Transmigrated into a wealthy family's stepmother, I raised the villain into a sweet child.

The following two games are both physical activities: a three-legged race and musical chairs.

Zhou Yanqian, thanks to his recent training and his sharp mind, successfully overtook his competitors in both games, winning first place and second place respectively.

With the two coins given to him by the child, although the process wasn't as he had imagined, he ended up with exactly twenty game coins in his hand.

After the game, it's time to choose the ingredients for dinner. The child with the most game coins goes first, choosing one basket at a time and taking the basket back. The ingredients inside are the delicious dishes that the adults will need to cook that night.

Zhou Yanqian never expected that he would become the kid with the most game coins.

He walked over and took the number one basket directly. The basket was very heavy for him. Although he had been exercising recently, how much strength could a child have?

I couldn't help but put it down after taking a couple of steps.

Jinxi wanted to help, but the rules didn't allow it, so she had to kneel on one knee and look at Zanzan with a worried expression.

The heaviest things Zan Zan mentioned were probably his scooter and skateboard.

The second place went to Rui Rui. She scratched her little braids, picked up her basket, and ran very fast. However, when she got to Zan Zan, she stopped for a moment. But when Zan Zan looked at her, she picked up her basket and ran off again.

Zhou Yanqian looked over and raised an eyebrow. Was this a provocation?

If he hadn't been so short at three years old, he would have already...

A small hand helped him lift the other side of the basket, making the weight in his hand much lighter.

Zhou Yanqian looked over and saw Rui Rui running back. She smiled and said, "Let me help you, little brother Zan Zan!"

The kindergarten teacher said that children should help each other, and since she's the older sister, of course she should help the cute little brother Zan Zan!

Zhou Yanqian fell silent. With Rui Rui's help, the weight had been reduced by more than half. He didn't stop and walked to Jin Xi's side in one go.

Jinxi bent down and patted Ruirui's head: "Thank you, Ruirui, you are such a kind and helpful child."

Rui Rui raised her head: "You're welcome! I'm happy to help other children!"

After saying that, she hummed the jasmine flower song she had just learned and went to help little jasmine again.

Zhou Yanqian watched Rui Rui's retreating figure, his lips pressed tightly together.

Jinxi squatted down, opened the basket and saw that it was no wonder it was so heavy. In addition to the weight of the basket itself, there were also ribs and potatoes, two lettuce leaves and four eggs inside.

That adds up to about six or seven pounds. No wonder Zan Zan needs to rest after walking for a while. It seems I'll have to do some strength training with him when we get back.

Zhou Yanqian, who was unaware that he was going to have extra training, had very complicated feelings at the moment. These kids, although noisy, were indeed enthusiastic and generous.

However, this put him in a difficult position.

He has nothing to repay them with now.

Jinxi had been paying close attention to Zanzan's emotions. The child was staring at Ruirui and Jasmine's figures, seemingly lost in thought. Her brows twitched. If Jinxi wasn't mistaken, this was probably the first time Zanzan had received kindness from someone her own age, and she seemed a little flustered.

Before she came, Zan Zan rarely left the house, let alone played with other children or helped each other.

Jin Xi breathed a sigh of relief and pretended not to see it.

Each basket contained different ingredients, and once all the ingredients were selected, it was almost time to go back and cook.

Everyone went their separate ways. Jinxi carried a basket, while Zanzan slid around on his scooter, looking deep in thought.

Is it because you haven't thought it through yet?

Back in the yard, Zan Zan didn't go inside, but instead played on his scooter in the yard.

Zhou Yanqian thought about it for a long time before finally coming up with a solution.

When he returns to Jincheng, he'll have that man return his allowance, and then he'll buy each of them a toy.

He doesn't like owing favors to others; he prefers equal exchange or mutual benefit, which makes him feel at ease.

The more he thought about it, the better he felt this was a good idea. He would ask for the children's addresses tomorrow and have Butler Zhao deliver them when he got back.

After mentally rehearsing the situation, Zhou Yanqian finally felt relieved. This feeling of having something weighing on his mind was really uncomfortable.

He put the scooter aside and was about to go inside when he saw Jinxi come out: "Hmm? I was just about to ask you to be my deliveryman, come over here."

Zhou Yanqian tilted his head: "What are you doing?"

What kind of deliveryman?

He followed Jinxi into the kitchen, where four bowls of freshly steamed egg custard were placed on the counter.

Zhou Yanqian was a little puzzled. He and Jinxi only had two mouths, so why did they need four bowls of steamed egg custard?

But Jinxi quickly provided an answer. She brought over a basket used for carrying vegetables, put three bowls of steamed egg custard inside, and said softly, "Rui Rui, Mo Li, and Tian Tian were all very kind to help you. Take these steamed egg custards as a thank you gift. When you come back, you can have your share."

Zhou Yanqian stared blankly at Jin Xi, his mind a little blank, but the person in front of him just smiled gently, raised his hand and pinched his cheek: "This basket isn't heavy now, go quickly, the steamed egg custard won't taste good if it gets cold."

Jinxi took his hand and walked him to the door: "I'll cook for you at home. Be careful, okay?"

After saying that, he waved his hand, turned around, and went back.

Only Zan Zan and Luo Kuang remained, staring at each other in bewilderment.

Zan Zan didn't know how long she looked before she finally picked up the basket and walked upstairs without saying a word.

Jin Xi wasn't worried, since he had two directors accompanying him, so there was no danger.

She originally just wanted to steam a bowl of egg custard, since children consume energy quickly and Zan Zan played all afternoon. However, the ribs needed to be stewed until tender, which would take a long time.

However, seeing the little brat wandering around the yard in silence, looking restless, she changed her mind.

Who would have thought that God would just happen to give us four eggs?

So he quickly made four bowls of steamed egg custard and sent him to repay the "child's kindness".

Jinxi thought that if this matter wasn't resolved today, Zanzan would probably toss and turn all night, unable to sleep.

In order for her to go to sleep early, let's help the poor little cub wandering around in the yard!

Actually, apart from room number six, the other rooms are not far apart. Rooms number two and three are where Rui Rui and Tian Tian live, and they are right next to each other.

Zhou Yanqian originally intended to leave the steamed egg custard and go, with no desire to talk to the child at all.

But they were so enthusiastic, especially when they learned that he was going to deliver steamed egg custard to Jasmine. Rui Rui and Tian Tian both chose to accompany him and even offered to carry his basket.

Despite his repeated refusals, the two children acted as if they couldn't understand and pushed him aside.

Zhou Yanqian looked complicated as he followed them to room number five.

Jasmine was drinking milk when she saw Zanzan and the others arrive, and she exclaimed in surprise.

Rui Rui smiled and said, "Little Jasmine, little brother Zan Zan has something to tell you!"

Zhou Yanqian: ...Why can't you help him say everything at this time?

Jasmine looked at him with bright eyes and asked, "Little brother Zan Zan, what do you want to tell me?"

Zhou Yanqian took out the last bowl of steamed egg custard from the basket: "Here you go. Thank you for giving me game coins today. This was made for you by... Ms. Xiaoxi."

Jasmine exclaimed "Wow!" and turned to say, "Uncle, uncle! We're going to have steamed egg custard!"

Jasmine's uncle came out of the kitchen, and after trying to understand, he said, "Thank you, Zan Zan."

He greeted them twice and then took the steamed egg custard back to the kitchen.

Zhou Yanqian was about to leave when Jasmine grabbed his hand and asked, "Little brother Zanzan, who is Ms. Xiaoxi?"

Zhou Yanqian corrected, "It's 'Xi,' not 'Xi.' It's pronounced the same as the 'Xi' in 'like.'"

Why do all three of them pronounce "Xi" so badly?

Tian Tian, ​​with his chubby cheeks, explained, "It's Zan Zan's mommy! Zan Zan's mommy is Ms. Xiao Xi!"

Jasmine said "Oh," still puzzled, "Then why do you call your mommy 'Ms. Xiaoxi'?"

Zhou Yanqian silently covered his ears again, not answering anything else, only saying repeatedly, "It's Xi! It's not Xi, it's not Xi, and it's not Xi..."
