She had thought of the second method under her Big sister’s guidance.
He Yulan pondered for a while and decisively chose the second option.
The first option was also good as it would allow her to learn a new skill. However, she didn’t want to be too selfish and only think about herself. She was already grateful that Su Xiu was willing to partner with her.
Therefore, she might as well choose the second option.
The two of them discussed the specific details of their partnership. Su Xiu would go back and make the steamed cakes now, and she could be delivered the next morning. The previous time they sold them for fifty cents each, but He Yulan would buy them wholesale for thirty cents each.
For Su Xiu, although the price was lower than what she had sold before, she would save time. Considering labor costs and effort, it was still a good deal.
For He Yulan, it was a guaranteed profit and a significant advantage.
After Su Xiu left, He Yulan lost interest in continuing her work. She requested leave from her team leader and happily headed home. On the way, she bumped into He Changming, who was heading to the fields. She immediately greeted him with joy, “Big brother, why are you here?”
He Changming’s face darkened. “You didn’t even inform the family about your separate the family.”
“I was in a rush!” Usually, when a married woman went through the process of splitting from her family, it was customary for her family members to help her avoid any disadvantages. “Besides, I didn’t suffer any losses.”
He Changming remained displeased, “You call this not suffering losses? You hardly ever do any farm work at home.”
He Yulan felt embarrassed. Before getting married, she was lazy at home. She loved accompanying her Big brother on hunting trips in the mountains. With limited land at home, her parents took care of the farming, and she never had to do any agricultural work.
It was only after marrying Xu Xiangdong that she started doing farm work. She had no choice. Being a daughter-in-law was different from being a carefree girl at home. If she dared to be lazy and willful, she would undoubtedly be mocked by her sisters-in-law and relatives.
In order to stand firm, she had to work hard.
“The past is the past. Now that I am someone’s daughter-in-law, how can I behave the same way as I did at home?” He Yulan said, feeling embarrassed.
“Humph!” He Changming snorted coldly. “I think Xu Xiangdong is useless. If he were of any use, would he make you work so hard?” Speaking of which, He Changming was filled with anger towards Xu Xiangdong. If it weren’t for his sister’s sake, he would have given his brother-in-law a good beating.
From the very beginning, he had never approved of such a person. If it weren’t for Yulan insisting on marrying him, their family would never have agreed.
“Yes, Big brother, you’re right. When you get married, you definitely won’t let my sister-in-law work hard.”
“That’s for sure,” He Changming replied as a matter of course.
“By the way, Big brother, did you see Su Xiu just now?” The two of them returned to the village within a short time of each other, so Su Xiu should have also encountered her Big brother.
When Su Xiu was mentioned, He Changming, who had just been teased by his sister and wasn’t feeling embarrassed, now felt uneasy upon hearing Su Xiu’s name.
“Yes, I saw her.”
“Did you talk? Did you greet her?” He Yulan asked curiously.
“I greeted her.”
“What did you say?”
He Changming gave his sister a stern look. “Just a greeting, what else do you think we could talk about?”
“I know you greeted each other. I’m asking about the specific conversation.”
He Changming grumpily replied, “I just said hello, what else? Can’t you think of anything?”
“That’s a shame.” He Yulan was even more eager than Her big brother. “By the way, did you know? Su Xiu asked me to partner with her in a business. It’s the steamed cake they sell in town, do you know about it? Previously, Su Xiu and her Big sister did it. But according to Su Xiu, Su Wen doesn’t have time to continue, so she handed it over to her..”
