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

Jiang Chengzhou moved around a bit, and it really didn't hurt anymore.

His expression softened a bit, and he awkwardly hummed in agreement.

Su Lang's lips curved slightly. "What do you want to eat for breakfast? Your uncle will make it for you."

Jiang Chengzhou spat out the foam in his mouth and said indistinctly, "Eat whatever you have, but we need to prepare lunch in advance today and take it to the fields to eat."

He's already a seasoned farmer, having accumulated a little bit of experience.

If he has to wait for his aunt to bring him food today, then yesterday's work was for nothing.

Su Lang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll cook a couple more dishes later and pack them in a lunchbox to take with me."

Jiang Chengzhou dried his face with a towel, folded the towel and put it back on the rack, then went to the kitchen to help Su Lang.

Wang Xiuzhi thought that Jiang Chengzhou had worked hard all day yesterday and wouldn't come again today.

Unexpectedly, not only did Jiang Chengzhou come, but Su Lang also came.

Wang Xiuzhi quickly went over to stop him, "Commander Su, what brings you here? No, no, you all go and do your work, I can finish this myself."

Su Lang unloaded the hoe he had brought, smiled, and said, "Sister-in-law, don't waste any more time. We're not just helping you; after you finish digging here, we'll have to go and help others."

Wang Xiuzhi opened her mouth, but was at a loss for words, not knowing how to refuse.

Like Jiang Chengzhou, Su Lang didn't waste any time and immediately got to work.

Wang Xiuzhi glanced at it for two seconds, then quickly turned around and went back to work.

Jiang Chengzhou dragged a basket and followed behind Su Lang, picking up sweet potatoes.

He had originally wanted to see his uncle make a fool of himself, to see if Su Lang would also dig up rotten sweet potatoes.

As a result, Su Lang's movements were so skilled and fast that he not only didn't break a single one, but Jiang Chengzhou couldn't even pick them all up from behind.

During a break to get water, Jiang Chengzhou followed his uncle closely, asking, "Uncle, how come you know how to dig sweet potatoes? Do they teach you this in the army?"

Su Lang glanced at Jiang Chengzhou, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Practice makes perfect. I came to this island right after graduation. As long as I don't go out to sea, I have to come and help the locals with their work during the busy farming season every year. Digging sweet potatoes is no problem for me."

Jiang Chengzhou was stunned for a moment, as if he were getting to know his uncle all over again.

With Su Lang's help, Wang Xiuzhi quickly finished digging up these plots of land.

Su Lang wasn't lying to her. As soon as he finished digging this place, Su Lang took Jiang Chengzhou to help another family.

The soldiers who were also helping in the fields laughed when they saw him. "Captain Su, you have to work with us. Why don't you transfer back?"

Su Lang laughed, "What are you so smug about? I'm here to help as Dr. Lin's family member, I'm not on your side."

Everyone burst into laughter.

The arduous farm work seemed much easier.

Jiang Chengzhou looked at his uncle with bright eyes.

Although he liked to bicker and be mischievous with Su Lang, deep down, Jiang Chengzhou hoped to become someone like his uncle.

A few days later, when most of the crops in the field had been harvested.

Sure enough, a major cold wave arrived.

As soon as the cold wave arrived, the temperature on the island, which was originally quite hot, immediately dropped, with the lowest temperature even reaching 4 degrees Celsius.

In the past, islands have experienced cold waves at this time of year, but never this cold.

Along with the drop in temperature came strong winds and heavy rain.

The boats at the dock have all stopped, and Su Lang can't leave the island, so he doesn't need to go to work for the time being.

Lin Zhilan's belly is getting bigger, and the hospital has given her leave. She doesn't need to go to work for the next few days until the cold wave passes.

Two very busy adults suddenly found themselves with nothing to do and could only stare at each other at home.

Especially Lin Zhilan, Su Lang doesn't let her do anything, and she suddenly feels a little uncomfortable when she has free time.

When she had nothing to do, she would take her two children to bake, fry, and boil sweet potatoes at home.

The two baskets of sweet potatoes that Wang Xiuzhi brought were used by her in various ways.

The two children were so hungry that they were constantly defecating at home.

Lin Zhilan finally couldn't take it anymore and decided to try something different.

Make sweet potato starch.

However, two baskets of sweet potatoes were not enough to make sweet potato noodles, so Lin Zhilan dressed up as Su Lang and went to ask if she could exchange some things with someone to get some sweet potatoes back.

It's called an exchange, but it's really just a purchase.

Of the families living nearby, Wang Xiuzhi grows the most sweet potatoes.

Before she could even go to the grain station to ask, the cold wave had already arrived, and now all the sweet potatoes are piled up at home.

Upon hearing that Lin Zhilan wanted to change, Wang Xiuzhi immediately offered to give her the item.

Su Lang naturally refused, saying that if she wouldn't exchange it, he would find someone else.

Wang Xiuzhi then agreed.

Lin Zhilan wanted a lot, and was thinking that if things went well, she would also send some to her parents-in-law, godparents, and second sister-in-law.

Su Lang would order 200 jin at a time, and after carrying them back, they piled up at home, forming a small mountain.

Next, Su Lang's task was to grind sweet potatoes.

We borrowed a stone mill from the cookhouse, cut the washed sweet potatoes into chunks, and ground them into a paste. Then, we stretched a fine gauze over a large wooden basin, scooped the paste into the gauze one ladle at a time, squeezed it by hand, filtered out the liquid, and left the potato residue.

The wooden basin contained milky white sweet potato starch slurry.

200 jin of sweet potatoes were used to collect two large basins of starch slurry.

The filtered potato residue wasn't wasted either; Lin Zhilan asked Su Lang to give it to the quartermaster to feed the pigs raised in the army canteen.

The remaining starch slurry was repeatedly washed and then left to settle.

Pour off the yellow liquid on top, add clean water, stir well, let it stand, and let it settle.

Repeat this process several times until the water becomes clear and the starch inside turns white; only then is the first step in making sweet potato starch a success.

Lin Zhilan was busy grinding flour.

It was Jiang Chengzhou's first time making it, so it was quite novel for him.

Because of the heavy rain outside, the children couldn't go out to play and had to stay at home.

Jiang Chengzhou and his friends communicated entirely by shouting from the second-floor balcony.

"Ma Xiaodong, what are you eating?"

Ma Xiaodong ran out of the house, shouting, "I haven't eaten! It's not mealtime yet!"

"Oh," Jiang Chengzhou exclaimed again, "My aunt is planning to make me hot and sour noodles!"

"What is hot and sour rice noodles?!"

"I don't know, but it'll definitely taste delicious!"

Lin Zhilan, who was waiting downstairs for Su Langli, was speechless. "Your nephew is such a show-off."

Su Lang chuckled and looked up at her, "This time it's not your child."

Lin Zhilan scolded him playfully, but couldn't help laughing.

"Aunt Lin, open the door for me." Ma Xiaodong knocked on the door from the outside.

"Hurry up and go!" Lin Zhilan urged Su Lang.

Su Lang put down what she was holding and opened the courtyard gate.

Ma Xiaodong futilely shielded his head from the rain with his hand. "Uncle Su, I'm looking for Aunt Lin."

The path in the yard was a bit muddy, so Su Lang simply carried him into the house.

Jiang Chengzhou ran downstairs quickly, "Ma Xiaodong, what brings you here?"

Ma Xiaodong chuckled, "I've come to see what hot and sour noodles are."

Lin Zhilan pointed to the starch lumps in the basin and said to him, "Look, it's right here."

Ma Xiaodong swallowed hard. "Aunt Lin, may I try some?"

Lin Zhilan: "..."
