On the first day of the new employee's employment, a major event occurred in Zaoshu Village: the entire Cui family came to the Wang family's door, forcing them to divorce.

Time and again, it was obvious to everyone that Cui Hehua didn't want to continue her relationship with Wang Defa. She seized every opportunity to make a scene, all in an attempt to force the Wang family to divorce and release her.

Now that Wang Defa has broken the law, he might spend the rest of his life in prison. It would be a miracle if Cui Hehua was willing to wait for him.

For a time, some people felt that Cui was really ruthless and heartless, not as good as Fang Laosi's wife.

Some people think that Wang Defa will not recover in the future, and that Cui Hehua did not make a mistake by killing him in advance because she was thinking of herself.

Isn't it said that if a person doesn't look out for themselves, they'll be doomed?

However, Cui Hehua ultimately failed. Old Man Wang was so enraged by her that he fainted. Although the second and third sons of the Wang family didn't concern themselves with their affairs, they couldn't stand by and watch their father be bullied like this. So, they fought a fierce battle with the Cui family. Fueled by both old and new grudges, they fought with extreme ruthlessness.

In the end, the Wang family had the advantage in numbers. In this battle, the Cui family not only failed, but each of them was also injured and had to flee back to their own homes.

The village chief pretended not to know anything, and day after day, he was always causing trouble, which was infuriating.

Fang Youcai watched the whole spectacle and saw the two families, in-laws, tearing each other apart in a rare and intense conflict, which made him feel quite pleased.

His nemesis is unhappy, and that makes him happy!

Cui Hehua desperately tried to seduce Wang Defa, even at the cost of her reputation, but in the end, she lost everything. She must be so regretful and unable to sleep at night now.

Hahaha……

No matter how chaotic things are outside, it can't affect Fang Xiaoning's pace.

After the autumn harvest, the season for cold noodles and cold rice noodles will come to an end. The shop is rented out on an annual basis, and although she won't lose money, she doesn't plan to leave it empty.

What goes best with winter? Hot and spicy hot pot, of course!

She doesn't plan to make hot pot; she'll consider that when she has more power and influence. For now, what she has is enough to make a living. So, in her shop, she plans to make inexpensive snacks that everyone loves: spicy hot pot.

Our main strategy is low profit margins and high sales volume!

Lately, she's been trying to make hot pot bases. The base for mala tang (a type of spicy hot pot) is quite similar to that of hot pot.

For the bone broth base, blanch the bones in cold water, rinse off the blood foam, and bring to a boil over high heat. Add a little lard and simmer the broth until it turns milky white.

Sauté scallions, ginger, and garlic until fragrant, then add Sichuan peppercorns, bay leaves, star anise, cinnamon, and fermented bean paste and stir-fry. Add dried chili peppers and continue to stir-fry and simmer until the kitchen is filled with aroma. For a better color, add chili powder at the end.

After the soup base is cooked, the prepared meat and vegetables are thrown into the pot. In the past few days, she has been experimenting with the ratio of seasonings, so she eats big pot dishes almost every meal.

"It's time to eat!"

"It smells so good! Did your sister-in-law make mala tang again today?"

Although we eat it every day, no one gets tired of it. It has meat and vegetables, and the soup base is delicious—how could anyone get tired of it?

Song An sniffed; the aroma told him it was already delicious. He couldn't understand why his sister-in-law was still dissatisfied and kept making it again and again.

However, each time, they felt that the taste seemed to be even better than before.

Fang Xiaoning thought that she had to get the results quickly, because she couldn't let everyone eat spicy hot pot every day anymore, it was too heaty.

"Sister-in-law, is it mala tang again today?"

"Yes, are you tired of it?"

"How can something be so delicious? I could eat it every day and never get tired of it."

Fang Xiaoning smiled. Song An's personality has changed a lot. Now he dares to go out and is not so self-conscious anymore.

He can play with the other children. Of course, because everyone intentionally lets him have his way, the village children have been disciplined by their parents.

Sigh, I wonder what it will be like after leaving Zaoshu Village.

Su was eating spicy hot pot, which was really good with rice. It was simple to make, but the flavor was addictive. She just didn't know why her daughter-in-law was dissatisfied and kept making it again and again…

"Xiao Ning, I think what I made today is already very, very delicious."

Everyone nodded in agreement; it was fresh, spicy, and addictive, and once you started eating it, you couldn't stop.

Fang Xiaoning couldn't eat spicy food because she was breastfeeding, so she only took a few bites. "This is the taste! Mom, Brother Feng, how about we sell these in the shop when it gets cooler? We can string them all together and sell them, vegetarian and meat."

"Sure, when it's cold, I just want something hot. This is hot and spicy, and it tastes delicious. Look at everyone, who doesn't love it?"

Song Feng agreed, and kept cooking it. The aroma could be smelled from afar. "Alright, we'll sell this when it's cold. We'll wait until after the autumn harvest."

After the autumn harvest, it seems like we're very busy. We need to collect firewood, mushrooms, hawthorns, acorns, and make all sorts of food.

More and more people are coming, and their house seems a bit small now; they'll build a bigger one next year.
