Chapter 27,Part 2: — Vote - Family Background

On the other side, Lin Momo had no idea that Old Master Lin was silently working hard to vote for them.

At this time, she was sitting on the stairs of the small building, staring in the direction of the door without blinking.

She was waiting for Lin Cheng to come back.

Just when Lin Momo was about to fall asleep, the barely heard sound of squeaking tires woke her up.

Lin Momo’s eyes lit up. She jumped up from the small bench and ran towards the gate.

Sure enough, just a short distance away, Lin Momo saw Lin Cheng returning on their tricycle.

“Dad!”

Seeing the little girl running in front of him, a smile flashed in Lin Cheng’s eyes, but he soon frowned.

Lin Cheng got off the tricycle, looked at Lin Momo and asked, “What did I say before I went out?”

Lin Momo stopped, stunned by this question, and then replied with a guilty conscience, “Stay at home, listen to the landlady, and don’t run around outside…”

Lin Momo raised her head and retorted, “I didn’t run around though. I only ran out when I heard you come back to… to pick you up!”

Lin Cheng was deeply suspicious of Lin Momo’s reason.

But Lin Momo resolutely emphasized, “Really!”

She really did hear the sound of their tricycle.

After looking at the girl for a few seconds, Lin Cheng could only admit defeat.

“Let’s go back.”

“Okay.” Lin Momo followed Lin Cheng obediently into the building.

At this time, Lin Cheng said again, “It’s not safe outside. Don’t run around when you are alone.”

Judging from the performance of the program team, Lin Cheng did not trust them one bit.

Hearing this, Lin Momo nodded seriously, deeply convinced of her dad’s words.

“Dad.”

“Hm?”

“I almost met a child trafficker today.”

Lin Cheng’s expression tightened, and he asked in a deep voice, “When did it happen?”

“While I was waiting for you…” Lin Momo had a brush with a child trafficker that night. She explained the whole matter to Lin Cheng as far as she understood the situation.

“Then?”

“Then I gave all the money I picked up to the policeman at the entrance of the alley.” Lin Momo blinked and looked up at Lin Cheng, “Am I very smart?”

In her mind, Lin Momo was still thinking about the incident this morning when Lin Cheng said she was a little silly.

Meeting the little girl’s ‘begging for praise’ gaze, Lin Cheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but did not give her the answer she wanted.

Instead, he raised his eyebrows and asked, “So do you dare to run around next time?”

Lin Momo shook her head.

“Oh, that’s right!” Thinking of something, Lin Momo suddenly took out something from her pocket and handed it to Lin Cheng. “This is for you!” she said with a smile.

Lin Cheng took what Lin Momo handed to him.

It was a gold coin chocolate.

“The landlady gave it to you?”

“No,” Lin Momo shook her head.

She bought it with her own money.

At the small store at the entrance of the alley, Lin Momo bought this piece of chocolate for two yuan.

The money came from the 11 yuan she lost and recovered. It was to thank Lin Cheng for helping her get the money back.

Lin Cheng quickly found the ‘point’ from Lin Momo’s explanation.

“Didn’t you say you didn’t run around?”

Lin Momo: “…”

Lin Cheng was secretly amused when he saw Lin Momo running back to the small building with a guilty conscience.

He looked at the ‘gold coin’ in his hand again—although he could smell the inferior flavor of this chocolate even through a layer of gold foil, Lin Cheng still put the gold coin properly into his pocket.

… …

The two returned to the house.

The first thing was to take stock of their income today.

Although the steamed buns in the evening were not easy to sell, because the price was 50 cents cheaper than in the morning, Lin Cheng still sold out the remaining steamed buns and made 65 yuan.

Including the earnings during the day and those made at night, they earned a total of 143 yuan today.

Lin Momo counted the money with a look of joy on her face.

However, the smile on Lin Momo’s face soon fell.

Their family owed 800 yuan this week, and they only have 4 days to sell steamed buns. If the income was the same every day, they would not be able to complete the task!

“Our buns are still too ugly…” Lin Momo whispered with a sad look on her face.

Otherwise, if they could sell all six steamers of buns in the morning, they wouldn’t need to wait until the evening to sell them for a cheaper price.

That way, they could earn more money in a day.

Seeing the girl’s disappointed look, Lin Cheng said something against his usual reticence, “It’s not too ugly.”

… …

Dad and baby finished counting their earnings, and the two began to prepare the buns for tomorrow.

In order to ensure the output, the two still made buns in the same way as yesterday.

Lin Cheng was in charge of wrapping out the basic shape of the buns, while Lin Momo was picking out the little spikes that differentiated the flavors.

Although Lin Momo has tried very hard to pinch the dough in such a way as to make the little marks look better, she still felt it looked ugly.

.

Staring at the bun in front of her with distaste, Lin Momo suddenly had an idea and fiddled with the bun again.

“Dad, look at this.” Lin Momo lifted her hand and showed the bun sitting in her palm to Lin Cheng.

Originally there were only 6 spikes to a bun at most, but now Lin Momo pinched out more than 20 small spikes.

Lin Cheng: “…”

“What have you done to that bun?” Lin Cheng really thought that Lin Momo was taking revenge on these ‘ugly buns’.

But Lin Momo pouted, “This is a little hedgehog.”

Lin Momo came closer, taking the little hedgehog bun with her, and carefully showed it off to Lin Cheng.

Only then did Lin Cheng notice that the small spikes on the bun were all along one side, while Lin Momo made a separate line of spikes on the other side, and made two vivid eyes using red beans.

Looking at it this way, it was indeed a little hedgehog.

“Very cute,” Lin Cheng commented.

Hearing this, Lin Momo giggled, “Hehe, I think it’s cute too.”

“Can we make all our buns look like small animals? That way others won’t think they are ugly,” Lin Momo Mo expressed her thoughts.

Sometimes, children’s whims were not necessarily useless.

After Lin Cheng thought about it for a few seconds, he nodded, “You can try it.”

“Okay!”

For the next round, Lin Cheng continued to make the prototypes of steamed buns, while Lin Momo was responsible for shaping them into various animal shapes.

The ones stuffed with bean paste were little hedgehogs, the ones stuffed with peanut sauce were piglets, the ones stuffed with white sugar were little snails, the ones stuffed with cabbage were owls…

Although Lin Momo didn’t pinch them all that well, they were still very cute.

Seeing buns in the shape of small animals appearing on the chopping board, there were more and more comments in the livestream channel:

[Wow, so cute!]

[My daughter is so smart!]

[It’s over, it’s over, I want to buy it even more when I look at it this way.]

[Cute, I want to buy it.]

[Me too, if I was also in City C, I would definitely rush over and buy it! ]

[I want the same style.]

[Asking for the full set! ]

… …

Lin family.

Old Master Lin, who had been watching the livestream throughout, now looked at the steamed buns that appeared on screen. Although he didn’t say anything, there was an expression in his eyes of ‘wanting the same style, asking for the full set’.

Butler Zhou at the side silently remembered the old man’s expression in his heart.

At this moment, Assistant Zhou Ming knocked on the door outside the house.

“Old Master, the people from the [Living with Dad] program team just sent over a piece of information.”

“What?”

“Possible [Family Background]s for the next episode of the program.”

T/N: I don’t know if they are related but Zhou Xing is the butler and Zhou Ming is the ‘young’ assistant. It’s probably why Zhou Ming is ‘Xiao Zhou’. It’s not a stretch for fathers and sons to serve the same family.

BTW, I belatedly added a translation note in the previous chapter—just in case you read it yesterday and didn’t see it.
