When the two women returned home in contrasting moods, Zhang Sumei had already treated her hand injury, her expression had calmed down, and she didn't scold them.
Liu Shile found it a little strange, but didn't say anything. Instead, she went into the kitchen to start processing the fat rabbit.
Zhang Sumei hadn't noticed the rabbit before. She was still angry with the girl for causing her to lose money and get hurt, so she didn't want to see her and ignored her.
When the enticing aroma wafted from the kitchen, she realized that her spendthrift daughter had cooked meat again!
Her heart, which had just calmed down, started to ache again. Wouldn't it be better to save it and eat it after those girls left?
The eldest daughter is taking her less and less seriously these days. Is she taking advantage of the fact that she's about to get married?
I was originally planning to prepare a little more dowry for her, but now it seems all her efforts have been wasted!
Fine, you're all so capable, then I won't prepare a generous dowry for you. Let's see if you can still hold your head high when you get to your husband's family!
Liu Shixi was very happy at the moment, completely unaware that her mother had changed her mind again. Although she hadn't made the meat, she was happy to be able to cook meat for her younger siblings.
Actually, we do eat meat at home every now and then, but when my second brother and sister come back, my mom doesn't want to bring out the meat to eat.
But that doesn't matter. My younger siblings are capable. If Mom won't give it to them, they can just go out and bring it back themselves!
So the whole family can happily eat meat, isn't that a wonderful thing?
Liu Shile's mouth didn't stop either. The spicy rabbit meat made her mouth water, and she picked out some to eat whenever she saw something she liked.
They even called it "tasting the flavor," and then showered her with compliments, which made Liu Shixi even happier.
However, this was not the main reason why Liu Shile kept talking. The main reason was that she was explaining her father's rehabilitation plan in detail to her older sister.
Before, in the capital, she was treated to good food and drink and even had medicinal cuisine served to her, spending money without a second thought.
But since he came back, the conditions aren't as good. If his mother has any conscience, she'll probably feed him better. If not...
Liu Shile was too lazy to think about it. She just wanted to finish explaining what she needed to do and say.
She doesn't want to spend too much time on these trivial matters at home anymore; she has more important things to do!
After a sumptuous lunch, Liu Shile picked out the meat without any hesitation, completely ignoring her cheap mother who had a killer look in her eyes.
She realized that if she backed down, people would take her for a fool.
If she were to be a little more assertive, people would say she doesn't respect her elders; no matter what she does, she's wrong.
Since that's the case, why should she be polite? She should eat and drink as she pleases, otherwise she'd be at a huge disadvantage.
As for what her family thinks, well, I'm sorry to say, she doesn't consider it at all.
There was nothing much to do in the afternoon, and Liu Shile didn't plan to go out, but in the end she still dragged her second brother and eldest sister out with her.
After leaving the house, Liu Shile didn't hide anything and directly told them their plans.
Although my older sister is getting married soon, she's marrying into a rural area, so she'll be doing farm work from now on.
The reclaimed mountain is neither too far nor too close to that village from the other side. Once my older sister gets used to it, she can go and manage it.
As for the harvest, Liu Shile didn't care much; as long as the things she took out had a source, that was enough.
So it's okay to give most of it to the eldest sister.
However, based on her understanding of her older sister, she estimated that she wouldn't want that much.
Well, okay, she's overthinking it now. It depends on what her older sister thinks; if she's unwilling…
"What? Lele, Shihua, you're going to clear land in the mountains?"
Liu Shixi could hardly believe her ears; neither of them had ever farmed before, just like her!
Talking about clearing land now? That's a joke, isn't it? Do you think they can do that?
The expression on her face was so obvious that Liu Shile could naturally tell what her eldest sister was thinking.
Then, with a proud look on her face, she said, "Big sister, let me tell you, I'm really good at growing vegetables!"
I take care of all the vegetables in the small courtyard we rent in the county town, and they're growing really well!
"Eldest sister, if you don't believe me, you can ask second brother. Of course, you can also take some time to go to the county and see for yourself whether I'm lying."
Seeing her younger sister's proud expression, Liu Shixi found it somewhat amusing.
But the thought of them going to clear land still seemed unreliable, so she patiently said, "Lele, growing grains and growing vegetables are different."
She usually grows some vegetables in the yard, but they don't grow very well. However, she has a lot to do every day, and it's very hard work.
My younger sister used to be weak and had never done any heavy work. Now she suddenly says she wants to go and clear land. How can that not be absurd?
Moreover, in her opinion, being a worker is quite good; as long as you do your job well, you can have a stable income.
Moreover, the younger brother works as a temporary worker at the most sought-after grain station. If he were to quit his job to farm, it would seem like a bad deal.
So she began to earnestly advise her younger siblings to be cautious, and so on...
"Well, big sister, you don't need to make a decision right now. I got a seed by chance. You can plant it at home first, and we can make a decision when we come back next time."
Seeing that she couldn't reason with her older sister for the time being, Liu Shile didn't want to waste her breath and simply took out the mutated rose seeds.
It was a rather beautiful seed, the size of a grain of rice, and it exuded vitality at first glance.
Before her older sister could react, Liu Shile shoved the object into her hand.
However, she used a little too much force, and the sharp tip of the seed pierced Liu Shixi's palm.
Then, the blood flowing out was directly absorbed by the seed and disappeared without a trace.
Liu Shile acted swiftly, finishing everything almost before Liu Shixi could react.
The next instant, Liu Shile saw her eldest sister's face turn pale. She looked at the seed in her palm with some fear, and then looked up at her younger brother and sister.
"Le, Lele, Shihua, it, it seems to be alive?" Liu Shixi's voice trembled.
This feeling was quite familiar to Liu Shihua, because he had looked exactly like this in the mountains that morning.
However, he had no idea what his younger sister had done, so he smiled and said, "Big sister, of course these seeds are alive, otherwise how could they grow?"
Liu Shile almost burst out laughing when she saw this. Second brother is awesome!
But it seems like there's nothing wrong with this understanding, right?
"No, no, that's not what I meant. I meant it's alive!"
Liu Shixi was so anxious that she was almost incoherent, and for a moment she really didn't know how to describe it.
After thinking for a moment, she threw the seed on the ground and said in a somewhat frightened tone, "Look at this?"
So Liu Shihua looked down at the ground and saw the seeds sprouting and taking root at a speed visible to the naked eye...
Liu Shihua's eyes widened in surprise. What kind of plant could grow so fast?
He's grown up and traveled to faraway places, but he's never seen anything so amazing!
