The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

Chapter 156 That was really bad timing.

The second day of the new year.

Mrs. Su got up very early today; she and her youngest son were staying home.

Breakfast was still dumplings, convenient and delicious. For the few days I couldn't cook, that was all I had for breakfast.

"Mom, keep the door closed at home and don't open it for anyone who knocks. We might not be back so soon; we still need to go to Grandma's house."

"Okay, go ahead, don't worry about us."

With the two weakest children left at home, how could she not worry?

This time, they set off in a mule cart because it was a bit of a walk to their maternal grandmother's house.

"mother!"

"You're here! Your uncle said your grandma invited us to their house for dinner today. What do you say?"

"Okay, let's go to Grandma's house. Should we go to Grandpa's this afternoon or now?"

Zhao also wanted to go home to have dinner with her mother and bring the food she had prepared for her daughter. With so many people in her family, they would surely be able to finish it. "Go now, otherwise he'll definitely say that no one cares about him and that he's siding with outsiders." She knew exactly what kind of person her father-in-law was.

"Mom, what gifts are you giving Grandpa for the holiday?"

"Meat, snacks, and a jar of wine. What about you?"

"Pretty much." Fang Xiaoning pulled Zhao Shi aside and whispered, "Grandpa's family's holiday gifts are much less than Grandma's family's, is that alright?"

What could be wrong with that? What have they been eating from the old house all these years?

"It's okay, he doesn't know."

Song Feng looked at the mother and daughter whispering to each other, and then at his father-in-law beside him. After getting married, he realized that his father-in-law was actually quite reliable, and not at all like the rumors in the village.

"Dad, shall we go to Grandpa's house now? We're having lunch at Grandma's, so we can't stay at Grandpa's for too long."

"Sure, I can't really talk to your grandpa anyway. Shall we take a mule cart?"

Zhao refused, saying, "Why would we take a mule cart when it's so close? It would make us look bad or cause trouble, saying we're taking a mule cart while only delivering such a small New Year's gift."

Fang Youcai thought of his father; his wife might actually be right. "Let's walk!"

Along the way, Fang Youcai would chat with everyone he met, praising Fang Xiaoning for being filial. He did it on purpose. Don't think he didn't know that the good-for-nothing Cui family member was competing with his daughter!

What can I do? I can't compete with her in earning money, I can't compete with her in working, and I can't even compete with her in getting pregnant! Sigh, she's so useless, I can't even let her be proud for once.

This year's New Year's gifts, hehehe, his daughter will definitely win again! No one can be as generous as his daughter!

The villagers looked at the basket in Song Feng's hand, which was full, with meat sticking out. Goodness, it must weigh at least five pounds. The Song family is really generous!

Fang Youcai did it on purpose. When he left, he deliberately took out all his belongings, stuffing two large radishes at the bottom and placing the meat on top. He wanted the whole village to see how well his daughter had married, and how much the Wang family had lost without her!

His daughter said he was being silly, but he didn't even realize he was making her look good. What an idiot!

The two families appeared neatly in front of the old house. Everyone was in high spirits and looking radiant; adults and children alike were all dressed in new clothes. Fang Youcai and Song Feng each carried a basket. The Fang family's daughters-in-law were almost dying of envy. Their eldest brother was living such a good life, why couldn't he help them out a little?

They were especially jealous of Zhao. Before, even during the New Year, Zhao's clothes were patched upon patched, her face haggard and worn, and her children looked no different from beggars. But what about Zhao now? Her complexion had improved, she had gained weight, and she looked much more energetic. She was also dressed in new cotton clothes, while they had become the destitute ones. The huge difference made them extremely resentful.

"Sister-in-law, Xiao Ning is here! Come on in! You've come at just the right time. Your aunt just arrived too."

Zhao pursed her lips. That was truly unfortunate. She didn't want to see this sister-in-law at all. She was like a rooster, always strutting around with her neck held high. She didn't know what she had to be so proud of. So what if her in-laws had some money? They weren't really that wealthy.

"So what if she's back? She doesn't like me anyway, and my family has no contact with her. What's there to be happy about?"

Fang Lao Er's wife: ...

Fang Xiaoning really wanted to give her dad a thumbs up, but you'll end the conversation.

"Dad, your eldest son has brought your daughter and son-in-law to deliver New Year's gifts!"

Old Man Fang was being intimate with his daughter and son-in-law when Fang Youcai suddenly shouted loudly, startling him so much that he jumped up.

"Old man!" The old woman looked at her husband worriedly. The big guy was so carefree. How could his father, who was already so old, withstand a few more scares from him?

"Big brother, can you be a little more careful and keep your voice down? You scared Dad." Fang Xiaomei frowned and scolded Fang Youcai, who had just entered the house. She was supporting the old man and didn't even glance at the person who came in.
