This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

It's ten o'clock in the morning, and it will be time to eat in another two hours. The director looked at the children in different clothes, and coughed twice before he said.

It seems that everyone is satisfied with their own housing. The task I will post next will have a lot to do with your lunch! In the countryside, there is no food for the non-working people. Since you have already come to Xiaojia Village, like other children in Xiaojia Village, you have to work to be able to eat. Now it is 10 o'clock. From 10 to 12 o'clock, we will arrange for you to do some work to prove your ability. You now have four options to choose from: One! Dig bamboo shoots! Two, make baskets, three, get water, and four, take care of the sheeps! Now, you can choose to team up and do separate tasks, or all can choose the same task. As long as you complete the task, there will be food for you at noon, otherwise there will be no food!

The director explained the conditions very clearly. In short, it was necessary to let everyone work to get food. If they don't work, they won't get to eat.

After hearing these four choices, the four looked at each other because they didn't really understand, so they silently looked at Xiao Qingrong in the middle, full of expectations.

Xiao Qingrong took a look at the four who were not used to such things, and sighed in his heart.

Which one should I choose?

The four people asked the same question, and Chen Mingze took the lead.

We just came to the village and we don't know which of these and that we can do, can you help us choose? We won't be separated, we'll just follow you, is that ok?

After asking about Xiao Qingrong's free time today, Chen Mingze wasn't scared about this strange village, but contrary a bit excited, and wanted to see what the village was like.

Yes, we'll all listen to you. Didn't you say that you will feed us? I believe you. Wen Xuehui opened her mouth earlier this time, without her indifference, and the other two nodded. They had 100% confidence in Xiao Qingrong.

Dig the bamboo shoots. The bamboo shoots on the mountain just came out and it is the best time. I will take you to the mountains. There are more than just bamboo shoots. There are many fun things to do

Xiao Qingrong thought that there are too many things to eat on the mountain. In order to support the greedy ghost, Xiao Qingrong felt that he had to do what must be done.

All four nodded, and finally told the director that they chose to dig bamboo shoots in the mountains. Although the weather was a little hot at the moment, all four were very interested.

Because they were going to the mountains, Xiao Qingrong specially asked the four to change their clothes because they were currently wearing clothes that don't show any skin. Fortunately, all four brought sportswear, so it would be easier to move around in and they won't get as hot.

Just when the four changed clothes, Xiao Qingrong had gone to the next door to borrow a knife and a basket. Two baskets and two knives were enough for them.

After returning, all four were ready. Xiao Qingrong's knives were snatched by the boys, and the basket was snatched by the two girls. In the end, he grabbed a few herbs at home. In case someone was bitten by a mosquito, it would be useful.

People in the show group were a bit shocked when the four said that they'd go up the mountain. They didn't know what to say, but since the kids have chosen, they'll certainly respect the children's decision. Although the road up the mountain was a bit rough, Xiao Qingrong told a story while walking. Everyone listened with great interest. Everything that happened in the small village was something that these children who grew up in these big cities had never seen or heard before.

Soon there was a place where there were bamboo, and when there was bamboo, there were bamboo shoots. Xiao Qingrong took off his bag.

There should be bamboo shoots here. Let me see if there is one. Let's start digging after resting a while.

The four of them had been panting when they came before. Now that they heard Xiao Qingrong's words, they all sat on the ground without any shame. The feeling of going up the mountain was really tiring, so Xiao Qingrong was looking for bamboo shoots alone.

After a while, he found the location of several bamboo shoots. At this moment, the bamboo shoots on the mountain were the tenderest, and the dishes prepared by them were also the best. However, Xiao Qingrong didn't think that these bamboo shoots were enough. Inside his body, there was a greedy ghost. If he didn't feed the other person, who knows what crazy things the other party will do. Xiao Qingrong dare not gamble on such a small possibility.

After determining the location of the bamboo shoots, Xiao Qingrong chopped down a small bamboo with a knife, and then cut it into a sharp shape. This bamboo was previously used as a weapon in the past, so it was extremely sharp after being sharpened. Looking at the sharp bamboo pole, Xiao Qingrong was very satisfied. If there was a rabbit or a pheasant in a moment, with just this bamboo, Xiao Qingrong felt that he could get them.

His movements were all photographed by the camera crew. After all, the crew was very curious, really curious about Xiao Qingrong, wondering why this person would catch the attention of these wealthy young masters and mistresses.

After the small bamboo pole was made, Xiao Qingrong took it back to where Chen Mingze was sitting. At this time, the four seemed to be chatting, and Xiao Qingrong saw Qiu Wanwan leaning against the tree and there was something moving besides her.

Qingrong? You are back. Did you find the bamboo shoots?

When Tang Tianning saw Xiao Qingrong, he opened his mouth with excitement, but as soon as his words fell down, he saw Xiao Qingrong holding up a slender bamboo in his hand, and then the second moment, the bamboo flew out of his hand, flying towards Qiu Wanwan.

Everyone, even the camera crew didn't know what was going on when they saw the bamboo flying towards Qiu Wanwan...

Qiu Wanwan was also watching Xiao Qingrong. Now as she watched the other person throwing bamboo at herself, she was startled. Her whole body sat there stunned, her heart stopped beating for a moment, and she dared not breathe. The next moment, she heard a sound.

With a bang, the bamboo stabbed directly into the tree behind Qiu Wanwan. Xiao Qingrong had arrived at Qiu Wanwan's side at the fastest speed. Before Qiu Wanwan could respond, he pulled Qiu Wanwan into his arms.

Only then did the crew see what was on the tree! Because the colors of the trees in this mountain were relatively mottled, no one took a closer look at the direction of throw. At this time, they looked at the thing nailed to the tree by the bamboo, and it was twirling wildly. Its original color should have been integrated with the trunk, but because it was hit by the bamboo, it twisted at this time, exposing its white belly. It was a snake, a snake lurking in the tree. If Xiao Qingrong didn't find it, and if it had bitten someone, the show crew wouldn't have known what to do.

Chen Mingze, Tang Tianning and Wen Xuehui all stood up in a hurry, but Qiu Wanwan, who was held by Xiao Qingrong, recovered her heartbeat at this time, but her heartbeat accelerated madly. As she was being held by Xiao Qingrong, she smelled an indescribable, strange scent that made Qiu Wanwan feel strange.

After recovering his mind, Xiao Qingrong looked closely at the snake on the tree and thought it was also useful for the greedy ghost. This snake was scary to others, but it was a delicious meal for greedy ghost.

No wonder when he just saw the snake, his body was suddenly taken over. Fortunately Qiu Wanwan was rescued because of that.

Qiu Wanwan was soothed by Xiao Qingrong's gentle voice.

It's okay, it's okay, Wanwan, just now, there was a snake on the tree.

It's okay if he didn't say anything but when he said that Qiu Wanwan's raised her head and buried it in his body again. The three frightened people on the side suddenly looked at Qiu Wanwan and were jealous. They were also afraid! Why is there no one comforting them!

The show crew was also frightened. At this moment, someone hurriedly sent a person to look at the snake on the tree, and found that the snake was still moving... It made the staff tremble.

Xiao Qingrong let go of Qiu Wanwan, leaving Qiu Wanwan to stand still, took the knife in her hand, and started to cut the bamboo again.

Then everyone saw that Xiao Qingrong easily killed the snake with the bamboo. Not only did it die, he also put it in his back basket.

Why would you keep this snake in your basket?

Chen Mingze was also very scared of this cold-blooded animal. At this moment, all four of them were sticking to Xiao Qingrong's side, and they were not willing to leave for a moment, anyway, they were afraid of what they encountered.

It's food, I will stew the snake bream at noon. The snake bream I make is quite delicious. This snake is a great supplement.

Of course, it wasn't Xiao Qingrong who was talking this time, but the greedy ghost. He had a happy smile on his face at this time. It was as if he felt that the snake was the most delicious thing in the world, so when those four heard it, they were speechless. Eating a snake...?

The camera crew also looked at Xiao Qingrong and felt a chill. Do the children in the countryside still have the habit of eating snakes?

I, I don't want to eat... Qiu Wanwan was about to cry because she was scared. At this moment, she looked at Xiao Qingrong with a grievance. Her small appearance was so cute that Xiao Qingrong recovered his body and he could not help but reach out and touch her head and say in a soft voice.

If you don't want to eat snakes, how about fish? I can make fish very well, as well as crayfish, crab, whatever you want.

This inconsistency looked almost incompetent. When Wen Xuehui looked at Qiu Wanwan, who was being coquettish with Xiao Qingrong, she walked forward with a sullen head, but suddenly she stepped on a bamboo and slipped forward.

Xiao Qingrong has been observing their situation and when he saw that Wen Xuehui was about to fall, he quickly turned around and hugged Wen Xuehui who fell over, and then settled her down.

The roads on this mountain are not so easy. Xuehui, you have to be careful. If you are afraid, you can hold my hand?

Unknowingly Xiao Qingrong held out his hand, and Wen Xuehui was embarrassed and put her hand in Xiao Qingrong's palm, but her face bloomed with a smile, and Qiu Wanwan from one side came over to hold Xiao Qingrong's other hand.

Qingrong, I'm also afraid, and if I held your hand, I won't be afraid.
