A Pained Expression

Lu Jinsen sat there for a long time, staring at the vegetable field in front of him that had been fertilized. He had struggled countless times in his heart.

He had just thought that if he couldn’t get over it, he might as well forget it and call Meng Chuyuan back to let her do it herself.

Lu Jinsen raised his head and looked around, searching seriously for Meng Chuyuan. In the end, he realized that she had actually run to Liao Jiake with a hoe.

“…” She didn’t care about the place she was responsible for, but she was in the mood to help others.

However, considering her good intentions, he let this matter go.

In the end, he made up his mind and tore open the packaging on the mask. He got up and took the spinach seeds to the vegetable field.

[Why did Lu Jinsen let out such a pained expression?]

[It’s really hard on our unworldly young master. I can see how pained his expression is even through his mask.]

[This is such an iconic scene hahahahahahaha]

[Young Master, fly bravely. If there’s anything, carry it yourself.]

[ Lu Jinsen’s expression, I’m really speechless hahahaha.]

Everything was going smoothly at the Qi siblings Group, but something unexpected happened midway.

Their hoe fell off its handles.

Qi Yan squatted down and looked at the hoe and wooden handle that had completely fallen off. She frowned and felt helpless.

She took out the hoe that was buried in the ground and looked up at Qi Zhen with a pleading look in her eyes. “What should we do?”

Qi Zhen was dumbfounded when he saw the fallen hoe. “It’s broken?”

“It’s just loose. It’s not broken.”

“Let me see.”

Qi Zhen walked over and took the hoe and wooden handle from her hands. He even picked up the small wooden block from the ground and stuffed the hoe and wooden block back.

However, they didn’t have a hammer now, so they couldn’t stabilize the wooden handle. Hence, Qi Zhen stood the hoe upright and hit the bottom of the hoe on the hard flat ground, trying to make it firm.

After a while, Qi Zhen thought that the hoe was ready.

He returned to the vegetable field and tried the newly installed hoe. When he found that it was usable, he continued to loosen the soil.

However, the hoe only lasted for less than two minutes before it loosened again.

Qi Zhen had no choice but to stop and repair the hoe.

While they were repairing the hoe, Lu Jinsen had already scattered the seeds and started to seal the soil.

Because of Meng Chuyuan’s participation, Liao Jiake slowly caught up with everyone’s progress.

Qi Yan looked at the busy figures of the other guests and then at herself, who had no choice but to stop because the hoe had fallen off. Soon, she felt unwilling to fall behind.

When she saw that Qi Zhen had been fiddling with that hoe, her eyes gradually dimmed, and there was a hint of annoyance in her eyes.

The next second, she walked over and pushed Qi Zhen away. Her voice became louder as she felt frustrated. “I’ll do it.”

Qi Yan was an impatient person and was competitive. Seeing that Liao Jiake was about to surpass them, she naturally couldn’t control herself.

Helpless, Qi Zhen could only stand at the side and watch her make a move.

[Sister was so fierce just now. Even Qi Zhen was frightened.]

[Yan Yan might be a little anxious.]

[Why is Qi Yan so fierce to her younger brother? It’s not like he’s not fixing it on purpose.]

[Oh my god, Qi Zhen was so frightened by his sister that he didn’t dare to speak.]

[I feel that Qi Yan’s is a little too competitive. She’s actually starting to get impatient just because she wants to win .]

Qi Zhen saw that she couldn’t even find the intersection between the hoe and the wooden handle. He gently supported his chin with his hand and covered his mouth. He watched Qi Yan’s fumble around and let out a faint smile.

Perhaps it was because there was a machine filming beside her, but Qi Yan had seemed very flustered from the moment she started. She was indeed a little anxious and wanted to repair the hoe as soon as possible.

Nobody knew if it was because Qi Yan was nervous or because of the heat, but her face was ashen and her forehead was covered in sweat.

When she was handling the hoe port, she moved too quickly and used too much strength. In the end, she accidentally cut off her nail extensions.

“Ouch…” Seeing that her extensions had left her fingernail, Qi Yan could not help but be stunned. A trace of pain flashed across her eyes, as if her heart was bleeding.

Qi Zhen heard a slight tearing sound. He leaned his head over and asked worriedly, “Sister, are you injured?”

Qi Yan had just lost her nail extensions and her face was a little pale. However, she pretended to be calm and said, “I’m fine.”

Although Qi Yan did not say what had happened, Qi Zhen had already discovered that her extensions had broken.

Qi Zhen looked at her with a complicated expression. Then, he took the hoe away from her and said softly, “Let me do it.”

At the same time…

Meng Chuyuan helped Liao Jiake finish turning the soil. Liao Jiake felt that the remaining tasks were not as tiresome, so she felt bad accepting Meng Chuyuan’s help on it. “Teacher Meng, I can handle the rest alone. Go back and rest.”

Meng Chuyuan raised her eyes and looked at her indifferently. “Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure.”

Since it was Liao Jiake who offered, Meng Chuyuan did not decline. “Alright, I’ll go back then.”

However, before leaving, Meng Chuyuan casually mentioned to Liao Jiake, “I see a tap in front. You can find a water pipe and connect it back. Pull the water pipe over here to use it. That way, you won’t have to go through the trouble of fetching water.”

[Sister Meng is so smart. She also observes her surroundings so carefully. I love her.]

[Although it’s a small matter, she’s the only one who noticed it. It’s obvious that she is really meticulous!!]

[I really like Sister Meng too much. She can think of things that others can’t think of. Moreover, she doesn’t show off at all. It really feels like it’s effortless for her.]

[I’m clearly here for Ke Ke, but I’ve become a fan of Sister Meng this time. Boohoo.]

Meng Chuyuan took her hoe and left. Sbe happened to pass by Qi Zhen’s vegetable field and saw them repairing the hoe that had lost its handle.

She subconsciously changed her route and walked towards them.

Qi Yan watched from the side for a long time, but Qi Zhen did not repair the hoe. She questioned, “Do you really know how to repair it?”

Qi Zhen’s face was stern as he said calmly, “Give me more time.”

At this moment, Meng Chuyuan walked over. She vaguely felt that the atmosphere here was not right.

However, due to special circumstances, Meng Chuyuan did not think too much about it. She came up and asked, “Is your hoe broken?”

When the siblings heard this, they looked up.

When Qi Zhen saw that the person walking over was Meng Chuyuan, he could not help but be stunned for a moment before nodding gently.

“Use mine.” The next second, Meng Chuyuan handed him her hoe.

Seeing Meng Chuyuan, for some reason, Qi Zhen felt that he had finally found a silver lining. A smile gradually appeared on his serious face.

Qi Zhen said gently, “If you give us the hoe, what will happen to your land?”

Although they really needed a hoe now, Qi Zhen did not forget that Meng Chuyuan was also doing a mission.

Meng Chuyuan looked at Lu Jinsen, who was diligently watering the plants not far away, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Qi Zhen followed her gaze and looked over curiously. When he realized that Lu Jinsen had already completed the last step, a complicated expression appeared in his eyes.
