The Delicate Beauty of the Seventies

Jiang Rou’s figure was soft and delicate, her beauty unmatched. Suitors eager to become the Jiang family’s live-in son-in-law lined up endlessly. In the end, the Jiang family chose Shen Chengdong—poor, burdened with four brothers, and penniless—to marry in. On her wedding day, Jiang Rou unexpectedly discovered that she was nothing more than a brainless supporting character in a book, living only to serve as a foil to her brilliant elder sister. According to the story, Shen Chengdong would toil like a servant in the Jiang household for three years, while their marriage remained cold and distant. Because she bore no children, her parents would instigate a divorce. Afterward, Shen Chengdong would rise spectacularly to become the richest man in China, while she remarried a twisted man, lived a tragic life, and became the laughingstock of the courtyard. Looking at the man’s broad shoulders and narrow waist, Jiang Rou fell silent for a moment and pretended nothing had happened. She thought: What’s the use of worrying about three years from now? Better to enjoy life while I’m young, one day at a time… But before she could savor this carefree life for long, her belly began to swell. — Meanwhile, Jiang Qiuyu was reborn at the age of ten. In her previous life, her younger sister Jiang Rou was clever and beautiful, living better than anyone else, while she herself was mediocre and unremarkable. Given a second chance, she vowed to seize every opportunity and never let Jiang Rou surpass her again! First, she would find a way to attend university. Then, before her family’s son-in-law was chosen, she would marry into a wealthy household. She thought that without her past life’s knowledge and advantages, Jiang Rou’s path would surely be difficult. Yet fate turned in circles. Jiang Rou still married the man who cherished her all his life, and even became the most beautiful broadcaster in China. As for Jiang Qiuyu, she was deceived, bankrupted, divorced, and ended up worse than before. Notes: 1. Courtyard life / live-in son-in-law / child-rearing / gossip / sweet daily romance. 2. Delicate beauty × doting husband. 3. The male and female leads are natives of the story world; the reborn supporting character is not a blood sister.
