After Being Laid Off, I Returned to My Hometown County to "Retire" Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, 32, was laid off from an Internet company in Shenzhen. She returned to her hometown in a small county in southern Hunan with the idea of "lying flat and retiring", only to find life there more "energy-draining" than overtime—her parents kept pushing her to marry, Aunt Zhang at the village entrance had a tongue sharper than any algorithm, and even Lu Zhao, her old middle school rival who used to bicker with her daily, had become the village secretary, constantly cornering her to help with rural live streaming. While she just wanted peace, she rediscovered the "warmth of life" when helping villagers sell oranges, and even uncovered Lu Zhao's unspoken feelings from years ago… When "slacking off" meets "enthusiasm", she realizes: the so-called "retirement" is actually reclaiming the self she lost in the big city.
