"Since you know they are talking nonsense, there is no need to listen to them. Some people just can't stand to see others doing well, so it's normal for them to say sour words. Besides, the fourth brother is really capable and is not the kind of person who relies on his wife for a living. Sooner or later he will make a career. He has nothing to fear from others as long as he stands upright." Yang said this with some dissatisfaction in her heart. What the eldest brother's wife said was not completely unreasonable. It was fine that her younger sister and niece didn't help with anything these days, but instead had the leisure to listen to other people's nonsense.

Yang Juxiang and her daughter originally thought that this was a good opportunity to sow discord between Yang and Su Wenyue, but they didn't expect that Yang was not shaken at all, and the meaning of her words sounded a little wrong.

"That's what elder sister said. That's exactly what happened. Those people just can't stand seeing other families doing well and like to gossip. If someone's family got a daughter-in-law like the fourth child, they wouldn't be able to provide for her enough."

Yang Juxiang was smart. She knew she couldn't stir up trouble by saying this, so she changed the subject. This was not her original purpose, she was just doing it as a by-product. So she glanced at the bowl of chicken soup. The chicken in it was stewed until the skin was crispy and the meat was tender. All the essence was absorbed into the soup. You could tell it was delicious just by smelling it.

Yang Juxiang and her daughter had their eyes on the bowl of chicken soup, and Yang felt sorry for her younger sister and niece, so needless to say, the chicken soup eventually ended up in the stomachs of Yang Juxiang and her daughter.

Su Wenyue just smiled when she found out. She was not surprised at all. The food in the Han family was not as good as before. It had been two or three days. Based on her understanding of Yang Juxiang and her daughter, it was not easy for her to wait until now to take action. However, she did not expect that Yang Juxiang and her daughter would come up with this idea. It seemed that Yang Juxiang did not have much sisterly affection for her mother-in-law, otherwise she would have specially stewed this soup for her mother-in-law to drink for her health.

"What are you laughing at? What bad ideas are you planning?" Han Yu saw his wife's cunning smile when he came back, and raised his eyebrows.

"Husband, you're back!" Su Wenyue heard the voice and turned around to look.

Knowing that Su Wenyue had a slight obsession with cleanliness, Han Yu had already cleaned up his room before returning. He hugged his wife in his arms and said, "Tell me, what are you grinning about? Don't change the subject."

"No way, you must have seen it wrong. How could a pure and kind person like me have any bad intentions? Husband, how can you think so bad of me?" Su Wenyue looked at Han Yu innocently. She would not admit it easily, especially when the one who schemed against her was her mother-in-law.

"Don't play dumb with me. I, your husband, have sharp eyes. If you don't tell the truth, I will punish you!" Han Yu deliberately emphasized the word "punish".

Here he comes again, but under normal circumstances, Su Wenyue still falls for Han Yu's tricks, and she doesn't want to be tormented by Han Yu.

"It's really nothing, I was just thinking about the old lady and the first wife. I never knew we had such a relative before. Since they live in the county town, their conditions must be good. But judging from mother's attitude, the relationship between our two families seems to be very bad."

Han Yu didn't expect Su Wenyue to suddenly mention the old lady and the first wife. Thinking about it carefully, he indeed had not mentioned it to his wife. However, his family usually did not contact that family. Even on the day of his wedding, that family did not come. He had completely forgotten the existence of that family. Counting the days, it was probably almost the old lady's birthday. No wonder.

Han Yu is not Han Hu. He has a cold personality and will not be bound by the so-called rules and ethics. He can be very good to the people he cares about, but he has no feelings for the old lady and the first wife of the Han family, who do not regard them as relatives at all and only want to extract benefits from their family, but look down on their so-called relatives. If it were not for his own father, Han Yu would have taken action against the old lady for stepping on his own mother.

"I'm just curious, so I'm asking. If you can't tell me, forget it. I saw that mom was hesitant to talk when she talked about them."

"It's nothing to be ashamed of. I just don't have much contact with them. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. Since you asked, I'll remind you a few words. The old lady's birthday is coming soon. Our whole family must go to celebrate her birthday. Don't let them be unfavorable when the time comes because you don't know their background."

"Hearing what you said, it seems that the old lady and the first wife are not easy to deal with." Su Wenyue's eyes rolled around.

"There aren't many good people in that family. They are arrogant and incompetent. They may not have much ability, but they have a good self-image and don't look down on others, especially in front of country people like us. So although they are related to our family, they don't regard us as relatives. They just want to squeeze benefits from our family. You don't have to be surprised or pay attention to them when you see them. But if they dare to bully you, just fight back. If the old lady and the eldest aunt rely on their seniority to suppress you, don't fight with them out of anger, so as not to ruin your reputation. Tell me later and I will avenge you."

Han Yu knew that his wife was not simple either. She was smart and clever, but she was young after all. Even if she married into the Han family, the most thoughtful person she met was only Wang, which was actually nothing. He had learned a lot of tricks from that family over the years. Although they were not very presentable, they were very effective in dealing with people. Sometimes people were shameless to a certain extent, and he was afraid that his wife would not be their opponent. Otherwise, Han Yu's personality was such that he would not bother with these things. He was just afraid that his wife would suffer.

"Got it. Don't worry. Who am I to deal with it? I heard from my eldest sister-in-law that the old lady and the people from the first house have made things difficult for mom and our family. Don't worry, I'm here this time. I will definitely protect them from being bullied by the people from the first house.

Han Yu knew that his wife did this for him, and he felt relieved. He patted his wife's head and said, "Just protect yourself and don't let others bully you."

Time passed quickly, and a few days went by in the blink of an eye. The day before the old lady Han's birthday, the Han family's daughters-in-law put down their work and made birthday buns together in the kitchen.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The method of making longevity buns is simple. It is just ordinary sugar buns, and then a little red is added in the middle of the bun to make it look auspicious and festive. Although it is easy to make, the quantity is large, and kneading the dough requires strength. After a day, the wives are exhausted.

Su Wenyue originally wanted to ask her husband to help knead the dough, but the family has not yet separated, and people here believe that men should not go into the kitchen. So she just thought about it and did not express her idea out loud. Anyway, her mother-in-law would not agree if she expressed it, and would instead be dissatisfied with her.
