Xiao 6:
"Really? It doesn't seem like it..."
Qiao Xi slapped his thigh. "Definitely! If you haven't been in love, you wouldn't understand."
"You've been in love?" Xiao 6 was instinctively shocked.
Thus, both fell silent.
After a while, Qiao Xi turned off Xiao 6's voice channel.
"Xiao 6, don't say hurtful things like that again."
Xiao 6:
"Just say there's nothing to it! Why blame me?"
On the other side, Ye Sisi's eyes wandered in shock. "I... I don't know... Shouldn't it be quite obvious?"
Obvious signs...
Yu Siyan sighed and leaned against the tree.
Indeed, it was obvious enough.
He had only realized it after almost being bitten by her.
"Qiao Xi!" At this moment, the director's assistant rushed over, "You need to go to the sow's delivery room! The villagers are causing a commotion!"
Qiao Xi bent down, weeding the vegetable patch, and said, "Why should I care?"
Assistant:
"How rude! Did the production team offend you?"
"Yes, the production team has been working hard to provide you with food these past days! Is this how you repay them?"
"Does she think she's so unique?"
"Yue, she's really just a typical girl."
"I think she's quite unique; don't be so harsh in the comments."
"To be honest, Qiao Xi looked bad yesterday, and she didn't follow the director's instructions all morning. Director Jin didn't even assign her tasks or give out the reward for the piglets born yesterday! It feels like a cold war, something's fishy."
"The villagers just want to talk to you; the translator's words aren't working! Teacher Qiao, please just go!"
The assistant pleaded.
"I'm not going!" Qiao Xi hoisted her hoe and walked away.
The next second, a crowd of people appeared behind her.
Director Jin tried to hold back the agitated villagers but couldn't.
Li Dazhuang, who had met Qiao Xi yesterday, was extremely agitated and started babbling to Qiao Xi.
The sow was delivered by Li Dazhuang himself and raised from birth. After much negotiation, he reluctantly agreed to lend the sow to the program with the help of the village midwife.
Yesterday, prompted by Qiao Xi, he intended to check on the sow but was obstructed. Feeling more and more uneasy, he climbed into the pig pen through a window early in the morning while the production team wasn't paying attention. What he saw made him furious!
Li Dazhuang: "She's breaking her promise! And even trying to hide it from me!"
Director Jin asked, "Qiao Xi, what did he say?"
"He said you're worse than pigs and dogs," Qiao Xi answered seriously.
Director Jin:
"She doesn't understand, but she can tell something's off!"
Director Jin, mindful of the camera, patiently said, "Please explain to him that we didn't do it on purpose. We'll do everything we can to help the sow and provide all the compensation we can."
At this moment, the translator arrived in a hurry.
Qiao Xi, speaking fluently in the local dialect, said, "They just want to eat pork, blah blah blah, what can you do about it?"
Translator: !!!
It was too late to stop her!
As soon as Qiao Xi finished speaking, all the villagers surged towards Director Jin, enraged!
Director Jin stumbled and shouted. Hats and megaphones were thrown on the ground, and she climbed the tree in a state of embarrassment, yelling at Qiao Xi, "Help us! They trust you! Only you can make a difference! Qiao Xi, are you going to watch them suffer and do nothing?"
"Of course, I won't watch and do nothing," Qiao Xi said, picking up the megaphone that Director Jin had dropped. She patted it and said, "I'll just add fuel to the fire. Villagers, go ahead!!!"
Director Jin, who had just had a glimmer of hope, saw the villagers get even more agitated by Qiao Xi's actions!
Director Jin's pants were being pulled, and she began to cry, "These ungrateful people! Qiao Xi, I admit my mistakes yesterday, and I apologize. Can you make them stop?"
Qiao Xi sat cross-legged on the ground, "I'm not worthy. I'm just an egg; I can't touch a stone. I'll leave the stone to deal with itself. I'm just here to play~"
Director Jin, breaking down, "Qiao Xi! I'm begging you!"
"Oh? Stones beg? Stones have become spirits? Interesting, let me take a video of you begging."
She took out her phone and started adjusting the angle.
The scene was already chaotic. Director Jin was being dragged down with a scream. On the other side, more villagers arrived in trucks, and the situation was about to escalate!
Director Jin screamed!
She knew she couldn't avoid it anymore and yelled into the camera, "Qiao Xi! I'll write an apology letter! I promise not to interfere with you again! Is that enough?! Not enough? Should I kneel and kowtow to you? I take back what I said yesterday, I'm really sorry! I was wrong! I shouldn't have said you were an egg hitting a stone! I also shouldn't have let people intentionally cause the sow to have difficulty in labor!"
As soon as she finished, Qiao Xi raised her hand.
The villagers immediately stopped and looked at her.
[Intentionally causing the sow to have difficulty in labor???]
[Heavens, production team, what are you doing!]
[I'm still in shock.]
[This show, it's something!]
[Even a script wouldn't dare to write this. I'm leaning towards it being real.]
[So yesterday, Qiao Xi saved the sow single-handedly, performed surgery, and spent the whole day resisting the production team? Hmm, I suddenly have a different opinion of her...]
[Don't be too moved; she might just really like pigs. She's probably gentler with pigs than with Yu Yingdi.]
Five minutes later, Director Jin, the assistant, and the midwife stood in front of Qiao Xi, bowing and reading out an apology letter that Qiao Xi had personally reviewed.
Across from them were all the villagers from Xicun.
Director Jin took a deep breath, "First, I must reflect on my beastly behavior! If there's a next time, I'll be struck by lightning! Lose my ass! Constipate for eight months! Gain fifty pounds! Go bald like Fifth Master! Always run out of toilet paper!! I, Jin Minmin, swear here!!"
A thunderclap sounded from the sky, just in time.
Director Jin: ?
Could it really be effective?
[Alright, I no longer believe this is scripted, hahahaha]
[Is this an apology letter or a curse letter? I mean, Qiao Xi, you're being a bit vengeful.]
[No wonder she wrote for so long earlier; she was clearly waiting for this hahahaha]
[Can't take it anymore, this is the first laugh of the day.]
[Never seen such a scene in a variety show before; this is truly a milestone for variety shows, 666.]
In the end, Qiao Xi said a few words to the villagers. They thanked her repeatedly and invited her to a feast at their homes the day after tomorrow before leaving.
Li Dazhuang even directly said, "If it weren't for you, my pig wouldn't have been saved! It's thanks to you! I have two more courtyards; you can stay there tonight! That way, your son won't be hungry or cold!"
He pointed to Yu Siyan's direction.
Yu Siyan, suddenly being mentioned, was a bit confused.
Qiao Xi nodded, "Alright, he's not very talkative, so I'll thank you on his behalf."
"No need, no need!" Li Dazhuang blushed, scratching his head, "It's not easy for you to bring such a big kid along!"
Originally, the production team had prepared a shabby house for Qiao Xi, but in the blink of an eye, all the team members were staying in grass huts while Qiao Xi and her team moved into a spacious courtyard.
Before entering, Qiao Xi specifically looked at the room arrangements and said to Yu Siyan, "You all will sleep in this room."
One room for girls, one room for boys.
Qiao Xi's indicated rooms were next to theirs.
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Siyan's dark eyes grew more complicated.
Alright, in consideration of her providing accommodation, tonight he would indulge her modest wish to stay just one wall away.
Yu Siyan entered the room.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Ninghuan heard Yu Yingdi tossing and turning and finally got up secretly, crouching in the corner to make a phone call.
The person on the other end of the line said something.
All Yu Siyan said was, "Hmm, basically confirmed."
"I'll clarify things with her tomorrow and refuse her."
