Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

The factory gave them three days of wedding leave, so neither of them had to work today or tomorrow. Lian Yanyan turned on the radio and started packing her things.

"I'll help you."

"Okay, hand me that box."

"Why is it so heavy?"

"High school textbooks"

Mo Yan helped her take the books out and put them on the table by the window. This room had been cleaned before the wedding. The wardrobe was part of Lian Yanyan's dowry, and the table was also newly made by Mo Yan. It had a small shelf on it and was used as a desk.

"Did you listen to the radio broadcast a couple of days ago?" Lian Yanyan asked casually. This was a parallel world almost identical to her previous one, with the timing and development of major events completely overlapping.

"You mean what happened at the central meeting?"

"Hmm, it seems like the college entrance exam is going to be reinstated. What are your thoughts?"

"I'm not going."

"I mean, I'll go."

"Go ahead, a comrade called me yesterday and asked about this. I was very unbalanced in my studies when I was in school, and the main thing is that I didn't attend classes properly for many days. But I asked him to send me a copy of the reference materials he got." Mo Yan had talked to her about the national education issue before, and at that time she told him about looking at high school textbooks.

"For me?"

"Of course, my comrade-in-arms was from the capital. On the battlefield, he was on the same ship as me, and we were both wounded and discharged at the same time." The number of people killed or wounded in that battle was not large, but unfortunately, he was one of them.

"You used to be in the navy."

"yes."

"Do you agree to let me take the exam?"

"This is a good thing, why would I disagree?"

"Don't many men dislike their wives being more successful than them?" Lian Yanyan asked curiously. She was just asking; it wouldn't stop her from taking the exam regardless of who disliked it.

"That's an insecure man. I'm not insecure at all. Besides, my comrade told me that this is an important signal, and the market may be opened up in the future."

"You want to do business?"

"I have this idea for now, do you agree?" Mo Yan looked at her seriously. Since ancient times, merchants have not had a high status, especially since he had a formal job.

"Go ahead if you like it. But I'll have to find a way to get you a good job after I graduate from university. That way, even if you don't do well, I can still support you."

"So you think you can take care of me now?"

"What? You want someone else to support you?"

"No need, you can support me." Mo Yan leaned in and kissed her. "Are you really that sure you can get into university?"

"I guess so." Lian Yanyan wasn't very confident. Although she had been studying on her own for almost a year and had seen the first college entrance exam paper in her previous life, she was worried that the paper in the parallel world would be different. She was a top student with strong learning abilities, and if the paper was different, she could only hope that her efforts over the past year would be successful.

"Work hard! There are still some cured meats at home, you can eat them all to nourish your brain. I want a college student as my wife," Mo Yan encouraged, patting her head.

"Then don't pat your head. If you pat it until you're stupid, you won't have a college student wife."

The two chatted and laughed as they tidied up the house. Lian Yanyan inspected her new territory. This house was bought by her mother after she brought him back. The house was solidly built and looked like it would last for decades without any problems. There were three and a half rooms in total. One room was where her mother lived and is now empty. Another room was used as a storage room. The other half was the kitchen. Their new house was where Mo Yan used to live. It was the largest room in the house and was divided into a bedroom and a main room.

"I'll go out and buy some meat later, and I'll cook you something delicious tonight," Mo Yan said after accompanying her to see the house.

"Is there no food left at home? Are there any leftovers from yesterday's meal?"

"I set aside some in advance, and I took it back to Grandma yesterday. Of the leftovers at the banquet, I picked out the best ones and kept a bowl for lunch. The rest, which weren't very good, I had Aunt Qian take back." In these days, everyone is short of oil and fat. Even though he prepared a large amount, he couldn't keep up with everyone's big appetite.

"Oh, then go buy it."

"Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"

"Biscuits?" Lian Yanyan knew he wasn't short of money, so she asked directly.

"We have some at home, look." Mo Yan opened the cabinet in the corner of the main room, which contained milk candy, fruit candy, biscuits in tin boxes, pastries in paper boxes, malted milk powder, and many other snacks.

"So many!" Lian Yanyan exclaimed in surprise.

"These higher-end items were sent by my comrades after they found out I was getting married. There are also some that I bought for you in advance. You can choose the better ones to eat first. If we can't finish the ordinary ones, we can use them as gifts during the New Year," Mo Yan instructed.

"it is good."

After their honeymoon ended, the two went back to work. Mo Yan was worried about her, so if she was on the day shift, he would wait for her to leave work together. If she was on the afternoon or night shift, he would ask Qian Dali's wife next door to go to and from get off work with her. Three members of the Qian family worked. Qian Dali took over his father's job as a driver in the transportation team and his wife worked at the steel mill. Qian Erli took over his mother's job at the steel mill and had a girlfriend but was not married yet. They also had a younger sister who was in high school.

At the end of October, exciting news for young people across the country was announced: the college entrance examination was to be reinstated. In Shicheng, where Lian Yanyan lived, the proposed date for the college entrance examination was early December, and a thick atmosphere of tension permeated the entire city.

There was no need to hide the fact that Lian Yan was going to take the college entrance exam anymore. Qiu Jing was very supportive, to the point that she took over all of Lian Yan's work and even brought her lunch back to eat in the office.

The Lian family, with Grandma Lian repeatedly confirming, "Yanzi, if you pass this exam, does that mean you'll be the top scholar?"

"Grandma, it's not about being the top scorer, it's about getting into university as long as you pass the entrance exam," Lian Yanyan explained patiently.

"Going to university is like becoming a top scholar, Yanzi. Study hard, our Lian family is going to have a female top scholar!" The old lady clapped her hands with joy. Her granddaughter was really promising. Yanzi had done what the whole family dared not even dream of.

"Grandma, I want to eat dumplings. Mo Yan doesn't know how to make them. Can you make them for me? I brought some meat back with me." Lian Yanyan coaxed her grandmother. She was okay at stir-frying vegetables, but they weren't as good as Mo Yan's. Neither of them knew how to make noodles.

"Alright, alright, Grandma will go make it for you right away. If you want to eat anything in the future, just have your uncle send a message back." The old lady stood up briskly and was about to go cook. If it weren't for the college entrance exam, given the old lady's personality, she would have at least nagged her granddaughter to learn how to cook.

Things are different now. Her granddaughter is destined for great things, so what's wrong with her grandson-in-law cooking? The fact that she won't let Mo Yan learn how to make dumplings is already a sign of her old-fashioned thinking.

He Lanying stopped her, saying, "Mother, let me go. You rest."

"No, Yanzi likes what I make, I'll go."

"Then I'll knead the dough and chop the filling?" He Lanying readily took on the two strenuous tasks.

When they were packing, even when Yan Yan offered to help, the two pushed her away, saying, "Go read your book, we don't need you."
