Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1376 - 1378: I Never Expected That Yang Xiaocui Was Faking It!

After hearing this, Yang Dahui furrowed his brows and spoke coolly, "Then grab the tools, and let’s head out."

The few of them were resentful, but with their sister-in-law/little sister there, it wasn’t easy to say anything, so they all took their tools and went off to work in the fields.

With their mother-in-law and sister-in-law around just now, the few daughters-in-law were angry but dared not speak. Their sister-in-law had clearly found a step up, and their mother-in-law’s attitude towards her had taken a complete turn, treating her exceptionally well.

The sister-in-law was pretending to faint, she wasn’t really sick, yet she was excused from work. Cooking and delivering a meal isn’t such strenuous work, but they were toiling in the fields, exhausted to death, and still had to endure with empty stomachs.

The more the daughters-in-law thought about it, the more upset and unfair it felt. The mother-in-law was really treating the sister-in-law like a rich young lady.

When someone gets angry, it’s inevitable to grumble a bit.

The eldest daughter-in-law spoke first, with a sour tone, "Now we’ll be pushed to the side, even the little ones have to step aside, look at the mother-in-law, raising the little sister so high, she doesn’t even have to work anymore."

The second daughter-in-law chimed in, "Isn’t it exactly that way? Letting us work in the fields with empty stomachs, not even allowing the sister-in-law to bring us food, we’re too hungry to work efficiently."

"Exactly, the mother-in-law sure is biased. Just because she found a good family to marry into? But there’s not even a shadow of a certainty yet, and she’s already raising her up like that." The third daughter-in-law also spoke sourly, feeling jealous at the thought of the sister-in-law finding such a good match.

To say their sister-in-law’s looks, she was way behind her, yet she ended up marrying into such a poor family, where there’s barely enough to eat, and still has to work hungry.

"Hmph, the little sister isn’t even really sick, just pretending to faint, why does she get to rest and not cook or bring us food, it’s really something," the eldest daughter-in-law continued to criticize, clearly unconvinced.

Hearing his wife bring up the sister-in-law pretending to faint, Yang Dahui quickly reminded, "Enough, what mother said, you dare bring that up? What if someone hears it, what then?"

Yang Dahui’s reminder made his wife instantly alert, she quickly looked around and only felt relieved when she saw no one was around; if someone had heard, it would be no joke, the mother-in-law would flay her alive.

The others were also cautious, only relaxing once they confirmed they were alone, "We shouldn’t bring this up anymore."

They didn’t mention it further, turning instead to discuss the busy farmwork.

"Sigh, because of this, neither yesterday nor today did we get any work done, we’ve fallen behind other families."

"Isn’t that true? And who’s going to do the work we’ve fallen behind on? There’s no one to help us."

"Oh come on, if we really get in-laws with the old Yang family, we could use their ox cart and horse cart, couldn’t we?"

"Now that you mention it, really, we should have a good talk with the mother-in-law about this when we get back tonight."

"Having that ox cart and horse cart would really save us a lot of trouble."

"..."

"..."

The few people chatted while heading towards their cornfield.

Unexpectedly, someone emerged from the nearby cornfield, watching the group’s backs with a faintly mocking expression, humming softly, "Hmph, who would’ve thought, that Yang Xiaocui was just pretending to faint!"
