Nineties Guide to Getting Rich

See the blurb for my neighboring ongoing novel, "Becoming a Factory Director in the Era Novel," below. Everyone says Luo Mei is blessed. She doesn't have to look after her grandchildren, and when she's old, her daughter will take care of her. Luo Mei thought so too, until her daughter died young and left a will saying: "Mom, I've paid back everything I owed you. In my next life, I don't want to be your daughter again. It was too hard." Was it hard being her daughter? Did her girl resent her for not letting her continue her studies? Or did she blame her for not helping out when it came time to buy a house? But being a woman is hard. Her in-laws never cared for her, her husband was useless, and her son was unfilial. Didn't she make it through all the same? If she could live her life over again, she wouldn't want to muddle through it like this. She also wouldn't have a second child. Maybe then her daughter wouldn't have to suffer so much, and perhaps she would be born into a good family. When Luo Mei wakes up, it's autumn 1991. She's a temporary worker at a wool sweater factory, about to be laid off, and carrying her three-month-old daughter... Content notes: 1. An uneducated mother is reborn. 2. Updates daily at noon. 3. It won't be very long. If this premise feels too light, you can check out my completed era novels next door, "Poverty Alleviation in the Era Novel" and "The Supporting Female Character Only Wants to Serve Her Country [Quick Transmigration]." I think they're pretty good. Please add my upcoming novel next door to your reading list: "Becoming a Factory Director in the Era Novel." After sacrificing herself while fighting for workers' rights, Nan Yan travels to the early 1970s and becomes the honored widow of a martyr. Her in-laws urge her to remarry. "Take the compensation money as your dowry. Our Lin family won't let you suffer any injustice." Her parents urge her to return to her family. "You can't stay a widow forever. We wronged you back then, but fortunately Cheng Ming is still waiting for you." Her ex-boyfriend promises her, "I was wrong before. I shouldn't have given up on you. I don't care that you've been married. From now on, we'll build a good life together." The military affairs office tells her, "Comrade Gao Nanyan, just tell us what you need. We'll do our best to meet your requests." Gao Nanyan makes the following requests: 1. From now on, I want to be the Lin family's daughter. 2. Whether I remarry is up to me. No one else gets to decide. 3. I want to work in a factory. Can the organization arrange that? The first two requests are easy enough. As for the third... The military affairs office assigns her to work at a food factory, where she can also bring the Lin family a little meat now and then. But no one expects the processed foods Gao Nanyan makes at the factory to become bestsellers and win an international gold medal! Gao Nanyan goes from a factory worker on the production line to Chief Engineer Gao. Her birth family panics. Their own daughter is favoring her in-laws. How can she not bring the Gao family some benefits? Her parents find Gao Nanyan and say, "You can't stay single forever, can you? Tell us what kind of parents you want, and we'll find them for you." Before she can even find a partner, an assignment order arrives from the organization: Chief Engineer Gao has been promoted to head a major factory in another city! Theme: Rely on yourself rather than heaven or earth.
