Bringing Pinduoduo to the 1970s

Shen Ci transmigrates into a book with PDD, becoming the foil in a period novel.

Both he and the male lead were abandoned children, but the male lead was upright, clever, and hardworking. He not only got into college, but also seized the opportunities of the Reform and Opening Up era to make a fortune.

The original Shen Ci stole chickens and dogs in the village, earning the hatred of both people and animals. Out of jealousy, he constantly jumped up and down in front of the male lead, making a fool of himself, and eventually landed in jail for theft.

Whenever anyone brought up the original Shen Ci, they had to add, "They were both kids without parents. Just look at Meng Shu, see how much he's achieved!"

Shen Ci: ... Thanks, I guess.

With PDD as his golden finger, Shen Ci had planned to keep well away from the protagonist and quietly live his own life. But when the young Meng Shu collapsed from hunger in front of him, Shen Ci couldn't bring himself to ignore him. He stuffed half a slice of cake into the boy's mouth.

Meng Shu had been a well-behaved child from a young age, but fate never rewarded him for it.

When his mother could only take one child back to the city, she said, "You're a good, sensible boy. Your little brother is still young."

When his rations were stolen and he wanted to report it, the brigade leader said, "You're a good, sensible boy. Don't make trouble for the village."

Through all those days steeped in hardship, Shen Ci was the only one who gave him a little sweetness.

A sweetness he'd never tasted before. Where on earth did Shen Ci get cake, cookies, ham sausages, instant noodles, and self-heating hot pots from?!
