Xu Xiang looked at the crowd's reactions with satisfaction, and continued, "It's almost six o'clock now. We'll start eating at half past six. If you go late, I can't guarantee how much food will be left or whether the food is cold, so I hope everyone will hurry up."

He was so cruel that he threatened to have dinner with them! Everyone had a deeper understanding of the director's "perversion".

Xu Xiang didn't care at all that the guests were looking at him with sword-like eyes. He continued to announce the rules, "This time the selection order is based on the number of strokes in the mother's surname, so Shen Linyan is the first."

Shen Linyan was surprised for a moment. She was the first one?

But she had already figured out how to perform best, so she was not afraid.

She gently touched Liang Tianyi's head and said confidently, "I just discussed it with Tianyi. As a mother, I respect all of Tianyi's choices. There is nothing to guide. I believe that no matter what the final result is, we can handle it together."

Shen Linyan's words were unanimously recognized and praised in the live broadcast room.

[As expected of Shen Linyan, she is still so good at teaching children and giving them space to grow freely. ]

[Isn't she so confident because she taught Liang Tianyi well? I believe that even if he draws the walking card, Liang Tianyi will not make a fuss. ]

[What the above person said is right. Not everyone will teach their children this way.]

[And let the children make their own choices. No matter whether the final result is good or bad, the children will bear it themselves. ]

…

When Liang Tianyi saw his mother trusting him so much, his eyes lit up immediately, "Thank you, Mom."

After saying that, he turned around and hesitated among the five sugar paintings before finally choosing the horse. He explained to the camera, "I like the pony the best. When I ride on a horse, it's like a gust of wind. And I believe the pony will bring me good luck."

As he said this, he returned to Shen Linyan with the candy painting of a horse. Shen Linyan touched Liang Tianyi's head with a smile, looking very loving. Then the mother and son untied the paper tied to the bamboo stick together.

It was a pity that the pony did not bless them. After they opened the note, they saw a big word "walking".

The smiling faces of the mother and son suddenly fell, but they quickly recovered, hugged each other and encouraged each other, "It's okay, we can do it, it's only five kilometers, which is the distance of our previous morning run."

The picture of the mother and son hugging each other immediately moved many netizens in the live broadcast room.

[There is so much love, this is a mother and son who understand each other. 】

[I was so unlucky that I got to walk first.]

[There is so much love, no complaints, only encouragement for each other. 】

After Shen Linyan and her son finished drawing, it was Shen Qingqing's turn. For a moment, everyone's attention was focused on Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan.

Compared to being relieved about Shen Linyan and her son, everyone was looking forward to Shen Qingqing making trouble again.

Moreover, the two of them were right after each other. With Shen Linyan's "sensible" behavior first, if Shen Qingqing were to act like a demon, the contrast would only be more striking.

Will Shen Qingqing force Zhou Jiayan to choose the sugar painting according to her requirements? Or will she let the child choose by himself like Shen Linyan did?

Under the gaze of everyone, Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan started arguing with each other.

"Yanyan, don't you think that phoenix suits me very well? Go pick the sugar painting."

Zhou Jiayan pursed his lips and said, "I think the tiger is more handsome. I like tigers the most."

"Hey, you see the Phoenix area is obviously bigger. I'll give you all the candy then, and you can eat more."

Zhou Jiayan still ruthlessly refused, "Dad said that children can't eat too much candy, and I think Tiger is big enough."

…

The two of them started arguing directly, shocking many netizens.

[Damn, I didn't expect that the mother and son would actually start arguing. ]

【They are not giving in to each other, and they are really fighting. 】

【So everyone guess who will win in the end. 】

[It must be Zhou Jiayan, after all, it was Zhou Jiayan who made the choice.]

…

The mother and son argued for two minutes, neither giving in.

Director Xu Xiang was delighted to see them like this. This is a very good variety show effect.

Of course, he couldn't let Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan quarrel endlessly, so he cleared his throat and said, "Hurry up, two guests. I'll give you another half a minute to discuss."

At this moment, Shen Qingqing squatted down and looked at Zhou Jiayan. A pitiful expression appeared on her usually proud face. "Yanyan, have you forgotten what I said before you came that you are a little knight who has to protect me, the princess? Woo woo woo, I'm sad."

Zhou Jiayan was a little stunned. How could his stepmother change her expression so quickly? She even acted as if he had bullied her.

He has always been thin-skinned, and the tips of his ears instantly turned red. He denied it, "I never said I would protect you."

Shen Qingqing had a gorgeous appearance, but her eyes were full of innocence. She continued to look at Zhou Jiayan, looking like she was about to cry, "But you didn't refuse."

[Hahaha, Shen Qingqing is really amazing. She actually "attacked" Yanyan like this.]

[Shen Qingqing is such a dramatic actress. I admire her speed of changing her expression.]

[But I think this trick is useful for mature men, such as her husband. Will Zhou Jiayan fall for it? ]

【Come on, Yanyan! Don’t be soft-hearted! 】

…

Zhou Jiayan stamped her feet, turned her head away from Shen Qingqing, and ran towards the table where the sugar paintings were placed.

His little brows were furrowed and his eyes wandered over the sugar painting, as if he was making a very important decision.

He stretched out his little hand and waved it back and forth between the five sugar paintings, and finally reached out to the tiger sugar painting.

[It seems that Yanyan will still choose according to her own wishes. ]

[I said Shen Qingqing's tricks won't work. Children won't fall for girls' coquetry.]

【Support Yanyan to choose according to her own wishes. 】

[I want to see Shen Qingqing's expression. ]

…

Just when everyone thought that Zhou Jiayan had chosen the tiger sugar painting, Zhou Jiayan's hand turned again and took out the phoenix-shaped sugar painting on the side.

Everyone was stunned by this change, but Zhou Jiayan ran back to Shen Qingqing with the sugar painting and handed it to Shen Qingqing.

He looked at Shen Qingqing with a firm gaze, but his tone was cool, "Here you go. I'm a little man, so I'll let you go this time."

Seeing this scene, netizens exclaimed again.

[Oh my god, I actually felt the boyfriend power from a five-year-old child. ]

[So spoiled, Shen Qingqing is so happy. 】

【Wow, what kind of divine son is this.】

[I really wish I was born 20 years later, Yanyan would be my husband. ]

…

When Shen Qingqing saw the sugar painting with a phoenix pattern that Zhou Jiayan handed over, she felt her heart skip a beat.

In the past week or so since she came here, she actually didn't feel anything real. Perhaps because she knew this was a world in a book, she also regarded this life as a retirement life to let herself go, and she looked at the people around her more from the perspective of a bystander.

As for Zhou Jiayan, she used to treat him more like one of those kids on the Internet in her previous life, or other people’s children, whom she would tease whenever she felt like it.

She almost forgot that Zhou Jiayan was a five-year-old boy with flesh and blood, emotions, and a hard-mouthed but soft-hearted heart. Everything she did had an impact on this little boy.

And this little brat is really good at it!

In her previous life, Shen Qingqing had been pursued and courted by others before, but she could always see calculation in those men's eyes.

However, Zhou Jiayan in front of her had a pure look in his eyes. He made the choice according to her ideas not because he wanted to please her, but simply because he didn't want to make her sad.

Shen Qingqing rarely stopped joking, "Thank you Yanyan." Then she took the sugar painting solemnly, "Then let's open the paper together."

[It was the first time she saw Shen Qingqing being so serious, and she was also moved by Yanyan. ]

[Yanyan is so sensible and spoiled. If I were his mother, I would probably cry right now.]

[They were quarreling before, but now they are suddenly so affectionate that I almost cried. ]

[+1 to the above. To be honest, I think this is more touching than the previous couple.]

…

Then Shen Qingqing's big hand and Zhou Jiayan's small hand together tore apart the paper at the end of the bamboo stick, and then they saw the big words "walking".

In an instant, the smiling expressions of both of them fell.

What kind of luck is this that two groups of guests drew “walking” in a row!

Shen Qingqing felt guilty. She had indeed forced herself to choose this pattern, and Shen Linyan had already chosen the other one, "Walking", so none of the remaining ones would be walking. If she chose according to Zhou Jiayan's wishes...

Zhou Jiayan glanced at Shen Qingqing with a hard-to-speak look, sighed heavily, and spread his hands, "Alas, this is not my fault."

Shen Qingqing is the kind of person who can reflect on herself but doesn't like others to blame her, so she immediately said seriously, "This is obviously a matter of luck, it has nothing to do with choice, how can you blame me!"

However, she felt guilty and quickly changed the subject. She patted Zhou Jiayan on the shoulder and said, "It's useless for us to blame each other now that things have developed to this point. Things will work out when the time comes. Yanyan, believe me. I will definitely find a way to prevent you from suffering."

However, what answered Shen Qingqing was Zhou Jiayan's look of obvious distrust.

The only one who didn't trust Shen Qingqing was Zhou Jiayan, and netizens in the live broadcast room also made doubtful comments.

[My expression now is the same as Yanyan's. ]

[Yanyan has a hard time having a mother like Shen Qingqing who is unreliable and has bad luck. ]

[I suspect that Shen Qingqing started to make a scene halfway through the journey, and Yanyan comforted her.]

[I'm very curious, what's the basis for Shen Qingqing to say that she won't let Yanyan suffer, and is she relying on directly making trouble to force the production team to take them to where they live? ]

【Hahaha, I really don’t know.】

…

Considering the urgency of time and the fact that the first two groups of guests had drawn the "walking" method, the program crew did not keep them for long and let them go as soon as the draw results came out.

Shen Linyan has always been a good person. Even though she didn't like Shen Qingqing, she still stepped forward and smiled, "Qingqing, we are all walking, why don't we have a companion on the road? If anything happens on the road, we can help each other. Tianyi and I go jogging every morning, and we are pretty strong."

As soon as these words came out, the live broadcast room was filled with comments praising Shen Linyan.

[Lin Yan is so kind. She is so tired, but she still wants to take care of Shen Qingqing.]

[My goddess is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted. ]

[Lin Yan, run quickly, Shen Qingqing is not worth it! ]

[Lin Yan is a good mother who can set an example for her children! ]

…

Shen Qingqing could guess Shen Linyan's plan. If she agreed to go with her, when she was being willful and bad, Shen Linyan would come forward to be a good person to show her magnanimity. If she didn't agree, her image as a beautiful and kind person would have been established anyway.

She used to be like this in front of Shen's father. She would deliberately say something to provoke the original body from time to time, and the original body would start to lose her temper and get angry at her. At this time, Shen's father would often happen to pass by.

After a while, Shen's father would think that it was Shen Qingqing who was acting like a spoiled little princess and bullying Shen Linyan, and Shen Linyan had been silently enduring it. This crude green tea trick worked every time he encountered her straightforward original self.

In her previous life, Shen Qingqing had been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years and had met all kinds of scheming people. She looked down upon Shen Linyan's methods. Of course, the most important thing was that she was too lazy to play tricks on Shen Linyan.

If she had the energy, she might as well go and tease Zhou Jiayan, that would be much more interesting.

And the most important thing is that she doesn't intend to actually walk to their residence. Let Shen Linyan perform this inspirational drama of abiding by the rules and working hard to complete the task.

She smiled and said, "No need. I'm not in good physical condition and it would be bad if I trouble you. Just leave some dinner for me and Yanyan when you get here."

Shen Linyan was not surprised by Shen Qingqing's decisive rejection. Just as she hated Shen Qingqing deep down in her heart, Shen Qingqing also hated her.

It's just that in order to survive, she would maintain harmony with Shen Qingqing on the surface, but Shen Qingqing has always been willful and often refuses to even put in the superficial effort.

This time, Shen Qingqing's refusal was much more tactful than before. In the past, Shen Qingqing would probably criticize her unconvincedly and then refuse.

Shen Linyan felt a little disappointed. Shen Qingqing had really become a lot smarter.

She still maintained a smile on her face. "Since you said so, I won't force it. Anyway, we all brought our cell phones. If you need anything, feel free to call me."

After saying this, Shen Linyan turned around and took Liang Tianyi into the ancient town.

Shen Qingqing took Zhou Jiayan into the ancient town only when she saw that Shen Linyan was about 100 meters away from her.

But this time she did not rush forward with Zhou Jiayan, but looked around and observed carefully.

Zhou Jiayan was a little puzzled and tugged at Shen Qingqing's skirt. "Shouldn't we hurry to our residence now?"

Shen Qingqing tapped Zhou Jiayan's head gently, "You stupid little fool, I'm teaching you how to outsmart me."

As a commercialized town, "Zhuangyuan Town" naturally has many business people in the town. Since they need to do business, they definitely need transportation to deliver goods.

The town prohibits vehicles such as cars that burn gasoline from entering, but small electric cars and electric tricycles have definitely become the main means of transporting goods for merchants in the town.

Of course, Shen Qingqing was very particular about choosing stores. First of all, she passed up restaurants. Trucks that transport fresh vegetables would definitely not be clean, so she might as well just walk.

Soon Shen Qingqing locked onto a shop selling handicrafts. The business of that shop did not seem to be very good. A middle-aged woman in her fifties was sitting near the door, weaving knots of different patterns with colorful silk threads.

However, in Shen Qingqing's opinion, the pattern of the knot is outdated and its practical value is not high. No wonder the store's business is not good.

Shen Qingqing then took Zhou Jiayan's hand and walked to the front of the store, and said to the middle-aged woman, "Sister, have you ever thought about changing these handicrafts of yours to something more fashionable?"

After hearing Shen Qingqing's words, the woman looked up and saw a fairy-like figure standing in front of her. She was somewhat amazed by her outstanding appearance, but the anti-fraud awareness entered her brain even faster.

She looked Shen Qingqing up and down, then said with a heavy face, "You are such a beautiful girl, how can you be a liar? We police have done a lot of publicity, don't try to fool me."

The words Shen Qingqing had prepared were stuck in her throat. She never dreamed that she would be regarded as a liar.

Should we praise the police for their effective anti-fraud propaganda?

The audience in the live broadcast room burst into laughter when they saw this scene.

【Hahahaha, what a great development, the aunt's reaction is so funny. 】

[Thumbs up to the aunt! I really enjoy seeing Shen Qingqing get humiliated.]

[Hahahaha, our country’s anti-fraud propaganda is really good now. Even the aunties in remote areas have this awareness.]

[But what on earth does Shen Qingqing want to do? Why is she looking for a handicraft shop? Can this help her? ]

…

Shen Qingqing took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, and smiled, "Sister, I'm not a liar. I'm here to record a show. Of course, I'm not a famous star, so it's normal that you don't know me. But you can look at the photographers behind me. They are all from the "Almighty Mom" ​​program team."

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman looked behind Shen Qingqing, and sure enough, she saw several staff members in black clothes and carrying cameras, with the four big words "Almighty Mom" ​​written on their T-shirts.

Although the middle-aged woman didn't know much about the entertainment industry, she had watched this kind of nationally popular variety show. In addition, a few days ago, she heard Xiao Yang next door say that there seemed to be a variety show that was going to be filmed in their place, so the middle-aged woman believed it for the most part.

So she smiled brightly, fixed her hair, and asked Shen Qingqing, "Will I appear in the camera? Oh, if I had known, I would have dressed up this morning."

Shen Qingqing always speaks sweetly to those who want to please her, "Big sister, you are in such a good spirit, we young people are not as good as you, don't worry."

"Hahaha, big sister, you are really good at talking." The middle-aged woman liked Shen Qingqing more and more. She just thought that it was impossible for such a beautiful girl to become a liar. She thought of Shen Qingqing's words just now, "What did you mean by what you said to big sister just now? Do you want to do a mission?"

Seeing that her elder sister had directly asked about her purpose, Shen Qingqing stopped talking nonsense and explained directly, "It's like this, elder sister. I noticed that most of the items in your shop are handicrafts you knitted, but your shop doesn't seem to be doing well, so I wanted to give you some advice."

The middle-aged woman felt the same way. "Big sister, to be honest with you, my business is not only not good, it is very bad. Fortunately, this is my family's shop. My son works outside and gives me living expenses every month. So I don't care much about the amount of money. But there should be no one who doesn't want to make more money. Sister, you are a star, you know a lot, just tell me directly."

Shen Qingqing smiled and said, "Sister, do you know what's popular among young girls now? They are now popular wearing Hanfu, especially since this is an ancient town. There must be more young girls wearing Hanfu to check in. I see that your craftsmanship is very good, so you can consider learning to make Hanfu accessories online."

The middle-aged woman's eyes lit up immediately. "Why are there so many young girls wearing ancient costumes now? I thought they were here to film a movie. It turns out that wearing Hanfu is popular now. So where do you learn it online?"

Shen Qingqing took out her phone and said, "Sister, why don't you add me on WeChat? I'll send you the tutorial later."

The middle-aged woman didn't expect the girl in front of her to be so down-to-earth, so she took out her cell phone and added her on WeChat.

But she had been doing business for so many years and had watched many episodes of the show before. After adding her on WeChat, she said, "Big sister, I know you are not here just to help me. Are you completing the program team's mission?"

Shen Qingqing smiled shyly at the right moment. "Big sister, I won't hide it from you. This is not a mission. I just want to ask you for a small favor. You have also watched our program and know that the program crew is used to tormenting the guests. Unfortunately, my son and I were drawn to walk to our residence 5 kilometers away today, and we are not allowed to use currency. We have been tormented for a whole day to get here, and we are really tired. It's okay for an adult like me, but the child is only five years old... So I would like to ask if there is a faster means of transporting goods at home to pick us up."

The middle-aged woman lowered her head when she heard that, and saw a cute little boy in a small suit standing next to Shen Qingqing, looking at her with his big watery eyes.

When a woman at this age likes children the most, she will be so moved by their cuteness that there is no reason for her to refuse.

"Oh, I don't think it's such a big deal. Cars are not allowed in the ancient town now, so we usually deliver goods in electric tricycles. Sister, if you don't mind, you and your son can sit in the back and I will take you there."

Shen Qingqing smiled even more, "Thank you so much, sister." She patted Zhou Jiayan beside her and said, "Why don't you say thank you to auntie quickly."

Zhou Jiayan was already dumbfounded when he saw his stepmother's actions. When Shen Qingqing patted him like this, he subconsciously shouted, "Thank you, Auntie."

When the middle-aged woman heard herself being called auntie by such a young child, she laughed even more happily, "Hahaha, sister, you and your son can talk. I'm almost a grandmother, and you still call me auntie."

Shen Qingqing acted surprised, "Oh, sister, I think you look about 40 years old, and you're going to have a grandchild soon?"

The middle-aged woman was successfully coaxed into being happier, so she entrusted the shop to her familiar neighbor next door, grabbed the key and went to the backyard of the shop and rode the electric tricycle.

Shen Qingqing took Zhou Jiayan to sit on the back seat of the electric tricycle. Although the road was a bit bumpy and the wind was a bit strong when the tricycle started, it was still much better than walking.

Feeling the wind blowing in her face, Shen Qingqing poked the silent child beside her and boasted, "Did you see that? I told you I have a way and I won't let you suffer."

Zhou Jiayan responded to Shen Qingqing with a very arrogant "humph". He had to admit that this stepmother seemed to be quite something!

The audience in the live broadcast room were also shocked.

[I have to admit that Shen Qingqing might actually have some brains, and her operations were smooth and flowing.]

[Damn it! I wanted to see Shen Qingqing break down and cry halfway through the journey, but she just turned around and got on the electric tricycle.]

[And she is really good at talking. She made the older sister so happy with just a few words.]

[How come she offended so many people before when she is so good at talking? Are resourceful people fearless? ]

Of course there are also discordant voices.

[Shen Qingqing, is this considered cheating? Did the program team say that you can ask outsiders for help? ]

[That’s right, this is considered taking advantage of ordinary people, is this okay? ]

[I feel sorry for Shen Linyan and her son who are doing their tasks honestly next door. 】

However, most netizens who watched the whole process still knew the right from wrong, and someone quickly refuted it.

[Isn't Shen Qingqing doing what is within the program rules? The program team said that money is not allowed, so she is just exchanging her mental labor with the store owner. ]

[There is nothing wrong with Shen Qingqing in this matter. Those who criticize her simply want to see Shen Qingqing suffer. ]

…

At the same time, Shen Linyan was leading Liang Tianyi walking on the bluestone road in the town.

The bluestone slabs were not smooth, and when Shen Linyan and the others pushed the boxes, a "clang clang clang" sound was made, and gradually their speed slowed down.

Although Shen Linyan was impatient in her heart, she still kept a smile on her face.

Although it was unlucky to be drawn to walk, Shen Qingqing also got it. Now the better she performs and the more hardworking she is, the more Shen Qingqing's affectation and pretentiousness will be highlighted.

As they walked, she encouraged her stepson, "Xiaoyi, we are almost one-third of the way there. Come on, victory is just around the corner."

Liang Tianyi is just a child after all. Although he participates in many sports on weekdays, he still feels a little overwhelmed after such a high-intensity journey today.

After hearing what his mother said, he felt even more aggrieved. He had walked for so long and had only walked one-third of the way!

Although Liang Tianyi was well educated, he was a spoiled child after all. He pouted and said, "Mom, I don't want to go anymore. There's still a long way to go. I don't want to participate in the show and want to go home."

Hearing what her stepson said, Shen Linyan suppressed her impatience, turned around, and squatted down to be level with her stepson, and said earnestly, "Xiaoyi, these are the rules of the show. Since you agreed to participate in the show, you must abide by them. If you give up halfway like this, not only mom, but also grandparents and dad will be angry when they see it."

"But I'm really tired. My feet hurt."

When Shen Linyan wanted to continue comforting her stepson, she saw an electric tricycle passing by, and sitting in the back of the car were Shen Qingqing and her son.

Shen Linyan's first reaction was that Shen Qingqing was throwing a tantrum again, forcing the program crew to send an electric tricycle to take her to her residence.

She felt that the program crew was unfair, but she was secretly happy at the same time. Shen Qingqing would probably be scolded to death by netizens for doing this, and she might even have been on the hot search list now.

Liang Tianyi also saw Zhou Jiayan on the electric tricycle. There was no twists and turns between the two kids, and they had a very good relationship. Therefore, Liang Tianyi waved his hands happily and shouted, "Jiayan, Zhou Jiayan, I'm here."

When Zhou Jiayan heard his friends calling him, he waved his hands happily and asked his aunt to stop for a while.

When the cute little kid spoke, there was no reason for the middle-aged woman to refuse, so she braked immediately.

Then Liang Tianyi took a few steps forward, opened his eyes wide, and said with surprise and envy, "Wow, you have a car to ride in, that's great."

Seeing her stepson walk up, Shen Linyan followed him. Seeing this, she said with a somewhat disapproving tone, "Qingqing, where did you get this car? You didn't force the program team to get it. I don't think this is a good idea."

Before Shen Qingqing could open her mouth to refute, Zhou Jiayan spoke up, with an uncontrollable pride in his tone, "My mother gave this auntie some advice, and in exchange, this auntie agreed to drive us to our residence, not the show crew's car."

Shen Qingqing couldn't help but touch Zhou Jiayan's round head. This little brat has actually learned to show off.

Then she smiled and said, "The program team stipulates that money cannot be used, but that doesn't mean we can't exchange it for something of equal value, right?"

Shen Linyan's mood sank to the bottom after hearing what Shen Qingqing and her son said. Shen Qingqing actually had such a trick. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Qingqing, it's really hard for you to come up with this idea."

Compared to Shen Linyan's complicated thoughts, Liang Tianyi was left with only envy, "Wow, Auntie, you are amazing. Yanyan, you are so lucky that you don't have to walk. I am so tired from walking. And the ground is not flat, it is difficult to push the box."

Hearing the envy expressed by his friends, Zhou Jiayan felt even more proud. If he had a tail, it would probably have reached the sky.

But he was also a kind-hearted child. After hearing his friend's complaints and looking at the remaining space on the tricycle, he said, "Xiao Yi, there's still some space on this tricycle. Why don't you come up and sit with us? Although it's a bit bumpy and uncomfortable, it's much faster than walking."

After saying that, he turned to the middle-aged woman and said, "Auntie, you don't mind having Xiao Yi and his mother."

The middle-aged woman nodded immediately. "Of course I don't mind. It's electric anyway, and it doesn't take much effort on my part."

Liang Tianyi's eyes lit up after hearing his friend's suggestion, and then he looked at Shen Linyan with sparkling eyes, "Mom, why don't we join them..."

Shen Linyan was not willing to accept Shen Qingqing's favor. She would rather die of exhaustion than bow to Shen Qingqing.

So she showed an embarrassed expression and said, "There's not much space left on your tricycle. There's no room for mother and son. Let's just forget it. This distance isn't that far."

"But, Mom..." Liang Tianyi wanted to argue a few more words, but was blocked by Shen Linyan.

"Okay, Tianyi, you are already five years old, it's time for you to be sensible and stop bothering others."

When Shen Qingqing saw Shen Linyan's reaction, she could guess what she was thinking. She was really trying to save face but ended up suffering. Not only did she suffer, but she also made the child suffer.

She was not a kind person, but she was willing to take care of the cute little kid. She said, "Sister Lin Yan, what you said makes sense. There is not much space left in this car. I am afraid something might happen if we squeeze in. But this car can definitely take another child. Otherwise, why don't you let Xiaoyi go with us and push the luggage to where we live?"

Shen Qingqing's words made Shen Linyan feel extremely aggrieved, but she couldn't refuse.

If Shen Linyan refused to let Liang Tianyi go with them, it would be like disregarding the health of her stepson. If she agreed, it would be like she accepted Shen Qingqing's favor, and Shen Qingqing would not have to take her, a "hateful" person, with her.

She lowered her head and looked at Liang Tianyi again. The child's face was also very conflicted. On the one hand, she didn't want to be so tired anymore, but on the other hand, she didn't want to leave her mother.

Shen Linyan asked again, "Xiaoyi, do you want to follow them?"

Liang Tianyi was very hesitant, but in the end his childish nature prevailed and he nodded, "Mom, I really don't want to be so tired, I'm sorry."

Hearing this, Shen Linyan knew she had lost. She was annoyed at Shen Qingqing's "provokation" and began to feel that if the child was not hers, she would never be able to raise him.

But what can she do? She still has to be "wholeheartedly" good to Liang Tianyi so that she can continue to gain a foothold in the Liang family.

Shen Linyan quickly adjusted her mentality and smiled gently, "What's there to be sorry about? Mom knows you are tired today. Just go with Auntie and Yanyan. Mom will be here soon."

Liang Tianyi raised his head and carefully looked at Shen Linyan's face. After making sure that she was not angry, he nodded, "Okay. Mom, I'll wait for you. I'll leave you a lot of food."

Afterwards, Shen Linyan carried Liang Tianyi into the car and gave him a few words. Finally, Shen Linyan thanked Shen Qingqing, "Qingqing, thank you so much."

Shen Qingqing admired Shen Linyan's adaptability very much. She was able to adjust her mentality so quickly and even said thank you to her. How could she lose?

She also smiled, "It's okay. As mothers, we definitely don't want our children to suffer with us, and they are still children. Don't worry, I will definitely bring Xiaoyi to where I live safely."

After the two exchanged a few more pleasantries, the electric tricycle started again, leaving Shen Linyan behind to continue walking forward miserably.

Shen Linyan had already arranged a high-level internet army in the live broadcast room of the program, and they had already set the pace at this time. What's more, they had also received instructions that in addition to praising Shen Linyan, they could also appropriately guide the unfavorable public opinion about Shen Qingqing.

[I feel sorry for Shen Linyan, seeing her all alone.]

[Shen Linyan really worked too hard. The production team was so shameless that they tortured such a beautiful woman.]

[She is such a good mother. She let her child follow Shen Qingqing, but she continued to move forward according to the rules.]

…

However, netizens who watched the whole incident develop quickly realized that something was wrong.

[But, wasn't it her own choice to walk alone? ]

[Some fans are so green tea. Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan don't have to walk because they rely on their own wisdom. ]

[I was just about to say this, what does Shen Linyan mean when she saw Shen Qingqing's first sentence, indiscriminately saying that they asked the program team for it?]

[Today Shen Qingqing is kindhearted and helped Shen Linyan take care of her children. Why do some of Shen Linyan's fans not know how to be grateful and even make insinuations about her? ]

…

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the navy immediately began to smooth things over.

[Fans probably feel bad for their idols. I think everyone is overthinking this.]

[Shen Linyan's first question probably had no malicious intent. Many people's first reaction must have been what Shen Qingqing had done to the program team.]

[Everyone is thinking a lot. I think the relationship between the two is obviously very good. If Shen Qingqing is really unhappy, she probably won't agree to help Shen Linyan take care of the child. ]

…

Under the strong offensive of the navy, the dispute quickly passed and did not escalate.

The tricycle was very fast, and after more than ten minutes, Shen Qingqing and the others arrived at their residence for the next few days - Zhuangyuan Mansion.

It is said that this is the mansion built by the top scholar of the previous dynasty after he returned home in glory. It is still well preserved. A small part of the courtyard inside has been converted into a hotel for people to live in, and this is where the guests will stay this time.

At this time, director Xu Xiang was standing at the gate of Zhuangyuan Mansion. He came here with Cui Xia, the amateur guest who won the electric car, and they had just arrived.

Seeing Shen Qingqing actually brought two children here on an electric tricycle, he was very shocked, "Ms. Shen, where did you get this electric tricycle? You didn't pay to hire it, did you? This is not in compliance with the rules of our program."

Shen Qingqing smiled and pointed at the middle-aged woman next to her and said, "Director, I didn't spend a penny. I just gave this lady a little idea and she agreed to bring us here. As for little Liang Tianyi, we met him halfway and there happened to be an empty seat, so we brought him along."

At this time, the photographer who had been taking pictures of Shen Qingqing came forward and told Xu Xiang what had happened. Even a strict person like Xu Xiang had to admit that Shen Qingqing had not violated any rules.

At this time, the middle-aged woman came forward with a kind smile and said to Xu Xiang, "Director, can you leave some shots for me? I want to see myself on TV. When the show starts, I will definitely help you promote it."

Although Xu Xiang likes to tease the guests on the show, he is still very friendly to the local residents. The elder sister is so enthusiastic, and the show cannot avoid the elder sister's camera when it is officially broadcast, so he smiled and assured, "Don't worry, elder sister, I will definitely leave some shots for you, just wait to see yourself on TV."

The middle-aged woman was very satisfied after hearing this. She said goodbye to Shen Qingqing and rode away on her tricycle.

Seeing that the director looked depressed but didn't say anything, Shen Qingqing knew that she had passed the test. Then she pushed the suitcase and brought the two little kids into the house.

However, Xu Xiang sighed as he looked at Shen Qingqing's back. He didn't expect that her mind was so flexible that he could find a loophole again.

No, he must check the next competition items again and make sure Shen Qingqing doesn't find any loopholes!
