Netizens also mocked them for not being able to do any hard or tiring work, and for shirking their responsibilities and lacking professional ethics when something went wrong.

In short, their reputation has plummeted online because of this incident.

Netizens even gave them the nickname "the shit-eating couple," and this nickname even became a trending topic.

Xu Miaotong and Gao Li were both extremely angry, which is why they discussed and staged this scene.

How much netizens believe is none of their business.

In any case, they have to do something; they can't just sit idly by and let netizens laugh at them.

Only their die-hard fans continued to support them in the live chat, while the other guests at the scene and the other viewers in the live stream ignored their performance.

After the two finished their performance, Director Jiang asked the homeowners to score the performances of each group of guests.

A perfect score is 10.

Guo Zhuyan's family received eight points and a cash reward of 15 yuan.

The Zhuo Ranjun family and the Feng Wenhe family both received six points and were awarded a cash prize of 8 yuan each.

Grandpa Zhou gave Qin Yuanyao and her friends a perfect score of 10, and they received a cash reward of 20 yuan.

When it came to Xu Miaotong's group, Li Qiaohui gave her a zero without hesitation and even complained.

“I know you city folks aren’t used to doing work like carrying manure and fertilizing, but you should at least have a work ethic. It’s such a small plot of land, and you’ve been working for so long, and not only did you not finish, you also spilled the manure. And when you spilled it, you didn’t even show any remorse; you just left fuming, as if I asked you to spill the manure. In the end, I had to clean it up myself and finish fertilizing the rest of the land myself.”

"You might still think to yourselves that I'm deliberately targeting you by making you carry manure and fertilize the land. Hey, I really wasn't targeting you in this matter. You can go ask around the village; carrying manure and fertilizing the land is something I do all the time. The tasks you're experiencing are just part of my daily life!"

Li Qiaohui's rapid-fire words left Xu Miaotong and Gao Li blushing and turning red, extremely embarrassed.

Even if they harbor a thousand grievances in their hearts, they still have to put on a smile and apologize.

“It’s true that we didn’t do a good job. We’ve never done farm work like this before, which is why we messed it up. We will reflect on our mistakes,” Gao Li said.

"We were all terrified. It suddenly spilled, and our minds went blank. Our first reaction was to take a shower and change our clothes. We didn't think things through, and we'll correct that," Xu Miaotong said, lowering her eyes in apology.

Li Qiaohui showed no expression and did not say anything more.

Director Jiang said a few words to smooth things over, and then moved on to the next segment.

"Besides the scoring rewards we just discussed, there's also a performance reward," Director Jiang said mysteriously. "Each child will perform a show for the homeowner of their house, and the homeowner will reward them with an ingredient based on how much they like the show. For families with limited assets, this ingredient reward is quite generous and can save them a lot of money."

"Which child would like to perform first?" Director Jiang asked, scanning the children's faces.

Feng Xuan and Ge Ling simultaneously raised their hands enthusiastically, "Me—"

Amidst their loud voices, a timid male voice murmured, "I...I also..."

When Gao Hao saw that Feng Xuan and Ge Ling were both eager to be the first to perform, all the courage he had finally mustered vanished, and he couldn't finish what he was going to say.

Director Jiang noticed Gao Hao's hesitant and timid appearance and asked, "Hao Hao, do you want to perform?"

Gao Hao, whose name was called, blushed and nodded silently.

“Okay. Then you can perform for Aunt Li first,” Director Jiang said.

Feng Xuan was indignant and shouted, "I was the first to raise my hand, why can't I perform first?"

Ge Lingzheng said, "I was the first to raise my hand, so I should be the first to perform!"

Guo Yicong and Chi Naoqi watched quietly without saying a word.

“It doesn’t matter who performs first, what’s there to argue about?” Feng Wenhe lectured Feng Xuan.

“Haohao is the younger brother, and you are the older sister, so let Haohao perform first,” Zhuo Ranjun said to Ge Ling.

Both of them, as adults, understood why Director Jiang had Gao Hao perform first.

Just now, Li Qiaohui gave Xu Miaotong and Gao Li a long lecture. Now that Gao Hao is willing to perform first, Director Jiang will naturally think that this will be a highlight. The viewers in the live broadcast room will be very interested to see what Li Qiaohui's attitude is towards Gao Hao's performance.

After the two adults said that, Feng Xuan and Ge Ling reluctantly shut up.

"Haohao, what kind of performance are you going to give Aunt Li?" Director Jiang asked Gao Hao kindly.

Gao Hao blushed and said, "I...I don't have any special talents, but can I recite a poem for my aunt?"

Aunt Li nodded expressionlessly. "Memorize it."

Gao Hao took a deep breath and then timidly spoke.

"Sow a single grain of millet in spring, reap ten thousand grains in autumn. There is no idle land under heaven, yet farmers still starve to death. Hoeing the fields at noon, sweat drips onto the soil. Who knows that every grain in the bowl is the result of hard work?"

After reciting the poems, Gao Hao said, "These two poems about sympathizing with the farmers were taught to me by my parents. They taught me that farmers work very hard to grow food, and we should cherish food and not waste it."

After Gao Hao finished speaking, he looked at Li Qiaohui nervously and timidly.

The reason he was the first to stand up and recite the poem was that he hoped Aunt Li could forgive his parents and stop blaming them.

His parents didn't do it on purpose; they are good people.

He chose to recite the poem about sympathizing with the farmers because he thought Aunt Li would like it.

Aunt Li is a farmer, and the poem "Sympathy for Farmers" is meant to teach everyone to cherish the food that farmers grow. So Aunt Li should like to hear this kind of poem, right?

A smile finally appeared on Li Qiaohui's expressionless face. "Not bad, very good. I'll give you a few big crucian carp later."

Gao Hao breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "Thank you, Aunt Li."

He turned his head excitedly to look at Xu Miaotong and Gao Li.

Xu Miaotong and Gao Li were still feeling embarrassed by being scolded by Li Qiaohui, and their moods were not very high. They forced out a few smiles and patted Gao Hao's head.

Gao Hao is so thoughtful; his choice of poems about sympathizing with farmers clearly has meaning.

[His parents looked down on the farm work arranged by Aunt Li, but he immediately recited a poem about pity for the farmers, saying that his parents taught him that farmers work very hard. Isn't this a veiled way of saying that his parents didn't look down on Aunt Li or the farm work she arranged, and that his parents understood Aunt Li's hard work?]

Sigh, Gao Hao is such a good kid, it's just a shame he ended up with parents like these.

[This is ridiculous! What do you mean by having parents like this? Tongtong and Li Ge already apologized very sincerely! They both said it was their first time doing it that way, and they didn't do it on purpose! Why are you still bringing this up?]
