60s: I Have an Iron Rice Bowl

Note: No transmigration, no rebirth, only a small golden finger.

Jiang Ruyu gets into a fight with her cousin from the next room over a job vacancy. She suffers an injury to her forehead but accidentally obtains a 'System' that rewards her with supplies just for checking in. She also sees a book—likely someone's wild fantasy—that depicts her and her two younger brothers meeting tragic ends.

Jiang Ruyu does not believe in fate. She is determined to live well, marry well, and have a good life. Decades later, she is not only a well-known entrepreneur but also surrounded by children and grandchildren, living a happy and satisfying life.

In contrast, the cousin who constantly compared herself to Jiang Ruyu was despised by her children, abandoned by her husband, and ended up completely alone.
