After searching through the original owner's memory, I found out that the owner of the voice was Zhang Zhiyuan, and he was a relative of that old woman Zhang.

His parents sent their three daughters to be concubines, and used the money they got to pay for Zhang Zhiyuan's studies.

But that man is not a student at all, he is a born gigolo.

Under the influence of his father, the original owner had an inexplicable admiration for scholars.

Her heart was devoted to Zhang Zhiyuan. Even though life at home was difficult, she would secretly save anything delicious for Zhang Zhiyuan.

Wang once advised the original owner that Zhang Zhiyuan was not a good match, but the original owner did not know what was good for her and scolded her for being short-sighted.

The relationship between the two became increasingly strained.

Seeing Liu Siyu's thoughtful look, Wang felt a little disappointed.

"Why, you're still thinking about him! He's going to get engaged soon, and I will never let you become his concubine."

Be someone else's concubine?

Liu Siyu couldn't help but shiver.

Liu Sihan also quickly joined in.

"Sister, you must not trust him. His three sisters were sold. If you become a concubine, you might be sold by him one day."

"Sister knows what's going on."

Liu Siyu looked at the little guy's worried expression and felt inexplicably warm in her heart.

As they were talking, a self-proclaimed romantic man walked to the door. He was wearing a long gown and holding a folding fan in his hand in the middle of winter.

He said in a condescending tone: "Siyu, come out, I have something to say."

Liu Siyu touched her nose. This man took himself too seriously.

He snorted coldly, "If you have something to say, say it now. If you have to fart, fart now."

Several people were stunned. Liu Siyu would never say such words in the past.

After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Zhiyuan shook his head as if regretful.

"Si Yu, I've told you long ago not to stay with these rough people. As the saying goes, a red flower becomes red, and a black flower becomes black. If you stay with these rough people, you will be completely hopeless."

Before Liu Siyu could start cursing, Wang jumped out first.

Although there is a saying that goes "Birds of a feather flock together", she didn't understand what it meant.

But she also knew that it was not a nice thing to say. What she hated most in her life was people saying that she was a rude person and uneducated.

Her husband said this to her when he was alive, and she endured it again and again. Later, her daughter also said the same thing to her, and she couldn't bear it anymore so she cursed at her.

I didn't expect that I would be scolded by an outsider like this today.

The anger in her heart suddenly burst out.

"What's wrong with being a rough man? What you eat and drink are all dug out from the ground by rough men. The money you use to study is also earned by rough men with their whole lives."

This sentence is like stepping on the cat's tail.

Zhang Zhiyuan was instantly furious. In his opinion, it was nothing wrong to exchange his three sisters' lifelong happiness for his studies.

But when other people brought this up, he couldn't accept it.

"Bah, you are a bunch of rough people. Do you think I am precious to you? Don't you see how unlucky you are? Liu Siyu, let me tell you, if you leave me, Zhang Zhiyuan, I don't think you will be able to get married in this life."

"Hmph," Zhang Zhiyuan said with a cold snort and walked into the yard, waiting confidently for Liu Siyu to come out and apologize.

He thought that he would squeeze some money out of that girl once she came out to apologize.

But after waiting for a long time, the people in the room simply ignored him.

This made him a little dumbfounded. In the past, whenever he was unhappy, Liu Siyu would always ask for his forgiveness with sweet words.

But today, after waiting for a long time, no one paid any attention to him. He was always proud and was unwilling to bow his head, so he had to leave in boredom.

He came here today because he heard rumors in the village that she was having an affair with a boy from Xinghua Village, and he wanted to warn her.

Although he didn't believe that Liu Siyu would fall in love with another boy, what Mrs. Zhang said made sense, and many people in the village were scolding Liu Siyu for being fickle.

Even though he had no intention of marrying her, the girl devoted herself to him, and he enjoyed the feeling of being looked up to.

So I planned to take her back as a concubine, and treat her as free labor.

I never thought I would be rejected here.

I couldn't help but wonder, is it possible that Liu Siyu was really involved with another boy?

Liu Siyu didn't care what Zhang Zhiyuan thought. She just felt that the self-righteous Phoenix Man was really annoying and didn't bother to pay attention to him at all.

It is hard to find a four-legged frog in this world, but two-legged men are everywhere.

Even if she really can't get married, she will never marry someone who climbed to the top by stepping on her sister's corpse.

When Wang saw Liu Siyu laughing, she thought she was angry. After careful observation, she found that she did not look angry, and a trace of doubt flashed through her mind.

Could it be that this girl has changed her personality?

Even Liu Sihan stared at her with curiosity.

Liu Siyu felt a little embarrassed when being stared at by the two of them.

She understood what the two were thinking. The original owner had been carefully trying to please Zhang Zhiyuan in the past few years and dreamed of marrying a scholar all day long.

A sudden change in personality would indeed make people suspicious, so they imitated the original owner's tone.

"What are you looking at? There are so many scholars in the world, not just Zhang Zhiyuan. I will not be someone's concubine and degrade myself."

When Wang heard her say this, her heart, which had been slightly relieved, began to lift again.

It seems that this girl is still determined to marry a scholar.

But as a stepmother, she couldn't control other people's feelings no matter how she controlled the world.

He pouted helplessly and continued to grind the mill.

Liu Sihan, who was standing by, was just a child after all. When he heard that his sister would not become someone's concubine, joy flashed in his dark eyes.

I thought to myself that my sister had finally come to her senses.

The three of them didn't say anything else, but focused all their energy on the millstone.

With Wang's joining, the speed of grinding the mill increased suddenly.

A pair of skinny hands held the grinding crutch and pushed it with a rustling sound. The backs of the hands were covered with small cuts from the cold wind. When he pushed hard, blood was faintly seeping from many of the small cuts.

Wang was completely unaware of this, and Liu Siyu couldn't help but sigh.

It is really difficult for a widow to make a living with two children.

In order to harvest 60 kilograms of millet and a few acres of land for plowing, she took care of the calf more than her own son and even got up twice in the middle of the night to check on it.

In order to earn a few copper coins, they had to do some washing and rinsing work during the slack season, and were busy all day long.

I was in my twenties, but I looked like I was 40.

Then think about her mother in her previous life, who was a hands-off boss. She didn't have to cook or take care of the children. Apart from working, she just fiddled with her face and hands.

Thinking of my mother's hands as smooth as jade, several herbal hand creams suddenly came to my mind.

If it can be done, it will not only allow Wang to make some money, but also be a way to make money.

She had dealt with several kinds of them in her previous life, and the one she was best at was the one made from fangfeng, jingjie, angelica, peach kernel, safflower and lard. It not only prevented cracking, but also had a great moisturizing effect.

You can go to the mountains to look for siler, schizonepeta, and peach kernel.

Each of the remaining two medicinal herbs was a luxury for this impoverished family.

And that lard, this family hasn’t eaten it for a long time.

Liu Siyu was lost in thought when a small hand tugged at her arm.
