Zhou Xiao then looked at Sanni, "You keep it all. I will be able to make a lot of money in the future, and all my money... I will give it to you too..."
"Who wants your money?" Sanni’s face suddenly turned red. She gave Zhou Xiao a disdainful look and then turned and ran off.
Zhou Xiao scratched his head and hurriedly chased after her.
Yang Ruxin watched their retreating figures with envy. Childhood sweethearts are the most precious, but it’s a pity, she didn’t have it in her last life, and it’s destined not to happen in this one either.
As for Daya’s disappearance by drowning, the people of the Yang Family’s old house reacted in an unexpectedly calm manner.
Yang Dongshi had a strong will to live. Despite Yang Anshi refusing to provide silver for her medicine, she had managed to pull through. Upon hearing of her eldest daughter’s death, her reaction was eerily calm, "Dead is dead, better dead..." But her expression and tone were steeped in despair, "Death spares one from suffering."
Yang Baixiang could only sigh at the sight of his fourth sister-in-law like this.
Yang Peili remained as silent as ever, merely sighing. On the other hand, after taking a few days to recuperate, Yang Anshi had regained some vitality and was laughing while hitting the edge of the kang with a broom: "Good riddance, she was a wicked spirit. Better dead early, saving our family the trouble... Why hasn’t the one who bore her died yet? She should hurry up and get it over with, so as not to sicken the living. What sin has our old Yang family committed to marry one bad omen after another? Oh heavens, open your eyes and take away these harmful spirits..."
Lying in the side room, Yang Dongshi used to feel upset when her mother-in-law scolded her, but now she realized there was no need for such feelings. Why should she die? Clinging to life is better than a good death. She would not die; she wondered what that old woman could do about it.
In another side room, Yang Ruyu looked at Yang Rusong with grievance: "Big brother, I don’t want to stay here anymore..." Not only slaving away daily here, but also being scolded every day. If something didn’t please her, she would even resort to hitting. Baihe had already found an excuse to leave, only leaving her behind to endure this torment.
Yang Rusong sighed, "There’s no extra space at grandfather’s house. If we go there, it will only cause more trouble."
"Then let our parents come back, let them take care of grandma and grandpa..." Yang Ruyu held up her hands that once were delicate and now were scarred, "I can’t take it anymore. If this continues, I’ll break down... I’m not even married yet, big brother. If this goes on, I won’t be able to marry into a good family..." She had thought about winning Xun Hui’s sympathy to enter the main family’s house, but Daya’s death made her realize that her cousin was no longer the same person she used to be. The current Yang Ruxin was formidable. If she really went there, she might end up being harmed at any time. However, her uncle had not contacted her for a long time, and she couldn’t wait any longer. She needed to find her uncle, but she had to find a reason to leave the Yang family and the village first.
Yang Rusong frowned; he didn’t want to continue living like this either, but he genuinely didn’t know what to do. The only solution he could think of was to have the main family come back, but having been beaten by Yang Ruxin for making such a suggestion, he felt he dared not bring it up again. He could only comfort his sister by saying that they just had to wait until the release of the examination results. Once he became a Scholar and had achieved some reputation, he didn’t believe Yang Ruxin would still be so obstinate.
