Back to 1986

I got a message from my editor: the story goes VIP on November 16, with three chapters that day. I hope you'll support it.

Fu Xi was a tragic figure.

He had an older brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister.

The rarer something is, the more precious it becomes. When there are too many of anything, it loses its value. Children are no different.

The youngest son and eldest grandson are the old man's pride and joy.

His grandparents doted on the eldest brother, and his parents doted on the younger brother. He and his sister were the two who got ignored.

In his previous life, trying to please his parents had made him neglect his wife and children.

Now that he had returned to a turning point in his fate, he planned to live differently.

Upcoming story: After Transmigrating into a Returned Youth. Add it to your collection if you like it.

Zhang Yin transmigrates into the body of an educated youth sitting on a train back to the city.

He knows that after getting off the train, he'll return to the two-room apartment where he'll be crammed in with his parents and his older brother Zhang Jin's family. He'll soon marry an ugly, fat woman, all because his bargain-bin father-in-law will get him a job at the state-run supply and marketing cooperative.

His sister-in-law is gentle and virtuous, a capable hand both at home and out in the world.

His wife is fat and ugly, greedy and lazy, and prone to shouting and cursing.

His older brother has a secure job, earns a lot, dotes on his wife and child, and is praised by everyone.

He has a temporary job, earns little, beats his wife and children, and is despised by everyone, like a rat crossing the street.

His older brother is gold, and he is silver.

Silver can never compare to gold!

Their family exists as a contrast to his older brother's happy life!

Don't ask how he knows.

Because he transmigrated into a book!

Reading notes:

1. Male protagonist's point of view. A rural family-life story.

2. Updates daily at midnight. One chapter a day before going VIP, two a day afterward.

3. Fictional historical setting. The content is entirely made up, so please don't scrutinize the details.

Theme: Hard work creates a better life
