Chapter 789: Birth Of A Retirement Lifestyle Streamer! (2)
Translator: Lordbluefire
Shen Ruojing had no idea that her retirement life had caught someone’s attention.
While she and Chu Cichen were fishing, some elderly people nearby approached them and gathered around.
Life in the small town was very comfortable, and the community here was close-knit, which led to everyone knowing about last night’s little mishap.
As a result, everyone suddenly developed a favorable impression of this young couple from out of town.
They surrounded Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen, eagerly inquiring:
“Little Shen, Little Chu’s health isn’t good. If neither of you work, how long can your savings last?”
“Just relying on the mountains won’t be enough. Little Chu should focus on his health, and Little Shen, you should find a job to at least support the household expenses.”
“Watching you two fishing here daily, catching fish and releasing them, it’s such a waste. Little Shen, you can pick out the big fish and sell them in the market to supplement your income…”
Seeing the enthusiastic villagers around them, Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen exchanged a silent glance and both twitched their mouths.
They really wanted to say that they weren’t poor!
But they decided to let it go.
Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen coughed slightly and nodded with a smile.
Someone else said, “Little Shen, Little Chu, if you want to find a job, remember to look for me. 1 can help introduce you. With your good looks, there will be demand for whatever you do!”
“When you two first arrived, we weren’t familiar, and with your looks, 1 thought you were some celebrities here to record a variety show!”
“Hahaha, that’s right! These rural variety shows are quite popular nowadays…”
As the villagers chattered, Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen decided to head back home.
After all, they had caught enough fish for today.
Back in their yard, Shen Ruojing changed into simple cotton clothes and began to busily work in the garden.
In this small yard, Shen Ruojing had planted a lot… of vegetables!
Yes, not flowers, but vegetables!
Shen Ruojing said she didn’t know how many pesticides were sprayed on the vegetables outside, so she preferred to grow her own and eat them with peace of mind.
Hence, she planted many vegetables in the small garden nearby.
Now Shen Ruojing was busy weeding and doing pest control in the garden.
At noon, she would pluck some vegetables, and both of them had simple eating habits. They usually just washed the vegetables and dipped them in pre-made sauce, keeping their meals light.
In the evening, Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen would exercise again. She would teach him a set of Tai Chi exercises for health, followed by acupuncture before bedtime.
The next morning…
Xiao Yi, who lived across the street, was awakened by his alarm clock.
He had been streaming live until very late the previous day, and as the night approached, more people joined his livestream.
Nowadays, many people liked to stay up late and wake up late.
Feeling very unhappy about being disturbed by the alarm clock, he decided to go live directly. He walked to his yard and raised his phone stand high enough to see Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen’s courtyard over the fence. Drowsily, he said, “Wait a moment, my neighbors are about to get up for their morning run. I’ll show you, and then I’ll go back to sleep…”
After saying that, he returned to his room, planning to take a nap and turn off the livestream once Shen Ruojing left. However, he accidentally fell asleep.
Xiao Yi didn’t really mind this incident. It was just a bet he made with his livestream fans, and besides, he had checked earlier, and there were only a few dozen people in the livestream chat, far fewer than his usual audience of thousands.
Therefore, he just slept through it.
When the sun was high in the sky, Xiao Yi woke up and realized that his phone had run out of battery and shut down.
He stretched lazily and didn’t think much of it. After charging his phone and turning it on again, he found that his team had called him several times.
Lazily, Xiao Yi answered, asking, “What’s up?”
“Xiao Yi, did you forget to turn off the livestream this morning?”
Xiao Yi was puzzled for a moment before he realized what had happened.
Originally, he intended to livestream for about ten minutes and then end it, but he accidentally fell asleep and forgot to turn it off.
He nodded, “Well, it’s no big deal, it was just a little over an hour of livestreaming by the roadside, right?”
But then, unexpectedly, the staff member spoke, “You better check the data!”
Data? What was there to see?
Xiao Yi opened the livestream app, and when he glanced at it, he was immediately dumbfounded.
The number of viewers this morning had reached twenty thousand?!
How was this possible?
His usual livestreams only had a few thousand viewers online!
Why did it suddenly spike like this?
Moreover, in the barrage, the number of likes for the phrase “so sweet” exceeded a thousand? What had happened?
With these doubts in mind, Xiao Yi clicked into the replay of his livestream.
And then, after seeing the content there, Xiao Yi was left stunned.
It turned out that this morning, Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen weren’t out for a morning run, but instead….
