Rebirth in the 80s: The Scholar Wife is Cute

Deceived into marriage, exploited for a lifetime as a nanny without pay, and finally beaten to death by her adoptive mother in front of her adoptive father's sickbed, Shen Mianmian's miserable life came to an end. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back at fifteen. Shen Mianmian vowed to escape her past fate, punish her malicious cousin and adoptive mother, but accidentally shone too brightly in the process. The third-to-last student in school suddenly rose to the top, becoming the candidate fought over by prestigious universities, causing a sensation among all the teachers and students... While others were busy studying, Shen Mianmian was busy starting small businesses to make money... While others were preparing for the college entrance exams, Shen Mianmian purchased the two most notorious haunted houses in Beijing in one go... becoming an oddity in everyone's eyes, they mocked her that even if she had the fortune to buy them, she might not have the life to live in them. While others graduated and were busy looking for jobs, the haunted properties purchased by Shen Mianmian were requisitioned by the government, earning her a considerable amount of demolition compensation. Those who had mocked her couldn't help but slap themselves twice... inquiring everywhere where there might be haunted houses for sale. Shen Mianmian, originally needing to borrow money for tuition fees, used the demolition funds and leveraged her rebirth advantage to buy a suitable plot of land and built a rental building, transforming into a Beijing's wealthiest and most prosperous landlady... One day, Shen Mianmian, carrying a bag of keys and having just collected the rent, was dragged to the Civil Affairs Bureau. "Shen Mianmian, it's time for you to pay back what you owe me."

Chapter 65: He Nan's Love Letter

It was just past eight in the evening, and Shen Mianmian wasn't very sleepy yet. With final exams just three days away, she needed to make good use of her time to study. She had fallen behind on too much knowledge in the past, and although she could now grasp things quickly, she still needed to look at example questions to understand some of the new material.

The books that He Nan had given her, the more important ones, she had already finished reading; only a few others remained, like those purchased for extracurricular reading. She rifled through them and then found an English book among the remaining volumes.

The book looked new, as if it had never been turned over.

In the 21st century, children start learning English vocabulary in kindergarten, but in the 1980s, this was something that was only begun in middle school, and Shen Mianmian's English had always been utterly abysmal.
