from the cold and cry from hunger, Lin Xiangmei slaps the table. "Do you think I'm dead?" From then on, Lin Xiangmei takes her siblings with her, fights off the family's troublemakers, breaks up the household, leaves the poor mountain village, and heads to the big city. She finds work, opens a restaurant, and builds a better life with each passing day. But why does that impossibly handsome and stubborn soldier keep showing up at her door? Shen Weishan, a veteran with powerful connections, promised to look after his comrade's sister for the rest of her life in repayment for saving his life. Before meeting her, he plans to support her financially for the rest of her life. But then he meets the pretty young woman who, one moment, is beating a local hoodlum senseless with a fire poker, and the next, is sweetly asking him to settle his life debt in one lump sum. Her mind is full of nothing but money. Shen Weishan changes his mind. He decides to care for her for the rest of her life in every way: emotionally, financially, and in her everyday life. *One-on-one romance / sweet story / both leads' first love / satisfying story / happy ending *Historical-era setting / food / raising kids / very loosely based on reality Theme: Love life even when you're facing adversity!
