Era: Transmigrated as the Cannon Fodder True Heiress

Tian Baozhu, a modern woman and skilled cook, dies after a night of heavy drinking and awakens in the body of an eighteen-year-old girl in 1970s rural China. The original Tian Baozhu had followed her childhood crush, Educated Youth Tan Yandong, to the countryside, only to be abandoned by him in favor of Cheng Baole, the brigade leader's daughter. Humiliated and pushed into a river by rivals, the original owner drowned, allowing Tian Baozhu to take over her life. Upon waking in the female educated youth dormitory, she immediately slaps Liu Qiuhua and Ma Zhenzhen, who are mocking her reputation, displaying a violent and confident demeanor that shocks everyone.

Tian Baozhu discovers she possesses a mysterious spatial dimension linked to her childhood home, complete with a fully stocked refrigerator, kitchen, and pig farm. This space allows her to store and retrieve modern goods, providing a crucial advantage in the resource-scarce era. She confronts Tan Yandong, who arrives with Cheng Baole to defend his honor, and slaps him for his hypocrisy and for using her meat and grain coupons while pretending to see her only as a sister. She demands full repayment of the debts he incurred, threatening to expose him to the commune authorities if he refuses.

Realizing she cannot stay in the dormitory after such public conflicts, Tian Baozhu seeks out Party Branch Secretary Liu, the political rival of the Cheng family. She offers him a bundle of fine noodles from her space as a gift to secure a rental house. Secretary Liu, intrigued by her generosity and the valuable gift, agrees to rent her a dilapidated house at the foot of the mountain. Tian Baozhu pays for the repairs upfront, ensuring she has a private space where she can use her spatial abilities without suspicion. She also encounters Xie Zhong, a tall, frail young man who lives in poverty and secretly hunts in the mountains, though their interaction is brief and distant.

To generate income for the house repairs and her new life, Tian Baozhu disguises herself and travels to the nearby town. She sells meat, rice, and noodles from her space on the black market, earning enough money to cover the construction costs and build a small reserve. During these trips, she learns that items taken from her space are restored the following day, allowing her to sustain her operations indefinitely. She also discovers that her physical strength has increased significantly, enabling her to defend herself against potential attackers.

Back in the village, Tian Baozhu faces further hostility from villagers who spread rumors about her character. She catches two women, Li Yanhua and Guo Cui, gossiping about her and drags them to the brigade headquarters. There, she forces them to apologize in front of Secretary Liu, using their own tactics against them to silence the rumors. She establishes a reputation for being fierce and unyielding, deterring further harassment. Meanwhile, Tan Yandong, pressured by her threat of reporting him, begins to scramble for the money and coupons he owes her, marking the beginning of his downfall.

Tian Baozhu moves into her renovated house, setting up a comfortable living space that contrasts sharply with the harsh conditions of the era. She plans to continue selling goods from her space to accumulate wealth, with the long-term goal of opening a restaurant once the political climate allows. Her actions disrupt the local power dynamics, alienating the Cheng family while gaining the cautious respect of Secretary Liu. The story follows her navigation of rural politics, social hierarchies, and personal survival, as she transforms from a victim into a formidable figure who controls her own destiny through wit, strength, and her unique spatial advantage.
