Second Marriage Life in the 1960S

My next novel, Beyond the Faraway Northwest [The 1970s], is now underway. Synopsis: After reading a period novel called The Blended Family of the 1960s, Su Man woke from a dream to find herself inside the book as a bizarre supporting villainess. She put on airs like a wealthy capitalist’s daughter, made life hell for everyone, and drove her first husband to his death. Then she turned around and threatened to die unless she could marry a young military officer. In the original story, the hero, Xu Qifeng, was handsome and imposing. Though his family had no particular standing, he had risen to regimental commander at a young age. Just as Xu Qifeng was about to find happiness with the heroine, his first love, Su Man barged in and forced him to marry her. After the wedding, Xu Qifeng treated Su Man with icy indifference, while Su Man was no good-tempered pushover herself. They fought constantly, and their marriage lasted less than a year. When Su Man’s father was transferred to the frontier, Xu Qifeng seized the opportunity to demand a divorce and marry his first love instead. Cruelly abandoned, Su Man went mad and embarked on a path of outrageous, self-destructive villainy. Within five years, she died in the countryside. Now, having transmigrated into the book, Su Man had been married to Xu Qifeng for less than a day. To save her own life, she went to Xu Qifeng, who avoided her like the plague, and said solemnly, “I’ve decided to let you and your first love be together. Let’s get divorced.” Xu Qifeng stood before her in a crisp military uniform, his gaze as cold as an ice cellar. His reply was completely unexpected: “Want a divorce? Fine. We’ll talk about it after I’m dead.” Su Man: ? Wasn’t the story supposed to go a little differently? April 11, 2021: The synopsis was screenshotted and posted on Weibo. My next planned novel, Beyond the Faraway Frontier [The 1970s], is open for follows! Synopsis: Yang Qiujin was the belle of the Hongqi Production Team. At eighteen, she obeyed her parents’ wishes and married Chen Shengqing, a fellow villager. Chen Shengqing was handsome, broad-shouldered and long-legged, an ambitious young man with a bright future. He had no romantic feelings for Yang Qiujin, but his mother wept, made a scene, and threatened to hang herself, so in the end he reluctantly married her. Less than a month after the wedding, he was conscripted into the army. He was gone for six years, and after earning numerous military honors, he rose to battalion commander and became eligible to have his family join him. At Chen’s mother’s insistence, Yang Qiujin set out for the northwestern frontier with their five-year-old son to join her husband. She knew Chen Shengqing didn’t much like her. Their parents had arranged the marriage, so what kind of foundation could they have for love? She didn’t ask for much. She’d raise her son and build her career, and Chen Shengqing could do whatever he wanted. At first, Chen Shengqing felt the same way. But after spending day and night together through those harsh years on the frontier, he changed his mind. This woman was wonderful in every way. How had he been so blind not to fall for her from the start? A story about a couple who marry first and fall in love later. The hero and heroine are both natives of their world. No one transmigrates or is reborn in this story. June 21, 2022: The synopsis was screenshotted and posted on Weibo. Theme: Positive energy for the times
