share time: 2026-01-20 00:38:18

In 1984, Chen Jianguo, who lost his wife Su Xiaomei to starvation and illness due to poverty in his past life, is reborn on their wedding day filled with regret. This time, he holds a "prophetic script": he knows the county video arcade will boom next month, understands Old Li's orchard apples can sell at high prices in the south, and prioritizes loving Xiaomei above all—slipping White Rabbit candies into her bamboo basket at dawn, using his first tape-selling earnings to buy the red dress she's longed for. Even when mocked by the village bully as a "poor ghost dreaming big" or cheated by merchants, he turns the tide with past-life wisdom. But as he grows wealthy and Xiaomei smiles again, Chen discovers a shocking secret behind his wife's "serious illness" in his previous life.
