Chapter 130 - 129 Fragrance
The main house was quiet and still, now not quite the busy farming season. With the men working in the fields, the women had time to stay at home and do some housework and needlework. It was within this relaxed atmosphere that Lady Wang grew careless, leading to the current situation.
Lady Wang watched with wide eyes as Ye Xinyan led Qi Jia away, feeling a deep-seated hatred for Lady Han that made her teeth itch with irritation.
This foolish woman, who only understands how to play at cleverness as if her head was kicked by a donkey. On a normal day, her stupidity wasn’t apparent, but once something happened, it fully revealed her true colors as a foolish woman.
What is the current state of the Second Branch family? Can’t Lady Han see it? The Second Branch is not an ordinary household nowadays, especially if you look at the cattle farm that sprung up on that gravel land to the north of the village; it indicates that the Second Branch will undoubtedly prosper in the future.
The gravel land, claimed to be for rearing cattle, has cattle sheds built with more care than the houses people live in in the village. According to those who work at the cattle farm, the cattle pens and corrals, although not spotless, are definitely not like any place for livestock but are even cleaner and more particular than many farmers’ homes.
And then, there’s that expansive stretch of land to the north of the village, spanning dozens of acres, all said to be part of the cattle farm’s property. If the whole area is used for rearing cattle, just think of how many work oxen, industries, and silver that would amount to.
Even if Ye Zi is just the steward for some other owner, the fact that he can manage such a vast enterprise shows the capabilities of Qi Younian and Ye Zi. Even the village chiefs and clan elders wouldn’t dare to offend the Second Branch of the Qi family now.
The Liu family, the largest landlords with property spread over several nearby villages, rushed to bring congratulatory gifts to Qi Younian when the cattle farm began its construction.
