Chapter 68: Taking a Step Back and Getting More Angered
Meng Chuyuan really couldn't find any fault with what the director had just said, but now she knew that these ingredients would be used by the program crew in this way, so there was no need to exchange them for labor coins.
"How can that be?" The director began to get anxious.
This was the only time he was lucky enough to do so, and Meng Chuyuan saw through his mistake.
"There won't be a next time." The director looked at Meng Chuyuan and said sincerely, "Really."
Because there are only two days left in this episode, he can't keep arranging guests to go sea fishing. Even if they are willing to go, the audience will get tired of it.
Meng Chuyuan lowered his eyes to glance at the foam box at his feet, skipped the seafood options, and went to choose meat.
Meng Chuyuan won the most times among the guests, and she placed all four chances on meat.
The director saw that after she took the meat away, only the meatballs were left. The guests who had just eaten seafood at noon were not able to get along with the small fish and shrimp.
[I'm dying of laughter. No one chose seafood. I feel like the director was kicked out of the group chat.]
[Director: After all, I am not worthy of you all]
[They basically ate seafood this time, who would like that?]
After the guests got their favorite ingredients, they started to draw lots.
It was gradually getting dark, and the production crew hung up the light cords, and soon the studio became bright.
The evening breeze began to pick up, and the sound of waves surrounded the entire beach.
Half an hour later, the coals in the grill also started burning, emitting thick and pungent smoke.
Meng Chuyuan and the Liao sisters sat nearby opening oysters, while Lu Jinsen and several male guests were working hard on grilling skewers.
However, the wind was a bit strong at night, which was not very friendly to their fire and it couldn't burn.
Qi Zhen was surrounded by a cloud of smoke, feeling very uncomfortable and kept coughing.
Tingjiu fanned the coal with a small piece of cardboard, but the coal only produced smoke and no fire.
He pinched his nose and complained, "Why can't it burn?"
Ting Jiu was fanning the air recklessly, and the smoke was coming towards Lu Jinsen. He said with a dark face, "Can you please stop fanning?"
"No, the fire will go out if I stop."
Lu Jinsen: "I'll have a share after I kill you."
[Hahahaha, I didn't expect the young master to be so humorous]
Lu Jinsen expressed his intolerance and said he no longer needed to endure it.
The young master silently said to himself: If you endure for a while, the situation will be peaceful. If you take a step back, the more you think about it, the angrier you will get.
[I'm so happy to see the young master. How come I didn't realize before he appeared on the show that every expression and movement of his can be so funny?]
Qi Zhen's younger brother: Hello? Doesn't anyone care about me?
Meng Chuyuan sat nearby and felt that the chattering of these masters was really annoying.
She put down the knife in her hand, forced her way between Ting Jiu and Lu Jinsen, and then separated them.
Lu Jinsen was inexplicably pushed aside, his eyes darkened, as if he was a child who had done something wrong and was being scolded by his parents.
"I'll do it, you guys go open the oysters." Meng Chuyuan turned sideways and took the tongs from Lu Jinsen's hand.
Lu Jinsen raised his eyes, a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Can you handle it?"
"Is this difficult?" Meng Chuyuan responded nonchalantly.
Lu Jinsen: “…”
After Meng Chuyuan took over, he deliberately found a suitable location, away from the wind, and then began to slowly burn the charcoal.
Ting Jiu and Lu Jinsen had been busy for so long, but Meng Chuyuan saw the charcoal fire in less than three minutes.
Seeing that the charcoal was already burning red, Meng Chuyuan began to set up the grill, then brushed it with oil and put a few skewers of meat to grill.
The charcoal on Qi Zhen and Luo Yunzhou's side was still emitting thick smoke, with no sign of improvement.
Seeing Meng Chuyuan lighting a charcoal fire, Qi Zhen asked her for help: "Sister Meng, please help us take a look."
…
After the charcoal fire started burning, they gradually got into the mood. The originally messy smoky environment faded away and was slowly replaced by the aroma of roasted meat.
It was the first time that Qi Zhen and Luo Yunzhou took action. The two of them were guarding a stall, which seemed a bit crowded. The barbecue grill was filled with various meat skewers.
Meng Chuyuan is very skilled and quick in applying the sauce. When he gets serious, he looks like a street vendor selling barbecue.
[Tonight's hot search terms are here again]
[Sister Meng gave me the illusion that she was in this line of work, hahaha]
[+1, I also think Sister Meng looks like a barbecue vendor. A young and beautiful barbecue restaurant lady, she's also very down-to-earth, and there's no sense of disobedience in her role.]
Qi Zhen and Luo Yunzhou are clearly newbies. There's no charcoal burning anywhere, and they've put so much meat on there. I don't know if it will be cooked through by tomorrow...
[You make me hungry. I want to order some barbecue later.]
In addition, the director and several colleagues also did their own barbecue outside the venue. Meng Chuyuan and his colleagues had already sprinkled cumin on the first batch of meat skewers and served them on a plate, but they were just getting started.
However, most of the ingredients here are seafood, which need to be processed before they can be grilled, so the progress is a little slower.
Meng Chuyuan grilled several skewers of beef, pork belly and sausages, then called Lu Jinsen over to take the plates away.
"How about I take over?" Lu Jinsen didn't rush to take over after he came over. Instead, he noticed that there were too many things on the table that hadn't been baked, and he was worried that Meng Chuyuan couldn't handle it alone.
Meng Chuyuan: "Serve the food to everyone first, otherwise it will get cold soon."
Lu Jinsen looked up at her, silently took the plate, turned around and brought the barbecue to the other guests.
"Eat it."
"Why don't we wait a moment? They're still busy." Liao Jiake felt a little embarrassed. After all, there were only three people grilling, and they were all sitting in the shed waiting for food.
"Then let's wait a little longer." Although Tingjiu felt a little greedy, since no one seemed to want to eat, he didn't dare to move either.
"Then you just watch." After Lu Jinsen said this, he turned around and returned to Meng Chuyuan.
“…”
Meng Chuyuan was about to add meat to the shelf when he saw Lu Jinsen appear.
"What are you doing here?" she asked curiously. "Aren't you going to eat with them?"
"I'm here to help you."
He thought this would be easier than cooking.
[It's rare that Lu Jinsen didn't hesitate this time, and he wasn't as stubborn as before.]
[Oh my goodness, it turns out the young master is such a warm-hearted guy]
[Yes, the young master's changes are beginning to become apparent. I hope they continue and are not just a temporary show.]
[Sister Meng must be shocked. The young master actually said something like "I'm here to help you."]
Meng Chuyuan was indeed surprised just now, but it wasn't that exaggerated, so he didn't show it very obviously.
She gave him her seat without hesitation: "Okay, then you come."
Seeing Lu Jinsen standing at the stall, Meng Chuyuan reminded him, "The middle part is better cooked, so you can put thicker meat there. Put some easy-to-cook meat in the other places."
"Got it." He followed Meng Chuyuan's instructions and placed the thicker meat where the charcoal fire was the hottest, and placed the small skewers and sausages next to it.
