Chapter 286: Official Announcement
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
[Actually, not considering the previous episodes, from the looks of it now, Qi Yan and Lu Jinsen look like a couple. This scene with the two of them in the same frame really gives off the aura of a wealthy family-]
[Hahaha, the aura of a wealthy family. Sister in front, what an apt description.]
After delegating their work, Meng Chuyuan and Liao Jiayan went to look for lunch ingredients.
Meng Chuyuan observed the surrounding environment. The cultivation area here was quite large. She believed that there should be a lot of vegetables here.
Once they were nearing the village, the two of them saw a huge vegetable garden along the way.
When Liao Jiayan passed by the garden, she couldn’t help but take a few more glances at it. Then, she exclaimed, “I didn’t expect there to be such a big vegetable field here. I didn’t even notice it when I came… Oh my god, there are so many types of vegetables here.”
Meng Chuyuan said, “Because we didn’t take this path when we came.”
“Oh-oh.”
Seeing that there were still many people picking vegetables in the vegetable field, Meng Chuyuan took the initiative to ask a local villager, “Hello, Auntie.
We’re here to camp. We want to ask if you can sell us some vegetables?”
The auntie was wearing a straw hat on her head, and the sun shone on the edge of her hat. When she looked up, the mottled light highlighted a side of her face. She pointed at the erected sign at the entrance with a gentle smile in her eyes. “Sister, we have harvesting activities here that you can experience. It includes immediate purchase of the freshly harvested produce. You can go over there to find out more about the activities. All the vegetables are organic, so you can eat them without concern.”
Meng Chuyuan: “Okay, thank you, Auntie.”
Their harvesting garden was specially set up for foreign tourists. There were many vegetables and fruits planted in it.
Meng Chuyuan and Liao Jiayan entered the picking garden. They each carried a vegetable basket and shuttled through the greenhouse.
When they entered the warm greenhouse, an entire row of mouth-watering plump tomatoes were on the planting rack. There were also sweet peppers planted beside them. Every one of them was huge and plump, making people unable to take their eyes off them.
“So cheap!!” Liao Jiayan stood in front of the plaque for the planted tomatoes. It contained information on the varieties and the price of picking them. After reading it, she revealed an expression of disbelief.
When Meng Chuyuan heard Liao Jiayan’s exclamation, she also came over curiously to take a look.
When Meng Chuyuan saw the price marked on the plaque, it was as if she was frozen in frame.
Seeing the two of them standing there without any further communication, the cameraman sensibly stepped forward and zoomed in to the plaque beside them.
[What? Let me see-]
[Ah?!! Isn’t this the normal price? It’s slightly cheaper than what we sell here, but it’s still not bad… Liao Jiayan, did you have to act so exaggeratedly?]
[Sister Meng, who is such a rich lady, doesn’t even have such a big reaction when she sees something that costs a few yuan. I really don’t know why this Liao is putting on such an act / sweating emoji .]
[Am I the only one who realized that ever since Liao Jiayan teamed up with Sister Meng, she seems to have become much more lively. Even her screen time has increased.]
The two of them were silent for a while. In the end, Liao Jiayan took the initiative to break the silence. “Let’s pick some of these and some of the sweet peppers back.”
“Then you can pick them here. I’ll go over there to pluck a few radishes and take a look at the other produce.”
“Okay.”
At this moment, the few guests who were still setting up their tents at the campsite gradually managed to prop up their tents.
Xu Huaning was already nailing their tents to the ground, and Qi Zhen had successfully set up the small tent by himself.
Due to Lu Jinsen and Qi Yan’s initial experience, they did not seem so unfamiliar with it this time. There were also no disputes during the construction process.
Seeing that Qi Yan had picked up the hammer and tent nails, Lu Jinsen subconsciously reminded her, “Sister Yan, be careful of your hands when you’re nailing them into the ground.”
Qi Yan was squatting on the ground, looking for a suitable spot to peg the tent into the land. Before she hit the nail, she even cautiously asked Lu Jinsen, “I’ll have to hit this 45 degrees into the ground, right?”
“That’s right.”
Qi Yan adjusted the tent peg to 450. She held the lower end with one hand and raised the hammer with the other to hit the tent peg. Soon, she was done.
Qi Zhen set up his tent and saw that the three girls in the team had also set up their tent.
His gaze also lingered on Qi Yan. Seeing that she was getting along quite well with Lu Jinsen, his eyes dimmed and he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.
This was because he had never experienced such a happy and harmonious moment with Qi Yan.
As such, the person that Qi Yan hated was never her so-called “little brother”. She just hated “him”.
Seeing that Xu Huaning didn’t need any help, he consciously offered to look for ingredients and handed the remaining errands in the base to them to complete.
“Sisters, I’ll go find the ingredients. I’ll leave the matters here to you.” Xu Huaning replied, “Okay, go ahead. I’ll wait for you to come back.” [I really didn’t expect Qi Yan to be so capable.]
[Who said that Missy doesn’t know how to work? Look at Qi Yan. She’s so self-aware, hahaha.]
[When Brother Qi Zhen looked at Qi Yan just now, he looked like a male protagonist who was walking out of a tragedy.]
[It’s normal. The siblings had a conflict, it’s expected that he feels uncomfortable seeing such a scene. It feels like his sister has been snatched away.]
The director sat in front of the monitor and saw that they were setting up the tent quite quickly. He didn’t need to rush them on their remaining progress.
At this moment, the assistant director came over to report to the director about the broadcasting of the variety show. “Director, our variety show has already been approved. Coincidentally, there’s been free time slots on the platform recently. The broadcasting time of the variety show can either be at eight o’clock at night or ten o’clock at night. Take a look at which time is suitable and I’ll communicate it to the platform.”
Director Luo got the two broadcast timings from the assistant director and asked, “Which episode are we editing now?” Assistant director: “We are currently editing the fourth episode.”
“Then choose the Friday to Sunday 8 p.m slot.”
“Are you sure? Friday is the day after tomorrow. Once we confirm the broadcast timing, it’ll be officially announced today.”
The director nodded affirmatively. “That’s right. It’s almost winter break. If we start the broadcast now, we can attract a wave of online traffic from students.
This was not only because of the winter break. At the same time, the director also wanted to see the outcome of the variety show as soon as possible. This way, even after the end of the second season, the show could still maintain its popularity. If the response was good, he could start preparing for the third season after the new year.
Assistant director: “Alright, I’ll get it done now.”
Qi Zhen walked from the base to the village. Under the guidance of the villagers, he quickly arrived at the vegetable garden.
“Sister Meng, Sister Yan Yan, you’re here too.”
When Qi Zhen came in, Meng Chuyuan and Liao Jiayan’s baskets were already full of vegetables.
“Yes, we’re preparing to go back.” Meng Chuyuan saw that he was alone and asked curiously, “Did you come alone?”
“Yes.” Qi Zhen nodded and smiled bitterly.
Meng Chuyuan sensed that his mood was a little unusual, but she could not tell what was wrong..
