Chapter 128: Even For Watering Flowers It’s Ugly
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“If you hadn’t held me back, this match would have ended, okay.”
Qi Yan casually made a small teacup with a ball of clay. Then she evened out its corners. She could not be bothered to make the bottom of the cup and just brought it up for inspection.
“Aren’t you being too perfunctory?” Ting Jiu’s jaw almost dropped when he saw her actions.
. ‘ In any case, this competition was about speed, not the degree of similarity and beauty of the final product.
Qi Yan placed the last cup on the table. When the director saw it, he immediately came over to check.
“Sure.” The director nodded without changing his expression. “Although this teapot isn’t that good-looking, it’s at least completed.”
[F*ck!! How can this be? Boohoo, who’s being held back by who? I won’t say anything.]
[I didn’t expect my Little Jiu Jiu to turn the tables.]
[Wouldn’t my Sister Meng and Yan Yan have worked for nothing? Their teapots are so beautiful, but they didn’t get first place. That’s very upsetting.]
[I didn’t understand the rules. I thought that whoever made the nicest teapot would definitely win.]
Seeing that Qi Yan’s group was the first to finish the tea set, Liao Jiake felt a little upset.
Qi Yan and Ting Jiu were originally a randomly assembled group. The two of them did not have much tacit understanding, and nobody expected them to be able to rank first in this competition.
Ting Jiu was still in shock and could not react. He said in disbelief, “We won?”
“We didn’t win.” Qi Yan emphasized to him. “You and I won.”
Ting Jiu suddenly beamed with joy and said, “It doesn’t matter. In any case, we won. ”
When Lu Jinsen, who was next door, heard this conversation, he looked up enviously.
Meng Chuyuan saw that he was distracted and reminded him softly, “Be serious. Are you going to give up after they get first place?”
Sensing that he had slowed down, Meng Chuyuan knew what he was thinking.
They were on par with the Liao sisters.
It was too early to give up now. At the very least, they could still fight for second place.
After being scolded by her, Lu Jinsen lowered his head and continued to make his own cup.
After a long while, Lu Jinsen and the Liao sisters completed their missions one after another.
The director said, “Alright, that’s all for today. The tea set that everyone made will be given to the villagers in the next episode as a greeting gift. We should be able to see the pottery products we made this afternoon.”
The guests placed all the pottery products they had just made in this shop. Someone would help them with the final firing process and then they would come back in the afternoon to get them.
When Ting Jiu heard that the tea set was going to be given to the villagers in the next episode, he suddenly regretted not making it seriously just now.
“Director, you should have said so earlier. I would have rather skipped lunch to perfect this teacup.”
The director’s eyes revealed a sly look as he said with a smile, “There wouldn’t be any surprises if I told you.”
However, compared to Qi Yan’s teapot, the cups he made were still acceptable.
At the thought of this, Ting Jiu didn’t feel so bad anymore. He even mocked Qi Yan. “Did you hear that? It’s going to be a greeting gift for someone. With your teapot looking like that, what can it be used for? I find it ugly even if it’s just going to be used for watering plants.”
Qi Yan:
[Little Jiu, your words are too hurtful.]
[I feel that Miss Qi more or less regrets it.]
[Hearing what the director said, I suddenly don’t feel so bad anymore. It’s worth it even if Yan Yan and Sister Meng didn’t win. Hahaha.]
At noon, everyone returned to their residences to prepare dinner.
Ting Jiu, as expected, ran to Meng Chuyuan’s group to freeload a meal. The ingredients he won were all with Qi Yan, but he could not be bothered to ask her how to deal with them.
When he saw her making braised pork last night, she couldn’t differentiate between light soy sauce and dark soy sauce. The thought of it made his hair stand on end.
“Sister Chuyuan, I want to eat at your place,” Ting Jiu said shamelessly.
Meng Chuyuan glanced over. Before she could respond, Lu Jinsen suddenly interrupted her. “Can you be more shameless?”
He had come to their group to freeload a few times. Lu Jinsen had tolerated it before, but he did not expect Ting Jiu to still have such thoughts even though it was already the start of a new episode.
Ting Jiu asked in confusion, “How am I shameless?”
If there was food to freeload, it would be a waste not to eat it.
Ting Jiu said indignantly, “You should be the one who’s more shameless, right? Relying on the fact that you’re in the same group as Sister Chuyuan, you’re eating and drinking for free.”
“…” Lu Jinsen was so angry that he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists..
