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

In another yard.

Zi Yuan asked the servants to leave and explained the matter of mosquito repellent cream and liquid to Aunt Fu in detail.

Tentatively, "Mom, do you think we should help my sister?"

"Of course we have to help, but it's such a big deal. How could Siyu not tell us in advance and expose her eyes in front of everyone? I'm afraid this matter can't be hidden from the Madam."

Ziyuan immediately stepped behind Aunt Fu and massaged her shoulders.

"I think this is a good thing. By showing off my skills in front of others, everyone will know that the mosquito repellent cream and liquid are made by my sister. Even if the eldest lady knows about it, it will be difficult for her to take it away by force."

Aunt Fu patted Ziyuan's hand and couldn't help but sigh slightly.

"You are still young and don't know how serious this is. If the eldest lady uses you and me as a threat, what will your sister do?"

"Let's not talk about the mosquito repellent liquid for now. As long as Madam knows the secret recipe, she will be able to make different scents very quickly. Even after summer is over, it can be used as a scented powder."

"Such a good business opportunity, even if the Madam doesn't take action, the Master may not be willing to give this advantage to others."

There was a hint of calculation in Ziyuan's eyes.

"Don't worry too much, mother. I will go find my sister in person tomorrow and explain the interests to her clearly."

"As long as she is willing to give me the secret recipe and I present it to the Madam, I will speak well of her in front of the Madam and ask for more rewards."

When Aunt Fu heard this, her heart ached and a look of slight disappointment flashed across Ziyuan's face.

I sighed silently.

"Ziyuan, do you really regard Siyu as your own sister?"

Zi Yuan's smile froze for a moment.

Then he deliberately deepened his smile.

"Mom, why do you say that? I've heard you talking about my sister since I was a child. We left Nanyuan for my sister. Now that we finally meet, how can I not cherish her?"

Aunt Fu shook her head with red eyes.

"Do you dare to say that you didn't have your own plans from beginning to end?"

Seeing that her thoughts were exposed, Ziyuan stopped pretending.

"Everyone in this world should plan for themselves."

"She is a country girl, but she holds the secret of making money. Even if it doesn't fall into our hands, it will fall into the hands of others."

"At least here, we will give her a few dozen taels of silver for the sake of our family relationship, so that she can return to the countryside and live a life without worries about food and clothing."

"The formula will play a different role in our hands. If the Qin family is interested and offers the formula, we will not only receive a generous reward, but the eldest lady will also give me a gift on my wedding day in recognition of my contribution to the secret formula."

"If the Qin family doesn't like it, our cosmetics shop can be revived, and we will be better off. Naturally, we won't let her starve in the countryside."

Aunt Fu felt a pain in her heart and looked at Ziyuan intently.

She had always known that this girl was a scheming person, but she never expected that she would even scheme against her own sister.

But she has flesh and blood on her hands, and she could see Zi Yuan's unwillingness.

But Liu Siyu was her sore spot. She was forced to be separated from him at birth and suffered for so many years in the countryside.

She thought it was too late to make compensation, so how could she bear to see her little daughter scheme against her like this.

Aunt Fu's eyes were glistening with tears and her throat was hoarse.

"I don't allow you to scheme against your sister like this. The secret recipe is a stepping stone for you to climb up, but have you ever thought about your sister's feelings? Do you think this is fair to her?"

Zi Yuan instantly got furious when she heard the word "fairness".

"What do you mean by fairness? I was born in the Qin Mansion and am a young lady of the Qin family, but I live a life worse than even the servants."

"The mother, who was the only one to depend on, was always thinking about her daughter who was not around."

"Is this all fair to me, and why should I put up with it?"

"If you had not lost sight of your own identity and eloped with a man, marrying my father with a pure body, how could I have lived such a humble life..."

Before Zi Yuan could finish her words, Aunt Fu slapped her in the face.

"you you……"

Aunt Fu didn't know what words to use to describe her feelings at the moment.

The words "eloping with a man" and "innocent virginity" coming from Ziyuan's mouth made Aunt Fu feel heartbroken.

Even if she had not eloped with the man and married Master Qin with a pure virginity, their situation would not have changed at all.

When Mr. Qin fell in love with her, he knew that she had a husband and a daughter, but he used his power to force her.

Only after entering the mansion did she realize that it was not her that Mr. Qin liked, but that she had the shadow of the eldest lady.

Except for the three concubines Hua, Wei and Li, everyone else in the mansion has more or less the shadow of the eldest lady.

They are just substitutes.

She had mentioned these words vaguely, and with Zi Yuan's intelligence, it was impossible for her not to understand.

But today Ziyuan still said such hurtful words.

Aunt Fu knew that her daughter always resented her in her heart, so she chose not to understand.

Sadness filled her heart. Aunt Fu sat down weakly in front of the dressing mirror, looking at her haggard face.

Thinking of the good times with Liu Haoran, tears blurred my eyes...

Zi Yuan stared at Aunt Fu with an expression of disbelief. She never expected that her mother would beat her for a daughter who had not been with her since childhood.

Thinking of Han Dongyi's special care for Liu Siyu, resentment filled her heart.

Why, why?

Qin Feng is good to Liu Siyu, Han Dongyi is also good to Liu Siyu, and even his only mother's heart is biased towards Liu Siyu.

How could she not hate him?

Liu Siyu didn't know all this. She just felt her ears a little hot and couldn't help muttering in her heart.

Is someone thinking about her?

The moon sets and the sun rises, a new day has arrived.

After having breakfast, Liu Siyu waited for news from the main courtyard in the small courtyard.

She had already shown her skills yesterday. If anyone is interested in mosquito repellent cream and liquid, they will definitely come to her today.

But the people from the main courtyard did not come, but Han Dongyi came.

Liu Siyu was very confused?

"What are you here for?"

Han Dongyi curled his lips in dissatisfaction and opened his folding fan with a snap.

He fanned himself in a pretentious manner.

"Why, you don't welcome me?"

Liu Siyu didn't want to play Tai Chi with him, so she directly made his marriage with Ziyuan clear.

"If Ziyuan knew that you came here to find me, I wonder if she would think too much?"

"Don't you think I have enough faults?"

Han Dongyi's smile froze slightly.

"Well, I won't keep you in suspense. It's my father who's looking for you."

"Manager Han, what does he want from me?"

Han Dongyi rolled his eyes. "If you ask me, who should I ask? You will know when you get to Qingfeng Tower."

Liu Siyu frowned slightly, wondering if Manager Han also took a fancy to her mosquito repellent cream?

Han Dongyi had no idea what Liu Siyu was thinking and thought he didn't trust him.

He said with a slightly angry look: "Why, are you afraid that I will sell you out?"

After hearing this, Liu Siyu deliberately adjusted her hair.

"It's normal to have such concerns. With my appearance..."

"Tsk tsk tsk, stop being so narcissistic. Don't think you can compete with the courtesans in the brothel just because you put on some clothes."

Liu Siyu's face darkened the moment he heard this.

He actually compared her to the courtesan. Liu Siyu was so angry that she raised her foot to hit Han Dongyi.

Who knew that Han Dongyi was so cunning. Relying on his good skills, he slightly turned sideways to avoid Liu Siyu's ruthless kick.

Liu Siyu stomped her feet in anger and was about to chase after him, but she saw Ziyuan at the door.
