The everyday struggles of a small-town girl in the 1990s.
After the age of five, Xie Zhinan was a little cabbage: unloved by her father and mother alike.
Then she met the light that brightened her life: the Bai family.
The day she received her college acceptance letter, she also became an "orphan in all but name."
Xie Zhinan dusted herself off and declared, "I'm not scared! I'll study hard and make lots of money to buy a house someday!"
Her childhood friend, who had grown up alongside her, helplessly hauled her back home.
Bai Xi: "If I hadn't taken her in, she'd probably be scavenging for a living by now."
Bai Xi had a childhood friend named Xie Zhinan.
Her name sounded lovely, but its meaning wasn't so nice.
The girl had grown up with her maternal grandmother, acting like she wasn't afraid of anything in the world.
At first, Bai Song was very reluctant to play with this "wild child," much less look after her.
But later, he came around.
Xie Zhinan had a childhood friend, a fair and handsome boy who was prettier than she was.
He was strange. He clearly didn't like her, yet kept coming over and insisted he wanted to protect her.
Xie Zhinan looked at his arms, which were even skinnier than hers, and pursed her lips. "How about I protect you instead?"
Xie Zhinan hoped to be a star that shone on its own. She didn't envy the sun's brilliance or seek the moon's purity. She only wanted to be a little star, quietly giving off a faint glow.
Fortunately, she really did manage it.

Coming soon: A Noble Lady in the Seventies
After spending more than twenty years waiting to be married, Wei Qingyi was on her way to a nunnery after her parents fell gravely ill. Her relatives had cut off her hair and forced her to become a nun. Just then, her vision went black, and when she came to, she found herself in an unfamiliar place.
The carriage beneath her was gone, and the ground beneath her feet was muddy.
A red banner before her bore unfamiliar words.
Her ears were filled with all kinds of vulgar speech.
Everything here reminded her of the strange land beyond the mortal world in the tales of the supernatural.
Shaken by her relatives, Wei Qingyi decided that her most urgent task was to find a good husband.
Her standards weren't high.
First, her husband had to be exceptionally learned, so they could have things to talk about.
Second, he had to be dignified and well-mannered, at least so they wouldn't look out of place standing together.
Third, he had to balance family and career, rather than neglecting one for the other.
She thought that since customs in this strange land were so open, and men and women could discuss books even though they dressed so improperly, it shouldn't be difficult to find a suitable husband. Women could even manage their own households here.
But why, by the time she got into university, was there still only one name on her list of candidates?
Wei Qingyi frowned and wondered: Were the men here just like the men back home?
Reader's note: An everyday-life story. At least ten thousand characters a week.

"It is in nothingness" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ real
Pre-collection of "The Lady Wears the Seventies" After more than 20 years in the boudoir, when her parents became seriously ill, their hair was immediately twisted by the tribe and sent to a nunnery to be a nun. Wei Qingyi's eyes darkened, and when she woke up, she found herself in a strange place. The carriage beneath him had long since disappeared, and the ground under his feet was full of mud. The red banner in front of her had words she was unfamiliar with. My ears were filled with all kinds of vulgar words. Everything here reminded her that she had come to the foreign country in the strange novels. Wei Qingyi, who was frightened by her clansmen, believed that the top priority was to find a good husband. Her requirements are not high. First, her husband must be extremely talented so that he and she can have a common language; Secondly, the husband must be well-mannered, at least not obtrusive when standing next to her; Third, the husband and wife must be compatible with their family and career, and they must not neglect one at the expense of the other. She thought that the atmosphere in this foreign country was particularly open. Although men and women were not dressed appropriately, they could still speak the language. A woman can also be a good homemaker, so it shouldn't be difficult to find a qualified husband. However, Why is it that after she has been admitted to college, there is still only one name among the candidates? Wei Qingyi frowned and thought, are the men here the same as hers?
Are Bai Xi and Bai Song two people? Who is the male protagonist?
Is it a cypress or a cypress?
