Chapter 221: Donkey: The Ride (13)

The director cut the camera to the face of female guest No. 11.

Round face, thick lips, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and super short hair.

The name is very common, Wu Fang.

Age 59, divorced with one son, retired.

Her introduction is even simpler and plainer than her outfit. It is really puzzling why the male guest chose her.

The four people in the small room had calm expressions, and three of them were secretly happy, feeling fortunate that the person they had just fallen in love with was not chosen.

Tang Chao didn't care. He was not a superficial person who only looked at appearance. The first impression of these twelve female guests was okay to him. Without further understanding, he couldn't make a choice.

On the stage, a female guest had already asked Xu Menglong a question.

It was number 9, just one away from his crush.

[Hello male guest, I am Ye Hongmei, I am also 58 years old this year, we are the same age, my son is now settled in Guangxi, I am quite fond of your image, I would like to ask about your health. ]

Xu Menglong squinted his eyes and looked over, seeing a woman with big wavy hair and a pure white Tai Chi training suit, and vaguely remembered what he had seen this woman before.

Her makeup was very heavy, her eyelashes were thicker than a fly's legs, and her smile was too flamboyant, which was completely opposite to the aura of her clothes.

When he saw the Tai Chi training uniform, he wanted to stop and take a closer look, but he was driven away by the pungent smell of her perfume...

[I am very healthy. I have a physical examination twice a year. I don't smoke, drink, visit prostitutes or gamble. I don't have any bad habits.]

When Tang Chao heard this, he secretly memorized this sentence. When he went on stage later, he could copy it if he was asked about it.

The camera turns to Ye Hongmei's face again, a close-up.

Her smile was somewhat forced, and she was obviously not satisfied with the male guest's answer. Perhaps she wanted to ask more about the legs and feet.

The voice of Xiao Yang, the director's assistant who was in contact with her, came through the earphone monitor. It was very soft and only she could hear it.

[Auntie Ye, don't ask about the legs, this is a senior general who retired due to injury! ]

Ye Hongmei was stunned, and the balance in her heart tilted even more.

As a senior general, he must have very good benefits. Maybe his son will benefit from it in the future. But I’m thinking too far ahead.

She found that the man's attention was obviously not on her. She wanted to speak but was afraid of exposing her hidden thoughts. She simply waited a little longer. Anyway, as long as she kept the light on, there was hope.

【Please watch the VCR next! 】

When Tang Chao heard this, his heart skipped a beat. VCR?! He hadn't even recorded it yet, so what would he watch when he went on stage?!

He turned to look at the others, who were equally confused.

[Have you guys filmed the VCR? ]

【No……】

They said in unison, all with confused faces.

[The program team discriminated against me... The director who worked with me didn't even mention this. I used to watch the programs with VCR! ]

[Don't worry about it, just watch first. Anyway, once number one goes down, we'll all have to go up one by one! ]

Tang Chao didn't say anything. The director said that this was a pre-recorded broadcast and that this program had little to do with Tang Chao, so he wouldn't tell lies.

A few people were distracted for a while, and the VCR on the stage had finished playing. The last shot was Xu Menglong giving a very standard military salute.

Of the twelve female guests, eleven were in tears, while the other one was strong enough but had red eyes.

Even the female host standing on the stage choked up, and when she opened her mouth to say something according to the script, her voice already became tearful.

The male host next to him did not let the words fall to the ground. He picked up the conversation in time to ease the touching and sad atmosphere on the stage.

Alas, I don’t know what the VCR said.

The four male guests felt like they were being scratched by a cat, regretting that they had just been fussing about something and missed the exciting part.

Female guest No. 11 raised her hand.

There was no expression on Xu Menglong's face, but he couldn't help but flicked his little finger on the crotch of his pants twice happily, but no one noticed.

As for whether the young man born in the 00s who edited the film later would be so sharp-eyed, it is hard to say.

If he finds out, his eyes will probably light up, and he'll have to do a weird finger dance, repeating it two or three times at ten times the speed, to show how an elderly person's heartbeat is expressed outwardly.

[Hello, I am from Shaanxi, can you make noodles? ]

The scene was silent. What kind of question was this? !

He didn't even introduce himself. How insincere.

In fact, it was No. 11 who forgot. She had been divorced for ten years and had been single all the time. It was a rare opportunity for her to participate in this program at the urging of her son. Unexpectedly, she felt excited the first time she went on stage. She got nervous and asked a stupid question.

Her son was also in the audience. He couldn't help but slap his forehead and thought to himself, "Oh no! His mother's EQ is so low."

[I can make noodles. I had a very good comrade-in-arms who was from Xi'an. He taught me how to make noodles, and I taught him how to make sour noodles. We are both masters now!]

Xu Menglong paused for a moment and continued.

[If you like, I can make you biangbiang noodles, trousers belt noodles, knife-cut noodles, hand-pulled noodles, pot-fried bread, sesame cakes, and roujiamo, and we can eat together! ]

There was an uproar.

His words were equivalent to a direct confession. The lady No. 9 who asked the question just now already looked a little upset.

The photographer is very good at capturing shots. No matter whether it will be used in post-production or not, he will get the shot anyway.

So No. 9's fly-leg eyelashes were once again given a close-up, and a small hill was also arched between her thickly powdered eyebrows.

I hope she won’t scold the program crew for being inhumane when she watches TV in the future.

┓( ′?` )┏

The two hosts exchanged glances and wanted to interrupt the recording and insert a commercial. The advertisers must be very happy.

But there were no instructions in the earphones, so they had to announce and start playing the second VCR.

The four male guests in the small room stared at the big screen with their eyes wide open this time——

It was Xu Menglong talking about his ex-wife and children.

His ex-wife turned out to be the sister of his comrade-in-arms. She married young and had a son, but they divorced because the man was a habitual liar, did not support the family, and often used cold violence.

In that era, it was a shocking thing for a woman to take the initiative to file for a divorce and take the children with her, but she did it anyway.

When a comrade-in-arms introduced Xu Menglong to his sister, the child was already seven or eight years old and could remember things. He was also very rebellious and difficult to manage. Otherwise, she would not have been willing to remarry.

There was no incident on the day when the two met, and I thought there would be no further developments.

As a result, the child broke his thigh bone while climbing a tree the next day and urgently needed a large amount of type B blood. When Xu Menglong learned about the situation, he was the first to roll up his sleeves and go up.

[Beat me, I don’t mind draining you dry, as long as you can save the child! ]

A man can be so passionate and save others at all costs, which shows his character and temperament.

After that, the two had more contact and gradually became closer.

A year later, they got married and became a real family.

The reason for the divorce was not at all dramatic. It was the woman's request, and she said she would never live with him again no matter what. He tried to keep her many times and even asked his brother-in-law to help persuade her, but he failed to win her heart back, so she had to agree and sign.

At that time, he still hated the woman for her heartlessness, regretted helping her raise their son and agreed not to have any more children.

Half a year later, his elder brother-in-law, who had become a thing of the past, told him that his sister was in the advanced stage of liver cancer and wanted to see him before her death.

When the VCR played this part, the female guest on the stage had already burst into tears again.

The director had to send someone to run up and deliver tissues, otherwise when recording later, everyone would have tears and snot on their faces. The scene was too beautiful and he couldn't watch it...
