"I've made my choice!"
"Then we'll decide who draws lots first by playing rock-paper-scissors."
The childish game of "rock, paper, scissors" quickly came to a conclusion.
Village Chief: "Which one of the universes should we choose?"
Universe: "I choose number 2. Number 2 looks beautiful and Mom will definitely like it."
Village Chief: "Okay, next up is Tata."
Tata noticed her mother's conflicted expression.
Wenxi: "Tata can choose whichever one she likes, Mom can choose either."
Tata looked up at the village chief and took the card with the shop sign: "Uncle Village Chief, I choose this one."
Village Chief: "Okay, let me see. Tata chose number 3. Why did Tata choose number 3?"
Tata showed the picture: "There are lots and lots of food, and Mommy likes to eat them."
Gu Ye, who was not far away, seemed to be thinking of Wen Xi eating and smiled.
Village Chief: "It's because Mom likes to eat it. Tata is so thoughtful."
Gray Gray's Mom: "I'm so envious, Tata actually knows your hobby."
Wen Xi said proudly, "Of course, he's my son."
Tata shyly walked up to Wenxi with the drawing and handed it to her.
Wen Xi gently pinched his little nose: "Thank you, Tata, you made a great choice."
Tata stretched out her belly and said, "Mom, you're welcome."
Jiajia's mom: "What a little angel! I wish Tata would grow up to be our son-in-law."
Gray Gray's Mom: "Haha, dream on."
Cosmic Mom: "You still have time to have another one."
Xuanxuan made her third choice and obediently walked over, choosing the one that looked the biggest, which was stone house number 1.
Xuanxuan's mom sighed, "Why did you choose this?"
Xuanxuan gestured with her hand: "Big."
Although Huihui was the fourth one, she saw Jiajia behind her and said, "Sister, you choose first."
Jiajia: "Thank you, little brother, I choose number 5."
Grey Grey is in room number 4.
Grey Grey's Mom: "That's great, Grey Grey knows how to be modest now."
The air was filled with laughter and joy.
Village Chief: "Now everyone can go to their own houses."
After walking a short distance from the dock, a small town full of ancient charm came into view.
Red bricks and green tiles, a winding river, and on both sides of the river are rows of simple red houses. Cross a small bridge to reach the villagers' homes.
The convenience store was not far from the bridge, where passersby could buy things. Xiao Tata and Wen Xi headed towards their room number 3.
Upon entering the shop, I met a middle-aged couple who seemed to like Tata very much and greeted her warmly.
There are several rooms behind the shop, one of which is a bedroom.
There is a large bed inside, surrounded by teak-colored wardrobes and bookshelves.
Universe's home is a small courtyard built along the river, a small house with the style of Jiangnan, very elegant inside, and with green landscape.
Yu Zhou bounced around excitedly: "Mommy, this house is so nice!"
Universe Mom was pleasantly surprised: "Yes, you really know how to choose."
Jiajia and Huihui live in a typical apartment building with a narrow courtyard, and the two families live very close to each other.
Just as Wenxi was making the bed, the production team delivered the task card and lunch.
Please gather at the pier at 1:30 PM after you have rested.
We had a quick lunch, and since we got up so early this morning, everyone took a nice nap.
In the afternoon, everyone gathered at the pier, and at a glance, everyone looked much more energetic.
Village Chief: "This afternoon, our task is for the parents to fish in the ponds of the small fishing village. After fishing, the parents and children will sell the fish together and see who can earn the most."
Jiajia: "Fishing?"
Huihui's mom winked at Wenxi: "Wenxi, it's your turn to shine. If I can't catch anything, help me out!"
Wen Xi: "Catching fish and fishing are not the same thing; it also depends on whether the fish take the bait."
Xuanxuan's mother glanced at them from the side.
Huihui's mom sensed something was wrong and secretly moved the microphone away, whispering in Wenxi's ear, "Why do I feel like Xuanxuan's mom is always targeting us?"
Wen Xi bit her cheek: "I think so too."
Gray Gray's Mom: "This is ridiculous, just ignore her."
Led by the villagers, the group headed to the pond, where the production crew had already prepared the necessary tools.
The group each took a spot, placed a small stool there, and each person was also given a plastic bucket.
The village chief reminded everyone: "Parents, you can begin now, but children, please be careful."
After taking the fishing rod, baiting it with an earthworm, and casting the line a few times, Wen Xi sat down on the small stool without saying a word once he found a suitable spot.
Tata stood next to his mother, looking serious and attentive like a little guard, his expression mirroring his mother's.
The others were making a lot of noise, and hadn't even prepared their bait yet.
"Huh, what's this? Earthworms are disgusting."
"Can we not use bait?"
"I hate things that twist and turn the most."
Not long after, the float moved, and Wen Xi quickly reeled in the line and stood up. A small fish was caught, and with a perfect arc, the fish was put into the bucket.
Tata immediately ran to the bucket to see the fish, and sure enough, she caught one! He shouted to his friends, "Look, my mom caught a fish!"
The children nearby all came over to look at the fish in the bucket.
The universe responded loudly: "My mother hasn't arrived yet."
Wenxi remained seated, very quiet, while the other parents hadn't caught a single fish yet.
A moment later, another fish left the water.
Tata: "A big fish, it's a big fish!"
Tata looked around and exclaimed happily, "My mom caught another one!"
Gray Gray's Mom: "Tata's Mom, you're so lucky!"
Xuanxuan's Mom: "Tata's Mom, how are you such a good fisherman?"
Wen Xi: "Just wait for the fishing rod to move and then pull it up."
Xuanxuan's mom endured the nausea, prepared the bait, and remained motionless, just like Yuzhou's mom. She walked a little further away and caught a tiny fish.
Wenxi caught her third and fourth fish, while the other mothers only caught one.
Xuanxuan watched from a distance: "My mom hasn't caught anything yet."
Xuanxuan's mother was very anxious as she watched everyone else catch fish while she hadn't caught any herself.
"Tata's mom, can I switch spots with you? It's not a good spot for fishing."
Wenxi had just finished reeling in his fish and caught one. He then switched places with Xuanxuan's mother, carrying his bucket.
Gray Gray's mom rolled her eyes when she saw this, but after changing her position, she was closer to Tata's mom.
Grey Grey's mom quickly caught a second one: "Wow, I caught a big one as soon as Tata's mom came!"
Wen Xi smiled and said, "Superstition."
Tata saw that all the fish in her mother's bucket were crowded together, so she ran to find the village chief.
"Uncle Village Chief, could you give me another bucket? The fish are too crowded and uncomfortable."
The village chief said, "You caught so many fish! Here's an extra bucket for you." He also filled the bucket with some water and carried it over to Tata.
Wenxi caught several big fish, and eventually the bucket was overflowing.
So the fish that were caught after that were put into the buckets of Gray Gray's Mom and Universe's Mom on both sides.
The universe is very happy and likes Aunt Tata even more now; we have a big fish too.
