The two of them went out. Peng Yuchang, holding a piece of cured pork ribs in his hand, led Qi Jia to the village. The young man was very polite. When he met a family that opened the door, he went to the door to ask if he could exchange the cured pork ribs for eggs. The villagers knew that he was a star who came to the village to film a program, and they were happy to help him. However, when they heard that he wanted eggs, they all shook their heads. The reason was that due to the construction of a new countryside, there were not many people raising chickens in Tonglu. Even if there were, they would only raise a few. Usually, they would eat the eggs themselves. This time, I heard that they wanted 20 at once. No family would have so many. After failing to get one family again, Qi Jia, who had been watching for a while, asked, "Do you usually ask door to door like this?" "Ah, what else?" Although he failed many times, Peng Yuchang was still full of energy. He was about to attack another family when he was stopped by Qi Jia. "Give me the ribs, I'll try."

"Okay, you try it. This requires skills. If you don't understand, you can ask me." Peng Yuchang said straightforwardly.

Qi Jia took the ribs, but did not enter the store selected by Peng Yuchang. Instead, he continued to walk towards the village.

The two walked for more than ten minutes.

Along the way, Qi Jia did not stop at all when he passed several stores. Just when Peng Yuchang couldn't help but ask,

Qi Jia's eyes suddenly lit up, leaving Peng Yuchang behind, and walked to an undecorated red brick house in three or two steps, and said politely,

"Excuse me, is anyone home?"

Hearing the voice, an old lady walked out slowly from the inner room. She glanced at Qi Jia,

"Are you okay?"

"Grandma, I want to exchange my ribs for twenty eggs with you, okay?" Qi Jia asked with a smile.

The old lady glanced at the photographer following behind her, and remembered what the village chief had said before,

A star was coming to the village to shoot a show, and the villagers were asked to entertain him well. She immediately understood Qi Jia's identity.

"Eggs, right? Yes, sit down first and I'll get them for you."

The old lady responded with a smile, asked the three people to sit down first, and then she turned around and went back to the house slowly.

"Brother Qi, it's amazing, how did you know that grandma's family had so many eggs?"

Peng Yuchang approached Qi Jia with excitement and asked.

"Look under that tree."

Qi Jia didn't keep it a secret, and pointed to the bumpy mud ground under the big tree in front of the door and explained.

"Grandma should have raised a lot of chickens at home, and the ground was dug like this, so I bet that she must have a lot of eggs at home, and I was right."

"Awesome! You can guess it with just one look!"

After listening to Qi Jia's analysis, Peng Yuchang was simply astonished.

Unexpectedly, Qi Jia shook his head,

"Not really, it's mainly because I smelled the smell of chicken manure."

Those who have raised chickens in rural families know that when the number of chickens is large, the smell can be smelled from a long distance.

After the two chatted for a few words, the old lady came out with a bag full of eggs, which seemed to be more than twenty.

"Thank you, grandma, you can take these ribs."

Qi Jia stood up hurriedly, took the bag with both hands, and then handed over the ribs.

Unexpectedly, the old lady waved her hand and said with a smile,

"You can take it back, my teeth are almost falling out, and I can't eat it."

After that, she opened her mouth to show everyone.

"Then you can keep it for your family to eat."

Qi Jia tried to persuade the old lady that if she didn't accept the cured ribs, he couldn't take the eggs either, as this was the program group's rule.

"There are only two old people at home, and the children are all outside, you can take it back."

The old lady pushed it back again and still refused to accept it.

Things were at a standstill. Just when Peng Yuchang was about to go to another place to have a look, Qi Jia pointed to a bucket and said, "How about this, grandma, I'll help you fetch water for the vegetables, and you give me eggs. I can't take your eggs for free." Peng Yuchang was immediately surprised when he heard this. Since the show started, no star has said that he would help others fetch water for the vegetables. In the past, the barter was just to help sweep the floor. The photographer was excited after hearing this, and his body trembled with excitement, like a sieve. If he really took this picture, the director would definitely reward him. "Can you do it?" "And you have to carry manure, it's very dirty and smelly!" The old lady looked at Qi Jia suspiciously. Although the young man was tall and strong, weren't the stars unable to carry anything? Don't carry water to the manure pit. Not only will the cap be covered, but you will also waste two buckets.

"I grew up in the countryside. What's wrong with that? Let's make it this way."

Qi Jia made the decision directly and handed over the eggs and ribs.To Peng Yuchang, he said.

"Take these back first."

"Then I'll come back to help you later." Peng Yuchang said.

"You'd better stay at home to help. There's only a pair of buckets. You won't have anything to use when you come."

Qi Jia skillfully carried the two buckets on his shoulders with a pole while speaking, adjusted the balance,

and then followed the old lady to the farmland.

The photographer ran around excitedly, facing the two people, composing and changing the focal length, taking pictures non-stop.

On the other hand,

Peng Yuchang returned to the mushroom house with a bag full of eggs and ribs,

Chef Huang, who was squatting at the kitchen door, eagerly waiting for the eggs to be put into the pot, hurriedly came up to take the eggs and asked.

"Why did you take so long? Where's Qi Jia?"

Peng Yuchang briefly recounted the process of the two exchanging eggs, and He Jiong and Huang Lei were stunned.

They wondered whose general this was, so fierce, and without any idol baggage at all? He had to pick up manure at the beginning!

"Peng Peng, go back and see if you can help."

After Huang Lei and Peng Yuchang finished speaking, they said to Liu Xianhua, who was sitting in the yard, playing the violin,

"Xianhua, don't play it so early in the morning. The villagers will be scared when they hear it. Help sweep the floor. The guests will be here soon."

...

While they were talking, Qi Jia had already come to the vegetable field with a bucket filled with manure water.

The manure water was collected from the toilet of the old lady's house. In rural areas, manure water mixed with clean water is often used as fertilizer to water vegetables.

The old lady's vegetable field is only about 300 meters away from her home, on a slope.

There are Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage and a few tomato trees planted in the field. Qi Jia needs to fill up the water at the bottom of the slope and then carry it up the slope.

When Peng Yuchang came, he saw Qi Jia carrying two buckets of water, climbing the slope barefoot.

The photographer was barefoot like him, with his trouser legs rolled up, and he was still taking pictures.

"Brother Qi, I'm here to help you."

Peng Yuchang stepped carefully on the ridge and staggered to the vegetable field.

After saying that, he didn't know what he could do, so he had to rub his hands and turn around awkwardly.

"Help the old lady pull out the weeds in the vegetable field."

Fortunately, Qi Jia reminded him and asked him to find a job, so he squatted on the ground to help.

"Hey, young man, don't pull that. It's a vegetable seedling, not a weed." The old lady cried and laughed, waving her hand to stop Peng Yuchang's impulse,

"Oh, old lady, today's show is so grand, you caught two stars to help you."

A familiar woman passed by and joked after seeing it.

"The two young men are kind-hearted. They said they couldn't take my eggs for free, so they had to help me. You're so professional."

The old lady straightened up, greeted her neighbors, and praised them with a smile,

"Haha, there is such a good thing, big star, can you help me water my land, I will give you eggplant."

The woman felt it was interesting. It was the first time she heard that a star could carry water to water the vegetables, so she pointed to her own vegetable garden and laughed.

Qi Jia looked up and saw that her eggplants were round and beautiful. She thought that they could be used to stew the cured pork ribs. So she readily agreed, "No problem. I'll help you after I finish pouring this bucket of water." Peng Yuchang, who treated vegetables as grass, was eager to save his self-esteem. Seeing this, he jumped up and said. "Brother Qi, I'll do it." After saying that, he walked directly to the woman and said very politely. "Sister, let me help you." The woman saw that Peng Yuchang was quite strong, so she didn't think much about it and handed him the shoulder pole with a smile. However, Peng Yuchang was obviously doing this kind of work for the first time. He was busy imitating Qi Jia's behavior. He squatted down and lifted the two buckets with all his strength. As a result, after walking two steps unsteadily, he didn't stand firmly. His feet softened and he knelt in the ditch with a plop, which made the woman laugh. Peng Yuchang's face turned red with embarrassment. He looked up and saw the photographer grinning and pointing the camera at him. He felt worse than if his house collapsed. He hurriedly got up and looked at the mess under him. He was so miserable that he wanted to cry. "Peng Peng, go back and change your clothes quickly, otherwise the mud will stick to your pants and it will be difficult to wash." Qi Jia said with a suppressed smile. After hearing this, Peng Yuchang nodded hurriedly and fled from here awkwardly. ... More than 40 minutes later, Qi Jia and the photographer returned to the mushroom house barefoot, one holding a shoe in his left hand, holding vegetables in his right hand, and the other carrying a camera. Before entering the house, he heard several people chatting inside through the courtyard wall, including two female voices. "It should be other guests." The photographer took off his pants and farted. QiJia's heart moved. This voice sounded familiar?
