Su Xiaoruan's eyes reddened, not because she was moved by the disgusting words, but purely out of anger.
In her past life, this man always used marriage as a trick to fool her; reborn, how could she fall for this scumbag man's trick again?
"Ruan Bao, you need to think clearly. The Yu Family is truly not a good match for marriage. You are still young; wait a few more years, and Grandma will find you someone better."
Grandma Su was genuinely scared!
Last time, Yu Zhansong's family came to find Su Xiaoruan to break off the engagement over a small matter. In the end, Su Xiaoruan cried and made a fuss, and Grandma Su ended up giving Yu Zhansong ten yuan for living expenses to settle the matter.
Now that Yu Zhansong was using the same trick again, Grandma Su was naturally frightened.
"Grandma, I have thought it through. I won't be fooled by them again."
As she spoke, Su Xiaoruan took a deep breath and used almost all the strength of this body: "Yu Zhansong, your younger sister harmed me, you saw death and did not save, and your mother and grandmother came to our door to humiliate our whole family. Our Su Family cannot afford this marriage; let's break it off early!"
Yu Zhansong was startled; he truly hadn't expected Su Xiaoruan to be so resolute.
Seeing this, Granny Yu knew nothing good would come of staying, so she simply grabbed her eldest grandson and started walking back, muttering as she went.
"It's just a childish tantrum; why break off the engagement over such a small thing? Come on, let's go home first. We can talk again when Soft Girl calms down."
As if afraid of being stopped again, Granny Yu walked incredibly fast!
Seeing this, Su Guoan didn't say much more; breaking off an engagement wasn't something that could be done on a whim.
"What are you all still crowding around here for? If you don't go to work, are you hoping to have your Work Points deducted?"
With Su Guoan's shout, everyone quickly dispersed.
Su Xiaoruan currently felt weak all over, limp and listless.
"Ruan Bao, you must think carefully about this marriage. Honestly, that Yu Family is not a good family at all. Your Grandma wouldn't harm you; listen to her more."
Su Xiaoruan nodded: "I understand, thank you, Uncle."
Su Guoan left, satisfied, hoping this time his niece would truly take his words to heart.
Su Xiaoruan was helped into the house. After drinking half a bowl of hot water, she felt much better, though she still lacked strength.
"Ruan Bao, you rest for a while. Your father and I are going to go to work."
"Mm, Mother, you two go ahead. It's nothing serious with me; I just need to lie down for a bit."
Su Jianye and Zhao Hongmei left for work together, leaving only her and Grandma Su at home.
Grandma Su came in halfway through to feel her forehead. Seeing she didn't have a fever, she turned and went to the Courtyard to feed the chickens and pigs.
Finally quiet, Su Xiaoruan relaxed completely and fell into a deep sleep.
In a daze, she felt like she had returned to the Supermarket under her name from her past life.
This was the Supermarket she had built with a lifetime of effort, and she still had quite a few loans outstanding. Who would have thought she would return to age twelve after just one sleep?
Su Xiaoruan clearly remembered that life was truly difficult during these years; every household was struggling to get enough to eat.
Su Xiaoruan casually grabbed a bottle of mineral water and drank it. Since it was a dream, of course, she had to eat something good.
The Supermarket lacked nothing in terms of food; it had everything.
After looking around, Su Xiaoruan ate a self-heating hot pot.
Spicy and hot—it was truly satisfying!
After eating, Su Xiaoruan sat cross-legged on the floor, pondering how this feeling of eating was so real.
And the feeling of a full stomach was also quite real. Could it be that she was trapped in a nightmare?
Thinking this, Su Xiaoruan became anxious again.
She was afraid she would become deeply immersed in this beautiful dream and be unable to return.
This anxiety brought out a sweat all over her body.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself still lying on the kang.
Still that small, shabby kang.
Su Xiaoruan turned her head and saw the familiar kang quilt, making her wonder if her dream had been too realistic.
She touched her stomach; sure enough, it was slightly full.
Something flashed through Su Xiaoruan's mind, and she sat up abruptly.
She felt something on the corner of her mouth and raised her hand to wipe it away.
Ah!
It was a small piece of chili pepper skin!
Wasn't this from the Spicy Fragrance hot pot she had eaten?
So, she had actually eaten the self-heating hot pot just now?
Su Xiaoruan's eyes darted around. Could it be that she had acquired a portable Space?
Thinking of the bizarre novels and TV shows she had seen online in her previous life, Su Xiaoruan closed her eyes and silently thought: Space!
Then she opened her eyes to look at her surroundings.
Good, she was still sitting on her small, shabby kang.
She silently thought again: Supermarket!
Still no effect.
Su Xiaoruan breathed a sigh of relief and silently thought: Go in!
When she opened her eyes again, she was faced with a dazzling array of various goods.
So, she had truly entered this Supermarket again?
Su Xiaoruan felt her heart pounding rapidly. Her first reaction was to rush to the checkout counter.
Because she clearly remembered that due to preparing for the New Year Goods festival, she had specifically posted a Meeting notice at the checkout counter the night before.
When she rushed to Checkout Counter Number One, sure enough, she saw that familiar Meeting notice, and the date displayed on it was indeed the time she had issued it in her past life.
So, this Supermarket was the one she had successfully opened in her previous life?
What kind of miraculous encounter was this!
Once she confirmed that this Supermarket truly belonged to her, she felt relieved and boldly began wandering around.
The main reason was to test whether she could take out all the Things inside.
After confirming that, she thought about whether she could take them outside.
She picked up a case of Milk in her hand and then silently thought: Go out.
Indeed, she returned to her small, shabby kang again, still holding a case of Milk in her hand.
This was wonderful!
Su Xiaoruan was so excited she almost cried out.
As long as the Things inside could be taken out, that was enough.
This way, at least her whole family wouldn't have to starve and suffer.
She thought about how she had been deceived by Yu Zhansong in her past life, and how her relatives had all been dragged down by her—some died from illness, others from accidents; in short, things had been extremely unlucky.
By the time she truly achieved success, there wasn't a single blood relative left by her side.
What it meant to be utterly alone, she had experienced thoroughly in her past life!
In this life, no matter what, she couldn't let her family walk the old path again.
As long as she was alive, she absolutely had to ensure her relatives were well.
With renewed motivation, Su Xiaoruan started thinking about how to bring out the good Things from inside without arousing suspicion.
There were quite a few people in the family. Besides Grandma and her parents, she had three older Brothers above her, and they all treated her incredibly well.
Hiding things from them would probably be impossible.
"Ruan Bao, are you awake? At Noon, Grandma will steam you an egg custard. Is there anything else you want to eat?"
