The beautiful woman in the quick transmigration novel has been targeted by the male lead again.

"Ningning, what are you looking at?"

Yan Shuqin stormed back from her neighbor's house and saw her daughter standing at the door holding a freshly picked lotus pod. She immediately asked, "Where did this lotus pod come from? Didn't I tell you not to go into the water?"

"Mom, I didn't go into the water!" Chang Ning turned the lotus seedpod around. "Someone else picked it for me!"

"Who? It's that Wang Xiaoliang again? If you think he's alright, you should settle down with him sooner rather than later!"

"What?!" Chang Ning stamped her foot. "He was just helping out casually, what are you thinking!"

Yan Shuqin took a palm-leaf fan from the wall and fanned herself, cursing that it was so hot. She then said, "What do I think you're thinking? I'm just worried about your marriage. You're already 20 this year and you don't even have a boyfriend! I've introduced you to so many people, but you don't like any of them. What are you thinking?"

"Didn't I already say I just want someone good-looking? The ones they introduced are all so-so!" Chang Ning dragged a small stool over and sat down next to her. "Fan me too!"

Yan Shuqin slapped her twice: "What's the use of being pretty? You can't eat pretty food!"

"Looking good makes me want to eat two more bowls of rice!"

Chang Ning said, "What's the rush? My older brother isn't even married yet!"

The Chang family has three siblings. The eldest brother, Chang Jun, is 24 years old and works as a carpenter in the village. The second brother, Chang Bo, is 22 years old and enlisted in the army a few years ago. He is currently a naval officer.

Yan Shuqin usually gets a headache just thinking about this, saying that other people's grandchildren are old enough to run errands while her family still has three bachelors. But today she was particularly angry: "Tomorrow I'll find someone to set your older brother up on a blind date!"

"What's wrong, Mom?" Chang Ning gestured towards the next room. "Didn't we already agree on everything?"

"Who told you that? They're taking us for fools!"

"what?"

Chang Ning quickly asked what happened.

Yan Shuqin said that a young man came to the Tao family next door today. His aura was unmatched by anyone else in the village. Neighbors gossip about each other, and as soon as the young man left, those who wanted to join in the fun went to the Tao family to find out what was going on.

Yan Shuqin went too, but she didn't get to join in the fun and ended up furious!

"They say that person is only 27 years old this year, and is already a regimental commander somewhere. He came here specifically to meet her daughter, Hongdou!"

"Looking for a match?" Chang Ning was surprised. "Isn't Tao Hongdou already engaged to my elder brother?"

"You just get engaged like that, without any proof or anything. Outsiders don't even know, and they don't even acknowledge it!" Yan Shuqin grew angrier the more she thought about it. "Pah, shameless bastard!"

The Tao family next door has a daughter named Tao Hongdou, who is about the same age as Chang Ning, twenty-one years old this year. However, the two have never gotten along well and can't stand each other.

However, Tao Hongdou does have some connection with Chang Jun, the eldest brother of the Chang family. Three years ago, when Tao Hongdou was eighteen years old, it was also the middle of summer. There was a long period of torrential rain, and the doorways of some low-lying houses were flooded.

When the eldest brother of the Chang family came back from outside, he found a person on the ridge of the field. He didn't know if the person was fishing or doing something else because of the rising water. In any case, the person accidentally fell into the ditch. The current was very strong, and in the blink of an eye, the person was swept two meters away.

Upon seeing this, Chang Jun quickly jumped down and rescued the person, only to discover that the person who had fallen was the Tao family's daughter from next door.

In the sweltering summer, clothes are already thin, and with the person falling into the water and then being caught in a downpour, Chang Jun happened to run into Yan Shuqin waiting for her son to return at the door when he carried the person back. So they took the person back to the Tao family together.

This matter should have ended there. After all, you can't just stand by and watch someone die. Chang Jun and Yan Shuqin didn't expect any reward. But Tao Hongdou's mother said that her daughter had been touched by Chang Jun and wanted to marry him!

Chang Jun quickly said that he hadn't encountered anyone on his way back, and his family wouldn't tell anyone, so the Tao family didn't need to worry.

Tao Hongdou's mother insisted that her daughter had lost her innocence and demanded that Chang Jun take responsibility!

Yan Shuqin immediately started cursing, saying that saving someone had only brought trouble upon herself, but she couldn't stop her son from being so dense, saying that he would be willing to marry Tao Hongdou when she reached a certain age.

The Tao family was satisfied, but Yan Shuqin was furious. When she got home, she gave Chang Jun a good scolding and asked him what he was thinking!

Chang Jun said he was worried that if he disagreed, the woman might do something foolish, and the person he had finally managed to save might die because of this.

Yan Shuqin was so angry that she stayed at home for three days. Ever since she married into Shangtang Village, she had been at odds with Chen Baicui next door. Now her son actually wanted to marry her daughter!

What terrible things have they done!

But her son was stubborn, and Yan Shuqin had no choice but to accept it, thinking that a mother is a mother and a daughter is a daughter, and that once she married into the family, she would be one of them.

When Tao Hongdou turned twenty, Yan Shuqin began to ask the Tao family when they planned to get married. The Tao family kept delaying, saying that either the eldest son of the Tao family was getting married, or the grandson was having a full-month celebration, or the second son of the Tao family was not yet married, and it was not Hongdou's turn.

"Now I understand! They were just stringing your brother along! Once they've climbed up to someone better, they'll dump him!"

Chang Ning was so angry that he was sweating profusely. He grabbed a fan and fanned himself vigorously, asking, "What did Tao Hongdou say?"

"What can she say? She was immature, what she said in the past doesn't count, and from now on, she and your older brother will have no connection in marriage!"

Yan Shuqin cursed, "Your older brother has been dragged to the point of being twenty-four by them, and this is what they do! They really don't get a good reward for their good intentions!"

"So the person who just walked past the door was here to meet Tao Hongdou?"

Yan Shuqin asked, "You saw it?"

Chang Ning said, "I saw it."

He had a straight posture and a tall back, exuding an aura of authority. His face was particularly striking; Chang Ning was immediately captivated by him at first sight!

Who would have thought they went next door to find Tao Hongdou? They have no taste!

"Chen Baicui is so smug. She said they arranged to meet at the state-run restaurant in the county town tomorrow morning. After the meeting, they can start preparing for the wedding. I don't know what kind of luck the Tao family had to get to know a regimental commander!"

Chang Ning said that everyone went home today, but Tao Hongdou hasn't met anyone yet?

"Who knows what they were thinking? I guess they came suddenly and wanted to leave a good impression."

Yan Shuqin said, "You just asked to borrow your white dress. You said you made an appointment to wear it tomorrow. You only wore it once and they've already got their eyes on it. They're always watching our house!"

Chang Ning immediately said, "I won't lend them, all my clothes are mine!"

The Chang family had three able-bodied men: the father and eldest brother were both skilled workers, and the second brother, Chang Bo, although serving in the army, sent his allowance back home every month. The Chang family was relatively well-off.

Yan Shuqin was in charge of the family accounts. Her family was well-off when she was young and was willing to spend money, especially on her only daughter. Other children in the village were lucky to have a new set of clothes a year, but Changning had new clothes every season. All the family's cloth coupons were spent on her!

The second brother of the Chang family would also make a point of exchanging cloth coupons with other people before sending them back.

This is also one of the reasons why Changning and Tao Hongdou next door don't get along. Tao Hongdou's mother is not generous; she wears the same clothes for three years and then wears them for three years. So she is always jealous of Changning!

Chang Ning thought of the young man who had walked past her house and realized she had fallen in love at first sight. She snuggled closer to Yan Shuqin, only to be met with a disdainful remark from Yan Shuqin: "Why are you getting so close? It's so hot!"

"Mom, what do you think about me going on a blind date with that regimental commander tomorrow?"
