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

Wen Li was clearly a little restless. The plot had deviated too much, and if the male and female leads found her ahead of time, all her hard work would be for nothing. Just as she was trying to recall the original plot, a pleasant male voice sounded behind her.

"What are you looking for?"

Wen Li turned her head and saw Lu Zechuan looking at her. She didn't know why, but every time she was looked at by his deep eyes, she felt a little guilty, as if he could see through all her little thoughts.

It seems I'm still not strong enough inside!

"Haha, it's nothing. I was just looking for wild rabbits; I've been craving rabbit meat lately!"

"Why didn't you say you wanted to eat wild rabbit earlier? Let's go!" Lu Zechuan seemed oblivious to Wen Li's evasive gaze, his expression remaining unchanged.

The two circled around and spotted a gray hare in the grass. Lu Zechuan observed it for a while, then his eyes sharpened, and he threw a pebble precisely at the hare. The hare, which had been hopping around just a second ago, instantly fell silent.

Wen Li looked at Lu Zechuan with admiration. She had practiced for so long and thought she was very good. Compared with Lu Zechuan, she was far inferior.

"How are you so amazing?"

Lu Zechuan's lips curled up. "If I threw you into the deep mountains and forests for a month or two, you could achieve this level of skill too!"

"That's not necessarily true. If you threw me into the deep mountains and forests, I might starve to death long ago!"

Wen Li was telling the truth. She had drunk the spiritual spring water, which made her senses more acute, allowing her to reach this level. With her original body, she probably wouldn't have been able to get out once she went in.

"Then you still dare to go into the deep mountains alone?"

"I..." Wen Li's smile froze. Was this person testing her?

"I don't want to eat vegetables every day. I crave meat if I don't eat it for three to five days. The village is too far from the commune. If I want to buy meat, I have to get up before dawn. I'm just trying to earn my own living!"

"Then let me know if you want meat next time. I'm pretty good at catching pheasants!"

Wen Li secretly glanced at Lu Zechuan's expression. Hmm... she couldn't tell if he was testing her or not!

Since she couldn't figure it out, she just gave up. Let them suspect her; she wasn't doing anything illegal or disorderly anyway. She just wanted to steal the male and female leads' opportunity. The treasure was originally unclaimed; if the male and female leads could take it, why couldn't she?

After convincing herself, Wen Li's guilty and uneasy expression disappeared. She was completely unaware that Lu Zechuan had been secretly observing her all along.

Lu Zechuan's gaze lingered on Wen Li's neck for a few seconds, then he glanced at Wen Li's rosy and fair cheeks, and the fine beads of sweat on her forehead. It was obvious that Wen Li's face had not undergone any special treatment.

He had seen Wen Li's photos before, but she looked a bit younger in the photos, though her facial features hadn't changed much.

Wen Li in the photo has a shy smile, but it's easy to see that she has a gentle and quiet personality.

The Wen Li in front of me, although her personality hasn't changed much, gives off a cold and aloof feeling when she's not speaking, but when she does speak, she's cheerful and generous. The contrast between the two is somewhat disjointed.

If it weren't for their identical facial features and bone structure, Lu Zechuan would hardly have associated the girl in front of him with the younger sister Wen Xu had mentioned.

Wen Li has no problem with her appearance or her identity. Could it be that the countryside can really change a person's temperament and personality?

He didn't really believe it, but he had no choice but to believe it!

Wen Li noticed Lu Zechuan's intentional or unintentional gaze and knew that Lu Zechuan might suspect her identity. However, she was not at all guilty about this. In this era, there were very few TV dramas. Who would have thought that a soul could travel through time?

Anyway, she doesn't do anything that harms the country, so even if Lu Zechuan has suspicions, he can't do anything about it.

Besides, he doesn't recognize me, and I haven't seen my brother for two years. It's normal for things to change!

The two of them descended the mountain in silence, while the others went to work, leaving the educated youth compound empty.

"I'll process the rabbit and then give it to you!"

"Alright, then I'll leave it to you, Young Master Lu!"

"No trouble at all, after all, I should thank Wen Zhiqing!"

Wen Li didn't want to arouse his suspicion, so she stacked the firewood under the eaves and went back to her room.

She didn't find anything today, so she planned to look again tomorrow. Jiang Chen was punished by being sent to carry manure, so he definitely wouldn't have time to go to the back mountain these next few days. This was her chance.

Lu Zechuan quickly skinned the rabbit and thoughtfully diced the meat before giving it to Wen Li.

To express her gratitude, Wen Li gave Lu Zechuan some cucumbers and green beans.

Lu Zechuan took the green beans. "Thank you! Oh, by the way..."

"Um?"

"Could you teach me how to make meat sauce?"

Wen Li readily agreed to this small request, "Okay, what kind of meat do you plan to use for this stir-fry?"

"Would pheasants be okay?"

"Okay, you go ahead and chop up the pheasant and chili peppers, I'll come back and teach you in a bit!"

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away!"

After Lu Zechuan finished preparing everything, he knocked on Wen Li's door. Wen Li went over to check and found that he had prepared even more seasonings than she had.

This person knows how to manage their finances.

"Not enough seasoning?"

"No, not at all. I just thought you prepared everything very well. Looks like you're a good cook!"

Lu Zechuan smiled and said, "My cooking skills are so-so. I just like to prepare everything I need so I won't be caught unprepared when I need it!"

Wen Li directed Lu Zechuan on what to do, and the two chatted casually, gradually becoming more familiar with each other.

Before long, the entire educated youth compound was filled with a rich fragrance. While Lu Zechuan turned around, Wen Li added two drops of spiritual spring water to it. She had just noticed that Lu Zechuan's movements were a little slow when he bent over, so he must be injured. She had a soft spot for soldiers, so she wanted to help him in any way she could!

Once the chili sauce was ready, it was almost time to finish work, so Lu Zechuan took out the flour and started kneading the dough.

"Would you like some handmade noodles? I just made some chili sauce, you should try my cooking."

"Okay!" Wen Li hadn't had hand-pulled noodles in a long time. She had quite a few dried noodles at home, but they always tasted a bit off.

"Okay, go shred the cucumber, I'll knead the dough!"

Wen Li washed the cucumber and cut it into strips, while Lu Zechuan had almost finished kneading the dough.

After he rolled out the dough, he put the thin noodles into the pot. Once they were cooked through, he scooped them out, poured meat sauce and cucumber shreds over them, added some chopped green onions, and the aroma instantly filled the air.

Wen Li couldn't wait to pick up a chopstick and put it in her mouth. The noodles were chewy and refreshing, and the taste was no worse than that of state-run restaurants.

"Your skills are comparable to those of a master chef!"

"It's still not quite as good as the one you made yourself!" Lu Zechuan had tasted Wen Xu's chili sauce before. Although he followed the steps Wen Li taught him, it still lacked a certain flavor.

Wen Li wasn't modest at all, "You are indeed a little lacking. Lu Zhiqing, practice more, and I'll be waiting for the day you surpass me!"

Meeting Wen Li's sly, smiling eyes, Lu Zechuan's face unconsciously broke into a smile.

"OK!"
