Lai Xi frowned and interrupted his family's worries in time.

"Don't worry, I have already made an agreement with Miss Liu that she will get along well with you after she comes in."

Everyone looked at Lai Xi inquiringly.

Ximei even gave a playful smile.

"I really didn't realize that my second brother has the skills to deal with girls. You usually don't say a word, but how come you made that powerful girl from the Liu family obey you after just two meetings?"

Lai Xi's face froze when he heard this. He had no means of treating a girl.

The two of them are just in a contractual marriage, so there is no question of whether they like each other or not.

But that girl dares to love and hate, and seems reckless in dealing with things, but it is the best protective color. She is really different from those girls who just act unreasonable.

This is what he appreciates the most. He has also heard all the rumors about Liu Siyu, but so what?

In his opinion, if an orphan and a widow who were forced to that point did not know how to fight back, they would be at the mercy of others.

He believed that Liu Siyu would abide by the terms of the contract and would not do anything wrong in his house.

This is enough.

His family no longer had to run around for his marriage and worry about it, keeping them awake all night, and he no longer had to be forced by his family to go and see girls often.

You can free up more time to take care of the orchards and chickens and ducks, which is the real thing that can change a family's life.

Yingshan Village, Liujiayuan.

Wang thought that the engagement would be formally announced in three days. Once it was made public, there would be no chance to ease the situation. She sighed, "Siyu, have you really thought it through?"

Liu Siyu was slightly surprised. Was Wang really afraid that she would be poor if she married into the Tian family, or did she have other plans?

"Why don't you want me to marry into the Tian family?"

Wang looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"You are so stupid. The Tian family fell into poverty 10 years ago. As the years passed, life became increasingly difficult. Anyone with eyesight would not jump into that fire pit."

"Is the Tian family really that terrible?" Liu Sihan looked worried.

Wang said angrily, "If he's not scary, why don't girls dare to marry him? He's already 18 years old and he's not bad looking. When families with girls heard about his family's situation, they all ran away in fear."

Liu Siyu chuckled, "Whether it's a pit of fire or a nest of blessings, you won't know until you jump in. Maybe you can even pick up a gold ingot."

Seeing how heartless she was, Wang slapped her on the forehead for the first time.

"Just laugh, there will be a time for you to cry."

Liu Siyu felt that this kind of Wang was a flesh-and-blood person.

He deliberately moved closer to Wang and said with a playful smile: "Don't you still have me when times are hard? I don't believe you won't help me."

Wang turned her face away angrily and snorted.

"Don't flatter yourself. I don't feel sorry for you. I'm only trying to persuade you because I'm afraid I won't be able to explain to your father in a hundred years."

Liu Siyu knew that Wang's words were out of concern, but her stubborn personality was really unpleasant.

She curled her lips and said, "It's boring," and walked towards the kitchen. She hadn't even had lunch yet, but her stomach had already started to protest.

Liu Sihan didn't know what her elder sister meant by "it's meaningless"?

Seeing Wang's bitter face, he hurriedly tugged at her collar.

"Mom, that's not what Big Sister meant."

Wang chuckled, "I didn't know her temper. She's so stubborn."

Instead, he glanced at Liu Sihan and said, "You are so young, why should you worry so much? Stop worrying about me and your sister in the future. Even if we quarrel for a lifetime, we will never become enemies."

Liu Sihan scratched his head with a smile, thinking that adults really have a lot on their minds.

The next morning, Lai Xi reported to the Liu family early.

Early in the morning, Liu Siyu got up and stretched at the door of the main room.

Liu Sihan's crisp voice came from the kitchen, "Sister, are you busy today?"

Liu Siyu yawned in an untidy manner.

"No, what do you want to do?"

"The calf can't be kept at home all the time. He needs to be driven out for a walk. I'm going to go up the mountain to chop some firewood. There's not much firewood at home this year, so I'm afraid it won't last until next winter."

Liu Sihan is like a nagging head of the family.

Thinking of the mother calf and her calf in the cowshed, Liu Siyu's eyes rolled.

It would be better to quit the cattle-herding job while preparing the dowry.

Just as he was about to speak, he looked up and saw Tian Lai Xi at the door, feeling a little embarrassed.

She looked so unlovable with her hair disheveled that I immediately smiled.

"You're here really early, come in and sit down."

As she said this, she walked into the house, picked up a wooden stick and simply tied her hair into a bun.

Lai Xi raised the corner of his mouth, walked a few steps into the yard and did not rush into the house.

He pointed to the kitchen and asked, "Is Sihan home?"

Liu Siyu understood instantly that he was afraid that people would gossip about them as a single man and woman.

Liu Sihan also hurried out when he heard the sound.

“You…you’re here!”

Wang also hurried out of the woodshed and said, "You are here. Come in and sit down."

Lai Xi greeted everyone one by one and sat down in the main room.

Liu Siyu asked Lai Xi to help buy medicinal herbs, but if she took out so much silver in front of Wang, she would definitely be questioned.

He simply grabbed Xi's arm and said, "Come to the bedroom and talk with me."

Lai Xi was stunned for a moment. What was going on?

He looked up at Liu Sihan, then at Wang.

Wang was also stunned, not knowing what Liu Siyu was going crazy about.

But the embarrassment in front of her forced her to speak up. She slapped Liu Siyu's hand away and said, "You are such a grown-up girl, and you are still so clumsy."

He turned to Lai Xi and said, "Siyu is a straightforward child, please don't be surprised."

Lai Xi laughed dryly twice, "Don't worry, auntie, I know Miss Siyu's character."

This made Liu Siyu embarrassed. Her behavior just now was indeed a bit reckless.

But what did Lai Xi mean when he said he knew what kind of person she was?

Just because of those rumors about her and Zhang Zhiyuan, do you conclude that she is a frivolous person?

Come to think of it, you can't blame her. Her actions can indeed lead to misunderstanding.

He tidied his hair awkwardly and gave a dry laugh.

"I have something to talk to Lai Xi about alone. Can you come to my room and sit for a while?"

After he finished speaking, the three of them still looked embarrassed, and Liu Siyu quickly added another sentence.

"Sihan is coming along too."

Wang knew that this was not convenient for her to hear, and she felt a little disappointed, but she still smiled and said a few polite words before going to the kitchen.

When there were only three people left, Liu Sihan also left tactfully.

Through their last contact, Liu Siyu didn’t feel it was awkward for the two of them to be alone together.

Directly said: "I asked you to come here today because I want you to help me."

Helping again, Lai Xi was slightly stunned.

But he still nodded happily.

"What's the matter? Tell me what's going on."

"I want you to go to town today to buy some medicine for me," he said, casually pulling out a cloth bag, "Here are six taels of silver, and the herbs and weights I need are all in it."

Lai Xi stood up from the stool in surprise, "You gave me so much money?"

The meaning is very clear. I didn't expect to receive such trust from Liu Siyu.

Liu Siyu nodded, "Are you willing to help?"
