253. Hurt each other
The old grandmother was cautious in her eyes, as if she was worried that her family's food would be rude, but she felt that she should give these stars who helped with the work a bite to eat.
Surprisingly, these stars really helped.
Especially the good-looking young man in front of him, he doesn't look like a person who can do farm work, but he is very skilled in cutting rice, and his work is no worse than hers, and he doesn't look like a star in her impression at all.
Although the old man smoking a hookah next to him did not speak, he kept looking at them with concern, and there was a big idea that the old woman couldn't solve it, so he would go out.
It was difficult to resist the hospitality, Li Yi and the others glanced at each other, and decided to go, and they could send something back later.
Not to mention anything else, the various gifts of the sponsors of the program group are enough.
The old man's home is a two-story building, and the outside has not been tiled and renovated, revealing red bricks and pimple-like cement.
The two were called Liu Fugui and Wang Fang respectively, and they only smiled shyly at Zhang Lei's title, and they didn't mind calling their grandparents all morning.
Lin Dan suddenly asked curiously, "Grandparents, how old are you?" ”
The little boy took the money and ran out obediently, Li Yi wanted to say no, but he didn't stop it, people's intentions, refusal will make them feel unhappy.
"You!"
"Come, drink tea first." The old man poured tea for everyone in a disposable cup.
Fortunately, Lin Dan really didn't think of what else he could buy at the village commissary.
Wang Huaizhong didn't even want to waste the strength to reply, he just rolled his eyes.
You must know that this 100 yuan is almost enough for Liu Fugui to find a harvester to harvest the remaining rice.
"You're happy, aren't you? Memories are deep enough, right? Li Yi mocked Wang Huaizhong, who was paralyzed on the floor like a dead fish when he returned to the mushroom house.
Li Yi is really hungry, silently cooking, he doesn't like to eat trash fish very much, there are a lot of spines, it is very troublesome to eat, but this soup is very delicious, delicious, there is no fishy smell at all, and he also added his favorite coriander, every sip is very satisfying, he even made two bowls.
Zhang Lei, who was also paralyzed on the floor, kicked Wang Huaizhong weakly.
He hurriedly went out and glanced at the vegetable basket in Liu Fugui's hand: "What are you doing here?" ”
got the answer they didn't want to see, and Li Yi and the others looked at each other.
The old man took a sip of rice wine and said casually: "I'm fifty-three, and she's just fifty." ”
Lin Dan patted Wang Huaizhong's thigh and comforted: "After all, it is the last time to record, and we also want to leave you with a deep memory." ”
"January's."
Including Wang Huaizhong, everyone else had the same idea, just wanted to go back and lie down and take a nap.
I didn't work any less, and I didn't suffer any less anger.
The two old men were embarrassed to keep saying: "Poor hospitality, poor hospitality." ”
Wang Huaizhong cooperated very well with the effect of the show, and dared to be angry but did not dare to speak: "Go and go!" ”
Lin Dan originally wanted to praise them for their hard bones along this topic, but he heard the words that made him stunned.
Without rushing back to the mushroom house, Li Yi drove an electric three-wheeler to the village store and said, "Xiao Wang, I want to eat ice cream." ”
Wang Huaizhong didn't panic: "I'll order takeout for you, you can eat whatever you want." ”
Outside the house there was the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and soon the old man came back with a hen in his hand.
This used reason is quite useful, Liu Fugui and Wang Fang both stopped pushing and shoving, looked at several staff members carrying cameras, opened their mouths and wanted to say something, but they didn't know what to say.
But this is the Li Yi they know, focusing on a reality.
Li Yi shook his head and said: "Actually, when we recorded the show, we didn't eat so well at noon. ”
The two old men did not have much gray hair, nor did they bend their waists, but their complexions were dark and they were obviously old.
"It's okay, it's okay, we're like this every day." Wang Fang waved his hand and said.
As soon as he came out of the commissary, Zhang Lei said again: "Xiao Wang, I want to drink beer." ”
"Go back and rest, we're used to it, you're different, don't get tired."
The electric three-wheeled car drove slowly, and Li Yi said to the camera in the rearview mirror with a regretful face:
"I'm really going to eat this little pudding, otherwise I'd be lying in bed and sleeping with the air conditioner blowing."
A few people sat down on the wooden sofa with tea, and saw that the old man was a little restrained, as if he felt that he was not considerate, so Zhang Lei and Lin Dan picked a topic to chat.
Lin Dan and Wang Huaizhong are both getting older, and they also changed their words.
Although Li Yi is very resistant, he is really tired from harvesting rice, and now he just wants to go back to take a shower and lie down to rest for a while.
However, Liu Fugui and Wang Fang are obviously honest people, they really don't want to go, and they are not even in a hurry to start working, seeing that the persuasion has no effect, they began to push Li Yi and them to get in the car and go back.
At this time, Liu Fugui took out the money in a plastic bag from his trouser pocket, and without much hesitation, he took out one of the few hundred yuan in it and walked to the nearest photographer.
Wang Huaizhong reluctantly walked into the commissary and bought a small pudding by himself.
Li Yi looked out and found Liu Fugui standing at the gate of the courtyard with a vegetable basket.
But it can't be helped, and if they have to choose, they don't want to do it.
After eating lunch and helping to clean up the things, Li Yi and the others planned to go back to the mushroom house to rest first, and then go to the field to help.
This is true, in the mushroom house, it is good to have a meat dish at noon, how can it be so rich.
There was a harvester working in the rice field in the distance, and although the little boy spoke in dialect, the direction of his finger also made Li Yi and the others understand what he meant.
"Our family only has two or three acres of land, and we don't need a harvester." Liu Fugui smiled and asked his grandson to go back to play under the parasol.
The speed of the car was slow, there was no wind, and Li Yi could naturally hear Li Yi's words clearly, and the rest of the people were stunned for a moment, they all had the same idea in their hearts, but they didn't expect Li Yi to even dare to say this.
Wang Huaizhong couldn't wait to smash the little pudding on their faces, although it was for the effect of the show, but the suffocation in his heart was a lot.
Without any more nonsense, Li Yi silently took the sickle from the car pocket, walked to the rice field, bent down, grabbed the rice stalk with his left hand, and slashed the root with the sickle in his right hand, and the whole handful of rice fell into his hand and put it aside.
At this time, Liu Fugui's grandson ran over, grabbed Liu Fugui's mud-stained trouser leg, and said in a milky voice: "Grandpa, can we let that machine come over." ”
This scene hit Li Yi's heart like a lightning strike, making him unable to return to his senses for a long time.
In fact, if it weren't for Li Yi and a few others, they would all come back to eat at this point, rest for a little and a half an hour and continue to work in the fields.
It took another half an hour to finally load all the millet and install the electric three-wheeler.
The rest of the people also came up to dissuade them.
Wang Huaizhong can also afford to play, although he is very reluctant, he still dragged his tired body out of the living room and into the kitchen.
The old man was very tough, obviously not polite, he had to kill this chicken, and a few people could only agree first.
Lin Dan sighed, in fact, he was also making up for Li Yi: "We didn't really live in the countryside before, so we don't have to pay so much attention to the work in the field." ”
Back at the mushroom house, the group took off their straw hats and sleeves, and everyone's faces were red, as if there was steaming hot.
On the way back to the mushroom house, I passed by the door of Liu Fugui's house, and happened to see them wearing straw hat sleeves again, and the little boy also held an umbrella and sat on a tricycle.
Although he didn't say the praise like Lin Dan, his satisfied look and the look in his eyes as he ate the bowl and looked at the table made the two old men feel more at ease.
I don't blame them, these two people are fifty-three, one is fifty-one, and one morning is grandpa long and grandma is short, which is inevitably a little unacceptable.
Li Yi hurriedly got up and walked out: "Let's just eat something at noon, no need to kill chickens." ”
Li Yi didn't change his words, he always felt a little inferior when he called his brother and sister, and he seemed disrespectful to others, after all, people are indeed grandparents, although they didn't change their words, they seemed to be taken advantage of by Zhang Lei and the others.
He said, "Then kill again tonight, and you will come back to dinner tonight." ”
"You're welcome."
The old man's words made Zhang Lei feel a little more at ease, he was always older than him, he was silent for a while, and opened his mouth and said: "I'm in August, it seems that I have to change my words, I call you Lao Liu, I call you Ah Fang!" ”
They knew that it was normal for peasants to look a little old in the sun, rain, wind and rain, but the two old men in their 60s or even 70s were in their fifties, which was completely unexpected.
It is said that there are no good dishes to greet, but at noon, there are fish and meat, fried shrimp with garlic, fried vegetables with tempeh, stir-fried pork with sauerkraut and miscellaneous fish soup.
So they persuaded them to rest until three o'clock and then go together.
He stumbled and begged in a very strong accent and non-standard Mandarin: "Please drink water, can you not shoot it?" ”
The scorching sun scorched the earth, and his head didn't dare to look up, to be honest, Wang Huaizhong wanted the program team to pay for this piece of rice.
"There's nothing good to greet you at home."
Fang just complained in the car, of course he couldn't say it at this time, and Li Yi and the others picked up good things to say.
Zhang Lei asked again: "What month are you?" ”
The interior of the house was paved with white walls, but not painted, and the walls were not very flat, but the floor was tiled.
To be honest, this way of working is very irresponsible to the body, so they are in the prime of life, but they are obviously old, like old men and old ladies.
"I really don't need to, I don't have much appetite at noon on a hot day, just eat some casually."
With a simple smile on his face, the old man turned his head and asked his wife in the kitchen if the hot water had been boiled.
Li Yi and the others could understand Liu Fugui's thoughts, so they didn't mention it, and now they don't know what happened.
"You're too early, hurry up and cook." Li Yi sneered.
Li Yi honked his horn and shouted, "Grandparents, the sun is so shining, are you going to cut the rice now?" ”
It was getting late, and the smell of stir-fried food wafted out of the kitchen, and suddenly there were a few cries of blessing.
Zhang Lei exclaimed, Lin Dan's eyes also widened, and he immediately looked at the camera next to him at a loss.
It wasn't until after five o'clock in the afternoon that the sun finally stopped being so fierce and the light became softer.
Wang Huaizhong came back a little relieved, and said softly: "Then you are too early to rejoice!" ”
Although this is hurting each other, Wang Huaizhong always feels that he is in a loss.
"No, no, just sit and wait a while, and I'll help."
And working in the fields at this time is not only hard, but also very likely to suffer from heat stroke.
Under the stalemate, Li Yi had no choice but to point to the follow-up next to him, as if pleading: "We really can't go, the camera has been filmed, and we will be scolded by the audience when we go back." ”
What can Li Yi's mood say, to be honest, he regretted a little bit that he didn't go back to the mushroom house directly and eat a fart pudding.
When they arrived in the field, Liu Fugui and Wang Fang also wanted to persuade Li Yi and the others to go back.
The money was not stuffed successfully, and no one stopped them, so Liu Fugui and Wang Fang had to speed up the progress, finish their work early, and let these stars go back to rest early.
Although it is not too heavy a burden to kill their own chickens in the countryside to eat, the economic conditions of the old people's families are obviously not good, and they are embarrassed.
Even Lin Dan said: "We are really glad that this is the last time to record." ”
Even Li Yi, a young man in his twenties, felt a little embarrassed to call someone in his fifties grandparents.
didn't need Li Yi to speak, Zhang Lei said: "Don't, I want you to do it, hurry up, four dishes and one soup, don't think about perfunctory, otherwise you will look good." ”
Lin Dan fully exerted his emotional value, and praised every dish he tasted.
Drinks are nothing, this is going to be stopped.
"I just want to drink what I bought at the commissary!"
"Huh?"
Perhaps it was Sun Tzu's words that made Liu Fugui and Wang Fang's attitude more resolute, and they began to push Li Yi and them on the tricycle very hard, like the scene of parents and relatives stuffing red envelopes around during the New Year.
Although the old man's Mandarin accent is very strong, he can barely communicate.
Wang Huaizhong didn't respond, just looked like he was loveless.
The rest of the people are also bored, you are like this, we are even more embarrassed to leave!
Under persuasion, the old man finally nodded, but did not let go of the chicken in his hand, but put it into the chicken cage.
This is the case during the busy farming period, taking advantage of the recent good weather to quickly harvest and dry, and when it rains in a few days, the millet will be moldy and sprout.
The old man noticed it, stopped Wang Huaizhong, and before getting up and walking out, he took out the money wrapped in duct tape from the pocket behind his pants, first took out ten yuan, thought about it and took out ten more yuan, handed it to his grandson, and instructed: "Go to the shop and buy a bottle of Coke and a bottle of orange juice and come back." ”
"The mushroom house has it!"
"Look, it's all your doing!" Zhang Lei turned his head angrily and glared at Wang Huaizhong in the car pocket behind him.
At this time, it is early in the afternoon, which is the time of day when the sun is at its most vicious.
Liu Fugui and Wang Fang nodded hesitantly, they didn't expect Li Yi and the others to go back yet.
"yes, I just want to go back and lie down now."
Wang Huaizhong obviously didn't know, the reason why he found their house was because the staff saw that they were so old and had to work in the fields, the original intention was to pass on positive energy, but they didn't expect that there would be unexpected program effects.
Li Yi elbowed Wang Huaizhong, who also didn't talk about the family, raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you doing sitting here, go and help cook!" ”
Li Yi and a few people helped transport the millet back, and they resolutely refused to eat dinner, they were really tired enough, and now they just want to go back and lie down and blow the air conditioner.
The rice had been cut and the grain had been taken off, and the group took plastic bags to put the grain away.
Liu Fugui didn't explain, but just stuffed the vegetable basket to Li Yi and left a sentence: "You eat while it's hot." ”
Looking at the back of Liu Fugui leaving, Li Yi shook his head and opened the vegetable basket, only to see that there was a whole white-cut chicken inside, and it was still exuding heat.
