Mind-Reading: My Rental Apartment Traveled Through Time and Made the Village Jealous

share time: 2025-10-28 12:31:40

Lin Xiaoman, a modern office worker, has a "useless" mind-reading ability—she can hear people's secret thoughts but always gets cheated by her landlord and squeezed by colleagues. One night after overtime, she opens her door to find her rental apartment (and herself) transported to Xinghua Village in 1983! Villagers in shabby adobe houses hold hoes and call her an "alien witch," while her apartment still has instant noodles, ham, and a rice cooker that makes fragrant white rice! Using her ability, Lin hears the village's "under currents": Village Chief Li suspects the house is "evil," Aunt Wang salivates over her instant noodles, and Chen Jianguo (in patched pants) secretly plans to give her hidden sweet potatoes. She uses modern supplies to "break through": exchanging instant noodles for eggs, cooking the first pot of white rice for the village, saving the old party secretary with stomach medicine—but just as she fits in, she hears the old accountant's plot: "Write a report to arrest her!" Chen Jianguo even plans to sell his only ox to help her... What's more surprising? The time travel is linked to her late mother—who was a "famine refugee" from Xinghua Village, and this rental apartment is her last "souvenir"...
