Gu Hanhan heard Bai Xue’s words and felt very disdainful.

“Miss Bai, you’re also from a mountain village. You should be able to endure hardships and stand hard work. How could you refuse to wash vegetables?” Gu Hanhan asked.

The director felt very awkward. Bai Xue’s words were completely inappropriate.

Bai Xue was also stunned. She realized that she had said something wrong. She said awkwardly, “1 mean, the weather is so cold, and the water is also very cold. It hurts my hands.”

Gu Hanhan smiled and said, “1 see. I thought you didn’t know how to wash vegetables. Speaking of which, before you became famous, did your family use hot water to wash them? Or should 1 say that your family never washed the vegetables whenever they cooked in winter?”

A flash of anger appeared in Bai Xue’s eyes. Then, she smiled and said, “Miss Gu, although I come from the mountains, my family doted on me as a child, so 1 basically didn’t need to do any work. Moreover, my elders there also said that it’s very bad for a girl to touch cold water in winter. Therefore, my family never let me wash vegetables in winter.”

She snorted coldly in her heart, still thinking of scheming against her mother. Before she met Yan Jin, she had indeed endured hardship while living as a bootlicker.

However, things were different now. She was the fiancee of the Li family’s eldest grandson. How could she still work as a nanny?

Song Meng saw that the director’s expression was not good. She spoke up, “Director, why don’t I do the washing? 1 usually cook to reward myself whenever 1 have time. This is just a small task, so I’ll be fine doing it.”

The director waved his hand and took a deep breath. Looking at Bai Xue’s appearance, he was very unhappy. This Bai Xue was really insensible!

He initially arranged for the three of them to wash the vegetables together to consolidate her image. It was normal for children from poor families to wash vegetables quickly, but Bai Xue did not see his intentions at all.

The director said, “Bai Xue, this water is warm. It’s not cold. You guys must cooperate and put on a show. Anyways, the camera will shift later. There will be staff to help you wash the vegetables.”

Bai Xue said with some dissatisfaction, “Director, we’ve already filmed two episodes. Why do we suddenly need to wash vegetables at this time? Why must the regular guests do it?”

The director suppressed the anger in his heart and said, “Bai Xue, have you forgotten your role? You’re a child from a poor family, so you’ll be more down-to-earth when you wash vegetables. When your fans see you washing with cold water during winter, they’ll feel more sorry for you. Do you understand?”

When Gu Hanhan heard this, she was a little dissatisfied. This director was giving Bai Xue special treatment.

This time, the main characters should be Gu Hanhan and the other two. Bai Xue was just an addition. The director shouldn’t let the two of them be the additions instead. Moreover, he even tried to use Gu Hanhan and the other two’s popularities to fix Bai Xue’s image. What a whimsical idea.

Gu Hanhan said, “Director, we already know that you’ve put in a lot of effort, but Miss Bai doesn’t seem to understand that. If she doesn’t want to, then why don’t you switch the role with the three of us? Let’s try washing the vegetables. Song Meng and I are fine with doing it, and so is Cai Kun.”

The director suddenly became nervous. He could also hear the hidden meaning behind Gu Hanhan’s words. This woman was questioning his way of using the three big shots’ popularities to pave a way for Bai Xue.

He knew that he couldn’t offend Bai Xue, but that was even more so with Gu Hanhan.

He thought for a moment and said, “That’s good. The three regular guests and the farm couple will go catch the chicken together.”

Chen Yimai and Qiu Hong immediately frowned. They actually need to go catch chicken? It would’ve been better if they were to wash vegetables.

The two of them glanced at Bai Xue. Every time they filmed, this woman would act like a demon.

In the previous two episodes, the guests were not as famous as her, so everyone looked at her like the devil. Moreover, she had never taken anyone else seriously.

But this time, even though she was a big shot, she did not restrain herself at all. She was still the same as before, thinking that the world really revolved around her.

Song Meng was gloating at the director’s request for Bai Xue and the other two to go catch chicken. She pretended to be worried and said, “I heard that a rooster will protect its hen and chicks, so would it peck people? That’s too dangerous!”

Gu Hanhan immediately chimed in, “Mengmeng, you’re so funny. Miss Bai grew up in the mountains, so catching a chicken wouldn’t be difficult for her.There’s also the farm couple. The rooster probably won’t have the chance to peck people, so catching one shouldn’t be an issue.”

Her words stirred up the atmosphere and made everyone laugh.

Song Meng pretended to be embarrassed and said, “Please don’t laugh at me. 1 was pecked by a rooster when 1 was young, but 1 don’t remember why. 1 only know that 1 was pecked by a rooster and I got injured from that. Even till now. 1 still have a scar on my head. Cameraman, please come and take a close-up..”
