In June, fish frolic among the lotus leaves; in August, lotus roots are dug from the mud.
Lotus roots are ready to eat at this time of year, and the guests were sent to the muddy field early in the morning by the production crew.
"Damn it! I can't move!" Yan Qing shook off the mud from his body and struggled forward through the mud, but it seemed that he hadn't lifted his feet at all!
Xie Tingsi was in the same situation, but he was happy to be a teacher: "Lift your legs up and walk, like I do, it should... Holy crap!"
Xie Tingsi was trying to host a church banquet, but as soon as he put his foot down, he slipped and performed a split in the water in front of everyone.
[Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter!]
[His wife fell too! Shouldn't dating reality shows present the best side of their characters cleanly and honestly? Our Director Zhou deliberately did the opposite—the uglier the better!]
Are you guys still watching this like a dating show? I'm just watching it to admire the good looks (and enjoy the gossip).
[I wonder how many couples will end up together. If any couple does, I'll eat the keyboard while doing a handstand!]
Yu Qiuchi was right next to Xie Tingsi when Xie Tingsi suddenly split his right leg forward, causing Yu Qiuchi to slide and fall to the side!
The lotus leaf in Yu Qiuchi's hand flew out and hit Tang Ke, who was completely unaware of what was happening, on the back.
"Are you guys fighting the Mud Monster?" Tang Ke was walking in front when he felt something hit his back. He looked back and saw two people who had fallen down.
Yu Qiuchi struggled to stand up from the mud. His clothes were completely unrecognizable, and he was covered in mud.
"Now you can call me Mud Cat, the ones from the previous two days don't count, hahaha." Tang Ke's fox-like eyes narrowed with laughter. Even though he was in the mud pit, it didn't stop Yu Qiuchi from thinking he was handsome.
Humans are visual creatures, and Yu Qiuchi couldn't help but take a second look.
Xie Tingsi was pulled out of the mud by Gu Xiaojun. He was in real pain and tried his best to control his expression to hold it in, but he really couldn't help it and was wincing in pain.
Gu Xiaojun was wearing a white tank top today, and his biceps were unusually prominent when he pulled Xie Tingsi out of the mud.
Are you alright?
"No... ouch... let me catch my breath." Xie Tingsi leaned against Gu Xiaojun's biceps. He tried to move his legs to catch his breath. His flexibility wasn't very good. He had just split all the way down, and now his hip hurt.
Xie Tingsi patted Gu Xiaojun's muscles: "Brother Junxiao, you've worked out to build those muscles for nothing."
[Those muscles, male mom!]
[Honey, front view...me!]
[I only regret that I'm just a weak woman, lacking something in my body, unable to satisfy my wives! (licking the screen)]
The temperature wasn't that low today, and everyone struggling in the mud was drenched in sweat.
Especially Gu Xiaojun, whose arm muscles were glistening with sweat, making her look exceptionally sexy.
"What happened?" Jiang Chenzhou was really confused. He was carrying the bucket and walking ahead when he suddenly realized that there was no one behind him.
"Brother Si fell, taking Qiu Chi with him!" Yan Qing loudly reported the news.
Everyone in the lotus pond heard it and turned their gazes to it. This showed that Xie Tingsi had no face at all!
Song Yaozhuo, who was buried in the lotus leaves, keenly spotted the three characters "Yu Qiuchi". He cleared a path through the surrounding lotus leaves and saw Yu Qiuchi standing there covered in mud.
Song Yaozhuo frowned. He walked to Yu Qiuchi's side and pulled him away from Xie Tingsi: "If you can't walk, follow me."
Xie Tingsi was like a silly husky, and Song Yaozhuo was a little worried about Yu Qiuchi following him.
[Is our sweet potato about to make its move? To catch the other guests off guard (secretly)]
[Our boat god and wife are a perfect match!]
[Yan Qing is the best, isn't she!]
[A pairing can be unconventional, but it can't be obscure!]
Song Yaozhuo had previously filmed in a lotus pond. Although he had never dug lotus roots himself, he had heard about it from the people involved and was just short of actually doing it!
He was very experienced in walking in the mud, after all, he had spent three days in the mud carrying his camera.
"Wow, I see lotus root!" Yan Qing bent over and dug in the dark mud for a long time. He seemed to have touched something and pulled it up with all his might.
"Bang"
The object in his hand emerged from the mud as he moved, and Yan Qing, due to inertia, sat down on the ground with a thud, his fair face splattered with mud.
He casually wiped it off with his hand, and the mud spread across his face, getting dirtier and dirtier the more he wiped, until his face was a mess.
Yan Qingchong waved a muddy object in his hand at Yu Qiuchi, and the mud splattered from it landed on Tang Ke's arm.
"Qiuchi, look! I dug one up! Praise me!"
Yu Qiuchi gave Yan Qing, who was seeking praise, a thumbs up: "Amazing!"
But Xie Tingsi remembered the grudge from the shout earlier. Taking advantage of his height, he directly took the lotus root that Yan Qing was waving around and measured it with his own hand: "This seems to be smaller than my hand, a bit short!"
"How could that be! Your hand is too big here. Lotus roots are all this long, I've seen them before!" Yan Qing absolutely refused to admit that her lotus root was small! When it comes to size and length, it's a matter of dignity!
“This one should be broken.” Gu Xiaojun took out a lotus root that Song Yaozhuo had secretly dug out and put it in the bucket to compare. Yan Qing’s was not even one-sixth the size of Song Yaozhuo’s.
"It's not that it should be, it's that it's broken." Gu Xiaojun finally concluded, though he had been conservative in his earlier assessment.
“If it’s broken, the selling price will be lower, and this one won’t sell.” Tang Ke raised an arrogant eyebrow, waved the lotus root he had dug up at Yan Qing, and added insult to injury.
Jiang Chenzhou glanced at the lotus root that Tang Ke had dug out. Its outer skin was covered with scars. His tone remained unchanged, but he bluntly stated, "Even those that are damaged and have been buried in mud will be damaged."
