Su Yingxue, a poor student, transmigrates into a book and becomes the female lead's foil in a story set in the 1970s.
The female lead is also an educated youth. She uses the original owner's help to secure a recommendation to a Workers, Peasants, and Soldiers college, then returns to the city and lives happily ever after. The original owner, meanwhile, is left in the countryside, where she marries a twice-married man and becomes a stepmother. She can never return to the city and lives a life of despair.
Su Yingxue arrives in the water. According to the original story, she is rescued and has no choice but to marry the man who saved her, a widower with several children. Su Yingxue doesn't want the tragedy to repeat. As if she'd want to become a mom overnight! The person on the shore has already jumped in to save her, so she puts all her strength into swimming in the opposite direction and makes it back to shore. Her movements are smooth and swift!
The man who jumped in stares at her in shock. Behind a tree, someone watches the scene, frowning, teeth clenched, their eyes full of regret.
Su Yingxue escapes the twice-married man. The next day, someone arranges a match between her and Battalion Commander Chen, who's home on leave. At first, she refuses, but after seeing his face, she decides that, as far as looks go, she can make this work!
As someone who has transmigrated into a book, Su Yingxue also has a golden finger: a Study System. As long as she completes the assigned study tasks, she earns food rewards. In this place where food and clothing are scarce, food is incredibly precious. So this lazy procrastinator, with a serious case of the can't-be-bothered, is forced to study hard for the sake of something to eat!
Su Yingxue keeps studying and ends up getting into a top university. Her life gets better and better!
The female lead awakens to the memories of her past life. This time, she gets together with the twice-married man and waits for him to become the richest man in the country, but it never happens. The man seems lazier by the day, and her life becomes a complete mess.
