Chapter 117: Sister Shang’s Happy Day
At this moment.
Sister Shang, the “Mary Sue” in Chi Ye’s mouth, was lying on her side curled up like a cooked shrimp. After seeing off Mom Wen who was concerned about her, she put on her Bluetooth earphones.
Familiar emo pure music started playing.
Her emotions sank accordingly. She opened Moments, and inspiration burst forth.
“Hmm…”
She suddenly paused, closed the Moments interface again, carefully checked if she had blocked Chi Ye, and after confirming, she breathed a sigh of relief. She opened Moments again and posted “venting freely”:
【It arrived as expected, bringing not only intense physical pain, but also the gloom in my heart that I couldn’t dispel no matter what. I seemed to have become fragile, with body aches and grievances in my heart all reminding me that at this moment, I was vulnerable!】
Shang Youshu found a kitten crying sticker pack in her treasured “Moments dedicated” photo library, pasted it on, checked for no typos, and clicked publish.
Satisfied, she nodded.
“Hmm… Reward myself by reading two chapters of a sweet romance novel!”
“Just two chapters! Hmm, just two chapters, then I’ll rest!”
She happily rolled over, wriggled a couple times, opened a certain female-oriented software, and began her “two-dimensional world” journey.
……
Two o’clock in the afternoon.
“Is everyone gathered?”
“Where did Sister Shang go again?”
“Xiao Shang she…”
“I’m here, I’m here.”
Shang Youshu had changed into a proper sun-protective outfit, her long waterfall-like hair simply tied into a ponytail, full of energy, but her fairy-like little face was clearly a bit flushed: “Let’s head out!”
Mom Wen glanced at her, saw her fully charged appearance, sniffed, and immediately frowned: “You…”
“I’m fine, I’ve full health resurrected!”
Shang Youshu was smug, her steps unconsciously swaying a bit.
Haha, mere period, ridiculous.
“Then let’s go.”
The others didn’t know the top streamer’s “embarrassment.” Teacher Huang saw everyone was out and immediately waved, heading to the place where they had to transplant rice seedlings that afternoon.
—《Mushroom House》’s daily routine: work, eat, chat, sleep.
Chi Ye and Ran Qiao, as the new flying guests this time, naturally had to go down to the fields to work too.
But neither Chi Ye nor Ran Qiao had any experience with farm work, so the two could only work while learning.
On the other side, not far from them.
The Four Great Vajras couldn’t do farm work either, but to perform more “doting” in front of the camera, the four started arguing for the Nth time.
But the chief director was furious: “Everyone can only complete their own mission.”
Fourth Prince looked at each other.
Sister Shang, who had just been recharged but was tortured to near collapse again, was greatly relieved and waved: “Did you hear that? Go go go, all of you go.”
“……Alright then.”
“Youshu, tell me if you’re tired.”
“Sister, I’ll pour you some water.”
“……”
The Four Princes left “reluctantly.” Shang Youshu’s lips curved slightly, muttering: “Do I need your help? Hmph.”
Although she hadn’t done this kind of work either, she was smart and had specifically asked someone about it before coming to 《Mushroom House》.
Hmm… should be no problem, right?
Sister Shang confidently got to work, and not long after… she was sweating profusely.
This was so different from what she’d heard compared to actually doing it…
Hmm… she was a lazy dog who was too lazy to walk and used a balance bike instead… she really hadn’t learned seriously.
Also, her lower belly was a bit uncomfortable again.
Should’ve known… after finishing the sweet romance novel at noon, she shouldn’t have secretly drunk alcohol.
She went from joy to sorrow, looked up with bright eyes around, saw everyone else working, gritted her teeth, feeling she couldn’t ruin everyone’s mood, so she kept her head down and toiled on.
While working, to motivate herself, she kept muttering: “Finish and go gossip with Chi Ye… finish and go gossip with Chi Ye…”
Motivation gradually returned, battery fully charged, getting more and more into it!
“Damn, what is she doing?!”
Chi Ye, resting and drinking water nearby, noticed Shang Youshu “chopping down” with vigor, muttering to herself, full of energy, and was greatly shocked.
“Coax herself after every two moves?!”
“Self-deceptive personality?! I’ve seen people who coax others, but this is the first time seeing someone who coaxes themselves!”
“……Yeah, Sister Shang is amazing.”
Ran Qiao next to him sighed similarly, looking at their “masterpiece”: “We’re really trash.”
“……” Chi Ye glanced at the Four Princes: “No worries, there are worse than us.”
The four princes, just from their names, you could tell—let them race Guan Yu or fight Lu Bu, that’d be passable, but make the four young masters do farm work? That really hit their knowledge blind spot.
At this moment, the four were working on the surface, but actually, due to the “resentment accumulation” from the morning, they started fighting again.
The cause was started by Second Male Lead Peach Crown Prince.
In Meng Xi Yuan, Jiang Cheng had higher billing than him, name before his. At noon, he called his team outside to buy the hot search term #Movie star first TV series role, actually rank above#.
Unexpectedly, the effect was pretty good, because Meng Xi Yuan was promoting “dual male leads”… so why did you Jiang Cheng rank above a “movie star”?
Isn’t it just because of your dad!
Jiang Cheng’s reputation was damaged, he was furious.
He immediately had his team counterattack, buying black hot search for Peach Crown Prince spitting at concert.
In the footage, Peach Crown Prince was performing well, suddenly spat a big yellow phlegm toward the stage. This had been mocked by rivals before, and now it was bought up again.
Peach Crown Prince’s eyes turned red, so he bought terms about Arthur tearing calendars on set, dreaming every day of becoming popular and beating these old traffic stars.
Fourth Male Lead Mang Taizi stayed true to his roots, ignored the two already exposing each other, directly played dumb and claimed fifth billing, even personally posted:
【Newcomers can learn is good enough~】
In reality, his team behind the scenes wildly bought paid commenters, short videos everywhere showed Fourth Male Lead crying on set footage, paired with BGM “the only pure white jasmine~”.
Cool Crown Prince, the richest among the four, frowned, thinking these guys were really annoying. Meng Xi Yuan was Cool Investment’s, didn’t they know?
He directly pulled out his phone to call his agent and the film producer.
Not long after, the few still toiling to transplant rice seedlings for Meng Xi Yuan all got the same message at once—the program ends, film crew to reshoot 20 scenes of saving the female lead highlights. Plus, Cool Crown Prince’s ending CP line to be forcibly changed to “alone and beautiful”, even more tragic!
Everyone: “?!”
Sister Shang, who had just finished work and was excitedly “tears streaming”: “?!”
The sky fell!
The first-tier top streamer who had already drunk a bit immediately got hot-blooded—everyone in the industry knows I have a good temper, but you can’t really think I have no temper!
Immediately called the set, said only one sentence: “I don’t care about changing the script, but I have no schedule!”
Film producer felt Sister Shang’s “anger”, immediately any thoughts vanished.
Indeed, Sister Shang’s temper was endlessly good, even playing with unpopular stars without any airs, but if really too much, obviously there would be a price to pay.
She was someone who could compete with Sheng Ning that “Extinction Senior”!
Film producer canceled the outrageous 20 scenes of rescuing female lead, finally changed to Cool Crown Prince alone reshooting （added scenes） 200 minutes.
Cool Crown Prince was a bit dissatisfied, but couldn’t do anything about “fuming” Sister Shang.
The matter ended there. Chi Ye and others witnessed the whole “big gossip”. Even when Shang Youshu came over again after finishing work in the afternoon, Chi Ye was still savoring the highlights.
“What are you doing?”
The two were walking back, Chi Ye noticed Shang Youshu’s hesitant look.
“……Gossip gossip gossip!”
Sister Shang looked around, lowered her voice: “You promised me!”
Chi Ye was stunned for a moment, then remembered, yeah, there was such a thing.
He paused, said: “Weren’t you not satisfied with your own gossip just now?”
“That doesn’t count, I want to hear Rise’s.”
Sister Shang waved her hand, bright eyes suspicious: “You’re not trying to welch, are you? Teacher Chi, are you going to trick me?”
“Of course not.”
“Then tell me.”
Chi Ye pondered.
Sister Shang curiously: “Tell me about Shen Qing Yu.”
“Hmm?” Chi Ye was stunned: “Why?”
“Just feel like last time… that move of his wasn’t like my impression of him. He shouldn’t have that kind of brain and wrist. Yue Na was wrecked by him alone.”
Chi Ye paused, nodded: “……Wait for me to think of one to make up… umm… think of one.”
“Not too clear on Shen Qing Yu’s last incident… but I know a bit about other things.”
He thought seriously. Shang Youshu followed tightly beside him like a silly mushroom, eyes expectant staring at him, awaiting his “big expose”.
The Four Princes lagging behind not far away, each gnashing their teeth.
“Fuck, no way, Chi Ye isn’t even Meng Xi Yuan’s male lead, and he’s still rubbing off?”
“I’m done, fought half a day, turns out Chi Ye is the real winner?”
“Eating Jin Xia’s soft rice wasn’t enough, now wants to steal Sister Shang’s too?”
“Bunch of idiots, if you didn’t mess around like this, why would Sister Shang ignore us?”
“……”
The four continued infighting.
“Got it? Got it?”
Shang Youshu was anxious waiting beside, if not minding “persona”, she’d be scratching her ears and cheeks!
Chi Ye clapped: “Got it!”
“What what?”
Chi Ye met those autumn water eyes, said word by word: “Shen Qing Yu changed sex!”
“?!”
Shang Youshu jolted, extremely excited: “Who from Rise is he with?! Could it be he followed some big shot, so the big shot helped him “slay” Yue Na… oh my god…”
Chi Ye: “?”
“Oh… no, I mean…” Sister Shang reacted, face serious: “Any other gossip?”
Chi Ye thought, said: “The reason Shen Qing Yu stole Peng Chen’s…”
“Wait a sec!”
Sister Shang pulled out her notebook printed with some two-dimensional CP, flipped to a page, seriously said: “Okay, continue, I’ll note it down!”
Chi Ye: “……”
Good grief, more serious than civil service exam?
He paused, continued: “The reason Shen Qing Yu stole Peng Chen’s toilet brush was because Peng Chen’s old partner originally fancied him first.”
Shang Youshu’s eyes widened, little heart pounding: “Continue! Continue!”
“But Shen Qing Yu doesn’t like bathing… he’s the type dirty inside and out. Think about it, he could do that thing last time, heart too dirty! Compared, Lao Peng is a bit more “pure”… so…”
“So.” Shang Youshu bit her lip, voice excited, inferring: “Rich wife grudge, irreconcilable! To get revenge on Peng Chen, Shen Qing Yu stole his toilet brush, ruthlessly making him unable to clean the toilet!”
“Mm.” Chi Ye nodded: “You’re really smart.”
Sister Shang ate it up happily, greatly sighing: “Rich wife grudge! Who could tolerate that!”
She grabbed Chi Ye: “More? Teacher Chi, tell a few more, and you’re my god!”
Chi Ye coldly shook head: “That’s a different price.”
Sister Shang: “?!”
She looked down at herself, stared at Chi Ye’s face for a while, lips curved, smilingly extended index finger: “Teacher Chi, don’t get close to hell oh~”
Finished, she put hands behind back, skipped ahead happily.
Occasionally still heard satisfied mutter of “got the real deal”.
Chi Ye: “?”
Shouldn’t that line be mine?
But she probably drank, right? How did I smell a bit of alcohol just now…
……
Everyone returned to Mushroom House, sky darkening. Teacher Huang and Ba Sa went to cook, Chi Ye, Ran Qiao, Shang Youshu and others were assigned to cooperate on one dish, Chi Ye “to cook”.
Hmm… Four Princes still glaring at each other.
Mom Wen started ordering first: “I want barbecue.”
Chi Ye shook head upon hearing: “Order something I know.”
Mom Wen looked at him: “Then what do you order?”
Chi Ye: “Order takeout.”
“Pfft.”
Sister Shang secretly sipping “hot water” already had a dizzy head, now even dizzier: “Teacher Chi, I love hearing you talk.”
Ran Qiao couldn’t hold it, pulled Chi Ye: “Chi Ge, don’t mess around.”
“Hey, I think it really works!”
Mom Wen took it seriously—though this was a mountain village, the latest season of 《Mushroom House》 had long lost the initial “primitive” feel.
Takeout really could be ordered… of course, couldn’t be exposed in program team’s shots.
“Sis really craves this, last time sis ate takeout was twenty years ago…”
Sister Shang curious: “No takeout twenty years ago?”
Chi Ye surprised: “You didn’t know? Mom Wen starts with twenty years!”
Everyone: “……”
Mom Wen smiled slightly, raised finger: “Sis alone can eat several jin, what about you?”
Everyone looked at each other.
Jiang Cheng snapped back, little tsundere stimulated, bluntly: “I can eat five jin!”
Chi Ye: “You’d better be talking about food.”
“Hahaha…”
Shang Youshu burst out laughing beside, very loudly.
“Sis… mind a bit, laughter can be muted, but can’t mosaic your face, right?”
Ran Qiao couldn’t bear watching, felt this sister was already a bit drunk and dumbfounded.
“Oh… oh… thanks, got it.”
Sister Shang reacted, immediately put on a cool face: “Teacher Chi, watch the resin.”
Chi Ye spread hands, said no more.
Finally, at Mom Wen’s strong insistence, everyone ate barbecue… of course, Shang Youshu didn’t.
Sister Shang craved it too, but feared gaining weight, finally “convinced” herself: “I’ll have a cheat meal today.”
Chi Ye very surprised: “Who is your cheat meal cheating? Yourself?”
Shang Youshu a bit angry.
Mom Wen stepped out to settle: “You can’t eat, can’t drink, got it?”
Shang Youshu wilted, shook head disgruntled, said no more.
Chi Ye pulled out mobile phone to chat with Empress Dowager, also ask about film crew setup progress.
Half hour later, Mushroom House officially started dinner.
……
Meanwhile.
Yue Na Headquarters.
Ji Hemming face dark, holding mobile phone demanding: “You sure? Sure he said that?!”
“Fuck, I just feel this matter isn’t that simple!”
