Chapter 44: That’s not what the experts said

"What? Weeds?"

Si Che was completely devastated: "You mean these are all weeds? Why are there so many weeds growing in the fields?"

Ji Sisi comforted him: "These are still small. They will grow up in a few days. Now that we have cleared the weeds, it will be time to clean them up."

The whole audience was silent. This was different from what the experts said.

Didn’t the experts say that farming is easy? Just plant the seeds with a machine, apply herbicides and pesticides, and then wait for the harvest?
Why is there so much grass? They don’t have to weed as long as they are recording the show, do they?

The director quickly said, "Don't worry, you can come to us to exchange herbicides before transplanting the watermelons."

Seeing the bright smiles on their faces, he reminded them: "But many of the seeds you bought cannot be sprayed with herbicides."

"Let's not talk about that for now and start working." Wen Biying said she was used to it and put on gloves.

The other members didn't say anything else. They just wanted to finish cleaning up as soon as possible so that they could leave work earlier.

"Director, I wonder if I can borrow two cows to help you?"

"No, the program team has prepared lunch for you today, so just focus on your work." The director looked at the live broadcast room. The scenery looked good. It was worthy of being the place he chose.

As the only male guest in the program group, Si Che felt that he had to do more work. He not only had to weed, but was also responsible for throwing the weeds away.

After running a few times, I was very tired.

He drank half a bottle of water, washed his face with the remaining half, and sat on the edge of the field to rest.

"Director, can't we invite two more guest stars? I don't have any other requirements, as long as they can do the job."
-
[Yes, other farming programs are all male, what kind of work can girls do? ]
-
[Let's find some male members. Zhang Yao from the last episode was pretty good, I think he can come back. (But that He Zhengxin doesn't need to be there)]
-
[What's wrong with girls? Some people in the comment section should stop hating girls too much, they also work hard. ]
-
【Just watch the show and don’t criticize it, okay? 】

The director looked at Si Che, who looked exhausted, and then looked at the comments in the live broadcast room.

He coughed twice, leaving everyone in suspense.

"I will consider this suggestion, but before I invite other members, you should also clear the weeds here."

Does he not want to find members? It's because the investment in this program is not enough.

It's fine if big stars don't like it, but small stars also think it's better to bring goods.
Before lunch, a few people managed to clear the weeds in the field, leaving only some grass roots. The village chief said they would use a rake to clean them out.

"Let's go back and eat first." Si Che was already extremely hungry and now he didn't even want to move a finger.

However, on the way back, the few people still set their eyes on the locust tree.

This fragrance is really irresistible.

"Let's pick some acacia flowers after dinner, shall we? They smell so good. I really want to taste them."

Zhao Jianwei was undoubtedly the one who was most interested in locust flowers, and she couldn't wait to pick them right now.

"Teacher Lan, have you ever eaten acacia flowers before?"

Lan Qin shook her head: "We only filmed for a few days at that time, and time was tight. Every day when I opened my eyes, I had to put on makeup, and after the filming, I didn't want to do anything else. But this time I have a chance to try what it tastes like."
-
[Are you talking about the drama X? It was filmed in the village. I watched it with my family. It was very good. I recommend everyone to watch it.]
-
【Teacher Lan Qin has gone through a lot of hardships to get to where she is today. Ten minutes on stage is the result of ten years of hard work off stage.】
-
[I really want to eat the acacia flowers from my hometown, but I can’t buy any here. ]
-
[When will Chi Ye and Chi Yue come back? I'm not used to being without them. ]

Lunch was prepared by the program team, with three dishes and one soup, simple home-cooked meals.

In order to prevent several people from getting food poisoning again, each person was given a book on food incompatibility and toxic foods that are difficult to distinguish.

The director reminded: "Everyone, remember to watch it during lunch break. There will be a surprise event waiting for you in two days." As for the surprise event, Ji Sisi remembered that it was mentioned in the plot.

But she couldn't remember anything after reading the book, so she threw it on the bed, waiting to use it to hypnotize herself when she couldn't sleep at night.

[Damn director, why did you release this book only now? My male protagonists are still in the hospital for examination.]

The crying voice of the system came from her mind, and Ji Sisi retorted: [The two of them didn’t get food poisoning because of the ingredients. It’s their own fault! Yes, that’s right! ]

system:【.】

"Who wants to go pick acacia flowers together?" Zhao Jianwei finished her meal first and couldn't wait any longer.

"I want to go!" It was also the first time that Ji Shengsheng saw locust flowers, and Sisi said they were delicious, so they must taste good.

Wen Biying, a new fan of wild vegetables, would naturally not miss it. "Take the vegetable basket? Put more food on it. Do you still need a stick? Let Si Che climb the tree directly."

Si Che: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

You definitely can't climb trees. There are thorns on locust trees. Climbing up is no big deal, but getting injured for locust flowers is not worth it.

Under the guidance of Ji Sisi, they made a hook that could hook down the branches of the locust tree.

It was difficult to master at the beginning, but after I became proficient, I could pick a bunch of locust tree branches in no time.

The air was filled with the fragrance of acacia flowers, and they carefully picked the acacia flowers into their vegetable baskets.

“It smells so good, it must be delicious.”

"I think so too. Let's eat this tonight. When will Chi Ye and the others come back?"

The director thought of the profound lesson that Ikeno and the other man had taught him, and asked the village chief again with concern.

"Village Chief, our acacia flowers are really edible, right? Are you sure you won't get poisoned?"

The village chief glanced at him and laughed, "Of course you can eat it! Not only can you eat it, you can even eat it raw."

As he said this, he plucked a handful from the side and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"Oh, no, no!"

The director reached out to stop him, but the village chief had already thrown the acacia flower into his mouth.

He took a step back and held the walkie-talkie tightly in his hand. If the village chief was in trouble, he could immediately ask the medical staff from the program team to come over.

Chewed and swallowed.
OK, everyone is fine.

The village chief waved his hand and said, "Director, don't worry. We have been eating this for many years. We can eat it steamed, fried, or even made into dumplings. It's so delicious."

The director nodded: "Okay, okay, then I feel relieved."

Before a few people had finished picking the fruits, they heard hurried footsteps not far away.

Ji Shengsheng suddenly thought of something and asked, "Does this tree have an owner? Should we tell someone before we pick the fruit?"

The other members also stood there in a daze, and from their expressions it was clear that they hadn't thought about this matter at all.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a group of middle-aged women surrounded them.
