A moment.

Jiang Lingye looked away.

"fine."

His stinginess was mainly directed at himself. He had been poor all his life and was terrified of poverty. Even after he made money, he didn't think about spending it freely, but rather about saving it.

Stock up, stock up.

Like a little hamster, it painstakingly and gradually accumulates its wealth.

Seeing my own achievements fills my heart with happiness and a sense of accomplishment.

then……

One day, a hand reached out and took away everything he had accumulated.

Will you be sad?

inevitable.

Will they learn from this experience and spend all their money at once next time?

It seems... not.

At first, he thought that they were all family, and it would be good if the money he earned could help them. But later... he thought about how to hide things more deeply and better.

Then he was ruthlessly dug out again and again, and his cave where he stored things was made a mess.

Until you become numb.

In the end, it seemed he didn't even know how to spend money properly.

But this older sister is different; she's really good at this!

Are you naturally beautiful? Yes, then you should use the best of everything to highlight and maintain your beauty for longer.

He's still doing too poorly, so he should try harder...

The boy was adept at self-manipulation, and quickly composed himself, filled with anticipation for his future days of being "worked like a slave"...?

This time, the hamster willingly moves and hoards things in its tiny burrow.

Take another look.

Isn't the person moving these things none other than the mouse itself?

So cute~

Jiang Lingye voluntarily withdrew from the competition, and Tang Yeli received a "head pat" from Cen Xuyi. Director Guo clearly stated, "Goods sold should not be returned!"...

This made the group give up their idea of ​​taking Qin Chaoyue's new shoes.

Cen Xuyi comforted him, "If we have more money, we can buy another pair and exchange them as we like!"

They've been eating together a lot lately, and they've gotten to know each other better, so Qin Chaoyue has started to flirt with her.

"Where are you coaxing the child?"

Cen Xuyi grabbed her still bewildered cousin Tang Yeli and pulled her over, laughing.

"The child is here."

Tang Yeli: Huh?

*

The introduction of the new guest took up a little time.

The group was finally about to set off in a grand procession, and what awaited them was—

Director Guo has already returned to the van that accompanied the production crew.

He sat in front of the monitor, eating spicy snacks, drinking ice water, and enjoying the breeze from a small electric fan, yet he was still sweating profusely from the spiciness. He was truly sweating profusely.

"That's right, I've sacrificed so much to make this show a success! I couldn't sleep at night! My hair was falling out in clumps!!"

Is it tough? Is it tiring?

"No rainbow without rain! -- Xiaojia, pour some water!!!"

As he spoke, he put another spicy snack into his mouth.

So delicious!

……

A bullock cart appeared before the guests.

In the village, we should naturally use the village's mode of transportation. Do we still expect to travel in a car as respectably as we did when we arrived?

Don't even think about it!

After all, they had been staying in the mountains for more than two days, and the guests were quite familiar with the environment. As for the two newcomers, they had also watched the live broadcast before they arrived.

When they saw that the mode of transportation was an oxcart, no one seemed particularly surprised.

Except for... Xu Mucheng.

She had ridden in an oxcart yesterday and was the most experienced among them. Moreover, the driver of the cart she was riding in today was Zhang Bairong, whom she had met yesterday.

"Brother Bairong~"

[Who understands? Now, whenever I hear Xu Mucheng call me "brother," my heart skips a beat.]

Xu Mucheng looked over with a smile. She naturally remembered the names of her "fish," and this was a new one she had raised just yesterday.

But unexpectedly, Zhang Bairong, who had been chatting and laughing with her yesterday and seemed quite fond of her when she returned, was gone.

When I saw her again, she had a cold, expressionless face.

Xu Mucheng stood there blankly, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Zhang Bairong stated the reason directly and coldly: "Zhang Shushu is my sister."

"I'm sorry, Brother Bairong, I didn't know..."

Xu Mucheng never thought he had done anything wrong.

She had been a little flustered when she first realized that the two men shared the surname Zhang, but after a night, she had completely forgotten about it.

That's why she felt no guilt when she saw Zhang Bairong, because she simply couldn't remember that such a thing had happened!

Xu Mucheng tried to act pitiful again, but when Zhang Bairong saw Xu Mucheng on his dark face, he was filled with disappointment.

He didn't come last night, but later he heard about Xu Mucheng's actions from his family.

Two items.

I just met a girl I really like, and her younger sister whom I've watched grow up...

He naturally chose the latter!

"Just as they said, you're unrepentant. Don't call me that anymore, or my sister won't recognize me as her brother!"

At this moment, Luo Zibai, like a vengeful ghost, crept out from behind.

"Mumu, where did you meet this good brother?"

Qin Chaoyue watched from afar as Xu Mucheng dealt with a fish that had escaped and another that had been raised incorrectly.

Although she didn't know exactly what had happened, she could tell from the young man driving the carriage that something was amiss.

It seems that at some point, Xu Mucheng's so-called "heartthrob" but actually only effective on "men" had activated again, and she was hooked up with another one.

The direction of the variety show now is quite different from what I originally dreamed of.

Because of her "troublemaking," Xu Mucheng suffered repeated setbacks, and even her aura deviated somewhat, or perhaps it was triggered passively, leading to this incident.

Even Qin Chaoyue couldn't help but sigh.

Xu Mucheng was probably starving for a long time, and now she could eat anything—not that the men in the mountains were bad, but from Xu Mucheng's perspective as the "female lead," she wouldn't have given them a second glance before.

On the contrary, these two new guests who came today...

So far, Xu Mucheng has overturned two fish in his fishpond.

One of them was the one who prepared breakfast for Xu Mucheng the next day; she has now lost her job.

The other is Zhuo Jiahan, who actually sang "Tears Behind Bars".

Strictly speaking, neither of these two qualities ranks high in Xu Mucheng's pool, and they can't even be considered.

Of the ones who have appeared so far, only Luo Zibai is somewhat better.

But I don't know if he's been driven crazy by Xu Mucheng. Now he both loves and hates her, and he's already showing signs of becoming a bit crazy.

It was also a Gu that Xu Mucheng raised himself.

the remaining……

Qin Chaoyue's gaze fell once again on the new guest, or rather, on Shen Wenyu, whom she had just helped out.

Don't be fooled by Luo Zibai's energetic antics. This "brother" who initially brought Xu Mucheng to the variety show is actually not even ranked high in Xu Mucheng's vast fishpond.

In other words, he appeared early and served as Xu Mucheng's guide, making him a high-level sycophant.

In the latter half of her hazy dream, another person appeared who was quite famous in the entertainment industry. This person admired Xu Mucheng and was in love with her. Even though they had no official relationship, he still willingly helped Xu Mucheng a lot.

That person... was a young and accomplished movie star.
