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

Liu Siyue let the new house air out for about ten days and cleaned it thoroughly. Then she asked Master Xie to deliver the furniture. Several truckloads of furniture were delivered into the village, and four or five rooms in each house were furnished. The other rooms were left empty for the time being.

With all the furniture prepared, Liu Siyue moved out of her second uncle's house and lived alone. She asked Qingwu to go to the county town to bring back the four servants she had bought and arranged for them to live in her own house.

She stood in the courtyard, arms outstretched, finally feeling free. She had only moved in a few days before Liu Yiyue came. Looking at the rows of brand-new houses, none of them her own, she wondered if these were all for her cousins. She had overestimated her importance in her own sister's heart. Her uncle's family would always be more important than her mother's marriage, and her cousins ​​would always be more important than her sisters.

The door to Liu Dawang's house was open, and she walked straight in. Xiao Tao saw her and immediately came to greet her, "Miss Yiyue, you've arrived."

"Yes, I've come to find my second sister."

"What do you need the master for? The master is in the main room discussing matters with the master, mistress, and young ladies. Please wait here for a moment, and I will go in and inform him."

"No need for all that trouble, I'll just go in directly."

As Liu Yiyue was about to walk inside, Xiao Tao quickly stopped her, "Miss Yiyue, please don't make things difficult for me. Wait here for a while, I'll be back soon."

Liu Yiyue knew the difficulties of being a servant, and besides, Xiao Tao had always taken care of her. In this family, Xiao Tao was the most respectful person to her. "Go ahead, I'll wait here."

"Thank you for your understanding, Miss!" Xiao Tao immediately went inside.

Liu Siyue called her family together today because she had something important to say. "Mother, Second Uncle, I will be living on my own from now on. Everyone will have to take care of their own affairs. Second Uncle has the estate to manage, Mother has to take care of the whole family, and my cousins ​​all have their own things to do. Everyone will be busy."

I'm giving each of you 1000 taels of silver as capital for your ventures. How well you succeed depends on yourselves. Think about what you want to do, and let everyone help you decide.

"Ruyue and Ruxing, you are still young. This money will be entrusted to your mother and second uncle for safekeeping. Are you two willing?"

"Okay, let's leave it to our parents for safekeeping. When we grow up, we'll go out and make our own way in the world, and then we'll ask our parents for it back."

Liu Siyue took out silver notes with a face value of 100 taels each. Madam Feng's eyes were red. "Siyue, are you going to become estranged from your maternal family?"

Look at you, you've moved out, and now you're giving everyone money—that's what dividing the family property is all about!

"Mother, I said I would make sure everyone has a good life. This 1000 taels of silver, no matter what you do, I will only give it to you once and never again. Even if you do nothing, it will be enough for you to live a peaceful and worry-free life."

She placed the silver notes in everyone's hands, and Ruyue and Ruxing quickly handed them to Madam Feng, saying, "Mother, please keep them safe for us."

"I'll leave Ru Xue's here for now, and I'll give it to her directly when she comes back. She has a lot of ideas."

"I've given you the money, so do what you think is best and don't waste your time."

She then handed 1000 taels of silver notes to Madam Feng, saying, "Mother, Second Uncle, this 1000 taels is for you. Keep it safe."

"We don't want April. Your second uncle and I are old. We have enough to eat and drink, a house and land. We don't need money at all. Keep this money for yourself."

"Mother, this is to give you and your second uncle confidence. From now on, I will give you a monthly pension of 10 taels each. You will be responsible for all household expenses from now on. I will also pay the servants' monthly wages, so you don't need to worry about that."

"April, what should your mother say?"

"Mother, you don't need to say anything. We are mother and daughter. When I'm busy, I need your help taking care of the child!"

"I've gotten used to having you all around me. Now that we're apart, I feel empty and restless."

"We're so close, it's practically like living together. It's like visiting each other, or you can hear me if I call out."

As everyone was talking, Xiao Tao announced, "Master, sir and madam, Miss Yiyue has arrived and is at the door."

"What's she doing here?"

"I asked, but Miss January didn't say. She only said she came to see her master."

"Alright, invite her in. I want to see what she's up to today."

Feng and the others quickly put away the silver notes and sat down, all looking towards the door. Liu Yiyue felt a little uncomfortable when she came in and saw so many people.

"Second Uncle, Second Aunt, and all my cousins ​​are here. I've come to see Second Sister about something."

Madam Feng stood up. "You sisters have a good chat in April. We'll head out now."

"Mother, there's nothing you can't listen to."

"If you need anything from me, please speak freely. There's no need to hide anything."

Liu Yiyue was embarrassed. "I, I, I wanted to ask, when you helped me register my household registration, did you use homestead land or farmland?"

"Did you ask this yourself, or did your mother send you to ask it?"

"I asked myself. I want to keep both the house and the land myself."

"Okay, here you go."

But remember this: from today onwards, you are not allowed to step into the end of the village again. If you end up in a dead end, don't say I'm heartless and don't care whether you live or die. You chose this path yourself. You didn't leave yourself any way out, so I'll grant your wish.

"Qingwu, go to my room and get that land deed."

Qingwu ran out and returned a moment later with a land deed. "Master."

Liu Siyue took the land deed. "This is nine acres of dry land, and chili peppers have already been planted on it. Now that you've taken the land deed, our sisterhood is over."

She stood up from the chair and placed the land deed in Liu Yiyue's hand. "I'll call you 'Big Sister' one last time. Take care and think more about yourself."

"Qingwu, give the order: Liu Yiyue is never to set foot at the end of the village again."

"Second sister, why are you doing this to me?"

What did I do wrong? Can't I just want to be with my own mother? You have your own mother but don't acknowledge her, treating your aunt like your own mother. Do you think you're doing the right thing as a child? How is your mother supposed to feel about this?

If you were even the slightest bit kinder to your mother, she would cherish you like a precious treasure, treating you even better than your second aunt.

Liu Siyue burst into laughter, "You're right, I was wrong. I shouldn't have rescued you from that den of wolves."

If you want to be good to your mother, I won't stop you. But if you have any backbone, don't use my things to show filial piety to your mother. What kind of person takes my things? You're just sucking my blood to fulfill your filial duty.

I don't care for that kind of kinship bought with mutual benefits. Get out of here! I never want to see you again.

"Liu Siyue, this is what you owe me. I raised you from childhood, what is this little thing?"

"You don't want to see me, and I don't want to see you. Disobedience and unfilial piety are intolerable according to the laws of nature."

"January, what are you saying? This is your own sister, how can you curse her like that?"

"It's all because of your family that you stirred up trouble, causing us sisters to drift apart and mother and daughter to become estranged."

In April, look at your conscience. Was what you did fair? What did you give your second uncle and aunt? What did you give your cousins? Estates, shops, jewelry, and silver. And what did you give me? A silver hairpin and a gold bracelet. These are not even a fraction of what they received.

"During my stay here, I've felt like an outsider; you're the real family."
