Before long, it was time for the second episode of ‘Countryside Life With My Family’ to be shot.
Filming was taking place in the same village in Ren County.
Huo Yao was dressed in sportswear again, so Huo Xiang also wore activewear from the same brand to compliment his little sister. Since both of them were tall and lean, they looked cool standing together. It made for a perfect picture.
Huo Yao naturally wore a black mask and attracted more attention than Huo Xiang owing to her mysterious appearance.
They arrived at the filming location at 9:30 am.
Yin Hai, Xiao Moling, and Shen Si’s teams had arrived as well.
The live stream started on time.
After greeting everyone, the host wasted no time and told everyone about their mission for the morning.
The production team brought out four wicker baskets.
The moment Yin Hai saw the wicker baskets, he said, “I can’t help thinking about how Huo Xiang’s little sister caught the chickens in the last episode.”
Huo Yao’s lips twitched when she heard him talk about her.
The host laughed. “Uncle Yin, you’re right. These are the same wicker baskets, but we are using them for something different this time.”
Shen Si looked at the camera and sighed dramatically. “It looks like we are going to spend the day getting tortured by the production team yet again.”
Xiao Moling added with a resigned shrug. “You’re right.”
“I’m going to pretend that I didn’t hear what you said,” reacted the host angrily.
He took out waterproof gear from the wicker basket and said, “This is for today’s mission.”
Yin Hai walked over and asked him with a straight face. “What’s this? A diving suit?”
The host: “…”
[HAHAHA! Diving equipment? I can see the host’s face cracking.]
[Uncle Yin’s family seems to consist of great talkers.]
[Host: This job is tough.]
The host gathered his thoughts and looked at Yin Hai hard before he continued. “That’s right. This is diving… Ptooey… waterproof gear.”
“You’ll be wearing it to harvest lotus roots this morning. The first team to fill up the wicker basket wins.”
Yin Hai’s shoulders drooped. “This mission is even harder than killing chickens. The production team really won’t give up until they torture all of us to death.”
The host looked at Yin Hai quietly. A few seconds later, he placed the largest wicker basket before Yin Hai. “Congrats! You just succeeded in sabotaging yourself.”
Yin Hai was dumbstruck. “…”
[HAHA! The host is number one at taking revenge.]
[Uncle Yin: I shouldn’t have been such a smart mouth!]
Before long, all four teams changed into waterproof gear. They followed the professional lotus root farmers and walked for about ten minutes to reach a huge lotus pond.
Four small boats were already awaiting the filming crew.
Prior to the start of the mission, everyone spent some time learning how to harvest lotus root before each team went on their way.
Huo Yao pulled her long hair into a bun before she adjusted her mask. She turned to look at Huo Xiang. “Have you learned how to do it?”
Huo Xiang nodded. Even if he failed to grasp it, he had to say that he did.
His fans were laughing at him till now about the chicken slaughtering incident in the first episode. Hence, he was determined not to burden his little sister this time around.
Huo Yao failed to notice his nod and said unhurriedly, “It doesn’t matter. Just hold the wicker basket properly.”
She had already experienced Huo Xiang’s lack of abilities firsthand.
Huo Xiang: “…”
Did she have to embarrass him like this?
