Chapter 495 - 495: In The Afternoon, In Their Own Yard
“I mean, it will be fun at home.”
“You can ask Brother Xuanxuan. I don’t care anyway.”
“Brother Xinxin, does that mean you agree? Great!” said Li Zekai.
Li Zekai turned to Li Zexuan, only to see Li Zexuan burying himself in the blankets and pretending to be asleep.
“Big brother, you’re pretending to sleep again. If you don’t want to, just say no. Why act like this?” Li Zexin complained.
Li Zexuan slowly poked his head out from the blanket. “Do you even need to ask? I’m already an adult, and adults need their own private space.”
“Alright. When we get back, Li Zekai and I’ll be living together. Don’t you be jealous.”
“Brother Xinxin, I’ve thought about it. We should each have our own rooms. I also need privacy now.” Li Zekai suddenly changed his mind.
“Why does a little kid like you need privacy?”
“I can’t tell you about it. Goodnight, I’m going to sleep,” Li Zekai said as he lay on the bed and covered himself with the blanket.
After muttering to himself for a moment and getting no response, Li Zexin had no choice but to go to sleep as well.
The next day, everyone woke up early.
Bai Xue and her family distributed the food they had brought to each household.
Amidst the thanks from everyone, Bai Xue said, “I should be thanking you for being willing to taste the food from my home.”
Xia MO and Tao Jingyuan, who were Bai Xue’s biggest fans, opened the packages and enjoyed the food with relish.
The livestream started at eight o’clock, and the broadcast first played a song, followed by an announcement that there were no tasks in the morning. However, all the guests were required to be in their own yards at one o’clock in the afternoon.
The guests started talking with each other after the announcement.
Lin Wan whispered, “Does this mean we can’t visit each other in the afternoon?”
“Hmm, do you think they’re going to give us something? Maybe we have to collect it ourselves,” Li Yanchen said without much thought.
“It’s possible.”
At Wheatley’s house.
“Do the kids have to stay home too?” Wheatley asked as she ate the whole wheat bread.
“Everyone, including the kids,” Nannan said gently.
“Okay.”
At Xiao Yi’s house, Xiao Yi didn’t usually like to visit others, so the announcement didn’t really matter to him. He had planned to stay at home all day anyway.
At Feifei’s house, Feifei wasn’t too happy.
“Mom, can’t I go out to play in the afternoon?” he asked.
“It should only be for a little while.”
“Alright, I made plans with my brother and sister to go fight some imaginary monsters today,” Feifei grumbled.
“Don’t worry, Feifei, there will definitely be time for you to play,” Zheng Kuo said to his son as he patted his shoulder.
“Okay, Dad.”
At Tutu’s house, the first thing the boy thought of was that he couldn’t go out to play.
He lowered his head sadly. “Dad, it’s just the two of us at home. Won’t it be boring if we can’t go out?”
Su Wei patted his son’s head. “You and I can play games together.”
“Okay.”
At Bai Xue’s house, Qi Yue nodded in agreement when she heard the announcement.
“Mom, can you guess why we have to stay home in the afternoon?”
“I guess it’s to test everyone’s self-control… to see if they will follow orders seriously.”
“Makes sense! Then, I definitely won’t go out.”
In the production office, the staff had already coordinated and were preparing to welcome the owner of Lan Village in the afternoon.
Many villagers from Lan Village who had watched the livestream in the hotel had a lot to say to the guests from the city.
They also wanted to thank these people for bringing Lan Village back to life.
During this time, with the care of the butler, over twenty elderly people learned to use smartphones. They had never imagined that their hometown could be so beautiful.
“Director, we discussed with the hotel’s butler. Can the elderly villagers return to the village at noon and then go home at one o’clock?”
“Yes.”
“Great.” “Also, let them finish their lunch early, so they won’t go hungry.”
“Okay.”
At the hotel, the elderly villagers were sunbathing together in the courtyard on the first floor.
“This Zekai kid is quite something,” the village chief said.
“He’s indeed not bad, but I prefer that chubby kid who always plays with him,” Grandma Zhang said.
“I like Xinxin. He’s the one who stayed at my house,” Auntie Wang said.
“Grandpa Liu, are you saying you had a high IQwhen you were young? How is that related to Xiao Yi?”
“Isn’t it all about games? One on the computer and the other in real life,” said Grandpa Liu.
“I think Wheatley is the most charming of them all. She speaks so sweetly.”
“Yes. Wheatley is very eloquent.”
The elderly villagers talked about their favorites.
“We’ll be meeting them in the afternoon. I want to take the sunflowers I personally picked and give them to the guests.”
“Auntie Wang, I didn’t prepare anything. What should I do?” Auntie Qin asked.
“I’m going to do my own thing. You do your own.” Auntie Wang didn’t care if others had prepared anything or not.
“Our family has local specialties, right? We’ll see what they like at that time and give it to them, ” Grandpa Song suggested.
“That’s true. They all say they like rural specialties.”
“That being said, we really need to thank them for bringing attention to Lan
Village. Otherwise, we would just be forgotten.”
“If you want to express your gratitude, do it in person.”
In Lan Village in the morning, everyone had free time. After visiting each other’s houses, the first thing everyone talked about was which house they would go to for lunch.
Only after the meal arrangements were settled did they begin to think about why the production team had asked everyone to stay at home in the afternoon.
Children always seem to forget. A few of them gathered together and played with marbles.
The adults sat together and talked while basking in the sun.
Their voices were not loud, but the people in the livestream room could faintly hear them.
[Don’t the guests know what’s happening in the afternoon?]
[Wasn’t there a script? Could it really be all live? Nothing was planned?]
[@Previous Poster, is this your first time watching the show? There was never really a script. Many tasks are arranged by the production team on the spot.] [Could a mysterious person be arriving?]
[It’s impossible! If a mysterious person was joining the show, the guests would all be gathering at the village entrance, not at their own homes.]
[Stop guessing. Listen to what Xuanxuan is saying. Why do I hear him say that he doesn’t want to share a room with Xinxin? Did they fight?]
[@Previous Poster, you must have really good ears to hear all that.]
[Xuanxuan and his brothers are on very good terms. They couldn’t be fighting.] Li Zexuan and Xiao Yi talked.
“Li Zexin is becoming more and more dependent. He said last night that he wanted to share a room with me when we go back as if I would want that.” “Yes. That kid is getting out of hand. Should I kick him out of the team?”
“That’s not necessary. Although he’s immature, he’s not a bad person. He is also very hardworking. ”
“Big brother, why are you saying bad things about me behind my back?” “What did I say?” Li Zexuan feigned innocence.
“Wind God, you said it, didn’t you? You said you wanted to kick me out of the team! I’m your mentee, but you didn’t even protect me. Hmph..
Li Zexin crossed his arms in a huff. “Can he be kicked out?”
Li Zexin shook his head desperately..
