"Then what do you suggest we do? We have to think of something for our own family," Wang Yue'e said, sounding a little anxious.

Su Tianchen remained silent.

Actually, when they were little, he had a good relationship with his younger sister Su Yun'er, and he would secretly help her when she was bullied by their grandmother.

One year, Su Yun'er was locked in the storeroom by Niu Shi for not digging enough wild vegetables and was also punished by not being allowed to eat. Su Erhe and Feng Yueniang did not dare to bring Su Yun'er food. In the end, Su Tianchen secretly threw a cornbread into Su Yun'er's room.

However, later on, if Niu Shi found out that Su Tianchen was helping Su Yun'er, she would bully his mother Liu Xifeng openly or secretly. Gradually, Su Tianchen stopped helping Su Yun'er and even started to help Niu Shi and others, treating Su Yun'er worse and worse.

The relationship between the brother and sister changed.

“After so many years of confrontation, it’s not so easy to change things all at once. The important thing is to make changes little by little,” Wang Yue’e advised.

"Then tell me, what should I do?" Su Tianchen asked in return.

Wang Yue'e thought for a moment and said, "Never mind, it's not appropriate for you to see her right now. Let me do it."

That afternoon, while the Su family members were either sleeping or visiting other neighbors, Wang Yue'e took two pairs of shoes she had made herself, went out, and tried to avoid people along the way, heading towards Daliushu Village.

When Wang Yue'e arrived at the Chen family's door, she smelled a sweet aroma and guessed it was the candied hawthorn.

Previously, Wang Yue'e, like the Su family, had never realized that Su Yun'er possessed such a sharp mind.

At this moment, Su Yun'er was in the kitchen, making snowflake sugar balls and candied hawthorns with Xiaoshu and Xiaocao.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Mom, someone's knocking on the door, I'll go open it." Little Grass skipped out and then called to Su Yun'er, "Mom, someone's here to see you."

Su Yun'er wondered who had come, and when she came out of the kitchen, she saw that it was actually Wang Yue'e, the original owner's cousin-in-law.

The smile on her face vanished instantly, and Su Yun'er asked coldly, "What do you want?"

Wang Yue'e had expected Su Yun'er's coldness. She had come to break the ice, so she quickly replied with a smile, "Yun'er, I've come today to talk to you about something."

"Okay, go ahead and say it."

Su Yun'er continued coldly, showing no intention of letting anyone in.

"Mother, who is she?" Little Tree asked.

Upon hearing Xiaoshu's question, Wang Yue'e quickly changed the subject.

"This must be Xiaoshu, my good child. You've grown up so much. I'm your maternal aunt." Wang Yue'e introduced herself to Xiaoshu with a smile, but Xiaoshu had never seen her before.

"But I don't know you," the little tree said, and the little grass nodded in agreement.

Seeing the two children's reactions, Su Yun'er couldn't help but twitch her lips.

The Su family has only ever clung to the original owner of this body to suck blood all these years, and has never paid any attention to Su Yun'er's child. They've never even seen him, so how could they possibly know him?

"Oh, that's because you're still young. We'll get to know each other better as we visit each other more often. Your aunt's family also has a younger brother who's even younger than you. You can play together then." Wang Yue'e's face turned bright red with embarrassment, but she still stubbornly continued to try and get closer to him.

Su Yun'er didn't have a particularly bad impression of this cousin-in-law. Every time the original owner went back to her parents' home to help, this cousin-in-law was quite friendly to her.

Although she wouldn't stand up for Su Yun'er, she also didn't do anything to kick her while she was down. Su Yun'er also knew from her memories that this cousin-in-law was also oppressed by Niu Shi in the Su family.

After Wang Yue'e finished speaking with the two children, she straightened up and looked at Su Yun'er, no longer trying to hide it.

"Yun'er, we can't just stand here and talk like this."

Su Yun'er paused for a moment, then told Xiaoshu and Xiaocao to go back to their rooms to sleep.

He went to the kitchen to put out the fire, and then led Wang Yue'e to his room.

When Wang Yue'e first stepped into the Chen family home, she was surprised to find that, although it was an ordinary family home, both the courtyard and Su Yun'er's room were kept clean and tidy.

A faint, sweet aroma filled the courtyard; Wang Yue'e even smelled meat.

Sugar and meat are both expensive items, and ordinary people rarely get to eat them.

But today, even though it's neither a holiday nor a festival, the smell of food can be smelled in Su Yun'er's house, which means that they just ate there. In other words, Su Yun'er is making a lot of money now.

Thinking about this, Wang Yue'e felt even more certain that she had made the right decision to come today.

"Sit down. What's the matter? Speak." Su Yun'er's attitude was still quite cold.

“Yun’er, I know you don’t like us, and you don’t have a good impression of your cousin or me either. To be honest, on the way here, I was thinking about what method I could use to win you over, but when I saw you, I knew that no amount of sweet talk could change your mind. The Su family was too cruel to you before, and you’ve lost your heart,” Wang Yue’e said.

"Yes, you're right. And then?" Su Yun'er said coldly.

"I'm here today for two reasons. First, your cousin and I want to try and mend our relationship. You know your grandmother..."

Wang Yue'e's words were suddenly interrupted by Su Yun'er: "I don't have a grandmother."

In her memory, every time the original owner suffered mistreatment in the Su family, the mastermind behind it all was the Niu family.

“Yes, yes, let’s go with the Niu family.” Wang Yue’e obediently changed her mind.

“You know that Madam Niu is a domineering woman. Back when Grandpa was alive, she controlled him so tightly that he couldn’t breathe. My father-in-law and my second uncle’s two sons have been controlled by Madam Niu for over forty years. They’ve long since become her puppets. Your cousin… he hasn’t been good to you all these years, but he was forced to be.”

Su Yun'er listened to Wang Yue'e's words, her eyes fixed on the beam of light shining through the window frame, and remained silent.

Despite repeated rejections, Wang Yue'e was still unwilling to leave.

She took out the two pairs of shoes she had brought.

These shoes were originally made for herself and her mother-in-law, Liu Xifeng, but she's using them temporarily as a makeshift solution.

"These two pairs of shoes, one pair is for your in-laws, and the other pair is for you. They're nothing valuable, just a token of our apology from your cousin and me for injuring you that time."

Su Yun'er looked over and saw that they were indeed very ordinary and common shoes worn by rural women.

However, it is clear that Wang Yue'e's embroidery skills are excellent; the embroidery stitches on the shoe surface are fine and dense.

"What exactly is your purpose?" Su Yun'er did not take the shoe.

Wang Yue'e let her hand fall and sighed, "Ah, you really hate us. That's right, I would hate them too. We're blood relatives, yet we acted like that... Never mind, I won't say those things. The second thing I came here for today is to tell you that Niu Shi knows about what kind of candied hawthorns you're selling in the city, and she's forcing your parents to come and ask you for money."

"They want money? What reason do they have to ask for money?" Su Yun'er frowned.
