Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top

He said he would marry no one but me, and that he would love only me in heaven and on earth. These sweet words still seemed to echo in my ears.

How could he suddenly marry someone else? Shi Liu was filled with confusion and resentment.

"No, I want to find out!"

Shi Liu suddenly came to her senses, bit her lip, and made up her mind to chase after him. Her skirt fluttered in the wind as she shuttled through the crowd recklessly.

Afan shouted anxiously from behind: "Pomegranate, don't go!" But Pomegranate didn't listen at all.

Shi Liu pushed through the crowd and ran towards the wedding procession. She had only one thought in her mind: to get an answer from Luo Jing'an.

Shi Liu desperately chased after him, finally calling out to Luo Jing'an from the front of the group. She was breathless, tears streaming down her face, a last glimmer of hope in her eyes. She believed he was being forced, that he must have some unspeakable secret.

However, what he got was Luo Jingan's cold and heartless words: "Don't bother me anymore, you are not worthy of me.

I am marrying the daughter of the prefect, she can pave the way for my official career, but you, Shi Liu, you are just a country girl, what can you do for me! " Luo Jingan's face was full of indifference and disgust.

Shi Liu's body trembled violently, as if struck by thunder. She looked at the man who had once sworn to love her in disbelief, her heart instantly shattered into countless pieces.

"You...how could you do this to me?"

Shi Liu's voice trembled, her lips quivered, and she could barely utter a complete sentence. Her hands were clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her flesh.

Luo Jing'an didn't even glance at her, but turned and continued walking. Shi Liu was left standing there blankly, heartbroken, her whole world seemed to collapse at that moment.

The wedding procession was filled with music and joy, the streets were filled with cheerful sounds, red silks fluttered in the wind, and people's faces were filled with festive smiles.

Shi Liu stood there alone, the bustling surroundings forming a stark contrast to her own desolation. Her eyes were empty, her face pale as paper, and tears rolled down her face uncontrollably, streaking across her despair-filled cheeks.

Her heart had sunk to the bottom, and endless pain overwhelmed her like a tide. She felt as if she were in a dark abyss, unable to find a ray of light or hope.

The surrounding clamor seemed to fade away, leaving only a dead silence in Pomegranate's world. Her body trembled slightly, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.

Past memories kept flashing through her mind, and the sweetness of the past had now turned into sharp blades, cutting her heart again and again. Shi Liu closed her eyes in pain, but could not stop the tears from flowing.

At this moment, a pair of warm hands gently rested on her shoulders, conveying silent comfort and strength.

She looked up with red eyes from crying. It was Afan. Afan's eyes were full of heartache and concern. His brows were slightly furrowed and his lips were tightly pursed.

"Pomegranate……"

Afan called out softly, his voice gentle and full of pity. His eyes were fixed on Shi Liu, as if he wanted to give her some comfort with his eyes.

Shi Liu looked at Afan, tears welling up in her eyes again. Her lips trembled, but she could not speak. At this moment, Afan was like a ray of light in the darkness, giving her broken heart a little support.

Afan gently embraced Shi Liu in his arms, patted her back gently, and comforted her, "Shi Liu, don't be too sad. It's not worth it for such a heartless person.

He doesn't know how to cherish you, it's his loss. You still have us, and I, and I will always be by your side."

Afan's voice was low and gentle, like the warm spring breeze, trying to soothe Shi Liu's inner pain.

He looked at Shi Liu's tear-stained face, feeling distressed, and continued, "There are many good men in this world, and you will definitely meet someone who truly loves you in the future.

Let's go prepare the supplies first, complete the task assigned by Aunt Xiuying, go back and live a good life, and forget all these unpleasant things."

Afan's eyes were firm and sincere, giving people an inexplicable sense of security.

"Don't cry. It's not good for your health if you cry."

Afan gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Shi Liu's eyes with his fingers, his movements as gentle as if he were treating a rare treasure.

"No matter what happens, I will be with you."

Shi Liu nodded while sobbing. Her shoulders were still shaking slightly, and her voice was nasal: "Well, Afan, you are right."

After calming down a little, Shi Liu raised her head, her eyes gradually becoming firm. The most important thing now was to purchase supplies. Only by buying some of the same things could she take out the things inside her mother's baby.

"Let's go, we can't delay the important matter."

Shi Liu took a deep breath and tried to cheer herself up. She wiped the tears from her face and walked towards the market.

Afan followed closely behind her, always paying attention to Shi Liu's condition, and secretly vowed in his heart that he must protect Shi Liu and not let her get hurt again.

As the sun set, its afterglow dyed the sky orange-red. Shi Liu and A Fan, laden with supplies, slowly set off on their journey home.

The old cow walked slowly, and the wheels made a creaking sound.

The evening breeze blew on their faces, bringing a slight coolness. Shi Liu's mood had calmed down a lot, while A Fan drove the car with a focused look on his face.

Finally, they returned home. Xiuying had been waiting in the yard for a long time.

Fortunately, the warehouse at home was large enough to hold everything. Boxes and bags of supplies were brought in, quickly filling up a corner. Even if Xiuying bought some things from the mall, they wouldn't be noticeable.

Xiuying looked at the car full of supplies and a satisfied smile appeared on her face: "Well done, kids."

Shi Liu and A Fan wiped the sweat from their foreheads and smiled at each other. The fatigue of the day seemed to be relieved a lot at this moment.

After dinner, the moonlit sunset illuminated the courtyard. Xiuying took Shiliu and sat on the steps in front of the door, gently counseling her. Xiuying's eyes were gentle and loving, and her voice was soothing.

"Shiliu, don't be sad because of that kid Luo Jingan. He is so heartless and not worth shedding a single tear for him." Xiuying gently patted Shiliu's hand.

Shi Liu lowered his head and remained silent, his eyes still red.

Xiuying continued, "There are many good men in this world, we have to look forward. You are such a good girl, you will definitely meet someone who truly loves and cares for you in the future." She hugged Shi Liu in her arms and gently stroked her hair.

"Look at us now. We need to plan for the future and not dwell on this sad thing."

Xiuying lifted Shiliu's chin and looked into her eyes: "My dear, I don't want you to become a love-brained person. You don't want to die for a man who is not worthy of you and ruin your life."
