A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best

"Yes, God has finally opened his eyes. He knows that it has not been easy for our family. Finally, our hard work has paid off." Old Mrs. Li was so happy that she almost cried. After years of waiting, there is finally hope.

"Congratulations, sir. Your wish has come true."

"Brother, even though you have become a high-ranking official, don't forget your brothers for their silent contributions over the years."

"Dad, that's great." Li Jiaojiao said obediently.

Li Dajiang looked calm and composed, with a smile on his face, listening to everyone's compliments, as if he was now a high-ranking official.

Old man Li at the head of the table sat steadily. He was happy but a little worried at the same time. Li Xiaoxiao was not someone who could be manipulated by others. He was very ruthless. Now that the family was divided, he had more reason not to listen to him. He should just regret not dividing the family in the first place. But no one could foresee the future and who could predict what would happen in the future?

He has to go to the second brother's house in person tomorrow for this matter. It concerns the future of the whole family, and Li Xiaoxiao must agree to this marriage.

During the meal, Li Laosi and Jiang's attitude towards Li Dajiang's family had obviously changed a lot. They became polite and friendly. Although they never got angry with each other, there was a hint of complaint in their words. They complained that Li Dajiang's family only knew how to ask for money from the family, making the brothers suffer. But now it was different. Li Dajiang was going to become a high-ranking official soon, so they had to curry favor with him.

Liu raised her chin, feeling proud for once. Jiang had always criticized her in the past. She spent a lot of money to support Li Dajiang's studies in the county, but the money she got from the Li family was not enough. Her parents' family ran a grocery store, which was much better than that of ordinary families, and they gave her money in many ways, but for this reason, her brother and sister-in-law had ignored her all these years.

Only Su brought her two daughters, eating in silence without saying a word. She looked out of place with the Li family, as if she were a maid. Everyone in the Li family ignored her and her two daughters and just chatted and laughed, making the scene lively.

At daybreak, Su got up, called Daya, put on a backpack, and pretended to go out to dig wild vegetables. She had heard from Li Chengcai's description yesterday that the county magistrate's son was definitely not a good match. She was good friends with Sun, and Xiaoxiao was a good girl, so she couldn't bear to see her jump into the fire pit.

She often went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, but only after breakfast. However, Old Man Li would go to Xiaoxiao's house after breakfast, so she had to get there before Old Man Li.

She tiptoed out of the house with Daya. There was no one on the road. Su called Daya to go with her because she was scared. The air in the early morning was a little chilly. Su gathered her clothes and walked quickly towards Xiaoxiao's home.

As they hurried along, both Su and the eldest girl were sweating. Su went forward and knocked on the door. Bang, bang, bang. The urgent knocking sounds were particularly clear in the quiet morning. Li Xiaoxiao had already gotten up and just walked into the yard. She wanted to wash up, then she walked to the gate and stood there in confusion.

"Who's out there?"

"Xiaoxiao, I'm your third aunt. Please open the door quickly. I have something urgent to tell you." Su's anxious voice came from outside the door.

Hearing Su's voice, Li Xiaoxiao quickly opened the door, and seeing that it was Su and Daya, she asked them to come in and talk.

Su ran out secretly to report the news. She didn't dare to stay for long and said hurriedly, "Xiaoxiao, I won't go in. To make a long story short, the county magistrate's son said yesterday that he met you in the county town and fell in love with you at first sight. Chengcai was his playmate, so he asked Chengcai to tell the family that he wanted to marry you and gave a betrothal gift of 100 taels of silver. He also said that he would help your uncle in the imperial examination. I heard that this person must be not a good person, so I came secretly to tell you that a girl's marriage is a lifelong event, so you must be cautious."

Li Xiaoxiao didn't expect that Zhang Wenbin actually wanted to marry her, and acted so quickly. However, this was impossible. Putting aside other things, she would not agree to Li Dajiang's help in the scientific examination. She would not get involved in anything related to the old house.

The old house really has a good plan. Previously, she sold her sister to make money, and now she wants to sell her to help Li Dajiang with his future. I'm afraid their good wishes are doomed to fail.

In just a moment, her mind was already turning over a thousand times. Li Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Third Aunt, thank you for telling me. Don't worry, I will not marry the county magistrate's son."

"That's good. I guess your grandfather will come to the party. I'm afraid your parents don't know the character of the county magistrate's son and may decide on your marriage without thinking. It will be too late to say anything then." Su was relieved to hear what Li Xiaoxiao said. This trip was not in vain.

"Miss, it's good that you think this way. My mother didn't sleep well last night, for fear that you wouldn't listen to my advice and ruin your life." Daya was also very happy to hear Li Xiaoxiao's words.

"Thank you, Third Aunt. There are some things that my parents can't decide for me." Li Xiaoxiao made the assurance again. Seeing that Su's face was not very good, she didn't expect that it was because of this matter. She, Li Xiaoxiao, would remember this favor. If there is a chance, she will definitely help Third Aunt and her family to separate and no longer work like slaves for them.

"You are such a talkative girl." Su scolded, and then said to Li Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, we have to leave quickly. We still need to go and dig some wild vegetables. If we go back empty-handed, your grandma might scold us."

Knowing that they were pressed for time, Li Xiaoxiao did not try to persuade them to stay: "Aunt San, please wait for me."

I walked quickly to the kitchen, and when I came out, I had a few scallion pancakes wrapped in oil paper in my hands. I could smell the fragrance before I even got close.

"I made this last night. I made too much and can't finish it. Aunt San, please help me." Li Xiaoxiao carefully wrapped it in oil paper and put it in Su's backpack.

Knowing that Li Xiaoxiao really wanted to give it and said this because she didn't want to burden her, Su didn't refuse anymore. There wasn't enough food to eat these days, so who would have any extra? She felt sad, but helpless.

They could barely eat enough before, but when Li Dajiang came back to ask for money, Old Lady Li was calculating everything. They could eat 90% full before, but now they can only eat 70% full. Old Lady Li is partial to the families of the eldest and fourth children, and they can occasionally have an extra meal. Poor Daya and Erya, their originally thin bodies are now even thinner, and they still have to do a lot of work.

After seeing Su off, Li Xiaoxiao stood at the door for a long time. She really wanted to help Su leave the Li family, but the people in the Li family were shrewd and calculating, and would not let Su and the others leave easily. So she had to think of a way.

She reached out to close the door, and when she turned around she almost bumped into a wall of flesh. Si Chengxu stood behind her without her knowing. She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't even notice when he came over.

Patting his chest, Li Xiaoxiao gave him a displeased look.

"What are you going to do?" Si Chengxu's dark eyes flickered slightly, and he was as calm and composed as always.
