After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

Wang Xiuzhi knew her heatstroke was severe, but she still didn't want to spend money on medical treatment.

She has just woken up and is already planning to be discharged and go home.

Chang San frowned and advised, "You cannot be discharged from the hospital in your current condition. If you experience repeated high fevers and fainting spells, it could seriously endanger your life."

Wang Xiuzhi said, "I know, I've been through the same thing back in my hometown. It's nothing, just a little rest."

Chang San had encountered patients like this before and knew that they were just afraid of spending money.

"Then I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Don't worry, it won't cost much."

Wang Xiuzhi wanted to refuse, but Commander Han interrupted her, "Xiuzhi, listen to the doctor."

Wang Xiuzhi immediately fell silent, meekly following behind Commander Han.

Lin Zhilan was writing prescriptions for patients on the other side, ignoring this side, but Wang Xiuzhi's gaze was always drawn to her.

She felt that Lin Zhilan looked down on her, but she also felt that Lin Zhilan was somewhat domineering, and even the men in the hospital had to listen to her.

In short, it's a very contradictory feeling.

Lin Zhilan was the first military wife she met when she came to the army, and her husband was the one who succeeded Lin Zhilan's husband in his position.

Wang Xiuzhi subconsciously compared herself to Lin Zhilan.

Wang Xiuzhi's mother had five daughters and one son.

She was sent to the Han family as a child bride because her family could no longer afford to support her.

Life was tough for a child bride, but at least she had food to eat while staying with the Han family.

After Commander Han was promoted to company commander for his meritorious service, her mother-in-law looked down on her, but Commander Han still insisted on marrying her.

Commander Han's mother often belittled Wang Xiuzhi and would instill in her the idea that the Han family had been kind to her.

Wang Xiuzhi grew up in the Han family and naturally regarded these words as gospel.

Over time, she also felt that Commander Han had been wronged in marrying her, so she worked hard to demonstrate her value.

She had always lived in the countryside, where her hometown was poor, and all women lived like that, so Wang Xiuzhi didn't think she was any different.

Lin Zhilan is young and beautiful, and has a respectable job like a doctor.

Wang Xiuzhi didn't understand what inferiority complex meant, but she knew that if Commander Han had married a woman like her, her mother-in-law would never have said she was unworthy.

With this mindset, Wang Xiuzhi never had any intention of harming anyone; she simply wanted to avoid meeting Lin Zhilan as much as possible.

To avoid making myself feel uncomfortable.

Having gone through this experience, Lin Zhilan kept her distance from the couple.

So, although the two families were neighbors, Lin Zhilan did not run into Wang Xiuzhi for several days because both sides deliberately avoided each other.

The adults were at peace, but the children started making a fuss.

Jiang Chengzhou led a fight with Liang Ping of the Han family.

Su Lang hasn't returned from Goose City yet, and Lin Zhilan has been summoned to the parents' office.

Jiang Chengzhou was quite "righteous". Although he brought a large group of friends, when he fought Liang Ping, he didn't let the others join in, but instead fought Liang Ping one-on-one.

Liang Ping was older than him, but he didn't have much of an advantage in terms of height.

In addition, Jiang Chengzhou had been training with Su Lang for the past two years, making him strong and healthy. He was able to hold his own against older boys and even made Liang Ping's nose bleed.

When Lin Zhilan arrived, the two children were still standing facing each other on the playground in front of the family compound.

If it weren't for the adults around them stopping them, judging from the way the two kids were acting, they would have pounced on each other and started another fight.

A crowd gathered around her, and when they saw Lin Zhilan arrive, they all started talking at once.

Lin Zhilan listened for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason. These people's words implied that they were criticizing Jiang Chengzhou for being too heavy-handed and bullying the newcomer.

Lin Zhilan looked at her eldest nephew.

Jiang Chengzhou stood there stiffly, his clothes wrinkled, but you couldn't tell where he was injured.

Before Wang Xiuzhi arrived, Lin Zhilan went to check on Liang Ping's nose.

Fortunately, it was just a superficial injury and nothing serious.

Lin Zhilan pinched the soft flesh on both sides of Liang Ping's nose with her thumb and forefinger, making him lower his head and wait for a while.

Liang Ping pursed his lips and did as she said.

Jiang Chengzhou pursed his lips. He felt a little guilty when he saw his aunt arrive, but he didn't hit her on purpose. He quickly straightened his chest again.

After a few minutes, the nosebleed stopped.

Lin Zhilan released her hand, letting Liang Ping massage her for a while longer.

She walked up to Jiang Chengzhou, raised her hand, and lightly patted his back. "Still glaring at him? What happened? Why were you fighting?"

His aunt didn't immediately criticize him. Jiang Chengzhou's eyes reddened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "He stole our family's money!"

"I didn't!" Liang Ping covered his nose, his voice muffled. "You're framing me; you have no evidence."

Jiang Chengzhou glared at him, "I saw you walk out of our house, and then our money disappeared. You're still saying it wasn't you?!"

Liang Ping's expression changed, but he stubbornly retorted, "You're talking nonsense. I was just passing by and didn't steal any money from your family."

The onlookers were already buzzing with discussion when He Guiqin, the head of the parents' committee, arrived.

He Guiqin was the wife of Commander Qin. She worked as an instructor in the cultural troupe and also served as the director of the parents' committee.

As soon as she arrived, everyone else immediately made way.

After briefly learning what had happened, He Guiqin frowned.

If it's true that a child is stealing money, then it really needs to be dealt with properly.

With so many onlookers, He Guiqin simply told Lin Zhilan and Wang Xiuzhi, who had just rushed over, to take the children to her house first.

Upon entering the room, He Guiqin first poured them tea.

Lin Zhilan accepted it and said thank you.

Wang Xiuzhi also said thank you, looking a little nervous.

All she knew was that Liang Ping had gotten into a fight, but she didn't know why.

When her boss called her to his home, Wang Xiuzhi's heart was pounding.

He Guiqin first asked Jiang Chengzhou, "Why are you so certain that Liang Ping stole your family's money?"

Jiang Chengzhou glanced at his aunt and said, "This morning, my second aunt and I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables. When we came back, we saw him coming out of our house. When I went inside, I found that twelve yuan was missing from the drawer."

"How do you know how much money your family used to have?" He Guiqin pressed.

Jiang Chengzhou found the question somewhat baffling. "I just know it."

Lin Zhilan put down her teacup and explained to He Guiqin, "Our family sets aside a fixed amount of money every month for living expenses. Chengzhou has always known this, and he's the one who usually goes to buy groceries and such."

He Guiqin laughed when she heard her say that, "He's still so young, it's good that you don't worry about him."

Lin Zhilan smiled faintly and remained silent.

Lin Zhilan trusted the children and never checked the accounts. Jiang Chengzhou, on the contrary, felt more responsible and was very conscientious in buying groceries and managing money.

Although Chiang Cheng-chou picks out what he likes to eat when he buys groceries, Lin Chih-lan doesn't think it's a big deal, especially since Chiang Cheng-chou also takes into account the tastes of his family.

He Guiqin realized she had gone off-topic when she saw Wang Xiuzhi next to her.
