Chapter 544: Chapter 543: Earning Money by Selling Strawberries to Buy Food

Soon, rational fans of Zhao Yingling came forward to resolve the inappropriate remarks made by some fans in the live broadcast room earlier, and they issued apologies in the live stream on behalf of both the fans and Zhao Yingling.

But the internet is a strange place, there are always all sorts of people popping up to say all sorts of things.

Ye Wanwan and her group hadn’t even finished their breakfast when the production team arrived, announcing their task for the day.

"Starting from today, you will need to earn your own living expenses here."

"Your task today is to pick strawberries in the strawberry garden in the morning and sell them in town in the afternoon."

"The money you make from selling strawberries, after deducting the cost of the strawberries themselves, will be the living expenses you can use."

"If we’re only going to sell the strawberries in the afternoon, how will we deal with lunch?" Zhang Xuehan was the first to ask.

The staff member said, "There’s still some food left in the fridge, enough to get you through lunch, and after you earn some money from selling strawberries in the afternoon, you can go to town to buy groceries to cook."

"Although I know the show comes with tasks, how come you’ve become even more stingy than last season? Don’t we even get any startup funds this season?" Su Tong was shocked; life didn’t seem like it was going to be easy.

"Startup funds aren’t just given; they need to be paid back to us," the staff member replied, seeming worried about being accused of being stingy again. They quickly added, "It was the same last season."

The staff member fell silent, and both parties were quiet for a while before the staff member continued, "If there are no issues, then you can head out. After all, the more strawberries you pick, the more living expenses you’ll have."

"So we don’t want the startup funds now, but if we run into difficulties later, can we borrow some?" Su Tong quickly inquired.

The staff member replied, "You can. The amount will be the same as last season, up to a maximum of five hundred, excluding special circumstances."

"Okay," Su Tong nodded, indicating agreement.

So after the staff member left, they prepared to go out and pick strawberries.

Before leaving, Su Tong asked Zhao Yingling, "Is Zhenzhen okay? If not, you should stay at home to take care of her; there’s no need for you to go."

"It’s nothing serious, just a low-grade fever. She already took medicine earlier; Zhenzhen will be fine," Zhao Yingling assured her confidently.

"Zhenzhen, are you really okay?" Su Tong, sensing that it was difficult to get the truth from Zhao Yingling, directly addressed Zhenzhen.

But Zhenzhen seemed to be clouded with uncertainty about whether she was okay, stepping back slightly and looking up at Zhao Yingling with eyes full of dependency on a close person.

Zhao Yingling’s hand stroked Zhao Zhenzhen’s little head as if to comfort her.

She looked at Su Tong with the same gentle smile on her face, "Don’t worry, I’ll pay extra attention to her. If she really feels unwell, we’ll come back to rest right away."

Su Tong always felt a peculiar sensation—as if she was the one bullying Zhao Zhenzhen, despite her actual concern for Zhao Zhenzhen’s health.

Not saying anything more, Su Tong simply nodded slightly, then returned to her own daughter and whispered instructions to her.

By the time they reached the strawberry garden, it was already half-past nine in the morning.

According to the arrangement of the production team, they had to complete picking and selling strawberries today before they could earn the money for tonight’s dinner.
