Back to the 1970s: Widowed, Remarried to a Hunk, and Outsmarted the Evil Family

Back to the 1970s: Widowed, Remarried to a Hunk, and Outsmarted the Evil Family Plot:

Modern corporate slave Lin Xiaoman travels back to a 1970s mountain village while burning the midnight oil on a project. She's barely become a soldier's wife when she gets the news of her husband Gu Huai's death—her mother-in-law immediately calls her a 'husband-killing jinx,' her sister-in-law steals her survivor's pension, and they even try to sell her to an old bachelor for a betrothal gift. Just when she's at her wit's end, Chen Mo, a handsome retired technician, steps in: 'She's my fiancée. Lay a hand on her, and you'll answer to me.' Lin Xiaoman marries Chen Mo, but life in the Chen family isn't easy—her mother-in-law despises her 'second marriage' and makes her do all the tough chores, while her sister-in-law, jealous of Chen Mo's love for her, slips croton into her porridge and spreads gossip about her 'seducing men.' But Lin Xiaoman, a former HR professional, fights back with modern tactics: a 'housework roster' to stop her mother-in-law's favoritism, 'market research' to help her sister-in-law get back scammed cloth coupons, and teaching villagers to make handicrafts for extra money. As for Chen Mo? He's cold on the outside but warm on the inside—secretly fixing her fountain pen, saving her the last warm sugar bun, and even telling his mother: 'If you make her leave, I'll leave too.' Just as their love grows, Lin Xiaoman finds Gu Huai's notebook in Chen Mo's drawer. The last line sends chills down her spine: 'Xiaoman, I'm not dead. Don't believe anyone...'
