Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the end, Murong Qiao and Xian Yu naturally won first place in the rice harvesting compet.i.tion.

The second place was Qin Huan’s team, but the third place was taken down by Lu Qizhi.

“The first and second place will obtain the right to change houses. As for the third place, it can be raised by a level.”

The executive director announced the final results.

When Lu Qizhi heard that there was no third place to change, his face immediately turned visibly disappointed. Then, when he heard the director say that it could be upgraded, he suddenly erupted in cheers.

“At that moment, Lu Qizhi finally understood what the ups and downs of life were.”

“Look at how happy the child is.”

“It still depends on the executive director to keep people in suspense.”

“Lu Qizhi really worked hard today. Fortunately, there’s a reward.”

Se??ch ?ew?o?e? /o?g o? ?oo?l?

“Watch your image.” Sannas held him down in disdain, but the corners of his mouth curled up. He was clearly happy too.

Being able to leave the stone house was good news. At the very least, Lu Qizhi had a proper toilet and could prevent the same mistake from happening.

But in comparison, Guo Ran and Chu Ruobai’s group were not as happy.

Guo Ran had already been angered by Murong Qiao today and had nowhere to vent his anger. Now that he saw that the group of people who were originally in trouble with them had also recovered, his face became even darker. His entire body was emitting a low pressure, causing the others to not dare to go over and speak.

“In addition, there are also hidden rewards for the first place. Please come over to collect them later.”

Seeing that the situation was not good, the executive director quickened his pace and said, “Let’s end today’s event here. Next, everyone can look around and familiarize themselves with the village.”

As soon as the executive director said this, Guo Ran impatiently turned around and left.

The others also relaxed and looked curiously at the surroundings of the village before scattering.

“After I claim the reward, we’ll go home and rest for a while.” Xian Yu heaved a sigh of relief, his face revealing some fatigue.

Recording songs for a concert was incomparable to farm work. After bending down for so long and repeating a few actions, coupled with the scorching sun, Xian Yu could only stand because of his physical fitness.

Murong Qiao nodded in agreement when she saw Xian Yu walking towards the director, but his posture was a little awkward.

Xian Yu turned his body slightly and walked over. His posture was inevitably a little twisted when he walked, causing Murong Qiao to notice. She narrowed her eyes and looked carefully for a while before realizing that her Fifth Brother seemed to have deliberately hidden his left hand so that she couldn’t see it.

She frowned in confusion and subconsciously rubbed her hands. Her palms immediately hurt from the pulling.

Only then did Murong Qiao remember that she had already become numb when he collected the rice today, so her hands were numb and painful.

Moreover, she had done very little. Her hands were red and sensitive. It hurt even if she moved slightly.

But Fifth Brother didn’t rest much the entire time…

Murong Qiao frowned and saw Xian Yu return.

“Both of us can choose. I’ll wait for you.” Xian Yu smiled and stood back beside her.

The hidden reward provided by the production team could satisfy an additional request that was not too much, or choose some daily necessities provided by them.

After all, people in the countryside no longer had the option of circulating money to buy things. It was inevitable that there would be many inconveniences in their lives.

Murong Qiao glanced around. The production team had considered everything. They had a share of the mosquito repellent and other daily necessities. Clearly, they understood what the village needed.

But these were not what she needed the most.

“I’ll take this.” Murong Qiao didn’t hesitate at all and took away a medicine that was useful for treating external injuries.

This was just right for Fifth Brother.

The sky was a little dark. After the viciousness of the sun faded, it became dark and gentle, showing signs of gradually sinking down the mountain.

In the evening, the perspiration that she had been sweating all afternoon was blown by the gradually cold wind, immediately making her feel gooseb.u.mps.

“Big Brother, let’s go home.” Murong Qiao took the initiative to hold Xian Yu’s arm and walk back.

Their house was very easy to recognize above the village, and there was no risk of getting lost. They could reach the courtyard in about 10 minutes on foot.

The two of them walked side by side on the village path. Xian Yu’s footsteps were big, and after taking a few steps, he deliberately slowed down and even changed positions with his Little Sister.

“You walk on this side.” Xian Yu naturally changed sides.

Murong Qiao looked at him and didn’t find anything different about the two sides of the path. However, a little warmth gradually rose from her body. Only then did she realize that Xian Yu had given her the sun.

At this moment, it was warm to bask in the sun. The heat made her body relax a lot.

When they returned to their residence, Xian Yu took the initiative to pull Murong Qiao to sit down on the sofa.

“Take out your hand.” Xian Yu gestured.

Murong Qiao did as she was told. “You want to give me something?”

“What?” Xian Yu slapped her wrist angrily. “Your hands are already so red…”

He sighed. Then, Murong Qiao saw Xian Yu take out a tube of the same medicine she had just taken from the director.

“Don’t move. I’ll apply some medicine for you.” Xian Yu first wiped her hands clean with a wet wipe.

Murong Qiao coughed. “Then… what about my tube?”

The next second, she took out the same medicine from her pocket.

Xian Yu paused and looked up at Murong Qiao, looking confused.

Perhaps neither of them expected them to choose the same thing. For a moment, Murong Qiao and Xian Yu fell silent again.

“Seeing the question marks on the siblings’ faces, I really laughed until my stomach hurt, but I also felt that it was really warm…”

“Thinking about each other… Boohoo, I can do it again!!!”

“Seeing Moon G.o.ddess take out the medicine, the corners of Big Brother’s mouth secretly curled up. d.a.m.n it! Am I the only one who noticed this small detail?”

“The strange tacit understanding had increased!”

Murong Qiao really didn’t expect Xian Yu to choose the same medicine as her. The two of them can’t even finish a single tube, let alone the second one.

“Is anyone there—” Lu Qizhi’s voice suddenly came from outside.

Murong Qiao subconsciously replied, “Lu Qizhi?”

“It’s me, it’s me!” A head popped out of the door and yelled.

Lu Qizhi waved her hand happily and pulled the expressionless Sannas in.

The two of them were in third place, so their accommodation after leveling up happened to be beside Murong Qiao and Xian Yu. They could even be considered neighbors now.

“We came over to greet you.” Lu Qizhi walked over.

Hearing Lu Qizhi’s hesitant tone, Sannas took the initiative to add the second half for him. “We also wanted to come over for a free meal.”

Who asked the two men not to know how to cook? Lu Qizhi secretly brought two bags of instant noodles and finished them.

Even if there were ingredients, Sannas and Lu Qizhi didn’t know how to use them.

“What is this? Two young masters who never did anything?”

“There were all kinds of ingredients, but they were useless even if they were given to them!”

“Lu Qizhi is still fine. Sannas had wanted to eat an apple just now, but as he peeled, there was only the core left.”

In short, if these two people didn’t freeload, they could only starve.

“Neither of us knows how to cook, so…” Lu Qizhi seemed to feel awkward saying it out loud, so he coughed and looked at Murong Qiao in embarra.s.sment.

Murong Qiao had no objections. She turned to look at Xian Yu.

“Prepare the ingredients yourself.” Since his Little Sister had no objections, Xian Yu naturally didn’t have any either.

Lu Qizhi cheered and supported himself with his hands on the sofa, wanting to jump up. In the end, because his hands were scratched in the afternoon, he sat back down obediently in pain.

“Oh right, this is for you.” Murong Qiao handed him the extra tube of medicine.

“I took this from the production team. You can apply it yourself or give it to others..”
