Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1423 - 1425: Second Sister-in-law, Let Me Help You!

After Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Li Chuntao spoke very bashfully, "Auntie, sorry to bother you."

"What bother, it’s just a meal. But in this countryside, there’s nothing fancy. Please don’t mind." Yang Ming’s mother said, standing up.

Li Chuntao was a bit nervous just now, but seeing Xiaoxiao’s mother-in-law, who was very kind and amiable, she relaxed, "Auntie, I don’t mind at all. I’m from the countryside too, I’m from the same village as Xiaoxiao."

Seeing the girl in front of her, looking very pretty and wearing nice clothes, presumably from a wealthy family in the city, Yang Ming’s mother was surprised to learn that she came from the same village as the third daughter-in-law. The third daughter-in-law only mentioned she was a friend and didn’t elaborate.

"Alright then!" Yang Ming’s mother said, patting the dust off her clothes, "Third daughter-in-law, you look after the child, I’ll go make lunch for you."

Seeing her mother-in-law about to cook, Xiaoxiao spoke up, "Mom, let me cook lunch today. I can let Chuntao try my cooking."

Xiaoxiao felt that everyone in the family was busy, and she felt a bit awkward doing nothing, so she thought she might as well make lunch.

No one thought much of it, but Li Chuntao was very surprised. Could Xiaoxiao cook? At home, Xiaoxiao neither cooked nor did laundry.

But upon further thought, when Xiaoxiao got married, the Yang Family was so poor, she must have learned to cook and do laundry. Marrying into the countryside is not the same as marrying in the city; cooking and laundry are basic skills.

Thinking about herself, aside from writing a bit, playing some tunes, and doing some needlework, what else could she do?

It seemed she couldn’t do anything.

If she married here, she’d probably be useless.

Thinking of this, she blushed with embarrassment. What was she even thinking? She wasn’t getting married.

Yet, the thought of not knowing anything and Yang Dong’s family finding out made her feel she’d lose face.

She wondered, should she go back and learn how to cook?

Upon hearing that the third daughter-in-law wanted Li Chuntao to try her cooking, Yang Ming’s mother agreed. In this house, her cooking wasn’t as good as the daughters-in-law, so it was better not to cook for guests.

So she changed her mind, "Alright, then you cook, make a few more dishes."

She then turned to Yang Chun’s wife, "Eldest daughter-in-law, go help the third daughter-in-law, give her a hand."

It wasn’t yet noon break, so work still needed to be done. Just because there’s a guest, it doesn’t mean everyone can stop working.

So the eldest daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to prepare meals, while others continued threshing corn.

But how to arrange the guest?

Certainly, the guest shouldn’t be in the kitchen, right?

Thinking it over, it would be best to bring out a stool for Li Chuntao and let her sit in the yard and play with the child.

Just as she was about to go in and get a stool for Li Chuntao, she saw Li Chuntao walk over to the second daughter-in-law and say, "Second sister-in-law, let me help you!"

Li Chuntao said this and sat next to Yang Gang’s wife, picking up the corn nearby and started threshing.

The reason she knew that this was Yang Dong’s second sister-in-law was because she had just heard Yang Dong’s mother call someone the eldest daughter-in-law, and then a woman stood up, which made her realize the one who approached Xiaoxiao was the eldest sister-in-law, so the one left must be the second sister-in-law.
