Fu Wan nodded in agreement. It would be good to go to the hospital for a check-up; at least she wouldn't have to live in fear.
While she was talking to Wang Huiping, Jiang Chunlan and Ye Xiaocui were also talking non-stop.
Xiao Cui, have you heard? Wang Zhaodi and Old Lady Wang have completely fallen out!
"I heard, I heard. I heard from Sister Huang yesterday that their family had another fight the night before last..."
"That's right, Wang Zhaodi is a different person after she came back from the hospital. I heard she was beating up Old Lady Wang. Tsk, Fu Lao Er is really useless. He can't protect his wife, and he can't protect his mother either!"
Jiang Chunlan looked at him with disdain. She said that in the entire Fujia Village, there probably wasn't a man more cowardly than Fu Lao Er.
Ye Xiaocui frowned, and her hands, which were picking vegetables, stopped.
"That's strange. Why is Wang Zhaodi suddenly so fierce? I heard that a while ago, she was hit on the head by Old Lady Wang and got a big hole. It was Fu Shi who took her to the hospital."
Her voice lowered, "To be honest, I thought Wang Zhaodi wouldn't go back after being discharged from the hospital and would just live with Fu Shi. I didn't expect her to actually go back to that home."
Not only did he go home, he also got revenge on the old lady Wang for the time she beat him!
Jiang Chunlan nodded repeatedly; she couldn't understand Wang Zhaodi's actions either.
"You know what, I thought so too. Fu Shi is practically the only decent person in the Fu family, and he's about to start dating. If Wang Zhaodi really ends up with him, there's bound to be chaos in the future!"
"Putting everything else aside, if Wang Zhaodi goes there, Fu Lao Er will definitely follow. At that time, Fu Shi's letter of severing ties with them will be null and void..."
"Sigh, surely Wang Zhaodi didn't have a change of heart and let the talisman go, did she?"
Jiang Chunlan came to her senses and looked at Ye Xiaocui in bewilderment.
The two women had known Wang Zhaodi for most of their lives, so it was hard for them to believe that the woman had suddenly become normal.
Fu Wan listened with great interest. It seemed that the village was still as lively as ever while she was away!
"Ah Wan, what do you think about this?"
Jiang Chunlan was completely baffled, and turned around to grab Fu Wan, who was listening to the commotion.
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan put down the freshly washed Xi Shi Bei (a type of seafood dish).
"Ha, I'm more inclined to think Wang Zhaodi has gone mad."
"Are you crazy?!"
Jiang Chunlan shook her head decisively.
"That's definitely not it. I ran into her on the street yesterday, and she even greeted me. I was quite surprised!"
If it hadn't been a cloudy day yesterday, Jiang Chunlan would definitely have checked if the sun was rising in the west.
"The madness I'm talking about isn't real madness, but rather the resistance I'm taking in response to Old Lady Wang and Old Man Fu."
According to what you said, Old Lady Wang beat Wang Zhaodi before, and it even got to the point where she had to go to the hospital.
It's clear the beating was quite severe; he practically had a brush with death.
Fu Wan explained patiently.
"Once a person is in trouble, they can understand many things."
You can see that if she goes back with Fu Shi, she will definitely become a burden to him. Wang Zhaodi herself should be able to see that too.
She chose to return to Fu Lao Er's house, resorting to violence as a form of retaliation. If Old Lady Wang wanted to take action, she would too; ultimately, no one would have an easy time!
Upon hearing Fu Wan's words, Jiang Chunlan, Ye Xiaocui, and Wang Huiping, who was peeling garlic nearby, were all shocked. After a long while, they took a deep breath.
"Wow, I didn't expect Wang Zhaodi to have such courage."
"Oh, no wonder Fu Lao Er's face is bruised and swollen these past two days. It seems Wang Zhao Di didn't let him off the hook either!"
Sure enough, when people are pushed to a certain point, they can do anything.
Jiang Chunlan couldn't help but click her tongue. Fortunately, her mother-in-law died early, and she herself disdained being a troublesome mother-in-law. In her opinion, it was more important for the family to get along happily.
They didn't stop working even while they were talking.
The chicken that Jiang Chunlan brought had already been put into the stainless steel pot by Fu Wan. She added the two largest abalone after making decorative cuts, and also added some dried scallops that Ye Xiaocui had dried.
"Ah Wan, aren't we going to steam those blue crabs together?"
Ye Xiaocui was about to put the seafood that needed to be steamed into the large pot. She counted the seafood in the pot and found that there were not many blue crabs. When she turned her head, she found that Fu Wan had chopped all the remaining blue crabs into several pieces.
Fu Wan's hands kept moving. "I'm not steaming them anymore. There's already so much seafood to steam. I think these are all mud crabs, so they're best stir-fried with scallions and ginger!"
Ye Xiaocui didn't say much, but picked up the steamed crabs and looked at them. Sure enough, she found roe on the top of the shells on their bellies. It seemed that her daughter had carefully selected these crabs.
Steam the female crabs with lots of roe, and stir-fry the male crabs with less roe. This combination is perfect!
While steaming the seafood, they also placed a lot of large steamed buns made by Ye Xiaocui and Jiang Chunlan on the side. They also cooked some rice in a rice cooker, just in case there wasn't enough to eat.
After all, Ye Xiaocui had witnessed firsthand the appetites of Jack, Robert, and Tom.
The men in my family have big appetites, and since we're not short of food, we might as well cook more. We can't let anyone go hungry!
After Fu Wan chopped all the vegetables she was going to stir-fry, the soup in the stainless steel pot began to boil.
A rich aroma of chicken soup mixed with the umami of dried scallops wafted far and wide, making the neighbors in the vicinity swallow their saliva.
This is really bad! It's not a holiday or festival, so who's going to make chicken soup?
Could it be that you're not planning to live the rest of the days after today?
Some people followed the smell and found that it was chicken soup wafting from Old Master Fu's kitchen, so no one found it strange anymore.
It's normal for Master Fu to cook chicken soup.
My daughter and son have just returned from a long trip, they definitely need some nourishment.
Moreover, everyone knew that three foreigners had come to Fu Laoda's house. They greeted everyone they met in the village warmly, and most of the villagers were very fond of these three young men from abroad. Although they called them "foreign devils" with their mouths, many people had actually given them food.
They have everything from fruit-flavored candy cakes to homemade wild vegetable buns!
These three never refused anyone who came, and their pockets were always full every day when they came back.
Seeing that the steamed buns and seafood were ready, Ye Xiaocui and Jiang Chunlan busied themselves emptying the pot.
Fu Wan picked up a spatula to prepare to fry the blue crabs. First, she prepared a small bowl of flour and added some sweet potato starch. Then, she heated the oil in the pan, coated the cut side of the crabs with flour, and put them into the pan to fry.
The crabs that were put in quickly turned a tempting orange-red color, and at the same time, a strong crab aroma wafted out of the pot.
As soon as Fu Ming and his companions arrived at their doorstep with their fishing rods, the aroma made their stomachs rumble.
"Wow, this smells amazing! Let me guess, is it fried crab?"
Fu Ming strode into the kitchen, and upon seeing the golden crabs in the pot, he couldn't help but swallow hard.
It smells so good!
