The setting of a high school intellectual and a down-and-out idol
Pei Xu reached out to push him away but Jiang Lin grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards his chest, with a smile on his face. Pei Xu pulled back with all her strength.
"Mr. Jiang, if you feel itchy, go take a shower."
Pei Xu's wrist turned slightly red, and Jiang Lin let him go, "Are you still trying to scare me with a snake?"
"You really hold a grudge!" Pei Xu pretended to sigh, "Is there a possibility that I am also afraid of snakes?"
"You were born and raised here, are you afraid too?"
Pei Xu was defeated by his cuteness. He sighed and shrugged his shoulders. He said, "What's wrong with being born and raised here? Am I Xu Xian? Is that snake the White Snake who came here to repay her kindness? Do you know my name and where I live?"
"But aren't rural areas in the south humid and hot with lots of snakes and insects? And I saw netizens saying that in Guangdong and Guangxi, if a snake is caught, there will be one less chicken."
Pei Xu was silent for a few seconds, and then refuted the rumor, "Now many snakes are listed as national protected animals and cannot be caught or sold. If you make dragon and phoenix soup, you will be put in jail."
Jiang Lin encouraged himself: "When the weather gets hot, I will go up the mountain fully armed. I am not afraid."
Pei Xu scared him: "You have protected the ones on the ground, but aren't you afraid of one falling from the tree?"
Jiang Lin immediately looked up and saw that the densely packed mango trees were already laden with fruit. The branches were lush and the leaves were thick with fruit. It was a perfect place for snakes to roam. He couldn't help but exclaimed.
After a thorough investigation, the police were unable to find any evidence. Aunt Eighteen's accusations were weak and feeble. She cried and made a fuss about her grievances in the village for a long time, but then she stopped crying.
Thanks to the efforts of all parties, the ratings of the program gradually improved.
Jiang Lin’s old fans created a special super topic for the program and formed an Amway team.
"It is the only farming variety show in the domestic entertainment industry. It is real and has no script. Everyone is welcome to judge it."
"Everyone, come and see my top idol go to the countryside to farm, and take everyone closer to the most real agriculture."
The unique and authentic style of the variety show has gradually attracted some variety show fans, who are amazed at how the young people can be so emotionally stable and admire the fact that they can take off the glamorous outer garments of the entertainment industry and engage in agriculture down to earth.
One fan said: "I really feel pity for the show. There are so few viewers even after the tenth episode! There is only one sponsor, so shabby. Real farming but no one cares. The scripted variety show jumps up and down with a hard advertisement every few minutes."
"That's right. The boys are secretly implying that the production team is poor. I looked at their official account and saw that Xiang Chuzhe replied to the fans that he is the one who is in charge. I guess the production team doesn't even have any publicity."
"What kind of promotion is there? There is no such variety show on any platform. I saw the photos of Pei Xu and Jiang Lin on a pinned post on a flower shop owner's social platform. Someone in the comments section said that the two of them appeared on a farming variety show and came here."
Fans started to promote the show on social media, but it was too difficult to promote the show. Some passersby commented: "Farming? Are you telling me that China Entertainment 208 really farms? They can't even tell the difference between green vegetables and wild vegetables?"
A passerby replied: "He must have shown up in the field for a while, found a good angle to capture a few shots of him working, showing the sweat on his forehead and the bulging veins on his hands, and then he left and went back to the hotel to stay that night."
Another passerby said: "If it was a Hong Kong or Taiwan artist going to a farming variety show, I would barely believe it because they are very dedicated. But now who would believe you if you said idols went to farm?"
Someone replied in a deviating tone: "Stop it, the older generation of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists are so old now, don't mess with my old darlings, especially Zha Zha Hui."
Some passers-by also joined in the fun: "I happen to be a member of this platform, I will go to judge it now."
A passerby who loves looks exclaimed: "I really like their looks. Imagine how sexy it would be if they were carrying things in a sleeveless vest and sweated profusely!"
"I will watch it for its looks, sisters, wait for my feedback, I will come back and let you know if it's good."
The show continued to attract new fans, and the boys’ nightly fixed program added barrage of comments on the show in addition to the meetings.
Xiang Chuzhe searched for Pei Xu and Jiang Lin's previous flower-themed photo on the social platform, and smiled slyly and said, "So this is how our Mancang chairman and secretary general make money to support their family!"
Others gathered around to look at the photo.
Cheng Enyue said with a smile: "It's very effective. Shoot more. It's not shameful to make money."
“When did you take the photo?”
Jiang Lin replied to Li Xuran: "When we went to Yunnan to investigate the black roses, we paid a few thousand yuan for them. It was hard to refuse a girl like her."
Pei Xu chimed in guiltily: "There are so many stalls in Dounan Flower Market and the competition is so fierce. It's not easy for the boss there, and the prices they offer are not bad either."
Song Yifan showed his financial instincts, shook his head and said, "Brother Xu, I'm really not trying to discourage you. This price is barely enough to buy you to take a set of photos, but Brother Lin is willing to pay more than this. After all, if he is willing to sell his body...rich women in the circle are also happy to offer him."
Jiang Lin poked his head from behind and said to himself, "What are you talking about? I'm not that kind of person, but I wouldn't consider it if they give me more."
"Oh, it's a lot." Pei Xu said playfully, "Then why did you agree when it was so little?"
Jiang Lin said proudly: "This is different. Can a pat on the face and a kiss on the face have the same price?"
Pei Xu held up his phone to show him: "Master Jiang, can I ask the fans how much a kiss on the face costs?"
Jiang Lin read out the comment: "I can't imagine how happy I would be if I could kiss Jiang Lin!"
Jiang Lin felt embarrassed after reading it, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen such lewd words for a long time."
Pei Xu poked his chest and asked him, "What's the price?"
"What? You want to kiss me?" Jiang Lin subconsciously followed his words.
Pei Xu's hand stopped for a few seconds while he was cleaning the dishes. He suddenly raised his voice and said jokingly, "I was thinking that we could come up with a paid project, and you could sell your body to generate income for the company."
"I'm the first to agree." Song Yifan raised his hand actively. "The dark red roses have entered a stable growth period and need more nutrients. We have to buy fertilizers recently. The family's money is only coming in but not going out. Brother Lin, we have no choice but to sacrifice you to support the family."
Li Xuran added: "We have almost cut down all the wild grass in the village. We have to buy corn kernels and bran to feed the hundreds of Xiayan chickens every day. Except for breathing, everything costs money."
Jiang Lin walked past them carrying a rice pot, touched their heads one by one, and said, "You guys are really good at making money! How about this, let's ask Boss Song to find some connections to get us a bottle of wine, and then we can all go out and sing, dance, and sell wine, and that's it."
Pei Xu wiped the table and said, "The world is going downhill!"
The first rays of morning sun shone on the earth, and the dew on the dark red rose leaves was crystal clear. Pei Zongli and Zhao Sumei walked along the ridge of the field to observe the growth.
Pei Zongli pulled out some weeds and said, "It's a good thing we laid the ground film, otherwise there would be more weeds than seedlings."
"There was little rain this spring, otherwise the effect of the mulch would be reduced by one third if it continued to rain."
Pei Zongli sighed: "Last night I took a water pump to the river to pump water into the fields, and it took more than an hour to fill up the water. If this continues, there will be drought."
Zhao Sumei's face was full of worry: "This year's mango production is much higher, and the fruit-bearing rate is much higher than in previous years. We have survived the fruit-dropping period without any wind or rain, so we can't sell it at a high price this year."
"There's nothing we can do about it. This year's astronomical phenomena are like this. Otherwise, why do we say that farmers depend on the weather for their livelihood?"
Liu Huabao drove a cart full of sweet potato leaves to Pei Xu's house.
Zhao Sumei's eyes sparkled with surprise, "Wow, Xiaobao, where did you get so many fresh sweet potato leaves?"
Since raising Xiayan chickens, the weeds in the wasteland have also been harvested, and the green grass in Peijia Village has become a precious natural feed.
"Liu He and his team went to search in several neighboring villages and found a large area of wasteland with sweet potato leaves overflowing, so they brought back a few carts."
"What a timely relief, Xiaobao." Pei Zongli helped move the sweet potato leaves.
"Aunt, uncle, we have planted a lot in the fields, so we won't have to worry about getting through this period."
Zhao Sumei praised him: "You reminded us, so we planted too. The main thing is that it didn't rain, otherwise the weeds in the wasteland would have grown wildly overnight. We don't have to worry about that."
Liu Huabao patted his hands covered in dirt and said, "The fruit trees are full of fruits, but rice and corn are affected. Uncles and aunts from the neighboring village have to intercept the river during the day and store water to irrigate the fields at night."
Zhao Sumei took a bunch of bananas from the basket in the living room, put them into a red plastic bag, and hung it on the handlebars of the tricycle. She said lovingly, "There's nothing good at home right now. Take some bananas back and share them with your family and brothers."
"Thank you, uncle and aunt." Liu Huabao did not refuse.
Pei Zongli watched him go away and praised him, "You are so sensible at such a young age. Many children can't compare to Xiaobao. You are diligent and down-to-earth. Boys should be like this."
"That's right." Zhao Sumei said lovingly, "Children from poor families have to grow up early. Dad is not mobile, so the burden is all on him. It's not easy for Xiaobao."
"As long as you are not lazy, life will always get better and better."
The show's ratings gradually increased, but things developed in an unexpected direction, which caught the program team and the teenagers by surprise.
Fans are actually shipping this couple on a farming variety show!
In the dark room, the camera fixed in the corner was flashing a small red light. The light from the screen illuminated Jiang Lin's face as he lay on his side. He scrolled through the comment section, with half of the comments praising the show and half supporting the couple.
"Pei Xu and Jiang Lin are such a good couple! Family members! Who understands the setting of the high school intellectual and the down-and-out idol?"
"Li Xuran and Song Yifan are a perfect match for me! The difference in their body sizes is incredible! Li Xuran really loves teasing Song Yifan!"
"I think they can all be good at it, and their interactions are so loving!"
Some fans also advised: "When you recommend the program, try to promote it in the direction of agriculture, which is positive energy, so as to avoid being taken out of context by some marketing accounts and thinking that the boys are using agriculture to create a gimmick. This is a taboo! It will also go against the original intention of the brothers and let down their efforts.
"Yes, let's just keep to ourselves. The idea of the program is so good, and we work so hard. We have to keep up with them and pay attention to agriculture, which is the foundation of our country."
