After Being an Improper Control Group as an Abandoned Wealthy Wife, She Effortlessly Came Out on Top

Chapter 30: Unlocking the New Skill "Repairing the Wall"

"Child, see if this is enough. If there's anything else you need, feel free to tell me."

The old lady did not treat them as outsiders at all. She generously gave Meng Chuyuan what she wanted. The two bags of powder she took out weighed more than ten catties. Meng Chuyuan felt that this amount was a little too much.

Meng Chuyuan said, "Thank you, Grandma. We just want to make some pastries. You don't have to give us so much."

When the old lady heard this, the smile in her eyes deepened. At first glance, she exuded the aura of an experienced person. "It's fine. Keep it for next time. If you want to make pastries, how can you miss out on sugar? I'll get some for you."

Just as Grandma was about to go in and get them sugar, Lu Jinsen suddenly said shamelessly, "Grandma, we still need rock sugar…"

"No problem." Before Lu Jinsen could finish his sentence, the old lady had already understood.

[Hahaha, Young Master, you big mouth.]

[This grandmother is too kind. She has everything at home and treats Sister Meng like her own granddaughter.]

[The old granny must have been afraid that she didn't take enough ingredients for them. This is so much like how when I go to school my grandma stuffs a big box of things into my hands. Boohoo, I miss my grandma.]

[Grandma is so cute. I can tell that she really likes Sister Meng. It feels like she can't wait to empty her house. Hahaha.]

[As expected, she's beautiful and sweet-tongued. I'm envious of Sister Meng again.]

The old lady went in for a while, then came out carrying several bags of items. "I still have some red beans here. I don't usually need them. Since you want to make pastries, I'll give them to you so you can use them as fillings for your pastries."

Originally, Meng Chuyuan only wanted some flour to make osmanthus pine cakes. She did not expect the old lady to be so enthusiastic and prepare so many things for her.

"Thank you, Grandma. I'll send some pastries over when they are ready." Seeing that there were enough ingredients, she thought that it was not impossible to make another serving of red bean cake.

"Oh right, why didn't I see Grandpa today? Isn't he at home?"

The old granny sighed softly and said, "He's mending the wall at the back."

They lived in an adobe house like Meng Chuyuan. Although it looked better than Meng Chuyuan and Lu jinsen's, this house had some history after all. It was inevitable that the walls would break.

Meng Chuyuan could hear the worry in the old lady's tone. The matter must not have been that simple.

If the wall was not badly cracked and the affected area was small, it would not have affected their daily life. It would also not take so long to mend it.

Meng Chuyuan suddenly turned to look at Lu Jinsen and said tentatively, "Why don't you stay and help Grandpa repair the wall?"

"What?" Lu Jinsen frowned in confusion, as if he had misheard.

"I asked you to help with the wall."

Lu Jinsen was a little dissatisfied with her arrangement. He said coldly, "If you want me to stay, what about you?"

"I'll go back and prepare the gift." Seeing that his expression did not improve, Meng Chuyuan said, "Why don't I stay? You can go back and prepare it. Is that okay?"

"…" What was the use of him going back? He didn't know how to bake the cake.

After a while, Lu Jinsen said, convinced, "I'll mend the wall."

[Young Master was rendered speechless. He was fully convinced.]

[I really like Lu Jinsen's helpless look. Hahaha.]

[Sister Meng knows everything. She's not picky and doesn't complain. It's another day of me loving this woman.]

[Sister Meng even gave Young Master a chance to choose. Young Master, you have to work hard.]

[Congratulations, Eldest Young Master, for obtaining a new skill, "repairing the wall".]

Outside the venue, the director was watching the live-stream of Meng Chuyuan's group. When he heard that the two of them were going to split up, he instantly jolted up.

"Quick! Go inform the cameramen who are following us that we'll be following Meng Chuyuan later."

"Huh?" The stage supervisor sitting next to him was confused. He asked in confusion, "Brother Luo, isn't Lu Jinsen our main character?"

The three guests for this variety show were Qi Zhen, Liao Jiake, and Lu Jinsen. The remaining three were simply accompanying them.

But who would have thought that the director would ask someone to follow Meng Chuyuan at such a time?

The director said, "Leave Lu Jinsen for now. He's not as popular as Meng Chuyuan now. When the cameraman is in position later, we'll open a live-stream to connect him to Meng Chuyuan's live-stream."

When Meng Chuyuan brought Lu Jinsen to meet the old man, he was standing on the ladder, repairing the wall with a bucket of mud.

Seeing the old man repairing the wall seriously, Meng Chuyuan did not dare to make a sound. She was worried that her sudden appearance would give him a shock.

When she walked behind the old man, she reached out to hold the ladder for him before saying, "Grandpa, I'm here to see you."

[Another meticulous gesture. Boohoo.]

[Sure enough, a person's success can't be without a care for detail. Sister Meng is the perfect woman in my heart.]

[Sister Meng is already my standard for finding a girlfriend.]

When the old man heard this, he slowly turned his head and looked down. When he saw Meng Chuyuan, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. "Child, it's you."

Coincidentally, the mud in the bucket had been used up, so the old man came down the ladder.

Meng Chuyuan said, "Grandpa, I also brought my brother here to help you mend the wall."

The old man's gaze landed on Lu Jinsen. Seeing how taciturn Lu Jinsen looked, he felt that Lu Jinsen had quite a personality.

However, the old man didn't want to trouble him with such rough work. "No need. I can do it myself."

"Grandpa, he can do anything. Just order him around."

Lu Jinsen: "…"

[Hahahahaha, Sister Meng is starting to set her brother up again.]

[Lu Jinsen: I didn't say that I can do anything.] Thi/s chapter is updat𝓮d by nov(e)(l)biin.co/m

[I'm dying of laughter. Sister Meng really dares to say anything. What if Eldest Young Master falls out with her on the spot. That will be awkward.]

Meng Chuyuan gave Lu Jinsen a look to make him take the initiative. "Hurry up and mend this wall for Grandpa."

"Grandpa, leave the repairing of the wall to me." After all, he had taken so many things from them. It would be a little embarrassing if he didn't do something.

Lu Jinsen took the mud bucket from the old man's hand and went to shovel the mud. The old man guided him carefully.

Meng Chuyuan said, "Work hard. You can't be perfunctory when it comes to mending the wall."

"Got it."

Seeing that his attitude towards his elders was alright and that he was willing to work hard, Meng Chuyuan felt that there was no need to worry. "Grandpa, I'll leave him to you. I have something on and will leave first."

"Okay, don't worry."

Meng Chuyuan returned to the front yard. She carried the hawthorn into the cart. After saying goodbye to the old lady, she pulled the cart full of things back.

Wherever she went, the cameraman followed. Lu Jinsen had long disappeared from the livestream.

[So, Eldest Young Master has been abandoned?! I'm so conflicted. I want to see Sister Meng go back to make pastries but I also want to see Eldest Young Master's growth and development.]

[It can't be helped. How can they be on camera at the same time in this situation? The production team probably knows that we like to watch Sister Meng, so they kicked Lu Jinsen out. Hahaha.]

[Lu Jinsen: It's fine if you want me to stay behind to repair the wall, but you didn't even leave me a camera.]

[Although I really like Sister Meng's beauty, at this moment, I really want to see Young Master make mud to mend the wall. It's a priceless scene.]

[I want to see that too +10,086]
