Chapter 236 - 236: 236: This man ‘s life skills are basically zero!
“Baron Lawrence, why did you throw away the leaves?
She put down the vegetable and looked, oh my God, he had tossed a lot. There were hardly any leaves left in the vegetable basket, all of them ended up in the trash can.
Baron Lawrence didn’t think he made a mistake at all. He calmly looked up and said, “That leaf was too dirty, there was soil on it.”
If she couldn’t take him in a fight, Enna Clark really wanted to pick up the vegetable basket and bash him on the head!
“It naturally grew in the soil, so of course there’s going to be some soil on it, it would be strange if there wasn’t!”
“Who told you that? Don’t you know that scientists from Country W have long discovered the nutritional components in soil, and according to those components they created a nutrient solution. As long as the seeds are soaked in this nutrient solution, they can grow without any soil.”
Enna Clark was so tickled by his absurd logic, “Alright, let’s say that leaf did have soil on it, what about the others? Why did you throw them away too?”
“They were too small, looked too old. Or the leaves were curled up, or there were insect holes on them…” he unreasonably bit back, “Enna Clark, I hate to say this, but what in the world are you buying? Can’t you look before you buy? You bring back all sorts of rubbish!”
Enna Clark snatched the bag of mustard cabbage and didn’t bother speaking to him anymore.
Baron Lawrence didn’t expect such an attitude from her, even though he had already agreed to help.
All of a sudden, he wore an iron face, growling, “Enna Clark, what’s your problem!”
Enna Clark couldn’t be bothered to waste words with him, she shoved the potatoes into his arms, “I don’t need you to pick vegetables anymore, but you should at least be able to peel, right? The knife is on the table, use that fruit knife there, help me peel these potatoes.”
Still unsure, she added, “These are all fresh potatoes, the skin will easily peel off, don’t end up peeling away the entire potato.”
Having said that, she picked up the bag and got busy inside.
Baron Lawrence, with a bellyful of rage, maintains his iron face. More than a few times he wanted to give up and leave the task. His expressions changed for a whole week, then his jaw tightened, and picking up the fruit knife on the coffee table, started peeling the potatoes…
The speed of two people cooperating was much faster than one person working alone.
In the blink of an eye, Enna Clark had the soup simmering in the pot. The cola chicken wings and tomato beef brisket were also ready. She was just waiting for Bobby to come back to make his favorite boiled beef. She glanced at the time and saw that it was already six o’clock. Bobby should be coming back soon…
Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
The doorbell rang with a ‘ding dong’, and Enna Clark’s cellphone followed suit, and the call would of course be from their Bobby.
“He’s here.”
She had just stepped out of the kitchen when the door was already being pushed open with a ‘click’.
“Woman, I’m back…” Bobby’s childish voice came to an abrupt stop.
Enna Clark’s heart jumped, and she hurriedly rushed out.
Indeed, in the entrance hall stood two, one big and one small, staring at each other.
Bobby was sizing up the ‘strange man’ in the house with a displeased look, his tiny defensive spikes shooting up all over him.
Enna Clark quickly intervened, “Darling, you’re back? Hurry up and come in to change your shoes.”
Bobby, with his Boonie Bears schoolbag on, first entered the house. While changing his shoes, he quickly noticed that Baron Lawrence had taken his precious new slipper, and anger flashed in his phoenix eyes. But he hid it very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he was back to his usual self.. Once he finished changing his shoes, he looked up at Enna Clark and asked, “Mummy, is this Uncle the same colleague you mentioned before who helped bring up the desk?”
