Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 72 Huai Di, that girl, is really pitiful now.

Li Ruru tapped his forehead, "Swearing isn't something a good kid does."

Chu Xiu looked unconvinced, but he didn't utter any more vulgarities.

All they asked was, "So what should we do? How do we make this colorful konjac tofu?"

Li Ruru smiled mysteriously, "I have a brilliant plan."

As for what brilliant plan she had in mind, she hadn't thought of it yet.

Actually, you can use food coloring agents; you can get any color you want.

Whether it's multicolored konjac or a patchwork of black, she can make it.

After eating too much food made with modern technology, Li Ruru gave up on the plan.

Even though it's a business, you can't go against your conscience and make sure your customers don't get sick from the food.

When it comes to doing business, Li Ruru is still a kind-hearted novice.

"Aru, I'm here." Just then, Pan Dayan's loud voice rang out from outside the door.

Her loud scream made Qiqi's fur stand on end.

Upon seeing that it was Pan Dayan, it sullenly lay back down in its nest and started playing with its tail.

Wang Tieniu and Wang Tiezhu carried several large buckets into the yard and put them down, then stood obediently to one side.

Pan Dayan's mouth hasn't stopped talking since she entered the room.

Peipei brought over a plate of melon seeds, Chaochao washed a bunch of grapes, and Yinyin put a butterfly hairpin in Pan Dayan's hair.

Pan Dayan wore a butterfly hairpin, held melon seeds in her hand, and kept talking.

“Aru, you have no idea how chaotic your ex-mother-in-law’s house is every day.”

Once she starts talking, she can't stop.

After Chen Sanbao and Zhang Junniang got married, the two spent several days cuddling in bed together.

Standing at the door, Zhao cursed, "Third son's wife, you vixen! You're always bothering my son, how can his body take it?"

Zhang Junniang didn't speak, but Chen Sanbao angrily cursed, "Mother, you're meddling in everything, even things in my room!"

Do you think your precious grandson is someone who can just fart and come out? You old fool with long hair and short brains.

Zhao was scolded by her own son, her face turned ugly, and her chest heaved violently.

She was angry, but not at her son; she blamed Zhang Junniang, calling her a vixen.

"Third brother's wife, I'm standing right in front of your window. Hurry up and come out to cook, there's a ton of stuff to do at home."

Zhao didn't believe that Zhang Junniang knew she was at the window and could stay inside the house any longer.

But she still didn't quite understand Zhang Junniang, and the other woman completely ignored her.

Seeing that the situation was about to escalate, Wang Shuixia quickly pushed her two sons out the door.

"Go, go, go outside and play."

Pan Dayan laughed heartily as she spoke, and Li Ruru coughed twice, "The children are all here."

Pan Dayan realized that the topic was indeed inappropriate for children, so she immediately changed the subject and brought up Chen Huaidi again.

As the only maid in the family, the swindler Chen Huaidi's status plummeted from heaven to hell after the four members of Chaochao left.

Originally, all the dirty and tiring chores at home were done by Li Ruru and her three daughters. Now that they've left, everyone else is making excuses and refusing to do any work.

Zhao then handed over all the work to Chen Huaidi.

At just 10 years old, she had to cook, do laundry, fetch water, sweep the floor, chop firewood, cut grass, and feed the chickens every day.

She was busy with a ton of things, spinning like a top.

Chen Huaidi deeply regretted her actions, regretting that she had joined her family in bullying Li Ruru and her daughter.

She used to be able to eat eggs, but now it seems that her grandmother doesn't even want to give her wild vegetable porridge anymore.

These past few days, Chen Huaidi has been cooking while also enduring the noise from Chen Sanbao and Zhang Junniang. Her face flushed red, and she helplessly wiped away her tears.

"That girl Huai Di is really pitiful now," Pan Dayan said with a sigh as she ate sunflower seeds.

Li Ruru smiled without saying a word, while Peipei said coldly, "She deserved it. She used to beat me. She broke a bowl and then framed me, causing me to be beaten by Grandma... by Granny Zhao."

Chaochao picked up the melon seeds on the table and was about to go inside when Yinyin pulled the butterfly hairpin that had been in Pan Dayan's hair back into place.

"Hey, what are you doing? I haven't finished eating yet." Pan Dayan finally managed to snatch back the sunflower seeds.

Realizing she had said the wrong thing, she chuckled awkwardly, "Hehe, Huai Di deserves it, huh?"

Pan Dayan was just saying it casually, but thinking about it carefully, Huai Di really isn't a good person.

"Auntie, you may not know, but my Peipei almost lost her life because of her."

Li Ruru sighed, and Pan Dayan patted her on the shoulder, "I know, everyone in the village knows."

Peipei had a persistent high fever and cough, but Chen Huaidi mischievously poured a basin of cold water on her head.

It was winter, and Pepe almost died.

Chen Liang had already told Li Ruru to prepare for her funeral, but the original owner of the body still held Peipei and used her own body to keep her warm.

Perhaps her actions moved the heavens, because in the end, Peipei's fever subsided and she survived.

"Let's not talk about these unhappy things anymore, Aunt Pan. Do you have any ideas on how to make konjac tofu in multiple colors?"

"Konjac tofu? In multiple colors?" Pan Dayan thought she was joking, but seeing Li Ruru's serious expression, she tilted her head and thought about it carefully.

"Spinach juice should be able to give it a green color, that's how spinach noodles are made."

To make spinach noodles, you cook the spinach, then use the juice extracted from it to make the dough, which results in green noodles.

"Wow, Aunt Pan is so clever!" Li Ruru suddenly had a breakthrough in her thinking.

She had been thinking about not using chemical dyes, but why didn't she think of using natural plant dyes?

She patted her head. "Amaranth can be dyed red."

When amaranth is cooked, the water in the pot turns red, which also serves as a natural fuel.

Peipei's mind was also opened, and she asked happily, "Mom, mulberries can be dyed purple, right?"

"Auntie, can oranges be dyed yellow? Pumpkins and corn should work too, right?" Chu Xiu asked.

Li Ruru smiled and said, "Mulberries and oranges are both fine, but you have to go up the mountain to pick mulberries. We don't have oranges at home, and corn isn't in season yet, so pumpkin will do."

"I'm going to pick mulberries." Xiao Yishan, carrying a basket on his back, silently prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute." Li Ruru went back to her room and retrieved a fine bow and arrow. "This is for you."

"Auntie, when did you buy this?" Xiao Yishan asked, somewhat shocked.

"Don't worry about that. If you're going up the mountain, see if you can catch any pheasants or ducks to have some fun with."

Upon hearing that he could eat meat, Chu Xiu's eyes lit up. "Brother Xiao, take me with you!"

Xiao Yishan knew that even if he didn't agree, this person would still follow him shamelessly, so he nodded helplessly.

Li Ruru handed Qiqi's chain to Xiao Wu, saying, "You take Qiqi with you."

With Qiqi around, it's safer. Maybe it can even help catch a rabbit or something.

After the three men left, Pan Dayan had almost finished telling her gossip.

She looked at the two basins of konjac juice and said with a contented expression, "Aru, I don't know what's going on these past two days, but the amount of konjac we can harvest is getting smaller and smaller."

The village head's sons didn't manage to dig up many.

Only after she said that did Li Ruru realize that Pan Dayan had only brought two basins of konjac juice today.

There are usually at least four or five pots.

Her face darkened. Those two basins of konjac juice could probably only make two buckets of konjac tofu.

She ordered 7 barrels tomorrow, but what should she do if she can't deliver them?
