I Transmigrated to the 1960s, Where I Watch the Show and Enjoy the Gossip

City beauty Li Yanni has just dealt with her cheating scumbag boyfriend when a dog sends her to the late 1960s.

Just when things couldn't get worse, her family, while she's still dazed, grabs her by the collar and tosses her onto a train bound for the northeastern frontier.

She didn't watch all those movies, TV dramas, and short videos for nothing. It's only the Northeast. Your big sister Li, a professional woman, can handle it with ease.

But...

The old lady next door squints through a face full of wrinkles and asks, “Miss, have you eaten yet?”

Li Yanni: Uh... I'm just going to the bathroom. I don't need to bring food, do I?

The old man next door says, “Miss, it's so cold here in the Northeast. You don't have enough cotton in your clothes to withstand the depths of winter.”

Li Yanni... What? What is she supposed to be missing from her clothes?

Auntie Zhang says, “What a lovely girl! Bring over a little stool so we can have a chat.”

Li Yanni... Bring what kind of thing so we can have a chat?

Li Yanni: Where is this? Where am I? Why can't I understand human speech? Ah...

Whatever, it doesn't matter if she can't understand. They can watch the drama and enjoy the gossip, hehe...

The Old Wang family next door to the neighbors have a saying: when there's a stepmother, there's a stepfather. A seven- or eight-year-old girl is covered in bruises and reduced to skin and bones. She almost gets kicked to death by her stepmother, and after barely surviving, she nearly gets sold by her own father...

In the village, Old Fang's eldest daughter-in-law slaps her mother-in-law so hard she becomes half-paralyzed. Her awful son teams up with his wife to frame his lame younger brother, nearly sending him to prison.

“It's not that there won't be retribution, just that the time hasn't come” isn't an empty saying. A pan of burning coals takes Fang's eldest son along with his wife, and from then on the Fang family has no eldest son.

The cruel mother-in-law of the Gao family personally causes her daughter-in-law to miscarry, then drives her second son out of the house with nothing...

Old Mrs. Huang next door is sharp-tongued, mean, and unreasonable. The third Huang daughter has a child out of wedlock in hopes of marrying into a wealthy family...

The Old Li family...

The Old Zhao family...

Good grief, the gossip is so juicy and sweet, especially when it's about me...

After enjoying gossip for so long, who would've guessed that I would turn out to be the biggest piece of gossip of all...

Notes: “Have you eaten yet?” is an expression used by some elderly people to mean “Have you had a meal?”

“Cotton in your clothes” refers to the cotton padding in winter clothes, an old-fashioned expression.

A “little stool” is a four-legged stool common in the Northeast. Many people called it that in the 1970s.

Theme: Watch the drama in peace and live your life honestly.
