The next morning, Xu Sansheng was the first to get up. He was holding a toothbrush. As soon as he walked out of the house, he saw the program team staff outside the courtyard setting up various camera equipment and eating breakfast.
"Good morning!" Xu Sansheng smiled. I thought that I had already woken up early enough. I didn't expect that you guys would wake up earlier than me!”
After hearing Xu Sansheng's words, all the staff members at the scene burst out laughing. The director at the side waved his hand and said,"Do well today. If you have any songs you want to sing, feel free to sing them. We will keep your footage intact and present it to the audience in front of the television.”
"Thank you, director. I'll definitely perform well.”
Xu Sansheng knew that it was not easy to get a promise from the director. In reality shows, the director would not promise you anything. All the scenes had to be fought for by the guests themselves.
Not to mention that he only had a D-rank variety skill. Compared to He Ji and Huang Lei, who had an A-rank variety skill, the gap was huge.
Fortunately, he had the A-level singing skill given by the system. After playing and singing the two songs last night, he successfully captured everyone present and added many outstanding scenes.
After washing up, he took out the rice from the kitchen and was about to wash it to cook breakfast when He Jiong walked out with two dark circles under his eyes.
"Teacher He, what's wrong with you? Did you not sleep well last night?"
Upon hearing Xu Sansheng's question, He Jiong recalled the snoring from last night and said unhappily,"Last night, Teacher Huang snored. Sometimes the train passed the cave, and sometimes the ship blew its horn. I didn't fall asleep until after midnight.”
"By the way, I saw that you slept quite soundly last night. How did you hypnotize yourself to fall asleep?”
Xu Sansheng shrugged and took out two small earplugs from his pocket.""I'm a light sleeper. When I came to participate in the show, I specially bought two pairs of earplugs.”
He Jiong suddenly realized, and then an expression of miscalculation appeared on his face. He said angrily,"Why didn't I think of that?"
Xu Sansheng laughed and said," It's okay. I have a new pair of earplugs in my bag. I'll give them to you later. Then, you won't have to worry about Teacher Huang's snoring!"”
Thank you!
He Jiong patted Xu Sansheng's shoulder in relief and thanked him. Then, he looked at the rice in the pot in his hand and asked curiously,"Are you preparing breakfast?”
"Well, I saw that you guys weren't awake yet, so I prepared to cook porridge first. When you guys wake up, you can have breakfast.”
"Do you need help?"
Xu Sansheng shook his head as he dug out the rice.""No, I can do it alone. Go wash up. You can eat the porridge after it's cooked.”
"Good child, you've worked hard."
Now, He Jiong was sincerely satisfied with this hardworking and versatile newcomer. Last night, he even secretly ran to the director with Huang Lei to ask him to give Xu Sansheng more shots so that the show could be loved by the audience when it was broadcast.
Salty congee was a way of eating in the southern coastal areas. Especially since Xu Sansheng's hometown was in the southern Fujian region, the habit of eating salty porridge was even more popular.
He soaked the rice in water, then took out a pot and poured an appropriate amount of water. After that, he exchanged 50 corns for some lean meat from the director. Then, he went to the vegetable field to pick some fresh vegetables and carrots and cut them into cubes.
When cooking porridge, the most important thing was the heat. First, the rice was boiled over a large fire, then slowly boiled over a small fire. Moreover, he used a spoon to stir it to prevent the rice paste from settling at the bottom.
When the rice was boiled, Xu Sansheng put in the lean meat cubes that had been removed from the fishy smell. When the porridge became sticky, he added the vegetables and some fine salt.
Not long after, a steaming, savory porridge with a strong aroma was served.
"It smells so good!"
After washing up, He Jiong stood behind Xu Sansheng and smelled the savory porridge. His stomach suddenly let out a hungry groan.
Looking at He Jiong's embarrassed expression, Xu Sansheng smiled and scooped a bowl for him. He instructed,"Be careful, it's hot."
Yes!
After receiving the porridge, He Jiong couldn't wait to pick up the spoon and start eating.
As soon as it entered his mouth, the fragrant texture of the glutinous rice and the hint of saltiness instantly washed away his sleeping taste buds. Coupled with the fact that the fishy smell had been removed, the comfortable diced meat and vegetables matched together, making He Jiong's taste greatly increase.
At this moment, Huang Lei walked out of the house and stretched. He smelled the fragrance in the air and a stunned expression appeared on his face.
"Salty porridge?"
"Yes, I saw that you were still sleeping this morning, so I thought of making breakfast. You can eat it when you wake up!”
Seeing Xu Sansheng bring a pot of salty porridge to the table under the awning, Huang Lei walked over with interest. He quickly scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth to taste.
"Uh, it's delicious!"
Huang Lei's eyes lit up. He gave Xu San Sheng a thumbs up and said,""It's much more delicious than what I cook. It seems that we have another chef in charge of cooking in the future.”
Then, he put down the spoon and said to He Jiong,"Eat less. You're so thin and your appetite is so big. Can you leave a way for us fatties to live?”
When He Ji, who was eating, heard this, he rolled his eyes at Huang Lei and said unhappily,"Go, go…Hurry up and wash up. Don't disturb me from eating. My natural physique of not being fat is something that you fatties can't envy.”
Puchi!
He Jiong and Huang Lei bickered with each other, causing Xu Sansheng, who was watching from the side, to laugh.
"Ding ling ling…Ring ring ring…"
Just as the three of them were having a good time, a phone suddenly rang in the room.
"I'll go get it. You guys eat first."
Xu Sansheng put down his bowl and chopsticks and walked into the house.
"Hey! Hello! Who is it?"
"Hello, is this the mushroom house?”
"Yes,"
"Oh! I want to order."
Listening to the voice on the phone, Xu Sansheng naturally knew that this was a guest arranged by the director, so he smiled and said,"Sure, what do you need?”
"Give me a serving of Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup, a serving of Four Happiness Meatballs, and a serving of Dongpo Pork.”
"Hey... Hey... What did you say? I can't hear you clearly.”
Such a shameless request made Xu Sansheng express that this was not a five-star hotel. He pulled the phone away from his ear, hung up, and walked out.
He Jiong was scooping up the third bowl of salty porridge when he saw Xu Sansheng walk out of the house. He asked in confusion,"Who is it?"
Xu Sansheng was speechless." I don't know which guest is so shameless. He actually asked us to prepare Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup, Four Happiness Meatballs, and Dongpo Pork early in the morning." Let me hang up."
Hearing this, He Jiong and Huang Lei looked at each other and said in unison,"You are indeed shameless."
" Don't let me know who it is," Huang Lei said angrily through gritted teeth." Otherwise, I will teach him a lesson." Buddha jumps over the wall? When the time comes, I'll make it jump over the wall like a dog.”
He Jiong nodded in support and said,"Sure, Teacher Huang. We'll use the broom to chase them out! He ordered such expensive dishes early in the morning, and he wasn't afraid that he would be stuffed.”
Xu Sansheng, who was standing at the side, smiled and encouraged,""When the time comes, I'll hand you a broom. You must chase them out. Otherwise, we'll have to struggle in the cornfield for a long time.”
"Yes... That's right."
"Ding ling ling, ding ling ling…"
The phone in the room rang again. He Jiong volunteered to stand up and said,"I'll go pick it up. I want to see which shameless fellow it is."
After saying that, he excitedly ran into the house, leaving Xu Sansheng and Huang Lei sitting calmly in the pergola and enjoying the salty porridge.
