Weve benefited from you today. In the future, well be able to eat delicious food for dinner. We finally dont have to work hard to chop firewood anymore! Meng Xi said happily. We dont have to worry about some despicable people stealing firewood!

Everyone present knew who the little person was referring to.

Its all because everyone helped look for Zhuangzhuang. Its not all my fault, Yu Su said with a smile. After saying that, she turned to look at Xiao Han. As you can see, Zhuangzhuang and his grandmothers living conditions are not good. Why did you agree to her invitation?

Yu Sus question was also the question in everyones hearts. Now, everyone was also looking at Xiao Han, waiting for his explanation.

I just want to help them. Xiao Hans voice was calm as he only said this.

???

Everyone was puzzled. They looked at each other, but Xiao Hans next explanation did not come.

..

Are you sure? Yu Su looked doubtful.

Xiao Han nodded. Just wait and see.

After a whole day of recuperation, everyone returned to work the next day in high spirits.

Todays mission was to go to the orchard where the villagers worked together to help the villagers pick fruits.

This time, the task of picking fruits was still carried out in groups. The group that picked the most fruits today could choose the ingredients first at noon.

The portioning of food was still the same. Each team could choose one piece of meat and three vegetables, but the portions were different. One serving was bigger than the other.

Since this was everyones first time picking fruits, the production team specially invited an experienced villager to explain to everyone how to distinguish the qualified fruits. In the end, he would be the one to count the amount of qualified fruits collected in each team.

After the villagers detailed explanation, Yu Sus group quickly mastered the trick of distinguis.h.i.+ng fruits. When Yu Miaos group was almost done learning, the compet.i.tion officially began.

Picking fruits seemed simple, but it was actually quite tiring.

Less than an hour after the compet.i.tion began, everyone felt like they had been working for hours.

Because they had to raise their arms often, it wouldnt be long before their arms felt sore and swollen.

Yu Miao, dont force yourself. Rest for a while. Yu Ruo stopped Yu Miao, who wanted to continue picking fruits, with heartache.

Yu Miao glanced at Yu Su, who was still picking fruits neatly. She pursed her lips and shook her head. She raised her arm with difficulty and used all her strength to pluck a fruit.

The arm holding the scissors was sore, causing the scissors to fall. The sharp head of the scissors was inserted into the soil, only a few centimeters away from Yu Miaos toes. She was so frightened that she screamed.

Ah!!

Yu Miao! Yu Ruo immediately threw down the fruit and scissors and squatted down to check on Yu Miao.

Its alright, its just a false alarm. Ye Chang immediately followed her. Yu Miao, you should go and rest first.

Yu Ruo helped the frightened Yu Miao to a shady place and sat down. You dont have to work hard. Your own safety is more important.

Yu Ruo glanced at Yu Su, who was still picking fruits without looking back. He immediately felt that she was cold-blooded and heartless. Her sister was almost injured, but she could still pick fruits without changing her expression.

Some people are really cold-blooded. They didnt even come over to care when their companion was almost injured. They only want to pick fruits. As expected, theyre cold-blooded people who only care about winning. Yu Ruos voice was neither loud or soft, just enough to reach Yu Sus ears.

You! Meng Xi was a straightforward person. In the face of such indirect criticism, she immediately wanted to retort, but Yu Su stopped her.

Theres no need to care about what others think. Yu Su comforted Meng Xi, then turned around and said meaningfully, You should act within your limits. If you know that you cant do it, but you still insist on doing it, you shouldnt blame others for your injuries. Ive never seen such a shameless person.

Who are you calling shameless! Of course, Yu Ruo couldnt stand such a sarcastic tone.

Whoever speaks up is shameless. Yu Su glanced at Yu Ruo indifferently. I have reason to suspect that Big Star Yus words just now are deliberately delaying our team so that your team can get a chance to choose the ingredients first.

Dont talk nonsense. 1 never had such thoughts. If our team wants to defeat you, theres no need to use such methods! The more Yu Ruo looked at Yu Sus calm expression, the angrier he became.

This was what Yu Su had been waiting for. She immediately smiled at him and said, You said it yourself. Since Big Star Yu doesnt have such thoughts, well continue picking fruits..
