Chapter 21 Double Kill [Gao Luo had beaten Zhang Tianen before, this is another...
Jun and Ze Yin had the same test scores and were tied for first place. According to the rules, a draw was made to decide the order in which Shen Siyan and Wen Cheng would be chosen.
Shen Siyan took the initiative to show her goodwill and let Wen Cheng choose first. She also gave some advice, saying, "Choose a location first. I think the best locations are the two in town. If you choose the right location, the success rate of sales will increase greatly."
Because they are stars, they are accompanied by cameramen and directors, and their travels are grand and attract many people to watch the fun. The consumption level of urban residents is generally higher than that of villagers, so if you sell to them, they will be more willing to pay.
The final result was that Wen Cheng went to the town's vegetable market to sell tomatoes, Shen Siyan went to the town's restaurant to sell cucumbers, Xue Chen went to the village store to sell watermelons, Bian Yuan pushed a cart to sell cantaloupe, and Feng Daiyue sold purple eggplants in the east of the village.
After the other groups had finished choosing, the item left for Gao Luo and Gao Shule was pomegranate flowers, which were sold in Xiangxi.
Selling flowers in the countryside is outrageous enough, but what's even more outrageous is that they are selling local "specialties" in a village they are not familiar with, and they can't even use face recognition. It's simply that all the buffs are stacked.
After the meeting, Gao Shule held two paper balls and took Gao Luo back home.
Gao Luo remained silent on the way, Gao Shu pretended to be optimistic and comforted her: "It doesn't matter if you are the last one, you can live in a worse house. I will clean it up and make sure you live comfortably."
Gao Shule's voice became lower and lower as she spoke, and she felt more and more guilty, because she thought that she didn't have high requirements for her living environment, but Luo was not the same. On the first day she arrived at her own residence, she felt that the house was too small. If she really lived in a red brick house like the one Jun lives in this issue, she would probably collapse.
Gao Shule concentrated on thinking for a while, then gently shook Gao Luo's hand and said, "If it really doesn't work, we can find the production team and ask them to take us to a hotel, okay?"
Gao Shule was ready to exchange her lens for Gao Luo's comfort.
[No, no!] I want to watch the live broadcast, but I can’t watch it if I stay in a hotel. No! 】
[No, just be patient for seven days. Wen Cheng and Jun have endured it, so why can’t you? 】
[Gao Shule is probably worried that A'Luo will not be comfortable living here.] 】
[Are you so delicate?] 】
[I’m just a little girl, so what if I’m a little bit spoiled?! 】
Gao Luo does have requirements for her living environment, and is indeed a little pampered in this regard, because from childhood to adulthood she has only suffered emotional hardships from Song Rui, and has never suffered any material hardships at all.
Gao Luo and Gao Shule returned to the villa with heavy hearts. As soon as they entered the door, they heard the old man shouting in the living room angrily, asking Gao Luo to come over and make tea for him.
Gao Luo, who was still listless, immediately mustered up her energy and ran in.
A few days ago, when I asked Xiaowawa to make tea, she was smiling all the time. But today, when she was making tea, her brows were drooping and her eyes were downcast. It was obvious that she was in a bad mood.
Cao Li turned around and asked Gao Shule: "What's wrong with her?"
Gao Shule hesitated and recounted what happened today.
After Cao Li sorted out the cause and effect, he looked at Jin Qi behind Gao Shule with a gloomy face and pointed at him with his crutch: "Go call your leader over!"
Jin Qi was carrying a camera, and was frightened and inexplicably panicked when he was suddenly pointed at. It’s like he made some mistake and the other party is looking for someone to deal with him.
Other netizens in the live broadcast room had the same feeling as him, because Cao Li's crutches were pointing directly at the camera.
[Sir, you pointed at the wrong person, it wasn’t me!] 】
[It wasn’t me who did it. I know who did it. I’ll tell you. 】
[I guess this old man used to be in a gang, his aura is so scary. 】
Jin Qi was in a dilemma, not knowing whether he should call Ning Heng over. He looked at Duanduan, his eyes seeking help.
Duanduan didn't know what to do, so she could only calm the old man down and said, "Grandpa Cao, our leader may have returned to town by now."
"Then call him and ask him to come back!"
"I...I'll make the call then."
Duanduan went out with her cell phone and hesitated for a while, just as Sang Lanze came back, followed by the village chief and the teacher who was teaching the little guest.
Seeing Sang Lanze, Duanduan was like seeing a savior: "Auntie Lan, you're back. Grandpa Cao is angry in there."
Sang Lanze was confused: "Why is he so angry? Who provoked him again?"
"Yes...it's because of little A'Luo's matter. He knows everything about it."
"That's right to be angry. I'm going to be angry too!" Sang Lanze said to the village head and the teacher, "No matter what, you have to find a way to let Luo take the make-up exam!"
"Don't be anxious, come in first and I will tell you slowly." The village chief and the teacher, each holding one of Sang Lanze's arms, helped him into the house.
After entering the house, the village chief hurried to comfort Cao Li: "Uncle, please don't be angry, calm down, your heart can't take it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Li blurted out: "Peaceful ass! Look at what you have done!"
He raised his cane again and pointed the end of it at the village head. "Look at the kind of people you invited to film the show. They have no moral integrity, no love, and no sense of responsibility. When this is broadcast on TV, people will think those people are from our village."
After scolding the village head, he scolded the teacher: "You have been a teacher for more than 30 years and you haven't retired yet. How could you do such a stupid thing? Shouldn't every student be notified of the exam? You are so irresponsible. You might as well retire early!"
Finally, the cane returned to Jin Qi again: "Is your leader blind or demented? He can't tell right from wrong. He doesn't care about bullying. What does he want?"
The old man's attack power was so strong that netizens in the live broadcast room felt like they were being scolded.
[Don’t scold me!] I support A Luo in taking the make-up exam! 】
【that is! Hurry up and call the director to have Luo take the make-up exam and get re-ranked! 】
[This segment was quite outrageous. The program team didn't notify anyone and asked the teacher to do so. The teacher didn't notify everyone one by one and only mentioned it briefly in the class. 】
[Then in the final analysis, isn't it Gao Luo's own fault? She ran away, who can I blame for not receiving the notification? 】
[If she wasn't so arrogant and thought she could pass the exam even if she didn't attend the class, how could this have happened? 】
Quite a few people blamed A'Luo, thinking it was her own fault and that she should bear the consequences.
Of course, some netizens also spoke to A Luo:
[Didn’t the teacher allow Luo to leave the classroom? She asked for permission and the teacher agreed. She didn't run away by force. 】
[I can only say that the teacher did not expect that none of the five children informed her. 】
[Who could have thought of this? I still think that Jun is the one who should be held most responsible. He told Xiaoyu that he would go to notify them, but he didn't go. 】
[Who said that he didn't report A Luo for revenge? Don't underestimate children's desire for revenge. You can say that he was using his authority as class monitor before, but now that he has the authority, he no longer needs to take responsibility, right? 】
A new round of debate broke out in the live broadcast room regarding Luo's absence from the exam, with everyone from fans to non-fans getting into an argument. Finally, it became a hot topic and this clip sparked controversy among netizens in the square.
But no matter how much they argued, it could not change the final fact - the program team entered the next stage based on Gao Luo's absent results.
Cao Li and Sang Lanze disagreed and were still trying to find a chance for Gao Luo.
The village head said, "Uncle, aunt, they disturbed you before, so you could intervene. Now they are not disturbing you, so how can you interfere with the normal filming of the program? If you tell others about this, people will think that we, the villagers of Sishui Township, are unreasonable."
"You say I'm unreasonable?" Cao Li glared, stood up, and wanted to hit the village chief on the head with his crutch.
The village chief did not retreat but stepped forward, holding the old man and letting him sit back. At the same time, he patted his back and helped him breathe, saying, "Don't be angry, don't be angry! Uncle, you are not in good health, let's not be angry!"
He holds a highly respected position in the village, but after the heart bypass surgery, everyone has to think twice before speaking to him.
Seeing how angry he was, the village chief was really scared, fearing that he might accidentally become a sinner in the village.
Upon seeing this, the teachers quickly stepped forward, one patted his chest while the other stroked his back.
"It can't be helped. It's not a big deal. At most, the house where Xiao Luo lives next time she shoots will be a little worse. It's just a little worse. It's only for seven days. It's not a big deal. It's not serious."
"Yes, they can't endure much hardship. It's far from what we had back then."
"Hearing what you said, does it have to be more miserable than you? It's not the same era anymore." Sang Lanze stepped forward and hugged Gao Luo in his arms, his eyes full of heartache.
How can you bear to let such a lovely little girl suffer? What a bunch of heartless and irresponsible people!
[I knew that Grandma Sang liked our A-Luo, but I didn’t expect that Grandpa Cao also protected her. 】
[Grandpa Cao looks fierce. You see, he was so angry on the first night, but he didn't chase Luo out. 】
[Grandpa Cao must like the tea that A-Luo makes very much. Every day when A-Luo comes back, she goes to the tea room. The importance of learning a craft well! 】
[But it seems to be of no use. According to the village chief, this matter cannot be changed. 】
This was indeed what the village chief meant. He had already gone to find Ning Heng with his teacher. The other party said that no matter what kind of mistakes occurred in the process, the result is like this and cannot be changed.
In the end, the two people persuaded the old couple again and again and finally calmed them down.
But as soon as they left, Sang Lanze sighed again and took the blame, saying, "It's my fault. If I hadn't taken Luo to the street, she wouldn't have missed the exam. At least Duanduan and Xiaoqi could have come to inform her."
"Don't be sad." Cao Li comforted her: "Look at this."
Cao Li handed her two paper balls.
The paper ball was spread out, revealing the items and locations that Gao Shule and Gao Luo would sell the day after tomorrow.
After reading the two notes, Sang Lanze's expression was noticeably more relaxed.
[Can they help Luo?] 】
Do they buy it themselves? No way, the program team stipulates that each person can only buy two copies. 】
What should we do then? 】
[I don’t know. Let’s see the day after tomorrow.] 】
[Isn’t it tomorrow?] 】
[Tomorrow the guests will go to collect supplies.] 】
The guests need to prepare the items to sell themselves, but the program team has discussed the picking range with them in advance.
Pomegranate flowers can be picked in the pomegranate forest in front of the school. The program team prepared two pairs of scissors and a basket for Gao Shule and Gao Luo.
Gao Luo has been in a low mood since last night. After arriving at the pomegranate grove, she squatted on the ground, hugged her knees, and seemed to be thinking about something.
She actually blamed herself and wondered if it would have been better if she had not gone out to draw graffiti at that time.
Gao Shule felt that she was also responsible for this matter. If she had asked the director about the exam schedule at that time, it would have been better. But she never liked to take the initiative to look for people, and it was no use regretting it now.
Gao Shule cut two pomegranate flowers and handed them to Gao Luo, coaxing her softly: "Look, Luo, aren't they very beautiful? We are very lucky to have been given the most romantic and poetic supplies. It doesn't dirty our hands, it doesn't make us tired, and it's a feast for the eyes, right?"
The fiery red pomegranate flowers bloomed on the green branches, a color that could brighten the camera lens. The flowers were like little suns, delicate and warm, as if they could burn from the branches all the way to Gao Luo's hands, trying to burn away her depressed mood.
Gao Luo looked up and saw a large pomegranate grove above her head. The green branches were covered with clusters of flowers, which reminded her of the phrase "the red flowers are blazing and brilliant, and the colors are glorious."
It seems like I didn't look at them carefully when I passed by here a few days ago.
"Does it look good?" Gao Shule asked again.
Gao Luo nodded and said, "It looks good."
[Gao Shule is really optimistic and thinks she is lucky. 】
[What can I do? It’s already like this, I have to try to be more positive. 】
[A Luo is in a bad mood, so Gao Shule has to cheer herself up. They can't both be depressed together. 】
With Gao Shule's persuasion, Gao Luo's mood improved a little.
Wen Cheng and Shen Siyan were picking their own supplies in the school's small vegetable garden. When they went back to rest at noon, they had to pass by the pomegranate forest.
I accidentally ran into Gao Shule and Gao Luo cutting flowers in the woods, and both of them tried to pretend not to see them.
Jun was helpless and shouted: "Can we sell all these flowers?"
It was too late for Wen Cheng to stop him, so he could only bite the bullet and go up to greet him: "It's time for lunch, let's go back and have lunch first and come back later."
Jun opened his mouth exaggeratedly: "Ah? They will come again in the afternoon. Can we sell the things in this basket? These flowers can grow into pomegranate fruits if they grow well on the tree. Don't let them waste them."
The person is annoying, and what he says is annoying too.
Gao Luo said disdainfully, "You cut the dense branches and male flowers, because male flowers don't bear fruit. You couldn't tell the difference between banyan trees and metasequoia trees before, and now you can't tell the difference between flowers either, right?"
Pomegranate flowers are unisexual. There are both male and female flowers on a tree. The female flowers are tubular, while the male flowers are bell-shaped. Only female flowers can bear fruit.
Jun was choked up on the spot. He was so angry that he wanted to fight back, but he couldn't hold it in for a long time and finally said: "You know more!"
"I do know a lot more than you do. You know that in your heart, otherwise why would you deliberately not inform me? You must be afraid that I would get a higher score than you!"
Jun was already feeling guilty, and Gao Luo's words directly stressed him out.
He rushed forward to Gao Luo and said in a vicious tone: "What did you say!"
Gao Luo did not retreat even a step, but fought back directly, speaking each word clearly and bluntly: "I said you did it on purpose! What's wrong!"
She saw Jun raised his fist and laughed coldly, "Why don't you let me tell the truth? You want to beat me, right? Go ahead and hit me. Let's see who can beat whom today!"
Gao Luo rolled up her five-quarter sleeves and was about to go up for a fight angrily.
The incident happened so quickly that the netizens in the live broadcast room were stunned, but they soon turned into cheerleaders and cheered in the barrage:
[Fight, fight!] I vote for Luo. 】
[Gao Luo has beaten Zhang Tianen before, is she going to beat Jun again? 】
[Then I also support A-Luo, let A-Luo get a double kill! 】
[Call him unreasonable, call him to add insult to injury. If the adults don't educate him, let the villains do it. It just so happens that I am also very angry, I support Luo! 】
Netizens were very excited, all waiting for Gao Luo to knock Jun down with one punch, and even the term #double kill# became a hot search, but the fight did not break out.
Gao Luo was pulled back by Gao Shule and protected behind her.
Jun was also dragged back by Wen Cheng.
Although Wen Cheng was angry at Gao Luo's harsh and merciless words, he couldn't really let Jun fight.
When the time comes, the marketing account will say that Jun is unreasonable and bullies the weak. After all, on the surface, Gao Luo is thinner than him and is the weaker one; analyzing the deeper causes of the conflict, it was Jun who failed to take responsibility first and then took the initiative to provoke.
In short, if a fight really breaks out, Jun will definitely be criticized by netizens.
Seeing that Jun and Gao Luo were on the verge of a fight, Shen Siyan came out to ease the atmosphere.
"I'm so irritable. I need to eat some bitter melon at noon to cool down. Jun, do you like bitter melon?"
Jun took it easy and replied, "Not bad."
Shen Siyan then asked Gao Luo: "What about A Luo, do you like it?"
Gao Luo hated her the most for trying to smooth things over, and she loved to take sides. She glanced at Shen Siyan up and down and said nothing.
Shen Siyan smiled and didn't care, she just said to Jun: "Jun, let's go, otherwise we will miss the delicious bitter melon. Zeyin, go call your brother."
Ze Yin followed his words and walked forward, took Jun's hand, and said, "Let's go have lunch."
The two groups of guests get along harmoniously, and it seems that Gao Shule and Gao Luo are the ones who are not sociable.
However, this harmonious picture was immediately broken by Bian Yuan's group.
The melons that Bian Yuan's group selected were from a melon field nearby. Zhang Tianen liked to watch the fun, and when he heard that someone seemed to be arguing here, he trotted over.
When he arrived, he found that they were about to leave, so he jumped up and down like a badger in a melon field, trying to find the melon he had just eaten.
"Is there going to be a fight? Huh? What happened? Who wants to fight?"
Jun stopped walking immediately when he saw help coming, pointing at Gao Luo: "She wants to hit me."
This is a real helper, because Zhang Tianen had a serious fight with Gao Luo and it ended in a draw.
The wicked complain first, Gao Luo is going to make Jun laugh.
"You want to hit him?" Zhang Tianen's expression was stern, and he stared at Gao Luo with his big eyes, as if he wanted to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens.
Gao Luo raised her head and looked down at him with disdain: "Why do you want to help him?"
"I……"
Zhang Tianen had just said one word when Gao Luo threatened him viciously: "I advise you to mind your own business. If you say one more word, don't even think about eating Lele's food on the show next time. If you take one bite, you'll be a pig!"
The chips Gao Luo took out were too heavy, so Zhang Tianen immediately shut up.
The next moment, as if he didn't see the two groups of guests, he took Bian Yuan and left.
[Hahahaha, I'm so happy. I thought this little fat boy was so capable. 】
[It turned out to be a paper tiger, a paper tiger that only cared about food. 】
[A Luo and Gao Shule have good tempers. On the first day, A Luo had a fight with the fat boy, but later she let him eat the food cooked by Gao Shule. I really think she is too tolerant of him. 】
[The little fat boy is sensible, but when will Jun be able to understand things? I really can't stand such a rude child. Who said they were an interesting group? How did the first season become so popular? 】
[Actually, he wasn't this arrogant last season...he just liked being the captain. 】
[He doesn't like being the captain, he actually likes to command others and make them listen to him. 】
Some netizens pointed out that Jun likes being a captain. In fact, he is only willing to enjoy the rights brought by the status and is completely unwilling to bear the corresponding responsibilities.
Of course, he is only six years old, and many of his character problems are caused by inadequate education. For example, his lack of sense of responsibility is mostly due to the doting of people around him and their covering up when he makes mistakes.
For example, the way we are dealing with the Luo incident now.
*
After the six groups of guests had picked all the supplies, the filming of the first episode finally came to the last day.
The night before, the other five groups were extremely excited because it was finally over and they were going back to live in comfortable big houses in the city. They no longer had to stay in the village, listening to cocks crowing before dawn, walking several kilometers under the scorching sun every day to cook, being exposed to the sun and smoke.
Gao Shule also asked Gao Luo: "We are going back, are you happy?"
Gao Luo replied: "I don't feel anything."
To be honest, she didn't feel that life was hard. Although she met some mean and nasty kids, she felt that she had a pretty happy life these days because of Grandma Sang and Grandpa Cao.
She liked staying with Grandma Sang and listening to her talk about the past. Perhaps it was because she felt that Grandma Sang was as kind and warm as her grandmother, and was an extremely good and elegant old lady.
Gao Luo went to bed very late that night. She was preparing gifts for Grandma Sang and Grandpa Cao.
The next day, all the guests got up early and went to the sales point after breakfast.
Gao Luo and Gao Shule had never been to Xiangxi. They were walking aimlessly on the road, carrying two bamboo baskets, one large and one small.
Although the environment in the west of the village is better, there are not many residents because many people have gone to the city to work.
The two walked for a long time and finally came to an intersection, and Gao Luo suggested selling flowers there.
The more people pass by the intersection, the higher the chance of selling it.
There are farmers' houses on both sides of the intersection, all of which are two-story buildings.
There happened to be someone at a farmer's house closer to Gaoluo. It was the hostess. When she saw a group of people stopped at her door, she asked them what they were doing.
Gao Luo immediately acted like a good girl and explained, "Auntie, we are here to sell flowers. We will take up a little space at this intersection. We will leave after we sell them. We promise not to disturb you. This is for you."
As Gao Luo spoke, she took the best and most beautiful pomegranate flower from the basket and gave it to her.
The hostess saw that it was a pomegranate flower and smiled: "Selling pomegranate flowers here? Don't you know that we grow pomegranates in our village? Almost every household has a pomegranate tree."
Gao Luo was prepared. Now that things had come to this, she could only force a smile and said softly to the hostess, "It doesn't matter. We'll sell as much as we can."
The hostess knew that Gao Luo would not be able to sell the two baskets today. Seeing the little girl pretending to be strong, cute and pitiful, she said, "You don't have to give it to me. No matter how much it is, I will buy it from you. It will be a good start for you."
Gao Luo said no, but the hostess insisted: "Then think of it as me buying you candy, okay?"
Finally, Gao Luo took the money and thanked her sweetly. The hostess smiled and touched her face.
[What a nice person! He is so kind.] 】
[He must have known that they couldn't sell anything today, because he looked at the little bun with pity in his eyes. 】
[Forget it, if it can’t be sold, then it can’t be sold. Things will work out when the time comes. Maybe the next batch of houses won’t be as bad as you imagined. 】
Everyone held the most optimistic idea and imagined that the overall living environment of the next house would be better, otherwise A Luo would suffer.
Gao Luo and Gao Shule sat at the intersection for the whole morning and only sold three flowers. The first one was bought by the hostess of the intersection, and the second one was bought by Bian Yuan.
Bian Yuan was a mobile vendor, pushing a cart around the village selling melons, running from one end of the village to the other.
He said cantaloupe were selling well and he sold more than a dozen in the morning. I passed by A Luo's place and saw that they were really poor, so I bought one for them.
The buyer of the third branch was quite unexpected; it was Feng Daiyue who sold eggplants in the east of the village.
Although her eggplants were not easy to sell, because many farmers here grew eggplants and there was no need to spend money to buy them, the program crew stayed in the east of the village for six days, and she had seen enough faces to invite familiar villagers to buy from her.
The villagers were simple and honest. They felt embarrassed when the camera was pointed at their faces, so they bought the products. So her business was not that bad.
After she bought the flowers, Gao Shule thought silently in her heart that Feng Daiyue was actually a pretty good person, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
She really didn't expect that she would be given a dish when she got back.
After Feng Daiyue returned to Xiangdong, she placed the pomegranate flowers next to her stall.
When he saw a villager passing by, he asked him to buy eggplants. The villager was curious about the pomegranate flowers and asked where they came from.
Feng Daiyue said, "I bought it at an intersection in the west of the village. Isn't it beautiful? I heard that it was picked from your pomegranate forest."
This sounds reasonable at first, but it is completely different to the ears of the villagers.
The program crew greeted the village chief and got his permission before picking the flowers, but the villagers didn't know about it.
So to them, what Feng Daiyue said meant that someone had run into the woods to pick their flowers and was selling them openly in their village.
Word spread quickly, and a group of people gathered together and went to Xiangxi to seek justice.
At that time, three hours had passed since Feng Daiyue bought the flowers. Gao Luo and Gao Shule even went back to have lunch.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the group finally found Gao Shule and Gao Luo's stall.
When I saw it was a woman with a little girl, I suddenly felt unsure.
The leader thought it was not easy to bully a woman, so he pointed at Jin Qi who was carrying a camera and said, "You are the ones who stole the flowers, right?! You did such sneaky things just to make a show? Do you have any shame?"
"No, no, I didn't steal it. I told them..." Jin Qi explained in a panic.
"Who are you greeting?!"
As soon as the leader asked this question, he suddenly heard an old and furious male voice: "Follow me, okay?"
Still wondering who was speaking so arrogantly, the group took the lead and looked around. After a while, one of them finally saw it, pointed ahead, and said in a stammer: "Uncle...Uncle Cao!"
Cao Li was sitting under the eaves of a farmhouse facing the street, supporting himself with his walking stick in his left hand and holding a palm-leaf fan in his right hand.
The palm-leaf fan was no longer fanning, but was held quietly in his hand.
The weather was hot to begin with, and when Cao Li saw this group of troublemakers, he became extremely furious and wished he could beat each of them with a cane.
When the group saw that it was Cao Li who was speaking, they were all shocked: "Uncle, why are you here?"
