Han Wanwan opened her eyes and found herself reborn as an eighteen-year-old girl in the 1960s.

Her biological older brother had been forced to go to the countryside. Her stepmother ruled the household, and her father favored his youngest son.

Even the factory job she'd finally managed to get had been given to her stepsister instead, leaving her as a low-level employee at a recycling station.

Han Wanwan stood at the entrance to the recycling station, piled high with junk. "..."

Fortunately, she had a portable treasure-appraisal System. What others saw as junk, she saw as precious antiques.

An auntie brought in a vase she no longer wanted at home.

"Ming Yongle sweet-white-glazed plum vase with a secret floral pattern of entwined peonies discovered. Points +30."

A child sold a piece of metal he'd dug up.

"Western Zhou hollow-carved sword sheath with snake pattern discovered. Points +30."

Even a ragged piece of clothing she happened to find:

"Ming Dynasty cotton garment with colorful phoenix pattern discovered. Points +20."

Her late mother's old friend looked at the lovely young woman who spent every day dealing with scrap and teared up. "Wanwan, Auntie will find you a different job."

Han Wanwan hurriedly waved her hands. "I'm really doing just fine at the recycling station."

P.S. The female lead is no self-sacrificing saint.

Upcoming novel: Back to the 1980s to Marry My Ex-Husband's Nemesis

Everyone said Zhou Ruonan was lucky. A village girl had married a city man and become a famous rich wife in the surrounding area. Even though she hadn't given birth to a child, her husband hadn't divorced her. Even her family kept hinting that she should be grateful.

Outsiders envied her glamorous life, but Zhou Ruonan could only smile bitterly.

Her mother-in-law was picky, her sister-in-law was difficult, and her brother's wife was passive-aggressive. Her model husband in the eyes of outsiders was actually gone every night and had even fathered an illegitimate child.

Zhou Ruonan didn't want to endure it anymore. Just as she was about to confront her husband's family, she woke up one night back in the 1980s.

But although it was the same decade she'd lived through, everything had changed completely.

Her ex-husband was engaged to her younger sister, making him her brother-in-law.

And she was dating her ex-husband's nemesis.

Everything Zhou Ruonan knew about Jiang Chen came from her ex-husband, Wang Hengshun.

According to Wang Hengshun, Jiang Chen was a sinister, conniving, good-for-nothing hooligan.

So when Zhou Ruonan first met Jiang Chen, she was extremely wary and kept as far away from him as possible.

Only after she got to know Jiang Chen did she realize that her ex-husband had twisted the truth.

Her ex-husband: "Jiang Chen is a layabout who spends all day wandering around."

In reality, Jiang Chen had started his own business in secret and was already worth ten thousand yuan.

Her ex-husband: "Jiang Chen is sinister and conniving, always making dirty moves."

In reality, Jiang Chen was brave and resourceful in business, while her ex-husband could only swallow his losses.

Her ex-husband: "Jiang Chen has loose morals and is always surrounded by women."

In reality, Jiang Chen was devoted to his wife alone for decades.

The younger sister who had been reborn looked at the husband she'd stolen, then at her older sister's life, which was even more prosperous than in her previous life. She felt a tight knot of resentment in her chest.

Why wasn't anything going the way it was supposed to?

Upcoming novel: The Fierce Stepmother of the 1960s

Zhou Hui, a student at a traditional Chinese medicine college who died in a car accident, opened her eyes again and found herself a young wife in the 1960s who was about to be cast aside.

The original owner had been dutiful to her parents-in-law in the countryside and managed the household, while her college-educated husband had already found someone else.

The pretty-boy husband stood before Zhou Hui with his arm around his city-born female classmate. "We're true love."

After the divorce, her ex-husband pretended to be considerate. "Zhou Hui, I know you have nowhere to live. You can keep living in the countryside with my parents. We'll be divorced, but you can stay with the family."

Zhou Hui: So you want me to be your free servant.

You think I'm crude and uneducated? I think you're a weakling who lives off others.

She cut her losses at once, got a hefty sum from her ex-husband, and kicked the pretty boy to the curb.

Her former in-laws were upset about the money and cursed her behind her back. Just wait and see how an orphan like her manages.

Zhou Hui immediately showed them with her actions.

A divorced woman can find happiness, too. She found an army officer with a tough exterior and a warm heart, and became a golden phoenix who flew out of the mountain ravine.

Feng Lianqiao knew she was getting a stepmother. She secretly told her two younger brothers to cause trouble and drive the stepmother away.

But on the very first day they met, they saw their stepmother use both hands to wrench the arm off a burly guard.

The two younger brothers froze in terror. "Sis, our stepmother is too fierce. Let's get out of here."

Zhou Hui, who was skilled in bone-setting, had only wanted to show off a little. She never expected to build herself such a fierce reputation.

The Feng siblings when they first met her: Our stepmother is so scary. Hurry up and get rid of her.

The Feng siblings after getting to know her: Our stepmother is so fierce. She's our idol.

Upcoming novel: [Showbiz] What's It Like to Be Quarantined at Your Idol's Home?

Jiang Li was tall and long-legged, fair-skinned and beautiful, and good at both singing and acting, yet he was still a B-list male celebrity in the entertainment industry.

Gu Jinjin had found gold in a sea of people. As Jiang Li's longtime fangirl, her greatest wish was for her idol to become a top-tier star.

As a part-time employee for the "Hungry?" app, Gu Jinjin never expected to get a job at the home of her idol, the male god Jiang Li.

She stuck to her professional ethics, resisting the urge to take photos with him and ask for his autograph, and dutifully completed her part-time job.

She thought their interaction would end once the job was done, but a sudden quarantine notice left Gu Jinjin in a difficult position.

Jiang Li was a kind and good-hearted young man, so he could only take her in.

One day, under the question "What's it like to live with your idol?" on a well-known forum,

someone posted: "Thanks for the invitation. I'm living at my idol's house right now."

The replies were full of mockery, ridiculing the poster for daydreaming and wishful thinking.

The poster continued to post a comment every day.

DAY 1: Big Brother is so kind. He took me in. I'm so touched, waaah.

DAY 2: Big Brother is gorgeous. He looks ten times better in person than on screen. Today is another day I want to swing from his eyelashes.

DAY 3: Big Brother's manager is so awful. He keeps making Big Brother act in terrible dramas. Hmph.

DAY 4: Someone stole Big Brother's latest ad again. Another sad day.

As the replies piled up and more people followed the thread, everyone got into the habit of waiting for an update every day.

Later, the forum users noticed that the poster, who had always posted daily, hadn't updated in a long time.

"Where did you go? Come back and update!"

"Please update. I miss Big Brother so much."

"Did the poster get sent to a mental hospital? It's hilarious that they imagined living with their idol."

Amid the many guesses, one reply slowly rose to the top.

"Just saying, doesn't the poster's story sound a lot like the recent viral story of Jiang Li and his new manager?"

The comment drew mockery from countless users.

"Leave Big Brother alone. Don't mention him."

"Do you think Jiang Li is a mahjong tile? Everyone wants to touch him!"

"Could this be the poster's alt account? Making this all up for attention."

The users refused to believe it, until Jiang Li's account liked the comment.
