The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

Fang Xiaoning: No, I'm just disgusted by you. You're overthinking it, Dad!

Madam Su and Madam Zhao looked at Fang Xiaoning with surprise and delight. "Xiaoning, let your mother help you into the house to lie down. We'll call you when it's time to eat."

"Yes, yes, when Fengzi comes back, I'll ask him to get a doctor to take a look at you."

"I really need to take a good look at this. I've been so busy lately, what if I upset the baby?"

"Mom, I'm not pregnant. I was just disgusted by what Dad said," Fang Xiaoning hurriedly explained. Calling a doctor would let the whole village know, and how embarrassing would it be if she wasn't pregnant?

"Does your father disgust you?"

Fang Youcai's face turned green. He wouldn't take the blame for this. Today, he was the benevolent father!

"No, he was talking about poop and pee with the old man just now. Just thinking about that image makes me feel nauseous."

Fang Youcai: ...

"Mom, I'm fine. Let's go cook."

Seeing that she seemed to be really alright, Zhao didn't say anything more. "Alright, if you're really uncomfortable, don't hold it in. Dad, let's go home." The two kids were still at home; if it got any later, they would go hungry.

"My daughter said she'll eat at my place for a while and watch the house!" He didn't want to go back to eating cornbread. That stingy woman was so frugal. The 200 coins his daughter gave him were spent sparingly, covering all kitchen expenses except for meat, oil, and salt. He could only eat meat every few days, and not much at all, which couldn't satisfy his cravings.

Oh, and those two brats' snacks are included too, they're the most expensive.

Zhao:......

"Mom, go and call my younger brother and the others over for dinner. They've been eating here lately."

Mrs. Zhao felt a little embarrassed, as she was eating and drinking at her in-laws' house every day.

"Father-in-law, don't be so polite with us. I'll go cook. You go and call the children over. Xiao Anzi likes to play with them too."

Zhao hesitated for a moment, but still went. Tomorrow, she was going to make rice crusts at home, and the three of them would eat there. If they were to stay for a meal, only the head of the household would need to stay.

Zhao opened the door and was startled to see Old Man Song sitting on the ground. Why hadn't that old bastard left yet? Old Man Song was also startled when he suddenly saw the head peeking out. Damn it, were Fang Youcai and his wife going to kill him?

When Zhao saw that the person was still at the door, she was at a loss for what to do and her instinctive reaction was to close the door.

"Xiao Ning, Grandpa Fengzi is still sitting at the door!"

How will she get home?

Fang Xiaoning admired Old Man Fang's persistence. Wouldn't it be better to use that same drive to do things the right way? Why does he have to be envious of others?

"Mother, let me invite him in. It wouldn't be good if someone saw him sitting by the door. Besides, Fengzi should be back soon, and we can't stop him no matter what. Mother, I won't keep you here today. Father, please stay. Can you go back and eat with your brothers?"

"Of course it can be done, husband. You take good care of them and make sure they're not bullied."

Fang Youcai stood ramrod straight. At that moment, he felt incredibly important, the backbone of their group. "Don't worry, I'm here!"

Zhao thought to herself: I'm just not at ease!

"Sir, you're still here! Please come in and have a seat!"

Old Master Song walked in, grumbling, "Still here? Haven't they known I've always been here? Why are they pretending to be such a good person now?"

"When you get old, people don't like you anymore. You can't even get into your grandson's house."

Everyone:…

This time he's truly been wronged. Heaven knows he won't give up until he's completely convinced of his innocence; he'll stay at the door and refuse to leave, no matter what.

"Sir, please sit in the main room. Brother Feng will be back soon."

Su went into the kitchen and poured him a bowl of hot water.

Zhao waved her hand and went home. There was nothing for her to do here. Fang Youcai sat down next to Old Master Song.

"It's dinnertime, aren't you coming home for dinner, in-laws?" Damn it, how can he keep up his act if this guy doesn't leave?

"Oh, you don't know, recently, my son-in-law bought a mule, and there are always some blind fools who can't stand seeing others have a little good. They're always thinking of taking advantage of others and freeloading. So, recently, I've been helping them look after the house."

As you know, they are young, shy, and inexperienced; I'm afraid they'll be cheated. Besides, after buying the mule, our house is empty, and we even have a few taels of silver on credit from the restaurant in town.

Grandpa, you're just as worried as I am, so you came to help them keep an eye on things, right? You want to help them protect this little bit of family business, don't you? I understand your feelings!

Fengzi's life is tough; his family depends entirely on him. Right now, all they have is a place to shelter from the wind and rain; they don't own any land at all. Compared to Old Song's twenty mu of land, what he has is truly insignificant. If we're talking about wealth, who can compare to you, old man? You're the only one in our village who can maintain such a substantial fortune. Fengzi and the others should all learn from you, don't you think?"

Old Master Song was cursing in his heart, "You bastard, why is your mouth so foul?"
