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

On the morning of the third day, the elderly couple, carrying large and small bags, along with their youngest son and granddaughter, left the village where they had lived for half their lives, ready to embrace a new life.

Under Wu Qingya's influence over time, the original owner didn't have much affection for her relatives in her hometown. After Lian Dazhu passed away, she never contacted her relatives in her hometown again. Lian's second uncle tried to find her, but when he inquired at the steel factory gate, he unfortunately encountered Lin Feng, who had replaced her and was working in the security department of the factory. Lin Feng managed to scare and coax Lian's second uncle away. From then on, the Lian family completely lost contact with the original owner.

Around 4 p.m., Lian Yanyan and her group returned to the steel mill's residential area. Aunt Zhang, who lived next door, had just returned from buying groceries when she saw the Lian family's gate open.

"Comrade Wu?" Aunt Zhang called out tentatively at the door, unsure if it was Wu Qingya who had returned.

"Aunt Zhang, it's me," Lian Yanyan replied. Wu Qingya's ex-husband's farm was far away, and it would take nearly ten days to travel there and back. She wanted to take advantage of this time difference to finalize important matters.

"Yanzi, you're back from the countryside so soon? I thought it was your mother."

"Yes, my grandparents were worried about me, so they came to take care of me for a while." Lian Yanyan answered while calling into the house, "Grandma, Aunt Zhang from next door is here."

The old lady was tidying up the house with the father and son when she heard her granddaughter calling her. She quickly washed her hands and came out, nervously straightening the corner of her clothes. In her eyes, people who could live in the city were all respectable.

"Auntie, thank you for taking care of our Yanzi."

"Auntie, neighbors should look out for each other. Don't be so polite. You probably don't have time to buy groceries at this hour, right? Come to my house for a meal, I'll cook more."

"No need, Aunt Zhang. This is my grandparents' first time in the city. For their first meal, I'll take them to a state-run restaurant so they can experience it." Lian Yanyan politely declined. In this era, everyone's food supply was tight, so how could a family of four eat at someone else's house?

"That's fine. Once you've settled in, Aunt Zhang will treat you to a meal."

"Aunt Zhang, you don't need to be so polite. It's almost time, go back and cook." Lian Yanyan didn't take the polite words seriously and politely changed the subject.

"Alright, alright, your Uncle Zhang is such a quick-tempered one. He gets all grumpy if we eat a little late." Aunt Zhang complained about her husband, then greeted Grandma Lian, "Auntie, I'm going back to cook now. I'll come back tonight when I'm free to help you tidy up."

"There's not much to tidy up, it's almost done."

Aunt Zhang went back to her neighbor's house and started cooking. At the dinner table, she told her husband about the Lian family next door.

"I never realized Yanzi was such a thoughtful person. Do you think she'd bring her grandparents here and then send them back?"

"Won't."

"How can you be so sure?" Aunt Zhang also felt that the two elderly people wouldn't leave anytime soon, but hearing others' certainty made her want to ask.

"I heard that Wu Qingya went to the south, most likely to go find her ex-husband. As for the work, the factory will definitely arrange a replacement for Yanzi. Who can feel at ease leaving Yanzi alone here? Yanzi herself doesn't dare to live at home, so she went back to her hometown to bring her parents over. That girl is quick-witted."

"Can't that woman just relax for a while? Can't she live without a man?" Aunt Zhang couldn't stand Wu Qingya's behavior and complained bitterly.

"Watch your words. She is Yanzi's biological mother after all. You might upset her if she hears you like that."

"I know, but would I say that in front of her? What are you all listening to? Hurry up and eat, then go do your homework." Aunt Zhang had just finished speaking when she suddenly remembered that her three sons were at the dinner table.

"Mom, why is Sister Yanzi afraid to stay home alone?" the youngest son asked curiously. He was brave and fearless except for his father's slaps. If he was alone at home, he could do whatever he wanted and was incredibly happy.

"What are you little kids doing, asking all this about adult stuff? Go do your homework and don't go out talking about family matters, or I'll give you my feather duster!" Aunt Zhang threatened.

"Don't go out and talk nonsense," Uncle Zhang said simply, which was much more effective than Aunt Zhang's threat.

"Okay," the three children quickly replied, finished their meal in a hurry, and went off to do whatever they needed to do.

At the dinner table, the couple lowered their voices and said a few more words: "It feels like Yanzi has grown up so much all of a time!"

"With such a big change happening, and even your own mother not being reliable, you have to be sensible right away," Uncle Zhang said, shoveling the last bite of rice into his mouth. He didn't envy this kind of maturity.

"Yes, that child has become so thin and emaciated," Aunt Zhang sighed. After all, it was a child she had watched grow up, and it was heartbreaking to see.

After seeing Aunt Zhang off, Lian Yanyan said to the old lady, "Grandma, let Grandpa and Uncle come out. Let's go eat."

"Why don't you cook something for us, Grandma? It would cost so much to eat out."

"Grandma, we don't eat here every day. Tomorrow, my uncle and I will be going to work, and we'll have two workers in the house. We won't miss this meal. You've just arrived, so go and have a meal to treat yourself." Lian Yanyan advised. In this era, feudal customs have been broken, and it's no longer customary to eat vegetarian food during the mourning period. Families that follow the old rules only abstain from meat and oil for three days.

Even Dazhu's seven-day mourning period has passed. The family members are old and weak, so we need to replenish their strength quickly.

"Listen to the child," Master Lian decided.

After changing into clean clothes, the group followed Lian Yanyan straight to a nearby state-run restaurant. In those days, state-run restaurants only served a few dishes each day. Today's dishes were braised pork, stir-fried chicken, and stir-fried mushrooms. The staple food was steamed buns, with both meat and vegetarian fillings.

Lian Yanyan ordered a braised pork belly and stir-fried chicken, as well as ten steamed buns, five vegetarian and five meat-filled. She paid with food coupons and money at the window and then came back to wait.

"Swallows, are they expensive?" Grandma Lian asked in a low voice.

"Grandma, just eat whatever you want. It's a rare opportunity for you to come, and we don't know when we'll be able to come again. Eat as much as you like."

Although Lian Dazhu's salary was high, Wu Qingya was extravagant. When she left, she took some tickets and all the money with her. Fortunately, the original owner's savings were very substantial. Lian Dazhu was afraid that his daughter would suffer in ways he couldn't see, so he would give her some of his salary first every time he received it.

While waiting for the food, Mo Yan walked in with two other people and immediately spotted Lian Yanyan sitting in the corner, then glanced at the three people at the same table.

"Lian Gong's daughter, are you here for dinner?"

Lin Feng's golden thigh?

"Ah, you've brought your grandparents and uncle for dinner. Hello," Lian Yanyan said politely.

Mo Yan simply greeted them and then sat down at the table furthest away from them.

"Who is it?" Grandma Lian asked curiously.

"It's from the factory's security department, his name is Mo Yan. You'll know once my uncle starts working there; you'll often see him at the gate."
