Zhao Chuchu was reborn in a time before the apocalypse. As soon as the space was filled with supplies, something fell from a high altitude and killed her. Then, she transmigrated, becoming a small villager in an unknown dynasty. She started this new life by taking out the natives, dealing with the plague, and becoming a divine doctor in one fell swoop. Using her fists, she gained high status. She bullied those scums until they cried for their mommy and begged for mercy. She produced large quantities of rice, beans, and sweet potatoes… She could do everything, and she earned a lot of money with that. Everyone watched as she reconciled with Xiao Xiucai. They watched until a baby was born, as well as until Xiao Xiucai became the top scholar and smoothly became the Chief Minister. Then, everyone waited for the day the Chief Minister would divorce his wife, who went through hardships in life with him. They waited and waited until the couple had grown old, the two living together for the rest of their lives.

The Chief Minister’s Ferocious Wife

Madam Kong kept quiet after she heard Zhao Chuchu say this.

Since the latter had made up her mind, Madam Kong saying any more would serve to get on her nerves.

Zhao Chuchu knew that Madam Kong and her daughters-in-law would be thrifty. Hence, she did not leave the kitchen when they were stir-frying the vegetables. She was afraid that Madam Kong would even skimp on the oil.

As expected, Madam Kong only used a little oil when stir-frying the vegetables.

Zhao Chuchu suspected that no trace of oil could be seen after the dish was ready.

"Use more oil. The vegetables won't taste nice without it," instructed Zhao Chuchu from the side.

Madam Kong poured a little bit more in.

"Put half of what you added just now."

"We must save oil. We usually eat it this way."

She could cook several meals with this amount of oil.
