Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 20: The Saint is tempted and devoured by thousands of poisons

As for the other dishes, they are fresh seasonal vegetables, picked and fried from the vegetable garden at the door.

Stir-fried spinach and stir-fried gourd: Maybe the quality of the vegetables grown in the countryside is really good. Even without adding sugar, they have a refreshing and sweet taste.

Scrambled eggs with cucumber: fresh and refreshing, soft, tender and smooth, delicious and beautiful.

Egg Yolk Pumpkin: Li Xiang cuts the pumpkin very thinly, wraps it with steamed and crushed salted duck egg yolk, and throws it into the oil pan to fry. The sweet pumpkin is evenly wrapped by the salty and fragrant egg yolk and is fried into a golden color in a moment. It looks excellent and makes people salivate.

The salted duck eggs are also green-skinned local duck eggs pickled at home, but there are not many left at home. When he has time one day, Li Xiang will help his grandmother pickle a few jars.

After scooping out the fried egg yolk pumpkin to drain the oil, Li Xiang picked up one with chopsticks, blew on it, and passed it to Jiang Caier's mouth.

"Mmm~, so delicious, crispy and crunchy, tender on the inside, salty and sweet, brother Li Xiang you are amazing!"

There is no sugar in it, the sweetness comes from the natural sweetness of pumpkin. Jiang Caier almost bit her tongue while eating it.

This dish is Jiang Caier’s favorite, besides the pork ribs soup stewed with the first-level exotic herb Snow Skirt White Jade Fungus.

There are eight dishes in total, including both meat and vegetarian dishes, with balanced nutrition and each one is delicious.

In fact, Li Xiang’s cooking is not pure Sichuan cuisine. He went to college and worked in the Jiangnan area, and was slightly influenced by that area. Although the cuisine is a mix, it’s delicious.

Grandma is old, so it's better for her to eat light food. Jiang Cai'er, on the other hand, is not picky about food and is a pretty easy-to-feed girl.

And it is good to eat some dishes that are different from local specialties occasionally to change the taste. When people travel to other places, they must taste the local dishes.

The "family of three" had their meal in the pavilion in the backyard, with a large table full of food, and they were having a great time.

Halfway through the meal, Li Xiang suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I forgot to buy one thing."

"What's missing?" Jiang Cai'er asked suspiciously, and suddenly she said "Oh" softly, "Not enough wine!"

With such a sumptuous meal, it would seem like Brother Li Xiang is missing a bit of his soul if he doesn’t drink some wine, haha.

Jiang Caier shouted, "Why don't I go home and get some. My father has a few jars of good wine hidden away."

Li Xiang waved his hands quickly. How could that be possible? He hadn't even bought wine for Uncle Jiang, so how could he steal someone else's wine? According to Jiang Cai'er's personality, she would definitely go back and get it directly.

He wasn't talking about wine, but drinks that girls drink.

When you invite girls to dinner in big cities, you have to provide them with juice and milk tea. In the countryside, the conditions are still lacking.

So he apologized, "I bought some vegetables at the makeshift market in the grove this morning, and forgot to bring you a drink."

Jiang Caier narrowed her eyes: "I don't drink those, it's easy to gain weight!"

I thought to myself that Brother Li Xiang really dotes on me and even thought of buying me a drink.

……

In the following days, Li Xiang and Jiang Caier also filmed a drama version of a "short play". Since sometimes both of them had to appear on camera, grandma also joined the ranks of photographers.

But grandma didn't know how to shoot, so Jiang Caier taught her everything, and it took several days to shoot this short play. The production cost was just a few meals.

The location was mainly chosen in the backyard of Li Xiang's house, because the backyard was transformed by him into an ancient style, and next to the lush back mountain, there was no trace of modernity.

Li Xiang plays a swordsman from the Central Plains, carrying a Gaomi sword on his back. He wears tattered clothes made from old clothes at home and a bamboo hat. It must be said that with Jiang Caier's careful dressing up, this swordsman looks very realistic and chivalrous, and his style is a bit like the Yellow River Hero played by Mr. Yu Chenghui.

But it is really handsome! It looks much more masculine than those men's Hanfu sold on the market. Those men's Hanfu sold on the market are more or less feminine. And too gorgeous, not down-to-earth enough.

Jiang Caier plays a Miao saint woman, and the two fall in love at first sight.

After a short sweet time, the swordsman from the Central Plains had to leave the Miao village and return to the Central Plains because of something. There would be a martial arts conference there, and it was said that the saints of all sects would attend.

Unfortunately, the Miao Saint could not leave. She could not leave the village, which was the fate of every generation of Saints. In order to prevent the Central Plains swordsman from falling in love with someone else, the Miao Saint... secretly gave her lover a love flower Gu, also known as Tongxin Gu.

This is a poisonous Gu that every Miao girl possesses. One male and one female, they are raised in the body since childhood, and survive on the Miao girl's blood and sweat. They can sense the Miao girl's emotions. When the Miao girl is emotional, the Tongxin Gu will show its ability and be used by the owner.

If a Miao girl meets a man she loves, she will send the male Gu into the man's body if necessary.

The swordsman was unaware and left.

And then... no more.

The main reason was that it was the first time to shoot such a short drama, so I had no experience, and my grandma was slow to learn how to shoot, so I didn't have time. Jiang Caier had to go back to school!
Therefore, only the first episode of this short drama "The Saint is Moved by Thousands of Poisons" was uploaded.

Although we know it is a plot and the acting is very immature, the men are so handsome and the women are so pretty that everyone still gets excited watching it...

On the last day of National Day, Li Xiang's number of fans exceeded 60,000, which was beyond expectations.

The villagers were also very enthusiastic, and Li Xiang became one of the main topics of conversation after dinner.

Someone joked that Jiang Caier should just marry Li Xiang.

Li Xiang quickly explained: "It's just a short play, it's necessary for the plot, don't take it seriously. Cai'er is still young and still in high school, so don't say anything nonsense."

Everyone is still counting on Li Xiang to bring products to the market in the future, so it’s time to stop.

Jiang Caier, on the other hand, was quite playful. She whispered secretly, "It's not like we can't get married." She rolled her eyes at Li Xiang and said, "Look how nervous you are!"

He sneaked up to Li Xiang and said, "Brother, are you afraid that I will put a curse on you? I haven't learned it before, so you don't have to worry. Haha."

Li Xiang gently tapped her smooth forehead, asking her to be serious.

……

More than a thousand kilometers away, Li Xiang's former colleagues saw that Li Xiang's account was thriving, and naturally many of them felt jealous.

Even Chen Huanhuan, who was on good terms with him, became jealous.

However, Chen Huanhuan's sourness is different from others.

Others think that Li Xiang has gained so many fans without realizing it. Is he really going to become successful?

Someone sneered: "It's only 60,000 fans, and other big Vs have millions or even tens of millions of fans."

"That's right. In front of the super V, he, Li Xiang, is still a little Karami."

"Besides, even if he has fans, can he cash in on them? Is he going to sell those pickles from his hometown? Haha! How much money can he make from that?"

"In such a remote place, would anyone ask him to insert a commercial? No way!"

"That Miao girl must be a fake Miao girl, and she's probably beautified. The real one is definitely not that pretty!"

"Yeah, how can you trust the beauties on the Internet? Maybe she's an old lady pretending to be one. It can't be his mother, haha."

As for Chen Huanhuan, she was just jealous...that was all.

Chen Huanhuan was silent. It turned out that he had such a beautiful girl. No wonder he looked down on me.
