Chapter 74 The Program Team is Really Good

"Ashu, wake up."

Xie Luoshu asked sleepily: "What time is it?"

"It's past six."

Oh, it’s a little after six, not that late... Wait, who woke him up!

Xie Luoshu sat up suddenly, and after seeing the person in front of him clearly, he said, "Ah...what's wrong with you?"

"Director Zhu said that we adults have to make breakfast ourselves today." Gu Yejin said, "Let me wake you up."

"Oh, okay." Xie Luoshu nodded, "Then I'll go wash up first."

"good."

Xie Luoshu ran to the bathroom as if escaping. He deliberately stayed a little longer, waiting for Ye Jin to leave.

He didn't know either. He just felt a little confused. After talking with Gu Yejin in the middle of the night yesterday, he felt confused.

Is it love? He doesn't know.

In short, it was a very strange feeling, and he was not opposed to Gu Yejin's actions during this period. To be honest, he accepted them naturally. He was not like this before. When he heard Gu Yejin said that he wanted to pursue her, he did not feel disgusted, but rather... looked forward to it?

Is he also obsessed with looks?

"Ashu, are you ready?" Gu Yejin knocked on the door gently. "The others are still waiting for us."

Gu Yejin is still here? Yes, we can't let others wait too long.

Xie Luoshu quickened his pace: "Here I come!"

"Good morning." The other adults were obviously still asleep. In order not to disturb the children, the production team gathered outside. Today's weather was cooler than yesterday.

"Good morning, everyone. Our task this morning is to make our own breakfast. First we have to play a little game, Breakfast Match!"

"Breakfast matchmaking?" Zou Jiayan's internet speed is very fast. "The turtle matchmaking kind?"

"That's right!" Director Zhu nodded. "One person draws nine cards and puts them on the nine-square grid. If two cards are the same, they are touched. You take the touched cards yourself. The more cards you touch, the more cards you add. When you can't touch any more cards, the game ends. Come to our staff to get the ingredients according to the cards in your hand."

"Doesn't that just depend on luck?" Liu Ruotong pondered. He knew himself very well and his luck was terrible.

"Yes, yes, let's draw the cards." Director Zhu said, "In order to save time, the five of us will do it together."

"The production team is so boring." Zou Jiayan complained, "They're playing little games just to make breakfast."

"Also," Director Zhu added, "All the ingredients you draw must be used up!"

"Hmm?" Zou Jiayan had participated in quite a few variety shows, and his intuition told him, "Something's wrong!"

"Teacher Xie, would you like to smoke it yourself or should I help you?" the staff asked.

"I'll draw it myself." Xie Luoshu rubbed his hands, drew nine cards and handed them to the staff.

The staff turned over nine cards: Shrimp × 1, Broccoli × 3, Carrot × 1, Houttuynia cordata × 2, Egg × 1, Canned herring × 1.

When Xie Luoshu saw the Houttuynia cordata, his heart shuddered. When he saw that the last card was canned herring, Xie Luoshu felt that he was not doing well.

"Ah!" Zou Jiayan jumped up from his chair. "No, why are there still bugs?"

"This is silkworm pupae." The staff member didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's delicious when fried."

Zou Jiayan took a few steps back and shook his head: "No, no, no, let me go! I'm afraid of insects!"

"It's okay, it's okay." The staff member almost couldn't hold back his laughter, "You just drew one, you didn't touch it."

"I'll run into it in the next one!" Zou Jiayan screamed, "I don't want it! Who is so nice as to eat silkworm pupae so early in the morning?"

[Hahaha! My family members are laughing so hard! Zou Jiayan jumped up from his chair immediately.]

[Zou Jiayan! Pay attention to your image! You are a star! An idol! An idol! Help...]

[I’m dying of laughter. I’ve already given up. Since the second episode started, Zou Jiayan has let loose (囧)]

[But! The silkworm pupa zundoo is delicious! Especially when it is freshly fried! The shell is crispy! Very fragrant!]

[No, silkworm pupa?! Is it the silkworm pupa I understand?]

[Don't doubt it, it's just... I can't do it! NONONO! I can't do it when I see the silkworm pupa like that! I can't get over it!]

[I said it looked scary, but it was really delicious, so I ate it with my eyes closed.]

[No, no, no! Just thinking about it is so scary!]

[Xie Ge won the Houttuynia cordata and canned herring! His family was shocked! What did the program crew prepare?! (Screaming)]

[I can understand the herring, but canned herring? Hello? Are the show crew really not kidding?]

[Mr. Gu is indeed Mr. Gu, he drew the king of fruits, durian, hahaha! Actually it’s not that bad, but I can’t help laughing when I think of a boss holding a durian.]

[Stinky tofu, stinky mandarin fish? No, this is breakfast! Breakfast! What's the point? But it's really funny hahaha.]

[Why does it stink? When I open it, the whole house will stink. Help! I can already imagine that scene!]

"Congratulations! One for Houttuynia cordata and two for Broccoli!" The staff member handed the cards to Xie Luoshu, "Draw five more."

Xie Luoshu took the card with trembling fingers. Zhe Er Gen…hiss, he had never eaten it, but he had seen it online and heard that…those who love it love it to death, while those who don’t love it are discarded like grass. The taste is very…amazing.

Besides, he is also afraid of insects. It is okay if he encounters them in real life, as long as his hands and feet shake, the insects will go away. But, cooking with insects is not a good idea!

When Xie Luoshu thought of that scene, he got goosebumps all over his body.

Xie Luoshu asked, "Well, how are you doing?"

"It's OK." The staff member was ambivalent.

"Then you help me smoke." Xie Luoshu made up his mind.

"How about I draw three and you count the remaining two?" The staff member thought about it. If he drew something bad, it would be bad.

"Okay, then I'll be at the front and the back."

"Okay, front and back." The staff member looked experienced and drew five cards swiftly.

Before or after? It's pretty easy to say.

The moment he flipped the cards, Xie Luoshu breathed a sigh of relief: 2 shrimps, 1 carrot, 2 eggs, 1 can of herring, 2 tomatoes, and 1 rose.

Roses? Xie Luoshu was puzzled. Although he knew it should be edible roses, the production team was... too playful.

Fortunately, there were shrimps, tomatoes and eggs. Xie Luoshu breathed a sigh of relief: "Before and after."

"Okay." Seeing that Xie Luoshu quickly integrated into the situation, the staff relaxed a little.

The third draw: Carrot × 3, canned herring × 2, tomato × 1, rose × 2, toast × 1, etc.

"Hiss..." Xie Luoshu and the staff took a breath at the same time.

"I'm sorry, Teacher Xie." The staff member said in a low voice.

"Why should I apologize?" Xie Luoshu smiled, "I chose this card."

Wow~ Mom, it’s great to meet Xie Luoshu! When she first entered the industry, she heard many seniors tell her not to have any filters for these stars and not to believe the things on the Internet, because they are all personas and many of them are acting. It’s great to meet a truly good star who is consistent in appearance and inside!

Fortunately, she met Xie Luoshu! Lucky for her family.

In the end, Xie Luoshu obtained a total of 2 Houttuynia cordata, 3 broccoli, 2 shrimps, 2 eggs, 4 tomatoes, 2 canned herrings, 2 roses, 3 toasts, and 2 flour.

When redeeming the items, the staff also praised Luo Shu for his good luck: "Thank you, Mr. Xie, you have good luck. Except for the canned herring and Houttuynia cordata, everything else is good."

"Thank you." Xie Luoshu asked, "Is this calculated by kilogram?"

"Herba Zingiberensis, broccoli, shrimp, roses, and flour are sold by the pound, one card for one pound. Eggs and tomatoes are sold by the piece, canned herrings are sold by one card per box, and toast is sold by one card per bag." The staff member said as he exchanged the items, "Hold them carefully, they are a bit heavy."

"Okay, thank you." The first thing Xie Luoshu did after receiving it was to smell the Houttuynia cordata. Hiss... this smell, the smell of Houttuynia cordata is extremely impactful. As soon as he got close, a strong fishy smell went straight into his nose, like a unique smell mixed with the smell of fish and soil. It was so intoxicating.

What can you do with Houttuynia cordata? And canned herring. Xie Luoshu just felt overwhelmed.

"Xie Ge..." Zou Jiayan pinched a plastic bag between two fingers and stretched out his arm to move the plastic bag as far away from him as possible. "I'm relying on you!"

"Ah?" Xie Luoshu was confused. Damn, you're relying on me?

"No!" Director Zhu said, "You have to do it yourself."

"You didn't say that just now! You just said that all the ingredients you drew must be used up." Zou Jiayan reacted immediately, "That's right! You only said that you have to use them up but you didn't say that you have to eat them! It's too late, you can't change it now."

Xie Luoshu's eyes lit up: "Yes!"

"Xiaoyan is right." Liu Ruotong nodded repeatedly, "You are the director, you can't change the rules at the last minute."

"Okay, okay." Director Zhu had no choice but to nod.

"Is there a kitchen available?" Gu Yejin frowned as he looked at the durian in his hand. "You can't ask us to cook in our own house."

"Yeah, yeah." Bai Xueling agreed, "The children will be woken up later. And these things are so... smelly."

"Of course." Director Zhu waved his hand, "We have prepared an open-air kitchen for everyone!"

Then a group of staff brought in a table, on which were all kinds of stoves, pots and kitchen supplies.

"Stay here?" Zou Jiayan twitched his lips. "Where's the water? Where can we wash our hands and vegetables?"

"What's the hurry?" Director Zhu said.

Then the staff brought two large buckets of water and connected them to the taps. There was also a large basin underneath for waste water: "This is tap water, and this is drinking water."

Everyone was stunned.

“Good (/) good (V) good (V), awesome…” Zou Jiayan applauded.

[Oh my god! The director team is really working hard.]

[I always feel like I'm just looking for trouble. It's a mess, even worse than yesterday.]

[I am really impressed. Yesterday, I didn’t do anything. I said it was too boring. Today, I said I was looking for something to do. Have you watched other variety shows? If you have, you will know that variety shows are all about looking for something to do.]

[lgdl, today was okay, I thought it was quite interesting hahaha! There were lots of jokes in the morning, and it wasn’t too tiring. On the contrary, the staff might be a little tired.]

[It's just my nose that's hurt hahaha, it's okay, it's okay, it won't stink after a while! ]
