The Love-Struck Heroine’s Aunt Decides to Lie Flat [The 1980S]

He Xiaoya is staying at her eldest sister's home. Her sister has an adopted daughter around the same age as her. Her niece is a hopeless romantic who gave up on attending a better university for a man and went to vocational college instead. The man took a frontline job at a factory. Her eldest sister introduced her niece to a manager at the same factory, but the niece said that in heavy industry, frontline workers earn more than managers. He Xiaoya was surprised. Fresh university graduates earn less than migrant workers, but after working for a few years, university graduates can earn more, and they get to sit in an office instead of working so hard. Then her eldest sister gave He Xiaoya the things she'd intended for her daughter. Her sister wanted to jolt her daughter back onto the right path. He Xiaoya said, “I'm in!” Her eldest sister also introduced her to a man from a good family, a future domineering CEO. He Xiaoya said, “I'm even more in!” This made her niece furious. She screamed hysterically, “Auntie is just someone who has to live under someone else's roof!” Her eldest sister slapped her daughter hard. “At least she and I are related by blood. What about you?” He Xiaoya: “I can lie flat now!” ·Sweet romance and doting· Completed story: The Match Was Called Off, and the Big Shot Came Knocking That Very Night [The 1980s], book number: 8032701 Jiang Mengyao awakens memories of her past life and discovers that she's become the childhood friend of a domineering male lead, also known as his backup option.
