Because of the smooth recruitment of volunteers, the chaos of tourists in Jichuan Town had calmed a lot. The people of Qisheng Cultural Tourism began to plan carefully and everyone performed their duties. Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian were free. Although the two had successfully earned 20,000 yuan and it was reasonable to let the program group let them go, something had blocked Chu Chu’s pace.

In the private plot of the yard, a neat row of strawberry bushes were already bearing fruit and small green fruits were hidden under the jagged leaves. They were slowly turning to pale pink in the sun and then gradually stained with bright red.

Chu Chu squatted on the edge of the field while inspecting the strawberry fruits intently. She counted the fruits and began to observe which strawberry was about to mature completely.

Zhang Jianian was amused at her eager behavior every day, “They will ripen in a week. You don’t have to watch every day.”

When Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian were wandering in the village, they discovered that a fellow villager was cultivating strawberries. They simply bought strawberry seedlings and wanted to feel the joy of harvesting. Ever since Zhang Jianian moved the strawberry seedlings to the field, Chu Chu couldn’t wait to become a scarecrow watching the strawberry fields. She checked the number of fruits every day.

Chu Chu said, “So many people pass by in the yard every day. What if anyone picks it up?”

The staff member next to her couldn’t help but complain in his heart: You count it so seriously every day. If someone really plucked strawberries, you would pluck their head.

As the two people lived in Jichuan Town for a longer time, the program team gradually got to know the rhythm of life of Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian. Although the director wanted to set a strong plot, every time it was counter-effective, it was resolved by Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian in two hits.

The program team asked them to earn 20,000 yuan. In the end, they not only created an eco-tourism village, but also directly reversed the program’s theme and changed the general trend. 

“Boss’ Holiday” allowed many netizens to see Chu Chu’s other side. She was not as sharp and witty as in their impression. She was a person who drove the traffic of the entire network. On the contrary, she was quite lazy in private and could sit, never stand, could lie down but never sit. She was the salty fish who didn’t want to turn over in the sun.

Except for a little discomfort at the beginning, she didn’t complain too much about the poor living conditions. Soon after, she and Zhang Jianian were having fun in the village, wandering around the mountain like leisurely people. The roads for construction weren’t built. Their lives were so comfortable that they even felt that they were the original inhabitants of the village.

Zhang Jianian adapted better than Chu Chu. He successfully ignited the skills of driving away geese, selling fish, carpentry and strawberry planting. He even took the time to find a clay pot to pickle vegetables and started making sour cowpea and sour radish. In the show, Zhang Jianian’s cooking process was even more acclaimed and was specially edited out by netizens as a special edition of the meal.

Others in Qisheng occasionally complained about their living environment, but Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian seemed to be having fun. The leisurely days even aroused the envy of netizens.

When the strawberries in the field turned bright red, Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian finally ushered in the day of leaving. Chu Chu picked the fresh strawberries clean, sealed them all in a safe box and packed them all away. Zhang Jianian sorted out his recent big goose wood carvings and passed the extras to the leader as a prize for volunteers.

The two of them wandered at the door of the small courtyard with their suitcases and got a little nostalgic for a while. Chu Chu was still staring at the strawberry seedlings. Zhang Jianian comforted her, “You can pick new ones next year.”

They discussed with the program team and planned to keep the courtyard as it was until they come back next time. Fishing rods and wood carving tools were also well preserved and sealed in the small courtyard together with memories. Old Xia was asked to occasionally come to help take care of the ground in the yard, so that the seedlings and strawberries of the two would not die.

“Yeah…” Chu Chu blinked and she looked at the scene in the yard again, “Actually, this is pretty good too. We can come here after retirement in the future.”

Zhang Jianian’s eyes were filled with a soft smile and he said softly, “Okay.” 

Anyway, as long as the two stayed together, no matter where they went, it didn’t matter.

Chu Chu and Zhang Jianian left in the bus of the program group. They looked at Jichuan Town, which had gradually disappeared and they were a little sad. Some of the staff of Qisheng Culture and Tourism stayed behind to continue planning. Recently, the roads around the town had also been simply repaired and they were no longer as muddy and bumpy as in the past.

Not long after Chu Chu got on the bus, she suddenly reacted and said in a panic, “I forgot an important thing!”

Zhang Jianian thought she had left her valuables, so he looked over.

Chu Chu said worriedly, “I didn’t take the kimchi pot away, in case anyone would take it away!”

Zhang Jianian: “…” This stingy attitude of protecting food was really outrageous.

“The Boss’ Holiday” officially ended and the audience was also very reluctant. After all, it was a limited program and it was very likely that there would be no second season.

Bing Kuoluo: The show is not allowed to end, I haven’t seen the town built! I can watch one hundred episodes of the construction!
