Chapter 106 Opening "Who doesn't love beautiful things?"...
The director team reserved five seats for them in advance, and Qiao Zheng, Qiao Zhizheng, Cheng Sijin and Zhu Ping'an's stalls were next to each other.
The other groups of stalls were next to each other, with food next to each other, and the smell of food was very tempting.
This time, the director team finally did something helpful and gave each guest 20 yuan to buy some food at the market to get through this hungry morning.
At the end, if there is any extra money left for breakfast, it must be returned to the production team. If they spend more than the amount, the production team will not give them any extra compensation.
[I saw the real-life version of Zhou Pa Pi]
[The director's surname is Liu, so he should be called Liu Paopi]
What can you buy with twenty yuan?
In the city, a single milk tea might cost you almost all your money, but in the countryside, you can buy 20 steamed buns, enough to last you two or three days.
[You can tell at a glance that you are an experienced person]
[Twenty steamed buns, you have to eat them with water. Just eating the steamed buns would make your neck stretch two miles.]
[You guys are so cruel! I didn't say we were just eating steamed buns. There are so many delicious things in this episode. Go buy half a pound of fried fish. They're so fragrant and crispy.]
[Meat pie is 3 yuan each, crispy on the outside and fragrant and fresh meat filling on the inside]
[Snow pear with rock sugar for 8 yuan each, moisturizes the lungs and relieves coughs, the pear flesh is soft, fragrant and sweet]
[A large box of salad for 5 yuan, crispy, fresh and spicy]
[I'm actually getting hungry from watching the comments, so I'll just go downstairs and order a deluxe version of a pancake with meat, eggs, sausage, and chicken fillet.]
[Sister, the food is so good, do you still want to live for the next half month?]
The prices in the countryside are actually quite good, not as high as in the city. For 40 yuan for two people, as long as you plan well, you can eat a lot of delicious food.
[Ever since I left my hometown for school and work, going to the market seems so far away that it seemed like a thing of the past life. When I see them at the market, I can almost smell the sesame aroma on the Legion Guokui. I must go home to go to the market during the National Day holiday this year.]
"Our Love Diary" can be regarded as a relatively fresh and unconventional dating variety show.
Many dating variety shows on the market may be deliberately arranged by the director or the guests use the program to increase popularity and deliberately cause topics, so as to achieve the purpose of quarreling and provoking wars. Different guest groups compare this and that, and fans follow suit, causing a bloody storm online and quarreling fiercely. In this way, the popularity of the program and the guests increases, and in the end some people are happy and some are sad.
"Our Love Diary" was immediately made to look good, and the main reason for this may be that the director team did not like to interfere with personnel matters, which allowed the guests to sympathize with each other and make a name for themselves in the dating variety show track with their fresh and unconventional style.
The comments on live variety shows are relatively harmonious, while those outside the variety shows are both good and bad.
"What's the point of a dating variety show if there's no fighting? Don't even think about it being a dating variety show. Just define it as a rural variety show."
"If you don't like watching, there are people watching. If you don't want to watch, just go watch something else. Why are you being so sarcastic here~"
"Tsk~"
"Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng look fake at first glance. They don't even restrain themselves when they're on camera. Who would display such affection in front of the camera? It's probably a script."
"You know it again? You know it again? You know it again?"
"Maybe this is the result of people restraining themselves."
"What does it mean to be unrestrained? Do you do it every day?"
"No...sister, you...you are being too blunt."
"Do you want to be more restrained? Why don't you just walk together, each holding a stick, without touching the other? Would you be satisfied with that?"
"Although Qiao Zhizheng seems like a nice person, I'm sorry, Qiao Zhizheng, I still can't forget Xu Ying, who retired from the entertainment industry because of her."
"What do you mean by quitting the entertainment industry because of Qiao Zhizheng? Xu Ying must have had issues of his own, right? He deliberately targeted others and ended up getting screwed."
"Can't forget? If you can't forget, get a tattoo."
"If you know your words are unpleasant and others don't like them, why do you still say them? Isn't that just asking for trouble and making yourself miserable?"
"I think you are just looking for trouble."
"I'm a little afraid to watch it. I really like the couple Gu Xingchui and Lu Xingmian. I've seen their clips countless times, but I'm afraid to enter the live broadcast room. The feeling between them is so strong."
"Sisters, you just need to watch more. They come on the show because they can't solve the problems between them and want others to help solve the problem."
"Is that so? I'll go check it out."
"I like Zhou Yan and Yu Ting. They are like two huskies, full of energy every day, just wanting to run around and have fun."
"I used to dislike Zhu Ping'an. What right did she have? Why did Cheng Sijin have a crush on her for so many years? Although I know there's nothing wrong with being liked, I hated her because I liked Cheng Sijin too much. On this show, I was forced to like Zhu Ping'an."
"Zhu Ping'an doesn't seem to be very good at expressing her feelings, but every move she makes tells me that she loves Cheng Sijin."
"This is what it means to wait and see until the clouds clear and the moon appears, and dripping water wears away the stone until it eventually forms a pit."
"I've liked Qingfang and Yu Yiqi for ten years. I hope they can be happy together, but it seems like there's no passion between them anymore."
"Doesn't love always turn into family affection in the end?"
"But not everyone can't accept that their passionate love eventually turns into family affection. At least I don't think Qingfang would accept it."
"Gu Xingchui and Lu Xingmian's relationship just has a feeling of being together, and you can still see that they both love each other. Qingfang and Yu Yiqi's relationship is really... destined to be together."
"No matter who ends up with whom, our Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao will definitely end up together. After all, falling in love with a face that looks so much like your own is definitely true love."
"When I look in the mirror and see my face, I feel a strange sense of strangeness. I don't think I will fall in love."
"I'm different. Every day, I look at my peerless beauty, which is so stunning that it can make the moon hide in shame, fish sink to ashes, and geese fall to ashes. My heart flutters every day. There is no one in this world who is worthy of me. The thought of someone else having such a beautiful face like mine in the future makes me heartbroken and unable to sleep or eat."
"Sister, you are suitable for Narcissus."
"Daffodils? What are they?"
After the netizens’ enthusiastic explanation, the door to a new world opened for me. I was extremely shocked, then suddenly enlightened, and gladly accepted it.
…
At the market
Qiao Zhizheng looked at the green frog, the red dragonfly, and the white rabbit in her hand. She gently pressed the frog's tail and then released it, and the frog jumped up.
Qiao Zhizheng turned to look at Qiao Zheng. Her fingers were so nimble and swift that it was almost impossible to see their movements. With a few swishes, the small woven basket was filled with a variety of lilies, geraniums, cherry blossoms, lily of the valley, tulips, and kapok flowers woven from colored paper...
Why are there no paper roses?
Because Qiao Zheng said that roses have a special meaning and they are given to her alone and will not be given to anyone else.
Thinking of this, Qiao Zhizheng held her face with both hands and smiled at Qiao Zheng who was working non-stop.
Qiao Zhizheng didn't have her skills and couldn't help much. She could only hand her a new piece of colored paper when she folded a flower and provide her with rich emotional value.
"Qiao Zheng, you are really amazing."
"Qiao Zheng, if you have time, please teach me. I also want to fold such beautiful flowers for you."
"Qiao Zheng, your flower folding skills are so good, you must have learned it for a long time."
Qiao Zheng shook her head, multitasking: "No, I'll learn it after watching the video once."
Qiao Zhizheng's words sounded sweetly in her ears: "You are so smart. You can learn it after just one look."
Qiao Zheng looked up at her helplessly, the meaning in her eyes was very clear - if you want to learn, you can learn it just by watching it once. This is a roundabout way of praising yourself.
Qiao Zhizheng understood her look, giggled, and subconsciously wanted to kiss her, but realized that he was under the camera, so he stopped halfway and leaned his head on Qiao Zheng's shoulder. This was the downside of filming a show. It was a bit embarrassing to be intimate in front of the camera and countless viewers.
Cheng Sijin Zhu Ping'an at the next stall sold a lot of lotus pods. Seeing that Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng had not opened their stalls yet, she couldn't help but feel anxious for them. But there was no point in being anxious. Qiao Zheng was folding flowers, and Qiao Zhizheng was playing with paper butterflies calmly.
Cheng Sijin laughed at herself in her heart. The emperor was not anxious, but the eunuch was. Qiao Zhengzhizheng looked like she had a plan in mind.
"What are your plans?" Qiao Zhizheng asked Qiao Zheng unsurely.
After Qiao Zheng folded the last kitten, she placed it on Qiao Zhizheng's head. Qiao Zhizheng didn't dare to move, for fear that the light little paper cat would fall.
Qiao Zheng had only one answer: "Just wait."
Wait. Wait for what?
Qiao Zhizheng stiffened her neck and took the cat off her head. A small figure stood in front of the stall. It was a five or six-year-old child, her eyes filled with surprise. She called out to the woman buying buttons at the stall next to her, "Mom, look, there's a tiger here."
The little girl's mother was not interested in the paper tiger, but the orange paper lily was very beautiful. She told her that it was made of paper, and it did not have the moisture and tenderness of fresh flowers, nor the rich fragrance, but its beauty was no less than that of fresh lilies. It would not wither or die, and could be kept at home for a long time.
When the little girl's mother realized what was happening, she couldn't help but touch the flowers with her fingers, blinked, and asked the owner behind the stall, who looked even more beautiful than the flowers, "How much is it?"
The little girl followed up her words and said, "There is also this little tiger, this little rabbit, and this little frog."
The little girl's mother looked at the little animals that the little girl was pointing at. They were not flat but three-dimensional, with plump bodies and each one looked very cute.
A smile flashed in Qiao Zheng's eyes. This was exactly what she had been waiting for: "Two yuan a flower, and one and a half yuan a small animal."
The little girl's mother nodded, saying that the price was fair, after all, it took time and effort to fold it.
Qiao Zhizheng immediately understood Qiao Zheng's intention in folding flowers and animals. She picked up a woven basket and handed it to them. "There are so many people at the market today. It would be a shame if these got squeezed and damaged. Why not take a small basket with you? You can take flowers and animals back home. The most important thing is that you can use them at home."
The little girl's mother thought that there was a small basket at home.
The next second, when she heard the price quoted by Qiao Zhizheng, the little girl's mother thought again, the price is not expensive, just buy it home, the house doesn't lack a little space to put this basket, it can be used anyway.
The little girl's mother paid the money readily. When she left, she held her daughter's hand with one hand and the woven basket with the other. Her eyes looked at the beautiful flowers from time to time, with a look of joy in her eyes.
“Who doesn’t love beautiful things?”
After being immersed in the daily necessities of life for a long time, people begin to feel uneasy and guilty about spending money on flashy things.
Why should we feel guilty? We don't live for others, we live for ourselves. The so-called "if he/she is well, I am well" is essentially to satisfy our own heart. Ultimately, we do this to make ourselves happy.
Sometimes it’s a good idea to buy something flashy without having to consider whether it’s cost-effective. It can add some fresh colors to your ordinary and dull life and make you happy.
-----------------------
The author has something to say: I always feel that people should be a little selfish, live for themselves, and their own happiness is the most important. Even if others scold me and say that I am selfish and cold-hearted, so what? I spend my money on myself. No one can give me the love I want, so I will love myself well.
