Su Xiaowu immediately slumped into her chair.
As the little dumpling approached carrying the basin of water, it cried out, "Sister, sister, big brother's hands hurt so much too! Ah, I can't even lift my arm. I need sister to help me wash my hands and feed me!"
Little dumpling: "..."
Hey bro, could you please make your acting less overtly dramatic?
The little dumpling stuck out its little bottom and placed the basin on the ground. It then used all its strength to wring out a cloth to help its two older brothers wash their faces.
While the little dumpling went to pour water, Su Xiaowu raised an eyebrow at Su Yan with a smug look.
"Heh!" Su Yan snorted coldly, turned his face away, and ignored him.
It's time to eat.
Yu the Bearded Man raised his enamel mug. "Let's raise a glass together to welcome our first group of guests to our Pumpkin House! Welcome to Ayan, Yingjun, Taozi, and our three little guests, Xiaoruanruan, Xiaotaozi, and Jiajia! Welcome!"
Everyone immediately raised their glasses in a lively toast, "Cheers!"
Little Ruanruan held up her cup with her tiny hands and said very seriously and loudly, "Scallops!"
Everyone burst into laughter at her mispronunciation.
Yu the Bearded Man teased her, "Does our little foodie want to eat dried scallops?"
Little Ruanruan, who originally had no such thought, started missing the salty and savory taste of dried scallops after being teased by Yu Dahuzi.
She blinked her big, bright eyes and looked at Yu the Bearded Man expectantly, "Uncle Bearded Man, Ruanruan wants to eat dried scallops. Can you make dried scallops for us tonight?"
"Of course~~~" Yu Dahuzi hadn't even finished speaking.
The show's director's indifferent voice rang out from off-screen, "The ingredients for today's lunch are provided free of charge to welcome the first batch of guests."
But starting tonight, whatever ingredients you want, you'll have to earn them through your own labor.
"How do we change it?" Xiao Xiang asked from the side.
"The prices for ingredients this afternoon are: 30 jin of corn kernels for 1 jin of meat, and 10 jin of corn kernels for 1 jin of vegetables!"
Xiao Xiang was about to try and negotiate with the production team.
Little Ruanruan sidled up to him and asked in her soft, sweet voice, "Uncle Xiao Xiang, the director and the others are out in the sun and haven't eaten yet. Could Ruanruan take two 'duck' cakes to them?"
The "baba" that Xiaoruanruan was referring to was the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) that Shi Yu had just filled with meat and vegetables on the table.
Little Peach raised her little face, frowned, and looked at Little Dumpling with droopy eyelids. "They want us to peel corn kernels in exchange for food, and you still feel sorry for them? You're so kind!"
The little dumpling blinked its big eyes mischievously at Little Peach.
Xiao Xiang understood, took a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and handed it to the little dumpling, "Go!"
At the same time, he didn't forget to yell at the director outside: "Director Feng, look at our little Ruanruan, and then compare yourself. Do you really have the heart to set such harsh conditions, leaving us without any ingredients to cook something delicious for our little ones tonight?"
The directors' faces were filled with indifference, and they resolutely rejected Xiao Xiang's attempts to bargain.
Little Ruanruan, holding a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), trotted over to the director, Feng Yu, with her short legs.
She tilted her rosy little face up and held up the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) high in her little hands. "Uncle Feng, Ruanruan is treating you to roujiamo. Shiyu's roujiamo is so delicious."
As she spoke, she even slurped her saliva.
Who could resist such a soft, cute, and adorable human baby?
Feng Yu was flattered and took the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), and couldn't wait to take a big bite.
Little Ruanruan, drooling uncontrollably, asked, "Uncle Feng, is the rice cake delicious?"
"Mmm, it's delicious." Feng Yu looked at Xiao Ruanruan and said in a tender and doting tone.
Little Ruanruan's bright eyes crinkled into two shimmering crescent moons as she smiled, and she said in a sweet, childlike voice, "Uncle Feng, you ate Ruanruan's poop, so you have to give Ruanruan some dried scallops!"
Feng Yu: Suddenly the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) in my mouth doesn't taste good anymore.
He swallowed the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) in his mouth before squatting down and asking Xiaoruanruan, "How many dried scallops does Xiaoruanruan want?"
Little Softie turned around and carefully counted the number of guests, "One, two, three... ten, eleven!"
After counting, he turned to Feng Yu and said, "Uncle Feng, there are eleven of us, and each of us needs one pound of dried scallops. Uncle Feng, just give us eleven pounds of dried scallops!"
Feng Yu's eye twitched. Eleven pounds!
Little guy, you probably want to save all the dried scallops that Yu Da Hu Zi and his team have this season!
Feng Yu looked at Xiao Ruanruan, frowned and thought for a moment, "Xiao Ruanruan, how about this, Uncle will be generous and give you fifteen taels of dried scallops, how about that? Fifteen is four more than eleven!"
Little Softie blinked her big eyes and gave a cute head tilt. "Uncle, you can't lie to Softie! Fifteen is older than eleven, but a pound equals ten ounces, so Softie is all right!"
Director Feng: "..."
What a clever little girl!
Just when Feng Yu was wondering how to back down from the situation...
Little Ruanruan tiptoed and patted his shoulder with her fair and tender little hands. "However, Ruanruan knows that eleven catties of dried scallops is a little too much. Ruanruan is a good girl and won't make things difficult for Uncle. Uncle will give Ruanruan fifteen taels of dried scallops!"
Feng Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Xiao Ruanruan, who looked like a little adult, he couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little face.
"Ruanruan, you're such a good girl!"
Little Ruanruan took the dried scallops back into the shade and handed them to Uncle Yu, saying, "Uncle Big Beard, Ruanruan saved you forty-five pounds of corn kernels!"
