Jiang Qiao was also confused about what was going on. Was it because the water was different? Or was it because the fish couldn't adapt to the water in that pond?

Seeing the newly harvested fish, Jiang Qiao couldn't resist the urge to eat them, but she couldn't take them out for the time being. Going to the countryside would be fine, but as for the other things, she had no intention of looking at them yet; that place seemed too mysterious to her.

After tidying up, I quickly came out. "Grandma, I'm leaving now. You can stay home and relax. There's money and coupons in that drawer. If you want to buy something but don't want to move, just ask Aunt Li to bring it back for you. I'll bring you something delicious when I come back."

When Jiang Qiao drove halfway there, she took a few fish out of the pond. To be honest, she had never seen this kind of fish before. It was all black, but it wasn't a blackfish either. However, since her master had sealed it down there, she guessed it must be something good. It was a pity, though, that she didn't know what kind of wonders this fish could have.

As for whether this thing is poisonous, she really hadn't considered that. In such a spiritually rich valley, it's unlikely that the Grandmaster would specifically seal away some poisonous fish. However, she didn't recognize it, but Ma Liu and the others probably knew something about it.

So, I caught some fish and shrimp and happily drove home.

Qiao Jie and the others were surprised that Jiang Qiao would drive back, and that she would bring them such an unexpected surprise.

Jiang Qiao had never seen this before, but someone else recognized it. "My God, where did you get this fish?"

Even though Jiang Qiao didn't understand, she could still glean some clues from the old men's excited expressions.

"I bought it, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Hou Diankui chuckled, "Girl, your luck is truly unbelievable. Do you know how rare this fish is?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "What's so special about this fish? I didn't recognize it, but it was fresh, so I bought it right away. Don't try to talk nonsense with me. Tell me, what's so special about this thing?"

Ma Liu sighed, "Girl, you don't know, this kind of fish used to be a tribute. It's said that there were already few of them, and later, they became extinct. I thought I would never see them again. It turns out you came across one. Didn't you ask where they caught it?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "I didn't pay much attention when I bought the fish. Who knew it had such a history? Since it was something that was once offered as tribute, let's have a good taste of it."

Grandpa Liu, tell me, besides being delicious, what other uses does this fish have?

Ma Liu glanced at Hou Diankui and said, "Old Hou, you explain this to the girl. I'm going to cook. If you have this, I'll make sure you all eat your tongues off at lunchtime."

Hou Diankui smiled and glanced at Qiao Jie. "Brother, have you heard about this fish?"

Qiao Jie shook his head. "Where would I hear that? But my grandfather did say that there's a kind of fish that tastes really good, and more importantly, it's good for your health. As for how good it is, the old man didn't explain it clearly."

Old Hou, you're so knowledgeable, tell us about it so we can broaden our horizons. We don't want to eat something good without knowing its benefits.

Hou Diankui said with emotion, "To be honest, I looked for this fish back then, and you should know why, Jiang Qiao. Unfortunately, this thing is really too rare, and it's impossible to find. So, my hidden injury never healed until I met Jiang Qiao, and that's when it recovered."

Eating this fish regularly is not only effective for treating hidden injuries, but its eyes and bones are also medicinal materials.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiao finally remembered something: "Oh my god, our sect's medical books do mention something like this, but I've never been able to connect it to this fish."

The label didn't mention that it contained the fish's eyes and bones, so I always thought the medicinal ingredients must be very rare. Who would have thought they were from a fish?

"Hehe, you know, I caught it just in time. Since someone managed to catch it, maybe we'll run into it again in the future. Let's have a good taste of this stuff today."

Qiao Jie asked curiously, "Girl, what can you do with fish eyes and fish bones?"

"Detoxification, you always say, isn't it precious?"

Qiao Jie nodded. "It is quite precious. To say that all the poisons researched by the ancients have been neutralized is a joke. Since this thing has such value, we should preserve it properly for future use."

"Come on, let's go inside. Liu Zi, do a good job, we're counting on you for lunch—"

Ma Liu nodded warmly, "Big brother, just wait and see, I promise you won't be disappointed."

Jiang Qiao carried the meat to the kitchen. "Grandpa Liu, this is what I hunted in the mountains. You can prepare it yourself. I'm going inside now."

While preparing the fish, Ma Liu said to Jiang Qiao, "Don't rush to eat the meat, girl. Should we eat the fish eyes and bones first, or now?"

Jiang Qiao understands this: "Gouge out the eyes, but don't cook them thoroughly. We can deal with the bones after we finish eating."

Jiang Qiao went inside and talked to the old men about Ning Zhengtao.

Qiao Jie sighed, "I told you this guy was muddle-headed, but he wouldn't listen. He's shrewd on the outside, but it's a pity his brain has never been working properly. I really don't know how he studied back then."

Hou Diankui shook his head. "It's a bit difficult for our Qiao'er, girl. What do you plan to do?"

Jiang Qiao gave a bitter smile. "What can we do? If they won't support us, we will. As for the house, let whoever wants to take it, take it. I don't care. However, judging from the old lady's attitude, she won't give it to them easily."

That's true, now that the old man is back, he needs somewhere to stay.

I told them they could stay in the new house, but it seems like my grandma doesn't really want to go.

"That's true, that place is an apartment building, not as big as their original house, and it's inconvenient to go up and down the stairs—"

Hou Diankui sighed, "So, things will be a bit troublesome from now on. After all, your father-in-law hasn't gotten involved yet. If he knew how the old folks were handling things, their eldest son might have some ideas."

However, I think the old lady is right to do so. Why should they have everything? The elderly don't even have a place to live. Living with them is the worst possible option. In the long run, it's bound to lead to conflict.

Your grandmother knows perfectly well what kind of people your two children are.

Even though they are your own flesh and blood, people change, especially after they start their own families and have their own children. You can't understand people's hearts.

Well, let the old lady handle this herself. Although you mean well, home isn't a place for reasoning, especially given Lao Ning's current situation.

Sigh, everyone has their own reasons, and it's pointless to get involved. Just focus on doing your own job well.

Qiao Jie felt sorry for his granddaughter. "Tell me, this old Ning, when he got married, you could see how unhappy he was. In the end, he still has to rely on these two children. If he really relies on his son, just wait, he won't even know how he died."

"Girl, don't be impatient. We can't do anything about it now that we've run into them. As long as you protect yourself, help them if you can. After all, they are Haozi's grandparents."
