Transmigrated as A Farm Girl Making Her Family Rich

"Elder Sister? She hasn't been here since Grandma had the incident," Ye Mei Qi continued.

"Ah, I remember now, Elder Sister came two days before Grandma fell ill. She spoke with Grandma in her room for a long time and came again in the evening," Ye Fengqi suddenly recalled, slapping her forehead.

Ye Shuzhi and Ye Shuzhen exchanged glances, suspecting their older sister's involvement in the fight between their mother and Aunt Lai. No wonder she felt too guilty to visit her natal home. Their goal was to communicate with Elder Sister and at all costs keep their father from finding out.

Their mother was in the wrong in this affair, and Aunt Lai was no saint either. Nonetheless, the sisters stood by their mother's side.

"Don't overthink it, and especially don't discuss these matters in front of Aunt Lai or your grandfather, understand?" Ye Shuzhen warned them with a stern gaze, looking at the four siblings.

"Third Aunt, Second Aunt, rest assured, we will stand with Grandma," Ye Mei Qi spoke up.

The siblings nodded together. Even though Grandma wasn't always nice to them, she had never truly harmed them.

As soon as Aunt Lai entered the home, she wanted to discipline them, causing troubles many times so that Grandfather would scold them and vying for the family estate - she was their common enemy.

Ye Shuzhen asked a guard to find Elder Sister and invite her to the natal home, under the pretense of a sisters' gathering.

Both sisters noticed that their mother seemed a little weaker, her memory not as good as before, though she could still eat and drink even if she couldn't scold people as vigorously and lively as before.

For an elderly woman, this was already fortunate – she faced no life-threatening harm, and that was a true blessing.

Passing by that guest room earlier, they glimpsed Aunt Lai on the bed, staring out the window with a haunting gaze, clearly having suffered from a miscarriage as if she had aged several years.

Ye Shiqi only stayed in Grandma's room for a short while before appearing outside with her fourth sister. They went to the living room.

Mrs. Mo was there with a strange old woman, along with Zhong Xingwang, the Third Uncle; their parents were with them, making conversation.

After greeting the guests, the sisters sat down beside their mother.

"How have your studies been lately? The teacher hasn't been here recently, so I hope you haven't been slacking off," said Mrs. Mo, smiling at the lively sisters.

"Madam Teacher, of course we wouldn't fall behind on our studies! We really couldn't bear it if you and the teacher left us," Ye Shiqi replied with a smile.

"Madam Teacher, you and the teacher aren't going to stop coming here once you return to the Capital City, are you?" Ye Fengqi asked, a look of reluctance on her face, as it was the first time she'd heard of their possible move.

"Oh my, these two young ladies are so delightful; anyone can tell the eldest sister must also be a beautiful soul—congratulations, congratulations!"

The matchmaker couldn't help but interject as she listened to the conversation; with her quick tongue, how could she allow herself to fade into the background?

Zhong Xingwang..., the matchmaker sure knows what to say; a hefty red envelope is in order.

Mrs. Mo nodded with a laugh, continuously praising the good genes of Mrs. Li and Hongji and commending their education for raising such outstanding daughters!

Hongji..., Sister-in-law really has a way with words, speaking right to my heart. This betrothal is wonderful!

Zhong Xingwang..., Elder Sister is very capable, it seems this trip went very smoothly.

Tang Weixing..., back in my day I wasn't this flattering, yet things went smoothly. It seems the younger generation is even more impressive; this niece of mine is worth her weight in gold!

Mrs. Li responded modestly, believing that it was her good fortune to have children who were smart and clever, even though she, as a mother, was not very literate.

The matchmaker..., doing matches in the county, the daughters of officials never received such attention as this invitation received last night.

So she inquired about this family of girls, and it turned out extraordinary—a farming household that made a fortune remarkably quickly in seven or eight years, evoking envy in many rich men.

They say it was sheer luck that every business they touched won and made money, and those who invested with them profited as well, even the workers on their estate benefited.

And there are those two factories in the village— all due to this seemingly honest and simple man, who is the small boss.

How did he come up with the idea of the bicycle? And those toys, it was rumored to be this small boss's brainchild.

Some who followed suit did well too, but none made their first pot of gold like this family did.

No wonder a young master from the Capital has come here seeking a marriage, just by looking at these two girls; one can tell their elder sister must be exceptionally beautiful and well-mannered.

Contemplating this, the matchmaker foresaw future opportunities to arrange matches, with four more daughters and a Young Master.
