I transmigrated into a farming novel and started with a campervan.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw Li standing by the millstone, her eyebrows dancing with excitement. Her face was flushed as she ground the millstone, whether out of embarrassment or exhaustion, I couldn't tell.

Wang Yiyi put down the bucket and called out, "Mother."

Li immediately turned around: "Sanya, let me tell you, this girl is really great. She's generous and efficient, a perfect match for your brother."

Big Head's ears were practically burning red, but he didn't utter a single word in rebuttal, clearly satisfied with the girl.

Wang Yiyi didn't say anything discouraging. Indeed, she couldn't condemn the entire Zhao family just because of one person, Zhao Shi.

Li said enthusiastically, "We've made some money selling tofu. I'm planning to build two more houses before the busy farming season so your older brother can live there when he gets married, and also buy two acres of land..."

Wang Dashan interrupted her, saying, "We still have to make tofu at home every day. If you buy two more acres of land, you won't be able to manage. I think you'd be better off buying a donkey. It can help with grinding and delivering goods."

The proposal was unanimously agreed upon by Da Tou and Er Tou, who had been pulling the millstone every day until they were almost as stiff as donkeys.

Wang Yiyi added from the side, "We discussed some business today. From now on, we'll be making 600 jin of tofu every day."

"My goodness!" Mrs. Li covered her mouth, her face full of surprise. How much money is this? Their family is going to be rich.

Er Tou looked unhappy and wailed, "We can't even handle 400 jin a day, let alone 600 jin a day, we'll be exhausted to death!"

He can rest for half a day if he makes 300 catties of tofu a day, but if he makes 600 catties a day, he will be more tired than a donkey.

Li slapped him on the head: "What are you howling about? We'll buy a donkey next month. You eat so much every day, and you're still dawdling over the millstone."

Wang Yi suggested, "It's not necessary for everyone in the family to do it. Mother, you can hire someone to help grind the tofu, and you can buy firewood from the village. You just need to control the coagulation process."

"Your father and I will work a little harder; there's no need to hire anyone." After considering it for a moment, Madam Li was still somewhat reluctant.

Wang Yiyi didn't force her. The tofu business had just started, and Li Shi didn't actually receive much money yet, so it was normal for her to be reluctant. She would naturally be willing to part with it once she earned more money in the future.

"Everyone, gather around, I have something to announce." A family was grinding tofu when the sound of a gong came from outside.

The village headman was banging his gong all over the village, and Er Tou was the first to run out.

Seeing the children craning their necks to look outside, Li simply let them all go, while she stayed home alone to cook tofu.

Wang Yiyi also ran out to join the fun. She found that after staying in this world for a long time, she felt like she had returned to the time before the zombie outbreak, when she was still a child who was being spoiled in her parents' arms.

When the village headman saw that most of the people had arrived, he raised his voice and announced, "The Southwest Border Army is recruiting soldiers. Our village has five openings. Everyone, please sign up enthusiastically."

The Southwest Border Army was like a god here, with high salaries, and countless people signed up every year when they recruited.

For this reason, the recruitment process was extremely rigorous, and being selected was an honor for one's family.

"I."

"I."

......

Almost all the young men in the village signed up, including Da Tou and Er Tou.

"Those who register tomorrow, come with me to the military camp," the village head solemnly announced, flipping through the registration book.

This time, the village had five slots, which was an unprecedented event. He glanced gratefully at Wang Yiyi in the crowd. It must be her relationship with the county magistrate that allowed their village to have so many slots.

Wang Yi felt uncomfortable under the intense gaze of the village head, so she turned her head away and pretended not to see him.

Li was also happy to hear that it was about recruiting soldiers, but when she heard that Da Tou and Er Tou had both signed up, her face immediately fell: "Da Tou, you're about to get married, why are you joining in the fun? Let Er Tou go."

Wang Dashan shared the same sentiment, but he also had another concern: on the battlefield, swords and spears are indiscriminate, and with only two boys in his family, he wouldn't be able to face his ancestors if something were to happen to them.

Da Tou insisted, "Getting married and joining the army are two different things. Joining the army won't delay my marriage."

Li pointed her finger at his nose and scolded, "You brat, why won't you listen to me? You're married now, you have a wife, and you'll have children in the future. Are you just going to let your wife manage the household alone?"

"Er Tou will get married in the future, so how come he can go?" Da Tou said, sticking out his neck.

"You, you..." Li was so angry that she covered her chest. This unfilial son dared to talk back.

While helping Li Shi catch her breath, Da Ya advised, "Mother, let eldest brother give it a try. The recruitment process for the Southwest Army is very strict, and he may not necessarily be selected."

Da Tou softened his tone: "Mom, please let me go. If I'm not selected, I can give up on this idea."

"Whatever," Li said angrily as she went back to her room.

Wang Yiyi also agreed in her heart that the two of them should go to the military camp. One must be strong to succeed. If her eldest and second brothers achieved something in the army, their family would have someone to rely on. However, she did not dare to say this directly, for fear of upsetting Li Shi.

Wang Dashan went into the house, glanced at Li Shi, and then came out and shooed the children out: "Go do what you're supposed to do, let your mother rest for a while."

Li got up from bed not long after resting, because a guest had arrived at her home: Xie Yu.

When Li saw Xie Yu's enthusiastic face, she completely forgot about the major matter: "General Xie, what brings you here today? I haven't properly thanked you for Da Ya's matter yet. I insist on staying for a meal today."

Xie Yu had come today on business, so she accepted Li's invitation: "I've heard so much about your cooking, Auntie, I'm really in for a treat today."

"Big Head, Second Head, you two come and keep General Xie company." He paused, then added, "Third Sister, you go too."

After saying that, he led Daya and Erya into the kitchen.

In the village, the separation of men and women wasn't so strict, but since Daya and Erya were both of marriageable age, Li felt it was better to avoid them.

Wang Yiyi was also a little puzzled about Xie Yu's purpose in coming today. Was she here to ask her to fulfill her promise?

"General Xie, is there something you need today?" she asked.

Xie Yu smiled innocently: "They're recruiting new soldiers. I heard your village has openings too. I came to ask Brother Wang and Little Brother Wang if they want to give it a try?"

Wang Ertou pushed Wang Yiyi aside and excitedly leaned in, saying, "My brother and I have both signed up. I heard the military recruitment process is quite strict. General Xie, could you perhaps give us some pointers?"

Big Head looked at Xie Yu with bright, expectant eyes.

Xie Yu patted Wang Ertou on the shoulder: "Your body is definitely fine, just go for it."

This conscription was prepared for the Wang brothers. He had discussed it with his uncle, and since Wang Yiyi possessed such a treasure, he could not allow her to be used by others.

If the methods are too harsh, it will probably backfire. Taking her two brothers into the military camp will give them a legitimate reason to keep an eye on her, which can also be considered as holding the hostages in control.

He made this trip just to be on the safe side.
