"Second sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for so long. Your skin has gotten better and better. I feel like I'm not as good as you."

Meiyu touched her face and thought to herself, how can your dry, yellow-faced woman compare with me? But she said things against her will. But which woman doesn't like others to praise her good skin?

The second son's wife was very happy when she saw her younger sister-in-law's fair and delicate skin. Recently, she bought a box of facial cream from a street vendor without the old lady's knowledge. She spent a penny on it and felt very sorry for it, but it was worth the money as it was effective.

"No way, I'm definitely not as good as you."

Meiyu thought she had some self-awareness, and seeing that the atmosphere was almost set, she explained her purpose.

"Second sister-in-law, you don't know, the last time I brought back five kilograms of grain, my mother-in-law found fault with me every day."

"The chickens were not fed on time, the bowls were not cleaned, and the water was not fetched in time. This tortured me for several days. I really couldn't stand it anymore, so I came here to borrow some more food."

When the second son's wife heard this, she became alert. Although she felt sympathetic, she absolutely could not lend the grain.

Meiyu wanted to continue talking, but the second son's wife interrupted her and said, "Aunt, I've been washing clothes for the whole morning and I'm a little tired. My waist feels like it's going to break. I have to go in and rest for a while."

Without even hanging up the clothes, he went into the house and closed the door.

Meiyu was so anxious that she stamped her feet, but the old lady ignored her.

At this time, my brothers should be in the fields. Yes, after all, my sister-in-law is a layer away from me, so I should go directly to my brothers.

Meiyu thought about it and walked towards the field. She saw her two brothers sitting on the ridge from a distance. "Big brother~ Second brother~"

Niu Laoer wondered if he was too tired recently and was hallucinating. "Brother, I seem to hear Meiyu's voice."

Boss Niu sneered and turned his head. "Why, you miss her just a few days after we took away five kilograms of food? I'm afraid of her now, so don't mention her to me."

"Eldest brother~Second brother~"

Boss Niu also heard Meiyu's voice and quickly stood up and looked around.

He forced a smile on his face, "Girl, here I come~"

Niu Laoer didn't expect that this person really came. He patted the dirt off his body and nodded at Meiyu.

The boss took a few steps forward and said, "Sister, what brings you here today~"

Niu Meiyu coquettishly hit her brother's hand and said, "Why, you are not happy to see me~"

Niu Lao Da muttered to himself, he knew it, but this person was asking without knowing the answer, who would be happy to see you? You came to borrow food as soon as you came, and this time you couldn't lend it to me no matter what. There was not enough food for several children at home, so I took the food back to subsidize my husband's family, and let the whole family eat and dress well, and I didn't care about the life and death of my parents' family.

"No way, why would you be unhappy? Shouldn't you be visiting your mother? Why are you in the fields?"

Boss Niu felt puzzled. Logically speaking, his sister, who took good care of her skin, would never come to the fields at this time under the hot sun.

Niu Laoer has already realized that his sister came here because she didn't get any benefits from their mother, but this time she will definitely not lend the money out.

The two brothers looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

"I've already visited my mother. I miss my two brothers."

All Niu Meiyu was thinking about was how to bring up the subject.

But Niu Laoda spoke first, "Sister, you are not here to borrow food again, are you? Mom didn't agree just now, so you came to us."

Niu Meiyu's face changed again and again, turning the color of liver. She just said it directly, secretly pinched her thigh, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Brother, I am indeed here to borrow food. My family is almost out of money. My mother-in-law scolds me all day long. I can't even borrow some food. The rice jar at home is empty. I can only come here to borrow food with a flattering face."

The two brothers are very familiar with their sister's routine, and they don't look like hungry people at all.

Boss Niu sighed, lowered his head and squatted down, "Sister, it's not that I don't want to lend you money, but I really can't. Although we have divided the family, the food is all with mother, and we can't take any of it out."

Seeing this, Niu Lao Er quickly gave up Lao San and said, "Sister, why don't you go ask your third brother? I've heard that they have meat to eat these days. Maybe you can borrow some from them."

Niu Meiyu was also surprised. Her mother-in-law's family only eats meat once a month. Now that meat is so expensive, they are willing to spend it. This means that they may be able to borrow grain.

Since both brothers have said so, there is no need to bother with them anymore as it will not produce any result. It is better to go find the third brother instead. It was the third brother who delivered the food to the car last time.

After saying goodbye to her two brothers, Niu Meiyu walked towards her third brother's house. When she reached a place where she could no longer see the two brothers, she spat fiercely.

Boss Niu had never realized that his younger brother was so smart. As they watched their sister leave, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Niu Meiyu murmured in her heart, usually her third brother was the most active in farming, why didn’t she see him today?

After thinking this for a while, he met him halfway, ran up to him, called out "Third Brother", and wanted to help take the bucket from the other's hand.

When the third child heard its younger sister's voice, he naturally gave the bucket to her.

Niu Meiyu was extremely unwilling to do so, but she didn't bother to be polite. The bucket was quite heavy and it was difficult to carry it.

"Third brother, what are you doing?"

Niu Laosan didn't intend to hide it. After all, many people knew that he was making tofu, and if anyone wanted to find out, they could find out.

"I'm going to town to deliver tofu."

Niu Meiyu thought for a moment and realized that since he was doing business, it was no wonder that he could eat meat. If he could borrow some money, it should be possible.

"Tofu, I've never heard of it before. It must be something new."

There was a hint of subtle pride in Niu Lao San's tone, "Well, this is a new method that my Ni'er learned."

Niu Meiyu thought that since her brother's family could sell tofu, she could also sell tofu after learning it. When she made some money, her mother-in-law would definitely look at her with respect.

"Brother, can you tell me how to do this?"

The third brother smiled and said, "Sister, this..."

Ni'er was walking on the road, thinking about what she had just learned. When she looked up, she saw her father and aunt walking towards her from the other side.

She comes to borrow food again. This time, I can't let my father give it to her. If I borrow food, I can borrow money. I have to think of a way.

I walked over quickly and said, "Dad~Aunt~"

Meiyu thought Ni'er had gone out to play. "You are such a grown-up girl, and you don't even know how to pick some wild vegetables. Your mother is pregnant, so it's not convenient for her to work."

The third brother was furious when he heard this. Just as he was about to retort, Ni'er held his hand.

"Dad, let me help you carry it." Ni'er shook her head at her father again.

The third son understood what his daughter meant. It seemed that her daughter didn't want others to know that she was studying medicine with Doctor Zhao, so he didn't mention it.
