Qi Mengmeng had just finished paying off her mortgage and saved up her retirement fund, ready to enjoy life, when she took the wrong medicine after drinking and was sent to the 1970s.
On her ...

The others who were tidying up their things and listening attentively immediately became unhappy.
"Who are you? If you say you don't want to lend it, then don't lend it. We don't agree to that."
Bai Jie lowered her head and said a few words to the child beside her, and the child ran away while Jiang Shengnan wasn't paying attention.
Jiang Shengnan was besieged by several people and was very unhappy. This was her house, so of course she had the final say.
What she was thinking was to kick these people out, move in, and directly change the locks, thus saving the step of breaking the locks.
But those who have already moved in are all family members of active or retired military personnel. They are not the kind of people who would move away just because Jiang Shengnan said a few words.
Just when Jiang Shengnan was about to start scolding, Director Sun from the Street Office arrived.
"Shengnan, right? I'm the director of the street office. This house was rented out by your parents. We have already told our street office about it." Director Sun saw the two families at loggerheads and spoke to Jiang Shengnan first.
Jiang Shengnan's expression immediately turned ugly.
"Director Sun, my parents are old and may not remember clearly. They agreed that this house is for me to live in." Jiang Shengnan explained reluctantly.
She didn't expect her parents to be so cruel that they actually lent the house to others after she went to ask for it back.
This means that he would rather give the house to outsiders than to his daughter.
Director Sun had already been informed by Professor Jiang and Gu Guizhi and knew what was going on.
"Your parents are the owners of the house. They came here in person and said that they wanted to rent out the house. This is in compliance with regulations. Now you are saying that the house is for you to live in. Otherwise, you should call your parents over and have it clear in person."
Jiang Shengnan felt uncomfortable because Director Sun's smile remained unchanged.
If she could call her parents over, why would she come here herself?
Even if Jiang Shengnan didn't say anything, the people around her would not let her go.
"Director Sun, we were just packing our things here, and this person came up and asked us to move. Who is she?"
Director Sun glanced at Jiang Shengnan and answered other people's questions: "This is the daughter of the landlord. Maybe they didn't discuss it before."
Jiang Shengnan glanced at Bai Jie subconsciously, and Bai Jie's face was full of surprise.
Although she had guessed it just now, Bai Jie still found it a little hard to accept the truth of the matter now.
Jiang Shengnan has cut off all ties with his parents, but he still comes to ask for his parents' house. This man is not only cruel, but also greedy. She decided to stay away from Jiang Shengnan in the future.
Although no one mentioned that Jiang Shengnan had severed ties with her parents, she still felt embarrassed. She reluctantly said, "I'll go back and discuss it with my parents," and left quickly.
Director Sun smiled at everyone and strolled back to the street office.
Of course he knew that Jiang Shengnan had severed his relationship with Professor Jiang and Zhang Meiling. This was a point that Professor Jiang had emphasized.
But he is the director of the subdistrict office, and he cannot say such words.
"I heard that the landlord's daughter has severed ties with the landlord, so why are there still people asking for the house?" Someone asked, and everyone looked at each other in confusion.
If that's the case, they will have something to say the next time Jiang Shengnan comes over.
He cut off all ties with someone else and still had the nerve to ask for their house. This guy is so shameless.
Someone else asked Bai Jie: "From what you said just now, you two still know each other. Has she severed ties with her parents?"
Everyone knew this, and Bai Jie did not hide it, but when asked anything else, Bai Jie said she didn't know.
When they heard that Jiang Shengnan had really severed ties with his parents, everyone showed contempt on their faces.
Bai Jie did not join in the discussion. She lowered her head to pack her things.
She has made up her mind to have less contact with Jiang Shengnan in the future, so as to avoid being stabbed in the back by her at any time.
Jiang Shengnan went home angrily without even cooking.
When Chen Fei came home from get off work, he saw the cold stove at home and frowned: "Why didn't you cook today?"
Jiang Shengnan then realized that it was time for dinner, but that was not the point. She angrily told her parents about lending out the house.
Chen Fei's face immediately darkened. He didn't expect his parents-in-law to be so cruel that they actually refused to acknowledge Jiang Shengnan as their daughter.
"Fade Chen, what do you think we should do? There are so many people moving into that house, including Bai Jie. They definitely don't want to give up the house."
Jiang Shengnan acted tough in front of Bai Jie and the others, but she showed a panic expression when she got home.
She had a feeling that the house really had nothing to do with her anymore.
Chen Fei looked at her impatiently. She couldn't even handle such a small matter. If she wanted to get the house, she still had to rely on Jiang Shengnan.
"Go look for your parents-in-law again. You are their only daughter, so they won't be so cruel. When you go, bring your youngest son with you. Your parents will probably soften their hearts when they see their little grandson."
As the saying goes, people of the same family stick together. This couple never thought about bringing anything when they visited the elderly. They just wanted to take advantage of them.
Jiang Shengnan finally breathed a sigh of relief after Chen Fei suggested a solution. She then told him about her encounter with Bai Jingjing at the Jiang family's doorstep.
"I remember you have a friend who is in charge of this. Go ask him. If you can help the Bai family get their things back, they will give you one-third of the money."
Chen Fei was not as optimistic as Jiang Shengnan.
If the Bai family’s things were so easy to get, Bai Jingjing would tell this to a stranger.
Don’t ever say that the older generation are old friends. These days even the blood ties between parents and children are unreliable, let alone friends.
"The Bai family had a lot of stuff back then. What if we can get it back?" Jiang Shengnan's mind was now full of Bai Jingjing's words about repaying him.
"Okay, I'll go ask someone tomorrow." Fade Chen nodded, ready to see the situation first.
The next day, Fade Chen asked someone about the Bai family's house, and then his face darkened. Things turned out to be just as he had guessed. It would be very difficult to get the Bai family's house back.
"What? Brother Fei, are you related to the Bai family?" Chen Fei's friend asked him.
"Someone wants me to help find out." Chen Fei didn't want to have anything to do with the Bai family.
"It's okay. The Bai family was not wronged, but they definitely can't get the house back." The other party reminded Chen Fei not to make any mistakes.
Fade Chen nodded, thinking about going back and telling his stupid wife to stay away from the Bai family.
Jiang Shengnan had already attended Bai Jingjing's wedding and gave a one-dollar gift, which made the Zhang family even more satisfied with Bai Jingjing.
Jiang Shengnan was very dissatisfied. She didn't expect Bai Jingjing to marry a man from a slum, and the man was so short. It was obvious that he was the type that would be difficult to marry. So she only ate a few bites of food and left quickly.
When she got home and heard Chen Fei say that the Bai family’s things could not be taken back, she immediately became angry.
"This Bai Jingjing actually dared to fool me and made me pay a dollar as a gift. I'm going to go find her."
