The next morning.

Today is another sunny day.

After getting up and tidying up, Xing'er sneaked behind the tent and secretly entered the space.

After washing up, she ate a flatbread and drank a glass of milk.

Then he filled the water bag with the spiritual spring water.

Then take out the stun gun and place it behind his back.

He then wrapped the loose silver in a bundle and put it away.

Only then did he leave the space to find his eldest and second eldest brothers.

After hearing about their elder sister's situation, Li Dashan and Li Xiaoshan were furious and wished they could punch Liu Xuecai to vent their anger for their sister.

Before leaving.

The two people from the village at the foot of the mountain found Xing'er and said:

"Nizi, you absolutely mustn't tell the villagers that we told you."

"Your brother-in-law's family is not to be trifled with."

Xinger raised an eyebrow:

"Thank you both for telling me. Don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone in your village."

"I only said I was going to see my older sister."

The villagers at the foot of the mountain said:

"That's good. Nizi, you don't know, your brother-in-law has someone in his family working in the county government. Ordinary people really can't afford to mess with your brother-in-law."

"Okay, I understand."

Xing'er knew that the son of her eldest sister's husband's seventh mistress or the eighth uncle's sister was working in the county government!

This relative is very distant.

She's not afraid at all.

"Brothers, you go ahead and do your work. We should get going too."

Upon hearing this, Li Dashan picked up his bundle and followed behind his third sister.

"Third Sister, don't be afraid!"

"So what if they have people working in the county government? Can they interfere in other people's divorce cases?"

Xing'er looked up at her elder brother in surprise upon hearing this:

"Brother, of course I'm not afraid."

"I remember you never cared about your sisters' affairs before."

Li Dashan blushed with shame upon hearing this. "Third sister, I also bear responsibility for the family's previous hardships. I am your eldest brother, but I failed to properly educate you, fourth sister, and third brother."

My father and mother have already spoken to me, and my older brother knows where he went wrong.

We've figured it out. We're family after all, and we can't abandon you just because you have flaws. Your older brother treated you badly in the past, even refusing to help you when you were in trouble, but you've made something of yourself now.

"I don't ask for anything else, I just hope I won't hold you back."

Li Xiaoshan also sighed, and then spoke his mind:

"Third sister, what eldest brother said is also what I think in my heart."

"My second brother is useless. He only knew how to do farm work and nothing else. Now that you've made something of yourself, as long as you don't look down on your second brother, just give him a place to stay at home."

Xing'er walked ahead, pursed her lips, and said simply:

"Let's go see my older sister first."

"Okay~"

The village at the foot of the mountain is 60 li away from Xinghua Village.

It took the three of them two hours just to get to the town.

It was noon.

Xing'er was also a little hungry, and her two older brothers were even hungrier, but they endured it and didn't mention that they were starving.

She glanced at her two older brothers, who had walked for four hours without a single complaint.

So she softened her heart and took them to the bustling parts of Qing Shi Town.

After arriving in Qing Shi Town, the two older brothers looked around cautiously, as if afraid of accidentally bumping into someone.

Xing'er led her two older brothers toward the snack stall.

The first thing she noticed was a plain noodle stall.

It was called a stall, but it was really just a carrying pole. One end had a stove and an iron pot with firewood crackling and burning brightly underneath. The other end of the pole held bowls, chopsticks, seasonings, and bundles of dried noodles.

The water in the pot kept boiling, and white steam rose up.

"Yangchun noodles~"

"Hot, fresh plain noodles~"

"Sir, it's almost noon. How about a bowl of delicious and affordable plain noodles?"

The vendor's shouts weren't loud, but they carried a comforting quality.

This area belongs to the West Market.

Most of the people coming and going were poor families and laborers.

Some of the sedan chair carriers, having finished their work, wiped their sweat and sat down on the long bench, shouting at the top of their lungs:

"Give me a bowl of plain noodles, with plenty of broth!"

"Okay, I'll cook it for you right away!"

Xing'er and her two brothers watched the stall owner cook noodles. They saw him flip his wrist, grab a handful of dry noodles that looked like silver threads, and with another flick of his wrist, the noodles spread out in a fan shape in the boiling water.

The vendor gently stirred the noodles in the pot with chopsticks as long as his arms, and the noodles seemed to come alive, stretching out in the water.

When the time comes.

The vendor skillfully scooped up a steaming clump of noodles, tossed it slightly in the air to drain off the excess broth, and then dropped it into a large bowl that had been prepared beforehand.

Next.

Xing'er saw him pour a spoonful of clear soy sauce onto the noodles, and then scoop up a piece of lard the size of a fingernail and put it on the cooked noodles, watching it melt.

It transformed into a tempting ball of oil, and its aroma instantly wafted up.

Finally, the vendor sprinkled a pinch of bright green scallions on top and poured over the boiling, snow-white noodle soup.

He smiled and served it to him.

"Sir, your noodles are here!"

Xing'er turned her head again and looked at her two older brothers.

Li Dashan and Li Xiaoshan were both stunned.

Their Adam's apples bobbed incessantly, presumably from swallowing hard.

She coughed twice and said:

"Street vendor, could you please cook three more bowls of plain noodles for me?"

Li Dashan shook his head repeatedly after hearing this:

"Third sister, this is too expensive!"

"I'm not hungry!"

The voice just fell.

Li Dashan's stomach had already started to rumble.

"Knock knock knock~"

His stomach growled with hunger, and for a moment his face turned a deep purplish-red from shame.

"I...I'm not very hungry."

"Yes, yes, let's not waste money. Third Sister, let's just buy a sesame seed cake and have some."

"It's okay, I'm a little hungry too."

"Street vendor, how much is a bowl of your noodles?"

The stall owner smiled:

"Little girl, my noodles are delicious and inexpensive, only ten coins a bowl."

"Okay, give us three bowls!"

As she spoke, she took out thirty copper coins from her bundle and handed them to the stall owner.

"Here you go, this is thirty coins!"

"Alright, gentlemen, please find a seat. The noodles will be ready soon!"

After the vendor diligently accepted the money, he began cooking the noodles with practiced ease.

Li Dashan and Li Xiaoshan were a little embarrassed, as they usually couldn't afford plain noodles; it was a luxury for them.

Xing'er didn't care about any of that; she dragged them to sit on the stools.

"It's nothing, it's just plain noodles. Let my older brothers have a taste today."

"This...this is too expensive."

"Expensive my foot! I've already paid."

"But...."

"But...but what? We already had cured pork last night, what's a little bit of this plain noodle soup?"

Li Dashan stammered:

"But Mom and Dad haven't eaten it yet, and they haven't had any milk either. I don't think it's right for us to eat it."

"It's alright, we'll buy some flour and make plain noodles ourselves after we pick up our older sister."

"Oh well!"

"Big brother, second brother, let's eat quickly so we can go pick up our eldest sister."

"good....!"

Li Dashan and Li Xiaoshan then stopped refusing.

Fifteen minutes later.

The special plain noodles just for the three of them have arrived.
