A charming military wife travels back to the 1960s, escaping famine across five provinces before finally reaching the cavalry regiment at the foot of the Qilian Mountains, where she begins her life...
"Girl, I find her disgusting."
Wang Shufen looked into the distance; Yang Yufeng was in a terrible state today.
However, she didn't quite understand. Yang Yufeng didn't seem like a clean person usually, so how could she be so disgusted by the excrement? It wasn't like she ate it herself.
"Hmph, she needs to be taught a lesson."
Lu Fangfang vented her anger.
She learned her lesson and decided she would never let Yang Yufeng take advantage of her again.
Wang Shufen asked curiously, "Little sister, what did she do to upset you this time?"
Lu Fangfang didn't hide anything and told everyone about Yang Yufeng's two instances of climbing over her wall.
Actually, she didn't suffer any loss, she was just really annoyed.
Two days ago, because Yang Yufeng had worked for her, she treated Yang Yufeng and her family of four to a meal of beef bone soup.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely feel indebted to them.
Yang Yufeng, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened and instead clung to her.
"Pah, she's really shameless. Just punishing her won't do the trick."
Wang Shufen spat, "Girl, should I tell my man?"
"Forget it, Sister Shufen, let's not tell your brother-in-law. Mingcheng and Yang Yufeng's husbands are comrades-in-arms after all, they're in the same battalion, we have to save face for them."
Wang Shufen nodded, agreeing with that statement.
After all, we're all in the same group; it wouldn't be good to completely fall out.
"Girl, when Battalion Commander Zhuang comes back, you can mention it to him and ask him to tell Yang Yufeng's boyfriend that we can't let her suffer."
Lu Fangfang laughed and grabbed Shufen's arm. "Shufen, don't worry, I'm not one to be wronged."
She is no longer like when she first arrived, destitute and struggling to get enough to eat.
Now that she has Sister Shufen and Mingcheng around, she's not afraid of anyone.
Picking up the water bottle, Lu Fangfang shook it and said with a smile, "Sister Shufen, are you thirsty now?"
"I am actually a little thirsty."
Lu Fangfang deftly unscrewed the kettle lid and handed it over.
Wang Shufen took a big gulp, then said with a smile, "It's so sweet, girl, you must have put in a lot of sugar, right?"
"Hehe, it's not much."
Hearing Sister Shufen say it was sweet, Lu Fangfang was finally satisfied.
After Sister Shufen finished drinking, she took the bottle and drank a sip as well.
Her mouth tasted sweet, and she felt very happy.
After resting for a while, she asked Wang Shufen to check the potato pieces in the row to see if she had arranged them correctly.
Wang Shufen looked at the rows a few times, then nodded, "Okay, they're all arranged well, not too far apart, not too close together. Just bury them like this."
With Shufen's affirmation, Lu Fangfang felt relieved.
She picked up a hoe and carefully buried the potato pieces in the ridge, one by one.
Standing at the edge of the field, Lu Fangfang wiped her sweat and looked at the five rows of potatoes. She felt a great sense of accomplishment. After the autumn harvest, she could harvest at least one and a half sacks of potatoes from these five rows.
If they plant some more cabbage and radishes, and dry some vegetables in the summer, their family won't lack vegetables to eat in the winter.
Lu Fangfang rummaged through the vegetable seeds and found a packet of spinach seeds.
She took the plant to Wang Shufen and asked her about it. When she saw that Wang Shufen wasn't going to plant it, Lu Fangfang decided to plant some herself.
Since she started fleeing the famine, she hasn't had fresh vegetables for more than a few meals, and she's been craving them terribly.
Now that she's planted spinach, if she waters it frequently, she'll be able to eat it in just over a month.
"Hey girl, stop working for now, go home and have some food, rest a bit, and come back this afternoon."
From a distance, Wang Shufen called out.
Lu Fangfang wiped her sweat, feeling tired as well.
After packing her things, she carried them and followed Sister Shufen toward the family compound.
As she entered the residential compound, she saw several of her sisters-in-law in a familiar place, as usual.
However, Hao Mei's sister-in-law was no longer in the crowd; instead, Zhu Haiming appeared.
Lu Fangfang glanced at it a few more times, then left with Sister Shufen.
...
"Sister-in-law Shufen and Comrade Xiao Lu, are you out planting things?"
Zhu Haiming watched the two figures from behind, feeling somewhat curious.
A woman standing nearby immediately replied, "That's how it is. The two of them are clearing land on the riverbank east of the residential compound. I heard they're going to plant some vegetables. If you ask me, the little vegetable patch in front of our compound is enough to eat. Why are they clearing land?"
"Exactly, we can't possibly eat all these vegetables. It's such a waste."
"Hehe, it's fine if we can't finish it. I'll go ask my sister-in-law for some vegetables."
"Look at you, so useless! If you want to eat, why don't you grow your own?"
The sisters-in-law chattered away, laughing and talking.
"Pooh."
Yang Yufeng stood to the side, her face still somewhat pale.
She watched Lu Fangfang's retreating figure and spat fiercely.
She glanced at Zhu Haiming, her eyes darting around before she immediately moved closer.
She didn't know much about Zhu Haiming's background, but she knew one thing: this person was not short of money.
"Hai Mei, you have no idea, the other day, Battalion Commander Zhuang bought a whole military truckload of stuff in order to marry Lu Fangfang."
Seeing that Zhu Haiming was looking at her, Yang Yufeng immediately started boasting even more enthusiastically.
"Wow, that military vehicle has everything you could want: food, drinks, and supplies. There's even a double-door wardrobe with mirrors. It's like they brought the supply and marketing cooperative with them. It's so extravagant."
"Hai Mei, you're getting married in a few days, you can't let her outshine you."
Zhu Haiming's face showed a mocking expression.
This kind of provocation is a gross underestimation of her.
but……
Zhu Haiming looked at the others and asked, "Sister-in-law, did Zhuang Mingcheng really buy a whole military truckload of stuff?"
"Yeah, it was a whole truckload. When I was there, I thought it was our family compound, and that they were going to open a supply and marketing cooperative. What a disappointment."
