Synopsis
Two best friends from the present day, Xia Xiaoqi (夏小柒) and Qiao Ran (乔然), are suddenly thrown back to 1978. They wake up as the put-upon sisters-in-law of the Lu family, married to two brothers and surrounded by a domineering mother-in-law, a difficult sister-in-law and a stream of messy romantic entanglements.
Instead of swallowing the abuse, the two women join forces. They turn the script on the relatives who push them around, start a business of their own, and set about reorganising the whole household. In the meantime they work on their marriages in reverse, winning over their handsome husbands rather than being won over: a gentle, restrained schoolteacher who blushes at their teasing, and a stern soldier who ends up wrapped around his wife's finger.
The tone is a quick, satisfying revenge-and-romance comedy that mixes earning money with falling in love. A recurring thread is the friendship between the two women, who back each other up, and the story's title promise of leaving a bad marriage together with the mother-in-law.

反向拿捏 (Fan xiang na nie, roughly "turning the tables") is a Mandarin-language AI microdrama (AI漫剧) of 126 episodes in one season. It is listed on the Hongguo short-drama platform (红果短剧) under the tags 逆袭, 年代, 剧情 and 穿越, with a rating of 9.0 and a popularity figure of 56.13 million, and it stood at No. 5 on Hongguo's AI drama chart when read. A creator account named 火牙文化 (Huoya Culture) replied to viewers on the page.
The studio's own comment says the production was built on 3D modelling and repeated generation: it took more than ten versions of the model to make the character Qiao Ni (乔妮) gradually slimmer and prettier, and many shots for Xiaoqi were regenerated about ten times (反复抽卡) until the playfulness read without seeming affected. The studio adds that the work cost money as well as time, and thanked viewers for the response. It did not name the models or tools used.
Viewers on Hongguo have asked for a second season, and the studio replied on 10 October 2026 that it is welcome to gather there. Comment threads praise the friendship between the two leads and the elder brother's couple, while several criticise the second brother's handling of his wife and a perceived change in the lead's personality once he returns. A viewer on the page also calls it an AI manhua drama.
Beyond Hongguo, the series is listed on the Huangguo short-drama directory's AI drama category, and other YouTube channels have posted recaps and full-length copies, including a 126-episode upload described as a Chinese AI short drama.
