Guide to Marrying a Military Commander in the 1970s

New novel, Becoming the Client of a Gloomy Male Supporting Character from the Era of Scarcity, is currently updating. The blurb is at the very end.

Blurb for this novel:

Ye Huan is a flower fairy from an immortal sect. By a twist of fate, she transmigrates into a book set in the era of scarcity. A loudspeaker at the neighborhood office is passionately shouting, "Go to the countryside, go to the borderlands, go wherever the motherland needs you most!"

Her mother tells her, "This batch of educated youths is going to Hongxing Farm. There's a flower garden there. I pulled some strings and got you assigned to it. Growing flowers is better than farming."

Ye Huan sorts through the plot. She has a half-sister on her father's side named Ye Qing. To avoid being sent to the countryside, Ye Qing got married first. Now Ye Huan has two choices: find anyone at all to marry, whether he's blind, lame, or an old bachelor, as long as he's a man; or go to the countryside as an educated youth and grow flowers.

Ye Huan: "Grow flowers? I can do that."

She packed up her bedding and went off to grow flowers.

A young woman arrived at the farm and sat on a little stool in front of the flower garden, chatting with the farm's aunties. She was more beautiful than the flowers. Young men from the military compound made excuses just to catch a glimpse of her, while Battalion Commander Gu frowned so deeply his brows formed the character for "river."

Battalion Commander Gu was strict and treated male and female soldiers equally. During training, he could even make a female soldier cry for putting on a dab of cold cream.

Everyone said Commander Gu probably couldn't stand the girl, until one day someone spotted him taking her to the department store and insisting on buying her cold cream. He told the sales clerk, "Comrade, I'll take all of these cold creams."

Everyone was stunned. "...So this is what Commander Gu is like!"

Ye Huan had gone to the countryside in Ye Qing's place, and Ye Qing had always felt guilty about it. When she heard Ye Huan was coming home for a visit, she arranged a match for her with an old widower from a crowded courtyard. "It doesn't matter if he's a little old. He knows how to treat a woman right." Then she waited for Ye Huan to come home. Ye Huan finally returned, but she wasn't alone: a tall, handsome officer was with her.

Ye Huan introduced him. "This is my boyfriend."

The young officer added, "We're getting married soon."

Ye Qing was dumbfounded.

Becoming the Client of a Gloomy Male Supporting Character from the Era of Scarcity is currently updating. Here's the blurb:

Du Sihui's lifelong ambition is simple: to land a secure government job.

After working late, she suddenly transmigrates into a book, and the story opens with a blind date.

The original owner was beautiful, and although she had an older brother, she was treated as the only child in the family. The house and money would all go to her.

She had an ideal start, but a man tricked her, and she became a stepping stone on the male lead's path to the top, meeting a tragic end early on.

In the 1980s, government jobs weren't yet so fiercely competitive that thousands of people fought for a single opening. With enough effort, getting one was easy.

A secure job and money: those were her ultimate dreams in both lifetimes.

As for a blind date? With a guy like this? She promptly cursed him out and walked away.

Only later did she realize she'd cursed out the wrong person!

The man she'd cursed out was the book's sinister main villain and the male lead's archenemy.

Worse still, the villain wouldn't let her go.

The man cornered her against a wall, his voice low and enticing. "Two choices. One, I put your name in my little book, and we sleep together and have a baby. Two, I put my name in your little book, and we sleep together and have a baby."

Qin Lang built his fortune from scratch. He was infamous, cold as iron, and cared about nothing but making money.

Until the day a pretty young woman gave him a thorough scolding. From then on, he couldn't take his eyes off her. A fire burned inside him, and he wanted to hear her gasp as she cursed him...

Later, he got his wish. He felt bad for her, but he just couldn't stop...

Du Sihui: ...Books are all lies! The gloomy villain was supposed to be so sinister, so how did he turn into an obedient client who does whatever she tells him?

But when it comes to that one thing, he won't listen to her at all!
