When she came, Ren Baozhi had already talked a lot with Si Jiangchou. She first criticized Ren Lanyue, then praised Si Jiangchou to the sky, and finally returned to the topic and said how good Ren Lanyue was usually and how deeply she reflected today.

After a series of combined punches, he hoped that Si Jiangchou could forgive Ren Lanyue.

In fact, Si Jiangchou didn't care much about what Ren Lanyue said. They were already used to hearing worse things than that.

Rather than those attacking words, she cared more about the discussion between Ren Baozhi and Ren Lanyue today.

Before this, although she was imprisoned, she never realized that her predicament was not an isolated case. It was not just the women in the courtyard who were being exploited, but the entire Pingkangfang, the entire Wu Zhou, the Eastern Turks, and the world in general.

She shouldn't hate her female body. Women are not born with sin, nor are they born to suffer.

The ones who are wrong are those who force women into a corner.

Si Jiangchou smiled and said to Ren Lanyue, "I should be thanking you."

Ren Lanyue blinked in confusion: "Sister Si, are you being sarcastic to me?"

Si Jiangchou couldn't help but laugh, covering his mouth as he said, "If it weren't for you, Baozhi wouldn't have told me about your discussion today. I learned a lot too."

"Really? Sister Si, are you really not being sarcastic?"

"Why did I lie to you?"

"Yeah!" Ren Lanyue jumped for joy, "That's great!"

She led Si Jiangchou to his seat with cheerful steps and happily introduced her family to him. Si Jiangchou also politely called them over one by one.

Everyone in the woman's family was not at all shy and greeted her warmly, fearing that Si Jiangchou would feel uncomfortable.

Si Jiangchou took the rice that Ren Lanyue served him and said with a smile, "I'm going to try Yue'er's cooking tonight."

Ren Lanyue's smile froze on her face in an instant.

Seeing this, Si Jiangchou raised his right eyebrow and looked at the table.

Just now she had been chatting with everyone and hadn't noticed the dishes on the table, but now she saw the "dry pot rabbit meat" that Ren Lanyue mentioned.

The reason is simple: this dish stands out among the many delicious dishes.

Black, burnt, a mess.

Of course, it is not without its advantages. The surface of each piece of rabbit meat is covered with a layer of thick and almost solidified sauce, which is shiny and oily. It seems that the chef is very generous and willing to use more ingredients.

Ren Lanyue's toes were rubbing against each other in her slippers, and her fingers were twisting and twirling. She didn't dare look at Si Jiangchou. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum: "This is my first time cooking. I put a lot of effort into it, but it seems something went wrong with the result."

Si Jiangchou smiled gently and said, "Very special."

Ren Lanyue wanted to divert Si Jiangchou's attention and kept using the serving chopsticks to pick up food for her: "Sister Si, this, this, this, they are all delicious, they are all Yue'er's favorite, come and try them."

Ren Baozhi watched Ren Lanyue's movements and jokingly said, "Yue'er, why don't you pick up some rabbit meat for Sister Si?"

"Sister!" Ren Lanyue puffed out her cheeks, "You did it on purpose."

"Why did I do this on purpose?" Ren Baozhi picked up a piece of rabbit meat and took a slow, measured bite. Then, she covered her throat with both hands and pretended to be in pain. "Oh no, this rabbit is poisonous!"

Ren Lanyue's face flushed red, and she whispered to Ren Baozhi, "Sister, I don't care about my reputation! If you do this again, I will be rude to you!"

A smile flashed in Ren Baozhi's eyes: "How do you mean rude?"

"I...I will do it!"

"Come here, let me see if you've gained strength recently."

Ren Lanyue picked up a piece of rabbit meat and said, "See this rabbit? If you keep doing this, I'm going to stuff it into your mouth!"

Ren Baozhi opened his mouth and said sarcastically, "Come on! Let me see the accuracy of your weapon."

Ren Lanyue was so angry that she raised her hand to stuff the rabbit meat in, but the chopsticks stopped in mid-air. She was both angry and amused: "Sister!"

Ren Baozhi laughed so hard that his shoulders shrugged: "Hahahahaha, I won't tease you anymore."

She took the piece of rabbit meat on Ren Lanyue's chopsticks and put it into her mouth. She chewed it carefully, and her eyes suddenly became bright. "Who said this rabbit is poisonous? This rabbit is so delicious! The taste is really amazing!"

Ren Lanyue knew she was pretending, but she was still very happy and giggled in the chair: "Don't eat it, sister, I don't dare to eat it."

Ren Baozhi said very seriously, "It's really delicious. After eating it, my waist and legs are no longer sore. I feel like I can run 800 miles straight."

"Eh? Really?"

Ren Baozhi said confidently: "It is more real than real gold."

Ren Lanyue observed Ren Baozhi's expression, picked up a piece of rabbit meat and tasted it uncertainly: "Ugh——"

She covered her mouth and quickly ran outside, bending over and retching: "Sister, you lied to me again!"

"Hahahahahaha!" Ren Baozhi slammed the table and laughed, "Yue'er, your reconnaissance ability is not good enough. You need to practice it more in the future."

Si Jiangchou ate the food in the bowl slowly and leisurely, but his eyes never left the interaction between the two sisters.

In her eyes, the two teenagers gradually transformed into two little children.

At that time, the lush green grass stretched to the horizon, and they were running on the vast grassland.

The grass was tall, high enough to reach their knees.

They were dressed in gray, but their faces were red. One of them was holding a net bag and the other was holding a slingshot. Their clothes were very simple.

The child holding the slingshot also grabbed a handful of stones. Although it was only a handful, because his hands were small, he only grabbed four.

They were already running very fast, but the rabbit was even faster than them, leaving only a blurry shadow in the grass.

Si Jiangchou ran while aiming at the rabbit with his slingshot, but he missed the rabbit three times in a row.

With only one stone left in her hand, she knew she couldn't miss this time.

In her little head, she quickly simulated the rabbits' movement trajectories and estimated the speed and distance between them.

Finally, she decided on a destination in her mind.

The slingshot was pulled, and the rubber band tightened around her fingertips.

"call out--"

The stone hit the rabbit's head accurately like an arrow. The rabbit's body suddenly stiffened and fell straight to the ground.

"Yeah!" Si Jiaoyang ran over excitedly, grabbed the rabbit's ears, and showed them to Si Jiangchou, "Sister, we are really amazing!"

Si Jiangchou put away the slingshot and said to Si Jiaoyang, "Jiaoyang, practice slingshot with me from now on."

Si Jiaoyang nodded happily: "I want to learn slingshot from my sister! Catch rabbits! Let's go home and let mother roast the rabbits for us!"

"Sister Si? Sister Si? Why are you eating rabbit all the time?"

Ren Lanyue's voice brought Si Jiangchou back to her senses. For a moment, the face of the person in front of her gradually overlapped with Si Jiaoyang. She was tilting her head and smiling sweetly at her, calling her "sister".

The tenderness in Si Jiangchou's eyes had not yet faded. She said, "It's delicious."

Ren Lanyue was shocked and quickly called out to Yaoxia: "Yaoxia, Yaoxia, please go check on Sister Si! There's something wrong with her sense of taste!"

The tenderness in Si Jiangchou's eyes disappeared.
