As expected, Jiang Lai saw Ye Anguo again early the next morning. It has to be said that Ye Anguo cared about Jiang Lai and came very frequently. He once again brought a large number of nutritional supplements, all of which Ye Anguo bought for Jiang Lai to supplement her nutrition.

After three days of awkward meetings without any potential partners, Ye Anguo naturally chatted with the Jiang family, explaining that he had come to say goodbye and would be going home soon. Ye Anguo hadn't spent much time with his parents at home for several days.

"The village will start harvesting the late rice today, and I'll be heading back soon. I won't have time to come back tomorrow, so I'm helping with the harvest while I'm at home. I'll take the train there tomorrow afternoon. This is my unit's address; you can write to me or call me." Ye Anguo handed an envelope to Jiang Lai.

"Okay, I understand. I'm fine. I heard that harvesting rice is hard work, so please be careful and don't overwork yourself." Jiang Lai had a good impression of Ye Anguo, so she didn't hesitate to say some words of concern.

"Okay, I understand. I'm heading back soon. I'll write to you when I get back to the unit." After saying this, Ye Anguo really said goodbye to Jiang Bolin and Liu Aihua. After all, Ye Anguo was genuinely going back to harvest the rice; he wasn't just saying it.

As for Jiang Lai, she really has no health problems. On the contrary, she just had a bone marrow cleansing yesterday, and her health is so good that she could kill an ox. However, she suddenly fainted yesterday, which startled the Jiang family and Ye Anguo.

So Jiang Lai, who was supposed to go to work at the Women's Federation today, was forced to stay home and rest again. Liu Aihua personally went to the Women's Federation to ask for leave for Jiang Lai. Jiang Lai couldn't argue with the higher-ups, so she had no choice but to obediently stay home and rest.

Liu Aihua asked for two days off for Jiang Lai. On the first day, Jiang Lai was at home with nothing to do, so she started drawing. There was no way around it; the original owner was a skillful girl. Perhaps because she was not in good health and rarely went out, she had excellent skills. She was very good at cooking and sewing. Although she had not learned embroidery or other specialized techniques, her hand-sewn clothes had very dense stitches. Therefore, Jiang Lai now also had the job of making clothes for her nephew Jiang Shaohui.

Fortunately, Jiang Lai cleverly went to Meng Wenying's room and used the sewing machine. She drew the pattern, cut the fabric, and then just stepped on the sewing machine. Jiang Lai gave herself a thumbs up for her ingenuity.

However, by the second day there was nothing to do. Since there was nothing to do at home anyway, Jiang Lai thought of the most difficult relationship in the world—the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship. So, Jiang Lai made a plan in her mind. Before officially confirming the relationship, she felt it was necessary to understand the situation of Ye Anguo and his parents and family.

You see, Ye Anguo is the third child in his family, with older brothers and sisters, and younger brothers and sisters—five siblings in total. Although they're all married and have separated from the family, if Ye Anguo's parents were the kind of awful parents you find in novels, his siblings would only leech off him, and if Ye Anguo didn't see anything wrong with that, then Jiang Lai would definitely leave at 240 miles per hour.

If a trip can be used to test whether two people are suitable to live together, then the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law should also be understood in advance. Jiang Lai is not naive enough to think that marriage is only a matter between husband and wife. The kind of people Ye Anguo's parents are also related to whether Jiang Lai and Ye Anguo's relationship can be confirmed.

Some might say that you can't tell anything from the first meeting; some people are very nice and enthusiastic to you at the beginning, but things change after marriage.

But who is Jiang Lai? She has a cheat code. Jiang Lai believes that Jin Nian, who could see through a person's soul before, now recognizes Jiang Lai as his master. The two are one. If the Ye family has any malice or opinion towards Jiang Lai, he believes he will definitely be able to sense it.

Even if Jin Nian is not capable in this area, it doesn't matter. As an orphan who was adopted by several soldiers, Jiang Lai is able to thrive in the families of these soldiers after they got married. She may not have other skills, but she is first-rate at reading people's expressions and observing their moods.

Jiang Lai was confident that if Ye Anguo's parents were truly the kind of awful parents, she would definitely be able to tell; she was confident of that.

It's often said that in relationships, it's not a good thing for a girl to be too eager. But Ye Anguo is about to go to the army, so Jiang Lai can easily use this as an excuse to see him off.

Another point is that Jiang Lai's views on these external things are still based on the mindset of a person from 2025. She doesn't care about such trivial matters at all. Most people laugh at poverty but not prostitution. So what if she is talked about for a while? In ten years, as long as you have the ability and can stand in a position that others envy, those discussions will never reach you. You will only hear praise and compliments.

Another point is that Jiang Lai plans to use this secret space for the country's soldiers. Jiang Lai's first reaction upon obtaining this space was that it is a natural training ground, and it would be a waste not to use it.

However, Jiang Lai didn't intend to hand this over herself, because that would require her to deal with many officials, which would be too troublesome.

Although she was exceptionally good at reading people, it didn't mean she enjoyed these social occasions. After considering various factors, Jiang Lai came up with a more suitable method. She didn't need to personally show up; she could simply treat this secret space as a real secret realm, as long as she ensured that the person who "discovered" it was someone from the military.

Moreover, she wasn't afraid of encountering selfish or selfless people. Since she hadn't personally intervened, no one knew that the secret realm had an owner. If things didn't go as she wished, she could simply make the secret realm disappear and then find another army.

Therefore, if Jiang Lai goes to see Ye Anguo, she can also learn about the atmosphere of their troops indirectly, which is a win-win situation.

Jiang Lai has always been a highly proactive person; once she has made a decision, she immediately takes action.

However, it seemed inappropriate to visit empty-handed on the first visit, and since Ye Anguo was about to return to his unit, Jiang Lai decided to prepare something for him to eat on the train.

As a space farm owner, she probably has more resources than anyone else in the world. She has everything from mountain delicacies to things that fly in the sky, walk on the ground, and swim in the sea.

However, Jiang Lai can only prepare some ordinary things that are available here. So, she can bring some tea eggs and make a food that can be eaten and kept in this weather or that is easy to carry.

Jiang Lai's secret realm space could be completely controlled by her mind, but with Jin Nian, who had transformed from ten thousand years of jade marrow, all of this was unnecessary; Jin Nian could do it for her.

Jiang Lai had already tested it and found that Jin Nian could easily do such small things for her, which freed Jiang Lai up. She then handed over all her tasks to him.

Jiang Lai is making tea eggs and cold dishes that can be eaten cold. There are many vegetarian dishes that can be made into cold dishes, but the choice of meat dishes is limited, or rather, there are many kinds, but Jiang Lai doesn't know how to make many.

Finally, after learning that there were little yellow cattle in the secret space, Jiang Lai chose to make two cold meat dishes: cold beef salad and sliced ​​beef and tripe in chili sauce. She also made a spicy braised lotus root and boiled a pot of tea eggs. This would definitely be presentable.

Jiang Lai planned to make tea eggs from wild chicken and duck eggs collected in the space. She had no intention of buying them. The secret space was full of spiritual energy. Although they were wild chicken and duck eggs, they were larger than those from domesticated chickens at this time, and they tasted better and were more nutritious. In any case, all the ingredients came from the space.

Because she had this idea, after everyone else in the Jiang family went to work, Jiang Lai took a bamboo basket, pretended to go for a stroll outside, and then returned home to start tinkering in the kitchen.

In fact, this was the first time Jiang Lai had ever eaten anything in the secret realm. She had only drunk the spring water, so all she knew was that the spring water was sweet and delicious, even better than the super expensive mineral water she had ever drunk. She didn't know anything else about it.

But as she started tinkering in the kitchen, Jiang Lai discovered that the ingredients produced in the secret realm were exactly the same as the top-quality ingredients in the novels she had written before. Even when the plump, white lotus roots were still raw, Jiang Lai had a strong urge to take a bite.

That's why they say anything from this space is bound to be top-notch. Even a simple spicy braised lotus root slice has an incredibly strong aroma. Jiang Lai couldn't resist and devoured every last bit of her favorite lotus root slice. If her stomach weren't so big, she could have eaten everything.

Because the food she made smelled so good, the aroma even attracted neighbors who came knocking on her door. After turning away several neighbors who claimed their children were drooling with envy, Jiang Lai broke out in a cold sweat.

It was too difficult. The second batch of spicy braised lotus root slices that Jiang Lai made was all gone before the neighbors could even try it. Fortunately, Jiang Lai's secret space was rich in resources, with plenty of lotus roots. It was just that it was troublesome to make, and Jiang Lai had to make it four times.

She ate it herself the first time, the neighbor tasted it the second time and it was all gone, a pot was kept at home the third time, and it was only the fourth time that it was given to Ye Anguo.

Although Jiang Lai loves braised lotus root slices, she ate too much of them and got tired of them, so she doesn't want to touch lotus root again anytime soon.

Of course, the reason why this spicy braised lotus root slices taste so amazing is that Jiang Lai added beef, chicken eggs, and duck eggs to it. She originally wanted to make tea eggs, but she ended up eating a whole pot of lotus root slices herself and then letting her neighbor eat another pot. It was almost 10:00 o'clock by then.

To save time, Jiang Lai decided not to make the cold beef salad and the sliced ​​beef and offal in chili sauce. Instead, she added more beef to the third batch of braised lotus root slices, replacing the cold beef salad with braised beef, and changed the tea eggs to braised chicken and duck eggs. The taste was just as delicious. The sliced ​​beef and offal in chili sauce was completely out of the question.

However, after learning from this experience with braised lotus root slices, Jiang Lai decided that in the future, she would prepare any food she wanted in her space before taking it out.

By the time Jiang Lai finished cutting the beef and packing the braised eggs and lotus root slices into a lunchbox, it was already 10:20. Jiang Lai quickly left a note for her family, picked up her things, and went out.

Fortunately, Ye Anguo's country is located in Aoli Village. Although it's called a village, it's actually in the suburbs and not too far from the city. It takes about 40 minutes to get there by bicycle. However, I had never been to Aoli Village before, and I was delayed a little when asking for directions on the way.

The rice harvest is underway in Aoli Village. Ye Anguo is working in the fields with his family. Ye Anguo is strong and has been assigned to operate the threshing machine. The threshing machine is making a loud noise, and the villagers are working enthusiastically.

When Jiang Lai arrived, she saw Ye Anguo's tall figure from afar. She shouted Ye Anguo's name loudly, but he couldn't hear her at all. In the end, it was like a relay race, with people calling out Ye Anguo's name one after another.

By the time Ye Anguo learned that Jiang Lai had come to see him, everyone in the area already knew that a very beautiful city girl had come looking for him.
