They face-slap the scheming heroine at every turn and build happy lives with their own husbands.

When the two brothers see how hard their wives are working, they feel ashamed by comparison.
The two friends quickly become famous, and everyone in the family compound hears about them.
The family members who always thought the two country girls were useless now see them in a whole new light.
Just as life is getting better and better, Jiang Ruan complains to Yu Zhao that her husband is like a ravenous wolf and doesn’t know when to stop.
Yu Zhao, covered in red marks herself, also complains that her husband has no self-control.
After talking it over, they ditch their husbands and team up to make a name for themselves.
