Synopsis
Please add "The Mastermind Behind the 1970s Golden Rice Bowl" to your reading list. Here's the blurb.
Blurb:
Qin Shuye was the meek, obedient first wife from a period novel, always accepting whatever life threw at her. Because she couldn't bear a son, her in-laws plotted against her, making her raise her husband's illegitimate child for her whole life. She made everyone else's life better and worked herself to death.
Being considerate gets you struck by lightning!
Reborn in 1975, this poor soul flips her miserable fate on its head.
She moves into the mountains, ready to bide her time and build her strength. But she never expects an unexpected visit from a wild giant panda to set her on the path to becoming the unstoppable heroine of a feel-good story.
The whole commune is baffled. What's the point of raising that beast? They're already the poorest commune around, and now she's causing trouble on top of it.
Then the meat in Qin Shuye's lunchbox keeps piling up: braised pork with preserved vegetables, sweet-and-sour ribs, crispy meatballs, spicy rabbit...
Her younger female cousin looks on, envious and jealous. "Has your family struck it rich? Why are you eating meat every few days?"
Qin Shuye clasps her hands. "Ah, thank the giant panda for its generosity!"
The daughter of the women's director wears the latest fashionable white blouse and basks in everyone's admiration, but before long, the crowd around her scatters.
The girls look at Qin Shuye enviously. "That skirt is gorgeous. Where did you buy it?"
Qin Shuye answers with pious sincerity. "I'm grateful to my giant panda!"
Her rival doesn't believe her and accuses the Qin family of profiteering. She brings people up the mountain to catch them in the act, only to see the giant panda strutting back with a wild rabbit in its mouth. It tosses the rabbit to Qin Shuye with a flourish, rolls over, then happily tugs a basket along as it follows her to harvest rice.
Her rival: "Ridiculous! I'm speechless!"
Her ex-husband goes into the mountains to hunt and sees Qin Shuye return from the remote depths, laden with spoils.
Her ex-husband stares in disbelief. "You're just a young woman. Aren't you afraid? The mountains are full of wild beasts!"
Qin Shuye looks innocent. "But I have a giant panda!"
The giant panda appears, radiating menace, and brushes past her ex-husband in a pointed warning...
The villagers secretly pray to the gods at night. "All you immortals out there, please bless us with a giant panda too!"
Before their dreams can come true, the Qin family, already millionaires who keep a low profile, moves to the capital with a university acceptance letter and their giant panda in tow.
The whole commune can only watch from afar. Why are we always one step behind?
When Qin Shuye reaches marriageable age, the giant panda, now living in a luxurious zoo, picks out a man for her. She gives it a thumbs-up. "Great job! Good eye!"
But the man's relatives make a huge fuss. "That little temptress is only after his money. Xiao Tang is a PhD who studied abroad, has no parents, is a capital resident, and owns two courtyard houses on the Second Ring Road. How could some country girl possibly be good enough for him?"
On the wedding day, the Qin family unveils the dowry list: a million in savings, ten villas, a shopping mall and a zoo, two prestigious schools, a foreign trade company, and a collection of gold and silver jewelry...
The groom's relatives and friends, all native to the capital, bow their proud heads.
Blurb for "The Mastermind Behind the 1970s Golden Rice Bowl"
Chu Ci is poor but beautiful. She marries a truck driver with a steady job, but behind closed doors he is a wife-beating monster, though everyone in the commune envies her good fortune.
Later, her husband is accidentally paralyzed, and her family refuses to let her divorce him. Chu Ci becomes a woman everyone praises as virtuous.
After raising her children to success, she thinks she has finally made it through the hard times. But her husband, paralyzed for twenty years, now thinks she's an old hag, and her stepson looks down on her for being uneducated.
Then a woman shows up with a son in his twenties, claiming the boy is her husband's child.
When Chu Ci opens her eyes again, she's back at the moment she gave birth to her daughter. To hell with being a good woman!
She picks up her daughter and heads out. Her stepson, face twisted with fury, blocks her. "Where do you think you're going, you old hag?"
Chu Ci: "I'm divorcing your dad."
Stepson: "Hah! Without my dad, you're nothing!"
Chu Ci kicks him into the pigsty. "You mangy mutt, born to a father and raised without a mother!"
*
Her stepson brings his father to pick a fight. When he learns that her family has kicked her out and she's moved into an abandoned porcelain kiln, he hurries over to see his stepmother's miserable state.
But when he gets there, he is stunned. There's glistening braised pork, a giant carp, ginseng chicken soup, and rich, silky honey milk tea...
His stepmother is tucking in with a bowl in hand. His chubby little sister is dressed in clean, beautiful new clothes, cradled by a handsome young man as he changes her diaper.
The stepson eyes the food greedily. "Dad, I miss that woman's cooking."
Her ex-husband yells abuse from outside. "No wonder you were in such a hurry to divorce me. You'd already hooked up with some pretty boy!"
Chu Ci looks up scornfully. "You think you're the only one allowed to have a golden rice bowl? Oh, right. You only have one, while I have tens of thousands."
Her ex-husband spits at her. "Bah! You think that pile of broken pottery is worth anything?"
Inside the house, a teenage boy looks sullen. In the apocalypse, he believed only in the survival of the fittest. Now he has been reborn as a homeless beggar, and, in a disgraceful turn, fainted from hunger outside Chu Ci's door. She takes him in and forces him to call her big sister, making him the baby's little uncle.
He gently puts the baby down, then clenches his fists and turns toward the barking dog.
The two men flee home with bruised faces, watching Chu Ci make a fortune, go to university, buy a house in the city, and marry a powerful, puppy-like man. From a village porcelain maker to a nationally celebrated master ceramicist, she does it all. Her porcelain really does become worth its weight in gold.
The stepson grips his useless father by the neck as he lies in bed, grinding his teeth. "This is all your fault! I was supposed to be a rich second-generation kid!"
Theme: Protecting wild animals is everyone's responsibility.

"The Fake Daughter of the 1980s and the Male Vixen" "The Master of Making Rice Bowls of the 70s" "I Have an Emerald City in the 1980s" "Return to the 70s to Assassin the Paranoid Villain" Please collect In 1982, a pair of sisters lived in Hongxing Hutong. The older sister, Jiang Xuebai, was tender and pretty. She was the daughter of Director Jiang of the state-owned steel factory. My younger sister, Jiang Wan, was an orphan adopted by the Jiang family and was a real fake daughter. People in the alley knew that Jiang Wan was good at reading, and they also knew that she was a complete white-eyed wolf. She often made Director Jiang and his wife sigh, and the neighbors all told her to kick her out. Only Jiang Wan knows that this family is all drama queens. Director Jiang and his wife adopted her as a living stand-in for their daughter, who had been frail and sick since childhood. After Jiang Xue turned twenty and successfully survived the tribulation, they tried every means to get rid of her as an abandoned child. Jiang Wan planned to save some money and move out to live alone, so she took a trip to the south during the winter vacation. When I came back, I brought a charming man with me. People in the alley rushed to tell each other, screaming that the man with silver-dyed hair was arrogant and looked like he was not a serious person. Director Jiang and his wife were heartbroken: "What did you bring back?" The man folded his hands and replied seriously: "Fox." Still a male vixen! In front of the neighbors, the Jiang family was disheartened and severed ties with Jiang Wan. Behind closed doors, they celebrated sending the god of plague away with a table full of chicken and duck. Jiang Wan rented an apartment with the money she earned from the south. Looking at his account balance again, he exclaimed: "Who will save me?" Male vixen: "Afraid of hammers, I will support you!" Everyone said that Jiang Wan was ignorant. Being Director Jiang's daughter was a blessing she had cultivated over several lifetimes, but she ran away with a wild man. Soon, people saw her man entering and leaving such places, all waiting for Jiang Wan to be dumped so they could laugh at her. In the 1980s when material life was not yet affluent, a clothing factory named Meihua emerged. The designed clothes are novel, fashionable, high-quality and low-priced. As soon as they come on the market, they become hot-selling items that people rush to buy. When it is most difficult to buy, you have to rely on connections to get one. Some people are curious, which genius designer is it from? Until a unique fashion show was held in front of the Capital Square, and men, women and children came to watch the show. The designer came out with the model to thank her, and everyone was amazed that it was her! Jealousy made Jiang Xue change beyond recognition: "Just her? How is that possible? She must be hooking up with the old man!" Male vixen: Dare you scold me, an old man?
