Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

A benefactor?

Yao Feiran guessed that Zheng Qingrui had met a benefactor, but judging from Zheng Qingrui's luck, that benefactor must have been lucky enough to meet Zheng Qingrui.

"Then you decide for yourself."

"I'd definitely choose the county seat."

Zheng Qingrui thought to himself, "What kind of important person is this? It's so strange. I'm definitely going to go with my mother."

Yao Feiran didn't say anything more. After tidying up the luggage, she put it in the carriage.

Just then, a figure rushed in.

"Aunt Yao, may I talk to you?"

"What is it?"

"Are you going to the county town?"

"yes."

"But it would be better for him to stay in the village."

Yao Feiran said, somewhat speechless, "Why do you say that?"

"I...I don't know either, I just hope you can believe me, it's for his own good."

"...Kid, go play somewhere else."

Yao Feiran was busy and had no interest in listening to what Fang Su Niang was saying. She didn't care who Zheng Qingrui's benefactor was; she just wanted to go to the county town to live a better life. There was nothing fun in this village, and a bunch of people were just idling around gossiping all day.

Seeing that Yao Feiran remained unmoved, Fang Su Niang grew anxious. Suddenly, her eyes welled up with tears as she said, "I love Zheng Qingrui. I will have a large dowry. Can you let us get engaged?"

In this dynasty, engagements had legal effect; a marriage contract was required, and the couple had to reach the legal age to get married.

"You're still too young, let's talk about it when you're older."

"It's an arranged marriage, and as long as you agree, Qingrui will agree. He listens to you the most."

"No, Qingrui has to be willing to marry whatever kind of wife he wants." Yao Feiran stared at her: "Why do you insist on marrying Qingrui? You're both too young. Don't talk about liking or disliking him."

Fang Suniang kept her head down and remained silent until Yao Feiran pulled the carriage outside. Only then did she murmur, "If I don't marry him, I will die..."

The sentence was very small, but Yao Feiran heard it.

"His system is inhuman! It kidnaps people to ancient times, and when they can't win them over, it kills them."

The Fate-Defying Pearl said, "Now you know how good I am, right?"

"Yes, you are my precious little darling."

"........Shut up."

"Do you think I should try to match these two up?"

"Since her goal is Zheng Qingrui, it's definitely not as simple as marriage. When your eldest son loses his luck and becomes poor and destitute, you can't blame me for dragging him down with you."

"Alright then, let's see who has the best skills."

Yao Feiran pulled the carriage away with the two children, who were very accepting of the situation. However, Zheng Zhusheng appeared in front of them.

"Mother, you must take the child to the county town."

"Stop talking nonsense, what do you want?"

Zheng Zhusheng feigned concern, saying, "We don't have any relatives in the county town. My second and third sons are also members of the Zheng family, and as the eldest brother, I'm just concerned about them."

Yao Feiran knew the other party was trying to get information out of her; they probably knew she had bought a house in the county town. There were no secrets in this village; whatever happened was spread far and wide, and the truth was often distorted.

"Don't worry about me, I already have a house in the county town."

A stir ran through the crowd, many revealing expressions of envy and jealousy.

Zheng Zhusheng's eyes flickered, and he pretended to be sad, saying, "Mother, you really did take Father's money. As the eldest son, I should inherit Father's property. The harvests have been bad these past few years, and An'an is often sick. I hope Mother can take out the money to save our whole family's lives."

"You're shameless! Don't you know how much money your father has?"

Upon hearing Yao Feiran's blunt words, Zheng Zhusheng almost lost his composure.

Yao Feiran knew that wealth should not be flaunted, and she usually went to buy and sell things early in the morning and returned late at night. However, Zheng Zhusheng dared to confirm that all the money belonged to his family.

"This is all the money that the family has worked hard to save. Now that the family has separated, as the eldest son, this money no longer belongs to my mother."

"You've worked so hard, and the house in the county town costs more than seventy taels of silver. Given your family's circumstances before, you couldn't save that much money even if you worked hard your whole life."

The others gasped.

Seventy taels of silver, that's a lot!

Aunt Zheng has struck it rich; I wonder where all the money came from.

Who knows, maybe that hunter gave it to me; he was really generous.

At this moment, Wang Douniang had a mournful face, looking determined not to give up until she got what she wanted.

"Mother, you must leave us a way to live. You can't leave, or we'll sue the magistrate for stealing all the money from the house."

Yao Feiran knew roughly why they did this; they probably thought that the money came from Wu Zhuang, that the two were having an affair, and that Yao Feiran was too ashamed to tell anyone, so they would eventually find a way to keep quiet.

"Go ahead and sue me. If you don't mind the trouble, then sue me."

No matter what, Yao Feiran is his nominal mother. If he dares to sue his parents, he should be severely punished.

Wang Douniang's expression froze, seemingly not expecting Yao Feiran to be unafraid.

Zheng Sheshan walked over and said, "Zheng family member, you need to think this through. If you sue your parents, you'll get fifty lashes first."

Zheng Zhusheng broke out in a cold sweat. He had spent his whole life digging in the fields and had never heard of this before.

Yao Feiran felt that it was really good to be of this generation in this ancient era. She looked at the various expressions on the faces around her.

"When I went into the mountains before, I saw an injured tiger. I partnered with Wu Zhuang to kill the tiger and sold the tiger skin to the eldest son of the Liu family. That's how we got this money. You gossipy people, don't say that Wu Zhuang and I had any affair. He's not even as strong as me. I wouldn't even look at him."

Yao Feiran picked up a knife from inside the carriage and placed it next to Zheng Sheshan. Zheng Sheshan's legs trembled and he almost knelt down.

"Son, if you don't have money, go earn it. Trying to get something for nothing? You don't even deserve it!" Yao Feiran suddenly raised her voice: "Did you hear me?!"

"I...I heard it."

"You heard me, why aren't you moving aside!"

This shout wasn't just from Zheng Sheshan; the other onlookers also scrambled away.

Back in the carriage, Zheng Xiaotao said happily, "Mom, you're amazing! I want to be like you when I grow up."

Zheng Qingrui said, "Mother is too barbaric. She solves everything with her fists. Men don't like such domineering women. Sister, you can't be like Mother, or no one will want you."

boom!boom!

Yao Feiran gave him a good beating inside the carriage.

After returning to the county town, Yao Feiran enrolled Zheng Qingrui in school and hired an embroiderer to teach Zheng Xiaotao embroidery at home.

Although Zheng Qingrui was the oldest in the class, he quickly adapted and became exceptionally hardworking.

She began preparing for brewing.

A few months later, the house next door was bought by someone, who turned out to be a member of the Fang family.

Fang the blacksmith's wife, Zhang Xiu, said proudly, "Oh, my husband spoils his daughter. She said she wanted to live in the county town, so he arranged for her to move in. This house isn't cheap, but we can afford it."

Yao Feiran: It's truly a persistent ghost.
