Popular Top Stream (14): The rich second generation who is good at farm work and the top star who is also good at farm work are really good to watch.
Although Gu Juntian pondered for most of the night, he still ended up sleeping.
In the morning, he was still sleeping soundly.
Zhou Qinghao woke up early, and after waking up, he silently watched Gu Juntian.
Gu Juntian was really handsome; no wonder he fell in love at first sight.
He had always felt that he really enjoyed acting. After all, while others found it tiring and hard, thinking about retirement every day, he had never had such thoughts.
If he really were to retire, he would definitely be very bored; it would be better to work hard on set every day.
But at this moment, he also wanted to retire.
He didn’t want to join the crew, he didn’t want to be separated from Gu Juntian.
When Gu Juntian opened his eyes, he saw Zhou Qinghao staring at him intently.
Looking at that gaze, one could tell that Zhou Qinghao must love him very, very much.
In this person’s eyes and heart, he probably occupied all of it.
“It’s getting late, let’s get up,” Gu Juntian said.
“Mm.” Zhou Qinghao responded and was about to get up when Gu Juntian hugged him again, “You aren’t wearing a shirt, it’s too cold to get up directly.”
After saying that, Gu Juntian put the thermal underwear Zhou Qinghao had taken off yesterday into the quilt, warmed it up for a while, and only then helped Zhou Qinghao put it on.
Yes, he helped Zhou Qinghao put it on.
He didn’t let Zhou Qinghao leave the bed, and like dressing a child, he helped Zhou Qinghao put on his clothes while still in the bed.
Zhou Qinghao was very puzzled and couldn’t quite understand Gu Juntian.
If you say that Gu Juntian liked him, Gu Juntian didn’t let him touch him, but if you say that Gu Juntian didn’t like him, Gu Juntian took care of him so much.
Gu Juntian, what on earth are you thinking?
Gu Juntian didn’t think much of it; he simply found Zhou Qinghao, who was being so casual, very cute.
He almost wanted to help Zhou Qinghao put on all his clothes properly.
Forget it, better not. Gu Juntian got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.
As soon as he entered the bathroom, Zhou Qinghao followed him in.
The two squeezed into the same bathroom, and the air was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Gu Juntian looked at Zhou Qinghao in the mirror, feeling very pleased.
His boyfriend was so handsome!
Gu Juntian went to bed late yesterday, so he woke up late today. After they hurriedly finished washing up, they rushed downstairs. It was already almost eight o’clock, and everyone else had arrived.
The director saw they had arrived and made a gesture, indicating the live broadcast had started.
Everyone immediately got into the mood.
Hu Bingshan was the first to speak: “Teacher Zhou, I’ve heard people talk about your ‘model worker’ reputation for a long time. I didn’t feel it before, but after looking at your schedule last night, I was truly shocked. I always thought I was diligent enough, but compared to you, I’m really nothing.”
“Teacher Zhou, with you being so busy, don’t you ever feel tired?” Zhao Li asked.
Zhou Qinghao said, “I’m used to it.”
The variety show “Return to the Countryside” had had quite a few revelations these past couple of days.
This had led to an increasing number of viewers for the live broadcasts, especially since it was already winter break.
Many of Zhou Qinghao’s fans were students, and once they were on break, the number of people in Zhou Qinghao’s live stream reached an astonishing figure.
“Woo woo woo, brother is really working hard.”
“Brother is amazing!”
“Go, brother!”
……
These people were cheering for Zhou Qinghao, feeling sorry for him being wronged last night, and at the same time, they were looking down on Qiao Qiao.
The director looked at the huge viewership and couldn’t help but smile.
The popularity of his variety show was increasing, and although he had taken a lot of heat from Qiao Qiao before, it was worth it.
With a beaming smile, the director came to the guests and said, “Hello everyone! Another energetic day has begun, and today, our production team has prepared a delicious breakfast for you as usual.”
Gu Juntian looked at Zhou Qinghao: “He didn’t say it was abundant, so today’s breakfast probably isn’t much.”
Zhou Qinghao nodded in agreement.
As a result, today’s breakfast was not just a little lacking; in the end, they were served only one dish.
“Ladies and gentlemen, our production team consulted with the locals to understand their eating habits and selected the most popular local delicacy for you to taste. This delicacy is the legendary vegetable-cooked rice cake!” the director announced.
Qin Yanming felt nauseous at the mention of “rice cake,” but the others seemed fine.
At this moment, Gu Juntian innocently suggested, “Director, could you give me some more meat? Or at least a boiled egg. If I don’t get enough protein, I’ll lose muscle. It’s not easy to build muscle.”
He didn’t necessarily have to eat meat; wasn’t Zhou Qinghao just recovering from an illness? He should at least have an egg to regain his strength.
If Gu Juntian had asked for something else, the director might not have obliged, but all Gu Juntian wanted was a boiled egg!
Recalling that they had given him an egg on the first day… the director handed Gu Juntian a bowl of eggs: “Here!”
Gu Juntian was satisfied and took a bowl to serve the stir-fried vegetables with rice cakes.
He added more vegetables and fewer rice cakes. After serving, he handed it to Zhou Qinghao: “Eat it while it’s hot.”
After serving Zhou Qinghao, Gu Juntian filled another bowl for himself, then took two eggs and gave them to Zhou Qinghao: “Teacher Zhou, have two more eggs. This meal is well-balanced with both meat and vegetables.”
“Mm.” Zhou Qinghao smiled and peeled the eggs.
In the comments, more and more people are secretly shipping the two.
Some people also recalled a previous incident: “When they had breakfast for the first time, didn’t Qiao Qiao try to give Gu Juntian the egg yolk? He’s just a nanny’s son, and he doesn’t even like egg yolks, yet he gave them to his employer. It’s hard to explain.”
“Gu Juntian wasn’t being abused by the nanny, was he?”
“That shouldn’t be the case.”
“Young Master Gu really doesn’t seem like a young master at all, and Zhou Qinghao doesn’t seem like a top star…”
……
After breakfast, it was time for the task segment again.
This time, the production team assigned the guests the task of planting rapeseed.
In this village, there was a tradition of planting rapeseed. In the past, every household used rapeseed to make oil.
Nowadays, every spring, there are vast fields of rapeseed flowers here, and some people would even come specifically to see the rapeseed flowers.
“When rapeseed is sown, the seeds are scattered and allowed to grow freely. However, once they reach a certain height, local farmers will separate them one by one and plant them neatly in the field…” the director explained the rapeseed planting method to the guests.
Nowadays, there are also methods where seeds are directly sown in the field without later separation.
But in the past, when labor was relatively cheap, rice would be sown first, then pulled out after a while and replanted.
The same goes for rapeseed. If sown too densely, it would affect the yield, so farmers would separate the rapeseed plants by a certain distance about half a month before the New Year.
“You each have to plant a piece of land. The first one to finish can eat six dishes, the second can eat five dishes, and so on. The last one to finish can only eat one dish!” the director said. “To avoid cheating, food cannot be shared, and you can only eat after finishing planting the land.”
After saying this, the director distributed the tools for planting.
The land was already plowed, so they didn’t need to do it again. What they had to do was dig holes at certain intervals, plant the rapeseed, and then water it.
This job wasn’t particularly difficult, but bending over to dig holes and plant vegetables was quite tiring, especially since they had to compete.
“Everyone, do your best and plant well. Let’s see whose rapeseed flowers bloom the best in the future,” the director said. “Start!”
When Gu Juntian saw Zhou Qinghao pick up the farming tools, he already felt uncomfortable all over. Now, seeing Zhou Qinghao about to go to work in the field, he rushed over without thinking and snatched the tools from Zhou Qinghao’s hands. “I’ll take care of your field. You go rest over there.”
Farming was not something Zhou Qinghao should be doing. He just needed to sit there and relax.
He believed that after helping Zhou Qinghao finish planting, he would still have time to plant his own land and wouldn’t fall behind.
And even if the food couldn’t be shared… he could always eat a bit more rice.
Thinking this, Gu Juntian immediately started planting.
Zhou Qinghao glanced at Gu Juntian, then went to Gu Juntian’s plot of land, took Gu Juntian’s tools, and started planting.
“You don’t need to do anything, I’ll handle the planting!” Gu Juntian hurriedly intervened.
Zhou Qinghao replied, “My body is fine now, and I like farming, so don’t stop me.” He really couldn’t just sit back and let Gu Juntian farm both plots alone; that would be too much.
Zhou Qinghao liked farming? Gu Juntian didn’t know whether to stop him or not, and then he saw Zhou Qinghao already starting to plant the rapeseed flowers, his movements very skilled and precise.
Gu Juntian stared at Zhou Qinghao for a while, feeling more and more heartbroken. In the end, he could only vent all his emotions onto Zhou Qinghao’s plot of land.
Zhou Qinghao was farming his land, so now he had to quickly finish farming Zhou Qinghao’s land before going to farm his own.
Then, the guests, the program crew staff, and all the viewers watching the live broadcast saw Gu Juntian, the top-tier rich second generation, and Zhou Qinghao, the top-tier celebrity, farming the land quickly and efficiently, far surpassing everyone else.
As for the others… Hu Bingshan had some experience with farm work, but he hadn’t done it for many years and was getting old, so naturally, he didn’t do it well.
Qin Yanming had been trying very hard to redeem himself, but his speed was even slower than Hu Bingshan’s.
However, he still had Zhao Li and Qiao Qiao behind him, so he didn’t end up too embarrassed.
Among everyone, the one who worked the slowest, without a doubt, was Qiao Qiao.
He knew that even if he worked hard and came in first at this point, it wouldn’t clear his name, so he might as well not bother.
He already hated doing this kind of dirty and tiring work.
Qiao Qiao, following his usual style, spoke to the live stream and interacted with the audience as always.
This left some viewers who had come to watch the show shocked.
This person’s thick skin was unmatched by ordinary people.
Gu Juntian had never done farm work before, and at first, he was quite slow. However, after watching Zhou Qinghao work, he learned and then started working at lightning speed.
Rapeseed needs to be planted with a certain distance between them, but of course, farmers usually aren’t very strict about it, just estimating that it’s about right. As a result, Gu Juntian didn’t really estimate and just started planting, and surprisingly, he planted the rapeseed exceptionally neatly.
This young master Gu really had a talent for farming!
“Young Master Gu’s rapeseed flowers are really well grown!”
“Young Master Gu is truly a master at farming.”
“Young Master Gu actually wants to farm two plots of land by himself. He must really love Zhou Qinghao!”
“Ah ah ah! They make such a good match!”
“My brother works really fast!”
“After the live stream ends, I definitely have to go see the rapeseed flowers my brother planted!”
……
When the audience was very excited, Gu Juntian quickly finished planting Zhou Qinghao’s plot and then hurriedly went to plant his own.
While planting, he ran into Zhou Qinghao.
His plot was the second to be finished, while the others… even Hu Bingshan and Qin Yanming had only planted half.
Hu Bingshan couldn’t help but say, “Gu, your speed in planting is too fast. Have you practiced before?”
Gu Juntian laughed, “I think I might have been a farmer in my past life.”
After chatting with Hu Bingshan for a bit, Gu Juntian and Zhou Qinghao went to eat together.
Zhou Qinghao finished planting his field first; he could eat six dishes, and Gu Juntian could eat five—enough!
However, Gu Juntian thought Zhou Qinghao was working too hard, “Why are you working so seriously? Some tasks can be left to me!”
Zhou Qinghao looked at Gu Juntian and couldn’t help but smile.
The people in the live stream went crazy again; Zhou Qinghao’s smile was just too good-looking!
“Brother is so handsome!”
“Ahhh! Drooling over the screen!”
“Brother’s beauty is out of this world!”
……
And amidst such praise, a small group gradually grew.
The rich second generation who was good at farming and the top-tier star who was also good at farming really made a great pair.
Throughout the day, the interactions between Gu Juntian and Zhou Qinghao seemed very sweet to some people.
As for the guests present, except for Qiao Qiao, the others didn’t think much of it.
They were too tired to pay attention to Gu Juntian and the others.
As for Qiao Qiao… he took a moment to send a message to Zhou Qinghao: “Did you know that Gu Juntian’s father doesn’t like him at all?”
Zhou Qinghao: “…” Of course he knew, he also knew that Gu Juntian had gone into debt for Qiao Qiao.
