A Favor Done, A Husband Won-Chapter 570 - 564: Sweet Extra—Husband and Wife Variety Show 49

The morning passed quickly, and once everyone got into the groove, each team collected about two buckets on average. The director called over a rubber expert to estimate the price they might sell for, and they found they were still halfway short of the funds they needed. However, it was much faster than expected. After some discussion, they decided to head back to the B&B for lunch, change into more comfortable clothes, and work hard in the afternoon.

After all, by this time in the morning, everyone’s clothes were soaked with sweat and looked quite disheveled, and most of the sunscreen on their faces had been washed away, so they needed to freshen up a bit.

After temporarily wrapping up and returning to the B&B, Shi Su took a shower, changed clothes, and went straight into the kitchen.

Xv Qingqing had also finished her shower and dried her hair. The two had agreed to cook lunch together for everyone today.

"It’s hot, let’s have something cold. I can make some cold noodles and wheat noodles," said Xv Qingqing, who was from Shanxi and particularly good at making these dishes.

"Sure, sure, then I’ll stir-fry some simple dishes. What everyone bought this morning should be just enough. Something light to go with your cold noodles. That sounds perfect." Shi Su said as she turned to wash the vegetables. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Zhang Kerong was just about to grab flour when she suddenly walked in with a smile, "What are you planning to make? Let me help out."

Shi Su glanced back at her, smiled politely, and then returned her focus.

Zhang Kerong looked at Shi Su’s outfit and asked in surprise, "Shi Su, you’re not wearing any makeup?"

"I just came over after showering, didn’t have time to put any on," Shi Su answered while washing the vegetables, not turning her head.

Xv Qingqing laughed and said, "Shi Su didn’t seem to wear makeup this morning either, just some sunscreen and barrier cream. She might have put on some lipstick before heading out? I didn’t see any blush or eyeshadow."

"Yeah, right," Shi Su responded.

Zhang Kerong let out a disbelieving click, "We’re filming a show here."

"No worries, I’ve often been caught makeup-free by fans and station sisters at the airport. Everyone’s used to it. Putting on lipstick is already my way of respecting the camera," Shi Su said with a laugh as she washed the vegetables, while also asking offhandedly, "Kerong, can you handle minced garlic? I’m planning to cook some garlic-flavored dishes. You could help mince some."

"Uh, not really," Zhang Kerong said, but she still moved closer to Shi Su, observing what she was doing, then turned to look at a few cucumbers on Xv Qingqing’s side, "How about I wash the cucumbers instead?"

Xv Qingqing smiled politely, "Sure, go ahead and wash them."

"Qinqin, you’re working with the dough over there. If I splash water on the dough while washing cucumbers, it won’t be good, so I’ll take them to Shi Su’s side to wash," Zhang Kerong said as she brought the cucumbers over to the faucet in front of Shi Su.

Shi Su discreetly stepped back to avoid getting splashed, carrying a basin of washed vegetables to the cutting board.

Zhang Kerong took her place, earnestly washing the few cucumbers while casually chatting with them about private women’s topics, mostly involving curiosity a young unmarried girl might have about the lives of married women.

There wasn’t much to hide, so Xv Qingqing and Shi Su shared what they knew. The three women busily chatted in the kitchen, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

It took Zhang Kerong a full ten minutes to finally wash four cucumbers. As she turned and walked behind Shi Su, she casually asked, "Does Mr. Jing often cook at home too?"
