The three nodded to express their gratitude. Fu Xiaoxiao said: Ranran, I see your box is big enough. Manman and I will take out some food and put it in your box. It will be convenient to carry it when cooking. Is that okay with you?

An Ran looked at the box, nodded in agreement and said: You guys put it there, you guys cook, whatever is convenient for you. Then she took out the pheasant eggs she had picked up, handed them to her and said: These are the pheasant eggs I just picked up, you guys can do whatever you want with them.

Fu Xiaoxiao said: Oh, Ranran, you are so awesome. We will change it for you, or give you money. You can’t eat it for free.

An Ran shook her head and said: No need, my cooking is not delicious, you guys are responsible for cooking, it will save me trouble, and I don’t have to ruin my stomach. In the end, you are the one who suffers, don’t be so calculating, cook, I’m hungry.

The two of them didn't bother to be pretentious. They prepared the food, put it in the cupboard, picked up the eggs and food and started cooking.

Anran picked up the mushroom and came to Qin Fang and asked: Sister Fang, when I went up the mountain today, I saw a mushroom. I don’t know if it is edible. Can you help me take a look?

Qin Fang took the mushroom, looked at it carefully and said: This is a tree mushroom, it is edible, usually they grow in large clumps. If you only see this one, it must be the one that was picked by someone else and left behind.

After handing it to An Ran, he continued: You can remember the location and check it out frequently. This kind of mushroom grows fast and tastes good. Just pick it up when it appears again.

An Ran said: I understand, thank you Sister Fang. Qin Fang waved her hand to indicate that it was okay.

Anran returned to her kitchen and looked at the food on the table. She felt very hungry and thought it looked delicious.

Chen Manman said: Let's sit down and eat. Ranran, you can try my and Xiaoxiao's cooking. She took the unused chopsticks, picked up a large piece of egg and put it into her bowl.

An Ran didn't hesitate and started eating. Then she nodded and said: It's delicious. Your cooking skills are really good.

Tang Lin also said: It is very delicious, with good color, aroma and taste, not bad, and gave a thumbs up.

Cao Mo also nodded in agreement and ate his meal with big mouthfuls.

While things were bustling here, things weren't quite so harmonious with the old educated youth. It was Li Mengyao's turn to cook, and everyone waited and waited until An Ran and the others had already started eating. There was still no movement from Li Mengyao, and Liu Zhaodi couldn't help but run to the kitchen to see. Li Mengyao was dawdling, the water hadn't even boiled, let alone the rice, which didn't even look cooked.

Liu Zhaodi was so angry that she stood at the kitchen door and started scolding Li Mengyao. She didn't dare to provoke An Ran and the others again, but she was not afraid of Li Mengyao. She could also see that An Ran and the others didn't like Li Mengyao and Luo Jun.

What's more, Li Mengyao was in the wrong, which made Liu Zhaodi unscrupulous and cursed: "Li Mengyao, are you useless? It's been so long, and the pot hasn't even boiled. I told you what you've been doing all day and how you've been doing it. Although you're resting, we agreed last night that you would cook today. We've been off work for most of the day, and you haven't even boiled the pot. Are you dead?"

Li Mengyao showed her white lotus skills again and said tearfully: Comrade Liu, I am not very skilled in cooking, I didn’t mean it, you don’t have to say such harsh words!

Luo Jun also jumped out and acted as a flower protector and said: Liu Zhiqing, Comrade Li is not experienced, and we are new here, so it is understandable that we are slow in working. There is no need for you to speak so harshly.

Wang Zhaodi also joined in, but not to help Li Mengyao, but to help Liu Zhaodi. She said to Luo Jun: Comrade Luo, Comrade Liu's words were unpleasant, but Comrade Li did not have to go to work today, and he promised her to cook today. At noon, the meal was prepared like that, and we didn't say anything.

But when it came time to make dinner, she knew she wasn't very good at it, and since she didn't have to work today, wouldn't she have practiced ahead of time and made dinner earlier? We've been back an hour, and Comrade Chen and the others have finished eating, but Comrade Li hasn't finished yet. Comrade Luo, do you think this is appropriate?

The other veteran educated youth didn't help Li Mengyao either. They all stood behind Liu Zhaodi, and although they didn't say anything, their agreement was clear. They'd been working all day, and it had been almost an hour since they'd returned, and the meal wasn't ready yet. They'd been hungry all day. How could they not have objections?

An Ran and the others ate while watching the show, and they were all glad that they didn't eat with them, otherwise there would be small conflicts every day.

Li Mengyao cried and said: I felt a little uncomfortable in the afternoon, so I came out late. It really didn’t mean to do that. I’m sorry everyone.

Luo Jun was already being scolded by Wang Zhaodi, but when he saw Li Mengyao's expression, he said, "She's just not feeling well, that's why she's like this. She didn't mean it. Why are you two doing this?" Besides, she's cooking alone. You can help her if you have time, but you can't let her do it all by herself, right?

Fu Xiaoxiao whispered: Do you feel that there seems to be something wrong with Luo Jun? Isn't he afraid of getting beaten for talking like that?

After hearing what she said, everyone present felt that she was right. It was Li Mengyao's fault in the first place, but she was still making excuses and blaming the old educated youth for not helping. What kind of person is this if not crazy?

As expected, after Luo Jun finished speaking, Liu Zhaodi was completely furious. She pointed at Luo Jun and cursed: "Are you blind or sick? She said she would cook today, but the first two meals were a mess. She didn't cook dinner early, leaving us hungry and asking us to help with a day's work. How can you be so shameless? You also had a day off. You are so caring. Why didn't you come out to help her cook? Now you jump out and pretend to be a good person. Why do you like her? Don't you look at the virtue of your appearance? You are thick as a cylinder but not tall. Without the neck, it's all waist. What do they like about you? Do they like you because you are ugly? Don't you look in the mirror when you have nothing to do? Don't you see what a shitty virtue you look like?"
