Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

"Making tofu is nice, but we don't know how!"

Liu Siyue patted her chest and said, "I'm here for you! I guarantee you'll learn it."

"Really? That's wonderful! If our family had this legitimate business, we wouldn't have to worry about food and drink anymore."

As they were talking, a voice calling for her mother came from the courtyard. Feng Dagang's wife, Su Lianhua, immediately recognized the voice; it was her daughter, Hongying, returning. "It's your older cousin, Hongying, who's back. I'll go out and see."

A moment later, Su Lianhua came in carrying a child, followed by a woman holding a boy's hand. This woman must be her aunt's daughter. There was also a man following behind her.

The two women came in and greeted everyone for the New Year. Su Lianhua quickly introduced them, "Hongying, Zhicheng, this is your cousin Siyue, come and get to know her."

"So you're my cousin April! You're really beautiful. I was a little disappointed that you didn't come to my uncle's wedding last time, thinking I'd never see you again. I didn't expect to see you today."

"Happy New Year, cousin-in-law!"

"Zhicheng, your grandpa and the others are chatting in that room. Go and sit with them."

Hongying called the two children over and said, "Quickly greet your auntie and wish her a Happy New Year."

Happy New Year, Auntie!

Liu Siyue was a little embarrassed. She hadn't expected this and hadn't prepared red envelopes. She patted the two children's heads and felt around in her sleeves, actually taking out copper coins from her spatial storage. The copper coins she had exchanged at the money exchange were strung together in strings of 1000 coins. "Here, this is your New Year's money from your aunt. Let your mother buy you candy." She placed a string of copper coins in the children's hands, but one of them didn't hold it properly and it fell to the ground.

Hongying quickly picked it up. "April, you're just a child. Why are you giving so many copper coins? Just give one or two coins as a token."

"Big cousin, what are you saying? This is my gift to the child, a blessing for the child, and a way to make beautiful clothes for the child to wear."

The two children started wishing everyone in the house a Happy New Year. Everyone gave each other a red envelope, and the two children's hands were stuffed full of red envelopes.

"Look how lucky this child is, to receive so much love."

As everyone was chatting and laughing, the sound of calling for their mother came from outside again. Bai Shuixian knew that her two daughters had returned. She happily brought them in to introduce them to each other. After exchanging New Year's greetings, Bai Shuixian introduced them, "Hongtao, Hongmei, this is your cousin Siyue."

Hongtao seemed cheerful, while Hongmei, whether she was having a bad time at her in-laws' house or something else, always seemed preoccupied.

"Greetings to my second and third cousins."

"Cousin April, I finally met you today. Just as Mom said, you're both beautiful and capable."

Liu Siyue noticed that Hongmei's face was a little red and swollen, but she didn't point it out. Instead, she gave each of their children a string of copper coins.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, why don't you take a few of your sisters-in-law to prepare lunch? Today we'll have two big tables and make sure there's enough food for everyone."

"Mother, we understand."

"Grandma, let's go help too."

"You shouldn't go. Take good care of your children."

The women talked about everyday family matters, while the men discussed spring planting, how to cultivate the land, and how to earn money to support their families.

Soon, the five women had prepared the meal, setting out two large tables with eight dishes on each table: five meat dishes and three side dishes. The dishes were all served in large bowls, with generous portions.

Mr. Feng smiled and said, "Eldest son, bring out the wine from home. Let's have a few drinks. It's not easy for everyone to get together, so let's have a good time."

As they were eating, a voice called from outside the door, "Brother, sister-in-law, we heard that our niece and grandniece have returned. We've come to see them and let the children get to know each other better."

Mother Feng felt disgusted when she heard the two people's voices. Feng Duojin's wife and Feng Duoyin's wife arrived with their son, daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter, and daughter and son-in-law.

The man went to the men's side, and the woman went straight into the main room, instantly filling the room as if it had become dark.

Mrs. Feng's face fell. "You all need to leave now. You're not welcome here. Don't make me kick you out and embarrass you."

"Sister-in-law, Aunt, we've come to pay our respects for the New Year. How can you kick us out?" They were certain that with outsiders present, as long as they still had some dignity, they wouldn't be turned away, and they could then establish a connection with Feng Yuzhen.

"Yuzhen, your second aunt hasn't seen you for many years. Now you're the most successful one in our Feng family. Look how well you're dressed." "Eldest daughter-in-law, what are you all standing there for? Get them out of here!"

Several sisters-in-law stood up. "Are you leaving on your own, or are you going to let us fight your way out?"

"I am your own aunt, this is unfilial and extremely disrespectful."

The group pushed them out, saying, "Sister-in-law, you're being too heartless. You can't take out your anger on us or the children because of the brothers' feud!"

The children are just here to wish us a Happy New Year. How can you be so heartless and cruel?

As soon as the woman shooed the man away, he immediately followed suit, shooing the man out as well, and then slammed the door shut.

"April, you've had your fun. These people haven't been around for decades. They don't even exchange a word when they meet in the village, and they still gossip about us behind our backs. Ever since our family has become better off, they've been up to all sorts of tricks and trying to take advantage of us. I'm afraid they're here today to have their eyes on Yuzhen again."

"Eat quickly, let's eat! Don't let those people ruin our appetites."

After lunch, each family took their children back to their rooms for private conversations. Mr. Feng and Liu Dawang returned to the main room, where Mr. Feng introduced his other four grandsons to Liu Siyue.

After the cousins ​​exchanged greetings, the Feng family's grandsons went outside.

"Grandma, Grandpa, I'm giving you the tofu recipe now. You should buy all the ingredients listed first. After the Lantern Festival, my older sister and I will come over and teach you."

Liu Siyue wrote down everything she wanted to buy on a piece of paper and handed it to Feng's mother, telling them what she wanted to buy. "Grandma, we don't just sell tofu. This tofu can be made into many products: dried bean curd sticks, tofu skin, tofu pudding, soft tofu, firm tofu, dried tofu, soy milk, stinky tofu, fermented tofu, and many other kinds."

"Once you learn all of these, you won't have to worry about making money."

"April, what are you talking about, making tofu? What's going on?"

"Just listen carefully, I'll tell you later, don't interrupt."

"Go on, April."

Mr. Feng felt ashamed after being scolded, and his expression was rather unpleasant. He sat there without saying a word.

"Get your things ready. After the Lantern Festival, my older sister and I will come and teach you."

"Okay, okay, Grandma, thank you so much."

"Mother, you have already separated the family. My older and younger brothers have prepared New Year's gifts. I haven't been to my younger brothers' homes yet, so I plan to go and visit them and get to know them."

"Okay, Mom will go with you. I was too busy last time to come."

Each of them carried a gift and headed towards Feng Dazhi's house. Villagers kept coming up to ask, "Is this Yuzhen?"

"Yes, ma'am, I am Yuzhen."

"Oh my! I heard from the villagers that your family has become rich, and it's true! Look at your clothes, you're dressed so well, just like the lady of a wealthy family. And you're getting younger and younger."

This life, with no worries about food and drink, is truly nourishing. You are a good person; you're doing well yourself and don't forget to help your family. You are a filial daughter.

After dealing with wave after wave of villagers, Feng Yuzhen finally arrived at the homes of her younger brothers. She looked around the houses, said a few words, put down her things, and left.

When the group returned to the old house, Madam Feng suggested that they go back. "Mother, we should go back. It's a little worrying to leave the children at home."
