Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1412 - 1414: Disappointment? Reluctance? Or Something Else?

Xiaoxiao’s words are quite frank; indeed, it’s something others haven’t tried, and you really don’t know whether it can make money. Only someone as bold as Xiaoxiao dares to try it. An average family wouldn’t dare to because they can’t afford the loss.

Xiaoxiao continued, "By logic, I’m just a daughter-in-law who married into the family; it would be good enough to do my part without meddling too broadly. I’ve managed to let everyone earn some small Silver, which is already quite good, so you can’t really find any fault with me."

Everyone understood her words clearly. Daughters-in-law are outsiders, and many don’t even care about the elders of their own household, only focusing on their little family, let alone these relatives. Xiaoxiao truly has done well.

"However, our father-in-law and mother-in-law feel guilty because while our family has made Silver and lived well, you haven’t had a good time. They’ve been worrying and blaming themselves for not being able to include you. Seeing them like this makes me feel quite uneasy, so I’ve gathered everyone here to talk about this matter."

Xiaoxiao didn’t portray herself as noble; she doesn’t need such a reputation. Honestly speaking, if she hadn’t heard rumors from outside, she wouldn’t have considered leading her relatives to prosperity; she’s not that kind of do-gooder.

Saying this has indeed earned her father-in-law and mother-in-law a good reputation among the relatives.

Xiaoxiao continued, "Regarding earning Silver, our family currently has a fish pond, a mountain, and a workshop. The fish pond is still in the early stages; although we’re raising fish, we haven’t made a coin yet. As for the mountain, it’s even more undeveloped; the food is piled up at home, and I haven’t thought of a way to sell it yet, so I don’t know if it can make Silver. The workshop has made Silver, but we’ve already promised to use it as Yang Qiu’s dowry, so we can’t touch it."

While saying these things, Xiaoxiao also observed everyone’s expressions, wanting to see what their reactions would be to her claims of one thing or another being unfeasible - would they be disappointed? Unsatisfied? Or something else?

Sure enough, someone couldn’t hold back their eagerness. It was the eldest aunt who spoke up, "Wife of Yang Ming, let’s not get involved with your family’s matters for now. You seem to have a clever mind; can you think of another way for us to earn Silver? We don’t necessarily need to earn as much as your family, just to live better, eat better, and let the kids attend School—it’s enough."

At this time, the third aunt also joined in, "Yes, yes, we don’t have other requests."

Once the two wives spoke up, the heads of their families immediately signaled them to silence.

Seeing the eye signals from their family heads, the eldest and third aunts had no choice but to stop talking.

Others originally had no opinions, so they also remained silent.

Xiaoxiao was very satisfied with their reactions. Initially, she thought the eldest aunt wanted to get involved when she spoke up. Now it seemed she really overthought the situation. Since that’s the case, there’s no need to test further; everyone seems to be well-intentioned and adorable. It’s worth helping them.

So she spoke up, "After thinking it over, the only way to earn Silver would be making spicy cabbage and sauerkraut. Our family has a lot going on this year, so we won’t be making the spicy cabbage and sauerkraut. You can take over this task. Although it’s just for the winter, it’s still quite profitable."
