Chapter 19
The Dragon Boat Festival was approaching soon, and Ruan Nanzhi planned to make rice dumplings in the morning. She got up before 7 o'clock.
Last night, Ruan Nanzhi searched online for things to buy and bought everything she needed.
Ruan Nanzhi bought a lot of rice dumplings leaves, red dates, glutinous rice, etc. and placed them on the table.
Yan Liu and I agreed to make rice dumplings together in the morning, and Ruan Nanzhi provided the ingredients.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Ruan Nanzhi estimated that the other party had not woken up yet.
She made a voice call, but the other party didn't answer.
Ruan Nanzhi went straight to the door opposite and knocked on it.
We took pictures for a full five minutes before the door on the other side opened.
"Why is it so noisy!" Yan Liu walked up to Ruan Nanzhi in her pajamas with a sleepy look on her face.
Ruan Nanzhi poked her little head and said, "What do you think? Miss, didn't you say you'd get up early to make rice dumplings?"
"Yes! We still have to make rice dumplings," Yan Liu rubbed against Ruan Nanzhi and complained, "It's so hard to get up early!"
Ruan Nanzhi said pulling her pajamas.
"You have to get up early, too. Get up now."
Yan Liu pulled out the clothes.
"Got it. I'm coming right over. Have you prepared the ingredients for making the zongzi?"
Ruan Nanzhi smiled.
"Of course I'm ready."
Ruan Nanzhi took out a small portion of the prepared food and pushed it in front of her.
"Wrap it up!"
In front of Yan Liu was a pile of zongzi leaves and a pile of red dates. She didn't know how to make zongzi, and the sight of them made her look gloomy.
“How do I wrap this?”
Ruan Nanzhi doesn’t know how to make rice dumplings very well. In previous years, she just ate the rice dumplings made by her mother, but this year she wants to make rice dumplings together with her mother.
Ruan Nanzhi searched for videos and watched them several times before she barely learned how to wrap them.
She has always been a quick learner. After watching it a few times, she will be able to understand it.
"Wrap it like this, watch carefully!" Ruan Nanzhi wrapped it once and asked Yan Liu to learn, and asked Yan Liu to learn as he wrapped a little bit.
Soon, the green triangular sweet dumplings were freshly baked.
Ruan Nanzhi packed more than 30 in total.
Yan Liu wrapped a few and succeeded, but they didn't look very good.
"No more wrapping," Yan Liu simply gave up, "I'll just eat what you wrapped!"
"Okay!" Ruan Nanzhi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "I'll give it to you. I'll give it all to you, okay?"
"Then I'll take them all."
…
Soon it was time to cook the rice dumplings. Ruan Nanzhi put the wrapped rice dumplings into boiling water and cooked them for more than half an hour.
Fresh rice dumplings, peel off the outer layer, bite into them and they are silent, so delicious.
Ruan Nanzhi divided the wrapped rice dumplings into several portions. She took out one of them and said, "Here, these are for you."
Yan Liu tasted one.
“It’s delicious!”
Ruan Nanzhi smiled.
"If it tastes good, eat more."
The other copies were also given as gifts, one was given to Gu Moji to thank him for helping her many times.
Give one to Xiao Ai and one to her mother.
Ruan Nanzhi took the rice dumplings home.
"Oh, the big star daughter is finally back." Her father teased her.
Ruan Nanzhi responded.
Ruan Nanzhi said.
"Yes, yes, I'm back."
"I also brought some rice dumplings, which I made."
The mother was surprised that her daughter could actually make rice dumplings by herself. She didn’t make any this year and bought some for herself.
"Is it that powerful?"
“I even wrapped it myself.”
"Our Zhizhi has grown up."
Ruan Nanzhi nodded.
"Yes.
Ruan Nanzhi went out with other rice dumplings in her hand.
"Mom, I'm leaving!"
Mom said.
"What's the hurry, kid? Don't you want to stay for dinner?"
Ruan Nanzhi said.
"No, Mom, I'm leaving."
Ruan Nanzhi left without even eating, leaving her parents in a state of disarray.
Ruan Nanzhi went to deliver it to Xiao Ai again.
I received a gift box from Xiao Ai, and Xiao Ai kept saying that the rice dumplings she made were better than those bought outside.
Ruan Nanzhi went to deliver it to Gu Moji again.
Gu Moji didn't give anything, but just kept praising the delicious rice dumplings.
These compliments made Ruan Nanzhi feel like he was the reincarnation of a cooking god, and he could go out and set up a stall right away!
There are other customs and habits during the Dragon Boat Festival, such as dragon boat racing and lion dancing.
An ancient city nearby had already started promoting its activities in advance by distributing flyers with all the information about the Dragon Boat Festival printed on them.
Ruan Nanzhi didn't want to go, but her brother insisted on going with her, saying that they finally had a vacation and wanted to go out and play, but their parents were worried and asked her to take good care of her brother.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, there were a lot of stalls selling all kinds of snacks in the ancient city. My brother was going back and forth between these stalls, wanting everything he saw.
Ruan Nanzhi didn't have the mentality of an old lady and had to pay him from time to time.
Ruan Nanzhi sent her brother a 100 yuan red envelope: "Ruan Nanqiu, I transferred 100 yuan to you. Buy whatever you want. Once you spend it, it will be gone! Take your time shopping."
The younger brother nodded, "I understand, sister."
Ruan Nanzhi reiterated: "I won't give you any more once you've spent all the money."
"Okay," my brother couldn't wait to pay and bought a little rabbit lamp.
The younger brother ran away so fast that Ruan Nanzhi had to follow him all the time.
Ruan Nanzhi thought that today's WeChat step count would break the record.
There was a dragon boat race in the river. Ruan Nanzhi walked forward and saw a TV station interviewing them.
Coincidentally, they interviewed the younger brother.
I heard my brother's quiet voice from the other side.
The reporter asked, "Did your brother come here alone?"
The younger brother said, "I came here with my sister."
The reporter looked up and saw Ruan Nanzhi and recognized her. "You are that Nanzhi, right?"
"That's right," Ruan Nanzhi nodded.
"Is that convenient for an interview?"
Ruan Nanzhi: “Sure.”
Ruan Nanzhi took the microphone and said a lot of words praising his hometown and the ancient city.
After the interview, the younger brother blinked and said, "Sister, are we going to be on TV?"
"Yes," said my sister.
Ruan Nanzhi didn't expect to see Gu Moji here, and what was even more coincidental was that he brought his sister with him.
Ruan Nanzhi said: "What a coincidence!"
Gu Moji: "It's quite a coincidence."
A few of them found a milk tea shop to sit in, and Ruan Nanzhi ordered a grape milk green tea.
His brother bought an ice cream.
Gu Moji didn't buy anything, so his sister said, "I don't know what to order."
Ruan Nanzhi gave a recommendation: "The strawberry milkshake is delicious."
Gu Moji's sister ordered the strawberry milkshake last.
They strolled around until night before going home.
The TV series starring Ruan Nanzhi and Gu Moji has been scheduled to be aired tonight.
The TV series broke 4,000 views on its first broadcast, and the response was very good for several consecutive days thereafter.
The after-sales service of TV dramas must also keep up.
Ruan Nanzhi, Gu Moji and the other two leading actors were all there, said reporters in the audience.
"Let's do a dance!"
Ruan Nanzhi performed a dance that had been rehearsed long ago to the accompaniment of music, and the other leading actors also followed suit.
Ruan Nanzhi has a good figure, long legs and arms, and is very suitable for dancing.
Ruan Nanzhi heard the reporters praising her.
"The baby is so beautiful."
"Baby dances so well."
After the reporter interviewed the male and female protagonists, he continued to interview her: "What do you think your character is like?"
Ruan Nanzhi replied: "My personality is the type that is carefree and heartless."
"Is there a difference between that and your personality in real life?"
Ruan Nanzhi replied: "There is a gap, and it's a huge gap."
The TV series was a hit, and Ruan Nanzhi was approached one after another for endorsements.
With five endorsements in a row, Ruan Nanzhi is very busy.
"Sister Nanzhi takes really good photos," said assistants Xiaoyu and Xiaoai.
Xiao Ai paused the TV show she was watching enthusiastically: "Yeah! I really like the supporting cast, that couple is so sweet."
Xiaoyu also said: "I also prefer the secondary CP."
Ruan Nanzhi’s next destination was a trip to a shopping mall.
Before she arrived, the mall, several floors above and below, was packed with people.
Under the protection of a group of security guards, Ruan Nanzhi came to the brand host.
There were many fans taking pictures of her at the scene. I wonder how many of them were just idle people who came to join in the fun, and how many were fans.
The host held up the microphone and asked her, "Do you have anything to say now?"
She handed over the microphone as she spoke.
Ruan Nanzhi looked at the people at the scene and took the microphone.
"First of all, I would like to thank all the fans and audiences who came to the event. It is an honor to be here today..."
Ruan Nanzhi went home after the event.
The next day, I was going to record a variety show.
At the beginning, each team’s CP is required to have a sweet interaction.
Gu Moji’s CP is very cooperative, but Ruan Nanzhi’s CP is not very cooperative.
The host began to talk about the segment.
"Princess carry me!"
Gu Moji just put his arm around the heroine's waist and gave her a big princess hug.
On the other hand, the popular young actor Ruan Nanzhi was hesitant and failed to hug the girl at first and almost fell down.
Fortunately, I was able to hold him up in the end.
Ruan Nanzhi was speechless. She weighed less than 90 kilograms. Was she that difficult to hold?
Throughout the whole show, I didn’t see the popular young actor show any good expression towards Ruan Nanzhi.
Ruan Nanzhi was also very self-aware and kept a cold face throughout the whole show.
She is not someone who would ask for help but feel cold towards others.
Ruan Nanzhi has been in the domestic entertainment industry for a while and is considered a popular young star.
On the other hand, Ruan Nanzhi has no traffic at all and is a pure newcomer, so naturally people are not very enthusiastic about her.
I have to say that the entertainment industry is very realistic.
Then came the cooking part, and Ruan Nanzhi asked beforehand, "Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
The popular young actor said, "There is no dietary restriction."
Ruan Nanzhi made her best dish, Maoxuewang, which was fresh, fragrant and pungent, and the spiciness was unbearable even when you smelled it.
Each person has a specialty dish. Gu Moji makes spicy chicken, the heroine makes sweet and sour pork ribs, and the popular young actor makes fish-flavored shredded pork.
Four people finished cooking.
The host tasted it and commented.
"You've all done a great job! Now, please have the girls eat the dishes made by their male partners and comment on them, and the boys eat the dishes made by their female partners and comment on them!"
Gu Moji took a bite of sweet and sour pork ribs and gave it to A.
The popular young actor took a bite of Maoxuewang and gave it to B.
The heroine took a bite of the spicy chicken and gave it to A.
Ruan Nanzhi took a bite of the shredded pork with fish flavor and gave it to D.
Ruan Nanzhi didn't know how the host could lie and say that the food was delicious, when it was obvious that the shredded pork with fish flavor was not delicious at all.
At this point, the host hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Why is it a D?"
Ruan Nanzhi said truthfully: "Because I feel I can only give it to D."
"Really?" the host changed the subject. "That's all for today."
