Chapter 33: Suspicion

Mrs. Chu had no idea Su Yunjin was going to make a dish with Houttuynia Cordata and pig's blood, and she said with a laugh, blocking her way, "Sister-in-law, you should tend to the fire, and I'll stir-fry the vegetables!"

Tending to the fire was relatively easier compared to stir-frying, and Su Yunjin knew Mrs. Chu meant well, thinking she was frail, which was why she insisted on cooking. Su Yunjin appreciated Mrs. Chu's kindness, but she knew she had to be the one to cook.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to prepare a dish that you probably won't know how to make, so I should be the one to do it!" Su Yunjin said, pointing at the pig's blood set aside in a wooden basin and the already cleaned Houttuynia Cordata she had gathered from the grove.
