By the time Chu Weiwei and the others had finally finished planting all the rice seedlings, it was already past noon.

The men were starving, but they had no time to rest because the farmers had also brought over a load of fertilizer.

Upon smelling the intoxicating aroma, Angela immediately vomited, while Chu Weiwei also barely managed to hold it in, her face pale.

When the farmer said that the task would not be complete until the fertilizer was properly applied, the men's expressions varied, and clearly, none of them wanted to take on the job.

Cheng Youjun spoke first, deliberately feigning discomfort as he rubbed his forehead and swayed slightly.

"Honey, I think I'm getting a bit of heatstroke. I did all the rice planting earlier, so you'll have to take care of the rest. I'm going to rest for a bit, and I'll come back to help you when I'm ready."

Before Chu Weiwei could even speak, Cheng Youjun had already slipped away and gone to cool off under the shed with Chen Hao.

Only Chu Weiwei and Angela remained in the field. In order to complete the task and have a hot meal, the two of them could only grit their teeth and cover their noses while fertilizing.

The comments section was filled with insults.

Has Cheng Youjun finally given up and succumbed to the fertilizer?

[I saw it yesterday. This guy is a real actor, but deep down he doesn't really care much for his wife. Look, when it really matters, he's the first to run away.]

Compared to him, Chen Hao seems somewhat more agreeable. After all, Chen Hao doesn't even pretend, while Cheng Youjun is both pretentious and affected. That kind of person is truly terrifying.

[They're nothing compared to the two couples next door. Old Song and Old Fu barely let Director Meng and Su Su get involved the whole time. Even when the fertilizer smelled awful, their first instinct was to prevent Xiangxiang's wife from touching it.]

Old Song and Old Fu are real men, but Cheng Youjun and Chen Hao are scumbags, the worst of men.

When Chu Weiwei and Angela finally finished all the work, the production team announced that the final winner was Meng Tang and Li Su's group.

Not only in speed, but also in quality, they far surpassed Chu Weiwei and her group.

Although each group received a different amount of ingredients in the end, Chu Weiwei and her group lost and only received a small amount, which was not enough for four people to eat.

On the other hand, Meng Tang and her group not only had plenty of food, but also got to rest in the evening and enjoy a free dinner prepared by the production team. It's like there's no harm in comparison.

Finally, they were able to have a proper dinner. Meng Tang and Li Su only needed to eat rice, while Song Guanting and Fu Jishu took care of all the hands-on work, such as peeling shrimp.

In stark contrast to their harmonious and warm atmosphere, Chu Weiwei and Angela were the main characters.

Cheng Youjun and Chen Hao both said they couldn't cook, so the task of cooking naturally fell to Chu Weiwei and Angela.

Cheng Youjun, for the sake of his image, at least lent a hand, while Chen Hao was too lazy to pretend at all and simply lay down on the recliner.

He perfectly exemplified what it means to truly lie flat until the end of the show, and even more so, he showed no fear whatsoever, even when the comments section was filled with insults directed at him.

Unexpectedly, halfway through cooking, Angela suddenly swayed and collapsed unconscious without warning.

Meng Tang and the others were also halfway through their meal when they learned that Angela had fainted, so they rushed to the clinic immediately.

The doctor said that Angela fainted due to extreme fatigue and mild heatstroke, and that she needed to be given glucose.

Just two bottles cost two hundred, and it takes two sessions to fully recover.

Each couple only has one hundred dollars, so four couples would have four hundred dollars. If they use all of it to pay, they would have no money left.

However, this is Angela and her husband's business. If Meng Tang and the others don't want to get involved, that's fine too.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Hao simply shrugged and said, "I don't have any money. When I went on that show, they took my phone and SIM card. I only have a hundred yuan left."

"If I pay this hundred yuan, am I supposed to eat dirt for the next two weeks? If you ask me, why give her glucose? She's always been healthy. She can just go home, get some sleep, and drink some water and she'll be fine. There's no need to waste this money."

Such a shameless and heartless statement left not only Meng Tang and her group speechless, but even the comments section was filled with astonishment.

Meng Tang gave Chen Hao a cold look and took out her hundred without hesitation.

Without hesitation, Li Su took out one hundred.

"There are two hundred here. Let's hang up the glucose first. Nothing is more important than your health."

Unexpectedly, at the crucial moment, only Meng Tang and Li Su stood up. Angela's eyes were filled with tears and gratitude.

"This is all your money. If you use it all to buy glucose, you'll have no money left. That won't do..."

Meng Tang simply said, "Money can be earned back, and it's only a hundred yuan. Do you really think we can live on a month's salary with just a hundred yuan? The production team will definitely have activities to make money later on. Don't worry, with our abilities, we won't go hungry."

Li Su also replied, "It's most important for you to get well. Besides, it's just a show. There's no need to jeopardize your health. Just rest and recover."

Unexpectedly, when her life was in danger, only these two complete strangers were willing to step forward and help her. Angela thanked them with tears in her eyes and accepted their help.

During this process, Song Guanting and Fu Jishu did not express any dissatisfaction with the decision made by Meng Tang and the others. On the contrary, they fully supported their wives' decision.

Chu Weiwei and Cheng Youjun were naturally reluctant to spend money, but seeing that the comments were praising Meng Tang and the others, they couldn't be too stingy for the sake of traffic.

After hesitating for a while, Chu Weiwei took out fifty yuan after obtaining Cheng Youjun's consent.

"Here's fifty yuan. Take good care of yourself. If there's anything we can help with, just let us know."

Although you can't give all the money, you can do someone a favor first and gain some goodwill.

As expected, there were fewer comments criticizing Chu Weiwei and Cheng Youjun, because all the criticism was directed at Chen Hao.

Chen Hao not only didn't pay a cent, but also said matter-of-factly, "Two bottles are enough. As long as you don't get dizzy, don't waste any more money."

Angela was furious but dared not speak out.

Chen Hao didn't even want to stay with her; he simply left while Angela was receiving glucose.

Meng Tang said to Song Guanting, "Go and bring some dinner over. She hasn't eaten much all day, so she must be having low blood sugar."

"Director Meng, Ms. Li, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would be dead."

Meng Tang patted the back of her hand to comfort her: "It was nothing. Although it's just a TV show, true friendship is revealed in times of trouble. I hope that through this program, you can understand whether your marriage is worthwhile."

Angela was stunned, as if she had never, or rather, never dared to think about this question.

But Meng Tang told her...

"Life is but a short few decades. Whether it's your parents, husband, or children, the only one who can truly guarantee your well-being is yourself. Treating yourself well is the key to true happiness."
