I Transmigrated to the 1970s and Fled with My Adopted Son

Zhao Xiuxiu was a transmigrator. It had been three days since she arrived.

For all three days, she had followed a woman who shared her name, watching her get pushed around and act like a doormat.

"Seriously, I've never seen anyone so spineless. That woman hit your son, so slap her back!"

"Hey, hey! Why are you crying?"

"What's the use of just crying?"

Zhao Xiuxiu had lost count of how many times she'd raged helplessly like this.

The original Zhao Xiuxiu was supposedly married into the Gu family, but in truth, her parents had sold her off. Her older brother was getting married, her sister-in-law demanded an exorbitant bride price, and Zhao Xiuxiu was sold to the Gu family to pay for it.

Gu Jianguo was the fourth of six brothers. He was neither here nor there in the family. He joined the army when he was young, but even after more than ten years, he was still just a regular soldier, notorious in the village as a hopeless failure.

Worse still, he was kindhearted and generous, and had brought home two boys to raise before he even got married.

When Grandma Gu found out, she cursed him for three days and nights, declaring she couldn't afford to raise them and that he could go find someone else to do it.

With no other choice, Gu Jianguo spent money to get himself a wife. But right after she arrived, before they could even consummate the marriage, he was called away by a phone call. From then on, the original Zhao Xiuxiu's life became a living hell.

Her adopted sons were unloving, her sisters-in-law schemed against her, and her mother-in-law disliked her. Poor Zhao Xiuxiu was beaten to a pulp before she was even old enough to enter the workforce.

When her sister-in-law framed her again, the original Zhao Xiuxiu finally couldn't take it anymore and picked up the bottle of herbicide she'd hidden away for so long.

Zhao Xiuxiu cried out in alarm, "Hey, hey! Don't do anything stupid!"

But it was too late. When she woke up again, she had become Zhao Xiuxiu...
