The story is about a fake young lady, transmigration, a pampered darling, face-slapping, farming, building from scratch, and a satisfying read.
Su Wanwan woke up one day to find herself the f...
Jiang Wanwan nodded and said to Jiang Liu, "Fifth Brother, we'll find you another private school later."
That's what they say, but the second half of this year is so stressful that we don't even know if we'll be able to go to school.
Jiang Liu waved his hand, "It's alright, I can study at home too. There have been so many big things happening at home recently, I'll stay home and help out for now."
“Alright, Fifth Brother can decide this himself,” Jiang Wanwan said.
After giving her family a heads-up, Jiang Wanwan began to plan the next steps.
"Our family received two large orders today. Ruixiangju and Wanhuofang have asked us to deliver goods to the county town every fifteen days. Ruixiangju ordered 5,000 rolls of osmanthus mosquito coils and 2,000 rolls of sandalwood mosquito coils, which is about 41 taels of silver. We will earn 82 taels in a month."
The general store ordered 5,000 rolls of regular mosquito coils and 3,000 rolls of menthol-type mosquito coils, costing approximately 38 taels of silver, which would earn them 76 taels a month.
Upon hearing this, the heavy mood of the Jiang family members instantly eased, and smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
“Our family needs someone to make mosquito coils, so we won’t be involved in catching locusts. Also, I’ll transport the locusts to the county town myself tomorrow, so you two can stay home and make mosquito coils.”
There's another matter we need to discuss. We've saved enough money to build a new house, but not enough for a three-courtyard house; we can only build a two-courtyard house.
I think we should start construction as soon as possible and vacate this old house. When we get more orders for mosquito coils in the future, we can hire the villagers to help make them. What do you all think?
"Sir, you are the head of the family, what do you think?"
The main reason is that building a three-courtyard house takes too long, and Jiang Wanwan is worried that the house will be in complete chaos before it is finished.
At that time, the family will have to stay in this old house, and their safety will be difficult to guarantee.
Building a two-courtyard house can be completed in less than a month. The sooner it is completed, the sooner we can move to the foot of the mountain, where it is safer.
When Jiang Wanwan called his name, Old Man Jiang suddenly snapped out of his worries. He waved his hands repeatedly, "What do you mean by head of the family? Grandpa is old, my brain is rusty, and I'm useless. Wanwan, do whatever you think is right. From now on, you are the head of our family, and you have the final say in this family."
He knew he was an honest man who only knew how to farm. If he really went up against Su Wan'er, he wouldn't even know how he died. Rather than worrying that Su Wan'er would really ruin his family, he would rather hand over the power to manage the household to Wan'er.
Wan Yatou is a shrewd and calculating person, and he feels very at ease leaving the family in her care.
Grandma Jiang glanced at Grandpa Jiang and said with a sneer, "Old man, do you need to hand over the power to manage the household? Didn't you already hand it over to Wan'er?"
Old Man Jiang's face flushed red; he felt utterly humiliated. "You..."
The Jiang family members couldn't help but suppress their laughter.
After laughing, Grandma Jiang said seriously, "Wan'er, your grandfather is right. Do what you think is right. It's the same when dealing with Su Wan'er. Do what you think is right. Just tell us what you need us to do."
"Yes, your grandma is right."
In their hearts, Jiang Wanwan had long been the head of the Jiang family.
“Okay, I understand. In that case, Uncle will go to town tomorrow to order the bricks and tiles. Once the locusts are mostly caught, we will ask the villagers to help build the house.”
