The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

Uncle Niu drove the ox cart and sent them to the village chief's house before leaving. Mrs. Zhang told the village chief the whole story in detail, and then left the space to the three of them.

The village chief's face was a little old and serious, and his eyes were full of disapproval. Although he felt sorry for the children who had lost their parents at a young age, it was not an excuse. As the saying goes, a gentleman uses words, not hands.

"Boy Chen, you were impulsive this time. The fault was not yours in the first place. If something really happens, it will be hard to explain. If something happens to her, how can your sister save you? Even if you can afford the compensation, how can you take the imperial examination in the future if your reputation is damaged? Wouldn't this hurt your sister's heart?"

Along the way, Lan Luochen held his breath. He admitted that he was wrong. When Lan Wangshu held him in her arms and let herself be beaten by the woman, he knew he was wrong.

After listening to the village chief's words, he realized that paying the money was not the end of the matter, because he, his sister and brother would be talked about, and even if something really big happened, Cangnan Village would also be criticized.

"Grandpa Village Chief, I know I was wrong."

"The village chief's words are still effective. He has been sulking with me all the way." Lan Wangshu sighed softly and talked about buying and selling land to grow wheat.

"The best sunlight in the village is in the large plain to the south of your home. It is top-quality farmland and costs 15 taels of silver per mu."

She calculated it and found that it would cost three taels of gold, which was a bit expensive and not worth buying the land.

"Can I rent it?"

"Your uncle from the Zhao family has worked hard to cultivate the land into a top-grade farm. He is definitely reluctant to rent it out. But you can talk to him about it. If he agrees, just go through the process with me."

The brother and sister said goodbye to the village chief and walked towards home. Along the way, Lan Wangshu didn't say a word or even give him a look. Lan Luochen was scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously behind them, and she laughed in her heart.

She said hello to the two little kids and went into the kitchen to cook. Lan Luochen finally felt that he had a place to put his skills to use. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he found that the fire had already been lit. He kicked the stones floating on the ground in frustration.

"Please sit down. Let's cook the rice." Lan Wangshu bought a lot of seasonings from the system, intending to let the children taste some meat. After thinking about it, he decided that refined lard would be better. Although it was a bit troublesome, it tasted delicious, and a little bit would be enough.

After Lan Luochen finished his work, he watched her slice the pork and throw it directly into the pot.

"Don't you need to add water to make lard?"

"I don't like adding water. This way the oil residue tastes good. You have reflected on this all the way. Where did you go wrong?"

Lan Wangshu's hands kept moving, but his eyes were still fixed on the pot.

"I shouldn't have done that. I caused my sister to be beaten by that woman. I let my sister down."

"Luo Chen, anger and violence will not solve any problems. Let me ask you, if I don't wake up, what will you do? Even if you fail, even if I want to sell you out, you can't hide from the fact that you have killed someone."

She put down the shovel in her hand and slowly sat down on the small stool next to the stove.

Lan Luochen's eyes widened. She was also helpless. She didn't intend to scare him, but if she didn't tell him something serious, he might not learn his lesson. What would she do if something really happened in the future?

The little body squatted on the ground, and tears as big as beans fell from his eyes. The expression in his eyes was so complicated that she couldn't understand it.

"She won't come back, right? Did I kill her? What about you, will you be here forever?"

Lan Luochen's fingers were tightly pinching the corner of her clothes. Lan Wangshu still felt that maybe her words were a little harsh. She was still a child. She gently held his hand and looked at him with gentle eyes.

"This is a hypothesis. If nothing unexpected happens, I will be here forever. I am your biological sister. Don't believe those messed up things. You must think twice before you act."

Lan Luochen hugged her tightly and rested his head on her shoulder.

"Sister said, Luo Chen listened to everything, I was wrong."

Lan Luochen hugged Lan Wangshu. The girl's bones felt a little uncomfortable. He sniffed. It was his first time acting like a spoiled child and he was not very experienced.

"Don't panic when things happen, especially in a verbal dispute like this. She can only gain the upper hand verbally. Look, isn't she being beaten now?"

"But what if she didn't steal the money? Should she be scolded for nothing?"

He felt a little aggrieved. The words were so harsh that he really couldn't help it.

"Of course not. I'll teach you these things later."

Lan Wangshu almost wanted to say that she had intended to annoy the woman, but after thinking it over, she stopped talking, fearing that she would teach her children the wrong way. Her vengeful character was the product of an unhappy childhood, and because of this, she didn't want her brothers to be like her.

Lan Wangshu's mouth was watering as she looked at the lard residue. She really loved this crispy and fragrant thing.

"I won't be so impulsive in the future. I will think about my sister before doing anything."

Lan Luochen began to express his determination quietly beside her. She looked at the little brat speechlessly. Is this the point? Well, at least he thought about the consequences.

"Use your brain instead of your hands. Violence is for self-protection, not for hurting others."

"Everything my sister said is right."

Lan Wangshu smiled. This little black sesame dumpling has the potential to be a sister-con. He didn't know how the original owner got along with him and was willing to sell him.

Lan Luochen discovered that his elder sister now really liked the cute look of a child acting like a spoiled child, so he followed the example of his younger brothers, looking at her with admiring eyes and leaning towards Lan Wangshu. There was a special smell on her body, which was hard to describe, but it made him feel safe and warm when he smelled it.

"Okay, go scald the dishes with hot water and get ready to wash your hands and eat."

She made a simple meal of rice mixed with lard, a fried egg for each person, and a small plate of cold wild vegetables. She used modern seasonings, and several people ate it up voraciously, even eating the wild vegetables.

"It's delicious, sister. I wish I could eat food like this every day in the future."

"Yes, when the second brother grows up, I will make you and your sister fat and plump."

Lan Wangshu looked at the three innocent smiling faces and her heart was filled with warmth. Raising children is a long and arduous task, but she also felt it was worth it. This time, she wanted to give these three younger brothers an umbrella called home.

Lying on the wooden bed at night, she suddenly knew nothing and fell asleep. She did not notice Lan Luochen secretly lifting the corner of the curtain, looking at her deeply with his peach blossom eyes, and slowly falling asleep.

Early in the morning, someone's chicken was crowing. Lan Wangshu frowned, got up from the bed, put on her clothes, and sat in the quilt, sulking. Damn her bad temper when she woke up.
