The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

"mother!"

"Here she comes! Fuko's here too!"

"Grandma!"

"Your two sisters-in-law knew you were coming back, so they went back to their parents' home before dawn and rushed back without even having a meal. They're stewing chicken in the kitchen right now!"

“I’ll do it. It’s rare for them to be able to come back to their parents’ home. Mom, I also brought some dishes. I was planning to cook them for Xiao Ning anyway.”

The old woman scolded, "We have nothing at home, why did you have to come back and bring things! Don't take them out, take them back for you to eat tonight, we've really prepared plenty of food at home."

Zhao didn't respond. She knew perfectly well how frugal her family was; once they left, they would definitely have to live a meager existence for a long time. Although she had earned some money before the New Year, the burden was heavy. She had two younger brothers, each with several sons and daughters. Besides, there was no reason to take those they had taken back with them.

"Ning girl, you've become even more beautiful since you got married. Are you cold? Go to the main room and warm yourself by the fire. Your aunt has boiled some water and will make you some brown sugar water later."

Thank you, but there's no need. Pregnancy already causes frequent urination, and she doesn't want to have to run to the toilet every now and then. Firstly, the toilets here are really unacceptable to her, and secondly, her bottom is freezing cold in this weather.

"Grandma, Grandpa, how are you feeling?"

"Good, good! Your grandma and I are in the best of health!"

Fang Youcai and Song Feng carried baskets into the house, and Zhao Shi also carried one, which contained the vegetables she had prepared.

"You're already here, why did you bring so much stuff!"

"Not much." Fang Xiaoning affectionately took the old man's arm. "There's not much inside, just some food I made myself, for Grandma and Grandpa to try."

"You made this? I'll try it in a bit."

Fang Xiaoning saw that she had a headband wrapped around her head, smiled, and noticed that she was missing two front teeth, giving her a rather awkward look. She resembled Granny Liu. Well, it seems that Ma Hua and the other two are too old to eat now. I hope they don't lose a few more teeth. How will they eat in the future? There are no dentures these days.

"Sister-in-law!"

"It's perfect for cooking. We can stew this meat and chicken together, and Xiao Ning brought these meatballs. We can make a meatball and cabbage soup, which will be especially delicious."

"But we've already started stewing the chicken and meat, sister. Why don't you take it home and eat it tonight? Give me this meatball; I'll make soup with it later."

My sister-in-law and Xiao Ning are coming today, so the dishes were prepared well in advance. They're even better than the dishes we had on New Year's Eve. We were worried there wouldn't be enough to eat, so we killed two chickens this morning!

From the moment Fang Xiaoning entered the courtyard and reached the main room, she began to survey the small house. Although she had memories of it, this was her first time here on her own. Her maternal grandparents' house was much more dilapidated than her maternal grandparents' house, but better than her maternal grandparents' house. Looking at the various rooms in the main room, she fell silent. Her two maternal uncles really had too many children.

No, both adults and children say they sleep together, so how did they manage to have two babies in three years?

Aren't you afraid of doing something bad, like your child overhearing you in the middle of the night or suddenly crying while you're working, which would spoil your mood?

That's awesome!

Once we have the money and build a new house, we'll live separately from the baby. Won't we have to have one baby every year?

Fang Xiaoning couldn't help but shudder at the thought of seeing her aunt holding a newborn baby and drinking milk every year during New Year's visits. It was terrifying!

The meal was a feast, with chicken, fish, and meat—a truly generous offering. Her aunt's cooking was excellent. Fang Xiaoning put down her chopsticks and let out an unladylike burp. Her mother and grandmother had simply piled too much food on her plate.

Looking at her father, his face was a dark reddish-brown, and his expression was dazed. Fortunately, she had told Song Feng beforehand that he couldn't drink. He might dare to drive drunk, but she wouldn't dare to ride with him!

When she left, her grandmother gave her and Song Feng each a red envelope.

"The snow will melt after the New Year, so come visit Grandma whenever you have time!"

"Okay, Grandma, it's cold, you should go inside now, we're leaving!"

"I'll come see you after you give birth!"

"Ai!"

The mule cart continued on its way until they could no longer see anyone before they went inside. Xiao Ning told her privately that if they could manage, she planned to make the rice crust for them, and her family would make something else after the New Year.

Fang Xiaoning did indeed have this intention: to find her mother an easier job. She had heard Tiezhu mention it several times: her mother wielded a spatula every day, and the pain in her shoulders often kept her awake at night.

At my maternal grandparents' house, I heard that besides my maternal grandparents, my two aunts-in-law can also make it now. At first, I didn't plan to teach them, but the quantity was too large, and the old couple simply couldn't wield the spatula anymore. The two daughters-in-law also swore that they would never pass on the recipe.

Two of my uncles also know how to do it, so there's definitely a lot of labor involved.

No wonder they had two children in three years; they must have believed that more people means more strength.
