The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

The addition of a new member to the family should have been a joyous occasion, but now, no one is happy about it.

Fourth brother, I wonder how you're suffering at the county government office!

In the end, the old man still gave Shen some medicine to prevent miscarriage. Fang Youcai, seeing that there was nothing for him to do, had already slipped away with Zhao.

By the time they tried to find him to continue, he had already vanished.

Meanwhile, the man Fang Xiaoning sent returned to report that Fang Laosi had cheated. Being his master's own uncle, he didn't dare say anything too harsh, simply relaying what he'd heard.

"Go down."

"Yes."

Fang Laosi doesn't seem like a smart person, so how did he pass the exam on his first try? It turns out he got there by any means necessary.

Cheating!

He was still just a novice.

He certainly won't be beheaded; at most, he'll be frightened, suffer a bit, and spend a few days in jail. It's only right that he learns his lesson.

She won't interfere in this matter. Anyway, the person will be back in a few days. If they come out too soon, they won't learn their lesson and will become even bolder in the future. It would be terrible if they did something that would implicate their entire family.

She also needed to inform her father about this, so as not to make him anxious or upset, after all, he was her own brother.

Fang Laosi's matter caused too much of a stir, so Song Feng went to find her as soon as he got home.

"Xiao Ning, don't worry about your uncle's matter. I've inquired about it. At most, he'll be banned from taking the imperial examinations for life. He won't be executed or implicated in anything."

“I know, but there’s no rush. Tonight, when no one’s around, go and tell my dad. During the day, the whole village is watching us.”

"Okay, where's your grandpa?"

“We’ll continue as usual, don’t worry about it. We’re just common folk, what business do we have with the government?”

Song Feng nodded; he understood.

Fang Xiaoning is really overthinking it. The only ones who can't eat or sleep are the people at the old house. Fang Youcai is very ambitious!

Wang family.

"I knew Fang Laosi wasn't a good guy. His grades have always been worse than our Fa Zi's. I thought he got in because our Fa Zi didn't go, and he got lucky. Who knew..."

"They're really bold, they'll do anything." The old man scoffed disdainfully.

Wang Defa sat in the main room, silent. A chill ran down his spine. He didn't know if his broken leg was a good thing or a bad thing. If it hadn't been broken, he would still be in prison.

He dared not tell anyone about it.

"If only our Fa Zi hadn't been injured," Song said regretfully.

Despite being so well-educated, the law stipulates that people with disabilities are not eligible.

Wang Defa: ...

Old Master Wang was overjoyed. Because of Fang Laosi, he had suffered so much scorn, with people constantly saying that his son, Fa Zi, was unlucky. He had chosen a bad wife, couldn't continue his studies, and was crippled. For a long time, he didn't dare to go out.

Now, hahaha... it's finally the Fang family's turn to be unlucky.

Cui Hehua pursed her lips, wondering what they were so happy about. Even if Fang Laosi was unlucky, he couldn't be as unlucky as her family. At least he was healthy and had a capable niece and older brother.

"Fa Zi, do you know about him buying exam questions?" The old man suddenly remembered that in the winter, Wang Defa had also asked him for a large sum of money.

Wang Defa instinctively denied it, "How would I know, Grandpa? You know perfectly well that I didn't go anywhere except to the Master's place a few times."

That's true, his eldest grandson wouldn't do something so foolish.

Fang Laosi saw several familiar faces in the county jail; it turned out they had also bought the exam questions.

The group exchanged glances. In the current situation, no one dared to say anything. They were all terrified to death to have been brought here.

The future is uncertain, and they are all filled with regret, wishing they hadn't taken the shortcut.

Yes, it was all Wang Defa's doing. He was the one who instigated them to buy the test questions.

So much time has passed since this incident, and the results have been released. The county magistrate originally didn't want to get involved, but somehow the higher-ups found out and put pressure on him to conduct a thorough investigation.

There's no other way but to conduct a thorough investigation. Sigh, who knows who the higher-ups will bring down this time? Luckily, he only received the letter and didn't participate at all.

The investigation proceeds layer by layer; where there are those who buy test questions, there are naturally those who sell them.

As a result, the workload of the government officials increased again, as they had to arrest another batch of sellers.

What's going on with this jujube tree village? Why is there another seller here?

Indeed, yesterday, without even a county magistrate's interrogation, a few terrified students confessed to Wang Defa.

If it weren't for his encouragement, they would never have dared to buy exam questions. Why are they the only ones who suffer while he gets away scot-free?

Besides, if they don't confess, they'll be tortured; they can't withstand that.
