Reborn in 1980: I Empty the Family Home and Take My Educated Youth Wife Back to Beijing

In his previous life, Lu Changqing trusted his relatives and watched helplessly as his wife, Shen Qinghe, a Beijing sent-down youth, was forced to divorce him and return to the city. More than forty years later, with a successful career behind him, he discovered from twenty-seven old letters that had been hidden away that Shen Qinghe had waited for him for five years before dying of illness with regrets. Overcome with remorse, Lu Changqing collapsed in front of her grave. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in 1981, on the day his wife received notice that she could return to the city. His second uncle's family tries to seize the resettlement money and the house, and pressure his wife into divorcing him. This time, Lu Changqing refuses to back down. He tears up the divorce papers in front of everyone, sells the family's New Year pig, liquidates their belongings, and insists on accompanying his wife to Beijing. Drawing on the medical skills, knowledge, and business experience he gained in his previous life, he foils one scheme after another by relatives and local thugs. He rises from a penniless young man in the countryside to a leading figure of his era, while winning his wife's trust back through his choices and making up for his greatest regret from his previous life.
