Reborn in the 1970s: Transmigrated into a Big Shot's Lucky Little Pampered Wife

Su Yun, a modern surgical director, transmigrates into the body of a woman with the same name in 1972 rural China. The original host was a victim of domestic abuse, forced into a marriage with Qin Xiao, who abandoned her on their wedding night for her younger sister, Su Zhen. Qin Xiao beat the original host nearly to death and dumped her in the courtyard of his disabled half-brother, Xiao Yuan, framing her for infidelity. Su Yun wakes up in this dilapidated setting, inheriting not only the physical injuries but also the hostile environment of the Qianjin Production Brigade.

Xiao Yuan, a former battalion commander who lost the use of his legs saving comrades, lives in poverty after being cast out by his stepfather, Qin Aiguo, and stepmother, Xu Dongmei. Despite his frail appearance, Xiao Yuan possesses a hidden past and a sharp intellect. Su Yun quickly assesses her situation, realizing she is trapped between a vicious in-law family and a neglectful birth family. Her first act of defiance comes when Su Zhen and Qin Jiao confront her; Su Yun physically assaults them, slapping Su Zhen and breaking Qin Xiao’s jaw, shocking the villagers who viewed her as a victim.

Qin Aiguo, the team leader, attempts to intimidate Su Yun into submission but fails when she reveals knowledge of his corruption, including embezzlement of state grain and falsified work points. Leveraging this secret, Su Yun extracts one hundred yuan and medical expenses from him. She then proceeds to dig up the Qin family ancestral grave, retrieving gold bars Qin Aiguo had hidden there, which provides her with significant capital. With this newfound resource, Su Yun visits the commune black market, where she treats the boss, Li San, for insomnia and a shoulder injury using her medical skills, establishing a valuable alliance.

The conflict escalates when Qin Aiguo incites Su Yun’s biological family, the Su clan, to attack her. Su Yaozu, her younger brother, assaults her home, but Su Yun beats him severely, forcing his parents to retreat in terror. In retaliation, Qin Aiguo sets fire to Su Yun and Xiao Yuan’s hut during the night. Su Yun manages to save their few belongings and Xiao Yuan, but their home is destroyed. She then sets fire to the Qin family’s woodshed, ensuring the arsonist suffers a loss as well. The incident forces them to relocate to the First Production Team, where Wu Jiangtao, Xiao Yuan’s friend, helps them secure housing.

As they leave, Xu Dongmei attempts to guilt Xiao Yuan into returning, but Su Yun confronts her, exposing the stepmother’s neglect and hypocrisy. Xiao Yuan formally severs ties with his biological mother, choosing to build a new life with Su Yun. The story follows their journey as they navigate the political and social complexities of the era, with Su Yun using her medical expertise and strategic mind to protect Xiao Yuan and dismantle the corrupt systems oppressing them, while Xiao Yuan gradually opens up to her, revealing layers of his mysterious past.
