Chapter 417 Steamed Egg Custard, Good Relationships
Ji Xinghan asked curiously, "Who are you?"
Anonymous: "Don't worry about it, I'm going. I'll definitely be able to help you deal with Zhao Qingyuan."
Ji Xinghan: "But I don't know you, how can I trust you?"
She did remember this person; he had appeared twice in the chat channel, specifically looking for trouble with Zhao Qingyuan.
To be honest, she really wanted to bring him along.
Anonymous: "I'll give you a pure gold rope, which can kill an NPC. I'll also give you two cards: Obedient and Dumbfounded."
[Compliance: Makes players obedient; duration: 1 minute!]
[Stunned: Can freeze a player or NPC in place for an unpredictable time; a useful escape tool.]
Ji Xinghan's eyes lit up; this person had given her quite a few treasures.
No problem, deal!
[Anonymous gift: 1 Plain Gold Rope, 1 Obedient, 1 Stunned!]
Ji Xinghan added Anonymous to the team.
An hour passed quickly.
[You will be entering the wedding instance in 5 minutes. Please bring your companions!]
[You will enter the wedding instance in 3 minutes...]
[You will enter the wedding instance in 10 seconds...]
Suddenly, Ji Xinghan felt dizzy.
I actually fainted.
After an unknown amount of time, her arm suddenly ached, and a rough, hoarse voice cursed, "You brat, hurry up and make the soup! The guests are waiting for the food!"
Ji Xinghan opened his eyes.
A stout middle-aged woman appeared before them. She had a round face, a double chin, was very fat, had exposed arms, and wide-open eyes.
He cursed, "What time is it? You still dare to sleep? The bride is already inside!"
bride?
Ji Xinghan stood up and was surprised to find that she was dressed as a maid and holding a fire poker.
Next to it was a large pot, inside which a thick, white liquid was bubbling.
Several pieces of firewood were stuffed into the stove under the pot, burning brightly.
The middle-aged woman yelled, "Hurry up and start a fire!"
Ji Xinghan looked at his clothes and stared blankly for a long time.
Is this role-playing?
She's here, but where are the others?
Ji Xinghan stood up and observed for a moment.
This must be the kitchen, with a dozen large pots steaming and many people busy at work. Some are cutting meat, some are washing and preparing vegetables, some are tending the fire, and some are serving the vegetables onto plates.
It's very lively.
Ji Xinghan looked carefully for a long time, but couldn't find a single familiar face.
Strange, about 300 people came in, where did they all go?
Ji Xinghan added some firewood, then quickly got up and walked out of the kitchen.
After taking only a few steps, suddenly, a woman picking vegetables stood up and called out, "Ji Xinghan, come here, help me pour out the water from washing the vegetables."
Just as Ji Xinghan was about to refuse, he suddenly heard a notification sound:
[Do you accept the task—help Chef Zhang pour out the water used to wash the vegetables?]
[Task Reward: A small bowl of steamed egg custard.]
Ji Xinghan: ? ? ?
Are these the side quests?
This is way too small!
However, based on my gaming experience, I don't think any task is too small.
She immediately agreed; "Okay!"
Cook Zhang immediately smiled and said, "Go ahead, go ahead, walk out of the kitchen, turn left, and pour the swill into the bucket."
Ji Xinghan agreed, picked up the basin of water, and walked out of the kitchen.
As Zhang the cook instructed, walk to the left, and soon you will see a large garbage bin, more than a dozen in total, lined up in a row.
She poured out the water.
On the way back, take the opportunity to observe the surroundings.
There are relatively few people here, only a few come occasionally, usually carrying vegetables or delivering something.
As she passed through a small alley, she glanced over and saw a burly, fat man carrying a shiny axe and a bundle of firewood, moving with incredible speed.
Hmm, this looks familiar!
Gold Million!
Ji Xinghan picked up the basin and chased after them.
Jin Baiwan ran incredibly fast, and Ji Xinghan finally caught up with him, patting him on the shoulder: "Old Jin!"
Jin Baiwan turned around and glanced at her, rolling his eyes: "What are you doing? Do I know you? Get out of the way, I have to deliver firewood!"
He swept past like the wind.
Ji Xinghan was stunned for a moment. Jin Baiwan looked at her as if she were a stranger.
Something's not right!
She immediately chased after him, calling out, "Jin Baiwan!"
"Yes, it's me. What's wrong? Don't delay my earnings for braised pork!" Jin Baiwan turned around and called out irritably.
But his feet never stopped.
Ji Xinghan pressed on, "Jin Baiwan, have you forgotten why we came here?"
"What's the purpose? Isn't it to eat meat?" Jin Baiwan moved like the wind, arrived in front of a woodpile, threw the firewood on it, and turned to run away.
Ji Xinghan had no choice but to continue the chase, saying, "Have you forgotten? Who am I?"
As Jin Baiwan ran, he said impatiently, "How would I know who you are? You're just an ordinary kitchen girl."
Oh no, Jin Baiwan doesn't recognize her!
Ji Xinghan stopped in his tracks.
They still use their original names, but they don't recognize each other anymore.
Unwilling to give up, she pressed for more questions and finally confirmed that Jin Baiwan was still called Jin Baiwan, but seemed to have forgotten everything.
All I knew was that I was carrying and chopping firewood.
Moreover, it felt like they were rushing to complete a task, constantly busy.
After delivering firewood five times, someone will give Jin Baiwan a small bowl of braised pork.
The bowl was very small, and there were only three pieces of braised pork inside.
After finishing his meal, Jin Baiwan was in high spirits and continued working.
Without stopping.
Ji Xinghan couldn't wake him up no matter what she did.
Ji Xinghan's heart sank.
What about the others? Will they stay clear-headed like her, or will they, like Jin Baiwan, navigate through missions?
She needs to have someone else verify it.
Ji Xinghan had only taken a few steps in that direction when Zhang the cook rushed over, angrily saying, "Ji Xinghan, I told you to pour water, why haven't you come back? Hurry back and start the fire, your soup is going to be ruined!"
Knowing that this was an NPC, Ji Xinghan dared not offend him and could only go back.
After completing the task, the cook was very satisfied and served her a bowl of steamed egg custard.
It's a very small bowl; you could probably finish it in two or three bites.
Steamed egg custard: Eat it! It will bring you good relationships with others!
Good interpersonal relationships steamed egg custard?
Ji Xinghan was skeptical, but finished the steamed egg custard in a few bites.
Congratulations! Your popularity has increased by 0.001 points!
Ji Xinghan: !!!
This is such a wonderful surprise!
No, she's here on a mission, mainly to complete the main quest and find the missing groom.
This is the newlywed scenario. She is currently in the kitchen, a place where information is scarce. She needs to move forward a bit.
She had just lifted her foot when Chef Zhang said, "Ji Xinghan, come here and pour out the water from washing the vegetables."
[Do you accept the task—help Chef Zhang pour out the water used to wash the vegetables?]
[Task Reward: A small bowl of steamed egg custard.]
Ji Xinghan immediately refused: "I won't accept!"
[Cook Zhang has a bit of a temper, you'd better not refuse!]
Ji Xinghan: "No!"
[Cook Zhang is incredibly strong; I advise you to listen to her!]
Ji Xinghan: ...
Helpless, she had no choice but to pick up the vegetable washing water, walk out of the kitchen, and find the slop bucket.
She wondered why the slop bucket wasn't placed in the kitchen, but rather in such a far-off place.
Is it just to give her something to do?
As she walked through the alley, she saw Jin Baiwan running with firewood on his back.
Undeterred, Ji Xinghan went over to chat with Jin Baiwan again, but Jin Baiwan was only interested in braised pork and carried firewood with incredible speed, showing no interest in Ji Xinghan's words whatsoever.
Seeing Jin Baiwan eat another bowl of braised pork, Ji Xinghan couldn't help but ask, "What's the benefit of you eating braised pork?"
Jin Baiwan was taken aback, then patted his stomach: "It's filling!"
Jin Baiwan looked aggrieved: "I'm so hungry!"
