This episode focuses on how celebrities raise children and how the glamorous celebrities get along with their children. One episode has already been aired and this is the second episode. The broadcast effect was good and made several actors who were on the decline famous. Therefore, singers and actors with some fame have actively signed up this time.
The village chief picked the cleanest and most well-behaved child in the village, but compared with the children in the city, he still looked cramped, with tattered clothes, dark hands and face, and looked dirty.
There were no cameras at the time, and several celebrities couldn't help but step back in disgust. Li Xiaomi covered her nose and asked, "Is there an infectious disease?"
After receiving a cold look from Director An, her assistant hurriedly pulled the little ancestor to the back and apologized awkwardly.
There were seven or eight children, and Director An selected five. Xihe saw from afar that there was a child with a limp and the worst clothes among the children. She lowered her head and said nothing. No one was willing to choose her, and finally she formed a team with Zhao Mo.
"Let's go and rest first." Huo Yuan held her in his arms. Xihe nodded and looked back, not knowing why she felt a little concerned about the child.
The mountain village is far away from human habitation, and the road was only built in recent years, so the conditions are naturally not very good. However, Huo Yuan's assistant is very thoughtful and soon decorated the rented house into a distinctive homestay cottage, and the floor is covered with soft carpets, which is comfortable and beautiful.
After a simple lunch, Huo Yuan took his assistant to conduct an investigation nearby. Xihe changed into a long skirt and sat by the window to enjoy the scenery. She happened to see Director An and others busying around in the small square.
Of course, celebrities don’t live in the village. They have cleaner and more comfortable RVs, but their assistants don’t have this treatment and can only live with the villagers.
Suddenly she heard the door creak open. She turned around and saw a thin and lonely child standing at the door.
There was a hint of surprise in her dark eyes, her little hands were holding the door, her yellow short-sleeves were wrinkled and stained with indelible stains, and one of her legs hung limply. Xihe recognized her.
"Hello... Are you here for something?" He walked over, squatted down, and looked at the child with a smile.
The child stepped back warily, staring at her silently, his eyes growing darker.
Xihe thought for a while and said, "Do you want to come in? Auntie has some sweet candies and delicious cookies here." The more she looked at the child, the more she liked him and she couldn't help but want to touch the child's head.
But the child quickly dodged him, limped into the house, walked to the stairs, pushed open the door leading downstairs, and went out. After a while, he came out with a basket on his back.
Seeing her walking out the door, Xihe followed: "So this is your home, where are you going? Can I follow you?"
The mountain breeze is warm today, and the village square is particularly lively because of the arrival of outsiders. However, the child is walking all the way to the back mountain, with a big basket on his back. Xihe asked if he needed help, but the child ignored her and walked very fast with his staggering back.
When they met villagers on the road, they just greeted "Chou Ya" from a distance, and looked at Xihe who seemed afraid to come over.
Xihe followed the child up the mountain and saw her enter a cornfield, put down her basket, and swiftly pull weeds. The itchy stalks and leaves soon dyed the child's face red. "Is this your field? You pulled out all the weeds next to it by yourself, didn't you? You're amazing."
"Why do they call you ugly? You are so pretty."
"How old are you? Are you in school?"
She was just talking to herself and the child ignored her.
But they didn't work for too long. After weeding the last ridge, the child picked out the tender and crisp grass leaves, put them in a basket, and went down the mountain.
Xihe followed behind and saw her stumble and fall forward. He quickly grabbed her and pulled her back. Suddenly he was afraid: "Walk slower, what if she falls!"
One side of the mountain path slopes down suddenly and is covered with grass. If you fall down, you will at least lose an arm or a leg.
The child seemed a little scared, his face turned pale, but he pursed his lips and walked forward without saying a word.
Xihe sighed, picked up the child and put him on his back, then carried the basket down the mountain. The child was stunned for a moment and started struggling. Xihe said, "Don't move. If he falls, we'll both be dead."
The child froze, not daring to move, and said in a hoarse voice, "I can walk by myself."
Xihe was surprised: "You can talk? Hold me, I'll let you down when we get to the bottom of the mountain." He chatted with her, "We're staying at your house, where do you and your family live?"
No response was received.
"I saw you filming. Don't be afraid. Act well. Director An has a good temper."
“…”
After going down the mountain, they ran into stars like Li Xiaomi who were strolling in the village. Both sides were a little surprised.
The child struggled to get down. Xihe nodded to a few people, put the child down and followed him back home. Li Xiaomi and others looked at each other in confusion.
When they got home, the child carried grass to feed the chickens. Xihe was sweating a little and went to wash up, but when she came out, no one was there. She simply lay on the bed to rest. Huo Yuan came back at around four o'clock. Seeing that her eyes were dazed, he touched her head and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Pulling his hand down, Xihe shook her head and rested her head on his shoulder, hesitating: "I met a child today..."
Huo Yuan:???
Xihe frowned: "I'm not sure if it's our daughter."
With their level of cultivation, they would not fail to recognize their own children if they met them. But it is rare that they have been here for so long but have gained nothing. This can only mean that the restrictions of the way of heaven have become stricter.
But when she went out, she actually met a child who made her feel soft-hearted.
Huo Yuan: "Which child?"
Xihe glanced at him and said, "It's the family we're staying with. I don't know if her parents treat her well. Today the child went up the mountain to weed by herself. It seemed like she did it all by herself." She felt so distressed just thinking that this was her own child.
Huo Yuan lowered his head and pecked his red lips: "I'll ask someone to inquire about the situation."
"Um."
The child's situation was no secret, and it wasn't long before we found out that this child was the only one left in the family. His parents had said they were going out to work seven years ago and had never returned. Coincidentally, the child's grandmother had also passed away a few years ago, and now he lived alone at home, relying on the villagers for food.
The child is also sensible. She often goes to the fields to help the people who feed her weed and do things within her ability.
Xihe couldn't help but say, "Whether it's true or not, let's adopt her, right?"
Huo Yuan: "There's no rush for this. She still has to participate in Director An's filming. Let's talk about it after it's over."
"good."
However, at night, when the two were about to go to bed, they heard a rustling sound coming from downstairs. They immediately woke up the bodyguard and asked him to go downstairs to check. When they opened the door, they were met with a pair of frightened eyes.
The child curled up on the wooden box, clutching a dirty quilt in his arms, alert and frightened.
Xihe: “…”
Huo Yuan: “…”
Half an hour later, the bodyguard prepared a new room. The child changed into loose pajamas and lay on the soft and fragrant bed, trying hard to keep a straight face.
Xihe looked at the child gently: "Go to sleep." She pinched the child's face, but didn't feel much flesh, and her heart was filled with more pity.
The lights in the room were turned off. The child gently touched the incredibly soft quilt with his eyes wide open. It was unknown how long it took before he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
