Chapter 1111: Invited for Dinner
“I lived in the country when I was a kid and have seen other veterinarians work.”
Xia Xibei used this all-purpose excuse once again.
Others felt that this statement was a bit absurd. However, could there be any other explanation?
In the crowd, someone shouted something.
Nie Zehai could not understand it very well, but the words probably meant that the ox had eaten the wrong gra.s.s on the mountain, and that was why it was like that.
Now the ox had spit it out, so it was all right.
That middle-aged man, the village chief, came up and said joyfully, “Thank you!”
The ox was their village’s treasure. How sad it would be if something happened to it!
“You’re welcome,” Xia Xibei said with a smile. “I just happened to be able to help, so I did.”
“I still want to thank you! This is no small thing!” the village chief said happily to Xia Xibei, speaking in the broken national language.

Others gathered around and thanked her too.
The village was small, so everyone was very united. When the ox was in trouble, everyone was equally worried.
The owner of the ox, an old man, was so happy that he said something to Xia Xibei.
Nie Zehai and others could not understand, but they saw Xia Xibei shaking her head and saying something in reply.
However, it was obvious that her refusal was not accepted.
Then, an old lady came out and pulled Xia Xibei towards the front.
“Hey!”
s.h.i.+ Shuhang and Nie Zehai both got anxious.
What was this?
Fortunately, the village chief helped explain.
“The ox belongs to Uncle Shun and Auntie Chunhua’s family. So, to thank the girl, they want to take her home and invite her to dinner!”
Dinner?
Nie Zehai and s.h.i.+ Shuhang instantly looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
Xia Xibei couldn’t refuse the kindness of these old people, so she had to turn around and bring her team partners along.
So, the two of them followed with great enthusiasm.
This was great! An extra dinner!
They were still struggling with where to go for dinner. Unexpectedly, someone delivered the food to their door!
The show had a rule that villagers couldn’t offer help to the guests without compensation.
However, Xia Xibei saved one of their oxen!
This ox was so big that if it was sold for meat, it was worth a lot of money.
Of course, they didn’t raise oxen for meat, but for farming.
Although there was not much need for cattle now, if something happened to this ox, it would be a big loss for the village!
It would be the equivalent of Xia Xibei saving someone’s car.
In this case, if the host family invited them for a meal, it was perfectly normal!
Even the program team couldn’t find the words to refuse. How could they stop people from being grateful?
So, the cameramen looked at each other and also followed.
They muttered to themselves, this Xia Xibei was too awesome. She was really the legend of variety shows!
They previously thought that Xia Xibei couldn’t do much on their kind of show.
After all, this kind of program was not just about testing strength and luck. You had to actually complete the task in order to get food.
However, once she arrived, she gave everyone a chance to eat grilled fish.
Then, she helped people cure their ox and got dinner!
It simply made people envious and jealous!
When they arrived at the older couple’s house, the couple brought out all the delicious food stored in the house.
There was homemade bacon, salted fish, and more. They were offering their most sincere thanks!
