The Story of a Spoiled Daughter Raising a Husband

After hearing what Tong Qian said, Aunt Wang naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity. No matter what the final outcome is, Tong Qian's image has long been unacceptable to many people in the village, even if some people remember her kindness in the end.

But no matter what, it was I who enabled so many people to receive this information. If it really succeeds in the end, most of them will probably remember my kindness. Thinking this way, my determination became stronger and stronger, and I was also a little impatient when I did this.

After leaving Tong Qian's field, she returned and used her usual ability to spread information to every corner of the village, telling everyone about the news Tong Qian had given her, and informing them that she had invited a master focused on farming.

Furthermore, they planned to have that teacher teach everyone about farming for free, so that after learning, everyone could not only guarantee their daily income but also exchange grain for silver in town. After saying this to each household, they returned home somewhat tired.

Uncle Wang worked in town all day, but when he came home, he didn't see his wife. He was a little puzzled, wondering where she had gone, but he didn't react too much. After all, it was impossible to keep her at home all the time.

But seeing Aunt Wang like this, he became even more puzzled. He wondered what had made her like this. Usually, even if she was asked to do something in the fields, she would complain for ages. It was truly unusual to see her like this today. After she sat down, he finally spoke up:

"What did you do today? You look so tired. I thought you would stay at home, so I came back early after work, but I didn't see you when I got back."

As Aunt Wang listened, she found herself panting and struggling to calm down. At that moment, she suddenly realized that she hadn't been out for a long time, which was why she was so out of breath after only visiting a few places that day. Looking at her husband's condition, she shook her head.

"You probably don't know what happened today. Let me tell you, something special, you could say strange, happened in the village today. It drew everyone in the village to the fields, looking at something that was hard to explain. And today, Tong Qian brought back a lot of people from who-knows-where."

"Speaking of those two people, I have to say that the girl she brought back was particularly gentle and beautiful, and the young man she brought back was also particularly handsome. Many people wanted to propose to them. If our family had someone we needed, I would definitely have had that thought too."

As he spoke, he picked up the tea, poured himself a cup, and gulped it down before saying, "You don't know, that little girl from the Tong family, I don't know what's wrong with her lately, she's been doing things that no one can understand."

"Look, she brought a bunch of people back today. I told you a few days ago that she had arranged for some children to stay at home, and today she brought back some adults. But as I just said, no one can admit that the two people she brought back definitely don't look like they're from that small town."

"Oh dear, but that's not the point. The point is that she brought back a teacher, and the teacher teaches agricultural subjects. Tong Qian just said that she wants everyone to have the teacher teach everyone in the village, but she's afraid that her actions will make the villagers think that she's doing something inappropriate and deliberately dragging them down."

"Then, because I asked her that question today, she relented. She was also grateful for the help we had given her in her courtyard before, and said that we could go with her to listen to what that teacher had to say. She also said that the teacher had come here to spread knowledge and could teach other things to anyone who wanted to learn those things from him."

"And even if she didn't say it, I could tell myself that if those things were done successfully, it would likely increase the harvest and bring more money to our family. Under that premise, our family's conditions would be better."

"Moreover, that teacher did seem to be very knowledgeable. While so many people were gathered around watching, he was able to concentrate on examining the things in the field. I was just holding the soil and examining it piece by piece. Although I couldn't understand what he was looking at, I always felt that he was very profound, which made people more convinced of his abilities."

"When I heard about this, I thought, no matter what, it's something that benefits so many people in the village. I can't just go by myself, can I? So I spread the word throughout the village. Even if it doesn't work out in the end, at most they'll blame Tong Qian. If it does work, wouldn't we also benefit from it?"

After hearing what Aunt Wang said, Brother Wang couldn't help but facepalm. He really couldn't understand his family's situation. He had been thinking of helping Tong Qian before, and even argued with Tong Qian's parents in their yard. Now, he was thinking about this kind of thing.

As for the things she considered later, I should have been able to think of them too. But what I was thinking was why Tong Qian didn't tell anyone else, but only came to tell my wife these things. Even though she said a few words to help that day, her intention was not like that. I could see that, so how could Tong Qian not understand?

She had been busy for so long, feeling smug, but she thought to herself that it was definitely not what she had said. She was probably just being used by Tong Qian as a medium to pass on messages. If something really went wrong in the end, she would still not get any benefit. Thinking this, she shook her head. But what was the use of saying anything now that it had already been done?
