"Wow, look at that monkey swinging from the tree, its arms are so long," Wu Yueyuan exclaimed, covering her mouth. "It's moving so fast, Mom, that's amazing."
"There are monkeys here too, Yuanyuan, look, they're eating," Ye Nan said with some envy, seeing people feeding the monkeys with sliced carrots.
Wen Yan'an noticed this and ran to Fang Miaomiao. "Mom, can we buy some food to feed these animals?"
"Of course," Fang Miaomiao said, putting down her backpack.
Opening it, everyone discovered that the backpack was full of bags containing various carrot sticks, carrot slices, peanuts, and even vegetables.
"Miaomiao, when did you prepare all this?"
"During dinner, I went to the kitchen for a bit, and then I just took some along..."
The rest was implied.
"Miaomiao, you're so smart. It's really impressive that the director didn't notice."
"Yeah, Miaomiao, you're amazing. None of us thought of these things," Zhou Jiaxin also peeked into Fang Miaomiao's backpack. "I was wondering why you were carrying a bag."
"I suddenly thought that children might want to feed the animals when they see them, so I brought some along. I didn't expect them to be so useful."
"Here, you kids can share," Fang Miaomiao handed Wen Yan'an a bag of peanuts. "But be careful, don't fight with the monkeys. Protect yourselves and don't get hurt, okay?"
"Okay," Wen Yan'an took the bag of peanuts with delight. "Thank you, Mom. You're amazing."
"Go play," Fang Miaomiao zipped up her backpack and waved.
"I'll go watch them."
Chen Huan said and followed Wen Yan'an. The remaining three adults uniformly sat on chairs, slacking off.
"The weather is so nice today," Zhou Jiaxin said, adjusting her sunglasses. "Cloudy, with a breeze, it's so comfortable."
"Yes."
"Miaomiao, how can your An'an be so obedient?" Cui Mantong watched Wen Yan'an run over to share the peanuts with the others, constantly saying something. "He's so cute."
"If Sisi heard you say that, she'd be so jealous," Fang Miaomiao said with a wry smile. "Children are like this when they're familiar with people."
"Yeah, you don't know, my Yuanyuan at home is like a hyperactive husky, so energetic. Our nanny can't handle her. And the key thing is, she doesn't get tired after playing all day."
"That's good. Cui Yongsi at home seems like he won't move for half a day. He can stay in his room for an entire day, and I don't know how he does it," Cui Mantong said in distress.
She herself couldn't sit still, yet she gave birth to a child who was as silent as his father. What's more, she could never refute him.
"Mainly, there are few children near our house. Yuanyuan has no playmates when she's home on vacation," Zhou Jiaxin didn't know whether to laugh or not. "So she just works our nanny hard."
"Ah, it's like that for everyone," Cui Mantong spread her hands. "That's why I agreed to Director Tianming's suggestion. I thought if we came out to play with the children, maybe Sisi's personality would change a little after making friends."
Zhou Jiaxin chuckled, "Don't worry, Mantong. Under Yuanyuan's influence, Sisi might change too."
"That's true. After these few episodes, Sisi actually talks a lot more at home now."
"Oh, right, Miaomiao, why did you bring An'an on the show?"
"Yes, yes, I'm really curious too," Zhou Jiaxin said.
Fang Miaomiao, she had heard about. She had been a rich young lady for over twenty years, and after being accused of impersonating someone and kicked out, she had married into the Wen family, a life of great fortune.
However, it was said that she was very difficult and annoying. If not for the previous live stream, Fang Miaomiao would have gained even more haters.
When the show first started, she was worried about how she would get along with the child. But for her own Yuanyuan's sake, and with a little selfish motive of trying to connect with the Wen family, she had gritted her teeth and joined the show.
But after these two episodes, she felt that Fang Miaomiao was not as people described. Although she was a bit scattered and gave off a lazy, casual vibe, overall, she was easy to get along with and comfortable to be around.
"The company booked it for me," Fang Miaomiao said, shrugging. She couldn't find any reason in the original host's memories for taking on this variety show.
By the time she arrived, the show had already been arranged, and there were breach of contract penalties. At that time, she wasn't very familiar with Wen Zhiyan and didn't have much money, so she couldn't afford the penalty.
In the end, she had no choice but to join the show.
After all, slacking off was slacking off, no matter where it was.
"That's it?"
"Ah, what else?"
Cui Mantong and Zhou Jiaxin exchanged glances. Finally, Cui Mantong gritted her teeth and said, "There's something I've always wanted to ask you, but I've been afraid to."
Hearing this, Fang Miaomiao became even more confused. "If you have a question, just ask. Mantong, Senior Zhou, what are you two doing?"
"Well, didn't we film that pre-show video?" Cui Mantong asked. "Do you remember?"
"I have an impression."
That was apparently the first night she had transmigrated.
"At that time, there was a video saying you abused your stepson," Cui Mantong said, rubbing her nose, too guilty to meet Fang Miaomiao's gaze.
"So you just wanted to ask about this?" Fang Miaomiao looked at their evasive glances and didn't know what to say.
"Miaomiao, you don't know, but you did a live stream that day to clarify things, didn't you?"
"Mhm."
"But some people still don't believe you," Cui Mantong whined, clinging to Fang Miaomiao's arm. "They say you were faking it. You never responded to the accusation of abusing your stepson, and I couldn't stand it. I just couldn't stand them saying that about you. I just wanted you to prove yourself."
[Wow, big gossip is coming, big gossip is coming. After these few episodes, although I don't think Fang Miaomiao is that kind of person, I still want to hear an explanation.]
[Me too. Thinking about the well-behaved An'an being left out in the hot sun makes me so angry and powerless.]
[Give it a rest. Fang Miaomiao isn't unwilling to explain, she's just afraid to. She's guilty. Only those of you with blind eyes would like such a vicious woman. In the past, she would have been drowned in a pig cage.]
[Fang Miaomiao is just trash. The abuse of her stepson can't be washed away. They even say Fang Miaomiao has connections. Look, aren't we still jumping? Is anyone going to ban us? It's all for show. A bunch of idiots actually believed it.]
