Chapter 191 The Rural Girl in "Metamorphosis" 34
Since we left in the late morning, we couldn't make it back to the guesthouse by noon. So, on the owner's recommendation, we found a small restaurant for lunch, which, according to the owner, was delicious, cheap, and had local specialties.
Indeed, no matter where you travel, you must have a reliable local guide; there is a big difference between online travel guides and reality.
After dinner, everyone returned to the guesthouse. The elderly went to rest, while a few young people whispered on the first floor. Lin Ziye asked, "We still have 368 yuan left. What do you guys think we should do tonight?"
Liu Yuxi: "We can go to the market to buy groceries now. I'll cook dinner. 300 yuan should be enough. We'll set aside the ingredients for tomorrow's breakfast and use the rest for dinner."
Ye Qing and Ma Lin nodded in agreement. Everyone was genuinely grateful to the guesthouse owner's family. It was their first time taking their grandparents out, and they had no experience. The budget given by the production team at the beginning was also insufficient. To be honest, if it weren't for the owner's cooperation for the first two days, they would have incurred much more expenses after getting off the plane. Therefore, everyone was eager to treat the owner's family to a meal.
After discussing it, the group headed to the market and bought chicken, fish, pork, ribs, eggs, shrimp, and beef brisket. They also bought some vegetables, and remembering the owner's two children, they bought some sweet potatoes and apples as well. After returning home, they each went back to their rooms to wash up, as it was still too hot.
Several elderly people got up at this time, and after learning about the young people's plans, they wholeheartedly supported them and helped prepare the ingredients.
Lin Ziye called the guesthouse owner and invited his family to dinner that evening. The owner initially declined, but Lin Ziye was good at talking, and eventually the owner was persuaded to bring his family over for dinner.
Liu Yuxi got busy. These past few days, she had been having lunch with her boss, so she had a general idea of what her boss liked. She just needed to prepare a few dishes to suit the tastes of the elderly and children, and that would be all. For Liu Yuxi, this was a piece of cake.
When the boss and his family arrived, the food was almost ready, and everyone sat down. The boss had also brought a few bottles of wine. Grandpa Lin and Grandpa Ma's eyes lit up when they saw the wine, but Lin Ziye's words, "It's a live broadcast!" deflated the two old men! Yes, they couldn't give the wrong impression in public; it wouldn't be interesting, not interesting at all.
Grandpa Lin: "I won't drink. I'm filming a show, how can I drink? We'll have a couple of drinks next time we come to visit." "Yes, we'll drink next time!" Grandpa Ma chimed in. Seriously? They're practically throwing the pot on the ground if they can't get a drink!
The young men looked at the two old men with amusement, but since it was best not to drink during a live stream, they all nodded in agreement, "Indeed, it's not good to drink during a live stream, brother. We'll drink next time we come."
The boss knew there were many things to pay attention to when filming a show, and since everyone had said so, he didn't insist: "Then take these bottles of wine back and try them. They're local wines, you can't buy them anywhere else. I'm not bragging, but they taste really good."
Seeing the elder brother's sincerity, everyone accepted the invitation and expressed their gratitude. The meal was enjoyed by both host and guests, and after dinner, everyone sang songs in the living room before the owner took his wife and children home.
The group packed their luggage early, washed up, and rested. They had to catch a flight early the next morning. The program team arranged Bangkok, Thailand as their second destination, which is a popular tourist destination for Chinese people. The scenery is beautiful, the cost is not high, and it is close to China.
Perhaps Grandpa Lin's exhaustion on the second day scared the production team, so they are currently planning to travel around China first, and then go to more distant places once everyone has adapted to the intensity of the trip.
The next morning, after breakfast, everyone dragged their suitcases and took the boss's car to the airport. After saying goodbye to the boss, the program director gathered everyone together and read out the rules for going to Bangkok.
The three-day trip, with a budget of 10,000 RMB, has seen an increasing number of Chinese tourists visiting Thailand in recent years. RMB can be used directly in Thailand, but it's still necessary to exchange some Thai baht upon arrival.
The guests need to find accommodation before the plane lands, and where they go for fun is up to them. However, since it's overseas, the production team has provided each guest with a translator.
The translator's accommodation is provided by the production team, but if the translator is to be taken along when going out for fun, then the translator's expenses will be included in the guest's travel fund.
Liu Yuxi decided to find a translator on the plane for a "surprise attack." Even with a translator, there were eight of them in total, and it would be troublesome if they got separated. Although the audience might like this kind of segment, it would be fine if the guests were all young people, but there were also elderly people, so they still needed to make more preparations.
Once on the plane, she asked the other three to book a hotel while she stayed with the translator, Xiao Li. She asked Xiao Li to look up common Thai phrases and listened to Xiao Li explain how to pronounce them while looking at the word "ji".
She has a photographic memory, and she already knows the phrases, so she's just pretending to learn them again. It's just some common phrases, and she's still very fast.
After learning the common phrases, seeing that there was still time, Xiao Li, who was in high spirits, pulled up some common travel phrases and other common phrases for everyday life and continued to teach Liu Yuxi.
Seeing that Lin Ziye and his group hadn't come to a conclusion yet, Liu Yuxi consulted with Xiao Li for a while longer before leading Xiao Li to meet up with Lin Ziye and the others. "Still haven't found a suitable hotel?"
"There are two hotels here, we haven't decided which one to choose yet?" Ye Qing replied, "One is by the sea, the scenery is very nice, but the price is relatively high, and the other is in the city, although we have to take a car to get around, the price is much lower."
"Let's choose the one in the city. It's a bit humid near the sea, and Grandpa and Grandma's joints might not be able to handle it. Besides, we can't spend three days at the beach. We'll still have to travel by car to get to other places. We can just take one day to go to the beach."
Liu Yuxi said, "Alright then!" Ye Qing was a little unhappy, but what Liu Yuxi said was also true. After all, there were still grandparents. If the guests were all young people, she would definitely insist on staying by the sea.
Don't assume that celebrities have traveled to many places. Before they become famous, they are busy climbing the ladder of success. Even if they have time, they don't have the money. After they become famous, they are even busier making money. They have money but no time. Moreover, given the situation of fans in China, it's inconvenient for celebrities to travel after they become famous. If they want to travel, they can only go to Hong Kong or abroad, which requires setting aside time for them. Do you think their management company will agree to that? Don't dream about it!
