The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

"Is marrying into another's family feasible?"

"Why not? Aunt, think about it. If one of them marries into your family, Lianhua won't have to leave home. She can live with you right under your nose. Will she suffer any mistreatment? Will her in-laws bully her? When you get old, won't you still have Dayong? It's just a matter of taking care of her. Dayong definitely won't object."

"Of course." Dayong kept telling her that Lianhua wouldn't get married, wouldn't go to other people's homes to be mistreated, and that Lianhua would live with them for the rest of her life.

Song Chunni admitted that she was tempted again. If her daughter didn't leave home, she wouldn't have to worry. This was really better than when she married into the Fang family.

"Let's look for someone and see if we can find a suitable person. Lotus is still young, so there's no rush."

"I'll listen to you. Xiao Ning, your aunt knows how good you've been to us. We've been so grateful to you all these years."

"What are you saying, Aunt? It's fortunate that you're in the workshop, otherwise Fengzi and I would be so much more relaxed." Fang Xiaoning took her hand and patted it gently.

This kid!

"Well, what did Father say?" Madam Qian leaned against the door frame, glancing sideways at Fang Youfu.

"Father said he wouldn't get involved in this."

That means there's no chance.

Boss Fang is really heartless. He's a big shot himself, yet he won't even lend them a hand.

“In our family, we’re the worst off among your brothers right now.”

"Second brother and third brother aren't much better. They just run errands for eldest brother. What future can they have?"

"That's still better than you. Look at them, even though they all live with their father, they've built new houses for their sons. And what about you? What do you have?"

"Did you give me a son? Look at all the children you've had these past few years!" Fang Youfu pointed to the children in the corner.

"They're all money-losing trash. Why should I build a house for them? Am I supposed to pay them to get married in the future?"

Madam Qian was speechless. Didn't she want to have a son? How many times had she prayed to the gods and Buddhas, begging them to grant her a son, but what happened?

“You should keep covering it up, maybe you’ll have a son then? Also, Fang Youfu, you really need to think of something. Look, a few years ago, even if you hadn’t taken the imperial examinations, you were still the best-performing among your brothers, except for the eldest. Now that you’re in the system, the other two have already surpassed us. In a few years, we won’t even have the face to go home for the New Year. We’ll become the poor, pathetic relatives people talk about.”

A hint of resentment flashed in Fang Youfu's eyes. He had thought about his elder brother's current life, but he had neither money nor power. What was he supposed to do?

"What do you suggest we do? I'll listen to you and go find Dad. But as you saw, they argued for so long, and it was all for nothing. He couldn't handle Big Brother."

Qian's eyes were full of calculation. "I've thought about it. Why did Xiao Ning and my older brother become rich? It's because they made money in business. How about we open a shop too?"

"Where will you open the shop, and what will you sell?"

"It's located right in the village. People in our village are so rich now, but it's just a small candy shop with only a few items. If you want something, you have to go to town to buy it."

"I'm busy copying books, I don't have time."

"Yes, I do. We don't farm, and selling our goods isn't difficult. In a few years, our kids can open their own shops, don't you think?"

Fang Laosi was somewhat tempted. "Where will we open it? Where is the shop? And where will we get the money to buy the goods?"

"I've thought about it. If there's a place with a better location than ours, we'll open it here."

"Are you out of your mind? Which eye of yours saw that our house is in a good location? Only a few people pass by our door every day. Our house is the most deserted place in the whole village."

A bookworm is a bookworm, never learns. No wonder he cheated on exams back then. "I'm talking about the old house. Don't you think it's the perfect place to open a shop?"

My second and third brothers both have new houses. We're the poorest of the family now, so giving us the old house as a subsidy seems reasonable, right? My two older brothers won't hold it against us, will they? My parents will agree, won't they?

"We've got the old house. We can open a shop there and make some money, right?"
