Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Daddy Zhu

Tourists often say that the scenery in Jiang Province needs no filters; it’s breathtaking straight from the camera.

Like a series of oil paintings.

Blue skies, white clouds, meadows with wildflowers, lakes and streams, herds of cattle and sheep, each plant and tree, all are the most beautiful artworks granted by nature.

The homestay is situated at a higher elevation, offering a view of cattle and sheep below, and snow-capped mountains and desert landscapes above.

The vast beauty of the country unfolds before the eyes.

Mu Ran, operating a drone and listening to the cheers of adults and children around, feels the gentle, cool breeze, and becomes even more eager to capture the scenic beauty of the motherland.

The beauty of the motherland.

Should be seen by more people.

The show’s crew, noticing that the audience enjoys the scenery, also airs the aerial shots Mu Ran captured with the drone, providing an immersive experience for the viewers.

Everyone basked in the beauty of the scenery for a while before heading to the location where the show would host dinner.

Yang Yingying said to everyone, “Tonight’s dinner is very sumptuous. So what do we need to do to earn our dinner?”

“Play games!”

The kids responded enthusiastically.

“Yes, play games. The rules are simple. We’ll be doing tie-dye. Does everyone know what tie-dye is?”

“No, we don’t!”

Watching their interaction, Mu Ran chuckles softly, as Yang Yingying seems like a kindergarten teacher introducing a group of children to something new.

After her introduction.

The staff also brought out tie-dye materials and even invited a local tie-dye cultural heritage inheritor to teach the kids how to tie-dye.

The children could choose what to tie-dye, and Chu Xijin chose an adult short-sleeve shirt.

To give to his aunt.

The color chosen was blue.

Because the tie-dye master only brought blue, in a way, he had no other choice.

Here, it gets dark very late. It’s now five in the afternoon with clear skies.

Aside from Xiong Zunxiang, who is like a child sneaking food in class, occasionally popping snacks into his mouth, puffing his cheeks, the children were all seriously engaged in their tasks.

The adults, of course, had their own tasks, like milking cows and making milk tea.

Each wore a look of distress.

“The children are not part of the competition, but whatever amount of milk the adults can milk will determine the variety of local dishes they can earn, such as large plate chicken, Jiang Province’s fried rice noodles, hand-grab rice, baked buns, pulled noodles, lamb skewers, baked rice, meatball soup, old yogurt, spicy chicken, rack lamb, crocked meat, and roasted pigeon.”

With each dish name she mentions.

Xiong Zunxiang’s eyes lit up brighter, and as she finished, he had already run up to Yang Yingying, head tilted up, hand raised, “Sister Director, I can milk the cows, I can milk a lot.”

Xiong Guobing wiped his face with his hand.

Embarrassing!

Yang Yingying gently refused, “No, you can only ask your dad to work hard.”

Xiong Zunxiang turned to his dad, tugging at his pant leg, “Dad, can you work hard and bring some food back for me?”

“I’ll try my best. You should go and complete your own task first.” Xiong Guobing pushed him back to the children’s area, then turned back, speaking in a lower tone to the crew, “I have a bit of OCD, so I won’t participate.”

[Hahaha, over the top, haha, little foodie Brother Xiangxiang might just cry.]

[Having a kid who can eat is such a relief.]

[Can’t we just say that Xiong Guobing doesn’t want to milk the cows?]

…

The milking activity was inevitable, and Zhu Zhuting was the first to step up, “Let me give it a try; my goal is not high, second-to-last is fine.”

“Hahaha, that’s fine!” Xiong Guobing gave her a thumbs up.

Following the staff’s guidance, Zhu Zhuting began cautiously, her movements shaky, causing the staff to laugh, “It’s okay. The cows are very gentle. As long as you move correctly, they won’t kick you away.”

Zhu Zhuting: “…”

What if I get more nervous!

At this time, Xiong Guobing suddenly started reciting an advertisement script, as the sponsor’s ranch was nearby, indicating that the milk production environment was good and the quality high, “Zhu Zhuting, don’t worry, these are cows brought over by our sponsor. They won’t harm you.”

“Right, they won’t harm me.”

Zhu Zhuting gritted her teeth and gave it her all.

If it were a game, she might take it easy, but the sponsor’s ad must be done well.

[Sponsor, forever the best!]

[Dedicated Zhu Zhu!]

[So funny, working souls, Zhu Zhuting looks exactly like me when I’m typing out long paragraphs praising the company, numb!]

…

With each drop of milk falling into the metal bucket, Zhu Zhuting breathed a sigh of relief, having finally succeeded, she realized that after taking a step forward, it wasn’t so bad, and she seriously got to work.

Everyone applauded her.

Zhu Zhuting turned her head and gave a faint smile, “You all should give it a try too.”

Just as she turned her head, the cow suddenly kicked her, and there happened to be a stone on the ground.

Caught everyone completely off guard.

Zhu Zhuting’s head hit the stone!!!

Blood gushed out instantly, and everyone’s pupils contracted sharply, Mu Ran, being the closest, immediately rushed to her, calling the show’s doctor over.

Zhu Wenzhen saw her mom injured, ran crying, “Mom, are you okay?”

Zhu Zhuting felt a bit dizzy, and her vision went black intermittently. But knowing she was on camera, she put on a smile, waved at the camera, “I’m fine, I’m okay.”

[Sister Zhu is really, dedicated!]

[Is the crew scheming something? Why are there always so many unexpected incidents?]

[Live reality shows have this downside. If it were pre-recorded, they could edit it, but now there’s nothing they can do.]

…

The show’s doctor arrived swiftly. Zhu Wenzhen, in tears, asked for a phone, and the crew, in chaos, quickly handed her one.

Zhu Wenzhen called her dad, sobbing, “Dad, mom got hurt.”

“What happened? Weren’t you guys filming a show?”

“Mom got kicked by a cow, her head is bleeding. The doctor is checking her now. Dad, aren’t you on a business trip nearby? Can you come and see mom?” Zhu Wenzhen was panicking, desperately wanting her dad to come over.

Zhu Youhua hesitated for two seconds, then agreed, “Take good care of your mom, I’ll be right there.”

“Okay.” Zhu Wenzhen returned the phone to the staff, thanked them, and ran back to her mom’s side.

[Though I’m upset about Zhu Zhuting’s injury, I’m glad Zhu Youhua is coming over. Since their fight went viral, the couple hasn’t been seen together for a while.]

[I’m beginning to suspect they might be divorced.]

[Curious about Zhu Youhua’s reaction, raising hand.]

[A family reunion, the show crew is going to profit big time.]

[Every episode of this show somehow ends up trending unexpectedly.]

…

Initially, everyone was chastising the crew, but seeing Zhu Wenzhen inviting her dad over, they all perked up, more eager for the drama than concerned.

Even the crew seemed a bit excited.

Zhu Youhua, eh?

Though not the top streamer, he’s in the top five nationwide.

Half an hour later, a man in a blue shirt and black athletic pants arrived at the filming location.

His arrival was a spectacle in itself.

All eyes were on him.
