Chapter 256: Other People's Brother

Faced with unfamiliar and complicated camping equipment, the guests all felt like they didn't know where to start.

"How do I put this together?" Xu Huanning held the tent pole in his hand and turned to look at the staff beside him, trying to get help from the program crew.

After hearing this, the staff shook their heads at her.

Xu Huanning glanced at the staff member, a hint of doubt in her eyes: "Didn't you just take it?"

Staff: “You need to do this yourself.”

After asking for help to no avail, Xu Huanning lamented like a deflated ball, "Okay."

Seeing that everyone was slow to get started, the director couldn't help but step forward to remind them: "Please hurry up, everyone, because you still need to find ingredients to cook later."

Liao Jiake: "Ah? So we need to prepare the ingredients for lunch later?"

Director: "Yes, our production team will not provide any food for the next few days. Everyone needs to be self-sufficient."

Meng Chuyuan frowned slightly and asked a key question: "Is there any chance that our funds will increase?"

"Yes, we will have everyone complete tasks and activities, and you will receive corresponding labor remuneration based on your ranking."

Everyone: “…”

[Ahahahahaha, luckily Sister Meng just ate her fill, otherwise I would have been starving.]

[This is a bit too much. They spent a lot of money on renting the equipment, and now the guests have to buy the ingredients themselves, hahahaha]

[Sister Meng’s inner thoughts: It doesn’t matter, I’m already full, and there’s still enough left for another meal, so I shouldn’t be hungry today.]

[But I think camping should be self-sufficient, that's what makes it fun]

Perhaps the director's words made the other guests feel pressured, and the situation suddenly became like being forced into a situation, and everyone began to study how to set up the tent.

Both teams rented two tents, one for boys and one for girls.

Large tents have more frames and are more complicated to set up. If you are not careful, mistakes may occur.

The three girls on Liao Jiake's side were setting up a large tent at the same time, leaving Qi Zhen to tidy up his own tent.

Why doesn’t anyone buy an inflatable tent? I think that’s easier.

[Because the price of inflatable tents is more expensive than ordinary tents, they don’t have that much money hahahaha]

[I think Qi Zhen's side is hilarious, hahaha. He's playing with a pole by himself, and no one comes to help him. I suddenly feel a little sympathetic to this little brother.]

Seeing Qi Zhen squatting alone on the side, working for a long time without any efficiency, this kind of division of labor was quickly eliminated by Meng Chuyuan and others.

"Let's go together."

"First prop up the pole, then pass it through the hole." Meng Chuyuan took the tent pole and put it together.

Liao Jiayan: "Okay."

Meng Chuyuan's group chose to set up the girls' tent first.

When they first started, their techniques seemed very unfamiliar and they had no special skills. They had to learn everything through practice, and if they made a mistake in the steps, they would correct it immediately.

However, Xu Huanning and his team did not seem to have much patience. After problems arose one after another, disputes began to arise within the team.

At first, the three of them tried to cooperate with each other, connecting the tent poles in an orderly manner and installing them on the tent cloth one by one. However, they found that the tent they built was not what they expected.

Liao Jiake noticed something was wrong with the tent and she immediately pointed it out: "No, it's set up the wrong way around. It should be like this..."

"Yunshu, the pole you're holding is wrong. It's supposed to support the top of the tent."

"Oh." Zhang Yunshu quickly put down the tent pole in her hand and replaced it with another one and handed it to Liao Jiake.

"Hey, that's not right..." Liao Jiake realized that her judgment was wrong and asked Zhang Yunshu to pass her the tent pole. "Bring the one you just used over here and let me see it."

Zhang Yunshu: "Okay, sister."

…

Liao Jiake kept on chattering, which made Xu Huanning, who had no construction skills, very unhappy. He even felt that Liao Jiake was a little noisy.

Seeing her ordering Zhang Yunshu around without any scruples, Xu Huanning really couldn't stand it anymore.

After Zhang Yunshu handed her the tent pole, Xu Huanning called her over directly.

"Sister Yunshu, come and help me hold the pole down."

"Okay." Zhang Yunshu did not show any reluctance when her two sisters took turns calling her to help, and her attitude was quite optimistic.

She went over to help Xu Huanning hold the poles and successfully built the frame of a tent.

On the other side, Liao Jiake also needs help.

"Yunshu, why did you leave? This place is still not done."

Zhang Yunshu heard someone calling her over there. Just as she was about to go over, Xu Huanning suddenly looked at Liao Jiake and said rudely, "Can you please stop giving orders? We've all never set up a tent before, so why are you pretending to be experts? Don't you know how many times you've made mistakes?"

"..." Liao Jiake was suddenly dazed by the retort. She looked at Xu Huanning innocently, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

[Holy crap! Is Xu Huanning that famous now? How dare she talk to Liao Jiake like that?]

[This doesn't seem to have anything to do with status... Liao Jiake's behavior just now was quite annoying. She couldn't even set up a tent, but she acted like she knew how to do it.]

[I really can't blame Xu Huanning for getting angry. If it were me, I would also hate it when someone keeps talking around me while I'm working. It's like they're disrupting me and it really affects my mood.]

[Is there no one who has any sympathy for our sister Yunshu? She is so sensible that it makes us feel distressed. Both sides just asked her for help, and she didn't refuse.]

Xu Huanning was furious at the moment and she couldn't care less. After she finished scolding him, she felt better and continued to set up the tent.

Zhang Yunshu stood there feeling a little at a loss, wishing she could lower her head and find a hole to crawl into.

…

It took Meng Chuyuan and his team nearly half an hour to set up one tent. With the experience they had gained, it didn't require four people to set up the remaining small tents.

"Two people should be able to set up this tent, right? Then send two people to find ingredients for lunch." Meng Chuyuan glanced at the three of them and asked, "Who wants to stay and set up the tent, set up the tables and chairs, and organize the pots and pans?"

"I'll set up the tent." The remaining tent belonged to Lu Jinsen, and he should stay.

Qi Yan cleared her throat and said awkwardly, "Let me help him."

Their area was a camping site, which was some distance away from the village. Qi Yan didn't want to go out with them, so she took the initiative to ask to stay.

[Oh wow!! Miss Qi's performance today was quite surprising.]

[Has Qi Yan forgotten that she has a younger brother? Qi Zhen is ignored over there, but her biological sister is helping other people's brothers... I suddenly want to interview Qi Zhen. What is he feeling at this moment?]

[This comment is in reply to the above post: You don’t understand this, other people’s younger brothers are more attractive.]
