The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

His eyes were vacant as he stared at the corner of the wall. His mind was a jumbled mess, impossible to unravel. That good-for-nothing he had always looked down on had actually passed the imperial examination! And he had only studied for five years. It felt like a resounding slap across his face, burning with pain.

"Fa Zi, dinner's ready."

He stared at the brown rice soup, cornbread, and stewed cabbage his mother had brought, his eyes filled with malice. His second wife had been sent back to her parents' home by him again. Ever since he was diagnosed with oligospermia last year, she would run back to her parents' home every time she was beaten, and each time she went back, she wouldn't return for at least two or three months.

He didn't understand why God was being so cruel to him. Wasn't he miserable enough already?

He cannot get a woman pregnant; he will never have children; he will be childless.

Even if he works hard to copy books and earn money, what's the point?

Anyway, he has no hope for the rest of his life.

And then there's that vile woman, Cui Hehua. He couldn't let her get pregnant, so where did the child he aborted come from? She cheated on him, but he not only let her go but also gave her money and a place to live. Later, she even married her lover and lived a good life with the money he gave her.

The Cui family completely outmaneuvered him! The old widower treated him like a monkey.

In the stillness of the night, these thoughts kept him awake. Why was he the only one living in hell? All these people deserved to die!

As Song left the house and closed the door, a wave of sorrow washed over her. She covered her mouth and wept silently.

Her son is so pitiful! How could he be so pitiful?

After much difficulty, he spent two taels of silver to marry a young woman who met his expectations. He was overjoyed and eagerly awaited the arrival of his grandson. However, just like the previous one, his daughter-in-law's belly showed no signs of pregnancy.

However, the first one eventually showed signs of pregnancy. They took her to the city to see a doctor, who said she was in good health and had no problems at all, and advised her not to worry.

Okay, no rush, no rush. Another year has passed, and there's still no sign of anything. Two years have passed, and even the old hen doesn't know how many eggs she can hatch. How can she not be anxious?

So, he took his daughter-in-law to see the doctor again, and the answer was still that she was fine, but he told her to bring her son to see a doctor.

She took him there without thinking much about it; she had faith in her son, after all, Cui had been pregnant before. Who would have thought that the doctor would say her son had asthenospermia, a congenital weakness that prevented him from conceiving.

At that moment, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was struck by lightning; the shock was so intense that she fainted. All her hopes were gone; the Wang family's eldest branch was now extinct!

The Cui family had already divorced, and they wanted to cause trouble, but they dared not because of their son's feelings.

The daughter-in-law was also at the clinic. When she heard this, she was stunned, then burst into tears. After being coaxed home, she cried for several days and became a completely different person. She used to be well-behaved, sensible, and capable, but ever since then, she has been finding ways to argue with her son.

In their room, they either argue or fight. Whenever they fight, she runs back to her parents' house. At first, she would stay for two or three days, but now she doesn't want to go home for months.

She suspected that either she was having an affair, or she was forcing her family to divorce her. After all, as long as they didn't let go, she couldn't possibly make a comeback.

Having learned from Cui Hehua's example, if you want them to give up, they'll have to wait until the next life! You'll drag it out until she's dead!

Back then, marrying her was practically the same as selling her to their family.

A sinister look appeared on Song's face. Once you enter their house, you're a ghost in their house. You're a worthless person they bought, and you have to serve her son for the rest of your life.

In the past two years, she has not treated her badly at all; she has been so good to her that she has forgotten the suffering she endured at her parents' home.

Humans are sometimes just like that, they act like idiots!

And that Cui woman, she really thinks this matter is over and done with, treating her whole family like fools. Now she's having children with an old widower, she doesn't deserve it!

She was certain that the old widower was the adulterer who had cuckolded her son; otherwise, he would never have come to propose marriage so soon after her divorce, and they would have gotten married immediately.

Even if she risked her life, she wouldn't let the adulterous couple get away with it.

The evening banquet started in the afternoon; in fact, it didn't stop all day.

Fang Youcai considered that some families lived far away, and most of them were eating such a large amount of meat and fish for the first time, and they were stuffing themselves with food for two meals in a row. He was worried that they would not be able to handle it, so he prepared a lot of large bamboo tubes the day before.

"If you want to take your share home for your elders to try, that's fine too. There are bamboo tubes, vegetables and meat, steamed buns and rice over there. After it's divided, you can take your share with you."

When everyone heard this, they were surprised. They had already stuffed a few steamed buns into their pockets at noon and were thinking of wrapping a few pieces of meat in oil paper. Unexpectedly, the host was willing to let them take everything with them.

This is wonderful! Such good food is too expensive to eat in one meal; we should enjoy it at home. There's also white rice and steamed buns—my parents have never tasted anything like it in their entire lives.

Upon hearing this, everyone at each table stopped eating, got up to distribute the food, and left after taking what they needed. They couldn't be ungrateful for such hospitality. They couldn't keep taking more and more, taking advantage of the situation.

It was completely dark when everyone had left. The family's smiles had all dried up, and those who had helped with the work were yawning. Even the cook couldn't lift his hand.

Good heavens! Thank goodness it's only for one day. If it were three days, the cooks would have thrown down their spatulas and run away.

The family didn't want to say anything, so they all went their separate ways and got some sleep first.

Paying money to suffer is truly the case.

After a lively day, Zaoshu Village finally quieted down.

Everyone was full and tired, and that night, every household slept exceptionally soundly.

Including the old widower's family, he was drunk, embracing his wife, and after a passionate encounter, they were both satisfied and fell fast asleep in each other's arms.

One snores, the other grinds their teeth; when one rests, the other takes over—a perfect match...

In their backyard, under the moonlight, two figures carried more than a dozen bundles of straw and placed them behind the house. They lit a tinderbox, and the flames gradually rose. A sinister, triumphant smile appeared on one of their faces as they turned and disappeared into the night.

Adulterers, adulterous couple, and that little bastard—may they all die!!

"Move away a bit, it's a bit hot." Cui Hehua was too tired, and it was so hot today, she mumbled with her eyes closed.

The old widower also turned over, his brows furrowed, and he didn't sleep as soundly as before.

On the kang (heated brick bed), the two children, awakened by the heat, cried out, "Waaah, waaah..."

"Mother, get up and breastfeed, the baby's hungry." The old widower kicked the woman next to him.

Cui He struggled to open her eyes. Since having a baby, the most painful thing was never having a good night's sleep. It was either feeding or peeing.

"what!"

"Waaaaah, waaaah..."

"Waaaaah, waaaah...Mom! Dad!"

The cries of the two babies rose and fell, each louder than the last...
