The reason why Old Lady Han could be so affectionate was, firstly, because of Su Wenyue's background, and secondly, Su Wenyue was just her granddaughter-in-law. There was a generation gap, so there were fewer conflicts. Unlike Yang, the old lady would never like her at all. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were natural enemies.

Su Wenyue was unmoved by the kindness shown by the old lady. She was from the second house, so how could she betray and stand on the old lady's side? She was not stupid. What's more, there was clearly some desire and greed in the old lady's eyes, not true love.

"No need, grandma. My mother-in-law has gone to the kitchen to work. It doesn't make sense for a daughter-in-law like me to rest there. So I can only appreciate your kindness."

When Yang heard that the old lady was treating the fourth son's wife in a very friendly manner, which was contrary to her usual behavior, she was worried that the fourth son's wife could not see the old lady's true face and was won over by her. When she heard what the fourth son's wife said, she felt relieved and felt more and more that she was the right wife for the fourth son. Not only was she smart and filial, but she could also be clear-headed at critical moments. She was unlike the eldest niece's wife in the first room, who fawned on the old lady and was always in a quarrel with her stepmother, never having a peaceful day.

Although Mrs. Han had ulterior motives, her attitude towards Su Wenyue was quite good. She didn't expect that her granddaughter-in-law didn't appreciate it at all and didn't give her any face in front of her daughter-in-law. Her expression immediately turned ugly.

"Puchi!" At this time, someone couldn't help laughing out loud. The people from the second room looked at each other and it turned out to be Han Wangshi. She was originally going to the kitchen, but stopped for some reason. She probably saw that the people from the second room didn't catch up with her, and ended up seeing her mother-in-law trying to curry favor with her grandson's wife and being rejected, so she laughed.

Han Wangshi relied on the fact that she had given birth to two sons and had a stable position in the Han family, so she was not very afraid of her mother-in-law. However, this old woman was so annoying. Not only did she help her ex-wife's son to sing against her, but she also often used filial piety to pressure her, causing her to suffer a lot. Now that she saw the old woman being humiliated, Han Wangshi was very happy.

"Oh, this is hilarious. I say some people are so embarrassed. They just want to take advantage of others because they are attracted by their wealth. They try to curry favor with others, but in the end, they don't appreciate it at all. Oh!"

Han Wangshi's words were very blunt, and her bluntness was comparable to Liu's. However, Liu only had two women left, and she lacked confidence and dared not act arrogantly in front of her mother-in-law. Han Wangshi was not hurt at all, and did not save any face for her mother-in-law. Anyway, even if there were any benefits, she would not be able to get any of them, so she might as well make her mother-in-law feel upset.

The Han family really had all the best stuff. The eyes of the wives from the second house all flashed with smiles, and Yang felt that she had finally let out a sigh of relief after all these years.

"Hmph, you ungrateful people, you are all so troublesome, what are you still standing here for! Go to the kitchen and help, you are waiting for a free meal!" The old lady probably knew that she could not take any advantage of Su Wenyue, so she naturally put away her previous good face. As for the extra people from the second room, Yang Juxiang and her daughter, the old lady didn't even notice them at that time. Judging from their clothes and appearance, she knew they were poor and not worthy of her attention.

Yang Juxiang and her daughter also looked unhappy. They had come here with the idea of ​​getting free food and drinks. Today was the old lady's birthday, so there must be a lot of delicious food. Not to mention, the birthday buns made by the eldest sister's family were very good. They didn't expect to be treated like servants by the people from the first branch of the Han family. It was really too much for them to help in the kitchen.

Yang Juxiang and her daughter had heard that people from the Han family's eldest branch were difficult to get along with, and they insisted on coming because they thought that after all, they were guests, and even if the people from the Han family's eldest branch didn't like them, they would at most just not give them a good look. They never expected that people from the Han family's eldest branch would be so shameless.

The people from the second house, several wives went into the kitchen to help, while the children followed the men to chop firewood in the backyard. It was probably that the people from the first house deliberately waited for them to come to work today. There was half a yard of firewood piled in the yard, which would probably last for several months after being chopped. Although firewood was cheap, it cost a lot of money to buy such half a yard. The old lady felt distressed and thought that if she could let the people from the second house prepare the firewood and deliver it to them, she could save the money. However, since the first and second houses were to separate, they had to find a suitable reason.

The second wife's father and sons, except Han Lin, were not the kind of petty people, and they were strong and healthy. It was just a matter of a little more effort. Instead of being scolded by the old lady, it was better to do more work and earn peace of mind. Anyway, it only happened once or twice a year, so they picked up their arms and started working without saying anything. The children were also sensible and helped to fetch firewood. They were all children from farming families and were used to doing farm work since childhood, so these ordinary tasks were no problem for them.

Su Wenyue followed her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law to the kitchen. Several daughters-in-law from the first house were also there. The relationship in the first house was a bit complicated. Han Jinbiao had three sons and one daughter. The first son and daughter were born to his ex-wife, and the last two sons were born to his second wife, Han Wangshi. Except for the youngest son, the other two sons and one daughter were all married.

In addition to Han Wangshi and her two daughters-in-law, there was also the old lady's married daughter working in the kitchen. The old lady actually had two daughters, but they married into different families, one in the county town and the other in another village. Given the old lady's character, one can imagine that they were treated differently.

When the mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law from the first house saw Su Wenyue and the others coming in, only Han Wang said hello. The others ignored the people from the second house. Instead, the old lady's eldest daughter, Han Ying, enthusiastically called Yang "sister-in-law" and greeted several nieces and their wives. This was met with a disdainful snort from the first house, and only then did Han Ying put away her smile and lowered her head to work.

"Second uncle, you must be tired after working for so long. I'll pour you some water. Drink some water before you continue working." Han Fang was treated well in the first wife's house because of her eldest brother, and she also married well. The old lady didn't let her work when she came back. This girl was kind-hearted, very different from the people in the first wife's house. She had always disagreed with the first wife's attitude towards the second wife. Seeing that the men in the second wife's house were working hard and she could not help much, she brought some tea over.

"Fang'er, thank you. You are so sensible." Old Man Han and his sons took the water and sighed in their hearts. This girl is a rare one in the eldest wife's family who did not grow up astray.

"Fourth cousin, I didn't have time to go to your wedding with your cousin's wife, and I felt really bad about it. This is a little gift from me. I hope you and your cousin's wife can live happily in the future." Han Fang handed a small cloth bag to Han Yu. Actually, it was not that she didn't have time to go, but it was inconvenient for her to go because of the people in the eldest house, otherwise her stepmother would have something to nag about her again.
