Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Sixth sister enjoyed bullying the Little sister. Little sister was not willing to be bullied and had now joined forces with Su Xiaoya to confront the Sixth sister. Su Xiu was dumbfounded. If she hadnât accidentally overheard it, she wouldnât have believed it.
...
However, Su Xiu didnât intend to reveal it. After all, she and Su Qing used to argue when they were young, but their relationship was still good now that they had grown up.
In the afternoon, Su Xiu assumed that Sister Yulan should have finished dealing with the division of the familyâs assets, so she went to her house. However, upon arrival, the door was locked, and she realized that it might be time for fieldwork.
Su Xiu found He Yulan in the fields. She was busy weeding. When He Yulan saw Su Xiu approaching, she was delighted.
Xiu.â
âSister Yulan. â
âPlease, donât call me Sister Yulan. Just call me by my name,â When He Yulan heard Su Xiu call her sister-in-law, she felt that something was wrong. She couldnât let her Big brother hear this, or else he would get angry.
Big brother was so petty that he insisted she called Su Xiu âsister-in-lawâ immediately. How could he allow Su Xiu to call her sister-in-law?
Wouldnât that mess up their relationship?
âWhy?â Su Xiu asked.
âUm⊠itâs nothing. I just feel old when you call me sister-in-law,â He Yulan replied.
âAlright then!â Su Xiu agreed obediently.
He Yulan walked to the edge of the field with a hoe and sat on the grass, taking a break. She then asked Su Xiu, âBy the way, why havenât you been going to the fields lately? Thereâs no one in your family working in the fields. Isnât that a problem?â
After speaking, He Yulan suddenly realized that the village had been discussing land division recently. She suddenly understood and said, âOh! I just remembered itâs time for land division. Many people have lost interest in earning work points, not only in your family but in many households recently.â
Everyone was thinking about dividing the land! Those with larger families had secretly discussed it and hoped to get a larger share.
However, He Yulan didnât mind. After all, the land division followed national policies, and she would receive the portion she was entitled to.
She was determined not to take advantage of the country or exploit any loopholes. She wanted to be a diligent farmer and believed that with hard work and dedication, she could succeed and become prosperous.
âItâs not because of that.â Su Xiu felt a little embarrassed when she mentioned her motive. âSister YulanâŠâ
âStop, call me Yulan.â
âOh! Yulan, I havenât been working in the fields and earning work points for a long time, not just recently.â
He Yulan used to work with her every day, so she knew the situation. But wasnât it because of the previous disagreement with Sun Dahaiâs family? Was there something else?
âWhy?â He Yulan asked.
Thinking about her Big sisterâs money-making idea, Su Xiu smiled shyly. She looked around to make sure nobody nearby could hear, then said, âItâs because my Big sister started selling steamed cakes, and Iâve been helping her. Our family has been too busy with that, so I havenât been going to the fields.â
Once they started earning money, they didnât value the meager amount of work points anymore.
Sometimes, Su Xiu worried that she had learned some bad habits and wasnât as diligent and hardworking as before.
She had reached a point where she didnât even care about work points.
âWhat?â He Yulan exclaimed, standing up suddenly.
Su Xiu quickly gestured for her to lower her voice. âDonât shout. Itâs not good if someone overhears.â
âOh!â He Yulan sat back down, but she still had a bewildered look on her face. She found it hard to believe.. However, she understood now and covered her mouth, asking in a hushed voice, âSo it was your family that sold the steamed cakes that were popular in town some time ago?â
