The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

"He's terrified of me right now. I'm leaving now, in-law, I'm going back!"

"Slow down on the road!"

Fang family.

"Where the hell have you been all day? I've been working myself to the bone in the fields, and you've been out chatting and gossiping at other people's houses, never home. Did you think I was dead?"

I visit my daughter's house every day, so I can't hide it from her, and there's no need for her to hide it anyway, since it's not something shameful.

"I went to Xiao Ning's house."

"Why are you going to her house? What's the point of chatting with a sickly person? You'd be better off going to the fields and working with me. You have no idea how much work there is, I'm fucking exhausted! These past few days, everything has been aching when I try to sleep."

Zhao ignored him, saying that the pain was because she hadn't done enough work before, and that it would get better after working more.

Fang Youcai sniffed, "What's in your basket?"

What a glutton! His nose is even more sensitive than a dog's.

"My daughter gave it to me; it's cold mung bean jelly. I figured you wouldn't like it."

"Who says I don't like to eat? It's my favorite food that my daughter gives me. She brought it to me just in time to be hungry."

“This will be a dish for dinner later. This bowl is for our whole family, Fang Youcai. If you dare to hog it all, I’ll go to the Song family and find Xiao Ning right now.”

"What the hell can you do besides threatening me?"

Zhao ignored him and took the basket to the kitchen.

"Mother, Mother, my second brother and I caught a lot of small shrimp by the river, more than half a bowl."

"There's no meat on it at all, why bother catching it!?"

"At noon, my older sister saw us playing with it and said she wanted to eat it."

"My daughter wants to eat," said Tiezhu. "Take it to your sister's house."

"Ai!"

Dog Egg was even happier, sucking his fingers, a snotty nose hanging down, and grinning foolishly. His older sister said to tell them not to play in the deep water, to help their mother with chores, and that she'd bring them candy tomorrow.

He spent half the day catching shrimp; his older sister must be very happy. Maybe she can bring him candy tomorrow.

When Tiezhu came back, he brought back a small bowl. His older sister washed the small shrimp, fried them until they were fragrant, and divided them in half, telling him to go home and eat them.

Touching the candy in his pocket, he realized he hadn't eaten candy in years. He and Gou Dan were going to hide it well and eat it sparingly.

If Dad finds out, he'll definitely only leave them a candy wrapper.

"Mom, shrimp, my older sister fried them, they're really delicious."

When Zhao saw it, she realized it was really fried. How much oil must have been wasted? This girl, she really doesn't know how to manage money!

Fang Tiezhu hid back in his room, broke a piece of candy into three pieces, ran to the kitchen, and gave one piece to Zhao, who was cooking. Zhao tasted the sweetness and looked at him. Tiezhu immediately made a shushing gesture.

"Given by my older sister."

Before Zhao could react, he immediately ran out. Seeing Gou Dan's snot almost touching his mouth, he withdrew his hand in disgust and couldn't bring himself to feed him.

"Wipe your snot for me."

Dog Egg wiped his sleeve.

Tiezhu: ...

He quickly stuffed a piece of candy into his mouth and immediately withdrew his hand. "Don't shout. If Dad hears you, he'll definitely pry it out of your mouth and eat it himself."

Dog Egg covered his mouth tightly...

Everyone got to eat the sugar, except for Fang Youcai, the head of the family.

dinner.

"You spendthrift woman, do you know how much oil you waste frying such small shrimp?"

He loves to eat, but he's also stingy. There's not much meat in it, so why fry it?

"Father, my eldest sister gave it to me."

"Oh, this is a worthless dish," Fang Youcai said, picking up a mouthful with his chopsticks. "It smells really good. This stuff goes really well with wine. Damn it, do you have any more wine? I'll have a couple of cups."

“My daughter gave this to me and the two kids. If you want some, just have a couple of bites to taste it. The rest is for the two kids.”

"you!"

"If you dare to cause trouble, believe me, you won't even get a slice of liangfen!"

Fang Youcai: ...

"She can give her daughter's things to whomever she wants. Didn't you say you were married and had no contact with her? How dare you eat her food!"

"I am her father!"

"I thought you forgot."

Fang Youcai was so angry he wanted to smash the bowl, but he couldn't bear to. He even added two extra dishes for dinner. He was sure that as soon as he sat up, those two bastards would devour all the food, leaving him not a drop of soup.

Fang Tiezhu, that rascal, was especially watched closely. If he slacked off even slightly in the fields, he would say he was going to complain to his mother, his uncle, or his other uncle.

He was losing more and more status in the family. His children were unfilial, and his wife didn't care for him.

One after another they'll learn from each other, and sooner or later Gou Dan will follow suit. His life will be miserable!

In the end, Fang Youcai didn't kick the table. The aggrieved family shared the cold noodles and fried shrimp that Fang Xiaoning had given them. While clearing the dishes, Fang Youcai said, "Mom, this cold noodle dish is delicious, but there's too little of it. When you go to the Song family another day, tell your daughter to give us some more."

"You have the face but I don't. A pot costs 4 yuan, 32 wen. Or, you pay me and I'll go buy it and have my daughter charge you 30 wen."

Tonight, she gained a deeper understanding of this man, and her sense of awe lessened somewhat. The child's father—a scoundrel—she became even more convinced that he was utterly worthless!

"Lotus, tomorrow you'll be a member of the Wang family. After you marry into the family, you must remember to help your own family, okay? Don't forget about us just because you have a good life now!"

"Mom, what are you saying? When I'm better off in the future, I will definitely be filial to you and Dad."

"You also have five younger brothers, you have to help them out and give them a boost."

"I know."

Bah! Her whole family is ready to leech off her, not giving her a single penny of dowry. What are they thinking? Once Wang Defa becomes an official, she'll go to the city to be an official's wife and never return to Zaoshu Village in her life.
