[Shen Chun doesn’t seem to be so annoying anymore. Although she only cares about herself, she doesn’t kidnap others morally.]
[Shen Chun isn’t annoying enough? Who’s annoying enough? Don’t forget that she also morally kidnapped Yu Su previously!]
When Ding Chen cut the firewood and entered the kitchen, Yu Su and the other two had just finished processing the ingredients.
Yu Su used these ingredients to make a carrot corn pork rib soup and a mapo tofu.
Although there were only two dishes, the four of them still ate with relish.
“I’m so full. Sure enough, the food 1 traded for is the best!” Meng Xi touched her round stomach and sighed.
Yu Su was about to respond when Ding Chen suddenly stood up and walked away.
…..
“What’s wrong?” Yu Su was a little confused.
A few seconds later, a loud burp sounded.
II II
After a short silence, the three of them suddenly began to laugh.
Even the staff present were amused by this sudden burp.
If not for the fact that they remembered that they were still filming, the audience might hear laughter that not only belongs to Yu Su and the other two.
Ding Chen scratched his head in embarrassment. “I’m sorry, Yu Su’s dishes are too delicious. 1 couldn’t help but eat a little too much.”
Meng Xi smiled and said, “I understand very well. I almost became like you. Fortunately, I held back.”
After lunch was the lunch break.
At two in the afternoon, everyone returned to the orchard to continue working.
As they had agreed to go to Zhuangzhuang’s house for dinner, the director arranged for the staff to prepare dinner for Yu Miao and the rest in advance.
In the afternoon, the villagers who were picking fruits in the orchard got off work. Everyone ended their work, but the filming continued.
The production team’s photographers were divided into two groups. One group followed Yu Su and the others to Zhuangzhuang for dinner and filming today, while the other group stayed in the courtyard with Yu Miao and the others. They would exchange the photos the next day.
This way, not only would it not delay their work, but they would also be able to do what they had promised Zhuangzhuang’s grandmother. It would be the best of both worlds.
“What was the solution you mentioned yesterday?” Yu Su asked Xiao Han as she walked.
Xiao Han smiled. “You’ll know when we get to Zhuangzhuang’s house.”
“Xiao Han, you’re so unkind. How can you keep everyone in suspense like this?” Ding Chen teased him with a smile.
After interacting with him, Ding Chen realized that although Xiao Han looked cold, he was actually not as difficult to get along with as he looked. On the contrary, he was quite enthusiastic.
When he saw that anyone in the team was tired, Xiao Han would take the initiative to help. Sometimes, when he saw that he was too tired, he would help him finish chopping firewood without a word.
As they chatted and laughed, everyone arrived at Zhuangzhuang’s house.
It was still the same red wooden door that had lost some paint. It was still the same low wall made of red bricks. However, when they walked into the small courtyard, everyone widened their eyes in surprise.
The small unfurnished bungalow had already been renovated.
Not only was the rough concrete floor covered in white anti-slip tiles, but the bare walls had also been painted with white environmentally friendly latex paint.
The only two electrical appliances in the house, an old super heavy television and an old yellow refrigerator, had all been changed to the latest model.
There were also sofas, tables, chairs, and a series of furniture that looked brand new.
In addition, there were a lot of home appliances that were not there before.
“This is…” Yu Su looked around the room and then at Xiao Han. “Did you prepare this?”
Xiao Han nodded.
Meng Xi asked soulfully, “Isn’t this a little too much?”
“This is the return gift for yesterday’s meal.” Xiao Han’s expression did not change.
Ding Chen gave him a thumbs up without hesitation.
“Will you…” Yu Su was a little worried that Zhuangzhuang and his grandmother would feel that they had been given charity.
Xiao Han understood what she meant and explained, “The Xiao Corporation allocates a portion of the funds every year to support the families of poor children. Granny spent so much money to treat me to a meal yesterday and said she’ll cover my dinner in the next few days. No matter what, I should thank Granny.”
“Does Granny know that you’re renovating her house?” Yu Su looked at him.
Xiao Han was curious why she asked this. “Of course. 1 just want to give you a thank-you gift and sponsor Zhuangzhuang. I’m not a bandit. 1 won’t barge into someone’s house without permission.”
“I was thinking too much.” Yu Su silently changed her words. “This is probably the gentleness that only rich people have..”
