Is Zhizhi Going to Start Hitting the Books Today? [The 1970S]

Reborn in 1970, with eight years to go before Reform and Opening Up, and just two days before Xia Suzhi is sent to the countryside. They say the male lead is only eight, and she's only six. According to the usual rebirth plot, she should cling to the male lead, crying and begging not to be sent back to her hometown. Then, using her status as the orphan of a martyr, she should stay with his family, grow up as his childhood sweetheart, weather all kinds of trials, and get a happy ending. But in reality... Xia Suzhi quickly turns around, grabs a little stool, and settles in to watch the chaos next door at the male lead's house. Though her parents are gone, Xia Suzhi herself has urban household registration. She's young, so she doesn't need to work and only has to focus on her studies. She gets a fixed allowance of money and grain each month, and a job will be arranged for her once she's an adult... Don't stop her. She wants to lie flat! Right now. Immediately! Making the right choices can save you decades of detours! Theme: Even as you work hard, don't forget to enjoy the scenery along the way.
