Penitent hand, trembling slightly

Because of the rain last night, the air this morning is exceptionally fresh and cool.The dark clouds in the sky hadn't parted yet, and it seemed that another heavy rain was brewing at any time, and everything in sight was gloomy.

This was Shen Maomao's first time cooking by himself, and he was a little excited when he thought about it.

She first opened the rice cooker, filled it with water, and then poured three scoops of rice into the pot.

That's it for the rice, but what about the food?Cooking porridge does not require technical skills, and cooking is not a job she can handle...

Just as Shen Maomao was frowning, the door of the cafeteria was suddenly pulled open from the outside, followed by the sound of pulling a stool.

一

After all, it was broad daylight, and she wasn't too scared, so she took advantage of the opportunity to look up.

It turned out to be Wei Gu.

When Xiaolou led people to look for Yun Shengjin, he came to the cafeteria instead to wait for dinner.

Shen Maomao almost rolled his eyes to the sky.

Yun Shengjin is not a good person, but apart from misleading Ding Hou, he didn't do anything wrong to others. He also did his best when dealing with newcomers...

How could Wei Gu's move not be chilling?

But no matter how disappointed she was, it was Shen Maomao's turn. She pretended not to see it, took out the last four potatoes from the basket, put them on the chopping board and cut them into potato sticks.

There hasn't been enough food since yesterday. After this morning's meal, there are only some rice and eggs left.

I don't know if the foreman will buy more... The game shouldn't let them starve to death here, right?

She recalled the steps of Yan Nan's cooking, turned on the gas stove, and put the iron pot on it to boil the water dry.Then pour hot oil into the pan, add the crushed garlic and chopped green onion.

There was a crackling sound, the oil splashed everywhere, and Shen Maomao rushed out, and soon there was a smell of burnt in the pot.

Shen Maomao: "..." Sure enough, cooking is not something that can be learned just by looking at it.

She moved over and used a shovel to fish out the onions and garlic that had become black lumps, and then put the potato sticks in without hesitation.

The starch paste is on the bottom of the pot and cannot be scooped off with a shovel.

The burnt smell and black smoke spread into the cafeteria, and Brother Long, who didn't know when he arrived, rushed in and roared, "You fucking want to blow up the kitchen?"

Shen Maomao roared back: "Mother Gan Lin, do what you want!"

"Get out!" Brother Long squeezed her aside, picked up the pot with one hand and dumped the black piece into the trash can, then rinsed it under the tap cleanly.Then he broke the remaining eggs into a bowl, and heated the oil in the pan again. Once the chopped green onion exploded and the egg liquid was poured, the aroma of the eggs came out.

Shen Maomao was dumbfounded, thinking that he was a younger brother.

I didn't expect a person like Brother Long to be able to cook! !It's really indescribable.

She watched Brother Long fry out a whole plate of yellow and green eggs, and watched him pour the leftover vegetables from last night into the pot with great kindness and heat them up. Already!".

In the end, she and Brother Long served the cooked porridge to the dinner table, feeling like she was living in a dream.

Several people from Xiaolou who were looking for Yun Shengjin and his wife and Xue Hualuo's whereabouts also came back one after another.Everyone got nothing, sat together and ate a dull meal.

All of a sudden, there were three less people, and there was still room for nine people to sit at two round tables.

After dinner, Shen Maomao stayed to wash the dishes, while the others continued to go to work.

Without Yan Nan, she needs to do twice as much work as before.No one knows if the foreman can understand that she has more work than before and doesn't remember that she is late for moving bricks, so as soon as the meal is over, she goes to work quickly.

When she had finished washing the dishes, she was ready to pack up and go out to carry bricks.Who would have thought that as soon as she walked out of the cafeteria's dining hall, she would see the intact Yan Nan approaching from not far in front.

"Woc!" Shen Maomao almost peed in fright, turned his head and walked around the back of the cafeteria.

Yan Nan called her: "Why are you running?! Come back!"

Shen Maomao thought I was stupid, so I turned around and died.She ran around the cafeteria towards the center, and the stagnant water splattered under her feet. Yan Nan kept chasing after her.

"Elder Sister! I am just a newcomer, I don't know anything! Why are you chasing me?!" she cried.

Yan Nan was so angry by her: "Are you sick??!"

What responded to her was the figure of Shen Maomao who disappeared in front of her accompanied by the mud idea.

……

"Sister Lou! Help!" Shen Maomao rushed to Xiaolou's side in one breath, looked up at the woman on the scaffolding, and felt a sense of security instantly, "Yan Nan came back and asked us for his life!!"

Xiaolou looked at her like a fool: "Yan Nan and Yun Shengjin are back, look up."

Shen Maomao looked in the direction she was pointing, who was the hard-working figure on the building who was not Yun Shengjin?

"What's the matter? Why did they come back?" She asked puzzled.

Xiaolou said: "Yun Sheng has entered three worlds, no matter what, he will have a way to save his life. But that little girl, 90.00% may have been killed."

As soon as the two whispered a few words, Yan Nan came over there.

She walked up to Shen Maomao and said in a cold voice, "I'm human, so I can see clearly!"

Shen Maomao smiled awkwardly: "I see clearly, I see clearly, it's great that you are all fine hahaha."

"I'm sorry to trouble you in the morning. I'll wash the dishes at noon." After saying this affirmative tone, she turned and walked to her work place.

Shen Maomao stuck out his tongue at her back.

As if it had been agreed upon, no one mentioned about Xue Hua again.

That teenage girl disappeared in this game, Shen Maomao's only impression of her was that lifeless face.

Looking at the dark clouds gathering in the sky, Xiaolou said softly, "Death is a kind of relief for her."

Xuehua looks like a high school student, but on her face, she never sees the lively and innocent that a high school student should have.There is only endless fear in the game world, and the players are numb, indifferent, and guarding against each other.The selfishness of human nature is magnified infinitely here, and living becomes a kind of pain...

She patted Shen Maomao's head with her gray hands: "But it has nothing to do with you, moving bricks well is the last word."

Shen Maomao: "Fuck, your hands are not clean! Don't touch my hair! I dare not wash my hair myself!!"

……

After three days at the construction site and two days of work, the bricks around the pool are now half the height of a person, requiring them to climb onto the scaffolding to continue stacking.

Fortunately, today is a cloudy day, otherwise standing at a high place and working all morning would kill people.

When he was tired, Shen Maomao lay on the top floor and looked into the pond.

The area of ​​the pond is small, because it rained yesterday, there is some stagnant water and silt.She thought of the name of this community—Shui Tian Yi Se.There are no rivers passing by nearby, and there are no lakes or rivers, so the developer chose to dig a non-flowing pond in the middle of the community to raise a pool of stagnant water.

And their current task seems to be to completely seal this stagnant water...

In addition, when they asked the foreman where they should bury Ding Hou yesterday, the foreman blurted out "it's in the middle, the pool with the wall is definitely a good place", she has reason to suspect that the foreman used to bury Ding Hou in the same place. Live the same thing!

Thinking of this, she couldn't stop, and immediately went to Xiaolou to explain the situation.

After listening to her reasoning, Xiaolou glanced at the muddy pond and refused, "Unless the water dries up, I can't go down."

The situation in the pond is indeed not suitable for walking... But is this the time for cleanliness? !

Shen Maomao straightened his chest, and said righteously: "Let the golden retriever go!"

Xiaolou reached a consensus with her: "I think it's okay."

The two looked at each other and smiled, everything was in silence.The golden retriever on the scaffold sneezed loudly and looked around vigilantly.

——It always feels like being calculated by someone.

……

Thankfully, the game doesn't intend to starve them.

When Shen Maomao and Yan Nan went back to cook at noon, the foreman brought a small amount of fresh vegetables.

In any case, there must be enough for lunch.

It was still Yan Nan who cooked, and Shen Maomao helped.But this time the foreman was standing in the cafeteria and staring at them, making the two feel a little bit tied up.

After the meal was ready, the foreman said to the two of them: "You two don't stack bricks this afternoon. The kitchen is still short of ingredients. I can handle the dishes, but the workers can't work without meat. Go out and buy, it costs 140 Jin, remember to take the receipt and ask me for reimbursement when you come back."

Yan Nan's face became very ugly in an instant, and Shen Maomao was also a little at a loss.

Not to mention that there are strange things out there that don't know whether they are people or ghosts. Just because they have no money, they can directly announce the failure of the mission.

Yan Nan said: "Foreman, we don't have that much money..."

The foreman frowned, a little dissatisfied: "It's not that I won't reimburse you, you should be quick and remember to come back before you finish cooking at night." After finishing speaking, he patted his butt and left.

It seems that this problem has no solution.

The two people in the kitchen could think about each other, Yan Nan said to Shen Maomao with a serious expression: "I have a way to find meat without going out, it's up to you whether you want to do it with me. But if you choose to go out with me If you are together, you must listen to me."

"Ah?" Shen Maomao made a confused face, "Where can I find it?"

Yan Nan looked at the pond not far away: "There are ready-made..."

Shen Maomao's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but took two steps back.

Yan Nan was planning to hit the corpse!

They suffered a lot while they were alive, and after they died, would they still be "used to the best of their ability"?

Shen Maomao couldn't accept it.

Yan Nan saw her reluctance, and taunted: "Everyone is dead, and I don't know what you are pretending to be here. Now that you have made your choice, go out and buy meat by yourself. The meat I got will not Give you some!"

The prepared meals were placed on the table, and the players working on the construction site returned to the cafeteria. Yan Nan took Yun Shengjin out to whisper.Shen Maomao couldn't accept Yan Nan's approach, but he had nothing to do, so he looked at Xiaolou with scorching eyes.

Xiao Lou couldn't swallow: "What are you doing?"

Shen Maomao: "Sister Lou, save me!"

Xiaolou: "What's wrong?"

Shen Maomao briefly explained what happened: "The idiot foreman asked Yan Nan and me to go out to buy meat without paying. Yan Nan and I disagreed and acted separately."

"Is that so—" Xiao Lou was very embarrassed, "I'd better find someone to be with in the next world."

The people around who eavesdropped showed a surprised expression of "Why are you already together?"

Shen Maomao: "...can you stop saying such misleading words, I still want to find a handsome little brother to fall in love with..."

Xiaolou: "Little brother doesn't have one, but ghost brother has quite a few."

Shen Maomao: "..." It makes sense.
