1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

"Aunt Ye, don't bother with all that, let's just chat!"

"Okay, I'll have your Uncle Qin go to the state-run restaurant and get some food to go. We can have a good talk!"

Wen Li then took out the food. "This is the wild rabbit I traded with someone. I cooked it myself as a cold dish. Please try it. If you like it, I'll make more next time. The meat sauce is also homemade. Please try it and see if you like it!"

Ye Min's eyes were complicated. Song Yu had said that her daughter had never lifted a finger since she was a child. She wondered how much Song Yu would love her daughter if she knew that her daughter had learned so much after going to the countryside!

"It smells so good! I know it'll be delicious without even tasting it. But don't make it next time, don't overwork yourself. Keep the good food for yourself to nourish your body!"

Wen Li sensed the concern in Ye Min's eyes and waved her hand with a smile, "It's okay, I'm not tired at all. I only started cooking for myself because the food at the educated youth center was really bad, and then I came to enjoy cooking!"

Ye Min felt sorry for La Wenli's calloused hands and felt a pang of heartache.

"Okay, your mom is worried you're not doing well, and she calls me whenever she has time. Unfortunately, she's been too busy lately to visit you!"

"Auntie, I'm fine and I'm used to life in the countryside. Besides, I have money and ration coupons, so I won't overwork myself. Please tell my mother next time that I'm doing well and that she doesn't need to worry!"

"Okay, I'll pass it on to her. By the way, your Uncle Qin has already spoken to the commune. If you have any problems that you can't solve, go to the commune and find Director Guo. Your mother and I grew up together, you're like a daughter to me, so don't think you'll be troubling us, okay?"

Wen Li felt a pang of sadness at Ye Min's genuine affection. Having suddenly arrived in this unfamiliar world, she rarely felt the care of her elders, and she missed her mother a little!

"Yes, I know!"

Seeing that Wen Li's eyes were a little red, Ye Min asked her to try on the new clothes she had just bought.

Wen Li didn't want to spoil the fun, so she changed into a light green dress and even twirled around in front of Ye Min.

"Yes, she looks just like your mother when she was young, but even more beautiful!"

Everyone likes to be praised. Wen Li changed into two more outfits, and Ye Min didn't want Wen Li to leave. How could she bear to let such a beautiful and sensible daughter go?

When Qin Hai returned, he went to the state-run restaurant and packed a lot of food to go. The three of them ate and chatted, and their previously somewhat awkward relationship instantly became much closer.

Wen Li then learned that Ye Min's two sons were serving in the same army as the original owner's older brother, even in the same regiment. This made her even more certain that when the original owner had her accident in her previous life, Qin Hai and Ye Min had also had their accidents.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have stood by and watched the original owner end up like that.

However, the Qin family has no role in the original book, so Wen Li has no way of knowing what happened between them.

She thought about it and decided that she would still come to visit often in the future, because she didn't want to see anything happen to Qin Hai.

After finishing their meal, Qin Hai and Ye Min had to go to work. After saying goodbye to them, Wen Li went to the state-run restaurant to get some meat buns to go.

The meat buns at the state-run restaurant had thin skins and generous fillings, and tasted delicious. When she didn't feel like cooking, she could eat meat buns to fill her stomach.

After buying the steamed buns, I rode my bicycle back to the commune.

Instead of rushing back, she tidied herself up and went to Aunt Lin's place.

The young boy opened the door and greeted Wen Li politely when he saw her coming.

"Auntie, you've arrived! My grandma's in the backyard. Please come in and sit down; I'll go call her!"

Wen Li smiled and nodded, "Okay!"

A short while later, Aunt Lin hurriedly came out.

"Hey girl, why did you arrive early?"

"I was just passing by and thought I'd drop by to see how things were going."

"Oh, that's great! Several of them will hatch in the next few days. Come back next week, and they should be ready!"

Aunt Lin smiled so much that the wrinkles on her face diminished considerably.

The two chatted casually for a while longer before Wen Li took her leave.

"Sister, I won't bother you any longer. I'll come again next time!"

"Hey, wait a minute, these are vegetables I grew myself, take them home and try them!"

Aunt Lin took two bunches of fresh water spinach from the basket and handed them to Wen Li.

Wen Li's eyes lit up when she saw the water spinach. She happened to not have any water spinach in her space, so she could take it back and plant it.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"

"Hey! Why are you being so polite with me? It's all cheap stuff. My hometown likes to eat water spinach, so I grow a lot of it!"

"Okay, I'll come again next week. Don't bother seeing me off!"

After saying goodbye to Aunt Lin, Wen Li rode her bicycle back to the village. As soon as she arrived at the commune gate, she saw Uncle Li and the brigade leader there, with several young people around them loading things onto an oxcart.

Wen Li could tell from their clothes that they were newly arrived educated youth.

There were four men and two women among the educated youth who came this time. Wen Li immediately noticed one of the boys standing in the crowd. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall and stood out from the crowd.

Perhaps Wen Li's gaze was too focused, for the man turned around sharply.

Wen Li met the man's gaze, and when she saw his face clearly, even though she had seen many handsome men, she was amazed.

The boy had a buzz cut, and his wheat-colored skin made his features look clean and sharp. His eyebrows were slanted upwards, and his eyes were slightly upturned. His peach blossom eyes had a captivating quality that seemed to come out of nowhere. His nose was high and straight with clean lines, and his thin lips were pale when he pressed them together. His lips were full but not deliberately shaped, and his features were perfectly proportioned.

With looks like that, she would be a top contender even in today's entertainment industry.

The moment their eyes met, Wen Li seemed to sense the smile deep in his eyes.

Wen Li looked at him inquisitively, but he quickly switched to the look he gave a stranger, making Wen Li think it was just an illusion!

She was certain that neither the original owner of this body nor she herself knew this person.

The two looked away, and Wen Li stepped forward to greet the captain.

"Captain, Uncle Li, we're here to welcome the new educated youth!"

The captain seemed to be in a bad mood. When he saw Wen Li, his anger subsided slightly. He exhaled a smoke ring and nodded at Wen Li.

Wen Li glanced at the new educated youth, whose complexions didn't seem too good either. Wen Li knew immediately what was wrong.

After saying goodbye to the captain, he rode off quickly on his bicycle.

They also walked back home back then. Judging from their clothes, the two male educated youths and the girl in the yellow dress should be quite well-off.

These people are new here and inevitably spoiled. They'll learn how to behave after being beaten by the brigade leader.

Wen Li maliciously wanted to see them make a scene. She had been caught in the rain herself, and she wanted to see others soaked to the bone!

Back in the village, Wen Li went straight to the educated youth compound. Everyone was still at work, and Li Hong and Chen Jiahao were waiting for her there.

"Wen, did you encounter any new educated youth on your way back?"

"I happened to see them when I was in the commune; four male educated youth and two female educated youth!"

When Li Hong heard that there were only two new female educated youths, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The main reason was that the girls' room already had five people living in it, which was already crowded enough. If a few more came, there really wouldn't be enough room for them to sleep.
