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

"Juxiang, you go and have a rest. The work here is enough for us, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law." Yang said when she saw Yang Juxiang and her daughter coming to help. She was still somewhat happy. But after all, this was their family's business, and although the work looked easy, it was actually very tiring. It was enough to have the intention. Yang really had no intention of wanting her younger sister and niece to help.

"Big sister, look at what you said. How could we be so ignorant? Seeing you busy in the kitchen while you are taking a rest, I feel bad. Big sister, you can go to the side and take a rest. Your injury is not fully healed yet. I will do your work for you."

Yang Juxiang always said nice things on the surface. She really didn't want to help with other work. Steaming longevity buns was different. You have to steam so many trays. After steaming, eat one or two from each tray to see if they are cooked. Who can say anything? You haven't eaten enough in the past few days. You would be stupid not to take this opportunity to fill your stomach. These are all steamed with the best white flour. They are fragrant and soft. How can those buns made from whole grains compare to them.

"Yes, auntie, you can't get tired. I'll come and help you." Jiang Chunlan said with a smile, and started to knead the dough with even force. She changed the shape of the dough with each kneading. She was very skilled, much more skilled than Su Wenyue, which showed that she was used to doing it at home.

After hearing what Yang Juxiang and her daughter said, Yang really stopped and handed the work over to Yang Juxiang. They were old sisters after all, and it would seem awkward to care so much about it.

"Fourth brother's wife, you should take a break too. I see you are having a hard time kneading the dough and your forehead is sweating. You are not used to doing this kind of work normally, so don't overexert yourself suddenly, otherwise you will definitely have a sore back the next day."

Su Wenyue has been serving her mother-in-law these days by stewing soup and boiling tonic medicine, and her hard work has not been in vain. It seems to be effective now. It is rare for Yang to be so considerate of her daughter-in-law. This would have been absolutely impossible in the past.

Jiang Chunlan felt depressed after hearing what Yang said. Su Wenyue couldn't be tired. It seemed that she was destined to be exhausted to death!

Jiang Chunlan felt uncomfortable but didn't want to endure it, so she blurted out the sour words: "Yes, fourth cousin, you should take a rest as soon as possible. Your body is very precious, not as strong as ours. Lest your aunt feel bad. This person is lucky, it's different. Fourth cousin has a good background, her parents are very supportive, and even after she got married, her husband's family also supports her. How can we compare? I have to go to the temple someday to pray to the Bodhisattva to let me be reborn into a good family in the next life. It's better than anything else!"

After Jiang Chunlan finished speaking, Yang Juxiang's face darkened and she slapped her daughter on the head: "You are such a worrywart. You haven't even figured out how to live your life in this one, but you're already thinking about your next life. I've loved you so much in vain. How come you don't even remember a single kindness from me!"

The Han family's sisters-in-law saw Yang Juxiang and her daughter smiling at each other. Without Wang around, Liu was won over by Su Wenyue. The sisters-in-law faced the outside world with one heart and their 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 with each other and there was a real family atmosphere, she felt more relieved and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, mother is right. You are not used to doing these things. Don't exert yourself so hard all of a sudden, or you will get tired. We still have to go to that family tomorrow. You have never seen that family before, and you don't know them. They all like to look down on us and also like to humiliate us. We will have to fight wits and courage. Fourth daughter-in-law, you are smart and capable. In the past, our second branch was always suppressed by them and couldn't turn over. This year, it's different with you. So fourth daughter-in-law, you can't get tired. I am counting on you to fight for our second branch. Your task now is to get enough rest. Don't work anymore!"

Unlike Wang, Liu was not as cunning as others. She had received many benefits from Su Wenyue and had been on her side, and she did not think too much about the rest. In her opinion, a person's fate was determined at birth, so there was nothing to think about. Now she was counting on Su Wenyue to help her deal with those people in the first house, so she was even more diligent. She was almost offering them up as a sacrifice. It can be seen that Liu was resentful of the old lady of the Han family and the first house. Although she could only see them twice a year, she still held a grudge. Liu was not as vindictive as Wang, so she could only be bullied by the people in the first house.

"Yes, fourth son's wife, don't bother. You are not good at these things, but you know a lot and are smart. You just need to guide us on how to do better." Li also echoed from the side. She was not talking about the affairs of the eldest wife, but she felt that the fourth son's wife was really a smart person. After a little guidance, the steamed longevity buns became much more fragrant and soft, and the color was not yellow. They were white and plump, and with the red marks on them, they looked really pleasing to the eye. It also saved a lot of flour. The flour that originally could only make one longevity bun can now make almost two.

But did Li have no complaints against the old lady of the Han family and the people of the first house? Not really. An honest person like Li would only work hard, unlike Liu who had a bad temper and would argue with others. At most, she would be given a few cold stares and some harsh sarcasm by the old lady and the people of the first house, but Li would not refute. Seeing that Li was so honest, 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 first 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 as to consider the old lady of the Han family and the people of the first wife. It was just that the longevity buns were sent by their second wife, and it would look good on the table, and it was for the sake of the second wife's reputation. Moreover, it was also to save flour, as the original longevity buns were not fermented well, and the taste was hard and consumed a lot of materials. This way, she killed two birds with one stone.

The longevity buns were ready and packed layer by layer in clean large baskets prepared in advance. An afternoon passed like this. Everything was ready and just waiting to be sent to the county town early tomorrow morning. In the past, we had to get up before dawn to rush to the city, and this had been no exception for several years. After all, the ox cart moved slowly and swayed, so a lot of time was spent on the road. But the good news was that Xiaoxi actually came back when it was getting 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.
