Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!

Chapter 127: Chapter 127: He’s Not Snobbish, Just Simply Bad-Tempered

“Witnessing Jiang Li leave with a bucket, Jiang Yan refused to admit defeat.”

“Now that Jiang Li had left everyone else in the dust with his high approval rating, Jiang Yan might not be able to catch up, but he couldn’t let the gap be too embarrassing. Otherwise, how would he ever show his face in the Capital again?”

“Luckily, I picked wheat, which is easy to recognize.”

It didn’t take long for Jiang Yan to find his target, and he promptly moved to fill his bucket.

Thankfully, he hadn’t chosen some strange plant but these commonly seen wheat seeds.

Amidst a patch of broad, verdant seedlings, the slender leaves of the wheat were particularly noticeable.

Once he spotted his target, Jiang Yan didn’t stop for a second, continuously moving the seedlings into his bucket.

His rough handling promptly earned a rebuke from Director Sun.

“That mud monkey over there!” Director Sun said, “Be more careful with your movements; we have a limited supply of seedlings cultivated by our production team, and damaging one will cost you 0.1 points!”

Jiang Yan, who had already damaged four or five plants, was speechless: “….”

[Hahaha, did I hear that right? Did Director Sun just call Jiang Yan a mud monkey? Hahahaha]

[The production team is so mean; they won’t even let the participants bathe, looking at it now, Wen Jiaojiao is quite fortunate.]

[Wait a minute, the seedling Jiang Yan picked… is it really wheat? Why does it look like grass to me?]

[Wheat seedlings indeed look a lot like grass, but through the screen, I can’t really tell either.]

[The production team wouldn’t be this cruel, would they? The task is already hard enough, are they really using weeds to fill in the numbers?]

Shu Yan also quickly identified her own seeds.

Fortunately, she had been to greenhouses to pick strawberries when she had nothing else to do and could vaguely recognize strawberry leaves.

But when she had exerted all her strength to transfer the seedlings and soil to the bucket, she found she couldn’t lift it at all.

“That’s not right, Jiang Li just now lifted four buckets so easily, so why can’t I lift even two?”

As she said this, she looked at Jiang Yan pitifully, pouting.

“Young Master Jiang, this bucket is so heavy, I can’t lift it, can you help me out?”

Jiang Yan glanced at her mud-covered face, where only her eyes were visible: “….”

“Heh, I’m not falling for that trick. Go ask someone else; I haven’t even finished my own.”

A lot of people in the live stream started to complain about Jiang Yan’s ungentlemanly behavior.

[Come on, how can Jiang Yan be so cold-hearted? Not even willing to help someone else?]

[He’s so arrogant. Is this what the sons of high society are like? So lacking in grace?]

But obviously, Jiang Yan, who had gained some popularity from a few trending searches, had also amassed a significant fanbase over the past few days, and their fighting spirit was not to be underestimated.

[Shu Yan has arms and legs, why should anyone help her?]

[Exactly, Jiang Li is the youngest among them, and even he can lift it. You can tell Shu Yan is just pretending, right?]

[The young master isn’t arrogant, he just naturally has a bad temper. Look, he didn’t even help his own sister, so what makes you think he’ll help someone else? Impossible.]

Left with no choice, Shu Yan had to do it on her own.

In the end, it was Qi Tianyu who could no longer stand by and reluctantly helped her move two buckets.

But when it came to his own turn, he started to struggle again.

The greenhouse was full of seeds, and he couldn’t tell which ones were flowers.

Fortunately, he eventually spotted a box of seedlings in the corner that resembled roses and joyfully transferred them into his bucket.

He Yun, who chose the codonopsis, became the one with the most challenging task.

That kind of medicinal herb is not something ordinary people would even come into contact with, let alone identify its seedlings.

While He Fans in the live broadcast room were worrying if their brother could pick the correct seeds, they saw He Yun directly walk to a warming box closest to her and move out the plant inside.

[?? Brother is so amazing, huh? He can even recognize codonopsis?]

[Wait, is that not a tomato seedling? Mr. He, be careful!!!]

[Have any of you noticed, I feel like brother is a bit off today, he’s barely spoken during the live broadcast, is he sick?]

[So I’m not the only one who feels that way! He Yun’s condition really doesn’t seem great today. He’s usually quite aloof, and now he’s even more so, not even interacting with Jiang Li.]

When all the participants had moved the seedlings into their test fields, the first to emerge was Jiang Li, already planting a row of lush sweet potato seedlings in the field.

She was wearing a sun hat and gloves provided by the production team, with her slender neck and arms exposed under the sun, porcelain-white like jade, standing out starkly against the dark soil.

Even dressed in the plainest clothes, doing the most down-to-earth tasks, her cool and transcendental aura could hardly be concealed.

Even Shu Yan, being a woman herself, couldn’t help but sigh, “Youth is so good, her face is full of collagen, and Jiang Li’s bare face is really resilient. She’s been in the sun for so many days, and even her skin hasn’t tanned.”

Not like herself, without makeup to cover up, she’d probably look no different from coal.

Jiang Yan heard this sigh and shamelessly took the opportunity.

“That’s for sure. Haven’t you seen the kind of genes our Jiang Family has?”

Shu Yan: “….”

Wish I hadn’t said anything.

By ten-something in the morning, when the sun is at its strongest, five young ladies and gentlemen, who should have been sitting in air-conditioned rooms being waited on, were now facing the loess with their backs to the sky doing farm work.

The staff members had all taken shelter under the sheds to cool off.

Only a few of the follow-cam crew members were still squatting beside the test fields.

Initially, the participants were interested in planting something they had never encountered before, but as they kept on planting, they realized something wasn’t quite right.

Wasn’t this more tiring than plowing the earth?

Not only did they have to dig holes, but they also had to carefully plant the seedlings and then mound the soil over them.

A moment of carelessness and the delicate seedlings would break, and they’d have to spend 0.1 good score to exchange for new ones.

What was even more fatal was that they were without any tools to assist them, having to bend over the whole time.

This back and forth exchange had cost Jiang Yan a whole two points just on replacing seedlings.

He, used to doing as he pleased and living a life of leisure, almost lost half a lifetime of temper doing this meticulous task for the first time.

“Fuck, why are there stones in the ground? They’re killing me!”

“Damn it, why did it break again? Is this really wheat?”

“I fucking can’t take this anymore, I’m wiped out, how come I’ve only planted a little over fifty seedlings?!”

The test field was continuously filled with “birdsongs and floral scents,” making Director Sun on the side twist his brow in distress.

Wouldn’t Jiang Yan’s live broadcast room be shut down if this continued?

However, Jiang Yan’s fans were quite pleased to see their idol go crazy.

[LOL, I’m dying laughing, the Young Master is cursing heaven and earth again.]

[Thankful to the production team for letting me see Young Master Jiang farming, otherwise I would never witness such a scene, not even in my next life.]

[Sometimes I really suspect whether Jiang Yan and Jiang Li were switched at birth, Jiang Yan here is spewing fragrant words while Jiang Li hasn’t complained a single word on the other side, quietly nearly finishing planting the whole field.]
