Rebirth of a Farming Wife

Yang Juxiang and her daughter came to help voluntarily, which surprised the Han family. After all, everyone had seen how the mother and daughter behaved these days. Apart from eating, they just chatted with the villagers and ignored other serious matters.

"Juxiang, you should take a rest. The work here is enough for us mother-in-law and daughter-in-law." Yang said when she saw Yang Juxiang and her daughter came to help. She was still a little happy. However, this was their family's business after all, and this work looked easy, but it was actually very tiring. It was enough to have the intention. Yang really didn't want her sister and niece to help.

"Big sister, look at what you said, how can we be so ignorant? Seeing you busy in the kitchen but taking a rest by yourself, I feel bad. Big sister, you want to take a rest, your injury is not fully healed yet, I will do your work for you."

Yang Juxiang's words on the surface are always nice. If it is other work, she really doesn't want to help. Steaming birthday buns is different. You have to steam so many trays. After steaming, eat one or two from each tray to taste whether it is cooked. Who can say anything? I haven't eaten much these days. It would be stupid not to take this opportunity to fill my stomach. These are all steamed with the best white flour, fragrant and soft. Those buns made of grains can't compare.

"Yes, aunt, you can't get tired. I will help you too." Jiang Chunlan also said with a smile, and started to knead the dough. The force was even, and the shape changed with each kneading. She was very skilled, much more than Su Wenyue's posture, which showed that she was used to it when she was at home.

After hearing what Yang Juxiang and her daughter said, Yang really stopped and gave the work to Yang Juxiang. They were old sisters, and it would be strange if they cared so much.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, you should take a break too. I see that you are having a hard time kneading the dough, and your forehead is sweating. You are not used to doing these things, so don't be too tired, otherwise you will definitely have backaches when you wake up the next day."

Su Wenyue has been stewing soup and boiling tonic medicine to serve her mother-in-law these days, and it is not in vain. Now it seems that it is effective. It is rare for Yang to be so considerate of her daughter-in-law. This would have been absolutely impossible before.

Jiang Chunlan was so depressed after hearing what Yang said. Su Wenyue can't be tired. It turns out that she is destined to be exhausted!

Jiang Chunlan was uncomfortable and unwilling to endure it, so she said something sour: "Yes, fourth cousin, you should take a rest quickly. Your body is very precious, not as thick-skinned as us, lest your aunt feel sorry for you. This person is lucky, it's different. Fourth cousin has a good background, her parents are powerful, and even if she gets married, her husband's family will support her. How can we compare with us? I will go to the temple to pray to the Bodhisattva someday, let me be reborn in a good way in the next life, which is better than anything else!" After Jiang Chunlan said this, Yang Juxiang's face darkened, and she slapped her daughter on the head: "You are so troublesome, you haven't lived your life well in this life, but you are thinking about the next life. I love you in vain, why don't you remember any good things!" The sisters-in-law of the Han family saw Yang Juxiang and her daughter smiling at each other. Without Wang, Liu was won over by Su Wenyue. The sisters-in-law were united in facing the outside world, and the relationship was unusually harmonious. Yang was a little upset after hearing what her niece said, but when she saw that her daughters-in-law got along well and had a real family atmosphere, she felt relieved and smiled unconsciously.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, mother is right. You are not used to doing these things. Don't exert so much effort all of a sudden, otherwise you will be tired. We have to go to that family tomorrow. You have never seen that family before, and you don't know. Everyone likes to look down on people and also likes to humiliate us. At that time, there will be a battle of wits and courage. Fourth daughter-in-law, you are smart and powerful. In the past, our second branch was always suppressed by them and couldn't turn over. This year, you are different. So fourth daughter-in-law, you can't get tired. I still expect you to fight for our second branch. Your task now is to raise Get up and stop working!"

Liu is not as cunning as Wang. She was originally on Su Wenyue's side because she had received many benefits from her. She didn't think too much about the rest. In her opinion, a person's fate is determined at birth, so there is nothing to think about. Now she is counting on Su Wenyue to help her deal with those people in the first house, so she is even more diligent. She is really just short of worshipping them. It can be seen that Liu is resentful of the old lady of the Han family and the first house. Although she can't see them twice a year, she still holds a grudge. Liu is not as vindictive as Wang. She can only be bullied by the people in the first house.

"Yes, Fourth Daughter-in-law, stop busying yourself. You are not good at these things. But you know a lot and are smart. You can just point out how to do better." Li also responded from the side. She was not talking about the eldest house, but she felt that Fourth Daughter-in-law was really a smart person. With a little guidance, the steamed birthday buns became much more fragrant and soft, and the color was not yellow. They were white and plump. With the red mark, they looked really pleasing. It can also save a lot of flour. The flour that could only make one birthday bun can now make almost two.

But Li had no complaints about the old lady of the Han family and the people of the eldest house? Not really. An honest person like Li would only work hard, unlike Liu, who had a bad temper and would confront others. At most, she would be given a few cold eyes and a few harsh sarcasm by the old lady and the people of the eldest house, but Li would not refute. People saw that Li was so honest that they felt no sense of accomplishment when bullying her, so they would not bully her. Therefore, Li had the least conflicts and contradictions with the eldest house, not to mention that Li was not the kind of person who liked to hold grudges.

Speaking of the improvement of the longevity buns, Su Wenyue was not so kind to consider the old lady of the Han family and the people of the first house. It was just that the longevity buns were sent by their second house. It was also a face-saving thing to put on the table. It was for the sake of the second house. In addition, it was to save flour. The original longevity buns were not fermented well, and the taste was hard and the materials were wasted. It killed two birds with one stone.

The longevity buns were ready, and they were packed layer by layer in the clean large baskets prepared in advance. An afternoon passed like this. Everything was ready, just waiting to be sent to the county town early tomorrow. In the past, they had to get up before dawn to rush to the city. There was no exception in the past few years. After all, the ox cart was shaking and moving slowly, and it took a lot of time on the road. But the good news was that Xiaoxi actually came back when it was dark.

It was such an unexpected surprise. With a horse-drawn carriage, they no longer had to drive the ox-drawn cart slowly. The carriage was fast and could save a lot of time on the road. They also didn't have to get up so early. Moreover, in the eyes of Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Liu, a horse-drawn carriage was a symbol of respectability. Those who could afford a horse-drawn carriage in the county were all powerful families.
