It's hot, and the ground dries up in a short time. It's rare to see a cement floor so white.

Behind the persimmon tree is the utility room built by the Xu family. The one on the left is used to store things, including the bamboo that was cut before and some dirty farm tools. They are all neatly stored here. On the right is the earthen stove that has never been used since it was built. Xu Fuqiang went to sweep the dust and clean it up.

Even the tractor quietly placed next to the utility room was washed.

The tricycle and the little white car that had been washed and polished at home were also parked here, leaving space for the program crew to shoot.

Xu Qingzhi got up as usual and had breakfast.

Xu Fuqiang and Wang Yanmei had been busy for three hours, and asked uncertainly: "Qingzhi, when will the production crew come?"

Xu Qingzhi held the salted duck egg in one hand and turned on the live broadcast on his mobile phone with the other hand. He took a look and said, "On the way."

She sent another message to Weiwei, asking, "How long will it take?"

Weiwei: "Half an hour, we have already entered Meicheng."

Xu Qingzhi remembered the program team's request and said to her parents, "Starting tomorrow, Aunt Zhou, Lian Nan, and Aunt Ma will have a day off. These tasks will be left to the program team's guests."

The "Let's Go" production crew was really generous and thoughtful. They provided free labor, paid for her accommodation and meals, and also helped her show compassion to the employees.

Xia Liannan, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Ma, who came to feed the chickens and ducks and prepare pig food today, suddenly got the news that they could go home after they finished their work and would have four consecutive days off.

"Yanmei, why do you suddenly have such a long vacation?" Aunt Zhou asked.

Aunt Ma also said, "Yes, it's so sudden, I'm still a little uncomfortable. Those pigs like to eat the food I feed them. I'm not used to not seeing them for four consecutive days. "

Xia Liannan would also check the trending searches and knew what was going on. She said, "Is it because of the recording of that program? They need to control so that not too many people can get close."

"No, I mean to leave these jobs for them. You can take a few more days off. The vegetables from the back mountain are about to be sold. When you come back to work, you will probably be busier than usual." Wang Yanmei said.

"What's so busy about this? Now I just have to collect food for chickens, ducks and pigs, and water the vegetables regularly. I still think it's too easy." Aunt Ma said.

But having a holiday is definitely easier than working, so the three of them went back after finishing the work at hand.

At the same time, the program crew stopped the car at the entrance to the village.

The guests who were chatting also stopped their awkward conversation.

Wen Hao looked outside and asked, "Is this the time?"

PD Liu said off-screen with a loudspeaker in his hand: "Welcome everyone to Taoshui Village. Next, please hand in your wallet and other items other than daily necessities, such as snacks. Guests are not allowed to use their own money on the show. They can only use the funds provided by the program team."

A staff member walked up to the guests carrying a transparent plastic storage box.

Song Feizhou said: "I didn't bring my wallet. I think everyone uses their mobile phones now."

"Me neither." Xia Weiwei shook her head.

Wen Hao: "I don't think I have any either..."

PD Liu smiled and said, "Our program team will check everyone's stuff at the end, so if you brought any, please cooperate and hand them in."

Wen Hao took out his wallet from his pocket and put it in.

Zhao Zhengchu took out a bunch of snacks and filled up a box, and the program crew took out a new box.

【Baby Zheng Zheng took out the shrimp strips, they were really delicious. 】

[Ahh, the look in Zhengzheng's eyes when he saw the snacks was so heartbreaking. The production crew is such a rude person, knowing clearly that Zhengzheng in my family has the habit of eating snacks.]

Xia Weiwei knew the program crew's plan from a young age, so she had a full meal early in the morning and didn't bring anything with her.

Song Feizhou knew nothing and only prepared some spare clothes and a cell phone and ID.

After collecting the things, PD Liu continued, "This time we will spend five days and four nights together in Taoshui Village, but unfortunately, the program team has limited funds, so the guests need to find accommodation by themselves. The mysterious guest has already gone to find a house before you, so everyone, hurry up and move."

The car door opened.

Wen Hao: "Didn't you say that we can only use the funds provided by the program team? You haven't given us the money yet."

"Yes, but now you are asked to find a place to stay for free." The unruly PD Liu said very calmly.

Wen Hao's pupils were startled, and he muttered: "This is the first time I have done such a shameless thing. Thank you to the "Let's Go" program team."

There are a lot of them on the barrage.

【Ha ha ha ha……】

[The first person who dares to confront the program team, daddy, awesome. 】

This name comes from the character in Wen Hao's last movie, which has a line, "Open the door, I'm daddy."

So fans followed suit and started calling Wen Hao daddy.

When the four guests got out of the car, the live broadcast had more shots of each guest. The audience could freely choose which guest to watch, and only the main shot was switched under the control of the director.

Song Feizhou was young and strong. He ran with his bag on his back and finally found a family with an old lady.

He bowed politely, leaned forward and said, "Hello, grandma. I am Song Feizhou."

The elderly woman had a head full of silver hair and wore a black plastic headband to hold the loose hair in her eyes. She was sitting on a chair tying her insoles. She had a big smile on her face, but she was a little hard of hearing. "Ah? What did you say? Young man, speak louder."

"Hello grandma, I'm Song Feizhou. My next question may be a bit presumptuous. Can I stay at your house for a few days?" Song Feizhou's voice was originally uneasy and nervous, so he had to amplify it so that his grandma could hear it.

"Plums? What plums? You want to buy plums and pigs?" The old lady waved her hands. "We don't raise pigs at home. We can't afford it. Pigs consume food. We don't have plums either. I haven't heard of anyone growing this stuff in the surrounding area."

When the old lady saw the person following the camera, she knew it was the celebrity that the village had notified yesterday to come record a program and appear on TV. She shouted to the camera, "Xiu Mei, it's me. Are you doing well in the state capital? An old lady like me is going to appear on TV."

She even waved at the camera, "Xiu Mei, can you see me?"

When Song Feizhou saw his grandmother greeting the camera, he suddenly remembered his grandmother who passed away a few years ago, "Grandma, do you want to talk to your family?"

"Yes, grandma, just say whatever you want to say to it. Your family will see it." Song Feizhou said patiently.

There were only a few fans of Song Feizhou in the live broadcast room, which already had few viewers.

[Zhou Zhou, have you forgotten that you are in a hurry to find a place to live?]

[Zhou Zhou, who has a beautiful voice and a kind heart, probably thought of his own grandmother. ]

The old lady here is still talking to the camera: "Xiumei, I am living well at home alone. I sold the rice I planted for 10,000 yuan. You don't have to worry. You work in the state capital, so you must take care of your health."

Song Feizhou asked: "Grandma, don't you have a cell phone?"

"I'm too old to use a cell phone. I have to borrow the cell phone from the family across the street to make calls. My daughter hasn't been home for three years and I miss her so much. She can see your program and know that I'm doing well here. Just don't let her worry." The old lady smiled, then stood up and took out a few oranges from the house and gave them to Song Feizhou and several staff members. "Here, take them and eat them. I grow them myself in my house. They're very sweet."

Song Feizhou took the orange and took out his cell phone from his pocket. "Grandma, do you remember the phone number? I'll call you."

The old lady nodded and said happily: "I remember."

Then the old voice said without hesitation: "1382539XXXX."

The program team deliberately did not include the sound of the last four digits of the number, so only the first digits could be heard in the live broadcast room.

Song Feizhou dialed the number, but it took a long time before someone answered the phone.

"Hello."

When the old lady heard someone answering the phone, her eyes lit up and she shouted at the top of her voice: "Xiu Mei, is that you?"

The person on the other end was a little impatient: "Grandma, I've said it many times, I'm not Xiumei, I just changed this number a year ago."

Then the call was hung up.

【What's going on? 】

【Did the old lady remember the wrong phone number? 】

The old lady lowered her eyes and muttered to herself: "If this isn't Xiumei, then who could it be? This is Xiumei's phone number."

Song Feizhou comforted her: "Grandma, maybe she changed her phone number."

"Then wait until the New Year, when Xiumei comes back, I'll ask her what number she changed to. Thank you, young man," the old lady said gratefully.

"It's okay, grandma, just continue with your work." Song Feizhou remembered the task given by the program team, and knew that this place he was staying at was not a good choice, so he hurried to find the next one.

Fortunately, there are still a few companies in this area.

He went to knock on the iron door of another house not far away.

There was a barking sound from inside, and a middle-aged man opened the iron door a crack from inside and glanced at him: "Who are you?"

"Hello, I'm Song Feizhou." Song Feizhou introduced himself first, and then said: "I'm recording a variety show and need to find a place to stay for a few days. I just came from that grandma's house. Well, I just want to ask if it's convenient for me to stay at your house..."

The middle-aged man waved his hands and said, "I'm sorry, there are elderly people and children at home, and my wife just gave birth and is in confinement."

Song Feizhou smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you brother."

"By the way, brother, do you know what's going on with Xiumei at that grandma's house over there? I heard from grandma that she hasn't been back for a few years, and I couldn't get through to her on the phone just now."

He remembered that the old lady was talking about using the cell phone she borrowed from this family to make a call.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he knew that the old lady was probably thinking about her daughter again. He sighed and said, "Her daughter died in a car accident while working in the state capital a few years ago. The children in the family were afraid that she was too old and couldn't bear the blow, so they kept it a secret from her and lied to her that Xiumei was still working in the state capital."

Song Feizhou didn't expect this result. He was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay, thank you."

He turned and left, and saw smoke rising from the small house next to the old lady's house. The dark green smoke extended upwards and finally disappeared into the boundless sky.

He went to a small store and brought a bag of rice and a barrel of oil to deliver.

He couldn't do anything, but it seemed impossible for him to do nothing after knowing the result.

A barrel of oil and a bag of rice.

He told the old woman, "Grandma, thank you for the sweet oranges you gave me. Please take the oil and rice."

The old lady refused to take it, so Song Feizhou put down his things and ran away.

"Young man, have a meal before you leave." The old lady looked at his back and kept shouting from behind him. She chased him for a few steps but couldn't catch up with him.

The stove in the house was still burning, and the old woman was making lunch. Boiled tofu was her daily meal.

Tears were already streaming down the live broadcast screen.

[Damn, my eyes are dripping with pearls.]

[My eyes are about to pee~]

【Turn on the cold and hot water at the same time. 】

[I cried too, thinking of my own grandmother. My family and relatives live in the city, and she would not come over when I asked her to, insisting on staying alone in the countryside. She also couldn't even make a phone call, and would always go to the village party secretary to call us.]

[Why do you want to hide this from the old man? Won't it be even more painful when he finds out the truth? ]

[The old man's health is very poor and he can't bear this kind of blow. My cousin also died in a car accident. I didn't tell her mother at the time because I was afraid she couldn't bear it. I'm still hiding it now.]

[In fact, this kind of thing can't be hidden at all. Grandma should have guessed it. ]

[Yes, this is definitely guessable. But her family is lying to her, so she just pretends not to know. She has a little hope in her heart that her daughter may still be alive.]
