Chapter 160 Unrequited Love, I'll Invite You to Drink Excrement
Lin Cheng yanked open the bucket lid.
Then, a stench that filled the air surged out.
"Damn it, Young Master Ting, this is indeed water, but this is fucking... this is sewage..."
Murong Ting had already retreated seven or eight steps, his face turning pale from the smell: "Take this thing away from me!"
Lin Cheng was on the verge of tears: "Can I not take it?"
At this moment, Yan Heli came out and, seeing that they hadn't moved, asked in confusion, "Hey? You haven't watered it yet?"
Lin Cheng asked tremblingly, "Water...water what?"
“Fertilizing the flowers and plants,” Yan Heli pointed to a flowerbed next to him. “The reason why the flowers, plants and trees here can grow so well is because of this natural fertilizer. This fertilizer is very precious.”
Lin Cheng realized that Mr. Yan wasn't there to give them water, but was planning to come and fertilize their plants, which Lin Cheng had cleverly "intercepted."
He forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Mr. Yan, I've never done this job before. Why don't you do it yourself?"
Murong Ting immediately punched Lin Cheng: "What are you saying? You're so young, why is it so difficult for you to do something? Mr. Yan, it's alright, you can sit down and leave it to him."
"You're the most sensible kid." Yan Heli handed the ladle over.
Seeing the ladle that Yan Heli handed him, Lin Cheng looked at Murong Ting with a pleading look in despair.
Murong Ting cleared his throat: "Mr. Yan has already given it to you, aren't you going to take it?"
Lin Cheng: "..."
Ultimately, he has to bear all the burdens alone!
Gritting his teeth, he took the ladle from Yan Heli's hand.
With a heavy heart, he deliberately said, "Little brother, why don't you come with me? We can each carry it and the other sprinkle it; working together will make it faster."
Murong Ting's eyes widened.
Yan Heli nodded, looking quite approving: "Yes, Xiao Tingzi, I have to admit, your older brother does have some wisdom."
Under Yan Heli's piercing gaze, Murong Ting had no choice but to compromise, saying, "Alright... then."
Yan Heli nodded in satisfaction, then turned and went back into the house.
Lin Cheng walked up to Murong Ting and said smugly, "Young Master Ting, bucket or ladle, you choose one."
Murong Ting: "...If I could, I would choose to die."
Lin Cheng sighed: "Don't do that. Think about your words and actions. The young master said that the young mistress respects her master very much. That's like you being half a father-in-law. You're giving me such a good opportunity to shine. Aren't you being a bit unreasonable!"
Murong Ting: "..."
Half an hour later.
"Young Master Ting, over here, over here, bring it over, this part hasn't been watered yet!"
In the flowerbed, Lin Cheng held a ladle and beckoned to Murong Ting.
With a sullen face and wearing a mask, Murong Ting carried the bucket over.
Lin Cheng quickly scooped up a ladleful and sprinkled it on the ground, muttering as he watered, "Young Master Ting, don't you think that, ignoring the smell, this job is actually quite interesting?"
Murong Ting: "?"
"Look how vibrant these flowers and plants are! We water them with this stinky fertilizer, and they still manage to bloom with fragrant flowers. Life is so amazing."
Rong Ting said in a deep voice, "Since you like it so much, when we get back to the company, we won't need the gardener in the industrial park downstairs anymore. I think you'll be perfect for the job."
Lin Cheng: "...Hehe, Young Master Ting, there's really no need for that!"
"Shut up if you don't need to."
"OK."
The garden wasn't small, and it took the two of them half a day to water it, but they finally managed to water it almost completely.
They put the wooden bucket aside and went inside.
Upon seeing this, Yan Heli immediately shouted, "You two are standing outside, and the smell on you is really too strong. You look like decent people, how come you smell so bad?"
Murong Ting and Lin Cheng: "..."
Who are they doing this for?!
With no other option, the two had to stand back in the yard.
Yan Heli said from the kitchen, "If you're free, could you do me another favor?"
Despite feeling exhausted, Murong Ting nodded enthusiastically, "What kind of help do you need? Please tell me."
Yan Heli came out and said, "I'm going to kill a chicken. Go catch one."
"Does Wanwan like eating chicken?" Murong Ting rubbed his hands together, eager to try.
Yan Heli looked at him as if he were an idiot and replied perfunctorily, "Oh, right, right."
After saying that, he pointed to the chicken coop opposite the flower bed: "It's over there, not far away. There are two chickens in total. You catch the smaller one."
"Okay, okay..."
Murong Ting strode forward, pulling Lin Cheng along with him.
Lin Cheng looked around and, seeing no one, whispered, "Young Master Ting, have you noticed that Mr. Yan seems very polite to us, but he's quite ruthless when it comes to ordering us around?"
Murong Ting asked doubtfully, "Really? This shows that they don't treat us as outsiders, which is a good sign."
Lin Cheng, looking disheveled and wrinkled, said, "But what does this have to do with me? You're the one who's trying to win over your wife and please your father-in-law. Why am I so unlucky?"
Murong Ting turned around and stared at him, his face serious: "Lin Cheng, don't say that. You just said that you are my brother, so you should act like a brother."
Lin Cheng shuddered and said tremblingly, "Young Master Ting, be normal, don't be like this, I'm scared!"
Murong Ting glanced at him: "Don't be afraid, you still need to catch chickens. Do you know how to catch chickens?"
Lin Cheng glanced at the location of the chicken coop: "Young Master Ting, does cockfighting count?"
Murong Ting remained silent.
The two of them tacitly turned their gazes toward the chicken coop.
Inside the chicken coop, two proud and imposing roosters were staring warily at the two "intruders" who were about to approach them, their bright and sharp little eyes fixed on them.
Lin Cheng tugged at Murong Ting's sleeve: "Young Master Ting, can you tell which one is smaller? They all seem about the same size to me."
After looking at it for a while, Murong Ting said with certainty, "The one on the left."
Lin Cheng nodded: "Then... shall I go first?"
"Go."
Lin Cheng: "...You don't even offer a little courtesy!"
"One chicken is worth 100,000; if you catch it, you'll get a major commendation."
Lin Cheng muttered, "Give me a break. Do the math yourself. How much money do you owe me? I've never seen you pay it back. You have to catch a rabbit before you can catch a hawk. You're just trying to get something for nothing."
Murong Ting turned around, looking surprised, and said with certainty, "Lin Cheng, you've grown up."
Lin Cheng was speechless for a moment.
Ever since Young Master Ting learned that his wife was Miss Wen, he has become completely abnormal.
He took a deep breath and stepped into the chicken coop.
Upon seeing someone intruding, the two roosters crowed simultaneously.
Lin Cheng crouched down and quietly walked towards the one on the left: "Little chicken, don't be afraid, come into your brother Cheng's arms!"
As he got closer, he suddenly exerted his strength and pounced on the rooster.
"Coo coo coo coo..."
The rooster crowed and then suddenly flapped its wings and flew to the side.
Lin Cheng missed his target.
"Wow, you can fly pretty fast. Be an airplane in your next life!" Lin Cheng turned around and chased after the rooster again.
