Description
Blurb 1: Yu Xiang’an dies unexpectedly while saving someone but wakes up as a high school student in a small county in the 1970s. Just as she’s about to celebrate her second chance at life, she faces two major challenges: 1. Her fiancé is seduced by her stepsister, who ends up pregnant. 2. She’s about to be sent to the countryside as a “sent-down youth” to farm. Yu Xiang’an: “..This won’t do.” With a fierce and decisive attitude, she resolves both problems in no time. But then another issue arises-how can she fall asleep at night when she’s starving? That’s when she discovers her cheat: a farming game system! In this era, what’s in high demand? Food and meat! The system allows her to plant crops and harvest them instantly. With this golden finger, Yu Xiang’an stockpiles resources and eventually rises to prominence. After the reform and opening-up period, she builds a food empire, paving her way to wealth and success. Years later, during a live interview: The reporter asks, “Your restaurant chain spans the country, from hot pot to fast food to five-star hotels. Many people call you the ‘King of Dining.’ What would you like to say about this title?” Before Yu Xiang’an can answer, the live comments explode: • “Thanks for the invite. That title’s too narrow—aside from the food court outside my door, the office building across the street also belongs to her. [hands on hips] ” • “Not just the office building—she also owns a share in the fashion mall. [smug] ” • “And let’s not forget, she dominates half of the cosmetics industry too. [evil grin] ” • “Oh, and don’t overlook the first-aid kits at home. She’s got a stake in that too! [doge face] ” … Blurb 2: Both Yu Xiang’an and Lin Chuanbai die while saving others and end up transmigrating to the 1970s. Yu Xiang’an becomes the innocent stepsister who was cheated on by her stepsister, while Lin Chuanbai is the unlucky student whose slot at the prestigious Worker-Peasant-Soldier University was stolen. Both must adapt to their new lives, equipped with their own golden fingers. One fateful day, they cross paths. Yu Xiang’an: “…What a coincidence.” Lin Chuanbai: “Yeah, really coincidental.” Yu Xiang’an: “Did you die back then too?” Lin Chuanbai: “Yes.” They exchange a knowing look and walk away, pretending not to recognize each other. The next day, they meet again—this time at the black market. Yu Xiang’an eyes the wild ginseng in his hand. “…!” Lin Chuanbai looks at the fat duck and apples in hers. “…!” “Life is hard?” Ha! The man’s/woman’s words are nothing but lies! Reading Guide: Focus on career development and slice-of-life in the 1970s.

My Thoughts on Bringing a Farming Game System to the 1970s
"Bringing a Farming Game System to the 1970s" is a completed novel that I found myself drawn to for its unique premise: a female protagonist with a farming system transported to a challenging era. While the overall rating is good, my experience was mixed.
First Impressions
The initial chapters hooked me with the promise of a slice-of-life story set against the backdrop of 1970s China. The idea of a farming system aiding survival and prosperity was intriguing. However, I quickly realized this wasn't going to be a simple, feel-good story. Certain family dynamics raised some red flags early on.
What Works Well
The novel excels in its world-building. I felt immersed in the period, understanding the social and economic constraints of the time. The slice-of-life aspects are well-executed. The author paints a vivid picture of the protagonist's struggles and triumphs as she navigates business management, cooking, and building a life for herself and her family. Many will also be pleased to find that this novel includes a harmonious family dynamic. The system provides a subtle boost, never overshadowing the MC's own resourcefulness and intelligence. The romance is solid, and the family dynamics, when not problematic, are heartwarming.
Areas of Concern
My main issue lies with some of the character interactions, particularly concerning the stepmother. While some readers might find the MC's family's treatment of her justified, I found it unsettling. The stepmother's apparent selflessness and the family's subsequent actions created a sense of unease that lingered throughout my reading experience. Additionally, the novel seems to lose focus towards the end, introducing too many characters and storylines that detract from the core narrative. The time skips, while keeping the plot moving, sometimes felt jarring and lacked necessary elaboration.

Final Verdict
"Bringing a Farming Game System to the 1970s" is a decent read, especially if you enjoy slice-of-life novels with a strong female lead and a touch of farming simulator. However, the problematic family dynamics and the somewhat unfocused ending prevent it from being a truly outstanding work. I'd recommend it with reservations, advising readers to be prepared for some morally grey areas and a narrative that loses some steam in its later stages.
