Chapter 203 Call her out to keep everyone company.
Yan Sui had no patience to find out what Yan Zhendong was up to, and simply carried the vegetables away.
The king is incubating eggs again; this is its third clutch of eggs this year.
Yan Sui suspected that the food they were eating was too nourishing; if they kept incubating, the chicken coop wouldn't be able to hold them all.
She put the greens into the feeding trough and looked at the chickens, big and small. They were all very good-looking, especially when they flew and their tail feathers spread out, just like a real phoenix.
She squatted down to watch and couldn't help but say, "Grandma, I wonder what these chickens taste like. Why don't we raise them a little bigger and kill one to try?"
He had barely finished speaking when he was hit with a powerful dunk.
The old lady treated these chickens like treasures, and couldn't bear to eat them.
"Eat, eat, eat! Why don't you just eat the King and the Queen, and then catch the Diamonds and Spades and roast them later!"
Yan Sui covered her head and muttered, "If you don't want to eat, then don't eat."
Next time, she'll secretly kill one and try it.
Just as they were watching Da Wang and Xiao Wang eat, Yan Shunzhong came over and discussed the variety show with Yan Sui.
The variety show that Yan Mo and Fu Qingci are going to participate in is called "Brilliant Life," which is a slow-paced rural variety show.
The variety show features three celebrity couples and one ordinary couple, who will showcase their lives in Changqing Village for half a month.
Yan Shunzhong was pleased that the variety show was set in Changqing Village, as it was tantamount to promoting the village.
But this publicity campaign isn't for nothing; we still need to cooperate.
The production team needed to arrange accommodations for the guests, so the location naturally had to be chosen in Changqing Village.
"The guests will be staying in separate rooms, which will be decided by drawing lots, so we need to prepare four rooms."
Moreover, the production team required the four rooms to be in different households.
After thinking it over carefully, he concluded that the best house in Changqing Village was probably Yan Sui's.
"Just asking to stay in a room?"
“I asked and agreed to stay in one room, but they want to install cameras in the room.”
However, the production team certainly didn't provide free food and lodging; they paid for everything.
Yan Sui had no objection, since she had plenty of empty rooms in her house anyway.
"What about the other three? Has Uncle chosen them yet?"
Yan Shunzhong was also having a headache. "Your Grandma Zhao's family can provide a room."
Grandma Zhao's family home is also quite nice, second only to Yan Sui's.
The third room was booked at Aunt Ruan's house. The second floor of her house was unrenovated and remained the same as before; it was just an ordinary family's house.
It just so happens that Aunt Ruan's milk tea shop is about to open, so I'll give her some publicity.
Yan Sui exclaimed in surprise, "The conditions are far too different."
Who can argue with that? Yan Shunzhong thought so too, but that's what the production team insisted on.
The last room hadn't been booked yet, but as soon as they heard there was money involved, everyone wanted to vacate their rooms.
Among them, Granny Zhang was the most disruptive.
The director required that the last room must be in a bad state, and Granny Zhang's house actually fit the requirements quite well.
She's a real oddball; she might even become a highlight of the show.
Yan Sui laughed, "Then let's choose Grandma Zhang's house. Anyway, we'll have to sign a contract, so if any problems arise later, it's none of our business."
Granny Zhang is thick-skinned and certainly not afraid of being scolded.
After hearing what she said, Yan Shunzhong finally decided on the room.
In addition, the production team showed him his schedule for the next two weeks.
There are quite a few areas where Yan Sui's cooperation is needed.
For example, Yan Sui's dozen or so acres of corn were ripe and needed to be harvested.
The production team generously agreed to take it all on!
Yan Sui looked bewildered. "Wouldn't it be inappropriate to have these couples of guests come and do the work?"
Yan Shunzhong thought so too; those young ladies and gentlemen were all city people and certainly had never done this before.
But the director said that this show is a slow-paced rural variety show, and they were called in to do chores, so Yan Sui could do whatever she wanted with them.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony!" She still has a lot of work to do.
Yan Shunzhong gave her the staff's contact information, saying, "You can contact them yourself later to develop the program schedule."
He was extremely busy welcoming the production crew.
The production team was filming in Changqing Village, so he had to try his best to present the best version of the village to everyone.
I'm so busy that I'm dizzy from all the repairs and tidying up.
Before we knew it, it was late September, and the production team arrived as scheduled.
They went ahead, and the four pairs of guests would arrive the following day.
Yan Shunzhong first led them to their accommodation, and then took many staff members on a tour of Changqing Village.
The director who was speaking to Yan Shunzhong was surnamed Chen, and everyone called him Director Chen.
Upon hearing Yan Shunzhong invite everyone to his home for dinner that evening, he couldn't help but ask, "Is Yan Sui here?"
Yan Shunzhong said, "My niece is usually very busy and may not have time."
Director Chen smiled and replied, "Secretary Yan can't keep such a beautiful niece hidden away. Let's call her out to keep everyone company."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shunzhong's expression immediately changed.
He had thought this was a director making a proper TV show.
"Accompany you? Why don't you dig up your ancestors and accompany them! The entertainment industry is a mess because of parasites like you! You need someone to accompany you to a meal? Are you an idiot? You think a meal will choke you to death?!"
Director Chen was taken aback by his sudden change of expression and choked, his face turning ashen.
"You! What kind of attitude is this! If it weren't for me, would your Changqing Village have gotten such a great opportunity? Let me tell you, if you can do it, do it; if you can't, our production team can leave anytime!"
"Withdraw! You withdraw now, or your ancestors for eighteen generations are all bastards!" Yan Shunzhong roared, spitting all over his face.
After saying that, he sneered, "Look at me, you son of a bitch, where are your ancestors for eighteen generations? You're the kind of bastard who gave birth to sons without an anus, and your lineage will end with you!"
He spat angrily, then left the group behind and strode away.
Standing behind Director Chen was the camera crew that the program was collaborating with. Seeing him being scolded, everyone kept their eyes down and no one spoke up for him.
It wasn't until Ling Jing, the head of photography coordination, lazily spoke up: "Director Chen, are we still shooting or not? We signed a contract, and if you delay our later schedule, you'll have to pay compensation."
Director Chen was well aware of all this; everyone in the entire production team had signed contracts.
It's not up to him to make the decisions alone.
"Director Chen, Secretary Yan is a bit impatient and speaks without thinking. Everyone, let's disperse and go about our own business."
The person who spoke up to mediate was the head of the production team, whom everyone called Director Li.
He led a group of people who were in charge of logistics.
Director Li had to use a lot of persuasion to appease Director Chen.
Ling Jing curled her lip in disgust. This Director Chen was a scoundrel. He had even hinted to her before that she should have one of her female cameramen accompany him for drinks.
She didn't agree, and he found fault with her for it.
If she remembered correctly, Director Chen and Yan Sui had some past conflicts.
When Yan Sui was being attacked online, one of the rumors was that she had an improper relationship with a certain director.
Why is she so sure it's a rumor? Of course, because this "director" is Director Chen.
How blind must one be to be attracted to this pig-like creature?
After finally managing to appease Director Chen, Director Li still had to go find Yan Shunzhong.
He looked up at the sky, feeling utterly exhausted.
