Preorders: Getting Rich from a Vegetable Patch [The 1980s] and A Lively, Bustling Courtyard [The 1970s]
Blurb: Yun Su, with her snow-white skin, flower-like beauty, and lovely figure, transmigrates into a period novel set on an island.
She finds herself drowning in the ocean, on the brink of death from the start.
According to the plot, the female lead will pull Yun Su out of the water.
Then the male lead, a regiment commander passing by, will witness the female lead's brave rescue.
Impressed by her kindness and goodness, he will save her from her abusive family.
After they marry, the female lead will thrive in the military compound.
She'll have twins, her husband will be promoted, and she'll revive the island's only state-owned seafood processing plant.
Meanwhile, Yun Su, the first stepping stone in the female lead's rise to success,
will have her clothes torn because the female lead is so eager to save her.
As soon as she reaches shore, a local hoodlum will grab her. In the end, she'll be forced to marry him.
He'll beat her after they marry, and beat her so badly while she's pregnant that she miscarries.
She'll ultimately die trying to have a son,
earning nothing but a pitying remark from the female lead.
Having transmigrated into the story, Yun Su can only laugh.
Drowning? Not happening.
Marrying a hoodlum? What a joke.
Being a stepping stone for the female lead's fame? Yun Su says, "No, thanks. Not interested."
Yun Su decides to take a different path: swim to shore by herself.
Instead, she ends up rescuing a handsome man.
Ji Xiangtian, the handsome man, can't believe his luck is so bad.
The hospital finally gave him time off, so he took a boat to the military base to visit his parents, only to run into an accident.
He thought he was as good as dead, but a beautiful young woman saved him.
And his healthy heart starts pounding so hard around her that it's downright alarming.
Ji Xiangtian decides to repay her with his life and pursue his savior.
Yun Su looks at the handsome doctor Ji Xiangtian and remembers that he's also supposed to be one of the female lead's stepping stones to fame. Reluctantly, she agrees.
Two pieces of happy news have recently come out of the military compound.
The second regiment commander and the military hospital director's son, a military doctor, are getting married on the same day.
And both are marrying girls from the same fishing village.
Everyone in the compound waits for the drama to unfold.
Instead, the second regiment commander's wife turns out to be beautiful, kind, and filial. She can catch fish, cook, and make money, and she even gives birth to twin boys.
The military hospital director's daughter-in-law, apart from being pretty, doesn't have a single good quality.
Yun Su watches the female lead struggle with difficult relatives to protect her reputation.
She watches the female lead grow exhausted from looking after the children by day and working late into the night.
Yun Su doesn't care at all what those gossiping women say.
Ji Xiangtian is changing their daughter's diaper. Seeing his wife's carefree smile, he can only think how wonderful life is.

Preorder: Getting Rich from a Vegetable Patch [The 1980s]
Blurb: Tian Tian works as a sales clerk at a supply and marketing cooperative in a small town in Guangdong Province.
She has heard that in the 1960s and 1970s, this was a coveted job with an iron rice bowl.
But by the 1980s, when Tian Tian is working there, the job has become pretty pointless.
Every day she hears about someone's son or daughter going to Shenzhen or Guangzhou to work and make a fortune.
Tian Tian finally decides to take unpaid leave and head to Shenzhen with her 250 yuan in savings to find work.
Clever and quick-witted, Tian Tian soon finds her footing in Shenzhen and meets all kinds of people.
Then an old woman tries to sell Tian Tian the two mu of worthless vegetable plots she owns.
At the time, Tian Tian thinks she's come to make a fortune working, so what would she want a vegetable patch for?
She turns down the plots and keeps slogging away, happily earning a few hundred yuan a month.
Years later, Tian Tian is still working for a living in her mid-thirties, while a high-rise has been built on those vegetable plots.
She hears the landlord made a fortune from it.
Tian Tian regrets it deeply. Especially after working for ten years, she finally realizes that you can't get rich just by working for someone else.
Then she gets into an accident and dies.
At the moment of her death, Tian Tian thinks that if she gets another chance, she'll never let that vegetable patch slip through her fingers.
Then Tian Tian is reborn.
Theme: Work hard, be brave, and prosper together.
I read an article before about a girl who was reborn. She tried her life again but the ending was not good, so she committed suicide, thinking that if she could do it again, she could do it a second time. Yunfeng wouldn't think so too, right?
I always feel that it is a bit unrealistic for such a selfish person to commit suicide for his son. He refused to plead guilty, saying that he was afraid of affecting his son. I felt more that he was afraid of his own future life.
In fact, I still want to know the reason why Yunfeng committed suicide. How should I put it? Although Gu has a great and upright status, as a man and a husband, he is particularly derelict in his duties. Of course, Yunfeng's intentions were not pure at first.
I thought I was just being cruel to my nephew, but in the end I was taking advantage of my daughter. How sincere are I to my husband? She chose him because of his status. He could give her protection. If she wanted an old house, did her ancestors bury something to kill Xiao Ji? There would be no successor in this line. She pretended to be pitiful and guilty, maybe she could get the house, but she didn't expect that Xiao Ji would be fine and the two families would break up? Or is there a bigger plot?
I don't really believe she's really dead
After watching it, I felt it was a bit unfinished. Many people didn't explain it clearly. It felt like it ended suddenly. The original heroine also died inexplicably because I felt that she was not someone who would commit suicide. How could such a selfish person commit suicide?
I feel like it's good for the protagonist to be alone like this, but I'm also looking forward to being in the limelight. Hehe, isn't your writing so wonderful?
It is impossible for a selfish person like Yunfeng to commit suicide
The novel is very good, although it is about family affairs, but it is also interesting. Why does Yunfeng have trouble with the heroine Yunsu? It is obvious that the two of them have little social contact and the heroine Yunsu is very homely. Does Yunfeng only need to live a better life than others? She is obviously a cousin. She got a good reputation because of Yunsu. In fact, she was so selfish that she couldn't even get along with her family. The four daughters in the second room of the Yun family, except for the Yunfeng sisters, all had a very good relationship. It was only her problem that Yunfeng was isolated. The sisters saw through her fake face.
The story is okay, but I just don't understand why Yunfeng committed suicide? Would that kind of person commit suicide?
"Beicheng Small Courtyard" caught the author a big bug~
Isn't it true that gold was dug out of the flower beds in Yangcheng? Didn't gold be dug out of the public toilet in Beicheng? When will gold be dug out in Siheyuan?
