Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Yuanyuan hurriedly changed the clothes for the three children, all of them were homemade seven-point pants and sleeveless shirts she had seen before.

When Tan Shaoting drove over. He got out of the car and carried the three children into the car.

They didn't go directly to the city. Instead, they strolled around the county.

They bought some supplies at the supply and marketing cooperative. The five of them had lunch outside.

The taste was average, but the children liked the crowd.

When they came back in the afternoon, there was an extra sheep in their yard.

The three children were particularly happy. Since they started walking, the mother sheep spent more time with them.

Their house also had a lot more meat, oil, rice, and flour.

The whole afternoon, Tan Shaoting was in the yard turning over the soil. Cabbage and radishes could still be planted, and they couldn't lack green onions either.

The three children were circling around the mother sheep in the yard, or else they would go and make trouble with Tan Shaoting.

Su Yuanyuan was tidying up inside the house, and she also stewed fish; it had been a long time since the children had fish.

There were already people living next door to their house. The fragrant smell made the two neighboring families quite envious.

The neighbor on the right was on the same level as Tan Shaoting, but he was already in his forties, and their eldest daughter was already twenty, with two younger twin sons who were already fifteen.

"Mom, who moved in next door? Wow, their food is really not bad."

"I heard from your dad that they are new arrivals, just like your dad. But only in their early twenties."

"So outstanding?"

"Indeed."

"Mom, if they invite us to dinner, I'm going."

"What would you go for? You're already so grown up, yet you don't do anything serious all day."

The neighbor on the left was half a level higher than Tan Shaoting, and he was also in his forties. Their eldest daughter was already twenty-two this year and worked in the medical office. The family also had another daughter and two sons.

The women in their house smelled the aroma from next door today and thought this meant they might want to invite them to dinner.

About this neighbor, the husband mentioned that he's a very capable young man, just over twenty, now only half a level lower than their man.

Actually, Su Yuanyuan really hadn't thought about inviting the neighbors. Tan Shaoting didn't know anything about this either.

In her previous life, Su Yuanyuan was a homebody; it can't be said she knew nothing about human relations, but she really didn't interact with neighbors.

In her consciousness, there was simply no idea of inviting new neighbors over for a meal.

Cao Jinling, who was on the right, felt very interested in that man in his twenties who was at the same level as her dad after hearing her mom's words. So she went out of the house and stood in the yard, listening to the children's laughter from next door.

Is this a marriage? Or are they siblings?

Cao Jinling was very curious; the courtyard wall wasn't too high, so she ran into the house, brought out a stool, and stood on it.

The first thing she saw was Tan Shaoting, wearing a sleeveless vest with bulging muscles, using a large hoe to dig the ground.

"Daddy!" Qi Wen called out to Tan Shaoting with a smile.

"What's up?"

"Daddy, I want to sit on the sheep's back."

"Qi Wen, your mom doesn't agree with that. Be good, and tonight Daddy will carry you."

Cao Jinling heard the man's voice and became even more excited. This must be an excellent man.

Cao Jinling considered herself very beautiful, and in just over a month she could go work at the art troupe, which was a job, definitely stronger than being a housewife.

She never bothered to pay much attention to men, but after hearing Tan Shaoting's voice, she felt that she was falling for him.

"Alright, Daddy."

Tan Shaoting noticed the woman leaning on top of the wall, saw her expression, and felt very disgusted. He had seen that kind of look many times, so he was extremely annoyed and didn't even spare her a glance.

Cao Jinling just lay there on the wall, hoping Tan Shaoting would turn his face so she could take a good look.

But after he finished planting the vegetables in the yard, he still didn't turn his face, yet just looking at his profile made her feel truly moved this time.

The mother sheep played in the yard with the three children, bringing rounds of laughter from the three children.

Su Yuanyuan took out the braised fish; the rice was already simmering, so she brought out a bundle of small green onions.

"Where should I plant the green onions?"

"Yuanyuan, you don't have to. It'll be done soon."

Su Yuanyuan also noticed the woman on the wall, saw her obsessed look, and raised an eyebrow. Does someone have their eyes on him? But doesn't this woman have a problem? The kids are in the yard all the time, and they're always calling Tan Shaoting; doesn't she know this man already has a wife and kids?

"Yuanyuan, I want to eat braised beef."

"Okay, I'll prepare it. After you finish planting, you can bathe the kids, and then we can eat."

"Sure."

Cao Jinling on the wall saw the young girl, and the fire in her heart was extinguished.

Right, he already has a wife and kids.

But she really couldn't accept it, how could such a quality man be someone else's?

So she climbed down dejectedly and suddenly thought that they probably hadn't planned to invite them to dinner either?

Inwardly, she looked down on Su Yuanyuan a bit. Doesn't know the basics of etiquette.

She went back inside and saw her mom making shoe soles.

"Mom, I just listened to the neighbors, and it seems like they don't plan to invite us to dinner."

Meng Liping was stunned for a moment and put down the shoe sole in her hand.

"I'll go make dinner, tonight we'll have sorghum rice soup."

"Mom, I heard they're even having braised beef."

"That's theirs, go light the fire for me."

"I won't, it's too hot." Cao Jinling said and ran back inside. She lay on the kang bed thinking about the face of that quality man.

An hour later, Tan Shaoting had already cleaned and changed the clothes of the three children, and the five of them were having dinner.

The couple didn't eat, just picked out the bones for the three children.

The three children loved eating fish. Qi Wen, just like Tan Shaoting, particularly loved eating meat. She had already eaten two pieces of braised meat.

"Qi Wen. You've had enough meat today."

The little girl unwillingly put down her chopsticks that were reaching for the meat.

The family had eaten quite heartily today, but the two neighbors, especially the one on the left, were still waiting to be invited for dinner, so they didn't cook at all.

When the men and children came back, they found there was still no dinner ready.

"Mom, did you go out today? Why isn't dinner ready?"

"No, just forgot. I'll cook now."

Couldn't tell the children that she smelled the meat aroma from next door and was hoping to be invited, so she didn't cook.

It was rare, so they made noodle soup at home in a hurry, which really pained Zheng Yuhua, and the dry noodles were buns the son bought from the cafeteria.

So they really looked down on this new neighbor.

The children were quite satisfied today because they couldn't usually have noodles easily.
