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

Wang Zhilan and Yun Chenxin went to the main room to say goodbye to Madam Feng. "Aunt, Madam, it's getting late, so we'll be heading back now."

"Alright, I won't keep you any longer. You can come and stay at my house once the house is repaired."

"Thank you, Auntie. We will definitely come."

Liu Siyue watched as Wang Zhilan and Yun Chenxin boarded the carriage, then Qingye walked over and whispered, "Master, the residence in the county town is no longer under surveillance, but there are still people secretly inquiring about the death of the Four Young Masters of Lingshui in the city."

"Okay, let's go quickly, and drive carefully."

"Yes, Master."

Qingye drove the carriage out of the village. Yun Chenxin lifted the carriage curtain and looked in the direction of Baini Bay. That was her humiliating past and her nightmare. She just didn't know how those two children were doing now.

As the carriage drove further and further away, she lowered the curtain. "Sister Yun, what are you looking at? You seem so lost in thought."

"I didn't see anything, just enjoyed the tranquility of the countryside."

The two stopped talking, closed their eyes to rest, and listened to the clatter of hooves as they continued on their way.

Liu Siyue returned to the main room, "Mother, Grandma."

"Both of your sisters have left?"

"I'm gone."

"April, your two sisters are really generous, giving your younger sisters red envelopes containing ten taels of silver."

Grandma was truly amazed. For wealthy people, money means nothing; they're incredibly generous. Ten taels of silver are probably nothing more than a single copper coin to them.

"Grandma, you only think 10 taels of silver is a lot because you don't have any money now. If you had so much money that you couldn't spend it all and couldn't even count it, would you still think 10 taels of silver is a lot of money?"

Isn't 10 taels of silver the same as one coin?

So, the amount of money depends on who holds it and how many assets you have. It's not absolute; it's relative.

"April, I was just telling your mother that your grandfather and I are going back tomorrow. You're both so busy, we can't help you at all, and we're just causing you trouble."

"Someone's fixing the house, so we don't have to do any work. You can stay home and chat with Mom, or go for a walk around the village!"

"No need. I'm worried about your aunts staying at home. We'll arrange some work for them when we get back."

"Alright then, since Grandma wants to go home, I'll have Qingwu take you back tomorrow."

Liu Siyue returned to her room, picked up the two red envelopes on the table, opened them and found that they contained 100 taels of silver notes. Her daughter had received another New Year's money, so she would save it for her.

The next day, after breakfast, Feng's mother said she had to go back, and Qingwu drove the carriage to send them off.

Liu Siyue called Ruxue to the main room. "Mother, Second Uncle, I'm going to the county town tomorrow. I might not be back for several days. I'll be taking Yao'er with me."

"Did you spend the Lantern Festival at home? Besides, you're getting married in August."

"I know I'll be back for the Lantern Festival."

Cousin, don't forget the tofu the Bai family wants.

"I understand, I won't forget."

"Ru Xue, haven't you always wanted to do business? This time I want to take you to the county town so you can train at Sister Wang's shop."

Are you willing to go?

"Okay, okay! I'm willing to go."

Upon hearing this, Madam Feng became anxious. "April, you mean you want Ruxue to stay in the county town alone?"

"Yes, let her get some exercise. People will never grow up if they don't go out and explore. They can only grow up quickly by experiencing more things."

"No, no, we can't leave her alone in the county town. There are so many bad people there. What if a few more lecherous men come along?"

"Ru Xue, are you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid. Does being afraid mean I'll never leave the house again?"

Besides, aren't those people all dead? What's there to be afraid of?

"Mother, look, Ruxue herself isn't afraid. There aren't that many lecherous men in the county town. She's in the shop all day and goes home early in the evening. Qingye picks her up and drops her off. What could possibly happen to her?"

"They've all been with me since they were little, and if one of them leaves, I'll feel so empty inside."

"Hmm, does that mean you'll go with them when they get married in the future?"

Or are you suggesting that you find sons-in-law to live with them all?

"No matter which of you sisters is not home, I always feel uneasy."

"Mom, look, we sisters have all grown up. We can't let you protect us forever."

Besides, we've been practicing dance with Qingwu all along. I can beat up one or two hooligans. When I go to the county town, I'll practice with Qingye. No one will dare to bully me when I go out.

Mom, look at my strength now, I dare say even Dad can't beat me.

"Dad, do you want to give it a try? Let Mom see?"

"My old arms and legs are so weak, what if you accidentally hurt me?"

"If you want to find someone to fight for your mother, go find your uncle."

"Mother, I'm going to find Uncle right now."

"What kind of uncle are you looking for, you crazy girl! You're so unreliable. You learned so many rules from Qingling, have you forgotten them all?"

"Mother, I just wanted to put your mind at ease, didn't I?"

"Bring Qingwu in; I need to ask her something."

"Qingwu, come in. Madam has something to ask you."

"Madam, you wanted to see me?"

"Qingwu, let me ask you, how well are those sisters learning from you, who are always gesturing and sparring with you? Especially Ruxue."

"They all studied very hard, and Ru Xue made rapid progress."

"If Ruxue goes out, won't she be bullied by those lecherous men?"

"It's hard to say. If I were to encounter someone with skills like mine, even 20 people like Ru Xue wouldn't be a match for me. If I were to encounter an ordinary man, taking down three or five wouldn't be a problem."

"Third Uncle, Fifth Uncle, and Sixth Uncle—these three might not be a match for Ru Xue."

"Ru Xue, are you that strong now? You can beat up three of your uncles?"

"Of course. Don't underestimate me just because I'm a woman. I'm not an ordinary woman anymore."

If a thief comes, I can catch him too.

"As long as you can protect yourself, that's all I ask for. I just hope you're safe and sound."

"Mother, don't worry, I can definitely protect myself. I will go there unharmed and come back unharmed."

"Mother, don't worry. Ruxue only went to the shop for two months to train before she came back. It was just to teach her some interpersonal skills and business management."

After the wedding in August, I will take my cousin to town to look at shops; her restaurant will be opening soon.

The shop's renovation and the custom-made tables and chairs all take time.

"If that's the case, then in the future, won't it just be me, your second uncle, and the two younger ones left in the family?"

"My cousin's restaurant has opened, and everyone is definitely going to help out!"

Mother, don't worry too much. The restaurant is in town, so it's very convenient to come and go.

"If our family opens a restaurant, won't it steal business from others? And won't they come looking for trouble?"

"Mother, doing business is all about ability; there's no such thing as stealing from someone else."

There are so many restaurants in the county town, and they compete with each other, as well as secretly vying for dominance. Most of them attract customers by improving the quality of their dishes, developing new dishes, and enhancing their service.

Those who try to compete through underhanded means generally don't end up well.

"I'm just worried. You're all girls, and it's inconvenient for you to be out in public. What if you get targeted by bad people?"

"We'll meet force with force, and if the bad guys dare to make a move, we'll counter it with our own moves and finally defeat them with the last strike."

Madam Feng looked distressed; she was extremely worried. Liu Dawang, on the other hand, blamed himself for being useless.

"Mother, Second Uncle, please stop looking so bitter and resentful. You should believe in your daughter."
