Synopsis:
[Period Piece] [Swapped Marriage] [Gruff Husband Dotes on His Wife] [Building Wealth]
In 1978, Lin Xiaotang's mother, who favored sons over daughters, traded her away in a marriage exchange. She married the third son of the Li family, who supposedly worked at a mine. Only after arriving at her new home did she learn that her husband wasn't a miner. He was an "ex-con" who had just been released from a labor reform camp! The villagers spat at the sight of him, while her family called her a money-losing burden who deserved to marry a criminal. But this dark-skinned, hot-tempered, rough-edged man saved his food rations for her, and whenever someone picked on her, he grabbed a shoulder pole and charged out to defend her. Lin Xiaotang went with her husband into the mountains to gather herbs and into the city to set up a stall. Their life grew better and better. Three years later, her husband was exonerated and became a key technical specialist at a state-owned enterprise! When her brother and sister-in-law shamelessly showed up to borrow money, she tossed a basin of water at them and sent them packing. You were the ones who traded me away back then, and now you're the ones who can't even hope to be my equal!
