Chapter 23, special care for Zhao Liying!
PS: There are three more watches, no matter how late it is, it will be completed. Calm down, everyone.
The trick was unsuccessful, the baby shrunk his neck, and then waved a shovel to join the ranks of digging the earth.
As the saying goes: men and women match, work is not tiring.
Maybe it's because there are three more warblers and Yanyan around him, so that Xu Rui himself feels that he seems to have inexhaustible strength in his body.
Soon, with the joint efforts of the three of them, a large pit with a depth of one meter was successfully excavated.
The temporary toilet is not so exquisite, two wooden planks are placed on top of the pit, and then built up with bricks one by one around to block the view, Xu Rui and the three of them worked for more than two hours, and finally built the toilet.
Compared with Xu Rui's light breeze, Zhao Liying, baby, and Zheng Shuang seemed to have done something great, jumping and cheering with each other for a while before returning to the house under Xu Rui's urging.
Xu Rui's group of toilet tasks were completed, but when he came to the kitchen to check how the other group was preparing lunch, he found that the four girls did not know how to use this stove to cook rice, and put the washed rice into the iron pot but did not know how much water needed to put it properly.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Rui had to take over the work and go into battle again in person, some things will not be inevitable for the first contact, and he did not plan that these girls who do not touch the spring water with their fingers can quickly adapt to the life of Tianshui Village.
After about an hour of busyness, the fragrant dishes and steaming rice were finally served on the table with the help of Xu Rui.
There are no chicken, duck and fish dishes, and the vegetable picking group with Tang Yan, Liu Shishi, Guo Biting, and Nini as a group just picked some cucumbers and tomatoes from the vegetable garden, and what makes people speechless is that these two vegetables are paired together in addition to making some cold dishes and soups, but there is no more choice.
Pat cucumber and tomato soup.
Although the tomato soup does not go with eggs, it tastes a little bland, but perhaps it is because the seven girls who experienced the abundance of food and clothing for the first time talked and laughed at the dinner table, and ate very happily.
After the meal, everyone took a short rest, and then the program team released the tasks to be completed in the afternoon to Xu Rui and the seven girls.
Picking August melons
August melon, also known as wild banana, is the fruit of the local clover of Huzhou Province, in addition to being edible, it also has a very high medicinal value.
The picking time of August melon is from September to October every year, and at this time, the "Youth Undefeated" program team is stationed in Tianshui Village, just in time for the picking period of this fruit.
It was still divided into two groups, Xu Rui and the slightly older Tang Yan led their respective members to the location of August melon as captains.
Not far away, the eight people changed into the work clothes provided by the program team, talked and laughed and came to a large area of August melon trees.
"Let's spread the knowledge to you!" Xu Rui pointed to the August melon tree beside him, "The fruits we picked today were placed in ancient times as a tribute to the royal family, which not only has rich nutritional value, but can also be refined into medicine to treat stomach bloating, urinary stones and other diseases." ”
"Wow! So powerful! ”
After Xu Rui's words were finished, the seven girls suddenly exclaimed.
Just looking at the ugly skin of the August melon, it is absolutely difficult to associate it with food and medicinal properties.
The surface of the fruit does not exude any attractive aroma, and it even looks a little like an irregularly shaped potato, but if you peel off the skin and bite into it, it is definitely much more delicious than common fruits such as apples and oranges.
"Alright, let's get to work. If the quantity picked is enough, we can also try it at that time. Xu Rui smiled slightly.
Picking fruit is a farm work that doesn't take much effort, and the sky gradually darkens under the noise.
In the evening, G7 and Xu Rui, who slowly picked two large baskets of August melons, handed these things over to local farmers, and then exchanged snack points from the program group.
As Xu Rui introduced at the beginning, he is self-sufficient, and if he doesn't work, he doesn't even have to eat.
After picking the August melons for an afternoon, including Xu Rui, they got a total of two points, ten yuan for one point, which means that the dinner of the eight of them will come out of the twenty yuan.
"Eight people, twenty dollars. We are so poor! After a day of getting along, they became familiar with each other, Liu Shishi looked at the two renminbi placed in front of everyone, and said weakly with her chin in her hand.
"Now the main thing is twenty dollars, what can we buy to eat? Do you still want to go to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables? Nini said she didn't want to go, and her little face was bitter.
"The vegetable garden is not ours either, and from this afternoon we will only be able to complete tasks in exchange for food." Xu Rui reminded in time.
The vegetable garden at the back of their house belongs to the owner, and if you want to eat vegetables, you must first say hello to them.
What's more, if you have already eaten it once, you can't have so many people go to someone's vegetable garden every day to pick vegetables, right?
"If you buy instant noodles for 20 yuan, you should be able to buy a lot, right? Enough for eight of us to eat. Baby suggested.
Instant noodle?
All right! It's barely a good idea.
To buy dried noodles, you also need to marinade, and instant noodles come with a seasoning package, and the taste is also acceptable.
"I finally understand what youth is, youth is suffering, starving, working and working non-stop." Guo Biting sighed sadly.
"It's okay, it's all about losing weight." Tang Yan chuckled and patted Guo Biting's shoulder and comforted her.
Xu Rui and Zhao Liying went to the supermarket to buy instant noodles together, and the remaining six girls in the family brushed the pot and boiled the water, preparing the preliminary work for dinner.
On the way to the supermarket, Xu Rui said without words: "Liying, are you still single now?" ”
"Yes." Zhao Liying paused for a moment, and then nodded lightly.
"One thing I found is, why do you have to buffer every time you ask you before answering? Haha, are you thinking of the answer? Xu Rui deliberately teased Zhao Liying and said.
After a whole day of contact, Xu Rui still has a good impression of this girl with a pure appearance, she doesn't talk much, and her personality is a little cowardly, but the cuteness that is revealed from time to time can still arouse the favor of men.
"Uh...... Of course not. Zhao Liying blinked her clear and bright eyes, hesitated for a second, and then shook her head with a red face and vetoed.
Laymen may not know, but the cameraman who has been following the two has discovered Xu Rui's special care for Zhao Liying.
This kind of outdoor variety show is very casual, especially with the relationship of seven female guests, which means that the weight of each episode of the show will be different when it is finally edited into a feature film.
In other words, whoever has a strong sense of artistry will have more appearances, and this opportunity may not be important for artists who have become famous, but it is a very rare opportunity for everyone in the G7 members.
And Xu Rui, who is the core of "Undefeated Youth", there is no doubt that no matter what, the heaviest weight in the final broadcast must be the person who often stays by his side.
