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

After a long day of hard work, Liu Siyue returned home in the dark and saw Liu Yiyue standing at the door. "Siyue, Second Uncle, you're back."

"January is here, why don't you come inside and sit and wait? If you have something to say, let's talk inside. It's getting dark and a bit chilly."

"Understood, Second Uncle."

After Liu Dawang finished speaking, he went inside, leaving the two sisters alone. He could tell that Siyue didn't want to talk to her older sister, and she wouldn't interfere in their affairs.

"What brings you here?"

"In April, I want to have a serious talk with you. We're sisters, we can't be treated worse than strangers! Do you still remember what you said back in Nanshiling? You said you'd take care of me for the rest of your life."

"My older sister probably won't forget what you said. You said you didn't have such heartless parents, that you wouldn't associate with them, and that you had nothing to do with them anymore. So what are you now?"

You and your parents, grandparents are as close as family, so just live your lives properly. Why are you coming to me for help?

"In April, I didn't know the actual situation at home. My father lost a leg and was very depressed. The burden of the whole family fell on my mother's shoulders. My mother's life was really hard. How could we, as her children, just stand by and watch our parents suffer without doing anything?"

"So what do you want to say? If it's about the old house, then there's no need to talk about it; I don't want to hear it."

With tears in her eyes, Liu Yiyue said, "April, you know, the old house has a lot of land, but we don't have any strong laborers to cultivate it. Everyone else in the village has almost finished cultivating their land, but ours hasn't been touched yet."

"Just think of it as feeling sorry for your older sister; send someone to finish plowing that little patch of land in two days."

Whether they cultivate their land or not is none of my business. If you're so eager to get involved, then do it based on your own abilities. Don't try to use our sisterly bond to blackmail me. I won't fall for that.

"April, Mother is really not what you think. During the time I was at home, she was very good to me and often asked about you. She said that the quarrel between mother and daughter was not what she wanted, and she had her own reasons."

Mom said she was wrong and hopes you can forgive her. She also hopes that we brothers and sisters can help each other and that our family can be close and loving.

My eldest sister also hopes that one day, we sisters can sit together and chat, just like at my second uncle's house.

Listen to your older sister's advice, let go of the hatred in your heart, and let's start over.

Liu Siyue burst into laughter after hearing this, "Are you done?"

"You can leave after you've said that? That's really annoying. Let me tell you, no matter how much you talk, I won't let the people from the old house take advantage of me."

My life has started anew, but it has nothing to do with them.

"In April, if you don't want to send anyone to help plow the fields at home, could you lend me an ox? It's not too much to ask, is it?"

"Your request is unreasonable. My cow is tired and doesn't have time!"

"April, you can't be so selfish and let the family delay spring planting. Do you want your whole family to starve to death?"

Even if my older sister begs you, please lend me the cow, even if you feel sorry for her.

"That's your own fault. I'd rather feel sorry for my cow than for you. Their life or death is none of my business. Whether the land is planted or not is up to me."

I'll say it one last time: don't come to the end of the village again. Even if you do, I won't see you. Don't make a fool of yourself. If I acknowledge you, you're my older sister; if I don't, you're nothing to me.

I can support my older sister for life, but those who don't go back to their retirement homes shouldn't try to leech off me. I'm not their blood bag.

"April, I'm your older sister. How could you say such hurtful things? My heart is aching. My little sister, whom I've raised since she was a baby, is treating me like this."

"Alright, there's no point in saying more, let's go."

Liu Siyue went back and closed the door behind her, leaving Liu Yiyue alone in the dark crying. What did she do wrong? Was it wrong for her to be filial to her parents?

The workers on the construction site, hearing Liu Yiyue's cries, whispered among themselves. Some said Liu Yiyue was filial, some said she was foolish, and others said Liu Siyue was too cruel, saying that no children in the world treat their own parents like that.

Liu Siyue didn't care what these people were saying. She just did what she was supposed to do. Once the wall at the end of the village was built, no one would be able to come in and disturb her anymore.

Liu Yiyue cried outside for a long time. She thought that Siyue would come out to comfort her and agree to her request, but she didn't wait for her and had to leave. When she returned to the old house, she was scolded again. She felt extremely wronged. She couldn't please anyone anywhere. What was she trying to achieve?

The next morning, Liu Yiyue went to find Bayue. "Big sister, didn't you sleep well last night? Why are your eyes so red and swollen? Come in quickly, let's talk inside."

When Bai's mother saw Liu Yiyue, she greeted her with a smile, "Her eldest sister is here, August. Take good care of your eldest sister. Mother is going to the fields."

"Okay, Mom, come back soon."

"Big sister, what happened?"

"In August, no one is plowing the fields at home. Your fields have already been plowed. Could you go and help plow the fields? If you are late, the farming season will be missed."

"Eldest sister, our land was plowed by second sister and second uncle. My husband went to help second sister and second uncle. My mother-in-law and father-in-law are busy with their own land and can't really help. Eldest sister, don't worry so much. Your health is the most important thing."

"August, now that you're doing well, how can you neglect your family?"

"Big sister, how am I supposed to manage this? I'm a married woman, and it's not like there aren't men in my family. Uncle San is Grandpa's biological son, right? Why don't you go find Uncle San?"

"Grandpa has already spoken to Third Uncle, but Third Uncle and Third Aunt are both uninterested."

"Even her own son doesn't care, how can I, his granddaughter, be expected to? Sister, I also need to think about my own family, don't I?"

"In August, you got married, and you've become a completely different person. The things you say are just as selfish as your second sister's."

"My dear elder sister, your selflessness is finally enough, isn't it?"

The old house is a nightmare for me. Out of filial piety and social obligation, I will not skimp on the New Year's gifts, but I will not give anything else. My older sister is willing to go to the old house to suffer, and I can only advise her against it, but it is none of my business.

"If one day, my eldest sister is truly exhausted and can't hold on any longer, come to me. I will take care of you, and my second sister will take care of you too. Even if we don't eat, we won't let you go hungry."

When Liu Yiyue heard her younger sister say this, she didn't know what else to say. The reprimand stuck in her throat just wouldn't come out.

On the way home, I ran into Ma Qiao'er. "Yiyue, where have you been? Look at you, you've only been back for a short time and you've already changed. It's not that your aunt is criticizing you, but you're a bit ungrateful. You're living a good life but insist on going into a den of wolves. Don't let your little bit of filial piety ruin you."

Think about how you got back to the village. Your second uncle and April found you and brought you back, not so that you could go from one wolf den to another. They can't see your filial piety at all.

I'm leaving. Take care of yourself.

"Third Aunt, could Third Uncle help us till the ground around the old house?"

"I'm telling you, are you out of your mind? We've already refused your grandpa, and you think you have more influence than him! If you can do it, then do it; if you can't, then quit. There are so many old people sitting at home, and you, a woman, have to come out and beg for help. You're really something else."

When Liu Yiyue returned home, everyone could tell from her expression that things had not gone well. "Grandpa, Dad, I asked Bayue, but his family is busy too. I really can't think of a solution."

"What are they busy with? They just said they didn't want to help their families. Go and tell August to go to the end of the village to borrow an ox. Once we have the ox, I'll have your third uncle plow the fields."

"Grandpa, there's no use in me going. You should go by yourself."

"You're useless, boss. That's your daughter. Go by yourself."
