[qqq: I was worried that Yaoyao and Meimei wouldn’t have enough to eat, but now I’m finally relieved. I don’t know how long I’ll be here this time, I just hope my babies won’t be hungry! ]
[A smile makes you look ten years younger: It was too easy for Meng Yao's group to get the food. I don't think it's that easy for Meng Qingqing. They'll probably have to eat up all the food they have today.]
[Exaggeration: Who can Meng Qingqing blame? It's Li Jin's fault for his foul mouth. They complain about the food they are given. Who would be willing to give them food? Just starve. You deserve it!]
[Jinjin: Li Jin is getting worse and worse. He shouldn't have participated in this program. It would be better for him to go back to his villa and eat Lafite!]
[Little Reasoning Genius: No one is paying attention to the return stone? Who knows what it is? The program team didn’t explain it!]
[Ranwu: That’s hard to guess. Didn’t the kid say that there are stones everywhere in Stone Village?]

Dinner is still easy to solve. Just wash the fruits and vegetables and pair them with two bagged breads.
As for the "warmth" brought by the tour guide, it is still staying obediently in the kitchen.
"Senior Meng Yao, what do you think of this trip today?"
Meng Yao shook her head and slowly wiped the tomato juice that accidentally stained her fingers: "It's only the first day, don't be anxious."
“I don’t know if other groups have any clues.”
Meng Yao changed to a comfortable position and crossed her legs: "Who knows?"
"Are we going to continue searching tomorrow? Should we lock on a specific location and start the search?"
Meng Yao was playing with the pebbles in her hand. She said slowly, "The information we have now is really limited, and it's not easy to determine the scope."
Han Mei thought about it and nodded.
"Don't be too anxious. Life here is actually pretty good. Just enjoy it while you look for a job."
Han Mei's earlobes began to turn red, not knowing what he was thinking about. After a while, he hummed softly.

"Hi, Meng Yao! Han Mei!" The tour guide was standing under a row of poplar trees in front of the village entrance, still holding the cattail leaf fan in his hand.
Meng Yao and the other person walked over.
"How will you be here?"
The tour guide pretended to be bored and said, "How can you not be bored if you stay in the room all day? I tell you, it's the most interesting outside. If you have nothing to do, come out and take a look!"
“We’re out there almost every day.”
"why?"
"Aren't you asking without knowing the answer?"
The tour guide was still smiling, but suddenly his smile paused. His eyes stopped on Meng Yao's arm, which was covered with mosquito bites. The red spots on her fair arm were extremely glaring.
The tour guide looked at Han Mei again, and her situation was similar to Meng Yao's.
He was slightly surprised and asked, "You guys have been feeding mosquitoes a lot these past two days, right?"
Meng Yao nodded: "There are a lot of mosquitoes at night."
The tour guide smacked his lips and said, "They are two poor little ones..."
He dug out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and threw it to Meng Yao: "It's for fumigating mosquitoes. Take it. You're welcome."
Meng Yao held the medicine in her hand with a complicated look.
Han Mei asked: "Are you... helping us?"
The tour guide raised his eyebrows: "Yes, the program team can't provide any help to the guests, but I'm about to resign."
Meng Yao had a complicated expression: "Can I tell you this?"
"I'll be gone after this episode. No matter how fast the production team works, they won't be able to find a new tour guide right away."
"So you are fearless?"
The tour guide fanned himself twice and said, "That's a pretty accurate description."
"In that case, could you give me a little more hint?"
"Give me a little more?" The tour guide thought for a moment and suddenly said with a smile, "I've given you a lot. It's up to you guests to decide how much to give."
"And let me tell you, the environment here is pretty good. Why rush back? You also feel how good it is here, right?"
"Are you right, Meng Yao?"
He suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked over at me intently.
For some reason, Meng Yao always felt that there was other meaning in his words, as if he was hinting at something.
"I think so too." The tour guide continued: "Try to blend into the environment, and maybe you will gain something unexpected."
Han Mei wanted to ask something, but he remained silent.
"Talking is tiring, let's talk tomorrow!"
"Blend into the environment..." Meng Yao stared at the pieces of gravel on the ground and murmured.
After this, many villagers still came to offer food, but they refused it this time. They already had a lot of food, and if they continued to store it, it would inevitably go bad and waste food.
Since there were no specific clues, they could only search every corner of the village carefully.
The horn sounded.
Not long after walking along the small bridge, we met the village chief, a kind old man with a beard.
"Are you guys here for fun?"
Meng Yao nodded: "Yes, the village is beautiful."
The village chief rode a green three-wheeled electric car and invited us enthusiastically: "The spinach in the field is ripe. I want to go pick some spinach. Are you interested in taking a look?"
For some reason, Meng Yao recalled what the tour guide had said.
Try to integrate into the environment, maybe you will get unexpected gains...
Meng Yao smiled and nodded: "Of course I'd love to."
Han Mei certainly had no objection to Meng Yao's decision.
The two got in the car together.
We went around several small paths and finally stopped at a field.
"This large area is all our Shitou Village's land. Look, the crops are growing so well."
From a distance, it looks lush green, growing well and full of vitality.
Meng Yao nodded.
Then the two followed the village chief to the spinach field of the village chief.
An old woman wearing a headscarf came over, she must be the village chief's wife. The one behind her holding a water bottle must be the village chief's daughter-in-law.
"This is..." Wang Lan re-tied the headscarf on her forehead: "Are these two the celebrities who came to the village to take pictures?"
Xie Ying came over and said with a smile, "Mother-in-law, these two are celebrities. I've seen them on TV quite a lot. Have you forgotten the drama you were watching before? It was starred by this female celebrity."
Wang Lan suddenly realized and rubbed her eyes: "No wonder she looks so familiar, girl, you played Fu Yue, right? I love watching that drama."
She gave a thumbs up as she said, "Great acting."
"You are too kind. I am Meng Yao."
"This young man looks familiar, too."
Han Mei also introduced herself.
Wang Lan nodded repeatedly and asked the village chief, "Why did you drag them into the field? The sun is so hot. Didn't those two stars not stand it yesterday?"
The village chief had a complicated expression on his face, and he stammered, "I want them to come over to the fields and walk around. It will take them a long time to walk."
Seeing the village chief's attitude, Meng Yao instantly realized that she had come to the right place.
I guess it was the program crew that arranged for the village chief to take them to the fields.
