Start / Stadtromanze / 八零：我靠撒娇拿捏纨绔老公

In 1980s industrial Chengdu, the prettiest daughter-in-law in the steel-mill dormitory is also the one with the longest list of 'do-not-cross' notes pinned to the kitchen.

Wei Xiaoxiao did not pick her husband for his job at the state machine-tool plant. She picked him because the supply-coupon system of 1984 Chengdu rewards patience and she has a lot of patience. Within one year her husband's promotion-board files include a quietly-noted 'do not let his wife near the budget office' warning. Within five, the steel-mill's chief engineer has personally requested that she consult on the next workshop expansion.
