Chapter 373 - You're Welcome
Knowing they were going to be on the show, the villagers prepared the most distinctive local dishes.
When everyone entered, they saw a long table filled with people. The children were stunned, and even Qin Si and Ye Yuanzhi were stunned for a moment.
Wei Tang instantly became excited: "Wow, there are so many foods here! I've never seen so much food before. I'm so happy! These are all our lunches."
Wei Jin slapped his son on the forehead, but not too hard:
"Eat, eat, eat! All you do is eat all day long! There's so much food, how can we possibly finish it? And you're not fat enough! Eat less! Your kindergarten teacher said you broke all the other kids' toys."
Wei Tang said aggrievedly, "But the food is so delicious. I can even feel them waving at me."
"Then look at your brother Xiaosi and your brother Xiaozhi. Why aren't they fat? Why don't they think about eating all the time?" Wei Jin was really upset by the tragic contrast between his son and the two little guys next to him:
"They think about useful things every day. They even bring books and notebooks after handing in snacks. Look at you, sigh."
Wei Tang was not afraid of him at all. He ran to Qin Si and said to him in a very cute way:
"Brother Xiaosi, please eat more later so that Dad can see. We kids all eat a lot."
"Okay, no problem." Qin Si thought that since he was hungry today, he should be able to eat a lot.
Wei Tang wanted to go find Ye Yuanzhi, but seeing how small Ye Yuanzhi was, he figured he probably couldn't eat much, so he gave up.
The village chief stood at the front, a white-haired old man. He said his last name was He, so everyone called him Grandpa He.
Shi Feiye felt that it was not easy for an old man of his age to still choose to accept modern things, manage the connection between the village and the program crew, and earn an income for the villagers, so he treated Grandpa He with a little more patience.
Grandpa He was very kind, and he asked everyone to take their seats quickly. He also said that he had prepared a sumptuous lunch for the program team, which was very thoughtful.
"Knowing there were children coming this time, we specially prepared a lot of cakes. These are the foods we often give to children in our village. They are good for their health."
Grandpa He pointed to the various folk cakes on the coarse porcelain plates on the table and smiled as he invited everyone to taste them.
Yun Duo was about to take it, but Yun Shang stopped her: "Duo Duo, have you forgotten how you completed your mission? Who is it that allowed our family to have lunch today?"
Yun Duo tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering loudly, "It was Brother Xiao Si and Brother Xiao Zhi. They helped me, so I was able to complete the mission and have something to eat."
"Yes, so shouldn't you thank them?" Yun Shang patiently coaxed.
"Yes, Grandpa said that if someone helps me, I should thank them." Yun Duo is still a very reasonable little girl.
"So, how about we give them the snacks as a thank you?" Yun Shang asked tentatively.
He also wanted to see whether Yun Duo's mindset was more important, her food or her moral character, and to see how strict she was in educating her children.
Yun Duo's hand, which was about to take the cake, froze. She silently withdrew her hand and entangled it with hers for a full half minute before finally making up her mind. Although she felt a little aggrieved and reluctant, she was still determined:
"Okay, give it to Brother Xiaosi and Brother Xiaozhi. Thank you for helping me."
Yun Shang suddenly laughed. Fortunately, the child was kinder and more principled than he thought. She wasn't a little girl who didn't know right from wrong and only knew how to make trouble.
He touched Yun Duo's head and said, "Okay, then go and tell them."
Needless to say, Qin Si was watching the whole process from the side.
You don't have any cakes at home, so why do you come here to eat? And you want to steal the little girl's food?
Qin Si felt that no matter how cunning or indifferent he was to others, he wouldn't be so cruel. Besides, he had only helped Yun Duo because he needed to perform for the show, and he didn't expect her to thank him.
So, Yun Duo had just walked in front of Qin Si and Ye Yuanzhi when Qin Si pulled Ye Yuanzhi aside and forced a smile and said to Yun Duo:
"Xiaozhi and I heard what you said just now, but we can't eat so much. We appreciate your kindness. Since you are so good, keep it for yourself."
Yun Duo gestured to look at Yun Shang, who just looked at her quietly, waiting for her to make her own decision.
The cloud's two little hands began to tangle again, not knowing what to do.
Qin Si quickly added, "Besides, we boys don't really like cakes. If you really want to thank us, you can go back and pick a wild flower for us."
There was no problem picking flowers from this cloud. The little girl immediately became happy and was very willing to exchange flowers for cakes:
"Okay, thank you Brother Xiaosi, thank you Brother Xiaozhi."
The little girl's eyes curved with a smile, looking quite adorable. Qin Si breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head: "You're welcome."
Ye Yuanzhi remained silent throughout, not expressing any opinions. He simply looked at Qin Si and spoke as if Qin Si's opinions were his own. To outsiders, it seemed that this was indeed the case. It seemed that in Ye Yuanzhi's eyes, Qin Si was one of his own family, and he could make decisions for him.
Yun Duo happily went back to find Yun Shang. Yun Shang's affection for Qin Si and Ye Yuanzhi continued to grow, and he felt that his silly girl was so far behind them.
Look at Qin Si, he managed to smooth things over with just a few words, showing his willingness to help others without asking for anything in return and his high emotional intelligence. Needless to say, he's definitely gained a lot of fans.
In fact, it is true, and there is another round of praise in the barrage:
"Look, look, look, our Xiao Si is already a smart, handsome, and emotionally intelligent little boy at such a young age."
"I actually want to date a little kid. She already knows how to flirt with girls at such a young age. My husband is a complete loser."
"Alas, I don't ask for a grandson like this anymore. If my son had half the emotional intelligence of Xiao Si, he wouldn't still be barking all day. Is it really because I failed in my parenting? When will I be able to see a grandson, even if it's just someone like Tang Tang."
"There's a kind of excellence that's not only about money and background, but also about intelligence and emotional intelligence. How come these people have all the good things in the world? The children of wealthy families are all so unlucky. It's so unfair."
"I'm looking for a boyfriend online. I don't want a young or old guy, but I want someone as considerate, thoughtful, and principled as Xiao Si. Of course, the most important thing is that he's smart. Genes are very important."
