Chapter 15: Room Allocation
“That’s right, that’s right. This small bag of rice is only enough for a few of us. If we share it with you, what will we eat?” Meng Xi, who came out after washing her hands, hurriedly agreed.
The company wanted her to get along well with others, but they couldn’t let her be morally kidnapped.
“Alright, Meng Xi, let’s cook together. Xiao Han, come and help too.” Yu Su couldn’t be bothered to argue with these people anymore. She hurriedly called the two of them into the kitchen, not wanting to hear another word.
When Shen Chun saw the three of them enter the kitchen, he stomped his feet on the ground and looked at Ding Chen, who was holding a fish.
Actually, Ding Chen had also wanted to join Yu Su and the other two just now, but Yu Miao had spoken first. Now, he did not know how to ask again.
When Shen Chun looked over, he had an ominous feeling. There were four people, three small potatoes, a fish, and a handful of vegetables. How could he be full? He might as well eat a fish himself.
Hence, he grinned awkwardly at Shen Chun and quickly disappeared.
“The three of you, I have a fish here that I don’t know how to cook. Can I join you? I can eat less.” After Ding Chen finished cleaning up, he carried the grass carp into the kitchen. When he saw Yu Su busying herself, Xiao Han squatted on the ground and looked at the fire in the stove. Hence, he asked carefully.
“Leave the fish there. There’s not enough firewood. Go outside and bring some firewood back.” When Yu Su heard Ding Chen’s voice, she did not refuse. Instead, she instructed him to join the group at work.
Ding Chen did not mind Yu Su’s attitude. Instead, he heaved a sigh of relief and happily went to the courtyard to carry firewood.
The fragrance of rice and the smell of tomato brisket drifted into the courtyard. Yu Miao and the other two swallowed silently when they smelled it, their hearts filled with resentment.
Yu Su did not care how they ate or what they ate.
After the few of them finished their meal, they handed the washing of the dishes to Meng Xi.
This was also what Meng Xi had requested. She did not want to be a person who only ate and did not work.
By the time everything was tidied up, it was already completely dark. The light used in this house was an old-fashioned yellow transparent light bulb, not the usual incandescent light.
Director Lin was at the entrance of the house in the middle. When he saw that everyone was here, he started to talk about the allocation of housing.
“This is an old residence. There are a total of three houses in the courtyard. There are two rooms in each house. In the middle is the central room. It can’t be lived in. There are four more rooms. The two of you will have one room. One of you will stay in one room. You can see how you guys want to distribute it.”
“I’m sharing a room with Yu Su,” Meng Xi answered before Director Lin could finish his sentence.
“Then I’ll share a room with Yu Miao.” In fact, Shen Chun really wanted her own room, but if she had a room to herself, there would be a man and a woman who needed to room together. It was obviously unrealistic.
Girls were easy to differentiate. They were familiar with each other, but it was not easy to decide when it came to boys.
Ye Chang was the first to speak. “The two of you can stay together. I’ll stay alone.”
The potatoes just now were roasted with the remaining charcoal after they finished cooking. Most of them were burnt, and only the middle part was edible. The vegetables were only boiled in water. The two girls were not full, so it was even more impossible for a boy like him to be full.
He was so hungry that he was very frustrated. He only felt that since he was not full, he would find a place to stay. In short, he could not let Xiao Han have a room to himself.
“I want to live alone.” As expected, Xiao Han also expressed his attitude.
Ding Chen felt a little awkward. It was easy for people to think that they did not want to live with him.
“I snore. I’m afraid I’ll disturb others. Besides, I don’t sleep well. It’s better for me to sleep alone.” The smile on Ye Chang’s face did not reach his eyes. Under the dim light, it was even a little scary.
“Oh, so you have so many problems sleeping. Then you can live alone. Ding Chen, is it okay for me to stay with you?”
Xiao Han didn’t pester him too much. He had roommates when he was in the club, so he didn’t mind sharing a room. He just didn’t want Ye Chang to get what he wanted so easily.
As expected, when Ye Chang heard his words, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, but there was nothing he could do.
When Yu Su saw this scene, she was overjoyed. Seeing Ye Chang suffer, she felt extremely happy.
Director Lin was also very happy. Everything that happened today was tit for tat. As long as it was edited reasonably, it would be the topic of the show in the future. After the show was broadcasted, there was no need to be afraid of losing popularity.
He was right. The introductory film of the show was about the scene of everyone entering the village on their first day.
In less than half a day after the show was released, several trending topics appeared.
And the fans of the various celebrities were also arguing non-stop.
