Chapter 177



"Okay."

Jin Suting said two words and turned to see if the red beans were cooked.

The fire was very strong, and it soon boiled. Jin Suting scooped out the cooked red beans. When she had scooped half of them, she said, "Helan Ruizhe, can you do me a favor?"

Helan Ruizhe said, "Well, what?"

Jin Suting smiled mischievously and said, "Go get me a basin of well water."

"Uh, huh?" Helan Ruizhe asked in confusion.

After Jin Suting finished scooping the red beans, she shook the spoon and said, "You can see the well when you go out. There is a basin on the table. Thank you~"

"..." Helan Ruizhe didn't want to admit that he didn't know how to draw well water, so he agreed reluctantly, "Okay."

Jin Suting suppressed her laughter and said, "Then go ahead."

"Go," Helan Ruizhe picked up the basin on the table, "I'll go now."

Xiao Hei and Cao Cao were playing chess in the yard. When they saw Helan Ruizhe coming out with a basin, they almost fell down.

"Xiao Hei," he pointed hastily at Helan Ruizhe who was walking towards the well, "look at what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is doing."

Xiao Hei had his back to the well. He turned curiously, but the chess piece in his hand fell off the board with a thud. He turned back with a look of disbelief: "He's going to fetch water?"

Helan Ruizhe, who was standing in front of the well, was at a loss and put the basin aside.

He stood with his hands on his hips and looked at the well. As the crown prince, he had visited the people in disguise in previous years, but he had never cooked, let alone fetched water.

But even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen pigs run.

He had occasionally seen palace maids fetching water in the palace, so he decided to give it a try.

This is what I thought in my mind, but my actions were very clumsy.

He could recite poems at the age of three, write essays at the age of six, and practice martial arts at the age of eight. However, such a talented genius knew nothing about these rough jobs.

There was a rope at the mouth of the well for drawing water. He looked at the rope, then looked at his basin, and looked around but there was no wooden barrel. When he was about to pick up the rope, Jin Suting patted his shoulder from behind.

"Hey!" She laughed triumphantly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know how to fetch water, does he?"

Helan Ruizhe was hit by what he said and retorted: "Who said I can't do it? I'm just not good at it."

"You're not good at these rough jobs. Your Highness was born to be rich." Jin Suting walked to the shed behind the well and took out a wooden bucket. "You shouldn't do these rough jobs. I was just teasing you. How could I ask you to fetch water? It's a waste of God's gift~"

Jin Suting tied a rope and threw the wooden barrel down. It was very heavy, so Helan Ruizhe went over to help her pull it up.

With a full bucket of water, Helan Ruizhe said, "Look, I've got some water."

Jin Suting laughed: "Then you are awesome!"

Xiao Hei and Cao Cao were sitting on the stone table on the other side, witnessing everything. They looked at each other and curled their lips.

It was not until the afternoon that Jin Suting came out of the kitchen with a plate of fragrant egg yolk pastry in her hands.

Helan Ruizhe followed behind her and helped her.

Thinking about it this way, I actually feel a little proud.

Jin Suting put the egg yolk pastry on the stone bench. Cao Cao and Xiao Hei were still competing with each other. Jin Suting said, "Stop playing for now. I made the egg yolk pastry."

Xiao Hei's eyes lit up when he saw the food, "It smells so good, sister, did you make this?"

Jin Suting glanced at Helan Ruizhe, "To be precise, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I did it together."

Xiao Hei's sinful hand was withdrawn: "Then I dare not eat it."

Jin Suting asked, "Don't you dare eat?"
