Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Auntie, I Bought You a Pack of Wangzai Milk

In the live reality show.

Mu Ran put hats on herself and Chu Xijin, and sprayed him with sunscreen spray.

Chu Xijin squinted and dodged, furrowing his brows, “Auntie, what’s this? It smells awful.”

“Sunscreen spray. The smell will dissipate soon. I only brought one bottle. Not sure if it’s enough, how come the sun is so strong today?” Mu Ran was glad that she and Chu Xijin wore clothes that covered most of their skin.

Otherwise, they would really tan a lot.

“What is sunscreen spray used for?”

“To keep you from tanning and getting sunburned,” Mu Ran explained.

“But I want to tan!!!”

Chu Xijin manually patted off the sunscreen spray.

“Why do you want to tan?” Mu Ran was puzzled.

“I’m too pale, it’s not good.” On the battlefield, people with pale skin have no authority. Chu Xijin didn’t like his white and tender appearance; he hoped someday he could have darker skin like his uncle, with a resolute face that tens of thousands of soldiers could trust.

“You’ll get sunburned,” Mu Ran reminded.

“No, I won’t.” Chu Xijin thought with this little sun, it’s just enjoyable.

“Alright then.” Mu Ran did not insist any longer.

Perhaps in ancient times, boys preferred having darker skin, which seemed to show more masculinity.

[No, no, no, don’t tan, you’re great just like this!]

[I can’t imagine Xiao Jin being tanned!]

[How nice white and tender is.]

[Mu Ran is going out to work? That’s rare.]

…

As soon as they stepped outside, they encountered Mao Ziyang and Mao Xiaomiao.

Chu Xijin greeted Mao Xiaomiao, “Xiao Miao, your hat looks great.”

“I’ll give it to you.” Mao Xiaomiao took it off and handed it to him.

“No, no need.” Chu Xijin quickly declined, “You wear it, the sun will be too strong later, don’t get sunburned.”

“You’re not wearing one?”

“I like basking in the sun.”

“Oh, me too. My aunt made me wear it.” Mao Xiaomiao looked disdainfully at the hat, handing it back to her aunt, “I already said I wouldn’t wear it, yet you talk about other kids wearing it. Even Chu Xijin isn’t wearing one.”

“Dear, the sun is really strong now.” Mao Ziyang tried to put it on her.

Mao Xiaomiao ran ahead directly.

Mao Ziyang sighed.

Her little niece plays parkour, she couldn’t outpace her!

Turning her head to glance at Mu Ran, she was wearing sunglasses and a hat, looking at her wasn’t advisable.

They walked together.

Silent to the point where the wind could be heard by the audience.

[Mao Ziyang must hate Mu Ran, right?]

[Causing her to be scolded for so long, how could she not hate her!]

[Hahaha, it’s normal, Mu Ran doesn’t get along with anyone.]

…

Mao Ziyang saw Xiong Guobing ahead, and immediately walked over to speak, finally easing the tense awkwardness.

Xiong Guobing chatted jovially with Mao Ziyang, “Your niece is quite energetic.”

“Yes, my sister-in-law is an athlete, she was very active even in the womb,” Mao Ziyang explained. “Where’s Xiangxiang?”

“He heard Zhu Wenzhen say his mom’s cooking is delicious; he’s probably still there eating.” Xiong Guobing forced a laugh.

He had finally managed to cook lunch for his son today, but his son said it was bad and couldn’t eat it, really infuriating him!

He had spent a full hour and a half making it.

Yet he took one bite and spat another, comforting him only made him cry.

He couldn’t understand how a six-year-old boy could cry so much?!

If not for the cameras rolling, he really wanted to give him a smack.

“It’s good he can eat. My kid looks like he exercises a lot but is actually very picky,” Mao Ziyang said.

Mu Ran listened to their conversation.

In her mind, she was thinking.

Did I forget something?

Oh!

Wangzai Milk.

Her milk hadn’t been drunk quietly. She really wanted to drink it.

On the way to the cornfield, they happen to pass by a supermarket, Mu Ran couldn’t help but glance inside.

She had been accustomed to drinking it since childhood, having it three times a day, missing one meal made life seem meaningless.

Actually, her family conditions were very good, many elders liked giving her expensive pure milk with various gimmicks.

But she didn’t like it.

She just loved the sweet Wangzai Milk.

“Auntie, I bought a row of Wangzai Milk for you!” Chu Xijin waved at her from the front.

Mu Ran: “…”

Wanting to drink it and feeling embarrassed.

“That’s good, we can drink together later when working.”

“Okay.” Chu Xijin carried the Wangzai Milk towards the cornfield.

The villagers were already picking.

Five carts were placed along the way, allowing everyone to load corn into them and transport them to the village.

The show crew thoughtfully distributed gloves.

Mu Ran put on gloves to work; she was much slower than Chu Xijin.

Chu Xijin wanted to go faster.

But he was already the fastest in the whole field, speeding up would seem too conspicuous.

Now that he’s come to a new world, he can’t be too flamboyant.

After filling the carts, they pushed them back together, the first trip was okay, but on the second trip Mu Ran’s lip line tightened, occasionally glancing at Yang Yingying.

The desire to kill her.

It was really strong.

Yang Yingying avoided her gaze, moved to another group.

On-site, aside from Mu Ran, Zhu Zhuting was also very tired, Zhu Wenzhen was less strong than Chu Xijin, making her even more exhausted.

Though she usually live-streamed, it was with her husband, unless there was a big promotion, their live-streams of five hours a day were not too intense as they took turns talking.

She wasn’t fond of exercising usually.

Walking such a long way in the morning and cooking lunch at noon, now having to move corn, she was really worn out.

But she owed forty bucks!

She had to pay off the debt.

What was unexpected to everyone was Mao Ziyang, she was quite strong, hauling load after load without complaining once.

[Became a fan!]

[Seems like Mao Ziyang never showed off, she was just attacked for her figure.]

[Feels like she’s really hardworking, love people who strive, joining her fan club!]

…

Mao Ziyang’s acting skills compared to peers were actually top-tier, but when she first debuted, she had a scandal with a big shot, and later her acting was criticized by Mu Ran, plus her figure was really curvy, leading her to constantly be victim of obscene rumors.

It’s rumored she has slept with many people.

Every time she gets a commercial, or acts in a TV drama, or participates in a reality show, she’s said to have slept her way there.

So now everyone seeing her working hard was quite surprised.

They worked the whole afternoon.

Everyone was almost worn out.

Mu Ran thought for the thousandth time, was she crazy to come here and work hard?

“Auntie, cold Wangzai Milk.” Chu Xijin handed her a straw-poked drink.

Mu Ran took it.

Bit into the straw, drinking it hard in one gulp.

Chu Xijin looked up at his aunt, his lips curled happily, gently looking like at a child.

[OMG!!!!!!!]

[Xiao Jin is the one who spoils Mu Ran the most!]

[Mu Ran, do you need me to envy you more to pacify you!]
