After the false eyelash incident, the director finally explained the rules for the day.
“Next, you need to find your own transportation and reach the accommodation we’ve specially arranged for your first night. If you complete the task and arrive at the accommodation within the stipulated time, we will reward you with dinner tonight.”
“Find our own transportation?” Leng Yuanzhi asked. “Any kind of transportation is fine?”
“Yes.”
Si Ying pondered: “My two legs count as transportation, right?”
“As long as you can walk there.”
Si Ying: “?”
“Where’s the destination?”
The production team sent the location to the guests’ phones provided by the show.
Si Ying took a look and went numb.
“Fifteen kilometers?!”
She looked down at her high heels again.
Well, the production team wanted her to walk until her legs broke.
“Let’s wait here for a while, Qiuci and I will go find a suitable mode of transportation.” Jiang Nanxi didn’t want Xia Zhiyan to walk so far in high heels.
“I’ll go with you,” He Xi said.
Ruan Qiuci didn’t want to take him at all, but in front of so many people, she couldn’t directly refuse. She maintained a smile on her face, while cursing internally.
Men!
Why did she have to appear on a variety show with a man!
The younger generation volunteered to help search, and the older generation didn’t have any reason to refuse, so they had to give them many reminders to be careful, pay attention to safety, and return early.
Before leaving, Jiang Nanxi asked Xia Zhiyan: “Sister, is there anything you want?”
“What?”
“A car, an electric scooter, or…?”
Xia Zhiyan teased her: “Couldn’t it be a tractor?”
Jiang Nanxi also laughed: “Okay, I understand.”
Si Ying joked from the side: “This sisterly love is deep. Little Xi, don’t be too partial, don’t you want to ask us?”
“Then Sister Si Ying, what kind do you want?”
Si Ying said: “I don’t want a tractor, I’d prefer a four-wheeled vehicle.”
Jiang Nanxi: “Sister, tractors also have four wheels.”
Si Ying: “…”
“That’s not what I meant!”
Jiang Nanxi: “Okay, Sister, I understand what you mean.”
【Are you two speaking riddles?】
【Si Ying is so funny hahahahaha!!!】
【Our Nan Nan is still so caring! As expected of the little mother of the team! She takes such good care of her sisters!】
After bidding farewell to the older sisters, Jiang Nanxi took Ruan Qiuci towards the town.
Halfway there, He Xi suggested: “Why don’t we split up? We can contact each other by phone if necessary.”
“This way, we’ll have a higher chance of finding something.”
Jiang Nanxi: “Okay.”
Ruan Qiuci chuckled internally.
She knew that He Xi was probably planning to find transportation by himself, then show off to the older sisters, and then belittle her and Jiang Nanxi.
“Then I’ll go this way,” He Xi pointed to a lively road leading to the town center. “Is that okay?”
Ruan Qiuci was unhappy.
She was about to retort sarcastically, but Jiang Nanxi calmly touched Ruan Qiuci’s arm.
“Okay,” Jiang Nanxi said, “Goodbye.”
She pulled Ruan Qiuci’s sleeve and turned towards a more secluded path.
After walking away, Ruan Qiuci whispered: “Why did you agree to him? There are clearly more cars on that side.”
“It’s fine,” Jiang Nanxi said, “There are more cars, but the money is in my hands.”
She patted her pants pocket.
In her slightly workwear-style pants was a thick envelope containing the travel expenses, two thousand two hundred and twenty-two yuan.
Ruan Qiuci immediately understood.
She gave Jiang Nanxi a thumbs-up.
“High-level, you’re still the best.”
【Hahahaha!!!】
【I was wondering why Nan Nan agreed so readily!】
【The confidence of the little travel manager~ SKR~ it’s so smooth~】
Jiang Nanxi took Ruan Qiuci further in.
This road was more open, surrounded by fields, with occasional rural self-built houses standing by the roadside, mostly locked, or only occupied by the elderly. Even if there were vehicles, the elderly wouldn’t rent them out.
They didn’t watch TV, didn’t chase stars, let alone follow talent shows.
They didn’t know who Jiang Nanxi and Ruan Qiuci were.
Seeing two young girls knocking on the door, their first reaction was vigilance.
Jiang Nanxi and Ruan Qiuci were turned away twice.
Under the hot afternoon sun, Ruan Qiuci was sweating.
She wanted to say they should rest, but Jiang Nanxi showed no intention of resting. Being so strong-willed, she would never suggest resting first, so she could only endure the heat and follow Jiang Nanxi.
Fortunately, after much searching, they finally found a place that could rent vehicles.
There were even two cars.
Ruan Qiuci was overjoyed, calling the older sisters: “Sisters, we found a car.”
Si Ying answered the phone and said: “Hey hey, we also found a car here.”
“Ah?”
“He Xi said he just borrowed a four-wheeled vehicle, enough to seat all of us. Come back quickly. The sun is so strong, don’t get sunburned.”
“Okay, sister.”
When Ruan Qiuci hung up, she was a little confused. She told Jiang Nanxi the situation, her expression now a little unhappy.
Losing to He Xi, who could be happy?
Jiang Nanxi remained silent, talked to the owner, and then, at the owner’s enthusiastic invitation, rode in a small car back.
When they returned to the filming location, He Xi was already there.
When he saw Jiang Nanxi and Ruan Qiuci getting off a dilapidated three-wheeled electric cart, a look of smugness and disdain appeared on his face.
“This is the car you found?” He Xi said.
Ruan Qiuci: “What about yours?”
He Xi: “My brother said he’ll be here soon. Why don’t you all ride in the car I found?”
“No need,” Ruan Qiuci said with a smile, “The three-wheeled car is fine for Nan Nan and me.” “I’ll go with them,” Xia Zhiyan said, “The kids worked hard to find this.”
Tang Wanning chuckled: “Then I’ll ride the three-wheeled one too.”
Si Ying was surprised: “Four of you, can you all fit?”
The woman who drove the three-wheeled cart spoke in a local dialect: “You can fit! You can fit! How could you not fit?!”
She quickly opened the back door of the cart: “Isn’t it this wide!”
Tang Wanning glanced, and yes, it was quite wide.
It could fit two slender female celebrities.
However, for the sake of shipping CP, this was nothing.
A little squeeze, and there would be both sugar and seats.
Tang Wanning had made up her mind.
Although she still missed the air conditioning in a four-wheeled car, shipping CP was more important.
Seeing this, Si Ying could only say: “Then you go first, we’ll come later.”
“It’s coming, it’s coming,” He Xi received a text message, he was overjoyed, “The car I found is here!”
The next second, everyone smelled a strange odor.
Too strange, hard to describe.
In short, it made people feel nauseous.
Jiang Nanxi immediately covered Xia Zhiyan’s mouth and nose, then pinched her own nose.
With this smell, the car He Xi found gradually revealed its true form.
An open-top four-wheeled pickup truck, with an old customer on board.
A large, plump pig.
The strange smell everyone smelled was from the pig’s farts.
【Damn!】
【I really didn’t expect this development!】
【He Xi, is this the car you said could fit everyone?】
【To the person above, he didn’t say anything wrong.】
He Xi’s face immediately turned awkward: “Brother, this is—”
The brother smiled honestly: “The car you wanted, four-wheeled, I brought it over.”
“As agreed, twenty yuan per person, I’ll give you a ride.”
Hearing this, Si Ying was about to faint.
They still had to pay?!
She gritted her teeth, thinking of just walking there herself.
Jiang Nanxi stepped forward: “Sister Si Ying and Grandma Leng, why don’t you come with us?”
Si Ying felt this was a lifeline, saving her from a difficult situation, but she still had some reason: “Your car won’t fit, right?”
Jiang Nanxi smiled gently: “The auntie’s house has another car, she can’t drive it over by herself, and Qiuci and I don’t have driver’s licenses, so we had to come in the three-wheeled cart first. Sister Si Ying, can you drive?”
“I can!” Si Ying shouted, “I have a driver’s license!”
Even if she couldn’t, she would pretend she could!!
Ruan Qiuci was confused: “How come I didn’t know?”
“When you went to the restroom, the auntie told me.”
Ruan Qiuci: “Oh~”
Regardless, seeing He Xi’s slapped-in-the-face expression, she was in a good mood.
So this is how simple happiness can be!
The driver who came in the car was unhappy, saying to He Xi: “Little brother, I came all the way for you. You won’t let me go for nothing, right?”
He Xi was in a difficult position.
Jiang Nanxi smiled and took out a red banknote from her pocket, handing it to He Xi: “Go, here’s the money.”
“Oh, remember the change.”
He Xi took the money, for the first time feeling that he might as well not have it.
So that’s how it was decided.
He Xi took the car he found.
The others took the transportation Jiang Nanxi found.
Before leaving, Si Ying was a little worried: “Nan Nan, this car is pretty good, how much did it cost?”
“Don’t worry, Sister, the auntie is nice, it’s free.”
Si Ying breathed a sigh of relief.
“Then Leng Laoshi and I will drive, you really aren’t coming?”
“Why don’t Sister Xia and Wanning Jie take the car, I’ll accompany Nan Nan,” Ruan Qiuci said thoughtfully.
The car has five seats, and there are six women. They couldn’t all fit, someone had to go separately. Of course, there was no reason to ask the seniors to ride the three-wheeled cart, and it was impossible to leave Jiang Nanxi alone to take the air-conditioned car, so Ruan Qiuci made the decision.
“Yes, let’s do it this way. Sister, Wanning Jie, you take that one.” Jiang Nanxi approved.
Xia Zhiyan was about to say something when she heard Jiang Nanxi say: “Sister, your waist hurts, the three-wheeled cart is inconvenient. The car is more comfortable.”
Xia Zhiyan: Oh.
What does it mean to pick up a stone and hit your own foot?
She learned today.
In the car, Xia Zhiyan looked out, the auntie driving the three-wheeled cart at breakneck speed, her movements fierce.
Tang Wanning chuckled: “Isn’t this a young couple’s date scene?”
Xia Zhiyan was too lazy to care about her nonsense.
Si Ying sat in the driver’s seat, motionless for a long time.
Xia Zhiyan asked: “What’s wrong, Si Ying?”
Si Ying: “Cough, how do I start this car?”
“Don’t you have a driver’s license?!” Tang Wanning was shocked.
Si Ying: “Having a driver’s license and not knowing how to drive, is that a conflict?”
Tang Wanning: “…”
“Is it still possible for me to take the three-wheeled cart?”
