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

When we got to the street, the snow had stopped.

Liu Siyu thought about it and decided that Qingfeng Tower would send 20 kilograms tomorrow. The chef's concerns were reasonable.

After all, the customers haven’t tasted it, and we don’t know how many people will like it.

Send 20 kilograms to Mr. Wu, and Qin Feng is also going to bring 10 kilograms more.

This way there is basically nothing left at home.

Liu Siyu decided to buy another 40 kilograms of tofu today.

But she was only here to take orders today and didn't bring any tools with her. She wanted to go to the tofu shop to see if there were any suitable tools.

Just after turning around the main street, a thin figure stood in the snow, looking particularly lonely.

Liu Sihan was very surprised.

"Isn't that Brother Lai Xi?"

Liu Siyu was also surprised and took two steps forward.

"Are you waiting for us?"

"Well, I'm worried about the slippery roads on snowy days. Have you finished your work?"

Lai Xi asked.

Liu Siyu nodded, "Have you been waiting here?"

Lai Xi smiled and said, "No, I'm waiting at the grocery store next door."

Liu Siyu looked in the direction of Lai Xi's finger and saw that there was indeed a small grocery store.

I wondered, "Do you know the owner of that shop?"

"My family has an orchard, and every year after the Dragon Boat Festival, when we go to town to sell fruit, we always set up the stall next to his shop."

So that's how it is. Liu Siyu thought that she would have to buy tofu later, and it would cost money wherever she went, so she might as well take care of the business of an acquaintance.

It’s a good opportunity to take advantage of Lai Xi’s free labor to buy more.

If it were someone else, she would definitely be too embarrassed to ask for help, but every time she asked Xi for help, she never had any reservations.

"I need to buy a lot of tofu today, so why not go to his house and buy a backpack and a basket."

Lai Xi thought about it.

"If you are worried that the tofu will be crushed if you carry too many baskets, why not buy a basket and let me carry it? It's not convenient for a girl like you to carry a basket on a snowy day."

Seeing that the two men had excluded him, Liu Sihan quickly intervened.

"I can do that too."

Liu Siyu and Lai Xi smiled and shook their heads.

"you are too young."

Liu Sihan frowned slightly, always feeling that he would be marginalized when his sister was with the boy from the Tian family.

"My strength is no less than my sister's. Please don't always treat me like a child."

"Okay," Liu Siyu agreed, and turned around to buy a basket.

When Liu Siyu put 80 kilograms of tofu in the basket, he tried to lift it but found it was totally impossible.

I feel a little worried.

"Or I can go buy another basket. It's hard to walk with such a heavy load on a snowy day."

Lai Xi's mouth curled slightly, and he picked up the load and walked in front.

"This is not difficult for me, as long as you can keep up."

Liu Siyu was delighted and very satisfied with this free labor.

When passing by the bun shop, Liu Siyu stopped. She and Sihan were not full, and Lai Xi probably didn't eat a single bite.

I decisively bought 10 gray buns.

He handed one to Liu Sihan first, then took two quick steps to hand one to Lai Xi.

Lai Xi took a look at the buns and lied that he had already eaten them.

Liu Siyu didn't expose him and just stuffed the bun into his mouth.

"You're a boy, how can you not swallow a bun after eating it? I bought this especially for you."

Lai Xi was surprised by Liu Siyu's behavior. When he heard her say "I bought it especially for you", his eyes were immediately filled with smile.

Liu Sihan saw Lai Xi staring at his sister with smiling eyes, and his sister's face was also filled with smiles.

Is there something crawling over your mind?

The bun in my mouth suddenly felt tasteless.

She pouted her lips deliberately and took two steps forward.

"Brother doesn't care about me anymore since my sister is pregnant with Lai Xi."

Both of them were stunned, not understanding what Liu Sihan was doing.

Liu Siyu raised her eyebrows.

"Why don't I care about you? I bought you the first bun I bought."

Liu Sihan stopped talking, but felt a little uneasy.

He didn't know why either.

He didn't have this feeling when his sister talked to other boys, but whenever she interacted with Lai Xi tacitly, his heart was filled with bitterness.

It was as if the sister who lit up his life no longer belonged to him.

Liu Siyu had no idea what Sihan was thinking, but she always felt that this boy was acting weird today.

I couldn't help but mutter under my breath.

"Could it be that Sihan was frightened by that psychopath?"

Lai Xi paused.

"What neurosis? Did anything happen to you?"

Liu Siyu casually recounted what happened today.

Lai Xi frowned, "Next time you come to town, just tell me and I'll accompany you."

Liu Siyu smiled and said nothing.

She couldn't afford to hire a bodyguard for such a small business.

The three of them didn't say anything else, their footsteps crunching on the snow.

As soon as I arrived at the village entrance, I saw Wang already waiting in the wind and snow.

Seeing Lai Xi helping to carry the load, I felt a lot more relaxed.

But he still walked quickly to meet him.

"I'll pick it up for a while, you can rest your shoulders."

Lai Xi did not stop.

"It's okay, we'll be home in just a few steps."

Wang was no longer polite, but pulled Liu Siyu and whispered, "Didn't you say you were going to take a look? Why did you specially call Xier up?"

Liu Siyu also whispered and told Fang Mu's story.

Wang was silent for a while, and finally muttered softly.

"Fang Mu is a good guy. He has a good family background and is skilled in craftsmanship, but his mother treats her two sons like the apples of her eye. It's not easy for anyone to be his daughter-in-law."

Liu Siyu didn't expect that Wang was a rare person who understood this point.

Seeing Lai Xi in front of him, he hurriedly pulled Wang's sleeve.

"Speak softly, it would be bad if someone heard you."

Wang smiled awkwardly.

"Mom doesn't mean anything, I just want to say that Lai Xi is pretty good."

Liu Siyu curled her lips, knowing that Wang was speaking against her will.

There was a night of wind and snow, and although it stopped in the morning, the snow on the ground was thicker again.

When Liu Siyu delivered the tofu to Qin Feng's house, she discovered that there were a lot more orders for fermented bean curd in just one day.

She hurriedly bought another 100 kilograms of tofu, and this time she secretly moved the tofu into the ice cellar by herself.

When I returned to the village, I only put a few dozen kilograms in the backpack.

The three of them worked hard and rolled all the tofu, added seasonings and put them into jars before New Year's Eve.

Early in the morning, Wang washed the family's dirty clothes, and Liu Sihan was responsible for pasting couplets.

However, Liu Siyu was in the kitchen frying all the soybeans, corn kernels, peanuts and melon seeds she had bought.

The rest of the work will be left to Wang.

Fried rice balls, braised fish, twice-cooked pork, pork elbow, and stir-fried shredded pork with garlic sprouts.

Together with fried eggs and a few vegetarian dishes, the altar was filled with 1 dishes for the first time.

Wang filled another large bowl with rice, lit three incense sticks, and then pulled Liu Siyu and Liu Sihan to kneel in front of the altar.

"Kowtow to your father and ask him to bless our family and bring prosperity to the coming year."

Then he specifically said to Liu Siyu: “Especially you, let him bless you with a smooth marriage and a caring husband.”

After hearing this, Liu Sihan began to pray in a serious manner.

Liu Siyu secretly curled her lips.

If the dead could really hear the voices of the living, and knew that their most beloved daughter had been possessed by someone else, they would be so angry that they would crawl out of their graves!

No matter how much you think about it, you still have to do some superficial work.

A long time after the two siblings finished praying, Wang was still talking at length about everything at home.

Liu Siyu touched her rumbling stomach and couldn't help but remind her.

"Dad is a scholar, he must like to eat quietly, let's eat, the food is getting cold."

"That won't work. We have to wait until the incense ash burns out. We have worked so hard to get these 10 bowls together. We have to wait for your father to enjoy his meal."

It was the night of the 30th and they had just sat down by the fire when they heard a loud noise outside the yard.

Liu Siyu hurriedly opened the door to the main room.

In the light of the heavy snow, more than a dozen figures flickered outside the fence.
