Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show

Chapter 28.3: — Lottery

In this way, because today’s buns were sold out ahead of schedule, the father and daughter didn’t need to come out again to sell buns at night, so they had more time to buy fresh ingredients and make more buns.

And this time, in addition to making buns, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo also used some of the ingredients to cook a ‘one pot hodge-podge soup.’

… …

The next day, the two went out again before dawn and took up a spot at the front row of the temporary stalls area.

Different from the sales method in the previous two days, this time, Lin Cheng added another sign in front of their steamed bun stall: [Self-service. Pick up your own steamed buns and gnocchi soup, pay by scanning the QR code. Customers are requested to line up properly.]

The two stacked the eco-friendly food bags and lunch boxes on the left side of the table and lined up the steamed buns according to their different shapes and fillings, and the gnocchi soup at the end. The whole steamed bun stall was arranged in an orderly manner.

Except for some elderly people and children who needed Lin Cheng’s help to pack steamed buns and noodle soup, most of the other customers chose to buy their breakfast on their own.

Lin Cheng was responsible for maintaining order at the scene, while Lin Momo helped these people calculate prices and give change for those who paid cash.

As a result, not only was their workload reduced a lot, but the efficiency on site was also greatly improved.

And this sales method—which was different from other stalls and, thus, quite novel—also attracted more diners to their stall.

In just one morning, Lin Momo and her dad sold out all 12 large steamers of buns that they prepared yesterday.

With the addition of gnocchi soup in their menu, they also made more money.

… …

Lin Cheng and Lin Momo set up a stall for four days: they earned 143 yuan on the first day, 186 yuan on the second day, 345 yuan on the third day, and 328 yuan on the fourth day, adding up to a total of 1002 yuan.

This was 202 yuan more than the 800 yuan required by the program group. Their task for the week was successfully completed!

… …

On the last day of recording, when Lin Momo and Lin Cheng returned to their residence after selling the morning’s buns, the program team was already waiting in front of the small building.

Seeing the crew from the program group, Lin Momo instinctively became nervous—she was afraid that the show’s director would say that they were not allowed to sell anything other than steamed buns and then confiscate the money they earned from selling gnocchi soup. Or worse, fine them and take more of their money.

… …

Not only did Lin Momo think so, but Chen Yu and all the others who had been following the livestream thought so too!

After all, with the piss-poor nature of the program group, it was really possible they would do such an unreasonable thing.

However, what was surprising was that the program group did not do this.

Instead, seeing Lin Cheng bring Lin Momo back to the small building, the team director immediately showed a friendly smile on her face.

“Baby and Dad earned a total of 1002 yuan this time, right?”

“Yes,” Lin Momo nodded. She stepped forward and handed the envelope with money to the director with extreme caution and said, “We also saved 168 yuan from our living expenses. So there is a total of 1,170 yuan here.”

Lin Momo looked at the director and other show crew members nervously and asked, “Have we completed the task?”

The director smiled even more, nodded, and said, “Of course! Congratulations on completing the task for this week.”

The director’s hearty words seemed to inject Lin Momo with a dose of reassurance.

… …

But Chen Yu and the two assistants watching this in front of the company’s computers were surprised.

“Eh? The director didn’t make things difficult for our Brother Cheng?!” Wang Xi said in disbelief.

“Did the show crew change their personality? Why did they suddenly become kind?” Zhou Qi, sitting on the side, also chimed in.

Wang Xi bit her finger and whispered, “It shouldn’t be…”

According to the regulations of the program team, if any group could not complete the weekly task, it may be replaced by new families, and they would enter the suspended stage.

And the gossip she heard from other colleagues last week was that the company saw that the show was getting popular and they planned to replace Lin Cheng’s team and let another middle-aged actor—who had recently become popular—take Lin Cheng’s place.

Three people who still didn’t know the truth tried to speculate about the intentions of the program crew.

“Could it be that you paid money for the program team to treat Brother Cheng better?” Wang Xi looked at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was speechless. “How is it possible…”

If he had that money, he would rather use it to buy Lin Cheng a water army!

Chen Yu thought for a while and then said, “Maybe the program team saw the potential of Lin Cheng and Lin Momo.”

Although, even Chen Yu himself didn’t believe this.

… …

At the recording scene, Lin Momo didn’t overthink things as much as Chen Yu and the others did. Hearing the director’s announcement that they had completed the task, Lin Momo breathed a sigh of relief and made little jumps of joy.

At this time, she saw the staff on site pull out the familiar box again.

“What is this? I don’t need to introduce it anymore, right?” the director said with a smile.

“Draw lots!” Lin Momo answered.

“That’s right.” After a pause, the director said again, “Then we invite dad and baby to draw the life you will experience next week.”

“Okay!”

… …

In the Lin family living room.

Old Master Lin was staring at the livestream showing on screen.

Although the old man had said very magnanimously before that Lin Cheng should resign himself to his fate, in fact, he was still very nervous inside.

Watching Lin Cheng slowly pull out a card from the box, the expression on the old man’s face was as tight as Lin Momo’s showing on the livestream.

T/N: I got confused as to how the Lin steamed bun stall seemed to have so much space when it’s just a pedal-tricycle and googled for more photos. It seems you are only limited by what you can imagine ??
