CHAPTER 24: CHAPTER 24: THE DETERIORATED SPECIES HAS HURT SOMEONE

"I choose this one!"

"I also choose this one!"

"I, I choose this one..."

Yu Man looked at herself not getting a single vote, and her heart broke.

"Who made that?" Mu Zhi asked in confusion, "And what is it?"

Yu Man saw Mu Zhi pointing at her ’food’ and remained silent.

She didn’t know how to cook, so she made a random stew, but she had no concept of time and cooked it for too long. The vegetable leaves were completely dissolved; the soup was a murky green that looked like poison...

"Not me."

Vivian shrugged, feeling quite relieved and said, "Ever since I decided to join this show, I knew there would be a cooking segment!"

"So I specifically took some lessons," Vivian said with a confident smile. "I can’t let my little darling eat bad food, can I?"

"I don’t want to just be a pretty face on the show~" Vivian shook her curls, her eyes filled with allure.

"There, that oil-braised shrimp was made by me!"

[My goddess is so genuine! It’s normal that she came prepared for the show, right? Not preparing at all might just be playing a role!]

Mansa was silent for a while and said, "I’ve been filming with the crew all the time, so I didn’t have time to learn..."

So, today’s dish was also her spontaneous idea.

"I like spicy food, so I made stir-fried chili meat."

If it weren’t for the fact that it was for the kids, she might have added more chili.

[Mansa can be described as desperately hardworking, just with a bad temper! Could it be that eating too many chilies has made her temper as fiery as them?]

[Hah, it’s not just bad, it’s downright nasty! Flaunting her status and hitting people on set! Her previous diligent persona must be fake! Wen Jin has such a mom, maybe he’s been abused all along!]

"Is that Yu Man’s dish?" Mu Zhi said in surprise, "Looks like it’s her first time cooking?"

"It’s okay." Mu Zhi laughed, "I wasn’t good at first either, just got interested in cooking, so I occasionally do it."

"You’re being modest," Vivian chuckled, "Was it you who made that fish? It’s beautiful, you see all the kids like it!"

"If it weren’t for the rule that you couldn’t vote twice for the same dish, you might even get eight votes!"

"That’s called sweet and sour fish; maybe it’s the tangy and sweet flavor that kids love." Mu Zhi smiled gently, "Thank you for the compliment."

[Mu Zhi is truly gentle! A suitable wife should be like this!]

"I’ll vote for the stir-fried chili meat," little Wen Jin placed another flower beside.

Brody looked at the serious little Wen Jin, "Oh?"

Little Wen Jin blushed and said, "My mom likes strong flavors, and this is so salty that I think it’s made by her..."

[Little Wen Jin is so cute! He’s out here exposing his mother’s secrets.]

"There’s still one more left, I’ll vote for this one!" Yu Manman hesitated and gave another flower to the dish with the worst appearance, which was Yu Man’s dish.

"Why?" Brody asked.

He knew that it was made by Yu Man, but Yu Manman didn’t know. Could it be that there was a mother-daughter connection?

"It’s actually quite tasty, just doesn’t look good..." Yu Manman blushed.

She also felt it was like something her mom would make...

The shrimp dish already had two flowers, so Yu Manman didn’t want her mom to feel sad.

And if it wasn’t, then the aunt who made this wouldn’t feel too sad.

[Hahaha! Could it be that our little friend Manman guessed it was made by her mom and is intentionally giving support?]

"Now we officially unveil the results. Let’s invite all the moms over!"

In the end, Mu Zhi received four flowers, Vivian two, while Yu Man and Mansa each got one.

"First place gets one hundred budget, second place fifty, third place thirty."

"Moreover, during this period, little Manman achieved the highest popularity score, earning an additional one hundred budget!"

Manman received quite a bit of favor when she played with Xu Wanwan and even had that incident with Song Chen...

With this, Yu Man unexpectedly got the most budget.

"This money will be your capital for tomorrow!"

Vivian’s eyes widened, "Director! What can I do with fifty Federal Coins?"

Brody laughed, "You can buy five nutrient solutions! If all else fails, you can live a day just drinking nutrient solution!"

"To live well, you must find ways to earn money!"

Vivian gave a playful hum, "Director, you’re so bad!"

"Alright! Now it’s time for our dinner session, we’ve added extra meals for everyone, but tomorrow there’ll only be one breakfast, and lunch and dinner will be up to you!"

"Oh yes!" Brody added, "Wasting food is disgraceful, so finish the dishes you’ve made!"

Yu Man looked at her dish with great anguish and sighed.

"Mama, it really is tasty!"

Yu Man felt her daughter was comforting her...

Yu Manman scooped a spoonful and happily started eating.

Though not gourmet, the taste was actually normal.

Moreover, this was the first time Manman ate Mama’s food!

Yu Man was extremely moved! Her daughter was so considerate!

She made a silent vow to make something great for her daughter tomorrow!

The day’s live stream was nearing its end, and Yu Man took Manman to live in a tent, watched the stars with her daughter, and picked flowers...

Manman lay in Yu Man’s arms, feeling incredibly happy!

"Mama, I made some friends today!"

"Mama, I really like you~" Manman muttered as she fell asleep.

Yu Man stroked Manman’s head, her eyes full of tenderness.

Bringing her daughter on the show and spending time alone with her, wasn’t it a whole new experience?

...

Early the next day, Yu Man woke up full of energy and picked many vibrant flowers with Manman.

However, she picked skillfully, cutting a stem from one place at a time, making it look as if there were no less, without damaging the garden.

"Yu Man, what are you doing?" Mansa asked, perplexed.

"Selling flowers, I checked with the show, it’s allowed!"

Mansa realized, "Can you do that?"

"Can I sell my RV..." Mansa asked the camera.

The camera shook its head directly at her.

No, you can’t!

"I’m off!" Yu Man carried two large baskets of flowers and left, finding a shady, crowded place to set up shop.

"Flowers for sale!"

"Flowers for sale~" Yu Manman cheerfully joined in the selling.

Selling flowers with Mama, how novel~

"How much?"

"Ten coins each!"

Yu Man looked attractive, and Manman was cute. Soon, they attracted many customers and the sales were quite good.

"How’s business going?" Mansa appeared, enjoying an ice cream with little Wen Jin.

"Not bad." Yu Man looked at her leisurely demeanor, filled with confusion, "You..."

"I earned some money, now I’m taking a break." Mansa casually sat down beside her.

"How did you earn it?" So quickly? She had only been selling for an hour.

"I spent all the money given by the show to play shooting games." Mansa flipped her short hair, "And I ended up winning a bunch of dolls."

"I sold them to other kids, earned a few hundred."

[Yeah, I saw the owner’s face turn green!]

[She hit every shot perfectly, making me excited to watch! Suddenly discovered Mansa is quite cool...]

[Haha! Have you forgotten, Mansa was a diva and hit people?]

"Really impressive..." Yu Man was astonished; earning money this way? Too bad she didn’t have the skill.

Mansa smirked, "What’s this? If it weren’t for..."

"Ah! Help!! A Deteriorated Species ran out and hurt people!"
