Wang Zixiao shrugged. “I can’t cook. Chu Nan seems to know a little. I’ll be in the same group with him.”
Sui Yuan immediately pulled Wang Zixiao and Chu Nan and was about to hang on them like a koala. He wailed, “I want to be in the same group as you.”
Jiang Tongtong’s face turned pale.
She pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “I can be alone.”
Wu Ju said calmly, “I’m also included. 1’11 be in the same group as Jiang Tongtong.”
Only then did everyone realize that Wu Ju didn’t exclude himself.
Wu Ju looked at Jiang Tongtong and said, “Let’s start from our group today. We’ll take turns everyday. Jiang Tongtong, go and start the fire while 1 pick up the sweet potatoes.”
After saying that, Wu Ju left.
He was not asking for the opinion of others, but informing them.
Jiang Tongtong also went to the kitchen silently. There was also a back door in the kitchen. When she opened the door and went out, she saw the firewood.
The grouping was clear, not giving them a chance to make their own arrangements.
Sui Yuan shook his head. “I’m used to a fast-paced life. It might not be a bad thing to relax. During this period of time, we can calm our mind and get close to nature.”
Wang Zixiao stretched and said with a smile, “There’s really nothing we can do now. We agreed too rashly last night. If we’re chased away now, we’ll lose face.”
Mu Xue clapped her hands and stood up. “We’ll be doing farm work tomorrow. I’ll go down the mountain to buy some gloves in town later. Do you want them? I’ll also buy some ingredients.”
Lu Qiuran raised her hand. “I’ll go with Xue.”
Sui Yuan, Wang Zixiao, and Chu Nan looked at each other and immediately said, “Then let’s go together. In any case, we don’t have to do these things today. It’s good to buy something. Otherwise, when we cook, we won’t know what to do.”
The five of them looked at each other and smiled.
Wu Ju carried the basket on his back and walked down the path. There was a piece of land below that was used to plant sweet potatoes.
Jiang Tongtong was starting a fire. The netizens in her live-streaming room were all waiting to criticize her at any time.
However, they did not expect Jiang Tongtong to actually be good at housework. She started the fire and put the water in the pot. Then, she went to wash the rice and put it in the pot.
It did not look like she was used to living a good life at all.
When Wu Ju returned, he peeled the sweet potatoes and cut them into small pieces before putting them in the pot.
When Wu Ju returned, he praised, “Not bad. I thought you wouldn’t be able to do these houseworks. I didn’t expect you to do it so well.”
Jiang Tongtong felt that Wu Ju seemed to know that she wanted to be praised. She was a little embarrassed. “It’s very simple.”
After washing his hands, Wu Ju went to find a jar to pick pickles.
Jiang Tongtong found everything novel. “Master Lu, do you know everything?”
In the past few days, when she found out that all of this was homemade, she felt that it was amazing.
Wu Ju said calmly, “I only know what I need to know to survive. I don’t know everything.”
Jiang Tongtong lowered her eyes. “You’re already very capable.”
Half an hour later, the sweet potato porridge was ready. It was a faint purple color, and the sweet potatoes were soft and fragrant.
Wu Ju stirred the shredded vegetables and said, “Put out the fire. We can eat now.”
Lu Qiuran, Mu Xue, and the others had put on makeup. After eating, they went to town.
The production team did not restrict their freedom. Otherwise, it would be so boring staying in the mountains.
After breakfast, Jiang Tongtong helped clean up the dishes.
Wu Ju carried the basket and was about to leave when Jiang Tongtong quickly asked, “Master Lu, what are you going to do?”
Wu Ju said, “To pick herbs. If you’re bored, you can go with us.”
Jiang Tongtong wanted to go, but sometimes, she felt awkward and could not bring herself to say it. This was what she was waiting for. She immediately nodded.
She went to change her shoes and followed Wu Ju down the mountain.
In a week, Sui Yuan would suddenly have epilepsy.
Sui Yuan’s epilepsy was a hereditary disease. Wu Ju planned to cure him.
Lu Qiuran wanted to ruin his reputation, but he would not listen to her.
Picking herbs was a boring process. Not many people watched. Zhang Pan, who was carrying a camera, was still working diligently.
There was a village at the foot of the mountain, but they did not go down.
Along the way, Wu Ju would introduce the herbs he picked to Jiang Tongtong. Jiang Tongtong found it very interesting. Perhaps she did not understand it, but she still listened attentively.
Zhang Pan looked at the phone that was broadcasting at the same time and felt depressed. Everyone was cursing Jiang Tongtong for being a green tea b*tch.
Zhang Pan felt that it was a good thing that the two of them did not look at the phone. Otherwise, they would have broken down.
When they arrived at the mountainside, they sat down to rest. Wu Ju saw that Jiang Tongtong’s face was a little pale. He took out some herbs and crushed two leaves between his fingers. “Child, your physique is too weak. You are already panting. Come over and let me massage you.”
Jiang Tongtong obediently walked over and sat down. Wu Ju reached out and gently pressed Jiang Tongtong’s temples. The herbs were a little cool, and Jiang Tongtong felt that the discomfort gradually subsided.
When Zhang Pan saw this scene, he felt that it was a little magical. He watched as Jiang Tongtong’s pale face gradually turned rosy. He glanced at the live-streaming room and saw that everyone was sneering at them..
