Su Li didn't even glance at him, and looked at Gou Sheng, saying, "What do you want from me on this freezing day?"

Gou Sheng took a rabbit out of his basket and handed it to Su Li, saying, "Sister Li, I caught this rabbit on the mountain today and brought it here especially for you."

Su Li originally intended for him to take it back and keep it for himself, since it was rare for him to have a good meal.

But I thought he might disagree, and I thought it would be the same if she did it.

"Okay, leave it here! Come over to my place for lunch today and we'll have it together."

Gou Sheng said excitedly, "Thank you, Sister Li. I'll take care of this rabbit first."

Su Li put down her basket and said with a smile, "It's so cold up in the mountains now, don't go next time. Follow me from now on, and I'll arrange a job for you."

"Sister, you're so kind. The luckiest thing in my life is meeting you. I'll do anything you need from now on."

Su Mu was furious; this person always knew how to say sweet things to coax her.

He walked up to Gou Sheng and looked at the thin, small man.

She reached out and pushed him aside; "She's not your sister, don't call her that. Stay away from her from now on."

He angrily snatched the clothes from his hands, threw them on the ground, and stomped on them hard.

"You think you're worthy of wearing clothes my sister bought?"

"Su Mu, what are you doing? Pick up your clothes for me." Su Li said angrily as she watched him throw his clothes on the ground and trample them beyond recognition.

I don't know what's gotten into him. The original owner treated him so well before, but he didn't appreciate it. Now he's starting to hold a grudge.

Gou Sheng looked at his clothes being trampled underfoot, and tears streamed down his face.

Those were the new clothes that Sister Li bought for him. He squatted down to pick them up.

Su Mu kicked him directly in the chest; "Su Li is my own sister, I won't allow you to call her sister, you better stay away from her, or I'll beat you every time I see you."

Su Li pulled Gou Sheng up and slapped Su Mu across the face. "Who are you? What right do you have to interfere in my business? I'm telling you right now, from now on Gou Sheng is my brother, and you're nothing. You're the one who should get lost."

"Sister, I'm your own brother, why are you siding with an outsider?"

Looking at Su Mu's stubborn eyes, Su Li sneered, "Heh? Brother? He wasn't a brother the moment you asked me to go to the countryside in place of Su Jiaojiao."

Su Mu said guiltily, "I was wrong before, but I was blinded by Su Jiaojiao. I will change from now on, and I will never listen to her again. I came here this time because I heard you weren't doing well, so I came to give you..."

"That's enough! I don't want to hear any of this. Get out of here!"

As she spoke, Su Li grabbed him and threw him outside the door, ignoring his struggles and closing the gate behind her.

Su Mu got up from the ground and pounded on the door frantically; "Sister, open the door, I was really wrong, I came here to help you."

Su Mu didn't know what Su Li's current situation was, or why she was living here alone.

Because Gousheng was in the yard, there were some things he didn't dare to say.

Su Li ignored him and watched as Gou Sheng sadly picked up his clothes.

She said with some guilt, "Give me these clothes, I'll wash them first, and give them back to you when they're dry. Don't take what he just said to heart."

"Sister, I can wash it myself."

He knew that the person outside must be Su Li's younger brother.

He must have done something to hurt Sister Li, otherwise, someone as kind as Sister Li wouldn't have chased him out in this freezing weather.

"Okay," Su Li said, not arguing with him over such a trivial matter.

"Then I'll take the clothes home first, and leave the rabbit there for now. I'll tidy it up later."

Su Li nodded.

After Gousheng left, she returned to her room and entered her spatial dimension.

Now that the spiritual spring water in the space has stopped flowing again, she has probably figured out a bit of the situation.

This spiritual spring water is better than before. It can not only improve a person's physique and make their skin whiter and more tender, but it can also increase a person's strength.

The only downside is that this spiritual spring can't flow continuously; it requires gold and antiques to activate it, and each activation only allows it to flow for a few days, like a money-devouring beast.

In any case, she now has half a pool of spiritual spring water, so she has no worries about using it.

The large apple, which still had room, was three times the size of a normal apple.

It takes Su Li a long time to eat one now.

Big apples are different from small apples. When she eats a big one, she feels hot all over and has a lot of energy.

It's perfect for eating in winter; it warms you up completely after eating it, though I don't know why.

But she couldn't possibly share such a big apple with anyone else.

I'm thinking of planting a few more fruit trees.

She could leave a few of the previous fruit trees so that the fruit could keep hanging and growing. She was genuinely curious about how big these things could grow.

Without hesitation, Su Li found a few apples, cut them open, and planted the cores in the ground.

She divided this entire area into orchards, and she did the same for all the other fruit trees.

After working for an hour, Gou Sheng arrived just then.

As soon as Su Li opened the courtyard gate, she saw that Gou Sheng's face was covered in bruises.

"What happened to you? Weren't you going back to do laundry? How did you get like this?"

Gou Sheng lowered his head, not daring to look at Su Li, and whispered, "I just tripped and fell on my way home, it's nothing."

"You think I've never fallen before? Did Su Mu hit me?"

Gou Sheng lowered his head even further; he didn't want his sister to know.

Although the older sister outwardly dislikes that person, they are, after all, bound by blood ties.

"I didn't fight back, so don't be angry."

Su Li was even angrier.

"Are you stupid?! Why don't you fight back?"

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Su Li dragged him to the village doctor.

"From now on, no matter who hits you, you can't just stand there and take the beating, understand?"

Gou Sheng nodded. He was just worried that if he fought back, his sister would get angry and stop talking to him.

He had always envied those who had older sisters since he was a child. Now that he finally had one, he didn't want to lose it because of this, so he was willing to be beaten up.

Su Li took him to the village doctor, who applied some simple medicine.

Back in the yard, she turned to Gou Sheng and said, "Tell me! How exactly did the fight start?"

Gou Sheng had just stepped out of Su Li's courtyard when Su Mu followed right behind him.

After getting a little distance from Su Li's house, he saw that there was no one on the road.

Suddenly, he swung his fist at Gou Sheng, shouting, "You think you can steal my sister? I'll beat you to death today!"

Without saying a word, he started hitting Gou Sheng. Gou Sheng just dodged, not daring to fight back because he knew Gou Sheng was Su Li's younger brother.

Su Mu caught him and gave him a good beating. After she finished, she asked, "Tell me, how is my sister doing in the village? Has anyone bullied her?"

Gou Sheng shook his head.
