The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? It's dark."

"What do you mean you saw wrong? The whole village saw it. Now everyone has gone to his house to see the excitement. If you don't believe me, go see for yourself."

Wang Defa was clearly also somewhat provoked; the veins on his forehead were throbbing. Who could tolerate their ex being better off than them? Wasn't this a slap in the face? It proved that Fang Xiaoning was right to break off the engagement and marry someone else.

Cui Hehua was devastated. The man she had her eye on had become rich? Then why did she marry that good-for-nothing Wang Defa?

Old Wang lost his appetite. "I'm not mistaken, it really is a new mule cart?"

"You can see it clearly. They say it's a mule that's just come of age, very strong. The carriage in the back is bigger and sturdier than the ones we see in town. They said they bought it just for the convenience of delivering goods to town."

"Dad, you think they should earn more money? They bought a new mule cart just for delivering goods. Everyone says Fang Xiaoning came up with all their money-making schemes, and she even secretly gave a lot to her family. Just imagine, if she were in our family!" Song Shi slapped her thigh. "Dad, we've lost out big time!"

To marry Cui Hehua, Fang Xiaoning lost so much money to the Fang family, and now she has made the Song family rich. Her husband, Defa, is short of money. If his wife can earn money, he can focus on his studies and not worry about these trivial matters.

Looking at the stunned Cui Hehua, it was this slut who seduced her son, causing them to miss out on the golden opportunity. Shameless little bitch, whore!

Old Wang was filled with regret. Ever since Cui Hehua entered the family, he had regretted it deep down. Comparisons are odious; ever since this one came in, she's useless at work, and when it comes to arguing, she's like a hen, squawking and cawing—very energetic, and also greedy. When she has nothing to do, she hides in the room, flirting with his eldest grandson, affecting his studies.

Fang Xiaoning is so virtuous! She's efficient, respectful to her elders, hardworking, and never complains, even when people scold her. Most importantly, she knows how to make money! With her, how could his family not prosper? How could his eldest grandson not succeed in his studies? If one year isn't enough, then two; if two years aren't enough, then three—there won't be the slightest worry.

But it's too late for regrets now.

"De Fa's wife, go back to your own room." She's an eyesore.

When the old man gave the order, Cui Hehua dared not disobey. Now she was starting to panic. Her rival was so capable, which made her feel utterly useless. It was obvious that her family was starting to look down on her. What should she do?

She glanced guiltily at Wang Defa, whose face was dark and gloomy, staring at the corner of the table—a rather intimidating sight. She remained silent. Lowering her head to minimize her presence, she quietly withdrew from the main room.

Everyone in the room was puzzled. How could Fang Xiaoning, a quiet and somewhat foolish girl, suddenly become so capable? Was she just pretending to be stupid in front of them all along?

She just wanted to see how they treated her.

That must be it, they've been tricked! That brat, where did she get all these tricks from?

"grandfather?"

Wang Defa has been obsessed with money lately. With money, he can get private tutoring; with money, he can buy exam questions; with money, he can stay in a nice inn and have a good room in the county town; with a mule cart, he can lie down and go to the county town...

Originally, he could have had everything if he had Fang Xiaoning. But now, that bastard Song Feng got all the benefits, and what about him? He's worrying day and night about the few taels of silver he had to spend on the exam questions.

Damn it, he shouldn't have married Cui Hehua; she'd already been used up by him anyway.

Wang Defa regretted marrying the wrong person. Frustrated, he ran his hands through his hair and squatted in the house.

The other two wives also regretted it. Marrying Fang Xiaoning meant they had someone to do the work and earn the money; they could have just lived a life of leisure, like before. A happy life slipped through their fingers; they almost had it.

"Defa, the Fang family girl is married!" The old man sighed deeply, his voice filled with helplessness and exhaustion. Anything he said now was just wishful thinking.

Wang Defa knelt down with a thud: "Grandpa, I was wrong. I was blinded by greed and acted foolishly, unable to distinguish right from wrong. Don't worry, I will definitely pass this exam. When I return, I will make you and the whole family proud and bring honor to our ancestors."

I'll make Fang Xiaoning regret breaking off the engagement with me; it was the biggest mistake of her life. Song Feng will always be a peasant; how can he compare to me? Even if they're the best, what use are they without power or influence?

"Good!" The old man stood up excitedly, patting his eldest grandson on the shoulder. "It's good that you can pull yourself together! Do well on the exam, and Grandpa is waiting for you to make me proud!"

"Don't worry, Grandpa!"
