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

Lai Xi stared at Fang Mu's indifferent response.

"Aunt Zhou, she said Siyu is coming into town today and someone is following her all the way so she asked me to keep an eye on her."

Fang Mu looked incredulous.

"You mean my mother?"

Liu Siyu, who was confused, gradually came to her senses.

Suddenly I felt a little bit amused.

She never showed that she had any interest in the other party.

Suddenly I thought of the strange behavior of Carpenter Tan and Fang Mu, and wondered if Fang Mu was interested and Carpenter Tan supported him.

But Aunt Zhou was particularly opposed to it?

Only in this way can everything that is happening now be explained.

But there was one thing that still puzzled her.

She and Lai Xi are going to get married next year, and everyone in the village knows about it.

Why did Fang Mu want to interfere?

Liu Siyu didn't like guessing and said bluntly: "Since we met today, we might as well talk it out."

"Are you interested in me?"

Fang Mu's face turned red all the way to his neck, but he still nodded.

"We're going to get married after the New Year, don't you know?"

Lai Xi's thick eyebrows were suddenly locked together.

Fang Mu raised his face.

"I know, but you haven't gotten married yet. My father said that if Miss Siyu is willing, he will go there in person to cancel the engagement."

"What if I don't want to?"

Lai Xi refused to give in, and there seemed to be anger in his deep eyes.

Fang Mu also felt that this was a bit unkind, but the first time Liu Siyu boasted about it in front of him, he was already moved.

His father also supported it. A girl who had knowledge and talent about household items was born to be a member of their Tan family.

Thinking of this, I suddenly felt more confident.

"Siyu knows furniture and woodworking. We are a perfect match. What can you give her?"

"My family is poor, but that doesn't mean I can't make a comeback in my life. Whatever you can give me now, I will double it in the future."

Lai Xi spoke in a strong and powerful voice, without any intention of backing down.

Liu Sihan looked confused.

Lai Xi and my sister are engaged, and it was my sister who chose him personally.

But Fang Mu’s behavior made him a little confused. He had only met his sister a few times, but he said he liked her even though he knew his sister had a fiancé. It was really surprising!

Liu Siyu looked at the two of them with a confused look on her face.

These two people are not very familiar with her, but they talk as if they have been deeply in love for a long time.

"There's no point in you two continuing to argue here. Shouldn't you ask for my opinion as the person involved?"

Several people's eyes turned to her.

Liu Siyu first looked at Fang Mu.

"I'm sorry, I understand your feelings, but I can't accept it."

Lai Xi felt a sweet feeling unconsciously in his heart.

There was disappointment in Fang Mu's eyes.

"How am I inferior to him?"

"You both have your own merits, but I, Liu Siyu, also have my own principles. Since we are engaged and promised a marriage, I will not easily break it."

The sweetness that Lai Xi just felt seemed to be tainted with a drop of vinegar.

Fang Mumu was stunned. He had always been proud and never thought that his first relationship with a girl he loved would end like this.

She said unwillingly, "What do you like about him?"

Lai Xi's eyes also brightened.

Liu Siyu, however, was very upset.

She didn't decide to marry because she loved him, but Lai Xi was her only choice at the time.

But even if she had to choose again now, she would still choose Lai Xi.

Fang Mu obviously likes her, but Lai Xi is different. Their relationship is a transaction, a contractual marriage.

Although she accepted the reality of traveling back to ancient times, she could not accept in her heart a marriage life where a woman could only revolve around the stove for her whole life.

But this kind of thing is not suitable to be brought up, and I can only find a far-fetched reason.

"I like him. He never restricts me and allows me to live freely."

"I can too."

Fang Mu still wanted to fight for it again.

Liu Siyu shook her head.

"Your mother was able to tell Lai Xi to come out and keep an eye on us, which shows how much she dislikes me. How can I be free facing a mother-in-law who doesn't like me all day long?"

Fang Mu stopped talking. His mother's stubbornness was indeed difficult to change.

When Liu Siyu saw Fang Mu's expression, she knew that this sentence had hit his sore spot.

He smiled and said, "That's enough for this matter. I have something else to do today, so I won't delay any longer."

The square wood stood still.

Lai Xi followed Liu Siyu's footsteps.

Liu Sihan turned his head to look at Lan Xi, then turned back to look at Fang Mu.

In his heart, he hoped that his sister would choose Fang Mu, but his sister's expression told him that she obviously didn't think so.

Fang Mu stared at the people leaving until they were out of his sight, then he slowly turned around.

I didn't have the energy to shop any longer, so I headed home right away.

There were very few people on the snowy streets. Liu Siyu had important things to do and didn't want Lai Xi to follow her.

Then he said directly: "Your mission is completed, I won't delay you any longer."

Lai Xi guessed that Liu Siyu might have something to do in town, but there was still a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

"Okay, then you go and do your work, I'll go shopping by myself."

Liu Siyu dragged Liu Sihan along the way to ask questions. When those people heard that they were looking for Captain Qin, they were quite enthusiastic.

The two walked through the town to the front street, and at the corner of an alley they saw a house with two osmanthus trees in front of the door.

Liu Siyu walked forward and knocked, but there was no response. She pushed the door lightly with her fingers and it opened.

Liu Sihan looked confused.

"His door was not locked, nor bolted from the inside, so why did no one answer after I knocked for so long?"

Liu Siyu also felt strange and tried shouting twice.

"Brother Qin..."

There was still no response from inside.

Just when the two were in trouble, Qin Feng's voice came from a distance.

"Why don't you go in now?"

Liu Siyu turned around and saw Qin Feng walking in the wind and snow.

"You're not home, why don't you lock the door?"

Qin Feng walked a few steps towards the brother and sister, and pushed the door open completely with a smile.

"My house is just a shabby place with nothing valuable in it. Even if a thief comes, he won't be willing to come in."

Liu Siyu laughed, but the moment she opened her mouth, the wind and snow blew into her throat, and the coldness made her cough violently.

Liu Sihan hurriedly patted her back.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

"You drank until you got snowy. Don't laugh when you're outside on a snowy day, and don't open your mouth too wide when you talk, or you'll get snowy and enter your throat, which will cause you pain."

Qin Feng seemed very experienced.

"Come in and sit down. My brother stayed here last night. Before he came back, he told me that the charcoal fire in the house was still burning. It will be fine if you go in and warm up."

Liu Siyu smiled and followed Qin Feng into the yard.

The scene before them stunned the brother and sister.

The yard was filled with broken chairs and tables, as well as miscellaneous items piled everywhere.

There is only a small path from the front door to the main room where people can pass, and the area under the eaves from the main room to the kitchen is relatively clean.

You know, this is where people live.

If you don’t know, you might think it’s a garbage station.

No wonder he said that even thieves don’t want to come in for a stroll, it’s true.

For the first time, Qin Feng's carefree face showed some embarrassment.

"Don't mind me, I'm usually the only one in this yard. Come sit inside. The house is pretty...pretty clean."

Qin Feng said as he pushed open the door to the main room.

The scene in the house made Qin Feng feel ashamed in an instant.
