The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

After getting into the car, Wang Defa didn't even look at her. He was very sensitive about what outsiders said these days. Could this woman really be a jinx? He was a man destined for officialdom; how could he let her implicate him? For the first time, on their wedding day, Wang Defa regretted marrying Cui Hehua.

But it was too late for regrets. He gritted his teeth and went through the entire process. The two newlyweds looked terrible, as if someone owed them money. Old Master Wang's temples throbbed. Weren't they supposed to be inseparable? How could they act like this on their wedding day? Who were they trying to impress?

In front of everyone, not a single one of them behaved properly. His eldest grandson had utterly disappointed him.

Today's wedding has once again made the Wang family the talk of the town in Zaoshu Village.

Ugh!

"Let's eat." Song Shi suppressed her displeasure and brought Cui Hehua a bowl of noodles.

"Thank you, mother."

"Sit down for a while, Fa Zi is still outside entertaining guests." She looked down on this daughter-in-law completely. Seeing her reminded her of the night a few days ago, when her father-in-law…

Their son was completely out of his mind, and they were at a loss.

"Ai!"

In the afternoon, she had been dozing off for a while before Wang Defa staggered into the new room. "Asleep?" Looking at his wife lying on the bed, even though she was drunk, he still remembered what had happened that day and was very unhappy.

"No, why did you drink so much?"

"We'll get married on our wedding night, and one day we'll pass the imperial examination with flying colors. Hahaha... Today we're in our wedding chamber, tomorrow you'll see me pass the imperial examination with flying colors!"

He burst into laughter again, saying, "Marrying that jinx? I, Wang Defa, will succeed because of my abilities. No one can stop me from moving forward. I'm sure I'll pass this exam!"

Seeing Wang Defa suddenly in a good mood again, Cui Hehua cursed him inwardly as a lunatic; she couldn't understand a single word he was saying. Well, not exactly; she did understand the meaning of their wedding night.

In a good mood, he even found the bride more pleasing to the eye, and, swaying slightly, he pounced on her and knocked her onto the bed...

Yes, today is his wedding night, a precious moment of bliss, we can't waste it.

Mrs. Song, who had come to bring her beloved son hangover soup, stood at the door, listening to the commotion inside. Her face flushed red, she was at a loss for what to do, and it took her a long time before she left dejectedly.

Shameless! Shameless! In broad daylight...

What a misfortune for the family, marrying such a shameless wretch. Which new bride wouldn't be out cleaning up the mess right now, washing dishes and sweeping? This one…

At dinner time, the two of them came out of the room together, all lovey-dovey. The sisters-in-law had been busy for a long time, but none of them had a good look on their faces. The old man was even worse, with a stern face, looking at the two people sitting below him.

"Fa Zi, the imperial examination is just around the corner, so you must not be careless. During this time, study hard at home and don't let anything else distract you." As he spoke, he glanced at his newly arrived granddaughter-in-law beside him, pursed his lips, and remained silent.

“I know, Grandpa.”

Cui Hehua was not happy. What did he mean? Wasn't he implying that she was affecting Defa's studies? Ha, if he hadn't been pestering her, she really wouldn't have wanted to bother him. Every time, he left her hanging, and now that she had just entered the house, she couldn't go to her old flame to relieve her frustration.

They're unhappy, and she's unhappy too!

"Lotus, now that you're marrying into our family, let me tell you about the rules. You're a junior, so you should serve us. I won't say much else, just follow Fang Xiaoning's example."

Cui Hehua stared in disbelief at her mother-in-law, Fang Xiaoning. She'd heard Wang Defa say that it was a cow, and that Fang Xiaoning did all the heavy work for the Wang family—washing clothes, chopping firewood, gathering pig feed. She rarely cooked, because they were afraid Fang Xiaoning would steal food, and during busy farming seasons, she even had to work in the fields.

Does she have to do all this? More than she did at her parents' home? Then why is she marrying someone? Is she crazy?

She nudged Wang Defa with her elbow, but the man remained motionless, just eating with his head down, refusing to say a word in her defense.

Okay, this person is unreliable; she can only rely on herself.

She tucked a stray hair behind her ear. "Mother, it's like this. I'm very weak. If I get tired, I can't get out of bed. If it gets worse, I have to call a doctor. When I was at my parents' house, did you notice that I never went to the fields?"

Wang Defa nodded. His wife was indeed delicate, with incredibly smooth skin, and definitely not the same kind of person as Fang Xiaoning. She was like a cow, not a woman.

“Mom…”

"Shut up!" the old man roared. Wang Defa trembled with fear, lowered his head, and dared not utter another word.

The others remained silent. Expecting them to serve them? Hmph, dream on!

“No one in our family is delicate. We get things done through hard work. After a while, we all get used to it.” Song said casually, but she also seriously refuted Cui Hehua’s words.

This means that she has to work.

Cui Hehua listlessly picked at the food in her bowl, thinking of a way to be lazy.

When is Wang Defa finally going to take her to the city to enjoy a better life?!

"Lotus, time to cook!"

It was still dark when Song called for someone at the door.

Cui Hehua:......

The person at the door kept calling out, making it impossible to pretend not to hear. Reluctantly, I got up and cooked. After the meal, "Lotus, after you wash the clothes, chop the firewood."

For the first three days of their marriage, she naturally wouldn't let her go out to do any work, lest people say she was being mean. But expecting her to freeload was even more out of the question.

All day long, Song Shi kept an eye on her, making her cook, wash dishes, do laundry, feed the pigs and chickens, and chop firewood. That old woman Song Shi would make her do whatever she wanted whenever she saw her doing nothing.

Now I finally understand why outsiders say she's mean; they used to treat Fang Xiaoning like a laborer.

What she found most unacceptable was that the Wang family ate separately, with the men at one table and the women at another. Yesterday, she had only sat together for their first meal as a newlywed. All the good food went to the men's table, while they not only had poor food, but Song also had to divide up whatever they ate.

Looking at the dark cornbread, a bowl of coarse rice soup, two green vegetables, and two slices of cucumber in front of her, Cui Hehua felt a chill in her heart.

Fang Xiaoning, that idiot, how did he manage to work in this family for so many years, always willing to suffer and be abused?

This is not the life she wants!

That evening, while she was serving Wang Defa, she subtly influenced him through her pillow talk…
