Synopsis:

The villager who was so poor that he couldn't afford a bride price, did not learn to do anything, and was idle, actually got a beautiful and rich wife from the city!

The beautiful and rich Bai (white) Fu (rich) Mei (beautiful), Zhao Lanxiang was reborn, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to find her husband in a hurry.

In their last life, they met each other in their later years, he had suffered through the ups and downs in life, and she was scarred. They warmed and healed each other in their remaining years.

In this life, she decided to give this man a good beginning, help him avoid the hidden arrows, and walk onto the bright road!

However... who could tell her why her steady, refined husband is actually such a cold, fierce, and thorny bully as a young man?

The rough man impatiently pressed the Bai Fumei into the cornfield, patted her tender face, and said fiercely: "You know, you can't run away if you mess with me again."

Impressions: This was cute and fluffy. And the time loop twist is pretty interesting~~ (but also confusing ^^;)

So our MC rebirths in her teens. Past life: MC chases after a guy, gets married to him, lost two children :'(, gets divorced, meets ML then live their life happily. However, ML at the time also has a lot of hidden injuries cos his life hasn't been easy (ML went to prison); same with MC, her body has been damaged so they didn't get to enjoy their time together as much. MC rebirths back to her teenage years and decides to find ML who should still be in a rural village at the time. He signs up as a volunteer to go to ML's village.

At this time, MC is still a well-off girl from the city and ML is a poor rural boy who is shunned in the village. Although ML is aloof, but MC is very...proactive and takes the initiative to get closer to ML. She is even the one who confessed XD ML, of course, didn't stand a chance against MC's cute offensive and they get into a secret relationship (It was very very strict during the 70s. Wow) She also supported ML to earn money via illegal means (there was no other way) and to study for the college examination. So even if ML feels inferior sometimes but he is very hopeful and confident cos he knows that his girlfriend likes him very very much. 

Unfortunately, MC's ex-husband also rebirth and he is very very remorseful and wants to get back together with MC to make up for everything that happened in their past life. After him and MC divorced, he found MC's diary and knew how much MC loved him; and what his mother and friend did to ruin his marriage and even caused MC to miscarriage. Ex-husband isn't actually EVIL...but he's too careless. He doesn't care enough about MC after their marriage, he didn't even know how depressed she was, he was busy with his career, he didn't even noticed that he was framed etc. He regrets everything that happened but it was too late cos MC already got together with ML.

In this life, he discovered that MC was also reborn like him, after finding out that ML's past has changed. When ML was caught doing something illegal, ex-husband made a deal with MC so she would break up with ML in exchange for a lighter punishment for his crime. Time skip and ex-husband did not succeed winning MC back. ML and MC meets after a few years , ML confirms that MC is 'from the future' and they are a couple. They get back together, rolled the sheets, got married, have kids etc. (Fast forward. lol) Extras is love life of their little bun and the past life.

Here is the interesting  (and confusing) part, cos after dying in the main story, ML gets reborn. He is reborn in MC's past life when 'his self' was in prison. This is his life if he didn't meet MC in his teens. He finds out about MC's life here (the miscarriage, the divorce etc.) and starts chasing and healing this 'damaged MC' and making her believe in love again~~ So yup, this is MC's past life and when she dies here she would go be reborn in the main story and when ML dies in the main story, he would go to MC's past life and this would go on in an infinite loop. XD It's just confusing how they began to like each other, cos ML (in Extras/MC past life) liked MC cos MC (in the main story) liked him. And MC in the main story liked ML cos ML in the past life liked her. So who started it? Lololol.

Anyways, except for that confusing twist, most of the story is very sweet and fluffy with occasional food porn and (illegal) business management. Except for the drama in the Extras (MC was really too pitiful in her past life, glad she married ML later) , it was lighthearted. The breakup due to ex-husband's blackmail was more of an excuse for a timeskip. When ML and MC met again later, they were more...mature and successful. No one could object to them being together anymore. There are actually a lot saying that ex-husband was too pitiful cos he didn't get the girl in both lives, and author-sama was just abusing him by making him rebirth XD Well.. he IS really kind of sad, cos he spent his past life regretting over MC and their dead children till he died. He rebirths and thinks that he has a second chance but in the end, ML still wins the girl. What was even the point of his rebirth...so he could spend it again regretting what he did to MC...?  Too abused!

Anyways, read this for sweet fluffy story set in the 70s.No heavy drama.
