**Title: Transmigrating to the 1970s with a Space**
Yu Xiang’an died unexpectedly while saving someone, only to open her eyes again as a high school student in a small county town in the 1970s. Before she could even rejoice at her second chance at life, she was faced with two major crises:
Her fiancé had been seduced by her stepsister, leaving her stepsister pregnant;
She was about to be sent to the countryside as an educated youth to do farm labor.
Yu Xiang’an: “…This won’t do.”
She believed in settling scores and righting wrongs—she neither wanted to be cheated on nor become a rural laborer!
After swiftly resolving these two problems, a new issue emerged—how to deal with the gnawing hunger that kept her awake every night?
Then she discovered her golden finger.
What was most scarce in this era?
Food and meat, of course!
Enter the game farm system—one-click planting, one-click harvesting.
After the reform and opening-up, the female lead started her business in the food industry, paving her way to wealth and reaching the pinnacle of success.

Years later, during a live interview, a reporter asked, “Your restaurants span the nation, including hot pot chains, fast-food outlets, and star-rated hotels. Some call you the ‘Queen of Cuisine.’ What would you like to say to everyone about this title?”
Before Yu Xiang’an could answer, the barrage of comments on the live stream exploded:
“Thanks for the invite, but that title feels a bit narrow. Besides the food plaza at my doorstep, the office building across the street is also mine. [Hands on hips]”
“Besides the office building, I also own a clothing mall. [Smug]”
“Besides the clothing mall, I dominate half the cosmetics market. [Smirking]”
“Besides cosmetics, I also have a small stake in the medicine cabinet at home. [Dog head]…”
**Synopsis 2:**
After dying together while saving someone, Yu Xiang’an and Lin Chuanbai transmigrated to the 1970s. Yu Xiang’an became the innocent stepsister whose fiancé was stolen, while Lin Chuanbai became the pitiful high school student whose spot at a worker-peasant-soldier university was taken. Each with their own golden fingers, they adapted to their new lives—until one fateful day when they bumped into each other on the street.
Yu Xiang’an: “…What a coincidence.”
Lin Chuanbai: “…Yeah, what a coincidence.”
Yu Xiang’an: “You also died back then?”
Lin Chuanbai: “Yeah.”
They exchanged a knowing smile—finally, they were on equal footing.
Yu Xiang’an glanced at his worn-out shoes, toes peeking through, and sighed, “Life’s tough these days.”
Lin Chuanbai looked at the barely visible wild vegetable bun in her hand and lamented, “Yeah, life’s tough.”
Then, with mutual understanding, they walked past each other, pretending they’d never met.
The next day, they ran into each other again—this time at the black market.
Yu Xiang’an stared at the wild ginseng in his hands—the very thing she wanted. “…”
Lin Chuanbai eyed the plump duck and apples in her hands—the very things he wanted. “…”
Life’s tough?
Hah! Men/women—can’t trust a word they say!
**Review:**
The female lead, after dying heroically while saving someone, transmigrates to a parallel 1970s world. In this era of scarcity, she faces the dual crises of a stolen fiancé and impending rural labor. With decisive action, she resolves these issues, thrives in a factory job, and eventually meets the “unlucky guy” who died alongside her. Together, they build a life, enter university after the reinstatement of college entrance exams, and ride the wave of reform and opening-up. Starting with the food industry, the female lead seizes the opportunities of the era, establishing a vast culinary empire, becoming a billionaire, and gracing the cover of *Time* magazine.
This novel is lighthearted in tone, smoothly written, with well-developed characters. Through the female lead’s perspective, readers witness the nuances of that era—her initial struggles, her relentless efforts to improve her life, and finally, her grasp of the era’s opportunities to amass wealth and reach the pinnacle of success. A rare and excellent read, highly recommended.
