Why did you provoke me?

From the moment she learned about this, Yu Meng finally developed a little interest in this world.

Here, she seemed to be special too. She could see creatures with two skins. Like the fish in the water tank, the big tree in her yard, and the ants crawling on the ground.

Although she also wanted the family's approval and to be treated gently, she didn't go too far. She now understood the principle of moderation.

When you act a little different, people can still accept it. But when you act too different, you will become a monster in other people's eyes, just like in your previous life.

Therefore, Yu Meng, who has been given a new lease on life, hides some of her abilities, and then hides even more.

When my parents brought my eldest sister back from town, the news that she could earn five income streams spread throughout the village.

Some were envious, some were jealous, and some were making sarcastic remarks.

At the same time, Xia Jie, who was already able to walk slowly at home, also heard the news.

But this time, she was unusually calm. She didn't get angry, didn't rage, and didn't hurl insults. She sat on a small stool in the yard, her hand slowly touching her leg. The bones there were deformed, and there was a dull ache.

The younger brother was still making a ruckus in the yard, but this time, he didn't go near Sister Xia. He vaguely knew that his sister's last hospitalization was because of him. He was a little afraid of his sister now.

Yu Meng looked at her eldest sister with curiosity. She had heard that during the test, only her eldest sister had five lines in her mind, which made her quite the star.

Yu Meng sat there quietly. She knew she didn't need to ask to know the whole situation. This family had absolutely no concept of keeping secrets.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the older brother to explain what had happened.

In Yu Meng's mind, her older brother should be a steady and reliable person. But now, her expectations were completely shattered. Her older brother was talking about what happened in town, his eyes were shining brightly, his face was flushed, and most importantly, he was gesturing wildly as he spoke, clearly very excited.

"You don't know, of the five kids from our village who went this year, only the eldest sister got five lines. That girl named Erni only got two. I saw the murderous look in her parents' eyes." After saying all that, Yu Jun was probably thirsty, so he reached for the water glass on the table and drank it in big gulps.

The eldest sister glanced at Yu Meng, who was sitting quietly there. She knew that all of this was thanks to Xiao Si; without Xiao Si, she would also be that girl with only two lines.

Her parents had specifically instructed her that her younger sister was different and that she shouldn't mention it to anyone, not even her own brothers.

"Here you go, little sister, these are some snacks I bought in town. Try them, they're delicious."

Yu Meng reached out and took it. She was also curious about what kind of snacks were in this world.

Yu Meng's eyes widened as she opened the wrapping paper. This was delicious snacks! Weren't these just two cookies?

She glanced at her older sister, then slowly put the cookie in her mouth. It was just very sweet, with no other flavor.

The young man's eyes were fixed on her. "Little sister, is it delicious?"

Yu Meng looked at him, then at the cookie in her hand, and then handed one to the delivery guy.

Yu Hai took a step back, waving his hands frantically. "I'm your older brother, how can I take your things? Eat up, this is what your older sister bought for you."

Yu Meng just stared at him, her hand still there. Yu Hai looked at his mother for help.

"Your little sister gave it to you, so you can have a taste."

Yu Hai's face turned red. "I'm the older brother, how could I steal my sister's food?"

Mom came up, took the biscuit from Yu Meng's hand, broke it into three pieces, and gave one to each of her older brother, older sister, and Yu Hai.

Yu Hai put the cookie in his mouth, smiled at his little sister, and said, "Little sister, it's so sweet."

Yu Meng nodded; the cookies were sweet, after all.

Yu Meng looked at her elder sister in confusion. The Xue family girl got engaged after hearing there were five lines. Why hadn't anyone mentioned it to her older sister?

"Dad, do you think our eldest sister already has five lines of data collection? Can't we form our own data collection team?" Yu Jun's voice was filled with excitement.

"Not yet. Dali has no experience at all. She needs more practice." Dad's consideration was indeed thorough.

"I heard that there are many girls like Dali in Mr. Zhou's school. Should we send Dali there to study as well?" the mother said hesitantly from the side.

"Mr. Zhou's school isn't expensive. But I've heard it's very tough; these girls have to go to the countryside." The father was a little reluctant to let them go.

"Dad, Mom, I'll go! I'm not afraid of hardship!" Dali shouted from the side.

"Then let our Dali go. Without skills, you can't do anything. Dali, you must learn carefully once you're in there," her mother instructed.

"Little sister, study hard, our family will be counting on you in the future," Yu Jun said from the side.

Mr. Yu glared at his son. "Don't listen to your older brother. You're a girl; our family doesn't depend on you."

Yu Meng looked at her older brother, a complex mix of emotions swirling within her. She felt she didn't really want a brother like this; he seemed too selfish.

Mr. Yu tugged at his eldest son, then turned and walked out of the house.

The father and son stood in the courtyard outside. "Yu Jun, what were you thinking? Why did you say those things to your sister?"

Yu Jun said, "Ah, isn't it only right for girls to help their families? Look at the Xue family, and the eldest sister of the Fan family."

Mr. Yu, "So, will you split all our family assets—the house, the land—equally with your older sister?"

"Who would give their family fortune to a girl?" Yu Jun said.

"Then what makes you think your older sister can support this family?" Father Yu's tone was tinged with anger.

"The money she earned should go to this family, the effort she put in should go to this family. In the end, you got everything from this family. What makes you think you deserve it?" Father Yu's tone became strangely calm.

"Ah, I didn't think that much about it. Isn't this how it is here?" Yu Jun felt that he hadn't said anything wrong, but what his father said seemed to make sense.

"Then take a look at these families, how many of them are truly wealthy? Go and observe them carefully tomorrow. As my eldest son, it is your responsibility to support this family." After saying this, Mr. Yu walked out.

Yu Hai ran out from behind the door. "Big brother, Dad scolded you."

"No, he just asked me to investigate some things." The doubt in Yu Jun's eyes remained.

He didn't say anything wrong, so why was his father so angry?
