Chapter 77 Chapter 77 Strong Baby!
The program team asked all the guests to hand in their cell phones, except for little Zhuzhu.
The phone watch is not a toy. In addition to being able to make and receive calls, video chats and send messages, it also comes with a payment software. It is fully functional and is almost the same as an adult's mobile phone. At that time, Ji Ning had just bought a mobile phone for Xiao Tuanzi, and she played with it more enthusiastically than the child. She registered and opened a bunch of accounts for the baby. Later, the novelty wore off, and she only charged the baby's watch every day and never touched it again.
"When did your grandpa and grandma transfer it to you?" Ji Ning asked.
When Xiaotuanzi recalled, many scenes popped up in his mind.
A few days ago, she often stayed alone with her grandparents. Grandparents accidentally discovered that the baby's watch could be used to "store money", so they would ask her to open the QR code and turn it a little. Zhuzhu had no idea how much money it was, but she liked to hear the sound of the payment software. When the phone sounded, the baby would "giggle". Seeing her laughing so happily, grandparents would turn it again and listen to the cute laughter of the baby granddaughter, and the cycle continued.
Zhuzhu counted on her fingers: "When I was riding a scooter, when I was reading newspapers, when I was making candied haws and glutinous rice balls, when I was reading storybooks..."
【Let’s fight with you rich people! 】
[What would happen if there was one more rich person like me in the world? QAQ]
【Hahahaha I get it. The sound of money being credited is "bang bang", the sound of a bunch of gold coins being thrown away, very crisp.】
[Who doesn’t like to hear this voice? (Cat admiring face.jpg)]
When registering, Zhuzhu's account was directly linked to Jining's payment software account. When she received a transfer, she would receive a reminder on her phone. However, the software pushed some useless messages all day long, and Jining had turned off the push notifications long ago. Unexpectedly, in a hidden corner, Zhuzhu's small treasury was growing bigger and bigger, and she became a wealthy baby.
The pampering of grandpa and grandma gradually turned into spoiling.
How could a child carry so much money with him? Jiang Cheng and Ji Ning had a serious discussion on the establishment of the baby's concept of money and consumption.
"It won't be ready when we get back." Jiang Cheng suggested.
The baby's parents considered this issue seriously.
After getting the phone, Ji Ning first turned on the "child lock" of the software, that is, the payment limit, to reduce the daily payment limit. At the same time, the large transfers from grandpa and grandma will not be confiscated or returned. That is Zhuzhu's own money. Applying for a bank card for her to deposit money in it can help the baby develop financial management concepts from now on.
"But if that happens, there will be no money in her phone watch," said Ji Ning.
Jiang Cheng also has a solution to this problem.
"Give the baby some of them, one or two at a time." Jiang Cheng said, "Let her hear it."
【Little Bamboo Cub:? 】
[One or two pieces to let her hear it, Mr. Jiang, listen to what you are saying! ]
[But in fact, children have no concept of virtual currency, and they have no awareness of fraud... Babies really shouldn't carry so much money with them. ]
When mom and dad discussed this matter, they did not avoid little Zhuzhu.
The baby himself also listened with great interest.
I can hear the “bang bang” sound again!
Raising a child is like leveling up and fighting monsters. You have to encounter new levels from time to time. Ji Ning and Jiang Cheng decided to wait until the evening to give the baby the first lesson in financial management.
All the guests were extremely grateful to grandpa and grandma for giving Zhuzhu gold coins. No matter what, everyone was finally able to have a good meal!
The driver had already stopped the car and used body language to describe to them how delicious this Michelin restaurant was.
At this moment, the guests also began to respond to him with body language. Tong Zhiqi made a move of tearing chicken, Tong Zhile pretended to hold a knife and fork, and Zhuzhu made a "woohoo".
The driver finally understood and turned off the car.
When getting off the bus, Qiao Yinyin couldn't help but look back at him again: "Is he a shill?"
This time, the baby treated everyone to the meal, and the guests stepped back subconsciously to make way for the young boss.
Everyone followed Zhuzhu. She took a few steps and when she looked back she saw the flamboyant guests and felt a little embarrassed.
"Mom and Dad, Aunt Muyun, Sister Lele..."
"Uncle Zhang, Sister Yinyin."
Zhuzhu is a polite baby and called every guest to come over.
Finally, she said to Tong Zhiqi: "Uncle Qiqi, you come too!"
Tong Zhiqi: ...
You changed your mind at the beach this afternoon, right?
[Hahahaha limited edition Brother Qiqi (doge)]
[Who let Uncle Qi bully our little Zhubao, who is young and uneducated? The encyclopedia of "Little Bird" he made up made the baby stunned. ]
Little Zhuzhu has an encyclopedia software in her watch. She just inputted a message by voice to see what the "little bird" looks like. The reply from the encyclopedia hit the baby hard.
The "little bird" that Tong Zhiqi mentioned is not a real bird, nor is it a relative of the ostrich. There is no such bird at all.
Jiang Cheng and Ji Ning took advantage of the opportunity.
“These things are taught in kindergarten.”
“Now do you understand the importance of going to school?”
The little man didn't answer, but looked at the sky with a melancholy expression.
【Xiao Zhubao: No matter how important it is, don’t we have to do it? 】
[Mom and Dad are so nagging. Please stop bringing up negative things when we are having such a good time! ]
[The biggest hardship our baby has endured since being brought back home is probably going to kindergarten away from home... No matter how much we pave the way for him, it's useless. Zhuzhu really doesn't want to face it! ]
…
That night, the guests enjoyed the most sumptuous dinner since arriving in Tobira.
The Glass House was booked in advance, so they dined outdoors, overlooking the green riverside.
The lake was dotted with stars and the atmosphere was peaceful. The guests raved about every dish and even praised Xiao Zhubao after they had enjoyed the meal. They gave her a thumbs up.
Even with the arrival of new guests, the atmosphere remained harmonious.
Qiao Yinyin picked up a jug of freshly squeezed orange juice and was about to pour it for herself when she saw little Zhuzhu coming over with the cup in hand.
"Can you drink..."
"Sure! I'm a big kid now!"
The guests all laughed out loud.
Under the bright moonlight, every guest had a gentle smile.
Laughter echoed.
Time will not stay at this moment forever, but the beautiful moment that stops in our heart may become an eternal memory.
Zhuzhu didn’t know what joke the adults had heard; she was more concerned about the small glass of orange juice she had ordered.
The baby cherished the little bit of orange juice very much, drinking it in small sips and squinting his eyes with satisfaction.
So sweet.
After dinner, Director Tao asked the staff to deliver the task cards.
"Do you remember the first task of our first show?"
Ding Muyun still clearly remembers that it was the first task when the program officially started live broadcast.
Let's get the relationship back to the starting point, sit together and talk to each other.
At that time, she and Xiang Xinghui had almost nothing to say, and their conversations were all forced, but netizens loved watching them. At that time, she refused to communicate with Xiang Xinghui, but perhaps the atmosphere of the show was well controlled. Later, during the trip, she let go of her tension and thought of their old love of the past 20 years. Slowly, she let down her guard.
"Thinking about it now, it's quite embarrassing." Ding Muyun said with a smile.
"No!" Ji Ning said without a second thought, "It's not shameful to be honest with yourself."
[Sister, it’s the scumbag who’s embarrassed, not you! ]
[Am I the only one who thinks it’s kind of cute when the actress says she’s embarrassed? She’s becoming more and more willing to open up.]
[Internal entertainment live person +1! ]
Tong Zhile also recalled what happened in the first episode of the show.
At that time, they were both troublemakers, and the program crew was always on high alert, fearing that they would be muted by accident. In the blink of an eye, their relationship has progressed. Although they cannot be called a loving brother and sister, they can talk to each other properly.
"Aren't you still a loving brother and sister?" Tong Zhiqi said dissatisfiedly.
"..." Tong Zhile hesitated for a moment, "It's just barely possible."
"Then call me 'brother' and let me hear it." Tong Zhiqi said.
Child's Joy: ...
This round is another encore mission, where the guests are divided into groups to enjoy their desserts outdoors.
The partners had some time to be alone together. Although Ding Muyun was left alone, her attention was completely attracted by the dessert. She picked up the spoon, slowly put it down, and finally made up her mind and picked it up again. The silky cake entered her mouth, and the cream lingered between her lips and teeth, as if shouting that it was extremely high in calories. Ding Muyun didn't care and tasted it slowly.
Tong Zhiqi and Tong Zhile are no longer at odds with each other as they were back then.
Dingliu had a lot to say to his sister, but in front of the camera, he really didn't want to expose his sister's scars, so he could only chat casually. But their topic was no longer limited to the past. The brother and sister created new memories during the journey. Fortunately, after so many years, they got to know each other again.
It was also at this time that Director Tao raised Tong Zhiqi's cell phone to signal.
It was an incoming call, and the program team only allowed guests to answer important calls. Tong Zhile was worried that it was about work, so he urged his brother to answer it quickly. Tong Zhiqi walked aside with the phone and took off the headset.
By the lake, his brother stood tall and slender with his eyes lowered. The moonlight could not illuminate his expression, but Tong Zhile felt that he was not in a good mood.
Even when the siblings had no contact, Tong Zhile always hoped that her brother would succeed in his career, let alone now. Time passed by, and the call lasted too long. She walked forward worriedly, stepping lightly.
The night wind in Tobira is not hot and humid, but rather brings a refreshing coolness.
Tong Zhile stood not far away, looking around anxiously, and heard his brother's mocking tone.
"You finally took my sister away, and this is how you take care of her?"
"It's not easy for you, but it's easy for Lele?"
Tong Zhile was stunned for a moment until his brother hung up the phone. When he turned around, his expression was normal.
“童之樂，偷聽啊！”童之奇說。
頂流指了一下跟拍的鏡頭，用眼神示意晚點再說，而後胳膊搭在童之樂的肩膀上。
“以後跟着親哥混。”他的語氣變得溫和，“沒人敢欺負你。”
童之樂抿了抿唇，眸中像是浮了一層霧，拍開他的胳膊：“重死了！”
“那我輕點兒呗。”
【接了什麽電話，不能聽嗎？】
【雖然不知道發生了什麽事，但哥哥為妹妹撐腰，終于像個人啦！】
過氣影帝從第三期節目開始到現在，始終是懵的。
大家都說他運氣好，氪金粉絲将他送上節目，從而得到事業重新起步的機會。章彥希也覺得自己怪走運的，感覺就像是，他根本就沒買過彩票，但一不小心走在路上撿到一張，兌出了頭等獎。
此時，他面對着喬茵茵，真誠地感謝。
“但是……”他問，“你真的是我的粉絲嗎？”
喬茵茵第一次知道章彥希時，正要升高三。
即将迎來兵荒馬亂的高三時期，一分鐘要掰成兩半用，但偶像在發光，這束耀眼的光芒給了她力量。
後來，喬茵茵被父母收了手機，她卯起一股勁兒學□□想着，等到高考結束，一定要見影帝本人一面。
然而，高考結束，影帝也過氣了。
作為粉絲，她不算狂熱，但始終是有執念的。
當初星光無限的章彥希，怎麽就變成這副落魄的樣子呢？
直到這一期節目，喬茵茵終于親眼見到他。
“你都駝背了。”喬茵茵說，“把背挺直，要不然別人肯定說你的身高是虛報的。”
【？】
【我以為她要開始煽情了……】
【不愧是事業粉，一句廢話不說，主打的就是一個嚴厲。】
紀凝和江乘面對面坐着。
不管怎麽說，他倆也是節目裏的搭子。
任務卡要求，搭子之間要說話，也要有眼神上的交流。
哪有強行要求別人聊天的任務，紀凝随心所欲慣了，當“談話”成了規則，反倒束縛，此時她就像是課堂上的學生，端端正正坐好，半晌憋不出一個字來。
她想，只要她不說話，人機是不會出聲的。
既然如此，完成對視，也算是遵守任務規則。
因此，紀凝擡起眼。
片刻之後，她又轉開視線，望向其他嘉賓們。
“樂樂桌上那個飲品是什麽？”
“喬茵茵她——”
“紀凝。”江乘低聲道。
紀凝：……
喊啥喊。
她轉頭，聽見他溫潤好聽的聲音。
“你誠實了嗎？”
江乘注視着她。
就在任務開始前，紀凝對丁暮芸說，誠實面對自己的心，一點都不丢人。
但此時此刻，她連對視的目光都要避過，吃了每一組的瓜，唯獨忽略他們素人組。
“暮芸姐居然要了第二塊蛋糕。”紀凝驚呼。
“……”江乘無奈道，“你要嗎？”
【霸總扶額：真拿你沒辦法（bushi）】
【啊啊啊啊啊這認命的眼神啊。】
【人家跟你談情說愛，你在這裏冬瓜白菜（指指點點.jpg）】
“我也要。”竹竹小朋友走了過來。
小團子剛才一直在巡邏。
寶寶拿着一個小勺子，滿場跑。
每一組嘉賓桌上都有美味的甜點，寶寶還小，不能吃太多，無法擁有一整個蛋糕，只能到處蹭。
嘉賓們都很講究，品嘗蛋糕時還特地分出小小的一角，那是專門給竹竹留的。
等到小團子吃得心滿意足，回到爸爸媽媽身邊，又聽說了天大的好消息。
又要點第二塊蛋糕了！
竹竹踏實在他們身邊坐下，舉着小勺子安心等待。
紀凝用紙巾擦了擦竹竹沾着奶油的嘴角。
準确來說，第一期節目剛開始時，寶寶是她唯一的搭子。
其他搭子之間一言不合就要開掐，而她們這兩個素人搭子存在的問題，則要隐晦一些。那時候，紀凝和竹竹一點都不熟，她尚未完全适應新手媽媽的身份，也知道不能端着媽媽的架子，有些煩惱，想不明白應該怎樣和寶寶相處。從責任到愛的演變，并沒有經歷很長的過程，但紀凝還是有些愧疚，在她忘記了竹竹的那些時光裏，寶寶從未停止過對母愛的渴望。
紀凝将小團子抱到懷裏。
崽崽就像一只小手辦，會說話的小手辦。當紀凝問她，會給媽媽打多少分時，寶寶連想都沒有想，豎起一根手指頭。
“一百分！”
江乘：“爸爸呢？”
“一百分！”
【都拿雙百了，爸爸媽媽獎勵一塊小蛋糕也不為過吧！】
【小竹寶：敲碗等.jpg】
……
第二天節目的直播，到了尾聲。
從進餐廳吃飯開始，嘉賓們就已經下定決心，接下來要跟着全組最富裕的竹竹寶寶混了。
買單時，小團子連眼睛都不眨，打開付款碼，遞到服務員面前。
“滴”一下的掃碼聲，竹竹付了錢。
這是一筆“大額支出”，大家都吃得心滿意足，寶寶一點兒都不心疼。
但光是付這麽一筆，遠遠不夠，離開餐廳，小土豪帶着嘉賓們到處轉悠，每當他們在商店前停留，竹竹就擡起自己的手腕，遞上電話手表。
“确實不能給孩子太多錢。”丁暮芸失笑，“大手大腳要不得。”
小團子告訴他們，一會兒回到森林民宿，寶寶要上理財課。
媽媽還要給她準備紙筆做筆記。
“你還會做筆記。”章彥希失笑。
竹竹：“畫畫哇。”
江乘和紀凝說好了，要給寶寶買游泳圈。
小團子經過商店，自己挑選，不過店裏售賣的泳圈沒這麽可愛，造型都很簡單，竹竹挑了一只小鴨子泳圈，對着充氣口吹氣。
寶寶的肺活量不夠，吹了半天泳圈還是扁扁的，就交給媽媽。
紀凝做了個深呼吸，用力一吹：“呼！”
泳圈紋絲不動。
竹竹将泳圈交給爸爸：“爸爸來。”
紀凝立馬制止：“等一下。”
游泳圈已經到了江乘手中。
他低頭檢查時，聽見寶寶好奇地發問。
“漏氣了嗎？”竹竹話音落下，看了看媽媽，“媽媽的臉都吹紅啦！”
【哈哈哈哈哈凝凝一秒紅溫。】
【這和間接接吻有什麽區別！】
【這和當着我們這麽多人的面直接親親有什麽區別！】
江乘：“店裏有充氣筒的。”
“……”紀凝輕咳，“是嗎？那你去借一個。”
頂流的嘴角抽了一下。
上回江總就說了，瞧不上他這個老師，童之奇下定決心不多管閑事，可現在實在憋不住。
在江乘回店裏拿充氣筒時，童之奇加快腳步跟上。
“傻不傻！有機會都不知道利用，照這樣下去，你們倆只能耗着了！”
童之奇剛說完，瞄一眼江總。
想象中他大徹大悟捶胸頓足的場面并沒有發生，人家還在搗鼓那個游泳圈。
“什麽機會？” 江乘擡眼。
“耗吧耗吧！”童之奇沒好氣道，“耗到你閨女十八歲。”
【哈哈哈哈哈救命，頂流演我。】
【我已經不急了，随緣吧哈哈哈哈哈。】
【不求磕出結果，只求磕得長久。】
【就耗到十八歲吧，十五年後，江總和凝凝一起送竹竹去上大學，兩個人終于認清自己的心意（緩緩躺平.jpg）】
【太好了，是破鏡重圓文，江總有救了（微笑）】
【破鏡重圓（中年版）】
小團子站在原地，期待着等她的泳圈回歸。
她踮起腳尖好久，轉頭向紀凝申請理財課延後。
“我想游泳哇。”
寶寶眨着眼睛，嘴角往下彎，滿眼的“拜托拜托”。
“你就知道我吃這套。”紀凝捏了捏她的小臉蛋。
童之樂嘆氣。
小小年紀就上理財課，好想擁有這樣的煩惱。
……
雖然竹竹小朋友無比大方，但嘉賓們還是沒讓寶寶吃虧。
畢竟鏡頭還拍着呢，上哪兒都讓小不點掏錢，怪不好意思的。
回到森林民宿的時候，直播已經結束，大家各自回了房間，但并不打算休息。
丁暮芸卸了妝，換一身舒服的衣服，從衛生間出來的時候，看見紀凝正在行李箱裏給竹竹找泳衣。
行李箱夾層裏，還擺着劇本。
“你把劇本都帶來了？”丁暮芸問。
“年後就要開機了，我想多熟悉一下角色。”紀凝說，“車上和飛機上有很多空閑時間，沒事就打開翻一翻。”
“應該的。”丁暮芸笑道，“盧導的臺詞都是反複推敲過的，不允許改動，就是說錯了一個字，都得重新來過。有時候演員狀态不對，劇組上下所有工作人員都得加工作量，大家都停下來等着你找回狀态，要說壓力不大是不可能的。”
踏入這一行，成了名，自然是光鮮的，但沒有人能随随便便成功，丁暮芸以過來人的經驗提醒紀凝，一定要沉下心，将每一個角色都演繹好，才能不負粉絲的期待。
丁暮芸：“也不能辜負盧導的欣賞。”
這一番談話，又在竹竹小朋友的理解盲區。
Little Tuanzi waited for her mother to find a swimsuit, while she lined up her toy friends. The baby was very particular about what she did. She was going out for a swim, so she told her friends to remind them not to wait at the door.
"You guys go to sleep first." Zhuzhu said, pulling out three tissues, "Cover yourself with the quilt first."
Qiao Yinyin was lying on the bed, having finally reunited with her mobile phone after a long absence. She was reading her Moments all day long as if she was reviewing memorials to the emperor. She raised her eyelids and glanced at Zhuzhu.
It’s okay to cover dolls and bunny pendants with quilts, but why do Lego cars also need to be covered with quilts?
After looking at Zhuzhu, she looked at Ji Ning again.
The script was all packed with pulp...
"Zhuzhu, I found a swimsuit!"
Little Dumpling had just covered the toys with a blanket and ran happily towards his mother.
"Isn't it a little orange swimsuit?"
"This time it's a little peach swimsuit!"
Ji Ning and Zhu Zhu went into the bathroom, and when they came out, the baby had transformed.
A few days ago, Zhuzhu watched a TV program with her grandparents where an old Chinese medicine practitioner was interviewed.
The baby was obsessed with finding her own pulse. She was wearing thick clothes at the time and couldn't find it for a long time through her sweater. Now that she has changed into her little swimsuit, she recalls this incident and puts her little fleshy hand on her arm in deep thought.
"Mom, I don't have a pulse?"
Ji Ning laughed out loud: "How come?"
"I'm definitely too fat." Zhuzhu drooped her head sadly, "I need to lose weight."
The little dumpling’s short arms are white and tender, like lotus root nodes.
Ding Muyun suspected that she often expressed her body anxieties before meals, and that the baby got to know her.
"That won't work. If you become a skinny baby, you won't have the energy to swim." Ji Ning said with a smile, "Let's work harder and build up some muscles to become a strong baby."
"Look." Ji Ning held Zhuzhu's little hand and placed it on her wrist. "It's the pulse beating. Do you feel it?"
Little Zhuzhu calmed down and felt it.
It really is wow!
"Let's go swimming!" Little Dumpling made a "rush" gesture.
The chubby little Zhuzhu ran towards the swimming pool.
She wants to become a strong baby as soon as possible and make her pulse beat more powerfully!
…
Jiang Cheng and Tong Zhiqi came out of the house and listened to Teacher Tong's class.
"Zhuzhu is still young and certainly can't swim in the pool by herself. Now is your chance to show off."
"Teach her to swim?"
"Tsk, are you a swimming coach? You teach people how to swim... and what you show is the muscle lines!"
Tong Zhiqi described the scenes for Jiang Cheng.
"Come out of the water and shake off the water drops on your head. You can laugh or not laugh, but don't laugh like a fool and ruin the atmosphere."
"Don't worry, I don't think you will smile foolishly."
"Think about it, the lines of the arms, the lines of the back muscles, the waistline, and -"
Jiang Cheng:?
"Izumi handsome man." Tong Zhiqi nodded firmly, "My iron heart has softened."
While Tong Zhiqi was giving earnest advice, Jiang Cheng heard a series of footsteps and looked towards the distance.
Little Zhuzhu came out.
Although the kids can't swim, the team is really powerful. Their long-sleeved swimsuits look very professional, and they are wearing tight swimming caps. Not a single hair is hanging down, and their exposed faces are round and soft, like a pink dumpling.
The baby had a pair of cool swimming goggles on her face. When she saw her father coming, she ran towards him, her baby voice even more cheerful and louder than her footsteps.
"dad!"
Ji Ning walked slowly and watched the baby running wildly.
She wondered what it would be like when Zhuzhu jumped into the pool. It would probably be like a sweet dumpling slurping down into a pot.
However, before she could finish her thought, little Zhuzhu had already returned.
The baby ran to his mother and pushed up his goggles with his little hands.
"What's the matter?" Ji Ning asked.
Zhuzhu's goggles failed to push up and got stuck on his forehead.
She found support and pointed in Jiang Cheng's direction: "Dad said I look like--"
"Like what?" Ji Ning interrupted with a guilty conscience, "Little glutinous rice balls?"
Zhuzhu felt aggrieved.
Tong Zhiqi is still giving a lecture.
I don't know if Mr. Jiang listened to me. I hope his efforts will be wasted in the end.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Cheng said, "My daughter seems angry."
The little guy is angry.
yes!
Top stream: ...
It's so sad. I couldn't convince either of them, let alone both of them.
"Baby." Jiang Cheng asked cautiously, "Isn't it good to be like a halved egg?"
