Chapter 29: Comparison

Mu Zhi was stunned, tasted it, and found that the fish actually had a hint of bitterness."What’s going on here?"

Mu Zhi quickly spat out the fish, "I’ve always made it this way, how could this happen?"

"Mama..." Amidst the confusion, Manman raised her little hand.

"What’s up, do you need to use the restroom?" Yu Man asked.

Manman shook her head, "No!"

"Mama, I heard that if the fish’s gall bladder bursts, the fish will turn bitter!"

In her past life, Yu Manman wasn’t initially raised by her mother, but sent to live with her grandmother in the countryside, and she learned some things there.

[Ding! You did a good deed by educating everyone, gaining 1 Luck Value!]

Yu Manman’s eyes shined slightly, is it really that easy? That’s great!


Mansa suddenly had a realization, "Oh!"

"Could it be that I accidentally burst the gall bladder while handling the fish?"

She had never handled fish before and really didn’t know!

"Can we still eat it?"

"Probably not, right?"

Mansa touched her nose, "Sorry, it’s all my fault, making you waste a dish."

Mu Zhi’s smile stiffened slightly, "It’s okay, you didn’t do it on purpose."

"Then let’s eat the shrimp! The shrimp is quite good!" Mansa picked up a big shrimp.

Mu Zhi had made boiled shrimp, and after cooking it, she had specifically arranged it on the plate.

Just as Mansa peeled the shrimp shell, she suddenly noticed a black line on the shrimp’s back.

"This is..."

Mansa picked it out and found it a bit dirty.

"I know!" Yu Manman raised her hand again, "Auntie, this is called the shrimp line, which is the shrimp’s intestine! The shrimp’s stomach is in its head!"

[Ding! With a kind heart, you educated everyone with unknown trivia! Reward increased by 1% spiritual power!]

"Wow! Manman is really smart," Mansa praised.

But Mu Zhi’s expression was somewhat awkward.

Cooked two dishes in a row, and both had problems.

"Ahem, we’ll just remove the shrimp line; it should still be edible." Mansa cleaned the shrimp meat, took a bite, "Tastes good."

[Females are just females, no common sense! Just know how to eat!]

[Mu Zhi knows how to cook, how come she doesn’t know about fish gall bladders or shrimp lines? I saw her just dump the shrimp into hot water, already knew this would happen!]

[Don’t know what’s the matter? What’s there to say! Watch the stream if you like, or leave!]

[Manman is really something! My kid just goes abba abba!]

During dinner, Mu Zhi only ate half full.

Intended to showcase her cooking skills, but everything went wrong...

"Beep beep beep!"

Suddenly, Yu Man’s Light Brain bracelet flashed green.

Everyone’s attention instantly turned to her.

"You’re pregnant?"

Mansa pointed at her Light Brain bracelet in surprise.

Everyone knows that a female’s Light Brain bracelet comes with a detection system, and once pregnancy is detected, it flashes green to remind.

Yu Man was also a bit dumbfounded. "I didn’t know?"

Vivian was also dumbfounded, a variety show with four moms, two are pregnant, what kind of bad luck is this? Encountering two pregnant women!

"Light Brain’s detection accuracy is as high as 90%, it shouldn’t be wrong! Just have the production team get you a doctor to find out, right?"

Yu Man looked at the green light flashing on her Light Brain bracelet, nodded in confusion.

Females are likely to be pregnant, so naturally, it can’t be taken lightly. Brody immediately called for a doctor.

The doctor, with a medical robot, examined Yu Man and finally confirmed that Yu Man was indeed pregnant!

"Mama! Am I going to be a sister?" Manman’s eyes were filled with anticipation!

She would definitely be good to her little brother or sister~

"Yes..." Yu Man still hadn’t fully processed the situation, her expression was still somewhat dazed.

"How can it be!" Mu Yaoyao stood up in shock, "Clearly, she won’t be pregnant for the next ten years..."

Her exclamation wasn’t loud, everyone else was focused on Yu Man, so naturally, no one heard.

Mu Yaoyao felt a bit panicked inside.

She always thought she had the upper hand, but now she realized things were very different from what she anticipated!

Could it be that her rebirth triggered a butterfly effect?

What to do now?

Mu Yaoyao felt momentarily bewildered, unable to calm down.

"Congratulations!" Brody was happy for Yu Man, but his smile carried a hint of bitterness.

What luck he had to have, a good variety show turned into two pregnant women!

Before this, Brody could already see the live stream.

Lots of netizens were calling him the ’Guanyin of Children’!

Ahhhh!

He actually didn’t want this nickname at all! What should he do about the upcoming shows?

Brody was really about to have a breakdown!

"Director, our live broadcast is trending again," someone whispered to Brody.

Who would have thought the show would become a hit in such a manner...

Brody took a deep breath, let it go.

"Doctor, please check Mu Zhi as well."

It’s only fair to treat both pregnant women equally...

Brody sighed.

But Mu Zhi didn’t see it that way.

What does it mean, ’also’? Is she just an add-on? Does she have to come after Yu Man?

The doctor examined Mu Zhi and replied, "Very healthy, no issues."

"That’s good." Brody nodded, "Everyone, please rest early, we still have a day of filming tomorrow."

Brody forced a smile.

He really had to think about what to do next...

Poor him!

That night, Brody was truly sleepless.

And just like him, Mu Zhi couldn’t sleep either.

After the broadcast ended, Mu Zhi quietly checked the live stream feedback in her room.

At the start of the live stream, although not all eyes were on her, the interest wasn’t low either.

But ever since Yu Man’s S-level Purification Master identity was revealed, more and more attention shifted to Yu Man.

Originally, after her own pregnancy news was exposed, she thought attention would return to her.

But instead, Yu Man also became pregnant, and everyone’s attention instantly shifted to Yu Man.

Mu Zhi turned over.

It’s not that she wanted fame, but her heart just wanted to surpass Yu Man.

However, people always like to compare themselves with those of similar status.

She and Yu Man lived close, almost neighbors.

She thought Yu Man was similar to her, in the same social stratum with similar situations.

They both had five Beast Husbands and a daughter.

But slowly, Mu Zhi found out that Yu Man’s Beast Husbands seemed more outstanding. It was rumored that one of Yu Man’s Beast Husbands was a Major General, and another was the CEO of a listed company...

Mu Zhi thought her Purification Talent was quite good, but Yu Man was even stronger.

She thought that being pregnant might give her an edge in terms of children, but Yu Man also became pregnant.

Once the comparison starts, it’s hard to stop; you always want to surpass the other in some way.

And the more you compare, the more distorted it becomes...
