The 1970s: One Wink from the Sweet Young Educated Youth, and the Cold-Faced Tough Guy Is Smitten

(Period setting + rugged man + marriage first, love later + sweet romance + face-slapping + building wealth)

A fair-skinned, delicate young educated woman arrives in a poor mountain village, only to be surrounded by rumors from the moment she gets there and framed as having lost her virtue?

Reborn, Lu Yuning gives a frosty little huff. This time, she isn't some helpless young educated woman people can bully.

They say she won't work in the fields, does nothing all day, and only spends a man's money?

Lu Yuning turns around, clears wasteland, and sets up a factory. Money rolls in!

They say she's ignorant and unfit to teach, and that she's leading the village children astray?

Lu Yuning produces her admission letter to a prestigious university, and the children make her their role model.

They say she shapes her brows, paints her lips, dresses provocatively, and sways her hips to seduce men, and that she'll soon cuckold her husband?

Hmph! Go ask that domineering man of hers!

He won't stand for it!

When the strong, brawny Xiao Yi hears this, his face darkens and he fires back at once.

"Keep spreading that nonsense and I'll tear your mouth apart!"

He and his wife are doing just fine!

She takes on the troublemakers, punishes the villains, works hard to build their wealth, and sets out on the road to success.

Xiao Yi: Treat your wife right, and she'll bring in wealth and fortune!
