The Sweet Young Wife of the Seventies

Fair-skinned, beautiful, and delicate girl × tough guy with a tender heart and a secretive streak The first time Song Yi saw Shen Jiaojiao, he thought, How could anyone in the world be this beautiful? Especially that red mole between her brows. She looked just like Zhou Zhiruo from The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, beautiful enough to break your heart. He wanted to marry her, cherish her, and have three, four, five, six, seven, or eight children with her. Then his life would be complete. Shen Jiaojiao had a secret in her heart. She had a dream in which she received her college entrance exam notice. She wanted to take the exam and return to the city, but Song Yi refused. After they argued, she secretly had an abortion... The child was gone, and the two of them divorced. All that remained in her memories were Song Yi's eyes, burning like flames in the night... * As the first marriage between a member of the commune and an educated youth in Hongqi Commune, Song Yi and Shen Jiaojiao had no one's support. After all, apart from being pretty and somewhat educated, Shen Jiaojiao was useless. She couldn't do any heavy lifting or manual labor, and she was less useful than a teenage boy. Song Yi, on the other hand, was clever and hardworking, and had a cousin who was a team leader. Everyone said that a beautiful flower had been stuck in a pile of cow dung. Song Yi was the beautiful flower. Everyone in the commune knew that Shen Jiaojiao was a spendthrift who loved dressing up. All the money Song Yi earned went toward making her pretty clothes. Song Yi was even more clueless. To earn money to support his wife, he quit his farm work and went to the county town to peddle who-knows-what. Everyone wondered when the two of them would get divorced. They waited and waited, until Song Yi became a big shot in the import-export business, quietly making a fortune. They waited and waited, until Shen Jiaojiao, who loved dressing up, became a famous fashion designer. In the 1980s, her clothes sold for thousands of yuan, and politicians' wives and socialites clamored to get their hands on them. The people who had laughed at them were stunned. P.S. 1. Neither lead has terrible immediate family members. It's just a story about eating, drinking, falling in love, and making a fortune in the 1970s. 2. A sweet story, a fun and satisfying romance set in a bygone era. 3. Loosely based on reality. Coming soon: The Leather Factory Owner's Wife Gets a Second Chance Blurb: Looking back on her life, Jiang Lan felt like a joke. As the wife of a millionaire, Jiang Lan used Yumeijing lotion that cost one yuan a bottle and wore sandals that cost ten yuan a pair. Then her young and beautiful younger sister, Jiang Lili, stole her husband. She stood by that scumbag as they built their business from nothing, suffered for decades, and in the end was left with nothing after their divorce. After the divorce, she drifted from place to place. Her husband and sister raised her two daughters into failures. The elder daughter was domineering and extreme, spending all day at bars and dance halls and changing boyfriends like gloves. The younger daughter was gloomy and shut herself in her room, refusing to step outside. When she opened her eyes, she was back in 1990. The wind on the rooftop was bleak. A breeze swept past, carrying the blare of a cheap loudspeaker from the shopping center seven floors below: "The biggest leather factory has gone bankrupt! The bastard boss ran off with his sister-in-law! We have no choice but to take wallets as payment for our wages! These wallets used to cost a hundred, two hundred, even three hundred yuan, but now they're all just twenty yuan!" Theme: In the best of times, build a fortune from nothing.
