Chapter 36: Deciding to Partner Up (1/2)



Qin Shuwan ate a piece of noodles and praised Su Ye, "Su Zhiqing, your cooking skills are amazing. Such simple ingredients can make it so delicious."

Chen Hongmei also nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I think it's delicious too."

He Jianjun ate while exaggerating, "It's really great"

Su Ye showed the most genuine smile on his face. It was the first time he had done something well and received recognition from others.

In the Su family, no matter how well he did, that group of people would always find fault with him and find unreasonable reasons to punish him by not allowing him to eat or working.

His only biological mother, who was related to him by blood, ignored him and treated him as a tool to be beaten and scolded at will.

Many people are afraid of going to the countryside, but he is happy to do it. As long as he can get away from that family, he has hands and feet and is strong, so what can't he do to support himself?

“Just eat what you like.”

Chen Hongmei chewed some noodles and said, "What do you think? Should we cook on our own, or join forces with the old educated youth?"

He Jianjun said frankly, "To be honest, I don't want to team up with them. The more people there are, the more trouble there will be.

When we come here, we have to support ourselves with our own hands. Working in the fields is very tiring, so how can we have the time and energy to waste on trivial matters? "

Chen Hongmei: "I think so too. Just now, they looked like they were taking advantage of us, which made me feel uncomfortable.

As long as they are mixed together, trouble is bound to happen."

He Jianjun: "We should ask the captain for some advance on our rations.

But it’s hard to get the utensils. It’s too far to go to town, and you may not be able to buy an iron pot.”

Qin Shuwan said suddenly, "I brought a small iron pot, which should be enough for three or four people."

Chen Hongmei was choked by the noodles in her mouth. After she swallowed them with great difficulty, she didn't know what to say when she saw Qin Shuwan.

"Qin Shuwan, my first impression of you was that you were pretentious, but after looking at you again, I think you're okay. Now I think I've fallen in love with you."

Qin Shuwan rolled her eyes and said, "If I tell you that I not only brought an iron pot, but also a spatula and a kitchen knife, would you fall in love with me?

But it’s no use for you to fall in love with me, I am the firework that you can’t get.”

Chen Hongmei didn't know what shyness was. She said angrily, "Stop being so conceited. Why should I love you? If I love you, will you marry me?"

Look at your skinny arms and legs, can you support me?"

Qin Shuwan: Who says people in this era are reserved? Does what this lady said have anything to do with being reserved?

Chen Hongmei: "Why don't we just team up?

Although I can't cook, I can wash vegetables and clean.

Let's use Qin Shuwan's utensils and split the money.

What do you three think?"

Qin Shuwan nodded, "I agree, but I can't cook either, but I can do something else."

He Jianjun: "I have no problem with that. I can do anything, even fetching water or collecting firewood."

Su Ye hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I won't participate." He was alone and just wanted to make a living. He had nothing except the dime Qin Zhiqing paid him during the day.

Qin Shuwan probably knew why Su Ye disagreed.

He smiled and said, "Su Zhiqing, if we team up, we can't be without you.

We are here to help you because of your cooking skills.

Don't worry about the money for the utensils. Just give it to me when you have it. Anyway, I can't use it in this corner even if you give it to me now."

He Jianjun and Chen Hongmei finally realized what was happening. Chen Hongmei said carelessly, "That's right, Su Zhiqing, your cooking skills are really great."
