Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!

Zhulan, in a transmigration novel about a supporting female's counterattack through farming, managed a triple leap: getting married, bearing children, and becoming a mother-in-law. The point to focus on: She became the wicked mother-in-law from the counterattack stories. From 26 to 36, not to mention, with six kids in tow, two daughters-in-law, a few grandkids, and a still-living husband—emphasis on the fact that he's not her original spouse, but the one who trapped her into transmigration. Only after becoming the original body did Zhulan realize she was miserably tricked by her two daughters-in-law. The elder daughter-in-law had a loud voice, complete with a 'brain-enhancing' feature—it turned every little issue into a big deal once it reached her mouth. The younger daughter-in-law was timid and weak, bursting into tears at the drop of a hat, perfectly crafting the image of Zhulan as a wicked mother-in-law. Zhulan, ".......This life is really unbearable." Someone, "You still have me." Zhulan, "Ha, you're the one who screwed me over the most!" Someone, "......"

Chapter 68 Dad Left and Mom Passed Away - Part 1

Time passed quickly, and a week blinked by. After paying the tax on the family's grain, half of what was left was sold.

In ancient times, the yield of grain was too low. Even someone like Zhulan, who did not know about farming, was aware of the modern grain yields. In ancient times, with favorable winds and rain, a mu of rice paddy, carefully tended and fertile like Zhulan's family land, could only yield 320 jin, and the maize yield, though slightly higher, was less than 550 jin.

Zhulan's family sold half of their grain, earning just over seven taels, and after deducting expenses such as seeds, they made just over six taels for the year. This was not nearly enough to cover a year's expenses. The family had a scholar, and just the annual cost of his stipend was one tael and four silver coins, not to mention the costs of paper and ink. The two sons were like money pits, and this was just for their education, before even participating in the imperial examinations.
