Rebirth in the 1970s: Refusing to Be a Side Character

Chapter 13: A Sweet Candy for a Sweet Mout

◎ What is love at first sight? This is it! ◎

In the morning, Dong Jiaojiao fed Big Mao and Second Mao breakfast before going next door to drop off the kids.

The two kids were thrilled and excitedly said to Wang Cuihua, "Mom, Auntie gave us malted milk last night, and this morning we had noodles and eggs. It was so delicious. Tonight, I want to sleep with Auntie again. She smells nice, and the bed is nice and fragrant too."

"I want to too! I want to too!" Second Mao hurriedly chimed in, afraid that if he spoke too late, he might miss out.

Wang Cuihua, annoyed, gave each of them a playful rap on the head and awkwardly said to Dong Jiaojiao, "Dong, you really went all out, giving them such good food."

"It's fine. I needed to eat anyway, so I just made a bit extra," Dong Jiaojiao said with a smile, her eyes and brows radiating charm. Even though she had only two eyes and one nose, her fair skin made her look completely different and stunning.

If Wang Cuihua hadn't seen her every day, she might not have believed her eyes. She had been in the city for a while but hadn't improved in appearance.

However, Wang Cuihua was aware that Dong Jiaojiao already had good features and figure, and the city's environment had transformed her even more.

Seeing Dong Jiaojiao's well-developed figure, Wang Cuihua thought that after giving birth, she must have plenty of milk, unlike when she had Big Mao and nearly starved him.

But even if she had plenty of milk, what good was it without a capable man to father children?

Wang Cuihua felt increasingly sympathetic towards Dong Jiaojiao. "Dong, don't be too upset. Deputy He's illness can definitely be treated. We're about to build a large hospital here, and many doctors and experts will be coming from the capital. You should persuade Deputy He to go see them."

This situation had also occurred in her previous life, and Dong Jiaojiao knew there was also a romantic rival of He Chengjun's involved, who had caused trouble for Lu Yao in her previous life.

But these were not Dong Jiaojiao's concerns.

Before the hospital was built, she would be divorced from He Chengjun because she wouldn't waste too much time on a scumbag.

Today, Dong Jiaojiao planned to hitch a ride on the supply truck to the city to prepare for life after the divorce.

She was currently living in a military residence, but after the divorce, she would no longer be a family member and would have to leave the residence.

However, Dong Jiaojiao didn't plan to return to her rural hometown. Since she was alone, it didn't matter where she was.

Based on her previous life's experience, she knew that reform and opening-up were coming soon.

There would be many business opportunities then, and she wanted to stay in the city. Lingnan City was a good choice.

But before that, she had to find a place for herself within the next year and a half.

Ideally, she would find a job in the city, even if it was temporary.

Although she could live well on the resources from her space, as an outsider living alone in the city without an obvious source of income could easily arouse suspicion.

Therefore, she needed to be careful.

Dong Jiaojiao arrived at the small supply store, where the procurement truck was already occupied by many people, all hitching a ride to the city.
