Chapter 71: Qing Ling eats meat and Hongming Chen eats steamed buns.
Seventy-one:
Jiaxu Qi is pitching his tent again.
I say again, because he'd already hitched a ride once before.
But he just stood too far away from Qing Ling and didn't take a close look, so this time when he pitched his tent, he still wouldn't know how to do it.
Qing Ling followed his example and stood behind him, instructing him on how to ride.
"Can't you pitch it with me?" Jiaxu Qi disgruntled, "It's not like this is my tent alone."
Qing Ling pointed to her own half of the building, calmly said, "But my part is already built, and you didn't help me just now, Xiao Xu. Besides, you don't know how to do it yet, I have to teach you first."
"Xiao Xu?" Jiaxu Qi was speechless, how did he become Xiao Xu?
Qing Ling smiled, bright and innocent, "You just said you won't let me call you brother after I'm done, you call me brother."
Jiaxu Qi: ......
Jiaxu Qi turned his head and continued to pitch his tent, not wanting to talk to him.
Qing Ling just stood by and watched, old-fashioned and concerned.
He'd slowed down on purpose, but he didn't realize that their group was still the first to set up.
Is this someone else who won't?
Qing Ling received the ingredients and wondered.
The two of them were the first to go, so they had more options. Jiaxu Qi wanted to take the rice, and Qing Ling asked him, "Do you know how to steam rice?"
"Who doesn't know how to steam rice? Just put it in the rice cooker."
"Good point!" Qing Ling nods, "So did you bring the rice cooker?"
Jiaxu Qi: ......
Jiaxu Qi looks to the crew.
The program staff pointed to the steamer and wok on the table and said, "Those are the only two."
Jiaxu Qi had to ask Qing Ling , "Do you know how to steam?"
Qing Ling nods, "But I think noodles are easier to cook."
Jiaxu Qi could not, had to go along with him took noodles, eggs, tomatoes, green peppers and meat.
We also received other utensils such as steamers, frying pans and dishes.
He looked at the pot in his hand and then looked around, "There isn't a kitchen here either, how can I cook?"
Qing Ling did not move and gave him a look, thinking that he had really just grown older without growing a brain.
I guess it's also a better family and I don't usually cook, let alone in these mountains.
"Will you?" Jiaxu Qi asked him.
Qing Ling nodded, "A little."
"Then you will be in charge." Jiaxu Qi said.
Qing Ling didn't have a problem with that, "But you have to help me out, otherwise, I won't be able to keep myself busy."
"Okay." Jiaxu Qi agreed.
Qing Ling of course knows how to cook, on the day he just crossed over, he had a misunderstanding about Chen Yu, he didn't like Chen Yu, and he also saw the cook's dog-eyed and sarcastic manner, that's why he said with an innocent face that he doesn't know how to cook.
Then the family got a new cook, and he was so busy filming that he didn't cook much, and this was pretty much the first time he'd cooked since he'd crossed over.
He had just eaten a packet of cookies and wasn't very hungry, but Jiaxu Qi was already hungry and urged him, "Let's start now."
Before Qing Ling had a chance to speak, she heard Hongming Chen call out to Jiaxu Qi, "Xiao Xu, why don't you come over here and help us set up our tents."
He certainly wasn't going to turn to Qing Ling for help, so he just smiled and looked at Jiaxu Qi , "Yours is all set."
Jiaxu Qi was sorry to refuse him, so he had to endure his hunger and walked over to help Hongming Chen and the others set up their tents.
Seeing this, Qing Ling walked over to the others to have a look as well.
Tanghua Qi is pitching a tent with Yan Wan, two girls who are slow at this sort of thing, not to mention they don't know how to do it.
After a while, Yan Wan felt a bit annoyed, but Tanghua Qi kept patiently comforting her.
When Qing Ling passes by, she sees that they've made a mistake again, and Yan Wan throws the equipment in her hand in anger.
"It's not like that, it has to be."
He picked up the materials on the floor and helped them with the demonstration, then said to Yan Wan, "Come and help."
Yan Wan then came back to his senses and rushed over to him.
Tanghua Qi also watched his movements carefully.
After Qing Ling helped them for a while, Yue Wang came over and asked, "Qing Ling, can you help us?"
Qing Ling glanced at their fledgling tent, "Didn't you guys set it up okay?"
"It's not good either." Yue Wang said, "And it's too tiring, you've been helping Tong Tong and the others for so long, help us out too."
Qing Ling was reluctant.
Tanghua Qi and Yan Wan are arguably the weakest group right now, as they are only two, and girls.
Girls are naturally less strong than boys, plus there are few of them and they don't know how to, so it's only natural for him to help out a bit.
But Yue Wang, they obviously know how to do it, and there are three of them, so it's hard to avoid being a bit opportunistic when they come to ask for their help at this time.
Qing Ling laughed, "But there are only two of them, and there are three of you. If I go, you'll be four, twice as many as the two of them."
With a sincere look on his face, he suggested, "I think Chen's side has quite a lot of people, and they're all boys, so you can either go ask him about it, or Jiaxu Qi will be pitching a tent as well."
When he said that, Yue Wang could not insist, so he said, "Okay then," and turned to leave.
Yan Wan grunted, gave Yue Wang a disdainful look, and smiled again at Qing Ling, "Thank you, Qing Ling."
"You're welcome."
Qing Ling finished her reply and looked at Yue Wang's back, seeing her walking towards Hongming Chen and the others.
Yue Wang did not ask Jiaxu Qi directly, but rather asked Hongming Chen, who was obviously the leader of the group by default.
Hongming Chen was so impressed that he lent Jiaxu Qi out with a wave of his hand.
Inexplicably lent Jiaxu Qi: ......
Jiaxu Qi silently glanced at Hongming Chen, a slight dissatisfaction rising in her heart.
Yue Wang wants him to help, but it turns out that Hongming Chen is the one who asked, not him. Hongming Chen wants to say yes to her, but he doesn't even ask what he thinks.
Even the thank you, Yue Wang said to Hongming Chen, as if it was Hongming Chen who wanted to help him.
Is he a dead man? Don't even need to ask him what he thinks?
Disgruntled, Jiaxu Qi and Yue Wang walked over to their tent and perfunctorily helped her pitch it.
Jiaxu Qi left, and Hongming Chen continued to set up tents with Shu Su and Boming Ji.
But in no time, there was a problem.
"It's not like that." Shu Su said.
"That's it, that's how it was just hitched." Hongming Chen felt he was right.
Boming Ji didn't say a word, pretending he didn't exist.
Shu Su looked at him and affirmed, "That certainly wasn't the case just now."
"How was that?"
"I forgot." Shu Su said softly, "But surely that's not it."
Hongming Chen: ......
Hongming Chen thought he was looking for trouble.
"That's it." He said with some impatience, "Since you've forgotten and I remember, just listen to me."
Shu Su sniffs and takes a step back, sitting down, "Ride on then."
He was calm, "I'll have to tear it down later anyway, I'm not doing anything useless."
Hongming Chen: ......
Hongming Chen thought that he was really just like the rumors, he had a good personality and was not easy to get along with.
Hongming Chen gambled, "OK."
He started hitching with Boming Ji, and Shu Su just watched, like he didn't have a care in the world.
However, within twenty minutes, Hongming Chen realized that he seemed to be wrong.
By this time, Tanghua Qi and Yan Wan have already set up.
Yue Wang, Lanzhi Ding and Jinghan Sun followed.
For a while, Hongming Chen turned into the last place.
The scary thing is, he's not done hitching.
He hurriedly called out, "Xiao Xu, come over here for a moment."
Jiaxu Qi, who feels like she can finally eat: ......
Shu Su looked at the sky speechlessly, thinking that he could really put people at his beck and call.
Jiaxu Qi had no choice but to walk over and accompany him to set up his tent.
Shu Su saw him coming and stood up, too, and resumed moving.
When the tent was finally set up and they went to collect the ingredients, there were only buns left.
It's probably been sitting on the table for a long time and has hardened slightly.
Hongming Chen is shocked, "That's all we eat?"
"You're in last place." The staff said.
Hongming Chen how did not expect him to be reduced to eating steamed buns, almost two eyes black, falling tears.
Qing Ling smiled as he planned to place the pot closer to Hongming Chen in a moment.
Better gluttonize him.
Jiaxu Qi far away to see him only steamed buns, for no reason some happy, once happy, remembered that he had not eaten.
"Let's get cooking." He looked to Qing Ling , "I'm starving."
Qing Ling gave him a look, and he said, "That'll work, too, except you'll have to go find some rocks first."
"Stone?"
"How else do you sit the pot on it?"
Jiaxu Qi thought it seemed as if that was the case.
"Then we'll go together."
"I'll leave it for a while, I'll look around and see if there's a water source."
"Didn't they give us mineral water?" Jiaxu Qi pointed to the bucket beside her.
"Just one bucket, and you're going to wash your face and feet with mineral water?"
Jiaxu Qi: ......
"Go," Qing Ling dismissed him, "and pick up some twigs back here, more of them."
He turned toward the staff not far away.
Jiaxu Qi was unable to do so, and had to find rocks and pick up branches on his own.
Qing Ling asked the staff if there is a water source here.
The staff pointed him in a direction, "There's a creek over there."
Qing Ling took the pots issued by the staff and was ready to check out the creek.
Yan Wan had a sharp eye and spoke to Tanghua Qi, and hurriedly followed with the basin.
" Qing Ling, where are you going?" She asked.
"There seems to be a stream up ahead, I'll get some water so I can wash my face."
Yan Wan thought that he knew a lot, and thought that it was good that he had followed her up, or else she and Tanghua Qi would not have enough water in one bucket.
"You know quite a bit."
"Asked the staff." Qing Ling said.
"I wouldn't have thought of that." She scratched her head, "We're not even close to last season."
"Last season was all about traveling beautifully, just playing, and only doing the occasional quest, and with our season, it's become quite a bit more, it's almost like outdoor survival."
Qing Ling laughed a little, thinking that this is not survival, but an experience at the end of the day.
Yan Wan continued, "By the way, how do you cook? Tong Tong said you can dig a pit, put some branches in it to light a fire, and sit the pot on it."
"It is possible." Qing Ling said, "But I guess I'll take the stones and base it again."
"It's a shame we can't share ingredients or pair up, or we could group up."
Qing Ling smiled, "It's fine, you can ask me if you don't know anything."
"Thank you in advance." Yan Wan said happily, "You look like a student, but you know quite a lot."
"It's okay." Qing Ling said.
