Chapter 47 The show will definitely be a hit! ... (1)
An An's yellow bicycle has a bell.
The little hand gently rang it, and a crisp "ding-ding-ding" sound was heard.
The housekeeper knew that the little girl was going out, and opened the door.
Seeing this, the audience in the bullet screen were reluctant to even blink.
The takeaway girl left the villa to take the order. Not only did the housekeeper send her out, but the grandfather even drove her to escort her. This was really too grand.
Everyone stared at the screen closely, and slowly, the hands on the keyboard were taken back.
Even if Gu Yicheng and Mo Sui's relationship was not good, they had nothing to say about the child. Otherwise, how could the old man of the Gu family spoil the child so much?
Knowing that they were just playing house, the old man was still willing to accompany the child. He was so good to the child!
The anger in the bullet screen area was not so strong. At first, those who wanted to scold the child were just talking nonsense, and no one really pointed out the performance of the little dumpling.
At this time, the old man knew nothing.
He just thought, if he pressed the helmet on his head more tightly, no one would recognize him?
The old men and women nowadays are all very surprised. If the old shareholders of the company in the past saw him like this, they would really laugh their heads off.
After thinking this, Grandpa Gu decided to take his granddaughter back.
He held the brake with his hand, tapped the ground with one foot, and stopped An An: "An An, we can't deliver food."
An An couldn't believe it, blinked her bright eyes, and looked puzzled: "Why?"
"Because we haven't passed the delivery qualification certification." Grandpa Gu said seriously, "So even if we go, we can't get any orders."
An An's eyebrows slowly wrinkled.
Finally, she lowered her head and said disappointedly: "Okay."
Seeing that the child was in a bad mood, the host decided to interview Grandpa Gu first.
She passed the microphone to the old man: "Hello, Mr. Gu, An An and her parents will soon participate in our variety show. I wonder if you have anything to say to her?"
Mr. Gu rubbed An An's head: "Who can be hungry? Not the child."
The host's mouth was stiff: "No, Mr. Gu, we are really not a show that will make you hungry. It is just a show that teaches everyone to live a simple life and avoid extravagance."
Mr. Gu took An An's little hand: "Go home and eat, and go after you are full."
Host: ...
It is really not a hungry show ...
The interview afterwards was not very smooth.
Even though the host has been trying to mobilize An An's enthusiasm, it is obvious that the child drooped his shoulders and looked listless.
The host thought about it and had no other choice but to let the children take a break.
The housekeeper invited them into the living room and asked them to sit and rest for a while.
After a long time, Cen Yanjun came down from the upstairs.
She was dressed up specially.
The housekeeper has been in this family for decades and is smart. When she saw the program crew coming, she called her immediately.
Since she was going to appear on camera, she must dress herself up. She couldn't go out like her husband in a stupid yellow dress!
Now, Cen Yanjun was dressed exquisitely and elegantly, but very decently. When she went downstairs, she saw An An's depressed look.
She just took a quick look at the live broadcast in the room and knew why Xiaotuanzi was sad, so she helped to think of a solution.
"You need qualifications to deliver food, and our An An doesn't have the qualifications, so she can't go out and work as a delivery person." Cen Yanjun said, "In that case, just deliver food at home and help grandpa and grandma, okay?"
An An was immediately persuaded by her grandma.
She still had her helmet on her head, and her eyes were sparkling: "What does grandma want? An An will deliver it!"
Cen Yanjun said, "Go to the master bedroom and take down the TV remote control."
Grandpa Gu went directly to the courtyard and brought her a bicycle.
Now little Tuanzi was fully equipped again. She sat on the bicycle, pedaled hard with her short legs, and pedaled to the elevator at home.
"An An, you can't take the elevator when you are alone. It's dangerous." Cen Yanjun said.
When An An heard this, she pedaled her bike to the stairs and trotted up to get the remote control.
After handing the remote control to Cen Yanjun, she received another task.
One moment she went to the kitchen to get an egg, the next moment she went to the study to get a book, the next moment she sent a pillow to the audio-visual room, and finally she put the egg back into the refrigerator in the kitchen...
Little Dumpling rode her takeaway cart around the house.
The host was holding a cup of tea in his hand, and he was slow to get into the topic, but he didn't expect that the discussion in the bullet screen area had already become very lively.
"Great, our delivery man An An completed the task successfully." Cen Yanjun took out a piece of paper money, "This is a tip from grandma."
An An put his hands behind his back and leaned his head forward: "It says one hundred."
"Yeah, one hundred yuan." Cen Yanjun said.
"One hundred yuan is too much!" The little dumpling said in a baby voice.
Cen Yanjun had to ask Mrs. Li to borrow money.
Mrs. Li found her coin purse and took out two yuan.
An An finally accepted it.
After accepting it, she took a photo of the two coins with her phone watch.
Looking at this scene, the host narrowed his eyes and smelled the show's highlights.
In the live broadcast of the show, it should be very interesting if the little guy also tries to make money to fill his stomach like he is now.
[Does An An have a circle of friends? Did she add a caption to the photo - the first pot of gold she made in her life? 】
【Grandpa and grandma were just accompanying her, they spoiled her too much. 】
【It would take a takeaway kid 10 to 20 minutes to run around the house, but it only takes me five seconds to run around the house...】
On the other side, Mo Sui received a photo sent by An An.
Little Tuanzi is getting better and better at using this phone watch. Now she doesn't need Qiao Guo's help, she knows how to send pictures by herself.
But what do these two coins mean?
Mo Sui couldn't figure it out, so he just replied with an emoticon that An An could understand.
Anyway, he can ask the child when he meets her in the evening.
"Beep--"
An An raised her little arm and clicked on her mother's reply.
The photographer asked, "Can we take a picture?"
"Sure." An An generously showed her watch.
The audience in the live broadcast room saw the emoticon that Mo Sui replied.
It was her own emoticon, which looked like it was taken with her daughter when she was free. It was a delicate and beautiful face with pink special effects blush on her cheeks. She raised her thumb and made a "thumbs-up" in front of the camera.
"Mom is praising An'an." Little Tuanzi explained.
Host: ???
Photographer: ???
And Mr. Gu and Cen Yanjun also came forward to take a look. When they saw Mo Sui's emoticons on the watch screen, they were not surprised at all. They had already gotten used to it.
When An An chatted with them, she would always send her parents' emoticons. She
had gotten used to it.
[This emoticon is so cute, is she a movie queen? ]
[The contrast is too big...]
[I always thought she was very cold, but I didn't expect that she would use such a soft and cute emoticon when chatting with her children. Suddenly I wanted to imagine what she looked like when she and An An recorded the emoticons together. ]
[Don't give Mo Sui any heat, don't give her a single look, don't forget that she and her husband pretended to be in love to cheat traffic, it was too much. 】
...
The audience in the live broadcast room has not left yet.
Because after the program crew came out of Gu's house, they had to go to the next group of guests' house for pre-shooting.
On the way to the next destination, most people were discussing the takeaway kid just now, and some viewers were not interested in Mo Sui's house and looked forward to revealing the next group of guests.
But until the host stood outside a shabby community, everyone still couldn't guess who the guests were.
This community has no greenery, the trash cans in the community are full, and garbage bags are piled up next to the trash cans. The fitness equipment has long been broken and no one has come to repair it. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is dirty and messy.
Are the accommodation conditions for artists in the entertainment industry so bad?
"We are now at the home of a child star." The host said, "The child star has been in the industry for a short time, but has already acted in many movies. Guess who it is?"
"Bang, bang, bang—" The host knocked on the door.
The door was opened, and a child poked his head out.
[Is this Xiao Binggan? ]
[I have seen many of her plays before, and the child's acting skills are quite good, and she is very talented. ]
[She just joined the crew some time ago and acted in "Twin Cities". I heard that she played the childhood of the character Mo Sui. ]
[I have always thought that the family background of child stars is very good, only in this way can parents take them to film full-time. I didn't expect that Xiao Binggan's living environment is so ordinary. ]
Xiao Binggan and her mother Du Qianyi welcomed the program team into the house.
"Sorry, the house is a little small." Du Qianyi was a little uneasy when facing the camera. She pinched the corners of her clothes with both hands. After a long while, she remembered to pour tea for the staff.
"It doesn't matter. We are just filming Xiao Binggan's daily life." The host said with a smile.
"This is the house we rented." Du Qianyi said, "The child's father is usually very busy. He basically lives in the employee dormitory and rarely comes back."
The host asked: "So what are Xiao Binggan's hobbies? What does she do when she is not filming? Has she enrolled her child in any interest classes?"
Du Qianyi said: "When she is not filming, she will take some gg, or be a child model for some brands. Because these jobs will not be notified in advance, basically they are accepted after one interview. We have to start shooting right away, so we are basically doing interviews all the time, and the child has no other hobbies. "
The host was surprised and asked, "Wouldn't it be too hard?"
Du Qianyi said helplessly, "Little Binggan is already five years old. She is growing very fast and getting taller day by day. It is estimated that she will not be able to be a little model anymore in a while. So while we can still shoot now, we should shoot more and make more money."
The host was stunned for a moment and reminded tactfully, "Children's childhood is only once."
"It doesn't matter. Although Little Binggan is growing up, she still has a younger brother." Du Qianyi said, and said to her daughter, "Go wake up the younger brother and tell him that we are going to record the show."
The photographer followed Little Binggan to his younger brother's room.
It was a small room with a crib in it, and Doudou was sleeping on the bed.
Little Binggan pushed him.
The little boy just got up and was a little grumpy, so he cried out "wow".
Xiao Binggan got him some clothes, then ran to the bathroom to get a towel, turned on the tap, wrung out the towel after it got wet, and ran back to wipe his face.
Seeing her skilled movements, the audience frowned.
[Xiao Binggan is so busy, does she still have to take care of her brother? ]
[This brother looks like he's four years old, and he looks very different from Xiao Binggan, so he probably won't be popular. ]
[Xiao Binggan's mother took this variety show, is she trying to pave the way for her brother? A family has two child stars. They can make money from their son and daughter, and they can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor...】
The audience felt sorry for Xiao Binggan. Some people who didn't know her went online to search for her information.
This search led to the behind-the-scenes footage posted by the official Weibo account of "Twin Cities".
In the footage, the child was serious when acting, just as dedicated as the adults.
But after the director called "cut", she became lively and cheerful again, and even chatted with other children in the same crew.
To everyone's surprise, An An was also in this behind-the-scenes clip.
Xiao Binggan and An An stood together, and the two chatted in baby voices.
An An asked her what other roles she had played, and Xiao Bing Gan said seriously that she had played many roles, but they were all people's daughters.
An An suddenly realized.
Just such a small clip made everyone laugh.
Netizens made an emoticon package for the two beautiful little girls, and the text was their dialogue.
"I always play other people's daughters."
"So that's how it is."
Everyone started to play the meme - Xiao Bing Gan, if you don't play other people's daughters, can you still play other people's mothers?
The show just came to the pre-interview segment, and many viewers were already looking forward to the interaction between An An and Xiao Bing Gan in the show.
After the host left Xiao Bing Gan's house, he came to the third group of guests.
The third group of guests was a pair of rich second-generation brothers and sisters.
The elder brother is Rong Bo, who is not in the entertainment industry. He has opened several bars and hot pot restaurants and has been starting businesses, but has never been successful.
In front of the camera, he looks nonchalant, but because his appearance and clothes are both wolf-dog style that can attract fans, he is not offensive.
The younger sister is Rong Yue, who has acted in several TV series. Although they are not very popular, she has accumulated some fans. She usually has a straightforward personality, but this personality is not likable because her emotional intelligence is too low and she has offended many people. Fans are worried about her and just hope that she will talk less and act more.
Although Rong Yue is not famous and most of the audience don't know her, in the pre-interview, Rong Yue was as arrogant as a little princess in front of her brother, but even so, her brother just coaxed her. For a while, more people began to look forward to their performance in the program.
The host asked relevant questions according to the procedure: "Rong Yue, are you looking forward to tomorrow's program?"
"Looking forward to it."
"Then who are you most looking forward to working with?" The host asked again.
Rong Yue raised her eyebrows: "Can I say who I least look forward to working with?"
Without waiting for the host to answer, she continued: "It's Mo Sui. I don't know why the program group invited artists with such a bad reputation to participate. Aren't they afraid of ruining their own brand?"
The corners of the host's mouth twitched.
The show has just started, and it's going to be so awkward?
[Rong Yue's straightforward personality is not broken, speaking my mind. 】
【She has such a sharp tongue, I love her so much. 】
【Isn't she so rude? We are all going to record the show together, what good will it do for her to say these things? She is not a child anymore, she really says whatever she wants? 】
【She has reaped the benefits of her straightforward personality, the second generation of rich people are not afraid of offending people, haha. 】
After coming out of Rong's house, the host said: "Next is the last group of guests, because the female guest is filming on the set, so we won't go over and connect with her directly."
While waiting for the video call to be connected, everyone was guessing who would come?
Could it be some unknown little actor?
Just as everyone was thinking about this, the call was connected.
On the other end of the video, it was Zhang Rumeng in costume.
Zhang Rumeng said hello to everyone: "I am filming the last scene, and it will be finished today. Next, I will come to the "Only 20 Yuan a Day" program team with my husband. This is the first time for my husband and I to participate in a variety show. I am a little nervous. Please be gentle with us."
Zhang Rumeng has a very generous personality. Her simple words made the audience smile knowingly.
But at the same time, everyone couldn't help but think of the photo she took with Mo Sui on the day of the Xingyi Ceremony.
At that time, An An said that Mo Sui praised Zhang Rumeng for her beauty when they were watching TV at home. It was because of this that the two female stars hit it off when they met for the first time.
But now it's different. Mo Sui has fallen from grace. With Zhang Rumeng's status as the top actress in the TV circle, will she still be nice to her on the show?
If Zhang Rumeng and Rong Yue join forces to embarrass Mo Sui,
the show will definitely be a big hit!
...
Police Officer Fang contacted Mo Sui and told him that Fu Changming had confessed everything that happened.
After learning the whole story, Mo Sui was worried that Jiang Yuge would be upset, so he took An An to her house the night before the show started.
"Are you looking for the madam? Wait a moment." The housekeeper said.
Jiang Yuge came out of the room, her face pale and dark circles under her eyes.
She was thin to begin with, and now she looked even weaker.
Seeing that it was Mo Sui and An An who came, Jiang Yuge washed her face, tried to cheer up, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I made you laugh."
Mo Sui asked: "Are you okay?"
Jiang Yuge nodded: "Fortunately, my father kept a hand, and all the personal property when I got married has been notarized for me. When this incident happened, my father's lawyer contacted me. He said that Shenghua Film and Television alone is worth a lot of money, and I really didn't lose anything."
At the end, she laughed at herself.
For Jiang Yuge, this money is nothing.
The efforts and injuries suffered in these years cannot be measured by money at all, even millions or tens of millions.
Jiang Yuge said that the police suspected that Fu Changming had killed their daughter personally, and he was afraid that this would make him even more guilty, so he quickly revealed the truth.
Therefore, until yesterday, she didn't know that her daughter's death was actually because Fu Changming and Zheng Zhaozhao had an affair at home.
She told Mo Sui all this, as if she was telling someone else's story.
Mo Sui sighed softly.
This truth was too cruel for Jiang Yuge.
Mo Sui sat beside her and gently held her hand: "What are your plans for the future?"
"After the case is decided and the divorce is completed, I will not stay in the country." Jiang Yuge said softly, "I want to live in a different place."
Mo Sui said: "If you feel very bad, come to me and cry, don't hold it in."
"I can't cry. I haven't been able to cry these days. It's strange." Jiang Yuge smiled bitterly and said to Mo Sui, "I'm sorry, it's our family that hurt you..."
"Don't blame you." Mo Sui patted her back gently, "You are the victim."
Jiang Yuge lowered her head: "I'm not, Zhizhi is the victim. The child was so young at the time, and her father was in the next room..."
She couldn't continue, her hands clenched tightly into fists, and after a long pause, she said in a trance: "Zhizhi will definitely blame me, blame me for going to a yoga class and leaving her alone at home."
"How could that be?" Mo Sui interrupted her hurriedly, "No. Zhizhi must hope that her mother can be happy and live well."
"Does Zhizhi really think so?" Jiang Yuge asked blankly.
"Yes." An An said in a baby voice.
Jiang Yuge seemed to have suddenly caught a piece of driftwood. She gently held An An's hand, tears in her eyes: "Are you sure?"
An An nodded seriously: "Every child wants their mother to be happy."
Jiang Yuge covered her face with her hands and finally shed tears.
"Cry, it will make you feel better." Mo Sui said.
...
The next morning, An An packed up her small bag and waited with her parents for the production team to pick them up.
The production team was very punctual. At nine o'clock, Xiao Tuanzi got on the car.
They went to a small villa in the suburbs.
The villa has a name, called the Savings Apartment.
The host introduced that all the guests will live here for the next three days. After
the three-day live broadcast, they will go to the next destination.
An An had just arrived at this place and felt fresh. After walking around, he saw a row of rooms on the second floor. There
was a small sign outside each room. Xiao Tuanzi pointed to the sign and asked, "Mom, what does it say?"
"An An's room." Mo Sui said with a smile.
An An recognized her name and nodded seriously: "An An's room..."
Gu Yicheng hooked her nose: "Our An An has to learn to read."
Because they had found their own room, the family began to pack their luggage.
Gu Yicheng took the suitcase from Mo Sui and saw a double bed and a crib after entering the room.
The crib is double-layered, with a bed on the top and a table on the bottom.
The guests had not arrived yet, and the live show had not started yet, but Gu Yicheng pulled An An aside and began to brainwash her.
"An An, this bed is so high and so small. If Dad curls up to sleep on it, it will be easy to fall down." He showed a pitiful expression.
When An An heard this, her little face became serious and she turned to look at the double bed.
"This double bed is not big. If the three of us lie on it together, with mom and dad on both sides, we will fall down." Gu Yicheng said again.
An An's eyes widened at once.
This won't do. How can we let mom fall down?
Gu Yicheng's eyes were shining: "So during this period of time, An An can only sleep in the child's bed."
An An felt wronged when she heard it. She looked at her mother reluctantly, and finally made up her mind and nodded.
Gu Yicheng was excited at once and picked up his daughter: "What a sensible child!"
Mo Sui pursed her lips and couldn't help laughing.
Is there anyone who would fool a child like him?
The staff came over and reminded them of the precautions during the live broadcast: "Starting from the recording of the program, you can no longer carry your mobile phone with you. Every morning, we will give you 20 yuan for living expenses. No matter where you go, there will be a camera to follow you. You can take your children to anyone's house to eat, but because you can only eat one meal a day, we have to think carefully first. If you go to a farther place, this 20 yuan will not be enough for the round-trip subway fare." "
So we suggest that it is best to buy vegetables at the nearest vegetable market. Cooking at home is the most economical."
"By the way, I forgot to remind you that the live broadcast camera is always on and will not be turned off until nine o'clock in the evening."
[20 yuan a day, you can eat, but you can only eat one meal a day, and you live in the suburbs... It seems very free, but in fact it is telling everyone that you don’t have to go anywhere, you have no money! Hahahaha...]
[So they really didn’t know that the live camera was on before? But if that’s the case, their family gets along too naturally. The way Mr. Gu coaxes the child to sleep in his own bed is very similar to the way my husband usually wants to trick the child away from our bed.]
[Mo Sui’s expression is a little shy, not like she is arguing about divorce with her husband.]
[Be careful, don’t be fooled by their family again.]
...
The guests arrived one after another.
Mo Sui was taking An An to the kitchen to find food.
The production crew was really too strict. There was nothing in the refrigerator, not even a glass of milk.
An An stood on tiptoe and saw the empty refrigerator. She lost interest immediately. When she turned around, she saw Xiao Binggan out of the corner of her eye.
She immediately ran over happily: "Xiao Binggan, do you still recognize me?"
Xiao Binggan nodded vigorously: "Yes, I do!"
Seeing that the two children were going to play hand in hand, Du Qianyi hurriedly pushed her son forward: "Doudou, you go with your sisters."
Seeing this scene, Rong Yue curled her lips: "You really want to get away with it."
Rong Bo rubbed his sister's hair to stop her from talking nonsense, and took her to Mo Sui to say hello.
Rong Yue glanced at Mo Sui and just as she was about to speak, she saw Zhang Rumeng.
Zhang Rumeng explained, "My husband's work is not available, so he can only come tomorrow."
Rong Yue hurried over like a little fan: "Sister Rumeng, I'm Rong Yue. I've acted with you before. Do you remember me?"
Zhang Rumeng nodded, "I remember you."
Rong Yue was about to say something, but suddenly saw Zhang Rumeng walking towards Mo Sui.
She stood in front of Mo Sui with a smile on her lips: "I didn't have time to exchange contact information with you last time."
Mo Sui said helplessly, "But the phone was confiscated by the program crew."
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Rumeng smiled, "We'll be living together from now on, so it's still time to add contact information after the program is over."
Rong Yue originally thought that Zhang Rumeng was just being polite to Mo Sui, but unexpectedly, the two of them actually started chatting.
She waited for a long time, but couldn't find a chance to talk to Zhang Rumeng again, so she had to go back to her room to pack her luggage.
[Zhang Rumeng didn't even look at Mo Sui, and the two of them seemed to sympathize with each other.]
[Are the movie queen and the TV queen going to be friends?]
[Mo Sui has a lot of negative information, but why does he look more calm than before...]
...
The program team gave each group of guests a small envelope, and each envelope contained twenty yuan.
The program officially began.
Everyone had breakfast here, but it was already noon and everyone was hungry.
Mo Sui and Zhang Rumeng originally wanted to maintain their figure, but the program team had clearly stipulated that no matter what, the guests must eat three meals a day, otherwise it would be equivalent to giving the audience the wrong direction.
Du Qianyi, the mother of Xiao Binggan and Doudou, is usually frugal. After getting the money, she immediately took her two children out to buy groceries with confidence.
After a while, she bought noodles, half a pound of eggs and a handful of vegetables, and came back to cook noodles.
Three bowls of steaming noodles came out of the pot, each with a poached egg on top, and the three of them sat at the dining table to eat.
"Mom, I don't like noodles." Doudou said.
"Hold on a little longer." Du Qianyi smiled gently and passed the fried egg in her bowl to him, "Eat more."
Little Biscuit buried his head in eating noodles, slurping, and didn't need anyone to worry about him at all.
Doudou finished both fried eggs, but just didn't want to eat noodles.
Isn't he going to die of hunger? Du Qianyi advised: "Doudou, be obedient, mommy has no money anymore, and we have to eat noodles tonight. Even if you make trouble, there is nothing we can do."
Doudou almost cried when he heard it, and threw away the children's chopsticks with his little hand: "I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat! If you don't have money, let your sister earn it!"
Du Qianyi quickly covered the child's mouth and smiled awkwardly at the other guests.
[??? Let your sister earn it, what kind of words are you talking about? ]
[Is this how they usually teach their children? 】
【Three fried eggs, my son ate two by himself, it's really "fair". 】
At this time, Rong Yue and Rong Bo, holding the twenty yuan, were at a loss.
"How about asking the staff to order two lunch boxes for us?" Rong Yue asked.
"Two lunch boxes, one lunch box alone costs more than ten yuan, and now we're going to be hungry for dinner, right?" Rong Bo said.
Rong Yue sighed: "How about ordering one lunch box and sharing it between the two of us."
【How to eat this? 】
【One lunch box is not enough for me alone. 】
【I really have to count the rice grains when I eat it. Rong Yue doesn't look very smart, but I feel that her brother will stop it. 】
"Good idea!" Rong Bo nodded, took twenty yuan and went to find the staff, "I'll go ask them to help me now, a lunch box costs more than ten yuan, and a rice bowl costs a few more yuan."
But Rong Bo's wishful thinking was not well planned.
They lived too far away, and if they ordered takeout, they had to add the distance delivery fee.
"How about you walk there?" The staff said, "I checked, the nearest fast food restaurant is two kilometers away from us, and walking there can save eight yuan in delivery fees."
Rong Bo was the eldest son at home, and he had never suffered such hardships. He refused without thinking: "The delivery fee is the delivery fee, order it."
Now there are already two families who have two meals left today, and then it depends on Mo Sui's family.
No one thought they could come up with a better plan.
Du Qianyi was a person who lived a life of ease. She was already stretched to the limit with two children by herself, and had to eat noodles twice in a row. Gu Yicheng and Mo Sui were still two adults with one child. According to the regulations of the program team, Mo Sui could not deliberately go on a diet. The twenty yuan they had might not be enough for the three of them to spend.
"I have two yuan." An An took out two yuan from her schoolbag and said weakly, "I earned it from delivering food."
Mo Sui: ???
When did her daughter deliver food?
"An An, the program team said that we can't bring our own money." Gu Yicheng laughed and said to his daughter.
The little girl was stunned, her mouth opened into a small "o" shape.
Didn't you say you can go to work?
"I'll go buy some vegetables." Gu Yicheng said to Mo Sui, "You stay at home and take care of the kids."
"Is twenty yuan enough to buy vegetables?" Mo Sui asked.
Buying vegetables is actually a technical job.
Generally speaking, people like Gu Yicheng who are obviously not homebodies will become lambs to be slaughtered as soon as they enter the vegetable market.
It's not that the vegetable stall owners will cheat on the weight, but mainly because they are too enthusiastic, stuffing vegetables into the bags desperately, and shouting for more, more...
"I don't know either." Gu Yicheng coughed, "How much is a pound of rice?"
Mo Sui shook his head.
"Three yuan and nine cents a pound." An An whispered.
The couple was dumbfounded and said in unison: "How did you know?"
An An was a little proud and a little shy, blushing shyly: "Sister Li told me."
"How much is a pound of eggs?" Mo Sui asked again.
"There are three yuan, five yuan, and six and a half yuan." An An said seriously.
"For An An to eat, you still have to buy good ones." Gu Yicheng said.
Mo Sui went to get a pen and paper and began to write down the prices of vegetables that An An said.
The child only heard Sister Li talk about it when he was with her, and didn't remember the prices completely, but just by thinking with his head tilted, he actually helped his parents a lot.
The couple sat on the furry carpet beside the coffee table, one holding a pen and the other working on a calculator, trying to balance the nutrients and finally making a menu.
They would buy seven yuan of meat, four yuan of rice, five yuan of vegetables, and a few yuan of flour to make dumplings for tomorrow morning.
However, after all the calculations, the couple knew that seven yuan of meat and five yuan of vegetables were a small amount.
It was too difficult to eat them in two meals.
"It doesn't matter, Dad can eat less, and An'an and Mom can eat more." Gu Yicheng said.
Little Dumpling showed a hesitant expression, lowered his head and tapped his phone watch, found Gu Yicheng's childhood photo from the album, and looked reluctant: "Will Dad be so hungry that he becomes such a skinny monkey?"
Gu Yicheng: ...
He silently pressed An An's little arm, blocked the black history photo of his childhood on the screen with his big hand, and stood up: "I'm going to buy vegetables."
"Let's go together." Mo Sui said, "An An is the best at buying vegetables among us."
"Okay, let An An go and bargain." Gu Yicheng nodded seriously.
The family of three was about to go out to buy vegetables, and before leaving, Gu Yicheng stopped.
He looked back at Zhang Rumeng, who looked confused: "Can you cook?"
Zhang Rumeng shook her head and sighed: "Usually my husband cooks, but he
won't be here until tomorrow." Mo Sui's eyes lit up: "Then do you want to eat with us for the two meals today?"
Zhang Rumeng immediately trotted over and handed over the twenty yuan in her hand: "Okay? It's too much trouble for you."
Mo Sui and Gu Yicheng took the twenty yuan at the same time.
Not a trouble at all!
...
The three adults took An An to buy vegetables, and when they came back, they were carrying large and small bags in their hands.
There was not much food in each bag, but the variety was rich, and coupled with Gu Yicheng's cooking skills, the kitchen soon filled with fragrance.
At noon, three dishes and a soup were served on the table. They were delicious and made everyone look envious.
Du Qianyi coaxed her son who wanted to eat meat while blaming herself for not being flexible.
Zhang Rumeng only had 20 yuan, why didn't he think of taking her along just now?
Now she was taken away by Mo Sui. There was 40 yuan for the living expenses of three adults and one child, and they only had to eat two meals. It was too easy.
"It's time to eat!" An An rubbed her hands and scooped a spoonful of tomato egg soup with a spoon.
The little girl drank with a satisfied look on her face, and her crescent-like eyes narrowed.
Mo Sui had promised Sister Wu not to diet during the show, and he had to eat a balanced diet these days, so he and Zhang Rumeng each shared a small half bowl of rice.
Gu Yicheng picked up a piece of meat for An An: "Eat more."
They had to stay in this villa for three days. Gu Yicheng had no idea whether a pound of rice would be enough for three days, so he picked and searched when cooking and was reluctant to put in any rice.
Now, he sighed silently in his heart. He had never been hungry since he was a child.
He had to think of a way to eat enough tomorrow.
Rong Bo sat on the sofa and would lean forward from time to time to watch others eat. The
more he watched, the more delicious it seemed. He swallowed and listened to his stomach.
