[Starting Tuesday at midnight, the novel will be premium. A 10,000-word update will be released then, so I hope you'll show your support!]
Coming Soon: Marrying a Roughneck in the 1970s. Please add it to your reading list. Blurb at the bottom.
Blurb:
Zhao Xinghe's father was an official on an island, her mother was a former chairwoman of the Women's Federation, and she herself worked in the publicity department. She had an impressive family background and a good job.
Most importantly, she was beautiful, with bright eyes, pearly white teeth, and skin as smooth as jade. Her long, straight legs looked dazzling in a military uniform.
Yet how could such a golden girl be the villainess in a novel about a reborn heroine regretting her past?
In her sleep, Zhao Xinghe quickly flipped through a book called Sweet Military Marriage After Rebirth.
When she saw that she'd made a fool of herself over a married man, not only ruining her own position but also harming the careers of her father, brothers, and sisters, Zhao Xinghe was utterly baffled:
Was that supposed to be her!?
How could she grovel like that over a man!?
Was a childhood sweetheart not good enough? Was having a career not more satisfying?!
Ever since Zhao Xinghe ran into her arranged match's new bride at the docks, people in the compound had been saying all sorts of things.
Some said Zhao Xinghe still hadn't gotten over her arranged match. Others said she'd gone there to show off. Still others claimed she was trying to break them up so she could take the bride's place...
As the rumors grew more and more ridiculous, the Zhao family finally couldn't sit still.
Just as the Zhao family was trying to figure out how to put an end to the rumors, a certain man, forced to flee to the island for refuge amid the political turmoil of the era, suddenly dropped to his knees in front of Zhao Xinghe's parents.
"Uncle, Auntie, I've been in love with Xinghe for a long time. I want to marry her!"
Content notes: 1. The original male and female leads won't be vilified or glorified. The protagonist will simply live a quiet life of her own.
2. Both leads have careers and are evenly matched. Neither depends on the other.
3. One-on-one, both leads are each other's first and only, body and heart.
4. Alternate history. Please don't scrutinize the details.
Coming Soon: Marrying a Roughneck in the 1970s. Please add it to your reading list.
A female college student who can't lift or carry a thing wakes up as the cannon-fodder villainess in a novel about educated youth sent down to the countryside in the 1970s.
Seeing that she has no hope of returning to the city, Jiang Xianhao gives up on the idea of supporting herself after two days of farm work and decides to find herself a long-term meal ticket.
She searches back and forth across the endless fields, eventually setting her sights on a broad-shouldered, brawny older roughneck who looks like he can really work.
The roughneck has no parents and a fearsome face, and no one has bothered to arrange a marriage for him, even though he's old enough.
From the moment the female educated youth Jiang Xianhao arrived in the village, he was taken with her. She had fair skin, a lovely figure, and a beautiful face.
Unfortunately, she was a pampered city girl. She would never be interested in a country bumpkin like him, who scraped a living from the land.
Unexpectedly, just a few days later, the pampered city girl suddenly came up to him and asked if he wanted to marry her.
Jiang Xianhao had thought that this man was hardworking, earned lots of work points, and could support her, so after they married, she wouldn't have to do farm labor anymore.
She hadn't expected that the roughneck really was very capable, and after they married, he truly never went "down to the fields" again.
Well... not to any kind of field in the literal sense.
Note: This idea came to me suddenly, so the blurb is a little rushed. I'll revise it later, but the general outline won't change.
If you're interested, feel free to add it to your reading list!
Theme: Keep your feet on the ground
I don't know why so many people are criticizing the heroine's parents now, and they are all friends who have only read a few chapters... I feel very sorry for this. I admit that my writing style still needs to be refined, and there are certain deficiencies in the control of characters and plot, but please believe me, I will study hard and work hard to correct it in the future! But for now, I still want to explain the point where everyone is arguing about the heroine's parents—— First of all, the background of this novel is an island in the 1970s. Although the heroine's mother is the former chairman of the Women's Federation, she is essentially no different from ordinary military wives. They do not have much power to manage various affairs of the military families' homes. Refer to the current neighborhood committees in the village. They basically don't care about these trivial matters that waste words. At most, when people fight or make a big fuss, they go to adjust it. More importantly, they are mainly responsible for the work issues of the military wives. Secondly, it is impossible for people to spread rumors in front of the person involved. The reason why the heroine's parents know about it is because they heard it from neighbors. Some readers said that the heroine's mother is the former chairman of the Women's Federation, so why can't they stop the rumors directly? You know, even in this age of the Internet, when people spread rumors, it is impossible to make them immediately. After all, it is other people's mouth. You can't control what they say. They don't say it in front of you. If you explain it directly, doesn't that mean there is no silver in this place? Some people also asked why the heroine's mother wanted to talk to the female co-star alone. The heroine's mother didn't do it secretly. She did it openly. Even if someone saw her, she wouldn't panic. And if something like this happens, if you don't go to the person involved, who should you go to? There are so many people talking about it, how can she find them one by one? If you take someone to find him, wouldn't it be even more bullying? Then, everyone asked why the heroine's father became a teacher. I can only say that he got up step by step through actual combat. As for forcing his daughter to marry early, that was out of the question. The reason why he said that at the time was undoubtedly stimulated by the heroine's rehash of old scores from time to time. As for the person he would introduce to his daughter, it was because that person was someone he was very optimistic about. He didn't want his daughter to miss out, and he definitely had no intention of forcing his daughter to marry early. As for male chauvinism, I can only say that it was a characteristic of the lower class people of that era. Both the heroine's father and the original male protagonist came from the countryside, and they were all affected to some extent. Finally, regarding the problem of the original heroine, there was a gap between her and the original male protagonist. She did not think that the heroine's mother came to her to bully others. After all, no one would have thought that the villain was around. As for the female supporting role, she is just a decent rural woman, carefree and not so thoughtful at all. The one who is malicious is her husband, not her. We may now think that division commanders, chiefs and the like are high-ranking officials with great power, but in those days, soldiers strictly abide by the purpose of serving the people, and there is no sense that you are superior to me because you are a senior official. There are still some points that I think have some problems now. When I have time later, I will revise the article as a whole. Thank you everyone for watching. If any of the points have stained your eyes, I am here to apologize to you (bow)
Please update it quickly 😭 😭
[Glasses] It's pretty good-looking. It's rare for a female protagonist to join the army, but is this one really a scam? Look, it's always being serialized
Is it true that there are people who do not wash their hair during confinement for a month? I once had no time to wash my hair for five or six days. My hair was oily and I felt cold and wet when I went to sleep at night. How did this kind of confinement without washing my hair spread?
Where is the gossip, I want to listen
Ding~Business fluid blessing update is stress-free!
Why is a paragraph repeated at the beginning?
It turns out that my brother-in-law is a fool 🐶
Maybe I really didn't have any money at the beginning. I guess someone invested in it.
If I change it, I won't be able to wear it this winter.
