[Xiao Jiujiu: I just came back from Meng Qingqing’s live broadcast room. With the comparison above, I really feel sorry for my brother…]
[Maomao: We must find the return stone as soon as possible. I really can't bear to see them suffer here.]
[Family gossip: No, there is not even a pot, how can I cook? Could it be that I really beg on the street like Meng Yao said? (dog head)]
[飞蛾飞火: This is really the first time I’ve seen my brother doing housework. I have to say he is really good at housework. Those who said our brother is a loser in life before, please open your eyes, okay?]
[Meimei is my wife: I agree with the above. After so many episodes, Meimei has never complained about the hardship. I really don’t know what the marketing accounts are trying to lead with! In what era do we still judge people by appearance? Are people who are a little pretty considered effeminate? I am speechless…]
…
After some cleaning, the house looked brand new and became clean and bright in an instant.
Meng Yao dusted off her hands and said to Han Mei beside her: "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's fine."
The sun sets and it's time for dinner.
Thinking about how she was still enjoying good food and drinks in the villa at this time yesterday, but now she has to face such an embarrassing situation, Meng Yao sighed a little.
I don’t know if the program crew prepared it in advance, but the well water outside can actually be used.
Without cooking tools, the only processing method available is cleaning.
After placing the washed tomatoes and carrots on the table, Meng Yao gestured to Han Mei that she could start eating.
"I really want to thank the lady today."
Han Mei nodded slightly, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Biting the tomato in your hand, the sweet and sour taste instantly explodes in your mouth.
Because she didn’t know what the situation would be like tomorrow, Meng Yao only took one tomato and stopped.
Han Mei sat opposite her, and seeing that she had stopped moving, she couldn't help but ask, "Senior, why aren't you eating?"
Meng Yao took out a tissue from her pocket and wiped the corners of her mouth: "Girls all have small stomachs, you don't have to worry about me."
Han Mei slowly frowned.
He knew Meng Yao's big appetite, how could she suddenly have such a small appetite...
Thinking of a possibility, he finished eating the carrot in his hand and stopped moving.
"Then save these for tomorrow."
"You're full after eating just one carrot?"
Han Mei nodded: "Yes."
Meng Yao was about to say something when she suddenly heard some footsteps coming from outside.
"It looks like you guys are having dinner. You got the food so quickly. That's amazing~"
A teasing voice was heard, and the next second the tour guide walked in leisurely.
Meng Yao's eyes fell on him: "Are you here to visit? Come and sit down."
He nodded slowly and said with a smile: "It's more than just a visit~"
I don’t know if it’s because he has hosted too many shows, but he always leaves some suspense behind everything he says.
"What else?"
"You can make a guess first." The tour guide first looked at the slightly shabby living room, then laughed and joked: "I remember that this place was quite shabby originally, I didn't expect you to clean it up so quickly. Don't say..."
He exclaimed: "It's pretty good."
He found a sofa and sat down, crossed his legs, not caring about the camera at all: "You two are not curious about the purpose of my visit at all, I am so sad..."
Meng Yao had heard him talk nonsense many times, so she simply didn't answer.
Han Mei glanced at him and said, "You always like to keep things in suspense. We're used to it."
The tour guide laughed out loud and said, "I usually just tease you guys, but I won't beat around the bush here, I'm here to give you a surprise."
He clapped his hands, and then saw a staff member brought a set of cooking tools.
From chopping boards and kitchen knives to rice cookers.
Han Mei was surprised and asked, "Didn't the program team say that they would not provide any help to the guests?"
"As the first group to find food, this is your reward for adapting to the environment. What? You don't like it? Then we'll collect more..."
Han Mei said quickly: "I am just confused, I don't mean anything else."
“I see~”
The tour guide turned his gaze to Meng Yao again and asked with interest: "Meng Yao, are you surprised?"
Meng Yao nodded: "Surprise."
The tour guide couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems like you are always so calm every time. It seems that Meng Yao's ability to adapt is indeed very strong."
"so so."
"It's modest."
The tour guide rolled his eyes and murmured, "Actually, this is pretty good..."
As he stood up to say goodbye, Han Mei asked, "Can the tour guide give us some tips about the return stone?"
"This is not allowed. We have already made it clear that the program team will not give any more hints to the guests."
Meng Yao keenly caught a word: "Again?"
The tour guide glanced at Meng Yao with a smile, but did not stay on this topic for too long.
He finally said: "Perhaps I should explain that these cooking rewards are not given by the program team, but by me personally."
Han Mei was slightly stunned.
"It's really not easy for you two poor little ones..."
He finally waved his hand and said, "I'll leave first."
After the tour guide left, Han Mei and Meng Yao looked at the cooking utensils on the table together.
"He means he's already given the hint, right?"
Meng Yao nodded very slowly.
"So what's the hint?" Han Mei frowned slightly: "I have no impression at all."
Meng Yao paused, her beautiful peach blossom eyes flashing with a sharp light: "He didn't specify, so let's search the village tomorrow."
Meng Yao stood up and said, "There are two bedrooms in total, just enough for each person. I'm going back to the bedroom to rest first, and you should go back early too."
Han Mei nodded, then looked at Meng Yao, his eyes moved slightly: "Senior, go to bed early."
*
After solving the breakfast problem, Meng Yao and Han Mei made an appointment to go out and check.
On the one hand, it was to collect food, and of course more importantly, it was to find out the news about the "Return Stone".
Meng Yao didn't expect to meet the old lady from yesterday again. She was still holding her little grandson, wearing festive clothes, and the gold earrings on her earlobes were very noble.
"Oh, little girl and boy, what a coincidence. How about the persimmons and radishes I gave you yesterday? Aren't they very good?"
After a brief greeting, the old lady couldn't help but ask curiously, "I seem to have seen the people who were recording the show with you. They were as neat and pretty as you! Why are you all searching around the village? Are you here to carry out some mission?"
Meng Yao's eyes moved slightly, and she asked, "Auntie, do you know the 'Return Stone'?"
"'Return stone'? Is that a stone?" The old lady pondered for a moment.
"We can only confirm that it is a physical object, but we cannot be sure whether it is a stone. Auntie, have you ever heard of a return stone?"
