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

Wang raised the corner of her mouth, her eyes full of love.

"I won't hide this from you. I really like that girl. I think Xiaohuaer is also interested in Sihan, and Sihan doesn't dislike Xiaohua either. I think..."

Liu Siyu immediately raised her hand to stop him.

"Mom, you can't be confused. Sihan is going to school now. His perspective and ideas in the future will naturally be different from yours. Besides, Sihan is so young. He doesn't even understand what liking and loving are. If he has his own ideas in the future, you can't force him to get married, right?"

Wang didn't care much.

"It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. It doesn't matter if you like it or not. If you live together for a long time, you will naturally develop feelings for each other. Your father and I are like that..."

"Stop it," Liu Siyu stopped him directly.

"I won't comment on your relationship, but I hope Sihan can choose a girl he likes and who shares the same lifestyle as him to live with in the future."

Wang sighed softly.

"I know you are arrogant and look down on country girls, but Sihan grew up in the village, and I know him."

"People change," Liu Siyu still wanted to fight for Sihan.

Wang didn't think so. She felt that Sihan grew up in the countryside and had known Xiaohua since childhood. She would feel at ease if they knew each other well and started a family.

The two argued for a while, and Liu Siyu suddenly gave up.

After all, Wang is Sihan's biological mother, and she is just a half-sister.

Besides, I haven’t asked Sihan’s opinion yet. What if he also thinks that Xiaohua knows everything about him?

Thinking of this, he slowed down his tone.

"Well, if you think she's a good girl, hire her. She'll be paid 300 wen a month, with three meals a day. You decide what kind of work she does."

Wang was a little uncomfortable seeing Liu Siyu suddenly compromise.

He smiled awkwardly.

"I don't necessarily want Sihan to marry Xiaohua. Your Aunt Zheng's Mingyu has gone to learn carpentry. If you want to hire another person, I want to choose someone from your Aunt Wu's family."

"Xiaohua is suitable, and I also want to see what this child is like. If I really think it's a good choice, I will ask Sihan what he thinks. If he disagrees, I won't force him."

Liu Siyu felt relieved when she heard this, after all, she was her biological mother.

After Xiaohua came in, she was indeed as Wang said, quick and hardworking. The key was that this child had a keen eye for life.

After finishing her work in the kitchen, she went to the backyard to take care of the piglet. She looked so dedicated that she seemed to be more attentive than its owner Liu Siyu.

The small business was going smoothly, and the few people were very busy.

Li Lao Da, the logistics team leader, is always busy and has to get up early and work late.

To make tofu pudding like this, you also have to make tofu, chop wood and fetch water, and find time to go to the countryside to buy soybeans.

After sending a few people to the dock in the morning, I had to rush to bundle firewood.

Xiaocao saw this and sent a message to his brothers to bring a cartload of firewood.

Xinghua Village is at the foot of the mountain, so firewood is not difficult to obtain. A truckload of firewood can be delivered to the town every three or four days.

Boss Li was very grateful and would carry a small basket of tofu every time he traveled.

Lai Xi would leave half of it every time he passed by Yingshan Village.

Ever since Liu Siyu started the fermented bean curd business, tofu has almost always been available at home. Now, he kept shaking his head when he saw the tofu.

Wang laughed at Liu Siyu for being picky, but ever since she said that, she no longer served tofu at the table.

The guys in the workshop were eating happily.

Lai Xi always took the opportunity of delivering firewood to Boss Li to come and see Liu Siyu, and every time he spoke, he expressed the hope that she could go back as soon as possible.

Liu Siyu knew Lai Xi's feelings for her, but she deliberately asked, "Why did you let me go back? Are you afraid that the villagers will gossip about me?"

Lai Xi frowned in grievance and coughed lightly.

"Don't you really understand my feelings?"

Liu Siyu was happy in her heart, but she looked like she didn't understand unless you told her.

Lai Xi became anxious and grabbed Liu Siyu's hand.

"I was wrong that day, but I changed for the better later. Don't worry, I won't force you if you don't want to."

Liu Siyu's hand was tightly held by Lai Xi's big hand, and her cheeks turned red for no reason.

She said coquettishly, "Let me go. It's broad daylight. It would be terrible if someone saw us."

Lai Xi showed no sign of giving in, "So what if they saw it? You are my wife, and others will only envy you."

Liu Siyu raised her other hand and punched Lai Xi on the chest a few times.

"You're annoying," he said, pulling his hand back, and then whispered, "In two or three days, we'll be almost done here, I'll go back and check on your orchard."

Lai Xi was delighted, and his eyebrows and eyes were filled with smiles.

"Okay, I'll pick you up then. Last time I saw you holding a fan for a long time in the open-air market, the fan embroidered with lotus flowers is already in our cabinet."

Liu Siyu was slightly stunned. She didn't show any sign of liking the fan that day. She was just playing with the fan because she was bored.

But thinking that the fan would come in handy in the summer, and that it was Lai Xi's intention after all, she instantly put on a sweet smile.

Not long after Lai Xi left, Liu Sihan suddenly came back.

Liu Siyu was startled, thinking something had happened again.

"What's going on?"

Liu Sihan smiled sweetly and took out a small sugar man from her purse.

"Sister, this little candy man is for you."

Liu Siyu frowned, "How old am I? You came back from school just to give me a candy man?"

Seeing that her sister was unhappy, Liu Sihan immediately stopped smiling.

"No, it's about the girl from the Liu family in Xiawa Village."

Liu Siyu did say that if the girl had any problems, she could come to her, but she didn't expect her to come so soon.

"Did she tell me what she wanted to see me about?"

"I asked her, and she said she wanted to meet you, but she didn't say what it was about," Liu Sihan was also a little confused.

The girl looked quite anxious, but when asked what was the matter, she hesitated and didn't say anything.

"Then I'll go see her tomorrow."

Liu Sihan smiled again, held up the little candy man and said, "Sister, try it and see if it's sweet. Yun Duo bought this for me. I couldn't bear to eat it, so I brought it back for you."

Liu Siyu was slightly stunned.

"Yun Duo bought this for you?" He said while moving his hand around Liu Sihan's face.

"It seems that she cares about you very much?"

Liu Sihan didn't understand the meaning of her sister's words and nodded immediately.

"The whole family was very nice to me. They said they were grateful to you for giving them a chance to live."

Liu Siyu's gossipy heart died down, and she thought to herself, maybe Yun Duo simply wanted to thank her.

As the moon set and the sun rose, Liu Siyu saw Liu Lixia again and found that the girl had become much more haggard, and her already thin body was even more shaky.

He asked with concern: "It's only been a month, why are you so haggard? What happened at home?"

When Liu Lixia heard such concern, her eyes suddenly turned red.

He knelt down in front of Liu Siyu and said, "Sister Siyu, please help me think of a solution and point me in the right direction."

Liu Siyu was shocked!

He quickly pulled Liu Lixia up and said, "If you have anything to say, please get up and talk slowly."

Liu Lixia sobbed and told the whole story.

The old woman forced Liu Lixia to ask Liu Siyu for money several times, but Lixia refused. The old woman was furious and issued a final ultimatum, saying that if she didn't go looking for her, she would sell her.
