Transmigrated to a Famine Year, a Fortunate Wife Relies on Her Farm to Prosper the Whole Family

Waking up from a dream, Su Yun transmigrated from a modern office worker to a young wife in an ancient rural village. Not only did she have an elderly and frail mother-in-law, but also two young an...

Chapter 38 If someone treats me with respect, I will treat them with even greater respect.

"Oh dear, Su Erhe, you should hurry up and go home to take a shower. You stink! Hahahaha!"

"Exactly, what are you two doing here? You're just making a fool of yourselves. Shanhe's wife has finally been normal for a few days, and you two shouldn't ruin her life. Don't you have a son? Let your son go and earn some money!"

"Hahaha, his son is only a few years old. He's more likely to spend money than earn it."

"Let's go, let's go!"

The onlookers started to jeer.

Amidst the commotion, Feng Yueniang, her face flushed with shame and indignation, endured the stench and stepped forward, pulling Su Erhe along as they stumbled and ran away in a disheveled state.

"It's alright, it's alright, everyone can go home now."

"Haha, Shanhe's wife, you're really something! How did you even come up with this idea? Don't you even care about how bad it is?" A woman gave Su Yun'er a thumbs up repeatedly.

“Bad people should be punished, otherwise good people will only suffer.” Su Yun’er shook her head, feeling a little relieved to have gotten rid of one troublesome person.

"Shanhe's wife, you're very busy every day these days. I heard today that you're doing business in the city."

"A family of four needs to eat and drink, so we can't just sit at home waiting for food to fall from the sky. We have to get something to sell for a little money to make ends meet."

When it comes to buying and selling, Su Yun'er didn't want to say much.

It's not that she's afraid of people finding out how she makes money. These candied hawthorns and candied balls aren't high-tech products, and she doesn't expect to make money from them forever.

Instead, she has always believed in making a fortune quietly, rather than letting everyone know "I'm making money!"

After the villagers dispersed, Su Yun'er threw the broken pottery basin and the remaining stinking water into the East Qing (pronounced with a first tone, referring to the toilet in ancient times, from "Journey to the West").

They also placed some deodorizing herbs at the entrance to get rid of the odor.

Soon, the house was tidied up inside and out.

Upon entering the house, Old Mrs. Chen looked anxious. As soon as she saw the mother and her two children, she hurriedly asked what had happened.

Even without Su Yun'er, the little trees and grasses eagerly began describing what had just happened to Old Lady Chen.

After hearing the "report" from the little tree and grass, Old Mrs. Chen felt relieved, but she was also worried that the Su family would come to retaliate.

"What's there to be afraid of? I used to be very obedient to them, but I didn't get any kindness in return. People like them need to be taught a lesson so they'll know how powerful we are and won't dare to bother us anymore."

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Chen felt a little relieved.

Seeing the little trees and grass so excited, Su Yun'er was afraid that her child would imitate them indiscriminately, so she quickly started children's education.

"What I did today was to fight fire with fire. Because Su Erhe and his wife did many bad things to us before, and today they came to bully us and steal our things again, so I used this method to drive them away. But this does not mean that you can use this kind of method on people indiscriminately in the future."

The little trees and grasses nodded obediently.

“Mom, we understand. It’s just like what Grandma said: ‘If someone treats us with respect, we should treat them with even greater respect,’ but we can’t just let them bully us. We should fight back when necessary.”

After hearing what the two children said, Su Yun'er felt relieved.

After a busy afternoon, the whole family was exhausted. They made a simple meal, ate, and then went to bed one by one.

Su Yun'er lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), but couldn't fall asleep.

She misses her parents.

From a young age, my parents doted on me. When I left home to pursue my studies, my father would give me many detailed instructions every time he saw me off at the station. And every time I came home, my mother would prepare her favorite foods in advance. The simplest parental love was contained in these words and food.

She shares the same name as the original owner of this body, but they have completely different family circumstances, which explains why the original owner gradually developed unhealthy family values.

Lost in thought, Su Yun'er slowly fell asleep.

I was probably too tired, because when I woke up, it was already broad daylight.

After a good night's sleep, I felt much more energetic and in a better mood.

Having not tended to her space all night, Su Yun'er went to busy herself in it before getting out of bed.

She planted some rice in her space. Recently, the brown rice at home was almost gone, and she wanted to change the staple food for her family.

I also planted some radishes and cabbages. These two vegetables are easier to store in the cold winter outside the space. If I want to eat other vegetables occasionally, I can just take them from the space warehouse.

After finishing her own tasks, she started browsing through her friends' spaces.

With the level upgrade, her friend list expanded, and she gained a new batch of friends, now totaling 20.

But you can't always get something from every friend.

As usual, after breakfast, Su Yun'er took the candied hawthorns and candied berries and went out.

However, today was different. After arriving at Lingque Street, Su Yun'er saw from afar a little boy riding on his father's shoulders, holding a string of candied hawthorns and eating them happily, while the man carrying the boy was also holding a string of candied hawthorns.

Based on the difference in the number of skewers and hawthorns on the candied hawthorn skewer, Su Yun'er deduced that the skewer was not one of her own products.

"What's going on? Is someone else selling candied hawthorns now?"

As Su Yun'er continued to hawk her wares, she was lost in thought when she unknowingly walked over to the father and son she had just seen.

Su Yun'er glanced at the candied hawthorn in the man's hand and made her judgment.

This string of candied hawthorns is about 70-80% similar to the ones I made, except the sugar coating is too thin. You can clearly see in the sunlight that almost every hawthorn has a spot that isn't coated with sugar.

Moreover, the hawthorns were of poor quality, with a few occasionally having rotten blemishes.

To ensure the quality of each candied hawthorn skewer, Su Yun'er would pick out the bad hawthorns and not sell them.

Su Yun'er speculated that someone bought the candied hawthorns and candied balls she had bought and then figured it out on their own.

Chefs are a group of people who know how to eat and how to cook, so they often study how to make a dish by tasting it.

Moreover, the method for making candied hawthorn is very simple, and figuring out how to do it is easy.

"But no matter what, this candied hawthorn seller is really clever; he knows how to seize business opportunities. Come to think of it, today is only my third day selling candied hawthorn, and my product's market share isn't even that high yet, and he's already copied it! That's fast!"

Su Yun'er, carrying a basket of candied hawthorns and candied balls, walked over to the father and son. After thinking for a moment, she put away the candied hawthorns and candied balls that were on top of her basket, and then walked straight past them.
