Aunt Watermelon

Yu Miao and Shen Chun were still fighting with Director Lin. It was getting late and they did not want to walk over themselves.

Yu Miao turned around and wanted to pull Yu Su along. After all, there was strength in numbers. If all the guests agreed, the director had to take into account everyone’s thoughts.

In the end, she saw that Yu Su was already walking towards the village with her luggage.

Yu Su’s idea was very simple. The production team would not set it up like this for no reason. Could it be that they would really watch a guest walk so far? Therefore, there would definitely be some tests and tests along the way and they would change to transportation.

Even if they did not, rather than standing there, it was better to walk first. After all, on the way into the village, the chances of encountering the villagers were much higher.

When Meng Xi saw that Yu Su had already set off, she thought for a moment and chased after her. Although she was panicking as she looked at the sun that was gradually moving west, she also knew that the production team would not relent. There was no need to waste their breath here.

“Susu, wait for me. I’ll go with you.”

Meng Xi’s suitcase was very big, and she was carrying a guitar on her back. She was petite, and Yu Su watched as she stumbled towards her. She was very worried that this girl would be overwhelmed in the next second and fall to the ground.

“Shall I carry the guitar for you?”

Yu Su had only brought a few clothes and basically no cosmetics. After all, there was quite a bit of farm work on the show. Who would have the time to dress up every day?

“No need, no need. I can carry it myself. Don’t look at me like this. I’m very strong.” As Meng Xi spoke, she raised the suitcase in her hand, making Yu Su smile.

Xiao Han and Ding Chen also took their luggage and ran towards the village.

When Yu Miao saw that everyone had already left, she felt a little flustered. She pulled Shen Chun’s hand. “Let’s go too. Otherwise, the sky will turn dark.”

Shen Chun only glanced at the few people walking on foot and sneered in her heart.

“It’s fine. Why should we walk with them in our high heels? The production team won’t really lose us, so as long as we persevere, we will definitely be able to take a car into the village later.”

Yu Miao pondered for a moment and felt that what Shen Chun said made sense. After all, they were all guests, and they were all girls. The production team took into account the impact and would eventually compromise, so she did not say anything else. However, she did not take the initiative to negotiate with the director and looked like she was waiting for Shen Chun.

After all, if she succeeded, she could sit in a car. If she failed, it wouldn’t seem like she didn’t want to suffer. Instead, she was worried about leaving her friend behind.

Yu Miao did not move, and Ye Chang stayed where he was.

Yu Su and the others walked along the cement road leading to the village. Before long, they saw an old woman selling watermelons. She was wearing a woven straw hat and pushing a cart. There were many watermelons on the cart, and there were also many watermelons on the cement road.

Yu Su’s heart skipped a beat. It’s here.

She walked up and asked, “Auntie, what’s wrong?”

The auntie’s Mandarin was not fluent and she had a strong local accent. It took Yu Su a lot of effort to understand what she was saying.

It turned out that the auntie had gone out to sell watermelons. However, business was not good today, and the watermelons were not sold. She could only push the cart of watermelons home. However, she encountered this slope which was too steep, and the cart was too heavy. The auntie tried a few times, but not only did she not push it up, but the watermelons fell to the ground.

Upon hearing this, Yu Su put down her luggage and squatted on the ground to help the aunt pick up the watermelon.

Meng Xi looked at the sky and gritted her teeth. She squatted down to help.

Xiao Han did not hesitate and helped silently too.

Ding Chen, on the other hand, looked at the sky and then at the three people who were helping out. He thought that since there were already three people helping the old woman, she was not short of one. Hence, he greeted them and continued walking forward, hoping to encounter a car. He would not mind even if it was an ox cart.

Yu Su did not say anything. Everyone had their own choices, and she would not force others to stay and help.

The few of them helped the auntie pick up the still-intact watermelons and put them back into the cart. Then, Xiao Han pulled the cart in front with both hands while the three ladies pushed hard from behind.

It took a lot of effort for everyone to push a large cart of watermelons steadily up the slope.

As soon as the handcart reached the slope, a series of chug-chug-chug sounds could be heard from afar. Shortly after, a man in his thirties drove a tractor over.

The aunt waved at the young man who was driving, then turned to Yu Su and the others and said, “That’s my son. He’s here to pick me up. If you don’t mind, you can take the car and leave together.”
