Chapter 346: Spring Equinox (I)
March 20, the vernal equinox.
In the afternoon, in front of a farmhouse at the end of a village in Gangwon-do, the filming of "Three Hours and Three Meals" began.
"It really has a sense of "Youth Undefeated". Kim Jong-ming sat alone on the stone platform in the courtyard, looking around as he spoke, while he was facing Luo Yingshi under the camera. "Did you dig the toilet over there?"
"How is that possible?" Luo Yingshi shook his head repeatedly. "However, the toilet door was specially renovated to prevent accidental entry into the ......"
Jin Zhongming narrowed his eyes, not dwelling on this issue, because he quickly noticed something else: "The stove under this eaves is always made by you......, right? Do you really want to cook in an earthen pot?"
"That's right, you can't use electrical equipment when you come here, right? ”
"This sauce jar was rented from the villagers, right?"
"There's a miso in there. ”
"I know all the greens here, but what's in the field over there, sweet potatoes?" Jin Zhongming continued to look around.
"You haven't been to the country for too long, how can there be a sweet potato at this time? That's a potato. ”
Jin Zhongming was immediately embarrassed for a few seconds. However, it was only a matter of seconds, and the relief came quickly.
"oppa!" Chu Long, who had slipped to the side of the room, suddenly shouted excitedly. "Come and see, bring Baker here!"
Jin Zhongming didn't know why, but after looking at Luo Yingshi, who had slightly curled the corners of his mouth and seemed to know what was going on, he quickly got up and walked towards the back of the house with Baker. And as soon as he turned the corner of the house, he completely understood...... It turned out that Chu Long and Zhao Yan were looking at a very big goat with excitement and curiosity on their faces, plus a hint of fear.
"Is it to call Baker over to be a shepherd dog?" Zhao Yan immediately made a joke, of course the leashed goats don't need to be grazed, and this kind of show is impossible to raise.
But don't say it, Baker immediately stepped forward curiously, and then a dog and a sheep looked at each other in a stunned manner.
"Are you in a confrontation?" Chu Long curiously waved his hand at the meeting of the goat's and Baker's gaze, causing the two animals to look at her silently, startling her.
"Maybe they're introducing themselves in a language we can't hear. Zhao Yan was also amused.
"Do you still need to raise sheep?" Jin Zhongming was sensitive to the malice of the program team, which was obviously adding difficulty to himself!
"That's right. Luo Yingshi replied with a rare positive color. "The so-called three meals at three times actually has only one theme, and that is to be self-sufficient to solve the problem of three meals a day. However, you are not only responsible for your own meals, but also for the animals, and even for the visitors!"
"In a self-sufficient state, you are still responsible for feeding pets and guests?" Compared with the two girls who were still immersed in excitement, Jin Zhongming, who was particularly familiar with this program team, was obviously more worried.
"Don't sigh all the time. A female writer interjected with a smile on her face. "It's time to go see the house......"
As soon as the words fell, Chu Long and Zhao Yan put down the goat together and went into the house, as if the two were still captured by their own novelty, and then they were ignorant of the difficulties they were about to face.
Even so, though, the room is something to see.
However, it doesn't matter what he looks at, as soon as he took off his shoes and entered the room, Jin Zhongming couldn't help but squint his eyes: "It looks so big on the outside, but there are only two rooms inside?"
"Hey. Luo Yingshi nodded unceremoniously.
"Or is it just a room divided by a temporary wooden partition?" Jin Zhongming continued to ask speechlessly.
"That's right. Luo Yingshi still disagreed.
"Is there a problem, Zhong Ming?" Zhao Yan asked casually while crouching in the corner, curiously rummaging through a pile of old newspapers.
"Of course there is a problem. Jin Zhongming replied a little helplessly. "We're going to spend the night here. ”
"Overnight, overnight......" Zhao Yan replied nonchalantly, but immediately reacted suddenly. "Do you want to spend the night?"
"Inevitably, three meals a day, breakfast and dinner are here, so maybe you have to stay two nights a week. Jin Zhongming replied affirmatively.
"That's it. Luo Yingshi did not hesitate to agree with this speculation.
At this moment, Chu Long, who was fiddling with the wooden compartment, was also shocked...... There are only two rooms here, and they are still two rooms separated by wooden boards!
"Ladies sleep inside, men sleep outside. Luo Yingshi said regardless of the arrangement.
"That'...... What about bathing and bathing?" Chu Long couldn't help but ask.
"Ladies can borrow the TV station's RV for showers. Luo Yingshi's face was as usual, as if he had already made arrangements. "Zhong Ming will use the pressurized water well at the door to solve it, and he will definitely not give him any convenient ...... in this regard."
Jin Zhongming couldn't help but want to sneer, but the writers next to him simply laughed.
"And where do Baker and the goats sleep?" God knows how Zhao Yan came up with this question.
"This ...... The goat can sleep outside, Baker ...... "Luo Yingshi was stumped by this question, because he suddenly found that he couldn't give up on Baker, even if this was Baker III, but it was too similar to the previous Baker, anyway, he just couldn't bear it." "Baker can't sleep in, but you need to make a nest for it......"
"We have to build a nest for Mr. Goat first. Jin Zhongming suddenly yawned. "Baker is furry and will be fine wherever he sleeps, but Mr. Goat will not be good if he gets drenched in the rain...... And we have to give it a name, otherwise we can't keep calling it Goat or Mr. Goat...... Let's go to the yard and talk about it!"
Jin Zhongming said this for a reason, the furnishings in the room in front of him are too simple, there are no tables and no chairs, at first glance it is used for simple rest, but in the courtyard, there is a large cement platform placed there early, as if it is a prepared 'conference room', and even if it rains, the wooden corridor under the eaves of the corridor is also a good place to go.
"How about calling Mr. Goat Corbe?" As soon as she sat down, Zhao Yan touched Baker's head and proposed her own idea.
"Is Baker the other way around?" Chu Long shook his head rarely. "It's going to be confusing, it's definitely going to be ......"
"What's that called, Chu Long, do you have a good idea?" Zhao Yan asked rhetorically without showing weakness.
"How about calling Kobe?" Chu Long didn't know where the inspiration came from. "It's not going to be confusing!"
"Hey......"
"Where's the rice?" "The cat in our dorm room is called coal. ”
"I still think Corbe has a lot of feelings, Mr. Goat and Baker just now. Zhao Yan still did not give up her opinion. "Zhong Ming, which name do you think is good?"
"Oppa......?" Chu Long couldn't help but shout Jin Zhongming, who seemed to be in a trance.
"Today is the vernal equinox. Kim Jong-ming stared at the sky above his head that he didn't know when it had become gloomy, and at the same time gave a new choice that he was absent-minded. "Why don't you just call it the equinox!"
The "spring equinox ......" seems to be unfinished.
"The spring equinox is the spring equinox. "Zhao Yan agreed to it.
"The vernal equinox is not impossible. Chu Long replied a little helplessly, but at the same time asked curiously. "But how do you feel that oppa, you are not in a good mood, and you have been looking at the sky with a sad face?
Jin Zhongming immediately glanced at the other party expressionlessly: "So, are you going to teach me how to do variety shows?"
Chu Long and Zhao Yan couldn't help but glance at each other, and they inevitably felt a little weak.
"As a senior in variety shows, especially the right-hand man under Luo PD, I have to give you a lesson today, and the name is how to survive under Luo Yingshi PD!"
The open courtyard immediately burst into laughter.
"The first one, always set the goal on survival, for the most basic survival needs, from a pair of chopsticks to a potato, you must be with Luo Yingshi PD pounds, you can take a bite more. Jin Zhongming tore it unceremoniously with a straight face. "The second one, never put extra energy on being funny! That's the basic program for surviving under Kim Tae-ho PD, and playing variety shows in that way here will be hated by Luo PD. ”
The staff of the program team laughed even more, Luo Yingshi was also speechless, and Chu Long and Zhaoyan looked at each other and were at a loss.
"I'm not kidding. Jin Zhongming turned his head and said to the two girls. "Luo Yingshi PD and Kim Tae-ho PD are the real two major genres in the Korean variety show industry, the latter's program is the ultimate, it is a very comedic drama! And the former's program is the ultimate, it is a kind of naturally revealed documentary! So the kind of dispute you just had when naming the goat will really make Luo PD annoying, there is no need to create topics and jokes so deliberately here for him...... Naturally, you can. ”
Zhaoyan and Chu Long were even more overwhelmed.
"Actually, there is no need to say that. Jin Zhongming looked up at the sky again, and then his face was full of melancholy. "Soon you will be bullied by Luo PD and his demon subordinates desperate for survival, the last play before going to the execution ground, you can do it!"
"It's not as exaggerated as you say......" Luo Yingshi immediately wanted to explain.
"Let's work!" Jin Zhongming stood up suddenly, not giving Luo Yingshi a chance to speak. "The weather is not very good, it is likely to rain, before dinner we have to build a temporary shelter for the spring equinox, preferably with hay or straw, so that it can avoid the rain and cold, and if you are hungry, you can gnaw two shacks. I have experience in this matter, and you two will be at my command...... Sister Zhaoyan went to the field over there to drag straw, the air was a little damp, look for it from the innermost, the kind that should be as dry as possible, Chu Long went to the village with the people of the program team to buy planks and borrow tools, and I will measure the regulations of the sheep nest over there...... Work separately!"
The two girls who had been trained to be overwhelmed scattered in a hurry after they had the backbone.
"The first day was good. As soon as the person left, Luo Yingshi couldn't help but spit out. "And what are you telling them to do that?"
"If you want to say it, you can say it. Jin Zhongming was completely unimpressed. "If you don't think it's appropriate, pinch off ......"
"Actually, it's pretty good. A writer suddenly interjected, but was immediately glanced at by Luo Yingshi and stopped.
Aside from the novelty at the beginning, the rest of the game doesn't go so smoothly...... This is normal, no variety show will have smooth sailing on the first day, you have to grope for it. Even at the end of a show, what you want to present is completely different from what you originally wanted to present...... This is also normal.
The show said that it was "Three Hours and Three Meals", but the first nail came out of the shack for the goats called the spring equinox!
Of course, Zhaoyan completed the task, and although she was startled by the centipedes in the corn stalks pile, it was still okay to grit her teeth and drag enough dry straw. Of course, judging from her choice of one root and then the speed of transporting two roots at a time, this person can indeed be said to have never done farm work before.
Chu Long's side is slower, but the completion of the task is very high, this is probably because the enthusiasm of the nearby villagers is too much, and the tools provided are too complete, not to mention, the five or six saws of different shapes lined up along the corridor are quite scary! However, Chu Long, who can hold so many saws in one go, is even more terrifying! Moreover, she was carrying a small pumpkin in her hand at the time, which is said to be a gift from the villagers who borrowed the saw.
So since the two girls have basically completed their tasks, what is the problem? Needless to say, the problem must be in Kim Jong-ming! This self-proclaimed variety show expert and country survival expert has not been to the countryside for a long time, and he completely overestimates the proficiency of his various skills, and when he used to make a nest with a saw, he had Kim Tae-woo's bear by his side, and there were seven or eight little girls to help, but now there are only two of them......
"It's too late to finish today. After a hard afternoon, he was nailing nails and sawing planks, but Jin Zhongming finally put down what he was holding reluctantly, because he sensitively noticed that the program team over there was already discussing the issue of dinner...... Three meals at three o'clock, no matter how much water you have in this first shooting, you have to make a whole meal, right?
"Fried potatoes. Of course, the program team will not ignore the predicament of the three people, and they came up and gave an extremely simple dinner recipe, the potatoes are in the field over there, and they are dug directly, and other side dishes can be used casually in the vegetable garden in front of them.
However, it turns out that nothing is simple for the first time, and all simplicity is seeming and self-righteous...... After Jin Zhongming was planted on the chicken coop, the program team that gave the order for the first time was also planted in this strange and unexpected problem of the first dinner, and even Chu Long and Zhao Yan, who were quite smooth before, immediately encountered the first impact brought by the countryside!
The first accident was very simple, it was the spring equinox, the sky was gloomy, the two girls who went to dig potatoes each went down with a hoe, Chu Long used too much force, and cut the largest potato directly in half in the mud;
Bai Shengsheng and bloody, the two of them almost didn't cry on the ground.
However, after finally picking up some potatoes and washing them and cutting them into slices, a new big problem immediately arose.
"It's not on fire!" Zhao Yan, who was in charge of lighting the fire, turned pale, as if she hadn't recovered from the half-frog that had lost its head.
Jin Zhongming, who had just washed the rice, immediately ran over and took the matches, and then put the three together and drew them...... But it's useless to finish a whole box, obviously. The weather was gloomy, the air humidity was high, and the matches provided by the program team were all damp.
Luo Yingshi PD was very embarrassed, he was still exchanging ideas with Jin Zhongming of Taomi just now, because the program team had been meticulous enough to give the three of them a few bowls, a few pairs of chopsticks, and a few two meters. Jin Zhongming complained about this, and Luo Yingshi insisted that the things provided by the program team were enough to complete three meals a day, and said that he would not give more chopsticks!
But as soon as he finished speaking, he had to pinch his nose and slap himself in the face and hand over a new box of dry matches.
However, it was still not easy to make a fire, because the firewood given by the program team was also damp, but fortunately, Chu Long remembered that there was a whole stack of newspapers in the room...... That was when the program team was originally going to let the three of them bind the wall, but at this time, they didn't care much, half a stack of newspapers was stuffed in, and the flames finally got up!
Whether it was the three of them or the program team, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief...... But the new problem of slapping the face is coming, the firewood is too damp, the level of Zhaoyan's fire is too watery, the direction of the stove built by the program is not right, and the smoke is rolling towards the door!
Luo Yingshi almost didn't faint.
In desperation, the three of them adjusted their respective tasks with each other, Chef Kim Jong-myung was transferred to take care of the stove, Chu Long, who was in charge of cooking rice, was promoted to chef to be in charge of cooking, and Zhao Yan went to cook.
With such an adjustment, no matter how it was, the three of them finally managed to make a meal after tossing all night...... But the trouble is still there!
Chu Long often goes into the kitchen, and her potato chips are quite decent, but she never expected that the eldest Zhaoyan is a ten-finger person who does not touch the spring water, and a pot of rice is half-cooked by her, and it is difficult to swallow at all...... To tell the truth, this really reminded Kim Jong Ming of the first meal of Yuna's variety show, this group of idols, who have practiced this and that since childhood, they have gone here and there after their debut, how many of them really went to the kitchen?
In short, just like the crow's beak in the afternoon, the conversation that named the 'spring equinox' in the afternoon was really the last relaxing moment before going to the execution ground.
Don't talk about that, back to the dinner in front of me, I can only say that the potato chips are still hungry. As for the raw rice, it's just that no one eats it...... I gave Baker a bowl, and after he ate it, he didn't touch the second bowl, and poured some into the basin of the equinox, and he didn't look much interested in the equinox twice.
The first meal, it seems, can only be like this.
"It's all my fault!" "Barely finished eating, on the cement platform in the yard, Zhaoyan, who was reluctant to let go of a large pot of raw rice, was aggrieved and almost didn't shed tears for the second time.
"Once raw and twice ripe. "Today's biggest hero, Chu Long, can only be so comforted.
Zhao Yan couldn't help but sneak a glance at Jin Zhongming, but the other party didn't mean to comfort her at all, but once again put on that sad face and stared directly at the sky - and at this time, the sky was obviously dark.
“oppa。 Chu Long noticed Zhao Yan's small movements, and couldn't help but tug Jin Zhongming. "It's dark, what are you still looking at?"
"I'm just watching the dark. Jin Zhongming got up with a sad face and replied. "It's not right to get dark too quickly, and it's damp everywhere...... I'm afraid it's going to rain. ”
What to say, before the words fell, a lightning bolt slipped overhead, and then a muffled thunder almost didn't startle the two girls.
"Not so fast. Jin Zhongming turned around and comforted. "The spring rain takes a long time for the thunder to start falling...... Go back to the house and make your beds, and I'll look around the yard to see if there's anything to tidy up." ”
Chu Long and Zhao Yan originally wanted to stay and check together, but there was an amazing lightning bolt in the air, and the two of them were immediately so frightened that they didn't dare to say anything, but it was also interesting that Zhao Yan was still holding her own pot of raw rice before leaving.
Before, Jin Zhongming said that Luo Yingshi's show is a documentary to the extreme, and he is not worthy of this evaluation at all, when the girls entered the house, this pd was so excited that VJ went to shoot lightning...... This kind of close-up of the scenery is what he can do alone in the variety show.
However, at the same time, Jin Zhongming, who came back after a circle, became more and more sad: "Luo PD, there is nothing else to say...... But what should we do with the spring equinox? The dry straw that I finally got will definitely be soaked when it rains. ”
"That's no problem!" thunder rumbled, and Luo Yingshi replied loudly without hesitation. "I know what you mean, but the program team will not show favoritism, so they can only let the vernal equinox deal with it in the corridor overnight, let alone straw. ”
Jin Zhongming suddenly exhaled a long breath...... This answer was actually expected by him, but hearing it with his own ears still played a feeling of being cut off, and in this case, he could do his best.
"What are you going to do?" After a few minutes, Luo Yingshi, who thought that the other party had turned around and returned to the room, was dumbfounded, it turned out that Jin Zhongming actually picked up the saw again, and then continued to do the work that was not done in the afternoon - making a nest for the goats on the spring equinox.
"Make a nest for the spring equinox!" replied Jin Zhongming as a matter of course. "Help to give some lights, the light of the lightning is not bright enough......"
"It's going to rain. Although he knew the other party's character, Luo Yingshi was still a little weak and speechless.
"Haven't you gone down yet?" replied disapprovingly, Jin Zhongming, who had already started working. "What if it is done before the rain? Besides, what if it rains? Spring rain is like this, the so-called thunder is loud and the rain is small, as long as it can be done before the straw is watered, it is better than letting Sister Zhaoyan work hard for a day......
Luo Yingshi was speechless, and could only let the other party do it.
However, in the midst of lightning and thunder, the spring rain finally came as scheduled, and it was much heavier than the imaginary drizzle...... In the rain, Jin Zhongming was unmoved, and Luo Yingshi and others, who knew his stinky temper, had to just look at it.
However, the two girls, who had made their beds in the house and then prepared a cardboard fence for Baker, finally realized what was happening in the yard, and they began to brave the lightning and thunder to take turns to give Kim Jong-ming an umbrella, and finally the three of them were drenched enough.
After a lot of hard work, there will always be a result...... After working hard against the rain for more than an hour, the goat equinox was given a temporary home, with sturdy planks forming a roof and a fence on only one side for the time being, and then the roof overhead was temporarily covered with several disposable raincoats to stop the rain. What's even more surprising is that after the top layer of wet straw was removed, most of the straw below was indeed not wet.
This makes everyone feel that the hard work has not been in vain.
"OPPA is hard, I can't take a shower in this weather, so wash my hands and go into the room to rest. At this moment, Chu Long, who was squatting in the corridor, suddenly opened his mouth.
PS: I feel like I can't write variety shows again......
ps: There are also book friend group 457160898, everyone add it.
