Chapter 26: Don’t you know how to cook?

Looking at Meng Chuyuan's back as he left, the director patted his chest and took a deep breath. He turned around, picked up the uneaten roujiamo on the table, and sat down to continue eating.

Just at this moment, the director's cell phone suddenly rang. As he took out his phone, he complained: "Can't I eat my steamed buns anymore..."

When he saw the caller ID, a glint of joy flashed in the director's eyes. He immediately adjusted his state and swallowed the steamed bun in his mouth before answering the call.

"Hello, Director Luo. I'm from XX Video. We've been following your recent live variety show for a while and think it's a great fit for our platform. We sincerely invite you to add your show to our video app for joint broadcast. Are you interested in collaborating with us?"

The director was so happy after hearing this that he couldn't stop smiling. He immediately agreed: "Of course, it is my honor to cooperate with your company."

"Then we'll send the contract to your email later, and we can also communicate the details via email. Is that okay with you?"

"No problem." After hanging up the phone, the director still had a smile on his face. He turned to the colleague in charge of data statistics and said, "Xiao Zhao, report to me the live broadcast room data of each group today."

"Meng Chuyuan's group's live broadcast room currently leads in popularity, and the data fluctuations of the remaining two groups don't seem to be very large."

The director nodded slightly, as if he had known this would be the result.

After two days of observation, he found that although Qi Zhen and Liao Jiake are top stars, their two groups only know how to work blindly and have no innovative content. Even if they have their own traffic, it will be difficult to make a breakthrough if they continue like this for a long time.

Seeing the assistant director just walking over, Director Luo asked curiously, "What did Meng Chuyuan's team do today?"

"Going up the mountain to pick mushrooms, what's wrong?"

"Aside from picking mushrooms, do you do anything else?"

The assistant director nodded and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Picking hawthorns and picking pine cones, the excitement will come later, and I will also argue with you."

“…” When the director heard the last sentence, the only trace of smile on his face disappeared.

…

After Meng Chuyuan came back, she kept fiddling with the things she brought back from the mountains.

After picking the pine nuts, he sat down to wash the hawthorns.

Lu Jinsen went out for a while and came back with a bunch of branches.

[The young master is very self-conscious this time. He went to pick up branches as soon as he came back. Hahahaha]

[This young master has figured out his place. Congratulations to Sister Meng for getting such a loyal little brother.]

[Yes, a man who knows the times is a hero, I admire you]

[Hold on tight, and be sensible and follow Sister Meng so you won’t lack meat to eat hahahaha]

Lu Jinsen looked at his watch. It was almost twelve o'clock. Seeing Meng Chuyuan still washing her hawthorns, he couldn't help but walk over and ask, "When will you finish this?"

"What's wrong?" Meng Chuyuan looked up at him.

Lu Jinsen stretched out his hand, held his watch in front of her, and tapped the dial twice with his fingertips: "Look at what time it is now?"

"Can't you see it yourself?" Meng Chuyuan glanced at him and ignored him.

Lu Jinsen was forced to show a helpless expression. He frowned slightly and said calmly, "Can you put this thing aside and cook first?"

"I say, you are already an adult, can't you cook?"

Lu Jinsen said firmly: "No."

If he knew how to cook, he wouldn't have come to Meng Chuyuan.

"Brother, if you don't know how, just learn. Today I'll give you a chance to learn how to cook."

“…”

Lu Jinsen was called into the kitchen by Meng Chuyuan, who told him to wash the vegetables and dice the carrots.

Meng Chuyuan was responsible for cutting the mutton and putting it into a bowl, then adding some cooking wine, table salt and starch, mixing it well and letting it marinate.

She prepared everything she could, then turned to look at Lu Jinsen. Seeing that he had cut the carrots into strange shapes, she couldn't help but walk over and scold him: "I told you to dice them, what are you cutting them into?"

Lu Jinsen looked righteous and said coldly, "You didn't tell me what dicing is like."

"Give me the knife, go watch over there." Meng Chuyuan pushed him aside, picked up the kitchen knife and quickly cut a few times. The speed of his hands almost stunned Lu Jinsen.

"Have you learned it?" After putting down the kitchen knife, Meng Chuyuan turned his head to look at him, only to see that he nodded hesitantly.

After a while, Meng Chuyuan asked him to fry two eggs, but they were burnt when they came out of the pan. When the camera gave a close-up, it was obvious that there were eggshells stuck inside.

"That's amazing! You can even fry two eggs like this."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Lu Jinsen's eyes. He tried to save his dignity: "Maybe it tastes okay."

Meng Chuyuan clicked his tongue twice and said disdainfully, "Who gave you this confidence?"

【I’ve given up on studying, I’ve given up on studying, hahaha】

Lu Jinsen said: My eyes seem to be able to do it, but my hands can’t.

[My family laughed at me, he really can’t do it]

I didn’t dare laugh because I was like this when I first started frying eggs 0_0, and there was even shell inside the yolk.

[Their dialogue is so intense, I can watch it for a year]

Meng Chuyuan cleaned the pan where she had fried the eggs, then called Lu Jinsen back: "I'll teach you how to make a hard dish, stir-fried lamb."

Although Lu Jinsen didn't know how to cook at all, he was willing to learn from Meng Chuyuan now.

Lu Jinsen walked towards her and humbly asked for advice: "How to do it?"

Meng Chuyuan: "Pour oil into the pot first, you can add a little more."

After the oil was heated, Meng Chuyuan told him to add the prepared seasonings such as onion, ginger, and garlic, and then stir-fry. Then he added the mutton and stir-fried it together...

"Almost done, let's get it out of the pot and put it on a plate."

Under her personal guidance, Lu Jinsen completed the stir-fried lamb dish.

The mutton just out of the pot is fragrant, the meat is fresh and delicious, and it should taste very good.

After making a dish of stir-fried lamb, Lu Jinsen unconsciously smiled. When he looked up at Meng Chuyuan, the word "seeking praise" was written directly on his face.

However, Meng Chuyuan chose to ignore it, pretending not to see it, and said to him calmly: "Bring the dishes out, and we can eat after I fry some carrots."

[I'm dying of laughter at Lu Jinsen's smug expression. Sister Meng just ignores him. Hahahaha]

[This is incredible. Ever since I watched this show, I've been laughing like a fool. My mom even thought I was crazy.]

[It seems that Sister Meng's turning a blind eye has caused deep harm to the young master, hahahaha]

[He pretended not to see anything, and his expression of begging for praise is just like my Wangcai]

Did Sister Meng stir-fry some carrots as a base? If she can’t finish it all, there’s another dish to eat.

[The young master is about to break down, break down his defenses, hahaha, I can’t wait any longer, let’s eat quickly, I want to see the young master’s cooking skills]

After a while, their dishes were finally served. The stir-fried lamb was firmly placed in the center, while the plate of burnt eggs was placed in an inconspicuous corner, with no one paying attention to it.

Lu Jinsen filled a bowl of rice, sat down, and couldn't wait to pick up a piece of mutton and stuff it directly into his mouth.
