Chapter 7: Show off your skills



"Comrade, would you like some eggs?"

Authentic free-range eggs.

Su He sold eggs in her previous life. Although the manufacturer marked them as free-range eggs, many fans reported that they were fake. She herself did not know whether they were free-range eggs or not. Today, when she saw real free-range eggs, she found that they were different from those sold before.

Authentic free-range eggs are smaller in size, have thicker shells, and have green eggshells inside.

"Uncle, I'll take all your eggs!"

Su He waved his hand and said, "If it tastes good, I'll come back to buy yours. Then you can give me a discount. How about that?"

"Okay! I'll weigh them for you right away." The old man selling eggs was delighted. He didn't expect Su He to want them all at once! It seemed that he could go home early after selling all the eggs today.

There are 10 kilograms of eggs here in total. Su He paid according to the market price of eggs in the 1980s:

Thirty cents per pound, ten pounds of eggs cost three yuan.

"You spendthrift woman! There are only two of us in the family. What's the point of buying so many eggs?!"

Su He was just about to go home with the eggs and come out again later. Now she was carrying eggs in one hand and apples in the other, so she couldn't carry any more things she wanted to buy.

When she turned around, she happened to run into her "acquaintance" Ye Lili, who glared at Su He with an ugly expression, jealous that the money she spent must have been given by Brother Lu.

"It's none of your business." Su He rolled his eyes at her and walked back.

Ye Lili was so angry behind Su He's back that her teeth were itching, but she couldn't do anything about it. Now Lu Yunzhou was protecting Su He.

"..." When Su He returned home, the first thing she did was to put the eggs in the kitchen. She found that the kitchen was empty and there was nothing in it.

There wasn't even the most basic rice, flour, grain, or oil, so Su He needed to go out and buy some.

As a popular internet celebrity with millions of fans, Su He feels so much pressure every day that he can hardly breathe, and even has to be hospitalized several times a year.

Later, the doctor suggested that Su He find a way to relieve stress, and she slowly began to enrich her private life after the broadcast.

Learning Sanda, flower arranging, cooking... Of course, the most important thing is that the food Lu Yunzhou brought back from the cafeteria didn't taste very good.

Su He went shopping for the second time and bought everything the family needed at once.

She was so tired that she sat on the stool and gasped for breath. After she caught her breath, she stood up and prepared to cook.

Su He suddenly thought that what she needed to do now was to maintain her account well, and shooting videos could also increase the number of fans.

[System, can I record a cooking video? Can I edit it and upload it as a short video?]

Since you can sell goods through live streaming, you can also post short videos on the account.

[Does the host need to unlock the next task? ]

The second task is to complete the second live broadcast within 7 days, and the third task is to publish a short video.

[Are there any conditions for unlocking it?] Su He asked tentatively.

[Due to the excellent performance of the host in completing the first mission, no conditions are required to unlock it.]

[Okay, let’s get started.]

Su He plans to cook a few of his signature dishes tonight.

Boil the local eggs you bought in advance, and then fry them with lard. The outer layer of egg white is fried crispy and charred, then serve and set aside.

Cut the pork belly into pieces, stir-fry in hot oil, add various seasonings, and finally add water to cover the pork belly. Add firewood under the iron pan and start stewing.

After a while, the mouth-watering aroma of meat slowly drifted out from the courtyard.

Lu Yunzhou and his companions, who had just finished training at the military district and were returning to the compound, also smelled the aroma of meat.

"Whose family is cooking meat tonight?"

"It must be my sister." Ye Qingsong laughed, his eyes falling on Lu Yunzhou vaguely, "My sister's cooking skills are well-known in our compound!"

"Hey? How about we go to your house tonight and have a few drinks?"

Ye Qingsong waved his hand generously, "Okay! No problem, let's all go to my house for a drink today, and we won't leave until we're drunk."

Lu Yunzhou didn't say anything.

Ye Qingsong put his arm around Lu Yunzhou's shoulders and said, "Yunzhou, although you can't be my brother-in-law, we are still brothers. Call your wife over tonight so that she doesn't have to cook for herself at home."

"I'm going home to eat today." Lu Yunzhou pushed Ye Qingsong's arm away unnoticeably, his voice light.

"What? You rejected my girl, and I didn't say anything. Why are you so arrogant?"

Ye Qingsong finally expressed his dissatisfaction in a half-joking tone.

Last night his sister came back crying, and when he asked her he found out that Lu Yunzhou's wife had come to the military region.

Ye Qingsong was so angry! He knew that Lu Yunzhou had a wife, and subconsciously thought that Lu Yunzhou had no interest in this wife and would kick her out sooner or later.

That's why he indulged his sister in liking Lu Yunzhou. Now, everyone in the compound knows that his sister Ye Lili is a joke.

"Qingsong, Yunzhou didn't mean that."

"That's right, didn't we agree to go to your house for a drink? Let's not waste time, let's go."

"..." The brothers around him quickly changed the subject to avoid an argument between Ye Qingsong and Lu Yunzhou.

Lu Yunzhou's expression didn't change at all and he went straight home.

"Tsk~ What's so great about that? He's the leader, and I'm the leader too. All he does is put on airs in front of me all day long."

Ye Qingsong was really angry and spoke without restraint.

The others were just embarrassed and smiled, no one said anything.

There is a difference between a group leader and a group leader.

Ye Qingsong's weight as the leader of the group is not as important as Lu Yunzhou's.

Besides, Ye Qingsong was injured while completing a mission a few years ago, and it is impossible for him to be promoted in this life.

Lu Yunzhou is different...

He is already the head of a group at such a young age. I heard that at the beginning of this year, his superiors wanted to use him.

The future is bright.

Ye Qingsong has selfish motives when he likes Lu Yunzhou.

Everyone present knew it well.

When they entered the Ye family courtyard, the aroma of meat was much weaker. Logically, this shouldn't be the case.

Ye Lili saw her eldest brother coming back and opened her mouth to speak, but Ye Qingsong waved his hand and ordered her, "Serve the food! And fetch that jar of good wine from the cellar!"

"Brother, I'm not prepared today,"

Ye Lili said in confusion.

"Don't lie to me here. We smelled the aroma of meat as soon as we entered the military compound. If it wasn't you who did it, who else could it be?"

"We didn't buy meat today." Not only did they not buy meat today, they haven't bought meat this month. Ye Qingsong hasn't received his salary yet, so where would the money come from to buy meat?

The other few people were all smart people, and seeing this, they no longer mentioned drinking.

"Ye Tuan, I suddenly remembered that my wife asked me to go home for dinner tonight, so I won't drink with you guys."

"Me too……"

"And me."

Ye Qingsong lost face in front of his brothers.

Since it’s not his family that eats the meat, then whose family is it?

In the entire compound, the only people who could afford to eat meat, besides his family, was Lu Yunzhou?
