Although Jiang Tang lives in the impoverished 1970s, she has a way to make money and enjoys a comfortable little life.
The only thing she finds confusing is that her cousin, who lives with her uncle's family, often looks at her with pity and speaks in a sarcastic, barbed tone.
Then one night, she sees a book in her dream and understands why.
Is the world she lives in actually a book?
Is she a minor character in it, doted on by everyone at first, then becoming a hopeless romantic who falls madly for a young urban volunteer?
To get together with him, she throws money at him, falls out with the friend she's known since childhood, and breaks ties with her family!
After all that drama, the young urban volunteer abandons her...
The heroine is her cousin, Jiang Cha.
The book says her life is hard at first, but it improves after she meets the male lead, a young urban volunteer. After that, her luck seems to turn overnight, and she rises higher and higher.
When she wakes up, Jiang Tang is furious.
Taking away someone's livelihood is like killing their parents.
Even if she dies in this life, even if she gets crushed to death by money, Jiang Tang will never go out of her way to give someone money and ration coupons!
Point of view two:
Jiang Cha has known since she was little that she lives in a book. She is the heroine everyone envies. Her life is hard at first, but later she becomes a lucky heroine.
So what if Jiang Tang, in the room next door, is living the good life now?
She's still destined to die young.
Point of view three:
Lu Wenzhou has been frail since childhood, doesn't like to talk, and often wants to die.
But he has a group of good friends, as well as a lively, adorable, quirky childhood friend who thinks about him and cares for him every moment of the day.
So he often feels that being alive is pretty great.
P.S. The central group has five members. They set out from Taoxing Village and face everything together.
This is a cozy, slice-of-life farming story. The focus is on good friends being cute, quirky, and enjoying good food together., √
The career, friendship, and romance storylines all progress slowly at the same time.

After Becoming the Director of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, I Made It Bigger and Stronger
Qi Tian has had one dream since childhood: to open a little shop!
Even after she went to college, that dream never changed.
Once she made up her mind, she worked part-time during college and then worked herself to the bone for three years after graduation. At last, she had saved enough to open a shop.
She had picked the location, found suppliers, and set the opening date. Everything was ready.
Then, on opening day, she got hit by a car...
When Qi Tian wakes up, she discovers that she has transmigrated into a book.
There are two pieces of news: one good, one bad.
The bad news is that she's landed in the early 1970s., _
The good news is that she's become the director of a supply and marketing cooperative., √
A supply and marketing cooperative is basically the predecessor of a little shop. And she's a director, no less, so it's not too different from her dream of owning a shop.
Qi Tian thinks it sounds manageable.
She rolls up her sleeves and gets down to work, earnestly and diligently.
But who knew the cooperative would look glamorous on the outside and be an empty shell inside?
She develops new ideas, adds new products, and expands the business.
Business at the cooperative is booming.
Before long, she turns it into a model organization for the provincial capital. Major suppliers come to her one after another to pitch their products,
and the cooperative gradually becomes a landmark.
Theme: Give it your all, and you'll achieve something.
