A Remarried Couple in the 1980s

★Dearest readers, my new novel, The Reborn Foolish Beauty of the Seventies, is now underway~

[Complete! A heartwarming period story, and there's plenty to binge!]

[Blurb]:

"Xiaoxing, this is just a fake divorce. Here's ten yuan. You raise the kids. Once I get back to the city and get my job sorted out, I'll come take you and the children to enjoy the good life. Just wait for me."

Su Xingye had only just figured out who she was after transmigrating into a book when she opened her eyes and heard her original body's scumbag ex-husband putting on a show.

A fake divorce? Wait for you? Wait for you to return to the city, marry some official's daughter, and live it up while the original body's mother and two children fend for themselves? Then, when you can't have a son, you'll come back and take them away? Bah!

Clutching her divorce certificate, Su Xingye turned around and remarried Shen Kaiyue, who had returned to his hometown to visit family, bringing her two undernourished children along.

The widower Shen Kaiyue was stationed on the frontier. At last, he'd been promoted and could bring his family to live near him. But before he could get home, his mother, who had been looking after the children, died, leaving him with two kids. His son had been spoiled into an unruly, extremely picky eater, while his daughter had been beaten more than once because his mother favored boys. He wanted to find the children a new mother, but as soon as prospective matches heard that the northern frontier spent half the year under snow, with little food or drink, and that he had two children, they wouldn't even meet him.

Just as Shen Kaiyue was at his wit's end, Su Xingye came to his door.

"I've got two kids and you've got two kids. Neither of us can judge the other. I'll go with you to the frontier, and I'll raise your children as my own. Let's make a life together. What do you say?"

Looking at Su Xingye's smiling eyes, Shen Kaiyue nodded. "All right."

When this remarried family arrived in the snow-covered frontier, people started gossiping.

"That young wife looks kind, but a stepmother's never as good as a real mother. Those two kids of Kaiyue's are in for a hard time."

"Never mind whether the kids will suffer. This place is the middle of nowhere, and plenty of wives have left. I don't think she'll last either."

The gossip swirled around Su Xingye, but she paid it no mind.

She made sturdy padded clothes for the kids, then led the charge into the snow. Come on, let's have some fun first!

The frontier was a wonderful place. No food or drink? As if!

They dug for ginseng in summer and went ice fishing in winter. Pork stewed with glass noodles, chicken stewed with hazelnut mushrooms: the kids' malnutrition was fixed in no time, and even the picky eater cried because the food smelled so good.

Su Xingye looked at the three little piglets, now growing plump and rosy, and felt pleased. "It wasn't easy for Mom to raise you. Getting too fat isn't good for you, so come on, give me a back and leg massage and get some exercise."

The three little ones obediently did as they were told, though one of them felt it wasn't fair. "What about our little sister? She's even fatter than us."

"Your sister? She's the little princess of our family. She doesn't have to do a thing."

As the years went by, Shen Kaiyue kept rising through the ranks, all four children grew more and more successful, and Su Xingye seemed to grow younger and younger.

The youngest daughter, raised like a princess, linked arms with Su Xingye. "Mom, people all say we look like sisters. My dad is so old. Don't you mind?"

Su Xingye looked at her husband's hesitant expression and suppressed a laugh. "Your dad and I agreed we'd make do." She winked at her daughter. "I think we can keep making do for a while yet."

Blurb for my new novel, The Reborn Foolish Beauty of the Seventies:

The foolish beauty Zhu Chenxi was reborn, but she still had no idea how to give her family a better life.

That was all right, though. Someone next door had a clever head on his shoulders.

From the start, her older sister wanted to lend all the family's savings to an ungrateful man so he could take the entrance exam for the machinery factory. There was no way she'd let that happen.

Following Gu Shiyuan's advice, she signed up her own older brother instead.

Gu Shiyuan: I clearly said that giving it to your brother would be better than giving it to Li.

Zhu Chenxi: Exactly. So I signed up my brother. Gu Shiyuan, you can definitely get him into the machinery factory, right?

Gu Shiyuan: ...

Zhu Chenxi was delighted. Gu Shiyuan really was useful. She listened to him, and her father had meat and wine, her mother was healthy as a horse, her brother got a good job, her sister became a boss, and she even got into college. It would be even better if she were a little smarter.

One day, Zhu Chenxi was chatting with Gu Shiyuan. Her voice was soft and full of temptation. "Gu Shiyuan, you're so smart. You must understand me. I want you..."

Before she could finish, someone took her hand and placed it against his chest, his voice low. "You can have it."

...His brain, not his body!
