Jiang Ning said, "I'm not afraid of growing a beard, I'll eat as much as I want!"
Xue Yuantong stubbornly said, "You think I'll be scared?"
Seeing the childish argument between the two, Xue Chuchu smiled lightly, "Jiang Ning, you should compete with Tongtong to see who can eat less."
Xue Yuantong immediately admitted defeat and announced that she had become a loner, even Chuchu had betrayed her.

That evening they decided to eat loaches, but they faced a problem, the loaches caught from the pond were wild, lived in the mud, and were very dirty, requiring careful handling.
The best way was to keep the loaches in clean water for a couple of days to let them expel the dirt inside them.
But Xue Yuantong wanted to eat them that same night.
Xue Chuchu said, "You can eat them. Treating them with table salt can make the loaches purge the dirt and also remove the earthy taste."
Xue Yuantong recalled, "I think that's how it's handled."
