Liu Siyu sighed and silently picked up the bowl.

Seeing that his sister was in a low mood, Liu Sihan also understood that today's incident was because of his mother who hurt his sister's heart.

But as a son, he couldn't blame his mother, so he could only comfort her: "Sister, Mom was just deceived by grandma, she didn't really want to sell you."

Liu Siyu smiled bitterly.

Be it sincere or false, instead of blaming others when you are not as strong as them, it is better to improve your own abilities.

Seeing that Liu Sihan still wanted to comfort him, he made things clear directly.

"Mom wasn't deceived by grandma, but she didn't want to offend either side. She wanted to obey grandma's wishes and fulfill her filial piety, and she also wanted to follow dad's last wish and fulfill the relationship between husband and wife."

"But once something like this happens, it's bound to end up on the opposite side. It's impossible for both sides to be happy. If I hadn't taken the knife today, my mother would have definitely sent me to the Huang family under the pressure of my grandmother and matchmaker Jia."

"Even if my mother couldn't bear it, she would only shed a few tears afterwards and admit her mistake at my father's grave, but my life would be completely darkened."

As Liu Siyu spoke, she felt a chill in her heart. She did not hate Wang, but she also could not understand Wang's difficulties with a grateful heart.

Liu Sihan felt his nose sore after hearing what he heard. What his sister said was the truth. In his heart, his grandmother had never been a good person.

When their times were good, they would come to ask for money everywhere, but when their times became difficult, not even a ghost could be seen.

How could a person who doesn't care about family affection at all be kind enough to find a good family for my sister?

Perhaps my mother understood all this in her heart, but she would rather believe the nice words my grandmother said.

How can I not hurt my sister's heart?

At this moment, Liu Sihan was particularly eager to grow up, secretly hating that she was weak now and could neither protect her sister nor share her mother's worries.

Looking at her sister who couldn't swallow half of the corn paste, Liu Sihan couldn't help but tear up.

"Sister, I know it's all Mom's fault, but I just said something to her. Mom is regretting it in her room right now. Please don't be angry with her anymore, okay?"

These days, the relationship between his mother and sister has just eased, and he has felt unprecedented joy.

I don’t want to lose this warm and happy feeling because of my cruel grandma.

Liu Siyu shook her head. "I'm not angry with my mother. Everyone has a different standpoint. I'm just thinking about the future."

She didn't want Liu Sihan to be caught in the middle. The child was too sensitive and always overly anxious. Liu Siyu hoped to leave him some warmth, at least before leaving this home.

"Are you really not angry with your mother?"

Liu Siyu ruffled Liu Sihan's soft hair and said, "I still have a lot of things to do. I don't have time to be angry here."

She is not the original owner, so she will not be manipulated by others. She will fight for the life she wants.

When Liu Sihan heard this, a hint of joy appeared in the corners of his eyes.

"Sister, I have put away all the herbs I brought back, and I have also put the few pounds of meat in the kitchen."

When Liu Siyu heard this, she hurriedly put on her shoes. She had to make the hand cream quickly and also go to Xinghua Village to talk to Tian Laixi.

Seeing that her sister was in good spirits again, Liu Sihan's worries were slightly reduced.

He hoped that his sister would have something to do so that once she was busy she would have no time to think about unhappy things.

When Liu Siyu came out, Wang was already washing clothes in the yard.

Wang opened her mouth but didn't know how to start, so she simply lowered her head and rubbed the clothes hard.

Liu Siyu had no intention of speaking and walked straight into the kitchen. She washed the meat carefully and cut the fat into thin slices.

Liu Sihan was responsible for making fire.

Wang sniffed. She had seen the meat at noon and felt sorry for it, so she blamed Liu Sihan a few words.

But the son said that the meat was bought by his sister and she would have a great use for it.

The relationship between the two was a little strained, and she didn't know what to say.

Now, I couldn't resist the aroma of meat and walked into the kitchen. I saw that all the meat had been cut and filled a big pot.

The corners of his mouth twitched with pain. "Why did you buy so much meat all at once and refine it all into oil? Did you use up all the money from selling wild boar meat?"

These words were said to Liu Siyu.

Liu Siyu looked up at Wang and knew what she wanted to ask.

But she was still angry and didn't bother to explain in detail.

But then she thought again, this home does not belong to her alone.

"I have used up all the money from selling wild boar meat. I bought 19 kilograms of cornmeal. The rest is this pork. I have a use for the lard, but you can decide on the residue."

"What are you going to do with the lard?" Wang immediately thought of that kid Zhang Zhiyuan, and her eyebrows instantly shrank.

"Are you trying to please that guy named Zhang?"

Seeing that Liu Siyu didn't say anything, Wang's attitude suddenly became tough.

"I promised your father that you would decide your own marriage. What I did today was wrong. You can decide who you want to marry in the future. But there is one thing. If you dare to become a concubine to that guy named Zhang, I will never agree."

"Sister said she would not be a concubine to the boy from the Zhang family, so don't worry, mother, these lard sisters will be of great use."

"What's it for?" Wang stared at her son with a questioning look on her face. It's not that she didn't believe what her son said.

The truth is that this boy has been very close to Liu Siyu recently, and it is very likely that he lied for his sister.

She didn't want her children to continue to be deceived by that kid named Zhang.

Liu Sihan only spoke up in time because he saw Wang was angry and he didn't want his mother and sister to quarrel again. He didn't expect his mother to ask so many detailed questions.

But he didn't know what his sister wanted to do, and his sister said that this was a secret between the two of them. Liu Sihan was suddenly embarrassed and looked at his sister as if for help.

Liu Siyu used a spatula to stir-fry the fat in the pot a few times.

He knew in his heart that this matter had to pass. Even if there was a rift in his heart, he had to at least maintain peace on the surface. After all, they were still a family now.

Wang was a stepmother who had lived in the countryside all her life and had limited experience.

The fact that she refused to be Zhang Zhiyuan's concubine showed that she still cared about her daughter to some extent.

As for not being tough enough when facing Grandma Wolf, it was wrong and heartbreaking, but it didn't mean he treated her as an enemy.

"I want to make some snacks to sell in town. The acorn flour and cornmeal at home can last for a while. When these are finished, I will pay your food expenses on time."

Hearing Liu Siyu's strange and distant words, Wang felt a lump in her throat. The daughter she had raised for so many years had finally become a stranger.

His eyes became hot and he turned and left the kitchen.

Liu Siyu saw the red circles under Wang’s eyes, but things had developed to this point and their relationship could not immediately return to what it was yesterday.

I could only pretend not to care and lower my head to stir the fat in the pan.

Liu Sihan looked in the direction her mother left, then looked at her sister who was stir-frying fatty meat.

The uneasiness in my heart grew stronger and stronger, and my lips moved a few times, not knowing how to start the conversation.

Mother did something wrong today, but her sister’s words not only hurt her heart, but also made her feel very sad.

Liu Siyu is a straightforward person and she hates to see Liu Sihan looking so pitiful and hesitant.

"Just say whatever you want to say. There's no need to be polite with me."

Liu Sihan looked at Liu Siyu carefully, and felt relieved to see that her face was calm and her tone of voice had not changed.

The eldest sister is just angry with mother, and she remains the same towards him.

"Sister, do you hate mother?"

Liu Siyu raised her eyebrows. Hate? Not really, but she was definitely angry.

After all, Wang was a stepmother, so it was good enough that she was not sold directly.

If they met someone with a vicious heart, given their relationship, he would have been secretly kidnapped and sent directly to the Huang family.
