"What do you want to talk to her about?" Xie Yunian turned off his phone and looked at what Gu Qiye was holding in his hand.
Gu Qiye frowned slightly, feeling strange about what Xie Yunian said. He was looking for Shen Shiyi, not Xie Yunian.
But thinking that Xie Yunian was a person he couldn't afford to offend, he softened his tone and said, "Please just tell me where Shen Shiyi is. You can't help me with what I want to tell her."
"How do you know I can't help you if you don't tell me?" Xie Yunian looked lazy.
Gu Qiye's grip on the gift bag kept tightening, just as they were at a stalemate.
Shen Shiyi's voice suddenly came from the side, "What do you want to tell me?"
When Gu Qiye heard the voice, he was delighted. He subconsciously turned around and handed over the gift in his hand.
"Sister Shi Yi, this is a small token of my appreciation. I...want to ask if you can have further communication with the village chief. I can do whatever you need me to do for you."
"I can't help you, take the gift." Shen Shiyi didn't even look at the gift in his hand.
"Is there really no other solution? We'll build a house for the village chief, and he'll live there for six months at most. Then he'll leave. The new house and furniture will belong to him, so he can only make money."
Gu Qiye was still thinking about persuading him. In his opinion, it was a win-win situation.
"You can try to talk about things that are sure to make money yourself." Xie Yunian stood up and stretched, his tall figure blocking Shen Shiyi behind him.
He turned around and looked at Shen Shiyi, who was holding clothes in her hands, “Shishi, go take a shower, leave this to me.”
"Yeah." Shen Shiyi nodded and went straight into the makeshift room.
"Sister Shi Yi..." Gu Qiye still wanted to keep her.
Xie Yunian directly blocked the way. His expression was no longer as gentle as before, and his voice was much colder. "Don't you understand what I'm saying? Get out."
Gu Qiye frowned, puzzled, "Xie Yunian, you... I haven't offended you, why are you stopping me from talking to Shen Shiyi?"
"Too noisy." Xie Yunian's expression was indifferent, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Gu Qiye knew that staying any longer would lead to nothing, so he had to leave temporarily.
Shen Huai was watching this scene at the next door. He silently took a step back and retreated into the house. Shen Shiyi refused to accept the gift.
She is very nice to people like Xie Yunian who say one thing in public but do another behind the scenes.
After summarizing, Shen Huai came to the conclusion that Shen Shiyi was stupid enough not to recognize the green tea man, but was quite attracted by him.

The next day, shooting time.
Director Ma led everyone into the kitchen. He thought that with air conditioning and manual labor, nothing would go wrong this time.
"Director Ma, are you planning to cook for everyone today?" Zhong Tianba walked into the kitchen with a hint of uncertainty on his face. Today's task... is in the kitchen?
"No, today's task is to make dumplings. We've been filming in the village for a while, so it's not too much to treat the villagers to a meal of dumplings, right?"
As soon as Director Ma finished speaking, everyone's faces changed drastically. They didn't care about the money for the dumplings, but the main thing was the dumplings! The dumplings! The dumplings!
There are so many people in the village, how long will it take them to make dumplings?
"Director Ma, we don't know how to do that." Zhong Tianba tried to escape by pestering.
Director Ma smiled cunningly, "It's okay, you can learn. Just one plate per household will do. Ten is not a lot. You get one point for every pack of ten."
“…”
Although the guests were reluctant, they still sat down around the long table resigned to their fate. The program team had already prepared all the dumpling fillings and dumpling wrappers.
Xu Miaomiao got the hang of it quickly and made beautiful dumplings quickly.
"How do you make it?" Shen Huai leaned in to watch. He looked clumsy in handling the dumpling wrappers.
"Just pinch it left and right like this." Xu Miaomiao slowed down her movements to teach him.
Zhong Tianba also came over to learn, but some things seemed simple but were difficult to do.
The first one that Zhong Tianba made was torn open and the stuffing spilled all over the table.
"Try to be gentler and don't break the skin." Xu Miaomiao saw the problem at a glance and taught softly.
"Okay." Zhong Tianba nodded and studied hard.
The first dumpling Shen Huai made was extremely ugly, but fortunately it was not broken and could be used. He put it on his plate.
"The dumplings you made are so unappetizing." Zhong Tianba showed disgust on his face. It was the first time he knew that dumplings could be so unappetizing.
"Get out of the way." Shen Huai chose to ignore it. At this moment, there were only points in his eyes and mind.
The other tables also gradually learned it, and Xie Yunian’s dumplings were no less delicious than Xu Miaomiao’s.
"Xie Yunian, I never thought a grown man like you could be so clever and dexterous!"
"I've learned a little." Xie Yunian's tone was calm and he quickly wrapped a small plate.
Shen Shiyi held the dumpling wrapper in her hand for a long time, not knowing where to start. She turned her head to look at Xie Yunian, then at Xu Miaomiao, and learned some of their wrapping methods.
The final product is round and looks like a bun.
“Chen Shiyi, your bag is so ugly.” Zhong Tianba said without a moment’s rest.
Shen Shiyi: “…”
Xie Yunian took the plate next to him and exchanged it with Shen Shiyi's.
"Shishi, I'll pack it."
"It's not fair!" Zhong Tianba stood up suddenly.
"No!" Shen Huai also reacted violently.
"Is there any difference whether Shishi or I get these points?" Xie Yunian asked slowly and methodically.
These words silenced the two rebellious people instantly. Indeed, they were in the same group, and as for their personal points... they were also ranked in the top two.
[This is the first time I've seen Xie Yunian be so powerful. He probably doesn't want to be separated from Shen Shiyi, so he works so hard to earn points.]
Yu Nian is exactly the ideal younger brother in my mind. He can make dumplings, is handsome, and is also good with Chen Shiyi. I looked at my younger brother who only steals my snacks. Where are my slippers!!!
If Zhong Tianba gets killed by Dark Shark someday, I wouldn't be surprised at all. He really has offended everyone with his mouth.
"There is a difference. It's different between me choosing first or you. Come on." Shen Shiyi pushed the plate back and took back his ugly dumplings.
"Okay." Xie Yunian suddenly smiled when he heard this, and his hands made dumplings even faster.
"The first place may not necessarily be between you two." Shen Huai felt sour in his heart, a little regretful that he had warned Shen Shiyi in the car.
Just a little bit.
"It seems that Shen Huai is very motivated, so you have to work harder." Director Ma came over as if watching a show.
The photographer also took the trouble to take pictures of the ugly dumplings on his plate.
More than two hours later, Xie Yunian had made more than seventy dumplings, and Xu Miaomiao had made more than sixty.
The rest of the people were about twenty or so, and the smallest among them was Su Zhi, who had only ten. The key point was that they had strange shapes and used two or three layers of skin.
"You made these dumplings..." Director Ma's face was a little indescribable. He really felt reluctant to give them away. If someone didn't know, they would think that their production crew was stingy and didn't want to give away the meat.
