Chapter 717 Getting to Work
He Jiong nodded and said with a smile, "That's very well said! The name 'New Life' has both plot implications and deeper meaning. I hope that the audience can gain something from watching this drama and find their own new life no matter what difficulties they encounter in life. Okay, we've been chatting for so long, it's time for us to get to work. Today's tasks are quite demanding. In the morning, we'll go to the fields to pull up radishes and cut greens, then come back to pick and wash the vegetables. Teacher Huang and I will cook lunch. In the afternoon, we'll feed the chickens and water the plants. In the evening, we'll make dumplings together. How about we continue chatting while we work?"
"it is good!"
Everyone said in unison.
Their faces were beaming with anticipation.
Tian Xiwei, in particular, exclaimed excitedly, "This is wonderful! I've never pulled up radishes or cut vegetables before. I'm definitely going to experience it today!"
Huang Lei laughed and said, "Then let's set off. Remember to be careful while working, especially when pulling up radishes. Don't use too much force, or you'll hurt yourself."
As he spoke, he picked up a bamboo basket and a sickle from the corner and distributed them to everyone.
“Jiang Yang, you and I will go cut vegetables together. Teacher He, you take the four younger girls to pull radishes. If we divide the work, we will be more efficient.”
"okay!"
He Jiong smiled as he took the bamboo basket and said to the four newlyweds, "Come on, my four little sisters!"
The group, carrying their tools, left the farmhouse courtyard and headed towards the fields not far away.
At this moment, the mist had dissipated, and sunlight shone on the ridges of the fields.
The reeds along the ridges swayed in the wind, and the water in the stream was crystal clear, with a few small fish swimming by occasionally.
Huang Lei and Jiang Yang arrived at the vegetable field.
The vegetable patch wasn't large, but the vegetables grew very lushly, covering the entire field with vibrant green leaves glistening with dewdrops, making them look exceptionally fresh.
Huang Lei, wearing a beige variety show jacket, rolled up his sleeves to reveal his forearms, picked up a sickle, and skillfully cut vegetables. His movements were smooth and practiced, clearly the result of his training on the show.
As he cut the vegetables, he said to Jiang Yang beside him, "Xiao Jiang, you don't usually do farm work, do you? When cutting vegetables, hold the roots of the vegetables, keep the sickle close to the ground, and cut gently. Don't use too much force, or you'll tear the leaves."
Jiang Yang nodded, and imitating Huang Lei, picked up the sickle, grasped the root of the cabbage, and carefully began to cut. However, having never done farm work before, his movements were somewhat clumsy. After a few attempts, he not only failed to cut the cabbage but also tore the leaves, and his hands were covered in mud. He smiled helplessly: "It seems I'm still too untrained; even this little bit of work is so difficult for me."
Huang Lei said with a smile, "It's okay, take your time. Everyone is like this the first time they do farm work. You'll get the hang of it after a few more practices. By the way, is the post-production of 'New Life' all finished? Will it affect the scheduled broadcast?"
As Jiang Yang slowly chopped the vegetables, he said, "Don't worry, Teacher Huang, post-production is all done, and we've passed the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television's review and obtained the distribution license. There will definitely be no delays. Now, our focus is on promotion. We hope to use variety shows like 'Happy Camp' and 'Back to Field' to let more viewers know about 'New Life' and look forward to its broadcast." (End of Chapter)
