Ning Hailan was dragged away by Liu Shufang. She looked back in panic. That cautious look made Hai Tao's heart hurt.

"Hailan, if you can't do it, go home with your big brother!"

His voice was filled with heartache as he looked guiltily at his sister.

"This won't do, what do I do with the construction like that?"

Ning Hailan rejected him without any hesitation. They had a good relationship. Their wedding was a sweet time, so how could she be willing to part with them?

"Sister-in-law, you have to persuade my brother to split his family. I will work hard to earn money and buy a house in the city to take you away."

Liu Shufang looked at her sister-in-law. She was too thin, and felt weak like Lin Daiyu. Zhao Yumei only dared to bully her based on her good character.

"Ai, your elder brother …"

Ning Hailan shook her head helplessly. She understood her husband's personality. He was very filial, and felt that the branch family was a disgrace, she would rather die than agree.

"I advise him."

Liu Shufang shook her head helplessly. Of the two, one was foolish, one was weak. It would be difficult for them to learn how to resist.

The hillside was a little far from his house, so it would take him half an hour to walk. In order to save time, Liu Jian didn't even go home to eat lunch, and instead brought some dry rations to eat.

At first, Ning Hailan felt sorry for her husband and gave her a meal. However, she was scolded by her mother-in-law, so she didn't dare to come and give her a meal. That was why she didn't dare to come out today.

However, Liu Shufang and Ning Haitao did not know about it.

On a distant hillside, a bare-chested man was waving a hoe and sweating profusely under the sun.

When Liu Shufang saw him limp, she knew it was her big brother. At this moment, his eyes were moist.

The stepmother's son lay on the kang waiting for someone to serve him. Her eldest brother would sweat in the hot sun.

"Big brother."

She wiped her face, not allowing her elder brother to see her sad appearance. She revealed a sweet, yet spoiled smile.

"Shufang, you're here."

When Liu Jian heard his sister's voice, he happily raised his head. When he saw his wife following behind him, he revealed a simple and honest smile.

"Big brother, come here and rest for a while. I've brought you something delicious."

Liu Shufang called her big brother over to the shade of the tree. It was an ancient tree, and not a single strong man could carry it over. The dense foliage was a good place to enjoy the cool weather during the summer.

"What's good?"

Liu Jian did not pretend in front of his sister. He was really hungry. His stepmother did not want him to bring any more rations, so he was only allowed to bring a nest every day.

It's hard work, and there's only enough to fill the gaps in your teeth.

"Look, go wash up first, go get some hot air. At noon, you're still working foolishly, yet you don't know how to sleep while lying down under a big tree?"

Liu Shufang looked at her brother with a pained expression. After a few days of not seeing him, he was as black as a piece of charcoal and seemed to have lost even more weight.

Her bare chest and clear ribs almost made her cry again.

"Alright, Hai Feng, you're here too."

Liu Jian smiled innocently, then looked towards his brother-in-law, greeting him.

"Yes, I'm here, big brother."

Ning Haitao felt bad seeing his brother-in-law like this. He felt sorry for him, but he also hated him at the same time.

"I'll follow you."

Harland was the most distressed one. He looked at his husband, who was covered in sweat. The sweat was all over his body. His face was tanned and it hurt. Tears welled up in his eyes.

"I'll go by myself. Your big brother just arrived, let's chat for a while."

Liu Jian still doted on his wife a lot, so when he saw her red eyes, he let out a soft voice to talk to her.

His concern was obvious. Although it was not as obvious as Ning Haitao's, it still seemed like he had deep feelings for him.

"Big bro, let sister-in-law wipe your back!" I'm covered in sweat. "

Liu Shufang didn't want to disturb her husband and wife's time alone. They were living in a room outside of the house, and their married life must have been very depressing.

Just like that, Liu Jian and Hai Lan went to the river bank to wash their hands and wash their bodies. Liu Shufang placed the basin full of Hashima on the ground. Even if there were no main course food, the fried Hashima would still be full.

After a while, Liu Jian came back from washing up. Seeing the full basin of Hashima, he was not in a hurry to eat. Instead, he frowned.

"Sister, you didn't leave it for daddy?"

"Aiya! Could he not keep it? This is for you. Hurry up and eat it.

Liu Shufang looked at her big brother with a funny expression. The three people at home didn't pity him, but her big brother was very kind. He would immediately think of her after he ate something good.

"Oh, that's alright. You should eat it too, Harland."

After hearing that there was more at home, Liu Jian sat cross-legged on the floor and first gave one to his wife, then looked towards his sister and her husband.

"Hai Tao, sit down and eat, Shufang!"

"We've already eaten at home, hurry up and eat!"

Liu Shufang sat beside her big brother, directly grabbing her mother and bringing her to his mouth.

"He really ate it?"

Liu Jian asked again. The two of them were eating while Shufang and her brother-in-law watched on uneasily.

"Eat!" We eat every day at home. "

Liu Shufang had no choice but to lie.

"Eat!" "Big brother, we just finished eating at home."

Ning Haitao sat beside his sister, watching her eat carefully and slowly, a rare sight.

This made her feel even worse, grabbing one and stuffing it into her hand.

"Since I've already eaten, I'll throw the rest away."

Ning Haitao heard the domineering words but was actually concerned about them. He saw that his sister was reluctant to eat them and could only threaten her.

"That's right, throw it away if it's left."

Liu Shufang agreed with her husband. She was afraid that her brother wouldn't be willing to eat it, so she even left it for the vicious mother and son.

As for her father, she had already left a bowl for him to eat, but he did not do anything.

Furthermore, she had completely given up on this father of hers. He was too useless.

Just like this, the Hashish Leech entered the stomachs of the two. This was the first time it tasted so good, and also the first time it was so full.

"Eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, drink some water to relieve your boredom."

Liu Shufang quickly passed a gourd to him. The Hash was fried with meat oil. It would freeze if it got cold. The oil was too thick.

"Shufang, this thing tastes really good. Where did you catch it?"

Liu Jian asked his sister as he took the gourd.

"We did not have it in our village. It was caught in a puddle in the mountains behind us. If you like it, we can bring it back next time I explode."

Liu Shufang laughed. Could it be that Big Brother also wants to catch him and eat him?

"That's a pity. I think father definitely likes this thing to eat. He likes to drink alcohol, and this is the best dish for drinking wine."

Liu Jian shook his head regretfully. He was still thinking of giving some to his father to eat every day!

When Liu Shufang heard that the first person he thought of was his father, she felt a wave of sadness wash over her.
