Chapter 1427: Chapter 1331: Pulling Radishes Together with Gu Qichen

The next step was to find radishes.

Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen visited several households without finding any that grew radishes.

After going in circles for a long time, Xia Yangyang only felt more and more pain in her ankle.

But in front of Gu Qichen, she endured it without showing any sign of discomfort.

It seemed like they had already toured half of Yunya Village’s estates.

Eventually, they ran into Li Wenwen and He Qiming.

Li Wenwen said they had just passed a radish field.

And then she gave them directions.

Sure enough, Xia Yangyang soon found the farmer’s house.

This farm specialized in growing radishes.

Moreover, they were all grown in greenhouses, a vast expanse of white structures.

Inside was a shimmering sea of green.

Xia Yangyang was delighted.

The owner happened to be in the field.

Luckily enough, also pulling up radishes.

Xia Yangyang went over and explained her purpose.

The owner looked Gu Qichen and Xia Yangyang up and down, speaking in a heavy dialect, "You can have radishes, but I can’t just give them to you for nothing. I see you both are young and strong. If you can pull out all the radishes in this section, you can take as much as you want back with you."

Xia Yangyang couldn’t understand the dialect. In the end, it was the camera operator who translated for her, and only then did Xia Yangyang understand clearly.

But Xia Yangyang, looking at the vast radish fields, fell into an abyss of worry.

Although pulling up radishes wasn’t a difficult task,

to pull up all the radishes in this large field, how much time would it take?

The show’s task was to return by five o’clock in the afternoon.

But Xia Yangyang always felt that just this field of radishes would keep them busy until dark.

Moreover, they still had to find other ingredients.

It was said that these ingredients would determine tomorrow’s task.

Xia Yangyang asked, "Can we trade something with you instead?"

Xia Yangyang rummaged through her backpack.

It seemed there wasn’t anything inside that could be traded.

And she never wore any jewelry on regular days.

But the man said, "I don’t want anything else, I just need someone to help me pull up the radishes. If you’re willing, stay and pick any radish you want. If not, feel free to leave, I won’t force you."

Xia Yangyang glanced at Gu Qichen.

In the end, they resigned themselves to stay and pull up radishes.

The radishes here were somewhat different from those Xia Yangyang had seen in the countryside before.

The soil here was special, like a kind of sandy loam, quite hard.

Therefore, pulling up the radishes was actually a lot more effort than imagined.

Xia Yangyang had only pulled up a dozen or so and already felt physically drained, drenched in sweat.

On top of that, her ankle was throbbing with pain.

Meanwhile, Gu Qichen wasn’t faring much better.

He was the big boss of a conglomerate, who at best occasionally cooked.

He had never done such physical labor.

And the sandy loam got his clothes all dirty and messy.

Gu Qichen’s frown became even more pronounced.

However, it wasn’t long before,

Gu Qichen came over to Xia Yangyang.

Gu Qichen said to Xia Yangyang, "Take a rest for a while, don’t exert yourself too much, leave the rest to me."

Xia Yangyang was quite touched in her heart.

But she said with a smile, "You’re already struggling to take care of yourself, no need to worry about me. I’m fine. And don’t underestimate me, I’m a black belt in Taekwondo, I’m not any weaker than you."

The two of them ended up working until noon.

The production team provided lunch.

It was brought over by an assistant.

The radish field owner went back for lunch as well.

Before leaving, he warned Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen, "Don’t leave until all the radishes are pulled up, otherwise I won’t give you a single one."
