Su Mei, a diligent physician in her previous life, dies suddenly due to overwork. Upon transmigrating, she finds herself in the 1970s as a lazy and infamous military wife, known for her bad temper and 200-pound frame.
Her life is a mess:
Her overindulgent parents shield her from responsibility.
Her husband, a respected military officer, avoids her like the plague.
Neighbors gossip behind her back, and even dogs disdain her.
Initially, Su Mei decides to lay low, but realizing she can’t live in such dire circumstances, she rolls up her sleeves and gets to work. She sets out to:
Lose weight and reclaim her beauty.
Pursue higher education.
Start a business and build a fulfilling life.
When she hands her husband divorce papers, expecting him to jump at the chance to leave her, he surprises everyone. In full view of their neighbors, he carries her home, tosses her onto the bed, and in a deep voice, asks:
“Wife, can you give me a baby monkey?”
Su Mei retorts, “I have obesity genes. The monkey won’t look good.”
He replies, “Nonsense! Dumplings are best eaten hot, and wives should be plump. The ancients didn’t lie!”
What follows is a heartfelt tale of growth, love, and redemption in a ’70s military household.
