The Villain's Daughter in a Period Novel

Yun Xiaoxiao did exceptionally well on the gaokao and got into the school of her dreams. The price of getting a little too smug was this: she transmigrated into a book.

Yun Xiaoxiao transmigrated into a book called Reborn in the Seventies: Becoming a Factory Director, a period novel about a female lead. The story began in the 1970s and followed Yun Shu, the heroine, after she was reborn following her husband's death. She dealt with her awful in-laws, split off from the family, and raised her children; started a small rural workshop; went to university after the gaokao was reinstated, earning the highest score in the province; turned her workshop into a nationally renowned conglomerate; and found true love along the way. It was a sweeping tale covering the first half of her life.

Watching the heroine focus on building her career had left Yun Xiaoxiao feeling refreshed, but transmigrating into the book nearly gave her a heart attack.

After pretending to be sick for half a month, Yun Xiaoxiao finally figured out her situation:

One: Yun Shu, the book's heroine, was her "biological mother."

Two: She was Yun Shu's eldest daughter with her "early-deceased" former husband, and she was also named Yun Xiaoxiao.

Three: As a child, she had been introverted. As she grew up, she became a little villain who couldn't think straight.

Four: It was now the Spring Festival of 1990, six months before her gaokao.

Five: The book had ended right at the Spring Festival of 1990.

Six: In the ending, the little villain's daughter would be sent to juvenile detention...

This is so infuriating! So infuriating! So infuriating!

There was no guarantee she'd get into university if she had to take the gaokao again!!!

And besides...

What? She was going to be locked up?

No way. A precious flower of the motherland, raised under the red flag, refused to break the law or do anything illegal!

But!

When faced with grandparents who were sweet to her face but bitter underneath, and uncles and aunts who were shrewd and calculating, she was determined to keep up her villainous ways to the bitter end!

As for her mother, the factory director, all she had to do was quietly serve as Yun Xiaoxiao's personal ATM until she became an adult.

She won't give her money?

Then she'll just have to keep being a little villain!

Before Yun Xiaoxiao transmigrated into the book, it was a period novel about a strong female lead.

After Yun Xiaoxiao transmigrated into the book, it became a period novel about a little villain.

Theme: People must first help themselves before they can help others.
