Chapter 9: Sideways Attack
Here is the translation:
The following is the main body of the article you provided, please enjoy!
When it comes to future plans, there are two paths in front of Wang Qifang: First, stay on the farm and silently replace Wang Qifang, growing old and dying in this desolate farm, with no one grieving or heartbroken after death; Second, leave the farm and start a new life in a foreign land with her own abilities.
Ji Fang let out her legs, scratched her hair, these two roads are too good to choose from, even with toes, who doesn't want to live a happy life?! Although, for now, she hasn't thought about getting married or starting a new family, but also can't be kicked out of the game before it's started, right?
She doesn't know much about the story of Ben Zun, but from the two women and her current situation, we can draw the following conclusions: Firstly, Wang Qifang was born into a prestigious family, but lost her mother at a young age and was ignored by her stepmother as she grew up, thus developing a weak personality; Then, after marrying into the Zhao family, which was of equal social status, she couldn't become a qualified mistress of the house due to her personality issues, so she was bullied and controlled by one of the concubines; Finally, this time she was "exiled" to the farm because she made a big mistake and was thoroughly disliked by her husband. If it weren't for the cooperation between the two families at present, Wang Qifang would probably not be sent to the farm to "rest", but would be divorced with just a piece of paper. Unfortunately, even if it's for the sake of the Wang family's face, Wang Qifang has no foothold in the Zhao family. If there are no accidents, she will stay in this remote small villa until she dies of illness or old age...
Perhaps it was thinking of its own miserable future that the weak and timid true body gave up, leaving its physical body to Wang Yi's wandering soul.
"Alas, you're free now, what about me?"
The newly appointed Wang Qifang furrowed her brow, helplessly gazing at the slender arm and dull skin. Although this body was clearly malnourished, it was still very young, probably no more than twenty-five years old. Alas, such a wonderful youth, the previous Wang Qifang had abandoned so easily.
She gave up, I won't give up. Wang Yirong clenched his fist and decided to make a good plan for the future.
Actually, the two paths I considered earlier, no matter which one she chooses, both have a prerequisite, that is, having sufficient economic foundation. Otherwise, even if she gets a second chance at life, she will still quietly disappear in an indifferent world.
When it comes to economic foundation, Wang Qifang thinks of that sad burden and sighs again. She has no money on her body, and she is not in good health. It's a problem for her to leave the farm, let alone live a peaceful life on the farm. The reason is simple: having no money means having no rights or support. At this moment, she was just kicked out of the house, and some people in the Zhao family still couldn't remember her. What if one day they were in a bad mood and remembered that there was a legitimate young madam in the farm? With just a flick of their finger, Wang Qifang, a lonely and penniless woman with no rights, would immediately become a missing person.
Leaving the farm is even more unrealistic, and not to mention that her body still needs rest now, just the fact that she has no silver on her side is enough to worry Wang Qifang. Her past experience told her that having no money was absolutely unacceptable.
So, the most important thing right now is to make money, make money, and make more money!
When it comes to making money, Wang Qifang is not worried. In her previous life, she had done too many jobs for survival and to support her mother, and any one of them could be exchanged for money. Not to mention that the warehouse behind the wooden house still has so many DIY materials and various plastic, glass, and crystal beads for stringing. Especially those transparent beads, which may not have been worth much in her previous life, but in ancient times, things are precious because they are rare, so they should be very valuable!
No, wait! Wang Qifang thought of those lovely little beads and scraps of fabric, her mouth corners involuntarily curling up again and again, but very quickly, reason reminded her of a very important question - uh, what dynasty was it now?
That Old Lady Feng said it's now the Zhou Dynasty, but there are several Zhou Dynasties in history. Looking at Qian Niang's attire, Wang Gui Fang really couldn't guess which Zhou Dynasty this is. However, she should be able to rule out the Zhou Dynasty of Shang and Zhou, leaving only the Zhou Dynasty of Tang Wu and the Later Zhou of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. As for whether there are other Zhou Dynasties, Wang Gui Fang didn't study history, so she doesn't know.
What?! Lady Feng just mentioned the Great Zhou Dynasty, could it be that the only female emperor founded the Wu Zhou?!
No, it seems that making money is not the most important thing at present. She must clarify the current dynasty and some detailed information about Ben Zun, otherwise her plan cannot be carried out smoothly, and may even bring disaster.
Know yourself and know your enemy, you can win a hundred battles; Wang Jiafang has never fought an unprepared battle.
I was on the sofa, Wang Qifang thought for an afternoon, and finally sorted out her thoughts. Looking at the sunset outside the window, she stood up and stretched, then returned to the farmhouse room.
Looking around the dusty and shabby room, Wang Qifang took a deep breath. Since she had decided to live here for a while, it was necessary for her to clean up the room.
She first fetched a basin of warm water from the space, then rummaged through her luggage to find an old worn-out garment, tore it into strips, took a larger piece and wrapped it around her head, hiding her completely dry hair inside. The rest were thrown into the basin, dipped in the warm water and began wiping down the simple furniture in the room.
I wiped and wiped, Wang Qifang was like a servant, diligently wiping the room from top to bottom. After sweeping the cupboard, she also tidied up the clothes spread out on the bed, neatly placing them in the wardrobe one by one.
Then she folded the quilt neatly and knelt on the bed, pushing open the window on one side of the wooden bed, letting in a refreshing cool breeze.
"Well, this little yard doesn't look so bad after all!"
Wang Qifang used the damp cloth in her hand to wipe the window frame clean, and she leaned against the window at an angle, her gaze casually glancing into the courtyard.
This is a small, independent courtyard with an area of no more than 100 square meters. The overall layout of the courtyard is facing south and north, with three rooms in total. Wang Qifang lives in this middle room, which is the main house, and there are two other rooms on either side, one for the kitchen and one for storing firewood. In the empty space in the center of the courtyard, a large pagoda tree has been planted, and now it has already sprouted tender buds blown by the spring breeze.
To the east was a small courtyard gate, Wang Qifang stretched her head and looked out hard, it seemed that outside the gate was also a yard, but didn't know if it was where Feng Dajie and others lived.
Just as Wang Jiefang was thinking of Qiangniang, someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard. Before Wang Jiefang could speak, Qiangniang walked in from outside with a food box.
As soon as she entered the door, Qiangniang saw that the room had changed a bit and was stunned. How strange! When she came to see him at noon, he still looked like he was dying, but in just one afternoon, he didn't seem to be around, yet somehow he had the energy to clean up?!
And when she saw the clean and new Wang Qifang, her doubts in her heart grew even more - was this still the poor woman who was on the verge of collapse when she first arrived? How did she suddenly become so spirited.
Although Qian Niang didn't know Wang Qifang, seeing the changes in her within a day made her heart full of wonder. It was just that because she wasn't familiar with Wang Qifang, as for what specific changes Wang Qifang had undergone, it really couldn't be said clearly, only that this woman in front of her looked very spirited, and her eyes shone with an unyielding light.
"Feng Dashi, thank you for coming to deliver food to me!"
Wang Qifang saw her staring at herself in a daze and was afraid that she would see something wrong, so she quickly spoke up.
"Oh, right," Feng Dajie heard Wang Qifang's voice and quickly came back to her senses. She put the food box on the table, opened the lid, and took out the dishes inside: "Hehe, I don't know if you have any dietary restrictions, so I just made some ordinary dishes for you to try, see if they suit your taste!"
Wang Qifang followed her hand and looked over, the dishes were not bad, three dishes and one soup, two meat and one vegetarian dish, and a bowl of white rice. After hearing the other's humble words, she quickly replied: "Trouble Feng Dashi, I don't have any dietary restrictions, this is just fine. By the way, Feng Dashi, I've never been out far, nor do I understand the local customs here, can you tell me about our local culture and people?"
"What about the local customs and people?" Qiangniang arranged the dishes, her wandering thoughts were also brought back, she smiled and said: "Well, if we talk about our Qingzhou, there are indeed many stories and legends..."
