Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hearing Meng Chuyuan’s request, Lu Jinsen seemed to be petrified.
He looked at the pile of firewood under his feet in a daze and could not help but frown.
Coincidentally, Liao Jiayan was standing not far away. She thought that Lu Jinsen was hesitating because he did not have an ax in his hand, so she found one from her toolbox.
Liao Jiayan walked up to him and handed him the ax in her hand. “Here’s an
Looking at the ax that Liao Jiayan handed over, Lu Jinsen took it without changing his expression and thanked her.
However, he took the ax from Liao Jiayan without hesitation because the ax was rather heavy. He was too embarrassed to let her hold it for too long. Now that he had the ax in his hand, he hesitated again.
When the viewers in the live-stream saw that Lu Jinsen was in a dilemma, they were completely amused.
[Good job delivering the ax Liao Jiayan!!]
[I recalled Lu Jinsen chopping firewood in the first episode. These dead memories are suddenly attacking me, hahaha.]
[Young Master: It’s enough to lose face once. Why are you making things difficult for me?]
[The firewood this time is shorter. It shouldn’t be that difficult to split, right? If
Lu Jinsen can’t split it open this time, he will have trained his muscles for nothing…]
Thinking back, when Lu Jinsen first came to film the variety show, he had also taken an ax to Split the firewood. However. at that time he had spent a lot of effort to split the firewood but to no avail.
‘ Why didn’t the culinary class teach him how to chop firewood?
Lu Jinsen held the ax in his hand. He squatted down halfway and erected the log on the ground. He raised the ax and swung it down hard. In the end, he did not hit the log and it fell.
Meng Chuyuan saw how clumsy he was in chopping firewood and could not help but put her hand to his forehead.
She really couldn’t bear to watch him.
When Lu Jinsen was about to try again, Meng Chuyuan suddenly walked over and reached out for the ax. She suggested that they change shifts. “Leave it to me. Go wash the vegetables over there.”
Lu Jinsen’s expression suddenly turned cold when he saw her say that she wanted to chop the firewood. He suddenly felt that he had failed.
“Let me do it.” Regardless of whether today’s scene was being filmed or not, Lu Jinsen felt that such heavy work should not be done by a girl.
Meng Chuyuan took the ax from him. She bent down and helped the log up. She pressed the ax against the wooden stake. Then, she raised the ax and hacked down forcefully.
Lu Jinsen opened his mouth and was about to say to Meng Chuyuan, “You aren’t going to be able to hack it.” However, in the next second, her ax swung down and the piece of wood was immediately cut in half.
“…” After seeing Meng Chuyuan split the firewood, Lu Jinsen’s pupils dilated and his eyes were filled with shock.
Meng Chuyuan placed the split firewood aside, then erected another piece of wood. She swung the ax in her hand, and the firewood was once again split open.
Her movements were very nimble, and chopping firewood seemed to be as easy as blowing off dust.
[This is awkward. Hahaha, Sister Meng split it in one go.]
[Sister Meng says: Is it very difficult to chop firewood? Is it because he’s not good enough or because I’m really good?]
[At this moment, I’m as shocked as Lu Jinsen… But seeing Sister Meng chop two pieces of wood in a row, I want to say that Young Master is really weak.] [I feel like Sister Meng is an experienced veteran. Her actions seem very natural.]
Meng Chuyuan looked up and saw that Lu Jinsen was still standing rooted to the ground. She asked indifferently, “Didn’t I tell you to trim the vegetables? Why are you still standing here?”
“…How did you split it open?”
“What’s so difficult about this?” She had started farming with her grandmother when she was seven years old. In the past, Meng Chuyuan was young and it was quite difficult for her to do laborious work. Later, as she slowly grew up, she naturally knew more things. Meng Chuyuan had done things like washing clothes, cooking, and chopping firewood..
