I'm Very Happy After Marrying the CEO Husband According to the Agreement

Chapter 44

After a day's work, everyone was extremely tired, but deep down they really wanted to eat something nice. However, no one objected to killing the goose.

Shen Tang pondered for a while. Since the goose couldn't be killed, they'd have to find some other food. She suddenly remembered that when they came, there seemed to be a small river at the foot of the back mountain, where there should be fish.

After getting permission, Shen Tang took some crude equipment and went to the riverside. One of the male guests was a little skeptical: "Can you really catch fish like this?"

Without waiting for Shen Tang to answer, Ao Ziping directly said, "Don't worry, as soon as Sister Tang Tang makes her move, we'll know if there are any or not. These fish, we're definitely eating them tonight."

The female lead nodded along, "I've also seen that show, Sister Tang Tang can definitely do it."

Actually, Shen Tang didn't even know if she could do it herself.

"You guys should be careful. If your hopes get too high now, the disappointment will be even greater later. This is my first time trying this too." She had only heard some fishing tips from other people before, she hadn't tried them herself either.

Now she was clutching at straws. What if she did manage to catch some?

"Sister Tang Tang, I believe in you!" Hearing Ao Ziping's words, Shen Tang made an "ok" gesture.

The sun had already set. It would be dark soon. Whether she succeeded or not, she had to hurry.

When Shen Tang got to the riverside, she found a good spot, cast the fishing hook, and everyone watched with bated breath, already thinking of eighteen ways to cook the fish in their minds.

After a while, it seemed like a fish had taken the bait. Shen Tang sharply tugged on the line and pulled up a broken shoe.

"Don't worry, try again," everyone comforted.

Shen Tang silently cast her line again to keep fishing. She already had a bad feeling.

After a while, the hook shook again. Shen Tang thought, this time I must have caught one...

She sharply flicked the fishing pole, and a torn pair of pants flew up.

Everyone: "..."

"I heard that fishing enthusiasts can catch anything except fish. Seeing it today, it is indeed true."

"Pfft!"

【Hahaha I'm laughing to death, is Shen Tang going to suffer a crushing defeat? 】

【Get ready to screenshot this!】

Unwilling to admit defeat, Shen Tang tried a few more times, and successively fished up a safety helmet, trash bag, and finally a sanitary pad.

That's right, a sanitary pad.

【Oh gross...why would there be something like that in the river...】

【How disgusting...】

【To be fair, I've caught those things while fishing too, it really is nasty...】

【Ugh don't remind me, last year when my dad went fishing he pulled out a corpse, he was scared half to death and still hasn't recovered to this day, he doesn't dare to go fishing anymore】

【!!!!!! Damn】

Looking at the "catch" before her, Shen Tang suddenly lost her appetite.

"Um...I don't really feel like eating fish anymore..."

"Me neither..."

"Yeah, let's uh, head back..."

The group returned empty-handed, with everyone looking rather dejected.

Well, not exactly empty-handed, they were carrying a lot more bags now.

The anti-fans in the livestream chatrooms were extremely delighted though, especially Shen Tang's haters, they were as happy as if it were New Year's.

Before they even got home, they saw a figure wandering at the entrance to their little courtyard from afar.

When the few of them walked over, they realized it was the granny who had helped them this morning.

Seeing them return, Granny smiled and handed over the ceramic basin in her hands.

"My family cooked too much for dinner, so I brought some for you. Don't turn your noses up at it!"

How could they understand that feeling of being cared for by someone? It was indescribable, extremely comforting.

"We would never, thank you Granny!"

"Why would we turn our noses up, thanks Granny!"

After sending the old woman off, Shen Tang lifted the lid. To her surprise, it was a whole pot of stewed chicken.

"This is..."

No one expected that Granny had brought them such a huge pot of chicken meat.

In the countryside, chickens were not usually casually slaughtered except for festivals or important family occasions.

What's more, Granny's family conditions were not good, and she lived alone.

"Maybe we should...send the food back..."

Shen Tang shook her head in explanation. "Granny must have specifically made this for us. Sending it back would be inappropriate. Let's go help her more over the next few days, to repay her kindness in other ways."

Everyone agreed this made sense and consented to do so.

Shen Tang stir-fried some vegetables to go with the chicken. With full bellies, the meal tasted delicious.

Ao Ziping ate mouthfuls of chicken and rice, tears of excitement streaming down his cheeks.

"It's so tasty!"

"Mm...the vegetables Sister Tang Tang stir-fried do taste good..." said the female lead.

Shen Tang sighed. What technique was needed to stir-fry vegetables? Didn't they all taste the same?

"People only say everything tastes great when they're hungry."

"No no, it's really different, the dishes you make taste exceptionally flavorful," the female lead insisted, puffing out her cheeks.

Shen Tang badly wanted to reach out and poke them to see how cute she looked.

【Does Shen Tang's cooking actually taste that good?】

【It's all pretense and grandstanding, if you take it seriously then you've already lost】

【Give the kids some decent stuff to eat, even stir-fried veggies get called tasty】

【Maybe she actually is a good cook...】

The bullet screen comments defending Shen Tang were instantly drowned out by a sea of mocking messages.

Night falls swiftly in the countryside.

After the meal, everyone lay back on recliners in the yard, blowing in the breeze and gazing at the night sky, extremely comfortable.

The female lead took a deep breath, "The country air really is fresh..."

"To be honest, I used to be a night owl. Since coming here, my biological clock has practically adjusted itself."

"I'm different, my agent said I lacked exercise in daily life and sent me here to train."

"Oh, I get it, you're just too lazy," remarked Shen Tang.

Male Guest: "......"

"Fine, you can say it is what it is."

"By the way, why did you guys come here anyway?"

Frankly, this was a variety show about doing farm labor. Generally people didn't like watching it, especially actresses who didn't want to get tanned skin that would be hard to whitewash later.

The female lead gave a charming smile. "I feel it's quite meaningful, it's my first time seeing a show like this."

Shen Tang secretly nodded, as expected of the female lead, she had broad perspectives.

"What about you, Sister Tang Tang?"

"Me? I came for the money."

To be precise, it was for two sources of money - the income from appearing on the show, and investment returns. Teehee...

"Sister Tang Tang, you really are...pure and unpretentious!"

Shen Tang burst into laughter. The flattery here was just too pleasant-sounding, she could almost float to heaven from all the praise.

They didn't chat for long before everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

After washing up, Shen Tang took out her phone and started replying to messages, most of which were from the twins.

Glancing at the time, she knew they were already asleep, but Shen Tang still conscientiously replied to each one without cutting corners.

She was quite surprised to see a WeChat message from Gu Huai'an.

Because all he had simply asked was if she had adapted yet or not.

Shen Tang really wanted to say, what difference would it make whether she adapted or not?

But he did mean well. Replying like that would sound sarcastic.

【Passionate Monkey Mom: Still okay, just a little tiring】

Unexpectedly, the status instantly changed to "Gu Huai'an is typing..." Shen Tang was very puzzled. Was this guy staring at his phone the whole time?
