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

After lunch, Jiang Linghan took Chang Ning to visit the surrounding neighbors, get to know them, and give them some wedding candy. By the time they finished all that, the afternoon had passed, and the two of them ate dinner at home that evening.

Jiang Linghan asked her how she was feeling and if she was adjusting well.

Chang Ning said it was alright, "The people we visited in the afternoon were all very welcoming."

Especially the teachers' spouses, they wish they could stay home for dinner!

Jiang Linghan said, "It's normal for someone to have a good attitude when you first meet them. As for what kind of person they are and whether you can get along with them, we'll have to wait and see."

"There's plenty of time ahead, no rush."

The next day, Jiang Linghan was to return to his unit. Early in the morning, before Chang Ning was fully awake, she heard the bugle call. In her drowsy state, she felt Jiang Linghan get up, tuck her in, kiss her on the cheek, and then tiptoe out the door.

When she woke up, it was already eight o'clock in the morning.

She got up and dressed, and saw that the stove in the kitchen was already lit, with hot water bubbling away. After washing up, she started to eat breakfast.

Two steamed buns and a cup of instant malted milk powder. The buns were brought back from the cafeteria by Jiang Linghan that morning and were still warm, placed next to the stove.

The steamed buns were too big; Changning ate one and was full, so she put the other one back in the cupboard.

Then she opened the door, strolled around the yard, and stretched. From today onwards, she would officially begin her life as a military dependent.

The sun came out in the morning, so it wasn't cold. Changning walked around the room inside and out, noting down anything that was missing, and also made a point of checking the front and back yards.

Her mother instructed her that once the weather warmed up, she should plant some vegetables she wanted to eat in the yard and raise a few chickens. Not only could she collect eggs, but once the chickens were grown, she could also add some vegetables to her meal.

The yard is completely bare now, with nothing in it. Chang Ning thought that she would have to plant a tree later, otherwise it would be too hot to bear in the summer sun.

As she was pondering which tree to plant, she suddenly heard a knock at the door outside the yard. "Chang Meizi, are you home?"

Chang Ning quickly went to open the door: "I'm home, Sister Tian, ​​come in quickly!"

Sister Tian, ​​who is Tan Gaoyuan's wife next door, said as soon as she came in, "I brought you something!"

She was holding a bowl almost as big as her face. "These are sweet potato dumplings I fried myself for Chinese New Year. I brought them over for you to try!"

As soon as the cloth was lifted, a huge stack of golden glutinous rice balls was revealed. Chang Ning quickly said, "Sister Tian, ​​you've taken way too much!"

"What do you mean 'a lot'? My family still has dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes left. They were distributed by the army last year, and both kids are sick of them!"

Sister Tian said, "It's just that your Commander Jiang wasn't here last year, so you didn't get one. Take it home and eat it. If you like it, let me know and I'll send you another one!"

"Okay! You sit at home for a while, I'll clear out the dishes for you!"

"Why are you sitting? You do your thing, don't worry about me!"

"Row."

After saying that, Chang Ning took the big bowl to the kitchen, poured the glutinous rice balls into her own plate, thought for a moment, and then took out the leftover wedding candy from yesterday. When she went out, she saw Sister Tian looking around in the yard.

When she came out, she said, "Your yard is so smooth and sturdy, unlike ours, where it's all muddy when it rains!"

Chang Ning said, "I was just worried about this. The ground is so hard that I can't grow vegetables anymore."

"What's there to worry about!"

Sister Tian said, "When the time comes, have your Commander Jiang go to the back mountain and carry back a few loads of soil. Spread it in that corner, find a few stones to surround it, and it'll become a small vegetable garden."

Chang Ning thought about it and agreed, "Then you could pave the path you usually walk on in the middle of your yard, and use the sides to grow vegetables!"

"Hey!" Sister Tian waved her hand. "I don't want to think about it anymore. My two little bandits are useless. They'll make a mess of planting some vegetables. Let's just leave it at that!"

Sister Tian's two children are at that age where everyone hates them, and they are incredibly energetic every day. Chang Ning has only been here for a few days, and she can hear Sister Tian's angry cursing from time to time. Chang Ning, perhaps being an outsider, finds it quite amusing.

She handed the bowl over, and then gave the remaining candy to Sister Tian: "The child is still young, but will be fine when he/she is older. Take this candy back for the child to sweeten his/her mouth!"

"Ouch!"

There was about a handful of candy, packed in a mesh bag. Sister Tian didn't refuse, saying only, "This is too much. I'll just take a few!"

Chang Ning shoved the net bag into her hand. "Sister Tian, ​​you gave me so many sweet potatoes earlier and didn't say it was too much, but now you're complaining it's too much. Take them all, kids love them!"

"How can these be the same?" Sister Tian tried to stuff the candy back into her hand. "Those sweet potatoes are only worth a few dollars, how can they compare to candy!"

"Sister Tian, ​​that's not right. It's just a token of our appreciation; there's no need to distinguish between high and low status!"

Chang Ning said, "I'm new here, and I'll definitely need your help in the future! Please accept this, don't be shy!"

Sister Tian thought about her greedy son at home, gritted her teeth, and said, "Alright, I'll take it. Sister, just come to me if you need anything!"

In fact, Tan Gaoyuan's monthly allowances and subsidies are not low, but not everyone is like Jiang Linghan, who only needs to eat and not worry about the rest of the family!

Tan Gaoyuan is the eldest son in his family. Besides having two children to support, he also has to send living expenses back to his parents in his hometown every month. He also has several brothers who ask him for subsidies from time to time, whether it's for building a house, getting married, or buying this or that.

With so little money, and with each sum scattered here and there, the family can only manage to live a very frugal life.

Sister Tian usually turns a blind eye to these things. As the eldest child in her family, she is used to making sacrifices for her younger siblings since she was a child. After all, they are in the army, so they can still make ends meet.

But recently my mother-in-law came too. The old lady is biased towards her youngest son, and by extension, she is also biased towards the grandson that her youngest son gave birth to for her. She wants to take everything she sees into her pocket and bring it back with her.

Sure enough, as soon as Sister Tian got home, the old lady's eyes swept over her like they were on radar: "You sent so much, just a small bowl would have been enough. Is the oil free?!"

Sister Tian said casually, "They just arrived; who would be embarrassed by such a small bowl!"

"You're so generous!"

After saying that, he glanced at the net bag and immediately asked, "What's in that bag? Let me see it!"

"It's a gift that the girl usually gives in return."

Sister Tian called out, "Big Brother and Second Brother, come and have some candy!"

"sugar?"

The two children immediately rushed out of the house, shouting, "Mom, where's the candy? I want some!"

They only bought a little for the Chinese New Year, and the two kids have already used it all up.

Sister Tian gave each of them two pieces, and the two children cried out, "Mom! Mom, I want more!"

"What do you want?" Sister Tian snapped. "Have you finished your homework? You're not allowed to eat until you've finished your homework!"

"Oh."

The two children looked dejected, and the old lady immediately said, "Give me that candy, and I'll keep it!"

Sister Tian said, "No need, Mom, I'll take it myself."

After saying that, he turned and went into the house, and the old lady cursed him a couple of times behind him.

Chang Ning was unaware of this commotion. It wasn't that she was generous, but rather that Jiang Linghan had bought a lot, and even the most delicious food gets cloying if you eat too much of it. She didn't want to eat sweets for a while.

A few days later, someone suddenly notified her that her package had arrived.
