Chapter 16: The Unexpected
After Meng Chuyuan folded the last leaf, she looked sideways and found that only a quarter of Liao Jiake's vegetable patch was loosened.
Looking over there, the Qi family's siblings were quite quick, and they had already cleared more than half of the land that was originally overgrown with weeds.
Looking at the gap between the other two groups, a complicated look flashed in Meng Chuyuan's eyes.
After a while, she placed the bucket next to her horizontally, pushed it casually, and it rolled to Lu Jinsen's feet.
Lu Jinsen was confused by her sudden action and looked at her in confusion.
Meng Chuyuan ordered him: "Go and get a bucket of water."
"What do you need water for?"
Seeing that Meng Chuyuan didn't answer, Lu Jinsen didn't dwell on it anymore. He stood up with the bucket and went to find a place to get water.
Not long after, Lu Jinsen came back with a full bucket of water, and at this time Meng Chuyuan was already standing at the edge of the vegetable field with a red watering can in his hand.
She instructed Lu Jinsen to put the bucket aside and asked him to pick up the hoe from the ground.
"What are you going to do?" Lu Jinsen had no idea what she was thinking, nor did he know what she was going to do, but he could actively cooperate with Meng Chuyuan without knowing anything.
Meng Chuyuan bent down, scooped a bucket of water from the container, and sprinkled it on the ground. He responded to Lu Jinsen's question, "Of course, you need to water the ground to make it looser. Otherwise, if you keep using the hoe like this, it will be useless sooner or later."
"..."Why didn't he think of the fact that water can make the soil loose?
This is indeed a good idea. Sister Meng is so thoughtful and considerate.
[Sure enough, details determine success or failure hahahahaha]
[Sister Meng is really beautiful and smart. I love such a smart beauty.]
[Meng Chuyuan: I don’t rely on brute force, I rely on intelligence]
Meng Chuyuan sprinkled the water on the ground. After a long while, she turned around and saw Lu Jinsen standing there motionless. A hint of suspicion flashed across his deep eyes. "We're working, why are you standing there like an idiot?"
Lu Jinsen blinked in astonishment, as if he had misheard, and asked in disbelief, "Now?"
She looked up at him, and said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "Did I mean tomorrow?"
“…”What a fickle woman.
I just asked him to rest, and it hasn't been long now and he is asked to work again.
Lu Jinsen took the hoe and continued to cultivate the soil that had just been watered.
Half an hour later, their team's soil loosening work was basically completed. They then hoed away the remaining weeds and broke up the unprocessed soil blocks.
Lu Jinsen had always been in charge of the soil turning work. While he was dealing with the weeds, Meng Chuyuan inexplicably disappeared from the live broadcast room. When she came back again, she was holding a heavy sack in her hand.
Lu Jinsen glanced at the sack in her hand and saw that it was a little dirty, and even smelled a pungent odor.
He subconsciously took two steps back, frowning, with a hint of disgust on his face: "What are you holding?"
Meng Chuyuan said calmly, "It's fat."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinsen's face suddenly changed. He raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose, and stepped back to keep a distance from Meng Chuyuan.
She saw that the land had been abandoned for too long and the soil quality was average, so she asked the villagers for some organic fertilizer.
"Look at you, you're such a loser." Meng Chuyuan looked at him with disdain and stretched out his hand towards him: "Give me the hoe."
After Lu Jinsen handed her the hoe, he returned to a shady place to rest alone.
Meng Chuyuan poured out the manure from the sack, added it to the soil, and mixed in organic fertilizer while turning the soil.
[Even organic fertilizer is used, it seems Sister Meng knows how to farm]
[Help! ! Sister Meng is so down-to-earth doing farm work!]
[Sister Meng always thinks of things that others don’t think of]
Every time I have a holiday, I go back to my hometown to help with farm work. When I see Sister Meng carrying these things, I suddenly feel so familiar and like she’s saving my life.
After Meng Chuyuan applied the fertilizer evenly, she turned to find Lu Jinsen and threw the spinach seeds to him.
Lu Jinsen took it in his arms.
Meng Chuyuan glanced at him and said calmly, "Plant the seeds later, okay?"
He looked unhappy and asked in a cold voice, "Why me?"
When he thought about the fertilizer she had added to the soil just now, every cell in Lu Jinsen's body resisted.
"Why can't it be you, or can't you handle such a small matter?"
As soon as Meng Chuyuan opened her mouth, he was instantly speechless.
Seeing that he didn't say anything back, Meng Chuyuan took out an unopened mask from his coat pocket and gave it to Lu Jinsen: "This may be useful to you."
Without saying a word, Lu Jinsen took the mask from her hand and held it in his hand.
She reminded again: "Remember to plant the seeds later. I have dug the furrows. Sow the seeds in the furrows evenly, and then cover them with a layer of grass ash."
Lu Jinsen uttered a sound through his nose: "Hmm."
After giving the instructions, Meng Chuyuan took the hoe and left, heading straight towards Liao Jiake.
Liao Jiake worked for a long time before the soil was only half loosened.
For Liao Jiake, who has never done farm work before, she can only work hard and at her own pace.
Suddenly, she heard a beautiful voice behind her: "I'm here to help you."
Liao Jiake turned around curiously and saw Meng Chuyuan walking towards her with a hoe.
The moment she saw Meng Chuyuan appear, Liao Jiake's eyes became moist, giving people a feeling of crying with joy.
[Ahhhh, two beauties in the same live broadcast room, this is considered a cross-dimensional frame]
[Oh my god! Don’t stop me, I have to become a fan of Sister Meng this time!]
[Sister Meng is such a sweet little cotton-padded jacket, I love her so much woooo ...
[I never expected it! I really never expected it!! The person who came to help my Coco in the end was actually the sister Meng whom I hated the most!!!]
[Based on Sister Meng's behavior today, I order you not to criticize her!]
When Meng Chuyuan came to her side and put the hoe into the ground, Liao Jiake reacted after a while and said to her, "Thank you."
"It's just a small favor, you're welcome."
Liao Jiake picked up a random topic to chat about: "Are you done with your work over there?"
Meng Chuyuan said softly: "No."
"Ah?" Liao Jiake was a little surprised: "Then why did you come to help me?"
Meng Chuyuan raised his head and glanced in Lu Jinsen's direction: "With that kid here, it won't be a problem."
Liao Jiake: “…”
Including today, they recorded the show together for two days, but everyone was working in groups, each busy with their own things, and had no time to interact privately.
For Liao Jiake, Meng Chuyuan still gives her a rather mysterious feeling.
When everyone was busy and exhausted, only Meng Chuyuan was resting on the side. You could say she was slacking off, but that's not entirely true. If you say she was lazy, it wasn't obvious either.
Even though Meng Chuyuan seems to do nothing at the beginning, she always manages to surprise people unexpectedly in the end and complete the tasks assigned by the program team ahead of schedule in the shortest time.
