Chapter 738: Chapter 738: Can Brother Do It?
“Of course.” An Nuonuo smiled sweetly, “This is quite simple.”
As she spoke, her gaze wandered around.
She quickly found something.
She squatted down and pulled out several stalks of grass, each about fifty to sixty centimeters long.
“This is called bamboo grass because it’s as resilient as bamboo,” she explained.
“You can use this grass to fix the bamboo basket.”
As she said this, An Nuonuo, under the astonished eyes of Tian’er and many viewers,
used her nimble hands to repair the bamboo basket in just a few minutes.
“Wow, Sister Nuonuo, you’re so amazing,” said Tian’er, sincerely impressed.
This lady boss is too much, haha.
She’s already so strong in so many aspects, but she also has these unique skills.
Online, a bunch of comments from netizens were flooding in too.
But, as always, the most noticeable were from Jiang Xu.
[Ah, I can’t help it, my Nuonuo is just that outstanding.]
The crowd of netizens:
“This guy is showing off again.”
“Is there a way to block him already?”
“Damn, if I had met Nuonuo first, she would be my girlfriend by now.”
———
Not far away, there was a small ditch.
“Ah, look at all the little fish and shrimps, and there are crabs too!” Tian’er’s eyes lit up.
But she didn’t know how to start.
An Nuonuo placed the bamboo basket in the ditch.
She rolled up her pant legs.
Without minding the dirt, she jumped in.
She took some mud with her hands and filled the gaps on both sides of the basket.
Then she said to Tian’er, “You go to the front and find a stick to drive the fish and shrimp this way.”
“Okay.”
Tian’er quickly ran off.
But she didn’t use a stick; instead, she followed suit and jumped into the ditch.
Despite looking like an airheaded sweetie, she was actually quite smart.
The lady boss had already gone in; if she kept up appearances, she could forget about getting good resources in the future.
Her actions won the favor of many bystanders.
“Splash!”
An Nuonuo lifted the bamboo basket out of the water.
Tian’er came over to look and exclaimed in awe, “Wow, so many fish and shrimps, and crabs, Sister Nuonuo, you’re incredible.”
An Nuonuo smiled shyly, “It’s quite simple, anyone who has lived in the countryside for a few days can do it.”
In one go, she caught two to three pounds of fish and shrimp—today’s meat was secured.
The two continued to walk.
They passed a field that had been hoed.
A villager happened to be passing by.
An Nuonuo stepped forward and politely asked, “Hello, ma’am, may I ask whose sweet potato field this is?”
“It’s ours, what’s up, young lady?” the auntie replied with a friendly smile.
She felt very comfortable upon seeing An Nuonuo.
An Nuonuo said bashfully, “Auntie, could I possibly go into the field to see if there are any sweet potatoes left?”
In places where sweet potatoes were grown, there were often some left behind or not dug up.
As a child, An Nuonuo often went to other people’s harvested fields to search for these ‘missed ones.’
And in doing so, she had developed some expertise.
“Of course, there’s no problem at all.”
“Thank you, Auntie.”
With the owner’s approval, An Nuonuo immediately got to work.
Tian’er, not knowing what to do, could only play the role of a sidekick.
An Nuonuo walked around the field, stopping here and there.
Soon, she squatted down and started digging with a thick stick.
She unearthed a sweet potato the size of a palm.
“I’m really lucky,” An Nuonuo smiled as she spoke, “This sweet potato isn’t worm-infested; it’s edible.”
Tian’er and the watching audience were all stunned.
“How did you do that?”
“Um… although I’m a bit skeptical, I still have to ask, was this not pre-arranged?”
“To those above, from how skillfully An Nuonuo was catching fish and shrimp earlier, it’s clear she knows her stuff.”
“Exactly, I grew up in the countryside when I was young and often did these kinds of things; it’s not some incredible skill.”
“When I was young, I frequently used to steal corn from others to stack the kiln.”
Tian’er couldn’t just stand idly by.
She also found a stick and followed suit, digging around.
Believe it or not, she actually dug up a sweet potato.
She was so happy she almost took a bite right there and then.
Jiang Xu watched An Nuonuo on the screen do everything proficiently and with ease, her face showing a genuine smile.
He suddenly felt very glad that he had let her go.
She liked the countryside.
She became even happier in the village.
The scene switched to Jiang Xiaoyan and her group working at a resident’s home.
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Xu opened the Daily Headlines app and posted a tweet.
To help promote it.
Even without mixing personal feelings, this variety show definitely had the potential to be a hit.
The first episode had no advertisements.
By the end of tonight’s broadcast, it should attract a large number of advertisers.
It must be said, Jiang Xiaoyan did have something special.
The variety show’s main appeal was its leisure and authenticity.
So there were no game segments set up, nor any scheming or backstabbing.
Nowadays people face a lot of pressure at work, and after getting off work, they want to watch something relaxing.
The emergence of ‘Pastoral Life’ well satisfied everyone’s needs.
No need to look, soon there will be a ton of similar variety shows popping up.
The progress bar was more than halfway through.
In the video, the sky gradually darkened.
The camera shifted to the kitchen.
Several members gathered together.
Jiang Xiaoyan’s group had obtained a small bag of rice, five corns, a few eggplants, and some greens today.
Zhou Qingyue was separating the corn kernels.
Liu Ruyan was washing vegetables, and Tian’er was tending the fire.
An Nuonuo and Jiang Xiaoyan were cooking.
Jiang Xiaoyan was making stir-fried eggplant.
An Nuonuo was boiling the fish, shrimp, and crabs she caught.
These river delicacies from an unpolluted environment didn’t need too many seasonings.
Put some oil, some chili peppers, and salt, fry it up, and it would emit wafts of deliciousness.
The members all had high visual appeal.
From the screen, it looked like everyone got along well, giving off a very comfortable vibe.
At this point, the play count on Nuomi Video had already broken records.
The TV broadcast figures were unclear, but they should be good as well.
The few of them made a big spread of dishes.
Although they were common, they still looked very appetizing.
Jiang Xu watched the entire variety show.
Then An Nuonuo called him, “Brother Xu, how was it? Was the first episode okay?”
“It was good,” Jiang Xu replied with a laugh, “As long as you maintain the same standard, you could break a hundred million followers.”
Currently, there has been no blogger on Daily Headlines that has broken a hundred million followers.
If An Nuonuo could achieve it, that would be a milestone.
The others also took a nice bite of popularity in this variety show.
“Hehe, it’s all thanks to Brother Xu,” the soft voice of An Nuonuo spoke, “But Brother Xu, you might need to send over a few more bodyguards.”
