"A woman who falls in love is inevitably a little nervous."

Early the next morning, the motorcade drove to the entrance of the village. Li Weiwei and Tiffany, as well as other contestants and mentors such as Chen Yidu, got off the car one after another.

The host appeared in front of everyone wearing local costumes.

"Welcome to Nanxi Village with its beautiful scenery and simple folk customs. Next, each contestant will live in a farmhouse under the leadership of their respective mentors. You will get new inspiration and new sparks here, and let your always elegant wedding dress The design collides with the down-to-earth rural theme, and finally a wedding dress with the most local characteristics is created for the final championship competition."

As the host narrated, everyone began to look at the countryside. The simple villagers onlookers looked at the fashionable designers and smiled innocently.

A villager drove a group of ducks past the crowd. A straggler duck ran to Li Weiwei's feet, startling her and almost falling to Chen Yidu.

A naughty kid ran over with a runny nose, and his muddy hands suddenly touched Tiffany's skirt. Tiffany looked at the fingerprints on her clothes with an embarrassed expression.

The host added: "The program team has prepared different special clues for each contestant in advance and hid the clues in the B&B you are about to stay in. However, what kind of clues you can find depends entirely on your luck. You will Use this map to start looking for your own B&B, and the first group of students and instructors to arrive at the B&B will get the right to stay. Now I announce that the finals of the 'New Wave Fashion Design Competition' have officially begun."

Everyone took the map and scattered.

On the village road, Tiffany looked at the map and found that among all the B&Bs in the village, the Fat Aunt’s house was the largest and most impressive.

Li Weiwei didn't know which one to choose, so she simply ordered her troops and generals in a low voice. She clicked on the map with her finger, and finally clicked on the fat lady's number 2: "This is it."

Both parties headed towards the fat aunt's house. Leo accidentally fell and twisted his foot. Tiffany asked a fellow villager to borrow a cart to push him and continue walking.

Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu walked around in vain. When they were about to take a rest, they found that Tiffany and Leo also chose No. 2, and they immediately ran over anxiously.

Li Weiwei, who had long been exhausted, could no longer run. Chen Yidu watched Tiffany pull away from him, suddenly stopped, turned around, picked up Li Weiwei and ran forward.

Li Weiwei's face turned red as Chen Yidu held her hand.

When Tiffany saw Chen Yidu and Li Weiwei holding hands, she suddenly became jealous and pushed the cart to run wildly. Leo was knocked to pieces in the cart.

Seeing that she was very close to the gate of the fat aunt's house, Li Weiwei suddenly slipped and fell forward, taking Chen Yidu with her and falling heavily to the ground.

Seeing that Tiffany was about to catch up, Li Weiwei hugged Chen Yidu and rolled two more circles, directly into the yard of the fat aunt's house.

The fat aunt looked at the two of them blankly: "Aren't you just looking for a place to live? You also have to get out of here. You city people are really good at playing!"

Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu found that they were hugging each other, and they separated in embarrassment like an electric shock.

Tiffany failed to rob the house and saw Chen Yidu and Li Weiwei hugging each other and rolling around. She became jealous and threw the cart aside in frustration.

Leo lay on the cart, clutching his chest and still hadn't recovered.

In the slightly shabbier yard next to them, the thin man came out and waved to Tiffany and Leo.

"Come on, come on. Although my home is smaller, it is also a B&B designated by the program team. It's just as good to stay here!"

In the bedroom, the gray-faced Li Weiwei looked at the old embroidery pieces used for decoration on the wall with a surprised expression: "It's so beautiful!"

The fat aunt said: "This is Albizia julibrissin. It is my favorite flower and the village flower of our Nanxi Village."

Li Weiwei said with certainty: "This is definitely a rural luxury product. This must be the clue left by the organizing committee."

Chen Yidu nodded: "In order to highlight the unique oriental charm, Chinese dresses often use traditional Chinese embroidery techniques on a large scale. If such exquisite embroidery patterns can be combined with modern designs, it will definitely be an extraordinary work. DU is very experienced in making high-end Chinese clothing. If you lower your profile and ask me for advice, I can actually give you some advice when I'm in a good mood."

He looked disgraced and embarrassed, but he explained in a serious manner, and Li Weiwei couldn't help laughing.

Chen Yidu frowned: "What are you laughing at?"

Li Weiwei shook her head: "No, I just saw you suddenly acting a little bit."

He wiped his face and wiped a hand of mud off, feeling immediately embarrassed.

Early the next morning, at dawn, the fat aunt woke them up to work.

Chen Yidu and Li Weiwei were sleepy-eyed and went out separately. They were both wearing peasant costumes and looked funny.

The fat aunt came out of the house with a basket and looked at the two of them: "You two are dressed like this, you really look like people from our village, and you look like a couple!"

When they heard this, they looked at each other with disdain.

When she arrived at the orchard, Li Weiwei used a paintbrush to draw the albizia flower pattern on the old embroidery piece in her notebook while enjoying the fruit.

"Auntie, it turns out that the work you mentioned is for us to sit here and eat fruits comfortably."

The aunt held a basket of fruit and stuffed it into the arms of Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu. She said seriously: "This is not a job. You have to open your belly and eat as hard as you can, and you have to choose the big ones."

Chen Yidu said: "You are too polite, we can't eat so much."

The aunt picked up two big apples, took a bite of each, and threw them away: "I really can't eat them, so it's good to waste a few more."

Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu looked at each other in shock. Before they could recover, they heard hysterical curses coming from behind: "Catch the thief, catch the fruit thief!"

When the two of them turned around, they were surprised to find the thin man next door holding a hoe, followed by Leo and Tiffany, who were also dressed as villagers, holding brooms and shovels.

The fat aunt shouted: "Run!"

Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu ran away in panic. Li Weiwei accidentally left her drawing book on the ground.

The thin man followed behind with Leo and Tiffany chasing after him.

Tiffany stepped on Li Weiwei's drawing book and picked it up. This scene was seen by Leo who was lagging behind.

The thin uncle led Tiffany and Leo behind, holding hoes, shovels, and brooms, and continued to chase.

"You shameless thieves, stop right here!"

Just when he could no longer run, a fellow villager happened to drive by with a tractor. Chen Yidu bravely stopped the tractor like a taxi.

After the tractor stopped, before Li Weiwei had time to get on, the thin man was about to catch up behind the tractor, waving his hoe.

The fellow started the tractor anxiously. As soon as Li Weiwei got on, the tractor started. She and Chen Yidu hugged each other, and Chen Yidu quickly pushed Li Weiwei away.

Tiffany behind saw Chen Yidu and Li Weiwei hugging each other from a distance. She shouted angrily and rushed forward with all her strength.

Seeing that the distance between the tractor and the tractor was getting farther and farther, she had no choice but to stop.

The thin uncle was so angry that he waved his hoe on the spot: "Fat lady, just wait for me!"

Although Chen Yidu on the tractor was dressed as a villager and looked embarrassed, he still acted like a domineering president.

He warned Li Weiwei: "Don't take advantage of me under the guise of competition again and again."

Li Weiwei replied disdainfully: "Don't worry, I don't like to eat stinky tofu."

Chen Yidu added: "I have principles. If you continue to try to get close to me again and again, first, I guarantee that you will not get any benefits; second, I will report it to the organizing committee and disqualify you from the competition. Let your hooliganism get its due end!"

Li Weiwei suppressed her laughter: "Has anyone ever told you that if you dress like this and continue to act like a domineering president, it will produce a strong comedy effect?"

He was startled and quickly started looking at the mirror on the side.

Li Weiwei suddenly remembered something and complained: "Auntie, why didn't you tell us that this fruit belongs to my uncle?"

The fat aunt was indignant: "The food we eat is from his family. That old guy bullies me all the time. I stole some fruits from him to eat, which is an advantage for him!"

Watching the tractor go away, the thin uncle saw that he had not caught up with the fat aunt, Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu, so he simply returned to the fat aunt's house and let Tiffany and Leo steal chickens from the chicken coop in the yard while showing off at the door.

The fat aunt came back and found that the chicken was missing, so she went to the thin uncle's house and went crazy.

During the quarrel, the fat aunt took a rolling pin and hit the thin uncle on the head.

Everyone was surprised and realized that the aunt's blow was too severe.

The thin old man stood motionless. Behind him, Leo slowly fell down, holding his head.

Under the tree at the entrance of the village, three people were sitting in a row, thinking sadly.

Li Weiwei held her cheek: "Auntie assigned me a task and told me to think about how to take revenge on uncle. You must have also received a revenge task, right?"

Leo touched the bag on his head and said with a sad face: "Don't you think our two teams should think about revenge separately? However, you must remind the fat lady to hit someone more accurately next time."

Tiffany had a disdainful expression on her face: "It's boring! You can continue to play country duo with the uncle and aunt. I have to go and collect ideas. Inspiration comes from outside. Sitting around is just a waste of time."

Li Weiwei retorted: "You are boring. Integrating into the people's customs here is the purpose of our coming here. Do you think you can draw a design just by looking at the mountains, rivers, flowers and plants? What is needed for artistic creation is not inspiration, but stories. of you."

Leo clapped in agreement, while Tiffany looked furious.

At this time, Chen Yidu came over: "You don't have to waste your efforts!"

Li Weiwei asked: "Could it be that you have already figured out a trick for the fat lady to win with one move?"
