Start with three days of hunger and nine meals, and become rich and tempting

"Whether anyone dares to marry me is my business. You don't need to comment on it."

"Also, my mother is not like your mother who sold her daughter and asked for 20 taels of silver as a dowry."

Yucui said it bluntly.

Xiaofeng immediately looked at Lai Xi with grievance, and her expression made people feel pity for her.

"Brother Lai Xi, please judge for yourself. I was just joking, but Yu Cui poked my spine like that. How can I live like this?"

As she spoke, a drop of golden beans was smeared on her fair cheek, and she continued with a nasal tone.

"How much my mother wants for the bride price is none of my business. I have cried and tried to persuade her, but she is the mother who gave birth to me and raised me. I can't just put a knife to her neck."

"I am also aggrieved. Who can I tell? Why rub salt into my wounds?"

These words confused everyone. It was clearly her who started the incident, and now she was acting like a punching bag, complaining about her grievances as if everyone in the world had wronged her.

Even though Yucui is a good talker, she is ultimately no match for Xiaofenger's scheming side.

I was so surprised that my mouth opened wide.

Lai Xi was about to speak when Zhenzhu beside him interrupted him.

"My sister is a bit of a talker, but she's not the kind of person who would make trouble for no reason."

Pearl's words were as clear as pearls falling on a jade plate.

"If you want others to respect you, you must first learn to respect others. You come here and start to criticize my sister, and you expect my sister to worship you like a Buddha. Isn't this just pretending to be sunny when it rains?"

Liu Siyu's expression didn't change much from beginning to end, as she was just there to watch the fun.

At this moment his eyes lit up.

I didn't expect that this seemingly gentle little girl is actually quite smart when she speaks.

"Fake Qing" is homophonic with "Fake Qing", which implies that Xiao Feng'er is hypocritical.

The others also looked like they were enjoying the show, wanting to laugh but trying hard to hold it back.

The only fool here is probably Qingxue. She has a simple mind and doesn't have so many twists and turns in her mind.

I felt that Xiaofeng was really wronged, but I also felt that what Zhenzhu said was not wrong. I was torn and didn't know who to side with.

Xiaofeng saw her performing for a long time, and Zhenzhu revealed the mystery with just a few words.

She was so angry that her face turned blue. She also knew that these two sisters were not easy to mess with.

One is like a hedgehog, stabbing everyone it sees, while the other one looks soft but is actually a hidden needle, and you never know when it will hit you.

But Xiao Feng'er was really unwilling to give in, and looked at Lai Xi with tears in her eyes filled with grievance.

"Brother Lai Xi, please speak up. What have I done to offend anyone? I came to visit my sister-in-law with good intentions, but I never expected to attract so much gossip."

As he spoke, he squeezed out a few more drops of golden beans and looked at Lai Xi with an even more resentful look.

Yucui's disdainful eyes seemed to break through the sky.

She muttered to herself, "Here we go again."

Lai Xi did not evade the question this time and said directly: "I welcome you to come to my house to play, but if you want to cause trouble here, you should check out the place first."

"Pearl is right. If you want others to respect you, you have to learn to respect others. Not everyone who cries is right."

Xiaofeng didn't expect Lian Laixi to say that. She was so angry that she stomped her feet, covered her face and ran out of the yard.

Seeing that no one came to pursue her and no one persuaded her, she was very disappointed. She didn't expect that her trick that had always worked for her would fail here.

He turned around and glared at Qingxue fiercely.

"If you don't leave yet, do you want to wait for others to drive you away with a big stick?"

Qingxue had no choice but to greet him politely and hurriedly followed him out.

Xiao Cao also smiled and said, "Come and play again when you have time."

Qingxue nodded and walked out of the yard with Xiaofeng. To be honest, she really didn't want to leave and wanted to chat here for a while.

Yucui's eyes rolled up to the sky. Looking at the disappearing figure, she was still very angry and spat fiercely.

"She always does this. She is the one who verbally attacks others first, but as soon as someone dares to resist, she pretends to be pitiful and sheds a few tears, and immediately turns from a bad guy to a victim."

"But the boys in the village all fall for her tricks. Humph, with her hypocritical face, she still wants to keep my second brother..."

Before Yucui could finish her words, Zhenzhu pulled her arm.

Xiao Cao was afraid that Liu Siyu would misunderstand, so she hurriedly said, "My second brother won't fall for her tricks."

Yucui realized instantly that she had said the wrong thing in a hurry. She quickly glanced at Liu Siyu and saw that she was staring at Lai Xi with a puzzled look on her face.

My heart skipped a beat and I thought to myself that something was wrong. I couldn't help but raise my hand and slap my mouth a few times.

"Bah, bah, bah, look at my unbridled mouth," he blamed himself while pulling Liu Siyu's arm.

She said apologetically, "Second sister-in-law, don't listen to my broken mouth. I just talk fast. My second brother only has you in his heart."

Liu Siyu knew what was going on between her and Lai Xi, but the girl in front of her didn't know, and she looked extremely regretful.

He didn't want this girl to feel burdened, so he raised his hand and touched the tip of her nose.

"I don't blame you. Your second brother is favored by someone, which shows that he is very good. It also proves that I have good taste."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, thinking that Liu Siyu was a generous person.

Yucui also had curved eyebrows and eyes.

"It's a blessing for my second brother to marry you. You don't know that some young wives in the village are narrow-minded than a needle tip."

"If anyone dares to think about her man, she will immediately make him anxious."

Ximei glared at her in reproach, "Are you talking about me?"

Yucui was really at a loss for words. She was only concerned with trying to please Liu Siyu and had forgotten that her sister-in-law had once had a big fight with someone over this matter.

He immediately forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Sister-in-law, I didn't say anything about you, I..."

Yucui didn’t know how to explain for a moment, so she looked to her sister for help.

Pearl took her time.

"Why would my sister-in-law bother with us? She is the most generous and loves us the most. She quarreled with someone because that person affected the reputation of our Tian family and because she cares about my brother."

Although Zhenzhu's words seemed to be directed at Yucui, they were actually being flattered at Ximei's head.

Ximei didn't really care and naturally smiled when she heard this.

"You're the only one who can talk so much," he smiled and glared at her.

She picked up two pairs of embroidered insoles from the sewing basket, looked at them in her hands for a while before handing them to Pearl.

"These two pairs of insoles are for you and Yucui. Do you like the patterns on them?"

Yucui was overjoyed. She grabbed the insole and her eyes instantly lit up brightly.

"I have it embroidered with auspiciousness, and my sister's is peace. It's not easy to embroider the words. Sister-in-law, when did you learn to read?"

Ximei raised her hand and patted Yucui gently.

"I do know a few characters, but I don't have the skills to write like this. These are all written by your eldest brother, who said these characters are most suitable for you two."

Yucui immediately began to flatter.

"Brother's handwriting is beautiful, and sister-in-law's embroidery is also good. You two are really that...?"

"A perfect match," Pearl added for her.

"Yes, yes, it's a perfect match."

Liu Siyu blinked curiously.

"You all know how to read. Have you all been to school?"
