Good luck with koi carp

End of Chapter 78 "Baby Beibei"
After Chi Li and the others came back, not long after, the team of Shen Zijun and Zhang Sen also came back with loads of ingredients.


All the children had a good harvest and it seems no one will go hungry today.


Seeing that it was getting late, the host asked everyone to go home to eat and rest, and then come back in the afternoon to complete new tasks.


"Sister Chi..." Cheng Chang carried his own ingredients and looked at Chi Qing.


Knowing what he meant, Chi Qing nodded: "Let's go back and cook together."


"Okay, thank you, sister. This thing is too heavy. I'll just carry it."


Someone was kind enough to lend her their kitchen, so Cheng Chang was naturally more attentive. He stepped forward, ignored Chi Qing's refusal, and snatched the basket from her hand. He carried two heavy baskets with a smile on his face. As happy as the New Year.


Cheng Yiyi next to her didn't realize at all that it was her cheating behavior that made her brother have to be so 'little low' outside, just so that he could have a place to light a fire for the brother and sister to cook, and he was chatting with Chi Li in front of him. Play and walk.


The two little guys were running around chasing each other, causing Chi Qing to follow behind and keep telling them: "Run slower, be careful..."


With the support of sufficient food, Chili and the others naturally had a sumptuous lunch. After the meal, her mother took her and gave her a simple bath to avoid the smell of sweat all over her body.


Chili, who had become fragrant again, was tucked into the bed by her mother. She didn't sleep either. She just lay on the bed with her two little feet raised and dangling. Those who didn't know thought it was a shell that had been turned over. little turtle.


Chi Qing, who had also washed herself briefly, saw her daughter's cute little appearance as soon as she came in. She walked over and pushed down her two little feet in a funny way, and covered her with the quilt: "Go to bed, no more playing."


"Mom, hug me and give me a pat."


Chili turned over and snuggled into her mother's arms to act coquettishly, hoping she would coax him to sleep.


"Okay, mom, hold Lili, and Lili will sleep well."


Chi Qing hugged her daughter tenderly, put her hand on the back of her little body and gently ran to coax her, like a lullaby, coaxing the baby to gradually fall into a dream.


After a while, the sound of even breathing came from the arms, and the little guy fell asleep.


*

The lunch break passed quickly.


At 02:30 in the afternoon, in front of different cameras, four groups of people were woken up by their own alarm clocks.


The children were still struggling in a daze not wanting to get up, but the adults got up with more self-control. They cleaned themselves up first, and then tried to wake up their children.

Wake-up calls vary.


Some simply and roughly lifted the quilt, scooped up the child, and got him up, while others were gentler and gently rocked the child to get up.


Chi Li was not woken up.


She slept soundly, and she vaguely felt as if her mother had picked her up from the bed, helped her get dressed and put on shoes, and then carried her out of the house in a soft ball to the meeting place.


There were already guests waiting here who had come early. When they saw Chi Li being carried by her mother with her eyes closed, she consciously lowered her voice and said, "She's still asleep."


"Well, seeing that she was sleeping soundly, I didn't have the heart to wake her up."


Chi Qing raised his hand to help his daughter put on the little hat attached to her coat.


After waiting for a while, everyone arrived, and the host stood up at the right time to announce the afternoon's game tasks.


"Peel the bamboo shoots."


The rules of the game are as follows: Each team member needs to peel the bamboo shoots they dug in the morning. Whichever group completes it first will win.


Once they heard the rules of the game, Shen Yuxiang and Zhang Fan, who had worked hardest to dig bamboo shoots in the morning, couldn't hold back on the spot.


"No..." Zhang Fan couldn't help but question: "Didn't you say that whoever digs more bamboo shoots will get a points advantage in the afternoon game? What about the points? Why did it become a bamboo shoot peeling competition?"


"Of course there is a points advantage."


The host smiled mysteriously, then lifted up the red cloth covering the table next to him: "Dangdang, look, these are the bamboo shoot peeling tools our program team has prepared for you. These tools are not given to you for free. You have to use points. Yes, different tools have different prices, and your points must be settled based on the weight of the bamboo shoots you dug. One pound of bamboo shoots is equal to 1 point."


In other words, what tools they can get for peeling bamboo shoots depends on how many bamboo shoots they dug in the morning and how many points they got.


Looking at the various tools on the table, such as kitchen knives, hammers, pots, spades, nail clippers, etc., but those two were really suitable for peeling bamboo shoots, Shen Yuxiang and the others felt mentally balanced.


After all, everyone knows that an easy-to-use tool has far more advantages than fewer bamboo shoots to peel.


For example: one person has to peel ten kilograms of bamboo shoots, while the other only needs to peel eight kilograms. But the person who peels more bamboo shoots has a large, sharp kitchen knife, while the person who peels less bamboo shoots only has a small nail clipper. Who peeled it off faster in the end?

The results speak for themselves.


So at this moment, everyone no longer cares about how many bamboo shoots they need to peel. They are secretly adding up the points in their hands and looking at what tool they will exchange for a better tool later.


Before exchanging, it is natural to weigh the bamboo shoots dug by each person.


The final points ranking is as follows:

Shen Yuxiang dug fifty kilograms of bamboo shoots and received 50 points.

Zhang Fan dug 45 kilograms of bamboo shoots and earned 45 points.

Chi Qing dug 39 pounds of bamboo shoots and earned 39 points.

Cheng Chang dug 37 kilograms of bamboo shoots and earned 37 points.


Naturally, it is impossible for everyone to dig up a full kilogram of bamboo shoots, but for the convenience of calculation, they all adopt the rounding method and calculate it into an integer.


To be honest, this result was a little surprising.


It is not surprising that Shen Yuxiang and Zhang Fan can occupy the first and second place. They both have the habit of fitness. In addition, both of them are from rural areas. They have helped the family with a lot of farm work in the past. Digging bamboo shoots is not a problem for them. I'm not very familiar with it, but it's not difficult to operate and I can keep up with it physically.


But it was a bit unexpected that Chi Qing could surpass Cheng Chang and win No. 3.


But if you think about it carefully, in addition to digging out the bamboo shoots from the soil, you have to find them first, so even if Chi Qing is weak and weak, she has never dug them, but if she is lucky, she can find more. Bamboo shoots, no matter how hard you work, it’s not impossible to dig out so many bamboo shoots.


After figuring it out, everyone quickly skipped it and started actively planning what tools to exchange.


The redemption tools are in no particular order, just whether you have points or not.


Soon, the most useful large kitchen knife was exchanged by Shen Yuxiang, which was worth exactly 50 points.


Seeing someone taking action, others quickly followed suit.


Zhang Fan quickly grabbed a small fruit knife, Chi Qing grabbed the iron spatula. The edge of the shovel was still sharp and could barely be used. Cheng Chang...he picked and picked, and finally only took the nail clippers. .


There is no way, other hammer wash basins and the like cannot be used to peel bamboo shoots, so they can only be taller among the shorter ones.


Everyone who had obtained their own tools began nervously peeling off the bamboo shoots at the host’s command.


Chi Li was temporarily put on the bench aside by her mother and continued to sleep. However, in such a noisy environment, she actually couldn't sleep any more. She could only get up in confusion and look for her mother with her mouth closed.


"Mother……"


Seeing her mother sitting there holding a shovel to an unknown object and not knowing what she was doing, Chili climbed off the bench by herself, walked over with her short legs like a little penguin, and poked her head around. He looked at it twice and asked curiously: "Mom, what is this?"


"This is a bamboo shoot." Chi Qing explained to her daughter while clumsily continuing her movements. She first used the sharp edge of the shovel to grind the bamboo shoot shell hard, and then started to break it off after grinding it hard to get some cracks.


After working on it for a while, I finally broke off a piece of bamboo shoot shell.


To be honest, this tool is not easy to use at all.


After all, it is a spatula. No matter how sharp it is, it cannot be as useful as a knife. So after trying it a few times, Chi Qing simply threw away the spatula and peeled the bamboo shoots with his bare hands.


Facts have proved that peeling shells with bare hands is much more convenient than using tools that are not convenient for you. Cheng Chang next to him has long given up on the small nail clippers, and just breaks them off with his hands.


"Mom, I'll help you."


Seeing that her mother was so busy, Chi Li squatted down next to her and started to help. However, she was small and weak, and she had no tools in her hands. It was not easy to peel off the bamboo shoots. It took her a long time to peel off a big bamboo shoot. Pull off a piece of shell.


Well, talk is better than nothing.
Chi Qing did not dislike her daughter for doing her best with the children, and would praise her children from time to time, such as "Lili is great", "He helped mommy a lot", "Lili is so good" and so on. Just come and praise Chili for making her work harder and peeling bamboo shoots so much fun.


The other children were also helping the adults peel the bamboo shoots.


The fastest team was naturally the Shen family's father and son team. Shen Yuxiang used a large kitchen knife to make a large opening on each bamboo shoot in one breath, and then the father and son peeled off the bamboo shoots together at such a fast speed.


After a busy meal, the Shen family father and son took the lead in completing the task of peeling bamboo shoots. After they won the victory, they were not idle. They simply used a large kitchen knife to help other groups open the bamboo shoots so that they could peel them more smoothly.


"Thank you, Brother Shen."

"Thank you Junjun."

……


At this time, victory is no longer something that must be achieved. Everyone just wants to complete the task of peeling bamboo shoots as soon as possible. Everyone is grateful to the Shen family and his son for their help.


"Sister Lili, let me peel it for you."


Shen Zijun saw that Chili was having difficulty peeling bamboo shoots, so he quickly and enthusiastically came over to help.


In the end, everyone's results in peeling bamboo shoots coincidentally continued their previous points rankings. The Zhang family brothers and sisters were second, the Chi family mother and daughter were third, and the Cheng family brothers and sisters were last.


The Cheng brothers and sisters didn't look disappointed at all after receiving this result. They even salivated over a pile of peeled bamboo shoots with great interest, counting what dishes they could make with them tonight.


It was obvious that these brothers and sisters must be lovers of bamboo shoots.


"Congratulations to everyone for completing the task. After a day of hard work, everyone has obtained the fruits of their labor. Now, please enjoy your harvest."


As the host finished speaking, several people brought some tables and chairs and placed them in front of the guests. Then some people came up with plates of hot dishes and placed them on those tables.


Chili put her hands on the edge of the table and looked curiously at the table. She found that there were bamboo shoots in the dishes.


The program team prepared a banquet of bamboo shoots for everyone.


I was pleasantly surprised to find that I didn’t have to cook for myself tonight, so everyone naturally took the children with them and found their own seats to sit down.


By the way, watch the Shen family's 'Award Ceremony'.


For winning the game, they received prizes from the sponsors of the program. The items were not very expensive, but the honor really made other children envious.


Noticing her daughter's eager expression as she looked at the prize, Chi Qing lowered his head and whispered in her ear, promising: "Next time, mom will work harder and win a prize for our Lili, okay?"


"No more." Chi Li shook her head, and before her mother could ask why, she said something that made her particularly heartwarming: "Mom is tired."


Just six words made Chi Qing's eyes turn red.


"It's okay, mom is not tired."


Her daughter was too sensible. Chi Qing didn't know how to express her feelings, so she could only answer like this.


Others nearby also noticed the movements of the mother and daughter, and couldn't help but be moved by Chi Li's sensibleness. Cheng Chang even gave a thumbs up to Chi Qing: "Sister Chi, when it comes to educating children, you are the one, I am. I will learn more from you in the future.”


"What, you want a child?" Shen Yuxiang joked.


"I can't pay for it at the moment. I don't have a partner yet." Cheng Chang felt shy at being told that, and his cheeks turned red as he scratched his head.


Cheng Yiyi looked up at her brother strangely, and then continued to work hard.


I have to say that the chefs hired by the program team are really good at their craftsmanship. This all-bamboo shoot feast was so delicious that the children almost buried their faces in their bowls as soon as they started eating. They are so worthless. Appearance, in Zhang Fan's words.


"As if I don't give you food to eat."


In response, her brother Zhang Sen gave her a look and let her experience it for herself.


Some people don't even eat the dark dog food they make, but they always use it to harm their younger brother. To be honest, it's a miracle that Zhang Sen hasn't been poisoned to death by his sister since the filming of the show.


After dinner, the program team lit up a bonfire in the open space and held a bonfire party for everyone. At the party, everyone talked, laughed, sang and danced, and was very happy. It was not until night fell that everyone who had enjoyed themselves took their children home.


In the dark night, there were only one or two street lamps illuminating the place, and the light was dim.


Chili held her mother's hand and followed her step by step, walking home in her mother's shadow.


While walking, she suddenly asked: "Mom, will you always stay with Lili?"


"Yes." Chi Qing responded without hesitation.


"Always, always." Chi Li emphasized uneasily.


Chi Qing smiled and cooperated with her: "Okay, always, mommy will always be with our Lili."


"Hehehe... Lili loves her mother the most."


After getting the response she wanted, Chili jumped up and down happily and expressed her love to her mother super loudly.


Infected by the child's emotions, Chi Qing couldn't help but laugh: "Mom loves Lili the most too."


The night gradually fell, and every household fell into a deep sleep.


The next day was another day of recording. Maybe because the material from the previous day was enough, the recording task for the second day was relatively easy. The program team only arranged for everyone to play a few parent-child games before announcing the end of the recording of this episode.


"Bye bye sister Lili."

"Goodbye."

"Bye bye sister Yiyi, brother Junjun, brother Sensen."

……


In front of their respective cars, the children reluctantly said goodbye to their friends, and the adults waited patiently for them without rushing them.


Because everyone knows that after this episode, they may not meet again in the next episode, and it is not certain whether their friendship will continue in the future, so let the children say goodbye.


After getting in the car, Chili put her hands on the car window and looked out. Only when she couldn't see other people's cars did she turn around and ask her mother, "Will we come again next time?"


"Does Lili think recording the show is fun?"


Chi Qing used her hand as a comb to smooth her daughter's messy hair and asked with a smile.


"Fun!" Chi Li responded loudly.


It can be seen that she was really happy recording this show.


"Then we'll come back." Chi Qing will naturally fulfill her daughter's wish.


In this way, the mother and daughter who had booked the next program recording returned home.


It had only been three or four days since she had seen her grandpa, but Chi Li acted as if she hadn't seen him for three or four years. As soon as they met, she would lie in her grandpa's arms, acting coquettishly and saying sweet words to coax her grandpa. "I miss you so much, does grandpa miss Lili?" and "Lili loves grandpa the most", which made the old man smile.


Even Chi Qing, who was dealing with work piled up for several days in the study, could faintly hear the hearty laughter.


"So happy?"


Although he was a little curious about what the grandfather and grandson were talking about, but at the moment of work, Chi Qing chose to finish it first.


I have to go to the company for a meeting tomorrow morning.
