Chapter 18: Taking Care of Other People's Children
Qi Yan stood aside like a transparent person the whole time, her eyes always fixed on Meng Chuyuan.
Especially when Qi Zhen's expression changed just now, it made her a little curious. When did he become familiar with this woman?
After a while, Meng Chuyuan withdrew his gaze calmly and said with a smile: "We are almost done."
Qi Zhen gave a wry smile: "You guys are so fast."
"It's okay, you guys should keep up the good work too." After saying that, Meng Chuyuan left the hoe to them and walked towards Lu Jinsen.
[Ahhhhhh, I love Sister Meng’s even-handed approach.]
[What should I do?! I'm about to fall in love with that woman who left her hoe behind.]
[She is helping others while completing her own tasks.]
I just scolded this woman for being late!!! I didn't expect she still has some kindness in her.
After Lu Jinsen finished pouring a bucket of water, he was about to get another one. As soon as he turned around, he saw Meng Chuyuan, but he chose to ignore her and passed by Meng Chuyuan with the bucket.
Meng Chuyuan opened her mouth. Actually, she wanted to ask him what stage he had reached, but Lu Jinsen didn't even look at her.
Not long after, Lu Jinsen came back with a bucket of water and went to the field, still ignoring the woman next to him.
Even through the screen, the audience in the live broadcast room could feel how awkward the atmosphere was.
[Based on my many years of experience, the young master is getting angry, hahahaha]
[He's probably angry about the sowing just now. Lu Jinsen is a vengeful person.]
How dare Lu Jinsen ignore your sister-in-law?
[If you ignore her now, you won’t be able to reach her in the future, hahahaha]
[Lu Jinsen, it's not too late to apologize now, hahahahaha, but don't let anyone cook for you when you're hungry.]
Meng Chuyuan saw that he deliberately ignored her twice when he passed by her. Instead of getting angry, she looked very relaxed and walked to the cornfield next door.
A young couple was busy working in the cornfield. The woman was carrying a bamboo basket for harvesting corn in front of her and a crying child behind her. Meng Chuyuan happened to see this scene, so he came over.
"Do you need help?" Meng Chuyuan asked.
The woman looked at her in surprise and asked doubtfully, "Are you talking to me?"
Meng Chuyuan: "Yes."
The woman wanted to refuse her kindness, but she didn't expect that the baby who was crying loudly behind her gradually stopped crying because of Meng Chuyuan's approach.
The little guy who had just cried stopped crying, his expression was a little dull, and his big watery eyes stared at Meng Chuyuan.
"What a cute little baby." Seeing the chubby little guy, Meng Chuyuan's eyes were not only full of love, but his voice also became much gentler.
The woman looked back at the child and breathed a sigh of relief: "My dear, you've finally calmed down."
The little guy hummed twice, his limbs were shaking, and he seemed a little excited.
Meng Chuyuan stood aside and smiled sweetly at the baby.
The child's mother seemed to sense the little one's emotions and asked curiously, "Do you want to play with your sister?"
The baby is still young and does not have the ability to speak yet, but after seeing Meng Chuyuan, the little guy stopped crying and became very well-behaved.
[It's amazing! This child was crying so hard just now, but he stopped crying after seeing Sister Meng.]
[As expected, love for beautiful women is regardless of age, hahahahaha]
【Child, I admire you】
[Sister Meng is really good at raising children. My future children will surely be very happy.]
[Help! I can almost see her becoming a mother in the future.]
[The neighbor is busy working, and Sister Meng is busy taking care of the baby. This is the first time I’ve been so envious of a child.]
Meng Chuyuan looked at the little guy raising his hand, and she couldn't help but raise her arm and wrap the soft little hand in front of her into her palm.
The little guy seemed not satisfied with this, and soon stretched out his other hand, looking like he was asking for a hug, which made it impossible to ignore him.
Faced with such a cute human cub, Meng Chuyuan couldn't refuse: "Can I hold it?"
"Sure." The woman put the child down and handed it to Meng Chuyuan.
Meng Chuyuan carefully held the child in his arms and gently stroked the little guy's back to help him relax.
The little guy didn't seem to be shy. The moment he fell into Meng Chuyuan's arms, he showed an innocent smile.
"How old is the baby?" Meng Chuyuan asked.
"About six months."
"She's so pretty, she must be a girl, right?"
The child's mother chuckled and shook her head: "A boy."
Lu Jinsen poured half a bucket of water on the ground. When he came to his senses, he found that Meng Chuyuan behind him had disappeared.
He glanced around and finally saw Meng Chuyuan in the cornfield on the side.
Lu Jinsen could see from a distance that she was holding a child in her arms, and the scene was not at all inappropriate.
For some reason, Lu Jinsen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this scene.
Wasn't he obvious enough just now?
Can't you see that he has a temper?
You go to coax other people's children but you don't want to say a word to him, right?
As his emotions got aroused, Lu Jinsen splashed the remaining half bucket of water without caring whether the water spilled on the seeds or not.
After finishing this trip, Lu Jinsen called the responsible villagers to check. They completed the task first and their group won first place again.
Liao Jiake planted the seeds, then listened to Meng Chuyuan's advice and ran to borrow a water pipe from the villagers to water the plants. Unfortunately, the Shuangqi siblings, who were at the bottom of the list, loosened the soil and immediately sowed the seeds.
Unfortunately, even though the Shuangqi siblings sped up, they were still unable to catch up, and Liao Jiake finally took second place.
Seeing that the second place had been decided, Qi Yan and Qi Zhen were like eggplants hit by frost, their eyes had lost their luster. After sowing the seeds and pouring water on them, they hurriedly called it a day.
The director distributed the ranking rewards to each group, and also carried out a labor currency exchange session for the guests.
Since the dinner for the first place winner was provided directly by the program team, Lu Jinsen did not participate in the exchange. After he received the labor coins, he saw that Meng Chuyuan had not returned yet, and his eyebrows were frosted.
Lu Jinsen waited for a while, but he couldn't wait any longer.
Meng Chuyuan didn't realize that the mission was over, so naturally she had no intention of coming back, so Lu Jinsen had no choice but to come find her.
Perhaps it was because of Lu Jinsen's sudden approach that the baby burst into tears.
Meng Chuyuan noticed someone next to him, then turned his head and saw Lu Jinsen appear with a dark face.
Because the baby was crying so hard, Meng Chuyuan focused all his attention on the little guy.
She lowered her eyes to look at the little guy in her arms and comforted him: "Don't cry, don't cry, even though this brother is ugly, he is not a bad person."
Lu Jinsen: “…”
They actually said he was ugly!
After a long time, the baby's crying gradually stopped.
Lu Jinsen glanced at Meng Chuyuan and said coldly, "It's time to go back."
