Soon, the two young masters and young ladies packed up their things and returned to the living room. Tao Pingfan was the only one left in the living room, wrapped in a blanket and playing with his cell phone.
Tao Pingfan heard the noise and turned around to see the two of them. Suddenly, she remembered what Zhao Mei had told her: "Well, Meili just told me to help after you finish cleaning up..."
Min Yuanliang was about to sit down when he heard this, and he was stuck in the middle. After thinking for a moment, he simply stood up and asked, "What can I do for you?"
"Help with the cooking, I guess."
Before Min Yuanliang could say anything, Luo Shuang started talking: "How can we cook? And why do we have to cook for a variety show?"
Min Yuanliang hadn't expected that the job he would be helping with was cooking: "I've never even been in the kitchen, how can I help?"
Tao Pingfan was not annoyed, but just pointed to the kitchen as Zhao Mei told her: "Meili said that if you don't help, you won't have anything to eat."
The two people standing there were silent for a while, looked at each other, sighed, and had to go to the kitchen.
The small kitchen was bustling with activity at this time. Apart from Qiao Qiudie and Xi Jia who were washing vegetables outside, Li Teng and He Xingwen who were helping to light the fire were all busy in the small room.
Min Yuanliang and Luo Shuang just stood outside the kitchen, looking inside with timidity.
From time to time, the sound of kitchen knives banging and the crackling of small flames could be heard from inside the door. The two men didn't dare to go in at all.
Zhao Mei was rinsing the pot with water and preparing to boil water. She caught sight of two dark figures at the door and turned around to call them in.
Compared to others who only dare to flatter and pamper them, Zhao Mei already knows that they have been restricted since they came here, so it would be a waste to not use the free work.
After all, although noodles with gravy are simple, it is cooked for eight people in total. When the quantity is large, even the simplest meal will only be relatively simple.
Looking at the two people in front of her with their eyes rolling and shivering, Zhao Mei directly took a stainless steel basin full of beans from the stove and handed it to Min Yuanliang who was standing in front of her.
"Go ahead. We don't ask much of you young masters and young ladies. Just pick these beans."
Min Yuanliang hurriedly hugged it. This pot of beans, which was enough to make stew for eight people, was not light at all, and he almost couldn't hold it.
After catching it, he steadied himself and then stared at the beans in a trance. He wanted to ask Luo Shuang behind him if she knew how to do it, but when he turned around, he saw her confused expression and had to give up. Just as he was about to ask, Zhao Mei in front of him spoke.
"Ah, you probably don't know how to do this, right? Don't worry, when you go out to the yard you'll see a beautiful woman washing vegetables. Go find her and she'll teach you."
After saying that, he didn't care whether they were willing or not, just waved his hand and drove the two of them out of the kitchen.
Zhao Mei saw the two of them standing still with confusion on their faces, and then she realized that they probably didn't even know how to pick vegetables.
But he was also very busy and hadn't even rolled the noodles yet. He thought for a moment and simply sent the two of them to find Qiao Qiudie.
After sending the two away, Zhao Mei continued to complain despite her busy work.
"Brother Wen, have you seen that? I haven't even seen beans. Damn capitalism."
He Xingwen also smiled and said: "When I was their age, I had already been helping out in the fields. How could I not know the difference between the five kinds of crops?"
Li Teng, on the other hand, was focusing on something different: "So how did those two uncles and princesses change their personalities? They're so obedient? Last time, they participated in a travel variety show with me, and the director was so angry that he called their parents."
Zhao Mei thought about it and decided to share this matter with everyone, otherwise she would be the one who would be tired in the end.
"Maybe it's because of my parents?"
"How do you say that?"
"Yesterday, as soon as the two of them entered the yard, I heard some noise. I leaned over to the window and heard some words. It sounded like Min Yuanliang's father was telling him to behave himself, or else his financial support would be cut off."
Li Teng's eyes widened. "Amazing, Zhao Mei, you heard it all. I was wondering why these two devils suddenly became obedient."
Zhao Mei was not arrogant: "No, I just heard it vaguely, and I don't think she looks that arrogant..."
Li Teng interrupted mid-sentence, "Don't say that. I still remember when our production team arrived in Shuicheng, and these two people couldn't sleep in the youth hostel and had to find a five-star hotel in the middle of the night."
"The problem is, it was already early in the morning, and Shuicheng is just a small, rural city abroad. How could there be a five-star hotel open in the wee hours?"
"We walked for two hours, almost all over the small city, and couldn't find another hotel that was open. Everyone told them to just wait one night and come back the next day, but they preferred to sleep on a bench rather than go back."
"But you know, who would dare to let them sleep on the bench? In the end, they had no choice but to pull the sleeping director out of his bed."
"The director was pretty pissed off, but after contacting their parents, they apologized sincerely and reimbursed their hotel bill, so we had no choice but to change their hotel."
Zhao Mei smacked her lips as she kneaded the dough. "That's probably because of the lesson you taught their parents that time, so it's strictly forbidden this time."
Li Teng shook his head, as if he couldn't bear the thought. "Maybe. We still have to go up the mountain to pick fruits tomorrow. I hope these two won't cause us any more trouble."
After the three of them finished talking, they continued to cook. However, before they were quiet for long, Zhao Mei heard a pair of hurried footsteps coming in.
When I looked up, it was Qiao Qiudie.
"Beautiful! I was just thinking of taking out the dishes I was going to use and washing them, but those two idiots outside scratched themselves."
Zhao Mei was not surprised at all, but she was still a little helpless. She had already chosen the simplest task to send out, but she didn't expect this to happen.
She had no choice but to take off her apron and go outside, where she found Min Yuanliang covering his hands with a pale face.
He quickly walked over, took his hand, looked at it, and asked, "What's going on?"
The wound was not deep, but it was quite long and looked quite scary. Zhao Mei looked up and saw that Luo Shuang was sobbing secretly out of fear. Although Min Yuanliang's face showed no expression, the redness of his eyes actually revealed his emotions.
Min Yuanliang glanced at the bleeding wound and quickly closed his eyes. "After I washed the beans, I saw an extra bowl in the sink and thought I needed to wash it, so I tried to rinse it. I didn't hold it firmly and it broke. I was so anxious that I tried to pick it up, and that's what happened."
Zhao Mei sighed inwardly. She didn't expect that it was almost the same as what she guessed. How should I put it? Having no common sense at all is considered amazing in a sense, right?
After hearing the whole story, Zhao Mei wanted to find the medical staff of the program team to deal with it, but at this time the program team was either editing the film or preparing for tomorrow's shooting. The medical staff were also checking with the team at the fruit tree and it would take some time for them to come over.
In the end, there was no choice but to get the medicine box from the house to bandage the delicate young master.
However, Zhao Mei's bandaging skills were really limited, so she could only tie a pig's trotter on the person to stop the bleeding and wait for medical help to arrive before taking further action.
