Chapter 185 The Rural Girl in "Metamorphosis" 28
The staff were a little surprised after checking the suitcases because there was nothing that needed to be removed. On the contrary, the staff did not expect that the grandfather and grandson had brought so little stuff.
If it weren't for the cameras, she would have asked Liu Yuxi if he had any inside information. After confirming that everything in the suitcase could be brought, the two followed the production crew's car to the airport.
At the airport, they will meet up with three other groups of guests. On the way, her grandmother asked her, "Besides Xiao Ye and his grandfather, who else is there?"
"I don't know either. Lin Ziye didn't tell me, so I didn't ask?"
"Why don't you ask? If I'm just an old lady all alone, how boring would I be?"
Indeed, Liu Yuxi felt that she had really neglected her duties. She was only thinking about her and her grandmother's trip and hadn't thought about the other elderly people.
A little hesitantly, she said, "The production team should take these things into consideration. Usually, it's a 50/50 split between men and women, right?"
To increase the credibility of her words, she even turned to ask the staff in the car, perhaps receiving the information Liu Yuxi was looking at.
The staff member replied, "Grandma Liu, don't worry. The four guests this time are two men and two women, and the other female guest is also accompanied by a grandmother."
Liu Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, then I'm relieved. After all, I can't really connect with you young people. When we go out to play, we need people our own age to go with!" Grandma Liu said.
Liu Yuxi looked at her grandmother with some emotion. People really do change. Her grandmother is starting to look down on her now. What does it mean to not be able to talk to young people? Aren't the two of them happy talking to each other every day?
They arrived at the airport quickly. The crew and guests gathered in a designated area. There, they saw Lin Ziye and his grandfather seemingly having a disagreement. The old man was sitting on one side, sulking, while Lin Ziye was saying something to him, but the old man ignored him.
Not far away, there was another group of guests, a grandfather and his grandson. The grandfather wanted to go up and offer some advice, but his grandson stopped him.
When Liu Yuxi went to Lin Ziye's wedding, she met the old man, arranged for her grandmother to sit down, and then went over to greet Grandpa Lin.
"Hello, Grandpa Lin, what's wrong?" "He hid alcohol in his suitcase..." Before Lin Ziye could finish speaking, Grandpa Lin interrupted him, "Don't I have a mouth? Why are you babbling on like this?" Lin Ziye shrugged at Liu Yuxi.
Grandpa Lin was just an ordinary old man. His family prospered because Lin's parents' generation caught the wave of opportunity. Before he went to school, he lived with his grandfather in his hometown. That's why he had many conflicts with his parents after he went to live with them. He was more like his grandfather, and his grandfather also disapproved of his parents' behavior.
"Xiaoxi, tell me, what's wrong with me bringing two bottles of wine in my suitcase? If I can't buy this brand abroad, can't I just bring it with me?"
Lin Ziye said from the side, "Didn't the production team say that we can't drink alcohol while filming the show?"
"Then I'm not filming anymore, I'm going home!"
Grandpa Lin had a serious illness a couple of years ago, which is why Lin Ziye chose to get married young, hoping that his grandfather could see him get married and have children. Later, Grandpa Lin recovered, but the doctor advised him not to drink alcohol.
Grandpa Lin is quite old, and he enjoys a drink or two, but he's not a heavy drinker; a couple of sips at a time is fine. However, he can't accept not drinking at all. So for the past two years, the family has been engaged in a battle of wits with the old man over his drinking habits!
This time, Lin Ziye said he would take his grandfather on a trip. The old man thought, since Lin Ziye is all alone, can't he find a chance to sneak a drink? At least it would be easier than staying at home, so he agreed.
As a result, when the production crew checked his suitcase this morning, they confiscated the two bottles of wine he had secretly hidden, and said that no one was allowed to drink alcohol during the filming of the show.
This old man can still stand it; at home, he can at least sneak a sip. But now, participating in a TV show means he can't even get a sip.
If they hadn't arrived in Beijing the day before and hadn't left their hotel for the airport in the morning, the old man wouldn't have gotten into the production crew's car.
"Did you tell Grandpa Lin that the live stream has already started?" Liu Yuxi asked Lin Ziye. She suspected that Grandpa Lin did not know that the live stream had already started. Otherwise, based on the behavior of Grandpa Lin that she had seen, he would never throw a tantrum like a child.
Before Lin Ziye could speak, Grandpa Lin asked, "What? The live stream has started? Weren't we not at the location yet?" Well, now there's no need to ask!
Lin Ziye quickly told his grandfather, "The live stream started this morning at the hotel." Grandpa Lin's expression changed instantly. After confirming which camera was filming him, he solemnly addressed the camera:
"You must listen to the doctor's orders, especially children and the elderly. What I did earlier was a bad example for you. You must not do what I did. That's wrong. What's so great about drinking alcohol? Your health is the most important thing, understand?"
After saying that, he asked the cameraman, "Did my words get broadcast?" Only after receiving a positive answer from the cameraman did he feel relieved. Then he glared at Lin Ziye and muttered, "I'll settle the score with you when we get back!"
Unfortunately, he was carrying a recording device, so everyone heard what he said. Liu Yuxi couldn't help but laugh. To avoid making the old man too embarrassed, Liu Yuxi pulled his grandmother over to introduce them. Another group of male guests also brought their grandfathers over.
The comments section read: "Pfft, I'm dying of laughter at Lin Ziye's grandpa. At first, I thought his grandpa would be a difficult old man with a bad temper, but who knew there would be such a twist? What he just said was so righteous and eloquent!"
"Haha, that's just like my grandpa. When there are no outsiders around, he throws a tantrum just to get a drink. But as soon as there are outsiders, he says drinking is bad and that you should listen to his advice. Look, I'm not drinking now!"
"Men, no matter how old, are all obsessed with saving face!"
The third guest is Ma Lin, a veteran crosstalk comedian. He is not old, only in his twenties, but he debuted early and has been on the Spring Festival Gala stage since he was a child. His family is a crosstalk family, and his grandfather, Ma Lao, was also a famous crosstalk actor.
Upon this introduction, Grandpa Lin recognized Grandpa Ma: "Oh, you must be Teacher Ma! I love listening to your crosstalk!" "You've been retired for a long time, and now you're just a annoying old man! Just call me Old Ma!"
Now, Liu Yuxi realized that what her grandmother said in the car was true. The two old men were chatting happily on the side, with their two grandsons following not far away, while her grandmother didn't know any of them and could only stay with her. She was now praying that the fourth group of guests would arrive soon so that her grandmother would have someone to talk to!
