All the families stood together sparsely, and everyone was doubting their lives. Only a few children puffed out their chests with pride, staring at the director with shining eyes, waiting for him to give out their rewards. Little Xuebao stood proudly in front of her own water bucket, muttering, "Steamed fish, braised fish, I want to eat sweet and sour fish." The sound of her slurping saliva made Ji Qiuxue look sideways.
"Carp has a lot of bones and is not suitable for you to eat." Rong Yuqiu also heard it. She squatted down, took Xiao Xuebao's hand and explained to her. Little Xuebao was shocked. She almost shed suspicious tears from her slightly opened mouth. She tilted her head and looked at Rong Yuqiu in confusion, "Aren't they all fish?"
"They are all fish, but some fish are afraid of being eaten, so they have many bones. Some fish are not afraid, so they have fewer bones." Rong Yuqiu explained to her while stroking little Xuebao's soft curly hair. "Well...are there any fish to eat?"Â Xiao Xuebao came to the bucket and looked at the fish huddled together.
"I'll go ask the director uncle later to see if we can get some boneless fish. If so, we'll eat fish. If not, we'll eat other delicious food." "Okay then." Little Xuebao reluctantly moved away from the fish, turned around and lay in Rong Yuqiu's arms. Ji Qiuxue looked down at the two heads, one big and one small, with gentle eyes. She controlled the expression on her face, only faintly revealing a feeling of happiness.
The host Liang Chun came again. He greeted everyone with a smile, "Hello, dear guests, let me see if the fish you have caught are enough to exchange for two sumptuous meals." Liang Chun walked over to Xiang Qing. Xiang Qing held his son's hand awkwardly. The little cool guy suffered the first Waterloo in his life and did not catch any fish.
"Teacher Xiang's group doesn't have a single fish." Liang Chun saw that the child was about to cry, and was too embarrassed to ask more questions. He could only comfort and encourage him. Zhong Xiu's son Zhong Da is very happy. He's a little sweetheart and caught three fish by himself.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhong and his family, you caught seven fish." Unlike Xiang Qing who's still comforting his son, Zhong Da happily hugged his father's legs and walked around in circles, looking extremely happy.
"Teacher Fu's family caught five fish." When Fu Rou's daughter heard someone counting, she blushed and stuck her head out of her mother's arms, took a quick look and then retracted it, looking like a little socially anxious person.
"Teacher Bai's family caught fifteen fish." Liang Chun looked at the densely packed fish crammed in a bucket, then looked at Bai zhizhi who's looking up waiting for praise, and probably realized that all the fish today were caught by her. Du Shan was still sitting on the stool with a pale face. She looked at her proud daughter and feel proud of her, but when she thought about how she caught the fish, she wanted to faint.
Bai Duo looked at her daughter with pride and looked at her lover with worry. She felt so difficult being caught in the middle. She also didn't expect that Zhizhi could just dig in the ground and dig out a lot of wriggling earthworms. She even smiled and used the earthworms to fish, having a lot of fun all by herself. Then the fishing results were amazing. Her wife had a pale face as if she's doubting her life, and Bai Duo didn't dare to look at her. She always boasted that her daughter take after her the most, but this is too similar. Bai Duo's ears turned red and she didn't dare to look her wife in the eye.
Finally it's Xiao Xuebao's turn, "Teacher Ji's family got nine fish." After Liang Chun lost the fish, he directly announced that Bai Zhizhi is the first, followed by Xiao Xuebao, and then Zhong da and Fu Rou's family. When the rewards were announced, little cool guy who didn't catch any fish burst into tears. Honglan gently comforted him, "It's okay, we will keep working hard next time, and we will always be able to catch something." Xiao Kuge nodded and buried himself in his mother's arms. He didn't want to be a cool guy today.
Rong Yuqiu, who had been flying all the way, looked at the rewards and said with emotion: "I'm also eating "soft rice" today." Ji Qiuxue glanced at her silently. She thought of the old Rong Yuqiu, who always lamented in front of her that she's an alpha who live off her. As a result, she secretly saved several million without telling her, and all the cards are now in Ji Qiuxue's wallet.
All the money used to give birth to Xiao Xuebao was deducted from that card, and half of the money Xiao Xuebao needed was also deducted from that card. Ji Qiuxue once thought that maybe when the money in the card was used up, she would let it go. But every time she wanted to let go, her heart would break into pieces when she looked at her daughter who had the same eyes as Rong Yuqiu.
Rong Yuqiu communicated with Xiao Xuebao and decided to prepare delicious food for Ji Qiuxue in the evening so that her mother could eat her fill. "Teacher Ji, can you eat spicy food?" Rong Yuqiu looked at Ji Qiuxue who had been looking at her. Her gentle and affectionate eyes made her subconsciously think that she's the person in her dream.
Rong Yuqiu's calm heart was disturbed by the soft eyes like water waves. She even lowered her head in panic, not daring to look at Ji Qiuxue, for fear that others would see the panic in her eyes. Ji Qiuxue saw a hint of daze and memories in Rong Yuqiu's eyes, and then Rong Yuqiu lowered her head, trying to hide her emotions. Ji Qiuxue felt stunned. Did she remember something?
The family of three walked home holding the sumptuous meal, while the others also dispersed, wanting only to go back and rest. Only the Baiduo family could not avoid feeling bitter. That broken earthen kiln was simply not suitable for sleeping. She is now discussing with the program crew whether they can move to a normal place to live. Both of them had complicated thoughts, only the two children were happily running in the wind in front.
Rong Yuqiu and Ji Qiuxue were both distracted. One of them kept telling herself in her heart that she couldn't let Ji Qiuxue be a substitute, as it's not good. The other one is thinking about how likely it is that Rong Yuqiu would recover her memory and whether she could do anything. At night, Rong Yuqiu used the reward they got to cook three dishes and a soup. The remaining vegetables at home disappeared and the vegetable patch was fenced off.
Rong Yuqiu looked at the green vegetable patch with regret. From now on, she would have to rely on the program crew for food. It's really uncomfortable to be controlled by others. Ji Qiuxue smelled the delicious food on the table and took the lead in picking up a piece of food for the two children. "Today, it's thanks to our little Xuebao that we can eat such delicious food."
When Xiao Xuebao heard her mother praising her, she raised her chin proudly and felt very happy. Then Ji Qiuxue said, "We can eat such delicious food thanks to Miss Rong." Rong Yuqiu and Xiao Xuebao waved their hands modestly in the same way. Rong Yuqiu was able to suppress her happiness, while Xiao Xuebao waved her hands proudly and modestly, saying, "Mommy, I will fish for you every day in the future. Let mom cook for you."
She presented Rong Yuqiu's flowers to Ji Qiuxue's Buddha. Ji Qiuxue pretended that she didn't understand and nodded in agreement with Xiao Xuebao's words. The family of three had their meal and today's shoot was over. The cameras were removed, and Rong Yuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, looking much more relaxed.
At night, Xiao Xuebao went to take a bath, and Rong Yuqiu sat in the yard to watch the stars. The air in the mountains is good, and there were no bright lights like in the city, so it was easier to see the stars. The sweetly washed Xiao Xuebao, wearing pajamas that looked like custard buns, was held obediently by her mother, with her little yellow duck in her hands.
The little yellow duck made a quacking sound when it exerted force. When Rong Yuqiu heard the sound, she saw Ji Qiuxue coming out holding the child. Her movements were skillful and methodical. Little Xuebao sat on the stool and waved to Rong Yuqiu. Rong Yuqiu stood up and walked over. Xiao Xuebao grabbed Rong Yuqiu's hand and asked, "Mom, can you help me blow my hair?"
Rong Yuqiu nodded and said, "I'll blow her hair. Teacher Ji, go wash up first." "Okay, then I'll leave it to you. You have to be good." Ji Qiuxue tapped Xiao Xuebao's snow-white nose and raised her hand to hand the hair dryer to Rong Yuqiu.
They both reached out at the same time, and Rong Yuqiu's hand just happened to hold Ji Qiuxue's fingertips. They both froze at the same time, and then silently let go of their hands at the same time, without any abnormality. Outside the yard, there were more than a dozen staff members guarding it. They were eating and chatting, and occasionally paying attention to what was happening in the house.
There are also two cameras in the room for filming the guests' daily lives and protecting their safety. The staff finally brought the small bed for Rong Yuqiu to sleep in. "Teacher Rong, we'll put this bed for you in the living room. You can sleep on it directly later." "Okay, thank you." While blowing Xiao Xuebao's hair, she looked at the small single bed with satisfaction.
Ji Qiuxue stood in the bathroom, hot water rushing down from her head. The bathroom was misty. She closed her eyes and thought about Rong Yuqiu. She thought about the little things that Rong Yuqiu and Xiao Xuebao had done together, and how Rong Yuqiu is always restrained and polite towards her. This sense of disparity made Ji Qiuxue feel a little bitter.
How come she remember everyone but me? Ji Qiuxue burst into tears, and her tears were washed away along with the hot water.
