“My sandals!” Jiang Baiwan exclaimed and subconsciously leaned forward to catch it, but her body swayed due to her agitation. She was so frightened that she quickly hugged the tree trunk next to her again, not daring to move. She could only yell down, “Ji Chen! My sandals fell off!”

While Jiang Baiwan was cooking in the kitchen, an uninvited guest quietly slipped in.

“Xiao Wan.” Shui Lan’er called her in a small voice. “You…… Do you have any more ingredients on your side?”

Jiang Baiwan turned her head and looked at Shui Lan’er, feeling a familiar headache sweeping over again. “What’s the matter? You didn’t complete your special task today?”

It was fine if Jiang Baiwan didn’t talked about this, because when the special task was mentioned, two streak of tears immediately fell out of Shui Lan’ers eyes as she whimpered, “I…… I’m so useless. I wasn’t able to complete the task. If only I can be as good as you, Xiao Wan.”

“Stop, stop, stop.” Jiang Baiwan hurriedly urged her to stop crying. “What’s your special task? How come you didn’t complete it?”

Shui Lan’er looked at Jiang Baiwan, her brows full of sorrow. “My special task is transplanting rice seedlings.”

Jiang Baiwan: “……”

Why was everyone’s special task easier than hers?! At any rate, they don’t need to climb trees, just milking cows and transplanting rice seedlings!

“……How come you can’t even finish transplanting rice seedlings……? Forget it, pretend I didn’t ask.” Jiang Baiwan didn’t want to get entangled with Shui Lan’er anymore. She chopped off half of the chicken that had been processed. “Here’s half of the chicken. Ji Chen and I are two people after all, so we need more food.”

Shui Lan’er bit her lip, thanked Jiang Baiwan softly, then snatched half of chicken before running out like the wind.
