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

"Fuck, I know what you're thinking, but Lai Fu and Lai Xi are already married. Although reputation can be fatal when the storm is high and the waves are high, time is the best medicine. When the storm is over, everyone will be able to figure it out."

Xiaocao slowly stopped crying. She knew exactly what her sister said.

Although she appears to be weak and vulnerable on the outside, she is actually very tough inside and does not look at things like other little girls who only see the surface.

The Liang family is treating her so badly now, how can she have a good life if she reluctantly marries into the family?

But she also had to consider her family's reputation. Once she broke off the engagement, her family would be ridiculed by others.

Thinking of this, the tears that had just stopped falling again like a flood breaking through a dam.

Ximei was a little anxious, "Xiaocao, don't just cry. Tell us what you have to say so that we can work together to find a solution."

Suddenly his eyes narrowed, "Can't you let go of that kid from the Liang family?"

Xiaocao shook her head hurriedly.

Liu Siyu finally understood that Xiaocao was probably disappointed and wanted to dissolve the marriage, but was afraid of bringing disaster to the Tian family's reputation.

In fact, she likes Xiaocao very much, just like two people with completely opposite personalities will be attracted to each other because of their complementarity.

She is the type of person who is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, while Xiaocao is just the opposite. She believes that even if she breaks off the engagement, Xiaocao will be able to live well.

It's nothing more than that you can't let go of the Tian family's reputation, but reputation is something that the more you care about, the more others will ruin it. If you let go, you can attract people who appreciate you.

Just like her, her reputation was ruined the moment she confronted the village chief and picked up a kitchen knife to chop the matchmaker, but so what? She didn't care and she still lived a prosperous life.

Thinking about it, he persuaded her, "You want to cancel the engagement, but you are afraid of bringing trouble to your family's reputation."

Xiaocao suddenly realized that Liu Siyu's words touched her heart, but she was in a dilemma and didn't know how to choose.

"Second sister-in-law, I...what do you think I should do?"

Liu Siyu touched Xiaocao's long hair.

She said softly, "Have you ever thought that the Liang family is determined? If you insist on not backing down, there won't be a lot of dirty water waiting for you. By then, the reputation of your family will also be damaged."

Xiaocao's eyes narrowed suddenly. She knew that Liu Siyu's words were not alarmist.

Ximei became even more anxious when she heard this.

"Sister-in-law, what do you say we should do?"

"Cancel the engagement. This is the only way."

Liu Siyu's voice was not loud, but it was powerful.

Xiao Cao hesitated slightly, "What will the villagers say if I cancel the engagement?"

"Your mouth belongs to someone else, you can say whatever you want."

Liu Siyu feels that if a person lives only to feed others, what is the point of living to be a hundred years old.

"Xiao Cao, a girl's blooming season is short to begin with. Why do you care so much about what others think? You should know that in the world of sparrows, swans are not good birds. Those who like to gossip about others are just jealous that others are living a better life than them."

Xiaocao and Tian Danier's eyes gradually brightened as they listened to Liu Siyu's words.

Even Ximei was staring at her with sharp eyes.

"Sister-in-law, why do you sound so comfortable when you talk about this? I hate those gossipers the most. They can't even clean up their own butts all day long, but they try their best to find out about other people's affairs."

Liu Siyu smiled faintly.

"Sister-in-law, it's not that I speak in a way that makes people feel comfortable, but I live in a realistic way and don't care about other people's opinions at all."

"You all know my reputation, but I'm not born a prick. If I can't survive because of gossip, who would have the mood to care about other people's feelings?"

"What you said is exactly what I want to say," Ximei thought of the first time she met Liu Siyu and the gossip she heard in Yingshan Village, and she felt really worried for Lai Xi.

But after getting along with her, she found that Liu Siyu was not like the rumors said, and her temperament and personality were very much to her liking.

It was as if he was born to be a member of the Tian family.

He immediately said to Xiao Cao, "Did you hear that? Your second sister-in-law is right. How can one live without some right and wrong? It's so tiring to live on the good things that others say every day."

Tian Danier also cast an admiring look at Liu Siyu.

I didn't expect that the little girl could speak reason in a way that was quite similar to her grandmother's.

A sincere compliment.

"Sister-in-law is such a wonderful person. Your thoughts and ideas are truly unique. Seeing you reminds me of grandma."

The eyes of several people drifted to the past, thinking of that legendary and colorful woman.

A few people talked to each other, and Xiaocao's heart knot slowly untied.

But when it comes to breaking off the engagement, Xiaocao hesitates.

"The Liang family gave five taels of silver when we got engaged. Where can we get that much money now?"

Ximei slapped her thigh and said, "Don't worry about that. My elder sister and I have been making colored balls these days, and my younger sister-in-law gave us several taels of silver. We can still squeeze out five taels of silver."

"That's right, how can a few taels of silver compare to your whole life?"

Tian Danier also hurried to persuade.

When Liu Siyu thought about going to the dock to do small business, she couldn't help but think of Xiaocao'er's accounting ability.

I'm afraid that Wang and Yun Duo alone would not be able to run a stall. Even if Lu Sheng was added, they might not be able to calculate the daily expenses and income clearly.

He immediately smiled and said, "Xiao Cao, if you feel bad about spending these five taels of silver, you might as well go and earn it yourself."

When Xiaocao thought of the 400 coins she had earned from helping Liu Siyu with accounting for more than a month, she began to look forward to it.

"Second sister-in-law, the workshop is finished, what else can I do?"

Liu Siyu smiled slyly, "You'll know in a few days."

Here, Lai Xi asked Jiu Ye to make some inquiries and got the news that Liang Boren was about to get engaged. After some intimidation, the Liang family took the initiative to come forward and apologize to the Tian family, which also restored some reputation for Xiao Cao.

The cancellation of the engagement went smoothly.

Liu Siyu's stall was also opened, mainly selling some pig offal, tofu pudding, multi-grain cakes and corn cakes, and also some steamed gray flour buns.

On the opening day, many people came from the village.

There were Xiaohualan and Yufen from Yingshan Village, Qingxue Zhenzhu and Yucui from Xinghua Village, and even the white lotus Xiaofeng came along.

The two groups did not rush to surround the stall, but split into two groups, some buying corn cakes and some buying gray flour steamed buns.

When the men at the dock and the boat guys saw a lot of young girls gathered around the stall, they wanted to join in the fun even if they had already eaten.

Liu Siyu felt warm at heart. With so many people caring about her small business, she couldn't be petty, so she served a bowl of tofu pudding to each girl from the village.

Yufen felt a little embarrassed and whispered to Liu Siyu, "There are so many people in the village. If you give everyone a bowl, you will lose a lot today."

Liu Siyu smiled sweetly.

"My bowls of tofu pudding are nothing compared to your kindness."

Then he pointed at the men who came one after another and said, "Look, you have attracted so many businesses to this station, and the bowl of tofu pudding is not a loss at all."
