Chapter 59: Free Extra Meal
Meng Chuyuan smiled lightly and said, "How could you care so much? You're always staring at me."
Any trivial matter can be magnified infinitely in front of Lu Jinsen.
Lu Jinsen snorted coldly: "Don't be so self-indulgent. When did I ever stare at you?"
"How could you observe so carefully without staring at me?"
“…”
At noon, the eight guests successfully completed the tasks assigned by the program team and received corresponding labor coins.
Meng Chuyuan still had the right to use the labor currency. She exchanged it for eggs and shrimps just like yesterday, and also for some scallops and tofu.
"Brother, I'll prepare the shrimp and scrambled eggs for you today."
Lu Jinsen frowned somewhat unhappily and did not speak to Meng Chuyuan.
[Sister Meng's calling him "brother-in-law" is so easy to say, hahaha, mainly because the eldest young master tacitly approves]
Lu Jinsen said: Why did she bring this up again? I'm really upset.
[Sister Meng still remembered that the young master wanted to eat shrimp fried eggs, so she specially brought back some eggs and shrimp to make it for him.]
[I’m looking forward to it. Last time, the young master didn’t fry the eggs well. I wonder if I can make the shrimp omelet this time.]
[I remember Lu Jinsen was quite confident last time. Didn't he say cooking wasn't that difficult? Hahaha. His expression changed when he mentioned cooking.]
It seems Jiu and Luo Yunzhou were new to the place and were quite happy to receive their labor coins for the first time. They didn’t think about using them sparingly and just exchanged whatever they wanted to exchange.
Their group exchanged some kelp and taro, as well as crabs, conchs and abalone, and almost spent all their labor coins.
"A question suddenly occurred to me. Can you cook?"
After listening to Jiu exchange the ingredients, I realized belatedly that their group had no division of labor yet.
Luo Yunzhou suddenly turned around, looked at Tingjiu in surprise, shook his head and said, "I can't do it, what about you?"
"Neither can I."
Faced with so many ingredients, Luo Yunzhou scratched his head: "What should I do?"
[I'm dying of laughter, hahahaha, I can tell from the look in his eyes that he's a newbie]
"My two brothers, even though we're flying guests, we still have to be frugal with our labor currency. You'll need it tomorrow. Director Luo isn't a good person and won't accept credit."
I thought these two nouveau riche would know how to cook since they exchanged so many things for something, but they are novices.
[The idiotic handsome guy is talking about listening to Jiu and Luo Yunzhou, right?]
Ting Jiu raised his head and saw that Meng Chuyuan had not gone far, so he said to Luo Yunzhou: "How about going to my senior sister's place for lunch?"
Luo Yunzhou asked doubtfully, "You have a senior here?"
"Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
After listening to Jiu's words, he ran to Meng Chuyuan and said, "Sister Chuyuan, Brother Yunzhou and I don't know how to cook. Can we have lunch with you?"
Lu Jinsen moved his mouth and was about to say no, but Meng Chuyuan agreed.
"Sure, just bring your ingredients to my place."
Tingjiu: "Thank you, sister. We'll come find you later."
Meng Chuyuan smiled and said, "No problem."
Lu Jinsen was really unhappy this time. It wasn't that he couldn't stand other people eating for free, he just felt a little unbalanced.
Why is it that Tingjiu and the others can’t cook, but Meng Chuyuan can entertain them with just one sentence, while he can’t cook and has to learn it himself?
Lu Jinsen: "If they come to eat, do they have to work too?"
"What kind of work are you doing? You're a guest, don't you understand?"
Lu Jinsen raised the question again: "Then let them eat and drink for free and do nothing?"
"How can that be called free food and drinks? Didn't I just ask them to bring the food to me? You have to think about it from another perspective. This is called a free meal."
[What a free meal, hahaha, Sister Meng is so good at talking]
[This is another example of the ways of the world that the young master doesn't understand.]
[The eldest young master's brain is like a helicopter, he can't even turn, hahahaha]
[Sister Meng said: We have the ingredients and the people to do the work]
[Another day of worshipping Sister Meng’s brain. How come it works so well? She convinces others and herself as well.]
After returning to her residence, Meng Chuyuan went to the kitchen, and Lu Jinsen undoubtedly helped her.
His task today was still to pick out shrimp threads. With yesterday's experience, Lu Jinsen was not so clumsy today.
Meng Chuyuan first soaked the scallops, then cleaned them, pried them open with a knife, and took out the half of the shell without meat.
She soaked a handful of vermicelli in a basin, then peeled the garlic, chopped it into a paste and set it aside.
Just at this time, Tingjiu and Luo Yunzhou came over with ingredients.
"Sister Chu Yuan, we are here."
As Meng Chuyuan watched them bring the ingredients over, he said bluntly, "Put the food on the table. I'll take care of it later."
Luo Yunzhou asked: "Do you need our help?"
"No, I can handle it. You just sit down and rest for a while."
The main reason is that their kitchen is not big enough to accommodate so many people.
Tingjiu said: "When you need us, just call us. We will be right outside the door."
After the two of them delivered the ingredients to Meng Chuyuan, they came out and saw Lu Jinsen sitting aside picking out shrimp threads, so they took the initiative to come over.
Tingjiu: "Brother Sen, do you need help?"
When Lu Jinsen heard someone calling him, he looked up and found that Ting Jiu and Luo Yunzhou were coming over.
He hesitated for a moment before speaking: "You know how to pick shrimp threads, right?"
[Oh my god, I’m going to die of laughter from the young master, hahahahaha]
[666, Young Master, did you learn this impolite attitude from Sister Meng?]
[Lu Jinsen's little calculation is quite good]
Lu Jinsen said: Since you guys came to me on your own initiative, let's pick out the shrimp threads together.
[Although the flying guests can't cook, they can help]
Luo Yunzhou proactively said, "I will."
Tingjiu's mouth curled up with embarrassment, and he said a little embarrassedly: "I have never chosen one before, is this difficult?"
"It's not difficult, it's quite simple. Sit down and I'll teach you."
After Lu Jinsen asked Tingjiu to sit down, he held a toothpick in one hand and a shrimp in the other and demonstrated it to him in slow motion.
Tingjiu followed Lu Jinsen and quickly learned how to do it.
After learning how to use the nine-point shrimp thread, Lu Jinsen's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.
After a while, Lu Jinsen stood up and said calmly, "Then I'll leave this to you two. I'll go to the kitchen and take a look."
"good."
Lu Jinsen came to the kitchen, with his hands behind his back, like an old man taking a walk.
Meng Chuyuan had just prepared the scallops and put them in the pot to steam, but when she turned around, she saw Lu Jinsen.
"Didn't I tell you to pick out the shrimp threads? You've finished so quickly?"
"No, they are picking."
Meng Chuyuan frowned, his tone full of doubt: "They?"
"They're the two who gave us the free meals."
Meng Chuyuan walked to the door curiously and glanced outside. He saw Tingjiu and Luo Yunzhou sitting side by side on the eaves picking shrimp threads.
She retracted her gaze and looked at Lu Jinsen with admiration: "You are really amazing."
