Mommy, don't be afraid, I'll bring you blind boxes and scam you out of a wealthy family to

Wen Li's small hands held a phone that was almost bigger than her face, as if she were holding a book.

On the other side of the book, there is a drawing of her warmest home.

"Gugu, Brother Shuo Shuo made a dress for Li Bao!"

"Uncle, Uncle Lin can drive a car!"

"Grandpa, Li Bao misses you..."

Not only did they share their love equally, but they also customized different content for each message, ensuring that everyone could feel the unique care and love that the milk dumplings have for them.

The little dumpling, who had been feeling down, started chattering away with her family about what she had seen and heard that day, and the smile returned to her face.

Duan Hetong checked the time: "Alright, that's enough for now. Li Bao should go to sleep."

Everyone was reluctant to part.

Wen Li waved her little hand: "Goodnight, Grandpa; goodnight, Gugu; goodnight, Uncle."

The most important person is saved for last: "Goodnight."

"Daddy will pick you up from our trip and take you home," Duan Hetong smiled. "Goodnight, baby."

"Okay~~"

After the video call ended, the room fell silent again.

But the child's broken heart has been repaired by love.

Wen Li hugged her doll and snuggled into bed.

The antler-shaped nightlights overhead were dim and yellowish.

Before long, the little bundle of joy had already drifted off to sleep.

[Let me steal a kiss from Pear!]

Goodnight, little princess.

Goodnight, baby, see you tomorrow!

After making sure all the cameras in the room were turned off and covered, Kee was thinking about whether she should stay with Wu Shuo for a while, but the young boy took the initiative to "kick" him out.

Kee felt helpless, as the person she had mentored was the most mature and independent little adult, someone on a variety show who didn't seem to need any extra help.

He greeted the staff who were still outside, found a quiet corner, and dialed his cell phone.

"Second brother, you haven't rested yet, have you?"

"No, Dad's still playing chess with Uncle Wu." The voice on the other end was cool and aloof. "How's the recording of your show with Xiao Shuo going?"

"It's pretty easy, I feel like I'm not very useful."

"You need to set a good example for Xiao Shuo. Uncle Wu agreed because..."

"Okay, okay, Second Brother, why are you so long-winded? You're becoming more and more like Big Brother."

"If you don't want to hear it, I won't say it."

"Hey Second Brother, I'm not calling to chat, I have something to ask you. Did you watch the show? Was that little girl Xie Lin was with the adopted child of the Duan family?"

"Didn't you already know?"

"Do you know anything about her family background? I feel like I've seen her before, and that surname... could she be a distant relative from back home or something?"

"I've seen her at the Duan family's house. And at the time, I had similar thoughts to yours, so I investigated." A soft sigh came from the other end of the phone. "The result was that there was no connection whatsoever."

"Oh, I see..." Kee was disappointed, but then joked, "But having a daughter feels so great! How about this, second brother, why don't you get married and give it a try?"

"..."

Kee wasn't angry when the call was hung up on. He put away his phone and started thinking to himself, "Xie Lin is always showing off how close he is to Li Bao. I want the awards he wins, and I want the godfather position he's in—that way, I'll have a little dumpling to play with, right?"

the next day.

Five families arrived at the center of the camp, where the mission cards were already laid out.

Chen Fang took it and read: "Today, the children are in charge of buying groceries. Whatever they buy, that's what we'll cook for dinner."

Staff members handed out shopping baskets and program tokens to the children.

The children started discussing it enthusiastically.

Li Li was the first to raise her hand: "Is beef or pork better? Chicken is good too! I like fish too!"

Brady looked down as he counted the tokens, calculating how to arrange them.

What Little Pin cares about most is, of course, "Can I buy snacks?"

After receiving a negative answer, her little face immediately filled with disappointment: "Okay..."

The adults couldn't help but laugh.

Wenli's little basket was smaller than the boys' and was decorated with dried flowers and fake mushrooms.

She carefully placed the tokens into her small backpack, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Pear, I haven't gone grocery shopping yet.

After saying goodbye to their respective partners, the children set off.

The market at the destination had been fenced off early and was already crowded with onlookers.

The live broadcast of the first day of filming for the variety show went viral online, and the children quickly gained a group of older female fans and mothers who were excitedly calling out their names outside, with the name Wen Li being particularly loud.

Wen Li has experienced a lot in her life. Although she was a little shy, she wasn't scared and even waved her little hand to greet everyone.

—The screams were deafening.

Five children, each wearing a badge featuring an animal, and carrying a small vegetable basket, looked around at the market stalls.

"Little friend, what kind of vegetables would you like to buy today?"

"Auntie, the eggplants here are very fresh!"

"Wow, kids these days are so capable."

Lili is not shy at all and can chat with anyone;

Brady observed along the way, comparing meat, vegetables, fruits, and seasonings one by one;

Little Thumbtack had no interest in buying groceries; his attention was entirely focused on the various pastry shops, sniffing deeply, "It smells so good..."

Wu Shuo walked quietly at the back, making sure no child was left behind, and especially keeping an eye on Wen Li.

The little girl was carrying her small flower basket, and there was so much to see!

Neatly stacked corn, freshly picked flowers, potatoes piled high...

The market is so much fun!

"Hey, what should we do?"

"I want scrambled eggs with tomatoes!"

"It's so ordinary..."

"But it's so delicious!"

"Then I want to eat it too."

After some discussion, the children decided on the first dish.

They arrived at the tomato stall, where basket after basket of round, plump tomatoes glistened brightly in the sunlight.

The owner was an elderly gentleman with gray hair. When he saw the children coming over, his eyes narrowed into slits with a smile: "Coming to buy groceries? What would you like to order?"

"tomato!"

"tomato!"

"That one's not bad either."

"That's chili pepper, right? Kids can't eat spicy food."

The boss held up five fingers to his ear: "If you all speak at once, I can't hear you. Otherwise, could the youngest child among you tell me, okay?"

The children looked at each other, and finally their eyes all fell on Wen Li.

The little one was startled, and instinctively gripped the handle of the shopping basket.

The shop owner bent down kindly: "What kind of little animal are you?"

"It's a fawn..."

"What does the little deer want to buy?"

"Buy, buy anime..."

He sternly reminded her, "It's called 'Tomato'!"

The little thumbtack retorted, "No, it's a tomato!"

Brady said, "These two are the same thing."

The little one looked a bit lost, but Wu Shuo comforted him, "You can call him whatever you want, and you can point it out to the boss."

The little dumpling nodded, stood on tiptoe, pointed at the bright red tomato that looked like a balloon, and said in a childish voice, "Boss, I want to buy this."

"You should eat this! It's good for your health! How many do you want to buy?"

This is an issue that wasn't discussed before.

Wen Li couldn't answer, so she turned her head and looked at the boys for help.
