Chapter 9: Not Steaming the Pumpkin to Save Face
"Today is the first meeting of the four families of "This is My Mom". First of all, welcome everyone. It's getting late today, and we only have two tasks: eat and sleep."
Four families gathered in the living room, officially kicking off the show.
"But..." Cheng Cheng's mother Xu Naru imitated the director's tone and made a sharp turn.
"Yes, but," Director Zhang laughed, "You have to cook for yourself. The program team has prepared the ingredients for everyone. The mothers have to prepare a dish or staple food with their babies. It can also be regarded as a small gathering for everyone to meet for the first time."
"But——" Xu Naru made another sharp turn.
"Well, there is a second but." Director Zhang laughed awkwardly, feeling like he was singing a double act. "The audience will vote and score based on your performance, and the one with the highest or lowest score will have priority in choosing the room tonight."
“Can you cook?”
Ran Ran, who was playing with the other kids, couldn't help but move closer to Xiang Nuan when she heard this.
"Won't."
"What should we do then?"
"It's up to you."
Jiang Ranran's eyes, mouth and nostrils seemed to be blown by a blower, stretching them wider and wider.
"We have prepared four rooms of different styles for you, namely 'A Date with the Stars', 'Kiss the Baby', 'Sweet Dreamland' and 'Barla World'. Which family will be destined to be with which room depends on everyone's performance in the future."
"I want to have a date with the stars, I like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!" Cheng Cheng clapped and shouted happily.
"I want a bala world, it sounds cool!" Han Feifei also expressed her opinion.
"Don't just listen to the name. A nice name doesn't mean the room will be comfortable to live in." Nuanbao was still as serious as ever.
"Ranran, what about you? Which room do you want to live in?" Seeing that Ranran didn't say anything, the director asked in a guiding manner.
"I like sweet dreams. It's up to you whether I can live in it." Xiang Nuan pouted at him, almost petrifying Jiang Ranran with anger.
"Ranran is discussing countermeasures with her mother. Have you made up your mind?" The director wanted to guide the topic.
"What's the use of thinking about it? You have to be able to live in it."
Even experienced workers don’t have such resentment. Jiang Ranran almost lay down on the spot.
[This kid has been smart since he was young. Isn't he going to give up before he even starts? ]
[Mrs. Jiang looks like a woman who has never touched a dish before. Can she cook? I can imagine what will happen next without even starting. It's horrible.]
[Don’t forget that Han Feifei is still injured, she can’t overwork herself! Hahaha]
"Ingredients are limited, first come first served..."
Before the director finished speaking, several cute kids ran out.
"But—and but—"
Director Zhang was shouting and laughing at the back, but the children didn't listen and had disappeared long ago.
"Okay, then I'll tell all the mothers that any ingredients you choose must be used, otherwise you will lose points!"
There was another gust of wind, and several mothers rushed out as if they were facing a great enemy.
However, they underestimated the babies' ability to "buy up". By the time they arrived at the battlefield, each of them had a bunch of food in their arms that they themselves couldn't even recognize.
Jiang Ranran was small but strong. He ignored everything else and went straight to the biggest pumpkin and hugged it tightly.
What's going on? Capture the leader first? How can we use up such a big pumpkin in a short time?
"Are you sure you don't want to see something else?"
"No, I don't know anyone else."
What kind of excuse is that? Xiang Nuan almost choked herself. Okay, pumpkin is pumpkin. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin bars, pumpkin soup, baked pumpkin, maple syrup pumpkin... Fortunately, there are not many, not many, I only know twenty ways to cook it.
But she had already made up her mind that she was not here to show off her cooking skills. She could put out a fire, but she couldn't be a head chef.
[Look at other cute babies who are very methodical in choosing vegetables and meat, but look at our Ran Bao... He is so stupid, so stupid. This episode proves that Mrs. Jiang can't cook.]
[On-site test, let the cute kids call out the names of the vegetables they grabbed one by one. Those who can't call out the ones can't use them. ]
[No, there's nothing to do with testing cute kids. We should let these mothers identify them on the spot and see if they can recognize them all. ]
Jiang Ranran looked like a "boy riding a melon", looking around the room in a cute and adorable way. The other kids didn't have everything, but they had some meat, eggs, and vegetables, especially Han Feifei, who took most of the meat for himself, relying on his big body. It looked like he was going to have an "all-meat feast".
"Ran Ran, you chose such a big pumpkin, what are you going to do later?"
The director couldn't bear to watch it anymore and tried to guide the students.
"Steamed pumpkin." Ranran blurted out.
Not only did the director open his eyes wide, but the other children also laughed unrestrainedly when they heard it.
No problem! Xiang Nuan actually gave Ran Bao a thumbs up, and the director was almost split apart on the spot.
[Oh my god, Xiang Nuan can only steam pumpkin, right?! How did our Ran Bao survive?!]
[What did Jiang Yunhui see in her? Being a vase is not fashionable enough, and being a aunt is not practical enough. I am better than her. ]
As soon as the fans' comments started to become harsh, Shen Sumei couldn't wait to create her own character.
"I like cooking the most. I feel that cooking, chatting and drinking coffee with my family is the happiest time. My specialty is vegetable salad, which is healthy and delicious. Feifei loves it the most."
Before he finished speaking, the camera froze on Han Feifei's arms full of various kinds of meat.
[You are the one who likes to eat vegetable salad, your whole family likes to eat vegetable salad, I, Han Feifei, only eat meat! ]
[It's really shameless. Feifei, does your aunt have no dignity? ]
The fans seemed to be waiting for Shen Sumei to make a fool of herself, and they all started to post comments at the same time.
"I don't want any salad, I want meat!"
After working for most of the day, Han Feifei finally discovered the cruel truth.
Seeing this, Cheng Cheng suddenly stood up, ran towards Han Feifei, picked out chicken wings from the pile of meat on the table, and danced with joy.
"Just right, I want chicken wings."
"Let's see who dares to move. Let him go back!" Han Feifei stopped Cheng Cheng in one step.
"What are you doing? Bullying a little girl!"
Jiang Ranran never misses such big scenes and arrives at the battlefield in a second.
Well, the show is about to begin. Xiang Nuan couldn't help but roll her eyes, adjusted her posture, and prepared to watch the show.
"We are making salad today. Auntie has already picked it out. We don't need chicken wings!" Shen Sumei was still immersed in the gentle and virtuous look and couldn't extricate herself.
What kind of news is this? Meat, I, Han Feifei, want to eat meat! He grabbed the bag in Cheng Cheng's hand and tried to snatch the chicken wings away, but Cheng Cheng stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.
"Han Feifei, you're going crazy again! Go apologize to Cheng Cheng!"
Jiang Ranran was never afraid of fighting. He grabbed Han Feifei by the collar, but he was too small, so his momentum was ineffective.
"Why...why are you guys fighting again? Children should talk properly, okay?" Shen Sumei raised her voice, but suddenly she put on a smile and softened it.
Han Feifei ignored her. He had just been pushed down in the kindergarten, and now he wanted to settle all the old and new grudges. He grabbed Jiang Ranran's wrist and pretended to throw him out.
Xiang Nuan had anticipated this and caught Ran Ran steadily.
"You can't use brute force against a kid who's older than you. A real man shouldn't fight back, but if he does, he should find the opponent's weakness and defeat him with one move."
Jiang Ranran was originally furious, but suddenly calmed down.
"Are you teaching me how to fight?"
"Do you want to fight?"
"If my dad finds out, we're both done for."
"He's not here again."
Jiang Ranran suddenly grinned and shouted, "I know where Han Feifei's weakness is!" and then shot out like an arrow.
“Hahahaha, don’t…let me go, I warn you not to tickle me…”
Xiang Nuan did not expect that Jiang Ranran would ride on Han Feifei and pinch his armpits and tickle him fiercely.
This style of painting, I’m going!
