Director Jiang nodded calmly, "I know. So, Ge Ling must finish cleaning with you. She can't run off to play halfway through and not clean anymore."

Upon hearing this, Ge Ling's face scrunched up as she recalled the smelly chicken coop that morning, filled with chicken droppings.

"Director Jiang, can't you make an exception?" Ge Zhi asked with a fawning smile.

“Teacher Ge, I’ve already been very lenient. I’ve let you pay on credit for so many days already. If I let you pay on credit any more, other families will follow suit, and then the tasks we arrange every day will be meaningless and there will be no point in watching them,” Director Jiang said.

Director Jiang was speaking from the heart.

He had no choice but to resort to this tactic because Zhuo Ranjun and the others were so obviously slacking off when doing tasks every day.

It's unfair to the other guests if Zhuo Ranjun and her group continue to slack off and run up debts.

Seeing that Ge Zhi and the others remained silent and looked very unwilling, Director Jiang said, "If you're not willing, you'll have to figure out how to handle your own lunch today. Anyway, I can't let you run up any more accounts."

"Fine, we'll clean the chicken coop then. Let us fill our stomachs first, so we'll have the energy to clean it this afternoon." Ge Zhi could only grit his teeth and agree.

Qin Yuanyao and the others had already returned to their rooms with a large amount of food.

Although Mr. Chi had already seen the house in a previous live stream, he still toured it as if it were his first time there.

"This house is quite nice. To have a house like this in the village is considered quite good."

After touring the place with his hands behind his back, he turned around and saw Qin Yuanyao carrying ingredients about to enter the kitchen, so he strode over to her.

"what you do?"

Qin Yuanyao was completely confused. "Get ready to cook?"

"I'll cook lunch," said Grandpa Chi.

"Great-grandfather, you can cook?" Chi Nao asked in surprise.

"Yes, I can." Old Master Chi's face showed no lack of pride. "But we have a chef at home, and my cooking isn't as good as his, so I rarely cook. Today is a good day for me to show off my skills!"

"Great! Great!" Chi Nai Chef clapped her hands enthusiastically. "Looking forward to Great-Grandpa's cooking!"

"Baiyi, come and help me. I know Qin Yuanyao usually does most of the cooking, so let her rest today," Grandpa Chi said to Chi Baiyi.

“Okay.” Chi Baiyi agreed without complaint.

Grandpa Chi is such a kind person, and he's so good to Yao Yao.

[Actually, although Yao Yao usually cooks a lot, Mr. Chi usually helps out, so it's a division of labor. But Mr. Chi still remembers Yao Yao's good deeds and doesn't think that Yao Yao doesn't work hard, unlike some people who might think that Yao Yao doesn't work hard.]

Yes, this is the magnanimity of a broad-minded person.

At the same time, Cao Feiyue and the others returned to their rooms.

Yuan Zi is the one who cooks at home, so when she came here, she naturally took over the cooking duties.

Seeing this, Cao Feiyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Normally, she and Xing Yu take turns cooking, one meal at a time.

They had both taken some cooking lessons on the spot to prepare for the show. So what they made wasn't bad, but it wasn't particularly delicious either.

With Yuan Zi here today, they're probably going to be able to have a really good meal.

"Aunt Yuan, let me help you pick the vegetables." Xing Yu followed Yuan Zi into the kitchen and started helping out.

"Oh dear, I can't accept this." Yuan Zi said this, but pointed to the cabbage with her hand, "If it's convenient for you, could you tear the cabbage and wash it for me?"

"Okay," Xing Yu replied.

Cao Feiyue didn't want to lend a hand; she just wanted to sit and wait for her meal.

Xing Yu went into the kitchen to help. If she didn't go to help, she would be giving the haters an opportunity to criticize her.

So Cao Feiyue could only smile and go into the kitchen to say to Yuan Zi, "Auntie, I'll help you too."

"Oh dear, this... I'm so sorry." Yuan Zi said, and then instructed, "Then wash the ribs and blanch them. I'll make braised ribs in a bit."

Yuan Zi listened, her heart sinking.

Why did you only ask Xing Yu to tear cabbage, but make her wash ribs and blanch them, doing such complicated and oily work?

Even though Cao Feiyue was dissatisfied, she could only smile and agree on the surface.

"good."

[Qi Tian's mother seems to be favoring one person over another. Why give Xing Yu such an easy job while making Yue Yue wash ribs when both are doing chores?]

[Listening to Qi Tian's mother say "How can I accept this?" and then immediately start ordering others around, it's so fake and annoying to watch.]

[As you said upstairs, if it's all the same work, why is there a difference between easy and difficult?]

Cao Feiyue complained about washing the ribs, and she said she wouldn't eat them later. If she just said she wouldn't eat ribs, I don't think anyone would insist she wash them.

Why didn't your partner have so many complaints while we were eating?!

[It was your own mother who offered to help out, and what's wrong with Qi Tian's mother just being polite? Do you really expect to do nothing and just wait for Qi Tian's mother to cook and serve the food?]

Meanwhile, on Feng Wenhe's side...

After carrying the large pile of vegetables back to the house by herself, Wu Ningwei went into the kitchen and started working on it all by herself.

When it comes to cooking, Feng Wenhe has always waited for the food to be ready and served, never offering to lend a hand. Therefore, he was no different today.

Shi Hefen held Feng Xuan and asked him all sorts of questions, feeling that Feng Xuan had suffered a lot on the show these past few days and felt extremely sorry for him.

Feng Xuan didn't really want to talk to his grandmother; he just wanted to play with his toys quietly.

After asking Feng Xuan her questions, Shi Hefen kissed Feng Xuan a few more times on the cheek before letting him go.

Shofen stood up and glanced at the half-finished braided bracelet on the table.

These days, Wu Ningwei often braids bracelets at home. Therefore, when Shi Hefen saw the bracelets, she guessed that they were most likely braided by Wu Ningwei.

But she still confirmed with Feng Wenhe.

"Did Ningwei write this?"

"Hmm," Feng Wenhe replied absentmindedly, engrossed in her phone.

Shih-fen was somewhat displeased. "She even braided bracelets on the show. Are you all that bored?"

"It's alright," Feng Wenhe replied dismissively.

Shih Ho-fen disliked Wu Ning-wei's compilation of these things.

She thought these bracelets were cheap and ugly, just a few red threads braided into various shapes, without any valuable gold on them.

Their daughter-in-law, the Feng family's daughter-in-law, is not short of money, so how could she make such a cheap bracelet!

Whatever she does is far more noble than braiding bracelets!

While playing with his toys, Feng Xuan overheard his father and grandmother's conversation and deliberately embellished the story, saying, "Mom braids bracelets whenever she has free time! She doesn't even go grocery shopping, she makes Dad do it! I asked her to make me peach jam milk, but she didn't want to! Dad had to tell her off before she finally did it!"

[Holy crap! Who is Feng Xuan's son? Is he really Sister Wu's son?!]

I really wanted to rush in and slap Feng Xuan a few times! How could he slander his mother like that!
