As a result, Mu Qiuniang worked hard all day and didn't get to eat a single skewer, but managed to feed Director Zhang and Jiang Nuo until they were full.
Director Zhang held his big belly, looking wise and experienced: "Xiao Jiang, you're not being fair here, look how much you've eaten, your wife barely had anything."
Jiang Nuo gritted his teeth: "If you weren't competing with , would I have neglected my wife?"
"So, is it my fault then?" Director Zhang picked a toothpick and started cleaning his teeth, "She's not my wife."
"Just wait, next ti I et your wife, huh huh..." Turning his head, Jiang Nuo looked at Mu Qiuniang with a face that said "I was wrong, you can punish ," and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
Mu Qiuniang shook her head: "I'm not hungry."
"How can you not be hungry? We fild all day today and only had box lunches, you hardly ate anything. If you don't want barbecue, we can order sothing else. There are a few good noodle shops nearby..." Jiang Nuo started introducing them to her.
Mu Qiuniang seed a bit helpless: "I'd rather cook for myself."
"That's true, what others cook can't compare to yours." Jiang Nuo looked disheartened.
Wuwuwuwu... Having such a capable wife isn't necessarily a good thing. For instance, when trying to make her happy, he felt powerless.
Leng ngng quietly asked Director Zhang: "Director Zhang, is her cooking really that good?" They had been watching the fierce competition without any chance to cut in.
"Yeah, is it really that good?" Shang Beibei looked at Mu Qiuniang with great anticipation, looking like she wanted to ask but didn't dare.
"Nowadays, these won think cooking a few dishes can let them cling onto a man." Ye Xue couldn't help but interject, her face full of jealousy.
Once she spoke, there was a slight awkward pause.
Director Zhang directly ignored her, laughingly said to Leng ngng and Shang Beibei: "The taste is simply superb, I've been eating skewers for years, and I've never had anything so delicious. Once you try one, you'll definitely want more and can't stop."
For Shang Beibei to beco the female lead, she naturally couldn't have low emotional intelligence, so she quickly smiled and said: "Hearing Director Zhang say that makes want to try it even more. But I wonder, will the male god let his wife give us a taste?"
"Hahaha... did you hear that? Xiao Jiang, quickly let your wife give us a taste." Director Zhang said.
Jiang Nuo looked displeased: "My wife hasn't even eaten yet. Let's say, only one skewer for each, no more."
"Male god, you're too stingy..." Leng ngng said with a face of grievance, "Just one skewer isn't even enough to fill the gaps between teeth. You and Director Zhang ate until you're full, and we only get one skewer, you're bullying us!"
She even stomped her foot.
"See, see, now you're bullying the little girls. Be generous, call her Sister-in-law Jiang and get an extra skewer..." Director Zhang said.
"Fine, calling her Sister-in-law Jiang gets an extra skewer." Jiang Nuo grinned widely, clearly pleased.
Shang Beibei and Leng ngng hesitated for a mont, but eventually obediently called her sister-in-law.
Other actors or staff also chid in with calls of "Sister-in-law Jiang, can we get a taste too?"
With this "giving," Mu Qiuniang got fully occupied, giving out one skewer per person, and there were dozens of people on site. Moreover, they said one skewer, but once they tasted it, how could one skewer ever suffice?
Each one of them had bright eyes shining like hungry wolves, all fixated on the at skewers in her hands.
Especially Leng ngng, who didn't care about the male god anymore; today, she decided that the male god's wife was her goddess.
"Goddess, can I have a few more skewers?! It's just too delicious; I've never had anything so good in my life..." Leng ngng squatted right by Mu Qiuniang's grill, refusing to leave.
Shang Beibei was a bit reserved, but couldn't resist the allure of delicious food, running over: "Sister-in-law Jiang... can I have five more skewers?"
Yujinxiang also stood behind Mu Qiuniang, whispering: "Sister-in-law Jiang, I want more too."
" too."
"I want so too."
" too."
...
Jiang Xue watched as everyone gathered around, gritting her teeth. Just a skewer, is it really worth all this fuss?!
Hmph! If it weren't for her being Jiang Nuo's wife, who would pay any attention to her?
In the end, Jiang Xue didn't get to taste the at skewers that Mu Qiuniang grilled.
Cold ngng directly asked Director Zhang if she could post photos of this gathering. She wanted to "worship" her goddess.
Director Zhang chuckled and said: "As long as it doesn't involve any movie content, you can post it."
"Director Zhang, you're the best!" Leng ngng was overjoyed.
"Rember to act well tomorrow."
"I promise."
Leng ngng happily ran over to take photos with Mu Qiuniang. In the pictures, there's Mu Qiuniang grilling at, Mu Qiuniang handing out at, and Mu Qiuniang with soone's arm around her shoulder.
Taking the photos was nothing, but when posting them, Leng ngng suddenly thought: Her goddess always sits so "properly" no matter when!
She couldn't describe the feeling. Clearly it was just a simple action, but when the goddess did it, it was visually pleasing; clearly just grilling at, but when the goddess did it, it was as elegant as sipping tea, admired at a glance.
Leng ngng's nine-photo grid with text: [Caught a goddess └(^o^)┘ Wishing I could take her ho, what to do? But can't beat the male god @Jiang Nuo, crying...]
Shang Beibei directly reposted it: [(#‵′)凸 Don't fight with . @Leng ngng Y(^_^)Y]
Leng ngng replied instantly: [→_→ @Shang Beibei, dare you take my goddess, ▄︻┻═┳I'll you.]
Shang Beibei: [@Leng ngng. Violent! #^_^# The goddess belongs to the male god's family. @Jiang Nuo.]
...
The two nearly chatted away until soone reminded them: "If you're not having them, I'm taking these skewers."
"I want/I want---" both of them chid in simultaneously, snatching them together.
Mu Qiuniang handed out 5 skewers to each of them, giving the rest to other staff mbers.
While she didn't manage to feed all the dozens of people, Mu Qiuniang certainly left them satisfied. With just a barbecue session, she gained a whole group of "foodies."
Jiang Nuo said: Wife, you're amazing!
Back ho that night, Jiang Nuo was all about pampering her, either bringing hot water to soak her feet or massaging her arms.
"Honey, you worked hard today!"
Jiang Nuo knew that given his wife's aloof nature, if it weren't for him, she wouldn't bother with them. There were so many people, and just for him and Director Zhang alone, there were two or three skewers each, plus others, she must have grilled at least a thousand skewers.
Truly, given his current position, Mu Qiuniang didn't have to "please" others like that. She did it just to avoid "offending" people, not wanting him to have difficulties in future collaborations.
"Wife, thank you!"
Jiang Nuo was very moved.
The pampered Mu Qiuniang curled her lips slightly, not saying a word. Just a thousand skewers, it was nothing to her; it wasn't any more difficult than her usual alchemy.
Still, even a little effort, when appreciated, made her feel gratified, knowing her efforts were worth it. It made her feel less regretful about softening her heart that one ti and agreeing to his proposal.
