Synopsis
Blurb One
Chi Xiaoyu transmigrates from ancient times to the modern era, going from a fearsome shrew to the village's loudest shrew, and from a young woman intent on finding a husband to marry into her family to a married woman.
Chi Xiaoyu adapts pretty well, though. Her husband's health is “poor,” but he respects and cherishes her. Her mother-in-law has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, her younger brother-in-law is impulsive but kind, and her father-in-law is quiet but generous with money.
She thought transmigrating was already astonishing enough, but then she unexpectedly learns that someone else has lived two lifetimes and switched her original marriage.
She was supposed to marry the future richest man, but now she's stuck with a “retired” husband who can't do heavy labor and was supposed to have died young.
But when she sees her “previous-life” husband's ordinary face and annoying family, Chi Xiaoyu pats her chest in relief.
Thank goodness, thank goodness the marriage was switched.
She doesn't want to spend every day fighting with people. She's much better suited to the quiet life she has now.
Drying seafood, going to the county seat, opening a fish farm, buying an island...
After her marriage is switched, Chi Xiaoyu makes her life better and better, leaving the person who stole her match dumbfounded.
Wasn't she supposed to marry the richest man? How did someone else get him?
Blurb Two
Hou Rongrong is reborn.
In her previous life, she resorted to every trick she could to return to the city, but life there wasn't as wonderful as she had imagined. More than ten family members were crammed into a tiny house, everything she got from her former husband's family was taken away, and before long she married an alcoholic who beat her.
Her husband didn't love her, and her children wouldn't listen. Hou Rongrong regretted everything.
Now that she's reborn, she has no intention of returning to the city.
She turns her attention to Zhou Mancang, the future richest man from her previous life, and his wife, Chi Xiaoyu.
Thinking of her short-lived former husband, who died just after they married in her previous life, and the Xu family, who had been so unreasonable that she ended up with hardly any money,
then thinking of the good life that shrew Chi Xiaoyu had enjoyed in her previous life, Hou Rongrong decides that if the shrew marries that short-lived man, the Xu family is in for a wild time.
So she schemes against her short-lived former husband again, only this time, Chi Xiaoyu is the one who falls into the water instead of her.
The two marriages are thus switched.
Hou Rongrong waits and waits, but Chi Xiaoyu never falls into poverty. Instead, she sees her former short-lived husband from her previous life rise higher and higher, while Chi Xiaoyu, who was supposed to turn the Xu family upside down, is adored by them and even becomes the richest woman alive.
Upcoming: The Substitute Bride of the Seventies
Blurb One
After Lin Xiruo's parents died when she was ten, she began a difficult life.
Her parents left her a large compensation payment, but she was born with superhuman strength and an enormous appetite, so every day she struggled to get enough to eat and wear.
One day, she hears that her distant cousin's fiancé is the head of a food factory, so she shamelessly shows up to mooch a meal.
Just as Lin Xiruo thinks she's finally going to get a filling meal, she discovers that her cousin has called off the wedding in front of everyone.
Her hand freezes as she holds a pastry, and she starts worrying that she'll be thrown out.
Then the groom-to-be points straight at her from within the crowd.
“Then I'll marry her.”
Lin Xiruo, sneaking food with her cheeks bulging: “Huh?”
Blurb Two
Lin Yanni is reborn at the very moment before her wedding. Looking at the tall, handsome man beside her, she remembers her previous life.
In everyone's eyes, Fu Shi is the youngest factory director, with a brilliant future ahead of him. They think she's incredibly lucky to have landed him.
But she knows that before long, the food factory will go bankrupt, and Fu Shi will go from a promising director to an ordinary worker, living a perfectly mundane life with her, full of petty everyday troubles.
Meanwhile, the young hoodlum she once rejected will become the richest man in the area. Lin Yanni looks at him among the crowd, grits her teeth, and steels herself.
“Tang Ruiguang, will you marry me?”
Everyone is stunned.
Fu Shi, a royal kitchen chef who has just transmigrated from ancient times, sees this scene: ...
To keep the wedding from becoming a joke, Fu Shi looks toward the guest who resembles a chubby little mouse, sneaking food, and speaks up.
“Would you be willing to marry me?”
Upcoming: Wholesale Trading in the Cultivation World
Blurb One:
While playing the game Fish Farmer, Zhuang An'an transmigrates to the cultivation world and becomes an egg of the Xu Clan, joining the ranks of prospective heartbreakers.
She discovers that her game has come with her, but her inventory and skills...
are gone.
It's a farming game about raising fish, with only a few quacking ducks and fish fiercer than dogs.
Fortunately, she discovers she's gained a golden finger that lets her make copies and grow without limit.
In the first year after transmigrating, Zhuang An'an sets talismans off like firecrackers and earns the title of “Richest Demon Clan.”
In the second year, she has all the spiritual herbs she could want, munching on thousand-year-old spirit fruit like it was ordinary fruit.
In the third year, she makes her enemy grow an extra leg while they're fighting...
She becomes a celebrated miracle doctor, leaving her enemies bewildered.
Ten years after transmigrating, Zhuang An'an looks at the two identical boyfriends across from her and falls into deep thought.
Is this a legally sanctioned love triangle? Or legally sanctioned “fish-keeping”?
Blurb Two
A typical society where males stay home and females work outside. Males lay eggs and raise the young, while females go off carefree, returning to their clan's homeland only when they're about to die.
Legend says they have immaculate white feathers and clear, bright blue eyes. Anyone who accidentally meets their gaze becomes lost in a fantasy until death.
Zhuang An'an wakes up as a member of the Xu Clan. Though labeled a prospective heartbreaker, she ends up doing the most motherly chores.
She thinks she's just transmigrated like anyone else, until she runs into the male lead in a secret realm and suddenly realizes she's become a cannon-fodder demon in a cultivation novel.
The cannon-fodder demon targets the heroine in all kinds of ways out of love for the male lead, and eventually has her tendons pulled out, skin peeled off, and eyes gouged out, before she's made into the heroine's magical weapon.
Zhuang An'an: ...
Clutching her little feathers and fish close, Zhuang An'an knocks the male lead unconscious and beats him up first.

Isn't the most profitable fishing method to retrieve torpedoes?
I went back and watched the first two episodes again carefully, and confirmed that the modern-day protagonist doesn't have any similar relatives or friends. As for whether he's a younger brother from a past life, that's hard to say. After all, if there's a younger brother, there should be a younger sister too!
Is the price of this TV a bit high? I remember buying a TV in 2009 or 2010 only cost a little over a thousand yuan.
The ending was so sudden! Hooray for the finale!
Was the ending too rushed? I want to see more.
Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers!
Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers!
They finally recognized each other. That's wonderful.
Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers! Sprinkling flowers!
It wasn't enough. I want to see more.
