Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 20 - is not my sister

20: 20 is not my sister

20: 20 is not my sister

Su Xiaofeng finished a sweet and soft sweet potato, still craving more.

In the nineties, vegetables and fruits generally grew naturally without any pesticides.

They were naturally organic.

“Brother, are there any more in the kitchen?”

“Yes, I’ll go get another one.”

After eating her fill, Su Xiaofeng patted her belly, feeling stuffed.

Today was the fifteenth day of the fourth lunar month, the market day in Xiqian Town, and Su Xiaofeng also wanted to go to the town to look around.

To get rich, one naturally needed to be familiar with the local cultural environment, so she planned to scout for business opportunities in Xiqian Town before deciding on her next move.

She too had made her fortune through agricultural products in her previous life.

Her hometown was a small town with uniquely advantageous geographical conditions, where many local foods were delicious.

As a college graduate from a small town who had worked in a big company for three years, she gave up a job with an annual salary of five hundred thousand to start a business back home.

By the time she died, the specialty brand she founded had opened over a hundred franchise stores nationwide and was planning to expand internationally.

Successful in business, her parents urged her to marry.

But wanting only to focus on her business and not on marriage, she came up with the idea of having a child by sperm donation—having a child without needing a husband.

She then planned to live a carefree life with her child.

Unexpectedly, she bought a packet of fake medicine from an unscrupulous trader, failed to get pregnant, and found herself transported back to the nineties.

She also fulfilled a dream from her previous life: she was pregnant and without a husband.

Now with a child on the way and her entrepreneurial experience intact, the nineties were a golden era for starting a business.

As a twenty-first-century entrepreneurial woman, she decided to start from her old trade, making specialty products.

To create specialty products, of course, she needed to learn which local snacks were most characteristic, which had the most development potential, and which could appeal to the tastes of the national audience.

She immediately decided to go to the market, and Su Xiaofeng had Su Peng take her there.

Su Peng wheeled out an old bicycle from the house and smiled at Su Xiaofeng, “Sis, I’ll give you a ride.”

The bicycle looked quite old, probably several years old.

After searching her memory, Su Xiaofeng confirmed that Su Peng could indeed ride a bicycle and could take her on it, and nodded, “OK.”

As soon as she nodded, a notification sound from Xiaoqi rang out.

“Master, Xiaoqi solemnly reminds you that this bicycle is aged, the brakes are malfunctioning, and as a pregnant woman, you should be careful when riding.”

Su Xiaofeng: “…”

She communicated with Xiaoqi using Divine Sense: “Xiaoqi, you knew this too?”

“Master, Xiaoqi’s primary task is to ensure your safety, so I can foresee any factors that may be unsafe for you.”

“Okay, I understand now.

I just won’t ride,” Su Xiaoqi nodded.

She was pregnant now, and of course, all her actions had to prioritize safety.

She had to stay away from anything dangerous.

“Sis, come on, I’ll give you a ride,” Su Peng patted the seat behind him and suddenly lit up as he thought of something, looking at Su Xiaofeng excitedly, “Can you buy me some peanut candy?”

“Sure.”

Su Xiaofeng walked around the bicycle, saw that the brakes indeed weren’t working well, and suggested that Su Peng push the bicycle to town for repair, while she and Su Peng would walk there instead.

Xiqian Town was not far from Xianghua Village, roughly nine miles away, which would take about an hour to walk.

“Xiaofeng, heading to the market, huh?” Along the way, they encountered many acquaintances.

Seeing that Su Xiaofeng was going to the market, they warmly greeted her, but soon started whispering with others nearby.

“Tsk, tsk, Xiaofeng really has some nerve, getting pregnant before marriage and still daring to show her face at the market, not afraid of losing face at all.”

“She’s even with that fool — she couldn’t possibly be thinking of marrying a fool, could she?”

“What do you think, does she want to keep the child or abort it?”

“Who knows, it’s so shameful, really so shameful.”

…

“Luo Yuzhu, the Wu family is expecting someone tomorrow, when is your daughter coming over?” Lin’s mother-in-law looked at Luo Yuzhu, who was about to leave, and asked coldly.

Luo Yuzhu adjusted the bangs in front of her face, revealing a somewhat enchanting face: “Mother, I’m going today.”

The Wu family had said they wanted the person brought into their family tomorrow.

So, she definitely needed to bring Xiaofeng back today.

The eldest son of the Wu family, suffering from severe leprosy, had his hands deformed.

She was definitely not satisfied with such a family.

But the Wu family had a lot of money and influence locally, and the Lin family didn’t dare to offend them.

The Wu family had spoken: either let Lin Jing marry in, or let Su Xiaofeng marry in.

If it had been before, Xiaofeng would never have been considered for this.

Xiaofeng was her daughter, and she felt for her in her heart.

But if Xiaofeng didn’t marry in, her own position in the Lin family would be precarious.

To ensure she could stay in the Lin family, she could only impose this on Xiaofeng.

By marrying into the Wu family, Xiaofeng would be free from worries about food and drink, definitely better than marrying a rogue or a fool.

No matter what, Xiaofeng was her own daughter, and as her mother, she couldn’t harm her.

Letting her marry into the Wu family was also because it was wealthy, and marrying there, she could live like a young lady.

After all, when she herself had married into the Lin family, wasn’t it for the Lin family’s wealth?

If she hadn’t married into the Lin family, without any money, she definitely would still be stuck in that moldy old house owned by old Mr.

Su.

“Mom, where are you going?” Sixteen-year-old Lin Yue, born after Luo Yuzhu married into the Lin family, bore a striking resemblance to Luo Yuzhu.

Looking at her younger daughter, Luo Yuzhu was struck with an idea.

She might not be able to persuade Xiaofeng, but perhaps Yueyue could.

“Mom is going to the countryside to fetch your sister.

She’s somewhat reluctant.

Why don’t you come with Mom and help fetch her?”

Upon hearing Luo Yuzhu’s words, Lin Yue showed little interest: “I only have one sister, that’s Sister Xiaojing.

As for others, how could they be my sisters?

I’ve arranged to go out with my classmates, you can go by yourself.” Saying this, she slung her backpack over her shoulder, mounted the new bicycle the family had bought her, and left.

Today Jianguo needed the family car, so Luo Yuzhu had to go to the bus station and take a coach to Xiqian Town, feeling a bit nervous with the drugs in her pocket.

In her pocket was abortion drugs, and the doctor had said that after taking this medicine, it was indistinguishable from a woman’s menstruation.

As long as she got Xiaofeng to take this drug, she could tell the Wu family that Xiaofeng had her menstrual period these past few days and it was inconvenient.

During a woman’s menstruation, activities like intercourse naturally have to be postponed a few days.

Worst comes to worst, she could talk to the Wu family again, saying that Xiaofeng’s health wasn’t good and that when her period comes, it usually lasts at least seven days.

Yes, that’s what she would say.

So, the urgent matter when she saw Xiaofeng was to get her to take this medicine.

…

The market in Xiqian Town was still quite bustling, with stalls selling fried pastries, vegetables, fruits, pork, chicken, eggs, and everything else one might need.

Thinking of the baby inside her, Xiaofeng felt she should increase her nutrition intake, so she approached a pork stall.

She initially wanted to buy a couple of ribs, but found that at this time, pork was not sold separately; lean and fat portions were connected along with the bone.
