Marrying the Neighboring Male Lead in the 70s

Jiang Lai transmigrated into a merged world of two books. As Jiang Lai, the female lead of the sweet romance novel "My Spoiled Little Wife in the 70s," she and Su Erniu, the female lead of the realistic novel "Stepmom in the 70s," lived two extreme lives.

Due to a cliché falling-into-water plot, both Jiang Lai and Su Erniu ended up with fiancés. The difference was that Jiang Lai was saved by Shi Cheng, a city hooligan. After the reform and opening up, to give Jiang Lai a good life, he became the richest man in the country.

Su Erniu, on the other hand, married Ye Anguo, a soldier with three children who returned home for a visit. She became a stepmother. Ye Anguo was a soldier his entire life, strictly adhering to rules, never taking an extra penny, and living a life of poverty.

The reborn Su Erniu didn't want to marry Ye Anguo again and live a "poor" life, so she found ways to get engaged to Shi Cheng, the future richest man. Meanwhile, Jiang Lai ended up with Ye Anguo.

One day, Ye Anguo angered Jiang Lai, and his three adopted children came to the rescue. Jiang Lai was surrounded by three adorable little rascals.

"Auntie Jiang, Uncle Ye is really handsome. Many unmarried women and young wives in the village like him. Auntie Jiang, you won't lose out by marrying Uncle Ye," said little rascal #1.

"Auntie Jiang, Uncle Ye doesn't smoke, drink, or look at pretty girls. And he's very obedient; if you tell him to go east, he wouldn't dare go west. And he would never hide private money," said little rascal #2.

"Auntie Jiang, just marry Uncle Ye. Even though he's already a regimental commander, he's not young anymore, and no one else would want him besides you," said little rascal #3.

Then Jiang Lai met Ye Anguo, a man who would blush in the face and ears when teased, whose legs would move at the same time when he walked shyly, and who would even bump into walls.

She, Jiang Lai, changed her marriage partner, but still had the script of a sweet romance novel. As for Su Erniu next door, changing her husband didn't change her realistic female lead persona.

PS: 1: A big bad wolf outside, a sweetie at home × a delicate sweet girl. 2: The three children are not the male lead's; the male lead has never been married. 3: I wrote this story because I saw many novels where city wives were portrayed negatively.
