In the garden.

It took the old man and the young man several hours to finally clean all the flowers, plants and bonsai in the garden.

As the sun rose, worried that his great-granddaughter would get tanned, Grandpa Lin took Lin Momo back into the house.

Arriving at his own study, Mr. Lin rummaged through the drawers and cabinets and finally found a box of very old items.

"This is our family tree. Our ancestors of the Lin family were originally from N City. Later, they went to X Country to do business. Then, when the motherland was in war..." Regardless of whether Lin Momo could understand so much at her age, Mr. Lin held the family tree and began to tell Lin Momo about the history of the Lin family.

One of them spoke carefully, and the other listened attentively. In the middle, when talking about a certain city, Master Lin would occasionally interrupt to tell Lin Momo what the Lin family had there now.

Mr. Lin said this and lowered his head to see Lin Momo looking at him with her mouth half open in surprise.

"What's wrong, Xiao Momo?"

"Our family seems to be quite rich." Lin Momo said in a low voice.

Lin Momo didn't have much idea about the big companies, small companies, factories, industrial parks, wineries and old houses mentioned by the old man, nor did she realize that she was actually a rich second-generation. But after hearing the other party talk about so many places, Lin Momo realized a fact: their family was quite rich.

Hearing Lin Momo's words, Mr. Lin laughed.

"Of course. Our Lin family has been industrialists since our great grandfather and great grandfather. Every generation is very capable." After a pause, Mr. Lin said, "As for your father, he is also quite capable."

After that, Mr. Lin took out several photo albums from his treasure box, pointed to a page of an old photo album and said to Lin Momo: "This is your great-grandfather, your grandfather, this is your great-grandfather, your grandmother, and this..."

Mr. Lin flipped through the photo album and introduced them to Lin Momo one by one, from old portraits, to previous photos, and then to newer photos.

"This is your grandmother, and the kid next to her is your father when he was very young." Mr. Lin pointed to a photo of Chen Shu and Lin Cheng and said to Lin Momo.

Looking at the people in the photo, Lin Momo felt a little strange: she didn’t see grandma in this house.

"Grandma is gone?" Lin Momo asked cautiously.

A hint of sadness flashed across Mr. Lin's eyes.

"Oh, my great grandfather didn't take good care of this family at that time, and your grandmother was bullied..." Mr. Lin said self-reproachfully.

Although she didn't know what happened, Lin Momo felt that Mr. Lin was very sad, so she reached out and held his hand.

"Grandma is so beautiful." Lin Momo said, pointing at Chen Shu in the photo.

After thinking for a while, Lin Momo said, "Grandma must be living a happy life in the other world."

The experience in the dream made Lin Momo consciously believe that there is another world.

Whether it was belief or comfort, Lin Momo's words made Mr. Lin feel a little warm in his heart.

Master Lin patted Lin Momo's head, nodded with a smile, and said, "Yes, you will be happy."

"Our little Momo is pretty too." Master Lin said with a smile again.

"Xiao Momo's eyes are most like your grandmother's."

After hearing what Grandpa Lin said, Lin Momo realized that she, Lin Cheng and her grandmother looked very similar, especially the eyes.

Mr. Lin continued to flip through the photos and introduced Lin Momo.

There weren't many photos taken later, most of them were taken when Lin Cheng was a child and Chen Shu took him to take some photos when he was still alive.

Among them, Lin Momo found the only photo with many people on it.

"Great Grandpa, who are these people?" Lin Momo pointed at the people in the photo that looked like a family portrait and asked Grandpa Lin.

Looking at the photo, Master Lin frowned and said, "These are some other things from the Lin family..."

Mr. Lin originally wanted to tell Lin Momo about these other members of the Lin family, but at this moment, Lin Cheng, who had walked to the door of the study, interrupted what the old man was about to say.

"Some unimportant people." Lin Cheng succinctly summarized the identities of the two families of Lin Zhenhong and Lin Zhenming.

After hearing Lin Cheng's words, Lin Momo nodded as if she understood, but did not ask any more questions.

"We are ready to leave." Lin Cheng looked at the time and spoke to the old man and the young boy.

Hearing this, both Lin Momo and Mr. Lin were stunned.

"Why are you leaving? You've only been here for a short time." Grandpa Lin said dissatisfiedly - although Lin Momo had been here for the whole morning, the grandpa still felt that he had not spent enough time with his great-granddaughter.

"We will start recording the program later, so we have to leave City C in the afternoon." Lin Cheng explained.

Master Lin had been playing with Lin Momo the whole morning. At this moment, the two of them were sitting on a chair. Lin Momo was sitting next to Master Lin, listening to him introduce the stories behind each photo. Her legs were dangling on the edge of the chair unconsciously. She looked relaxed and at ease, as if there was no barrier between her and Master Lin at all.

Otherwise, there would not be enough time, and Lin Cheng did not want to break such a harmonious and beautiful scene.

After hearing what Lin Cheng said, Master Lin said unwillingly: "Then wait until you have lunch before leaving."

Mainly, he was reluctant to see his precious great-granddaughter, whom he had finally seen, being taken away like that.

Lin Cheng didn't say anything, just looked at Master Lin helplessly.

In the end, Master Lin finally came out of the battle and waved his hands, saying, "Alright, alright, go ahead and leave me alone at home."

At worst, he could just sneak over to see their Momo.

Master Lin muttered something to himself, feeling secretly proud of himself when he thought that he already knew the place.

Lin Momo and Mr. Lin said goodbye reluctantly.

Even until Lin Cheng and Lin Momo were almost out of sight in the car, Master Lin still stood at the gate and watched for a long time.

"Master, lunch is ready." Butler Zhou reminded.

Master Lin nodded and walked back, saying, "Send someone to fix the swing in the courtyard a little later."

The height of the swing was originally set according to Lin Momo's body shape, but after four weeks, Lin Momo's body had grown a lot taller.

"Oh, by the way, let's find some people to redesign the backyard and raise some rabbits and other small animals."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Butler Zhou smiled and responded.

Here, after leaving the Lin family, Lin Momo sat in the car, hugged Master Lin and gave her a bunch of toys and snacks, but she looked very sad.

"Are you having so much fun that you don't want to leave?" Lin Cheng tapped Lin Momo's head and asked.

Lin Momo nodded and then shook her head: she was thinking about another question.

"Is the person in the photo before also a member of the Lin family?" Lin Momo asked the question that concerned her most along the way.

"Okay." Lin Cheng responded.

Lin Momo looked at Lin Cheng. Although the other party didn't say it, she could feel that Lin Cheng didn't like those people.

"If they are not nice to dad, then they are not family." Lin Momo looked at Lin Cheng and said word by word, with an expression that looked quite conscientious.

The scenes in that dream were too blurry. Most of the people who appeared in the dream were just blurry figures. Lin Momo couldn't see clearly and didn't recognize anyone.

But when she saw the other people in the photo, Lin Momo didn't feel good at all.

Lin Cheng was a little surprised by the words coming out of Lin Momo's mouth.

Originally, Lin Cheng was worrying about how to explain to Lin Momo the relationship between those people and her and why they did not show up at the Lin family.

On the one hand, Lin Momo is still too young, and Lin Cheng hopes to protect her and make the world clean and beautiful. On the other hand, Lin Cheng hopes that Lin Momo will have a clear judgment on right and wrong, and not naively think that people with blood ties will definitely be good to her.

Lin Cheng didn't expect that Lin Momo was quite clear-headed about this matter.

This might be related to Lin Momo's past experiences. Although she did not grow up, she had already learned to distinguish between good and bad and avoid harm out of self-protection.

"Anyway, I don't seem to like them very much..." Lin Momo muttered in a very low voice.

"What about great-grandfather? Do you like him?" Lin Cheng asked in a relaxed tone.

"I like it! I like it very much!" Lin Momo answered affirmatively.

Hearing this, the smile on Lin Cheng's face widened a little, and a joking light appeared on his face.

Lin Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who said that great grandfather is a stalker and a human trafficker?"

Lin Momo: “…” Let’s not talk about this, let’s still maintain friendly communication between father and daughter.

Having the embarrassing incident of "unbearable to look back on" exposed, Lin Momo looked away somewhat embarrassedly, turned her head to the car window, and pretended to be nothing, humming the theme song of "Living with Dad".

Lin Cheng left without taking Lin Momo with him immediately, but took her to visit Liu Cuifang again.

After a period of recuperation, Liu Cuifang's illnesses have improved a lot and she looks much more energetic than before.

Liu Cuifang was very happy to see Lin Momo and the others coming to visit her.

Lin Cheng and Lin Momo stayed at Liu Cuifang's house for lunch before packing their luggage and heading to the airport.

As the show "Living with Dad" became very popular, more and more people on the Internet knew about the father-daughter duo Lin Cheng and Lin Momo, and many of them became fans of this pair.

When Lin Cheng brought Lin Momo to the airport, many fans had already come to the airport lobby to see them off.

Chen Yu, Zhou Qi and Wang Xi took Lin Cheng and Lin Momo to the VIP waiting room of the airport.

Seeing Chen Yu and the others, Lin Momo greeted them happily, and shared with them the candies that Master Lin had given her at the Lin family.

"This one with watermelon flavor is especially delicious, and this one with pineapple flavor is also delicious. I like the pineapple flavor the best."

"Hey, this is the first time I've seen this candy." Wang Xi took the candy from Lin Momo, peeled one and threw it into his mouth. He was immediately amazed by the taste of the candy.

"It's really delicious!" Wang Xi said, and then asked Lin Momo: "Where can you buy this candy?"

"I don't know," Lin Momo said truthfully. After a pause, a smile appeared on her face again, and she said loudly, "This was given to me by my great grandfather."

When Lin Momo mentioned the word "great grandfather", the smile on her face showed that she liked this great grandfather very much, and at the same time, it could also be seen that the great grandfather she was talking about should also like her very much.

"Sister Wang Xi, if you like talking, these are for you too." Lin Momo took out another big bag from her stock and gave it to Wang Xi.

"Thanks."

Chen Yu and Zhou Qi standing by actually wanted it too, but were too embarrassed to ask for it.

Chen Yu coughed lightly and looked at Lin Cheng.

"Brother Cheng, I came here today to talk to you about a few things."

"First of all, let's talk about this." Chen Yu handed a thick book of unknown information to Lin Cheng and explained, "I have specially asked someone to prepare a script. It mainly focuses on running a farm. You and Momo can take a look at it."

Although "Living with Dad" is a reality show, the other groups will specially prepare corresponding scripts after they are sure to draw the family background of the first episode, so as to attract fans.

Among the five families, probably only the group of Lin Cheng and Lin Momo was the one who honestly tried to survive in the summary program.

As an agent, Chen Yu felt extremely guilty about this.

But I can't blame him, mainly because the family backgrounds that Lin Cheng and Lin Momo were drawn were really... not much room for them to play.

The father and daughter finally got their chance to "feel proud", so Chen Yu naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity to make Lin Cheng more popular.

Looking at the script as thick as a textbook in front of him, Lin Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly. He was not optimistic about this so-called good script.

Under Chen Yu's expectant gaze, Lin Cheng casually flipped through the script.

— The script has already written in what Lin Cheng and Lin Momo will do, say, and how to run the farm after they arrive. It also lists many intentionally designed "accidental" plots, such as: being almost bitten by a rabbit, being drooled by an alpaca, being "hunted" by a big white goose, and performing on the street to attract business for their own farm...

These special plots are also marked with special annotations, such as "to attract fans", "to create hot topics", "to deepen the impact on the audience", "to enrich the characters", etc.

From the perspective of making a program, this script may be very professional, but in Lin Cheng's eyes, the evaluation of this script can be summed up in four words: superficial.

It's not even as good as Lin Momo's own "How to Get Rich".

In order to save some face for his assistant, Lin Cheng did not show the disdain in his eyes too obviously.

"Is there anything else?" Putting the 'script' aside, Lin Cheng asked again.

"That's all I have." Chen Yu said, handing several other documents to Lin Cheng, and said, "Here are some letters of intent for cooperation in variety shows, some interview notices, and endorsements. I have selected a few good ones. Brother Cheng, you can take a look."

"Most of these endorsements are for interest development, snacks, and daily necessities. Among them, this McLean Goanehd candy series is considered an endorsement for a big brand. I think it's pretty good. And this..."

Chen Yu's tone was full of excitement, but when he thought that Lin Cheng seemed to be a wealthy boss, he calmed down and said, "If you find these endorsements inconvenient, Brother Cheng, I will turn them down."

"Oh, and here are some more. There are invitations to variety shows. There is an opportunity for a guest guest on "My Family's Living Expenses" this weekend. The main guest of "Entertainment News" this week is going to be Bai Yulin. The supporting guest program team intends to invite several other families from "Living with Dad", as well as "Song Craftsman"..."

Chen Yu handed Lin Cheng several variety show invitations, and finally took out the last letter of intent with a very solemn expression.

"And this! 'Entertainment Conference'! The production team plans to invite you to be the main guest at the first half of their 345th alternative program!" Speaking of this, Chen Yu also looked incredulous.

"Entertainment Conference" is the flagship variety show of Blue Channel and one of the best variety shows in the entertainment industry. There are countless artists and stars who want to squeeze into this variety show. Under normal circumstances, even if you are a very popular and high-traffic star, you may not be invited to be the main guest. He didn't expect that the program team would actually invite Lin Cheng to be the main guest.

Although it is only the alternative program that is being recorded, if any problems arise during the recording of the main program of 345 or it fails to pass the review, the program team will replace it with the alternative program. At that time, Lin Cheng will be the main guest of an official program.

Chen Yu couldn't even dream of such a good thing.

Seeing the invitation letter in front of him, Lin Cheng's gaze deepened a little, but he was not as excited as Chen Yu.

"When will the recording start?" Lin Cheng asked.

"Tentatively scheduled for the weekend after a week." Chen Yu replied.

"How do you get it?" Lin Cheng asked again. With his current status, it is impossible for him to get such resources.

Speaking of this, Chen Yu's expression suddenly became excited, and he said, "This matter is all thanks to President Sun! Originally, the theme of that episode of Blue Channel's main selection program was 'Best Actor vs Best Television Actor', and our company's Le Bai and several other best actors were invited. When it came to the selection of alternative programs, Le Bai recommended his junior Sun Yimeng to the program team. Later, I don't know what other announcements Sun Yimeng had or why he couldn't participate in the recording, so President Sun strongly recommended you to the company and Blue Channel."

The Mr. Sun mentioned by Chen Yu is Lin Cheng’s former agent: Sun Yanzhou.

After listening to Chen Yu's narration and looking at the invitation letter, a sneer flashed in Lin Cheng's eyes.

Then, Lin Cheng looked at Chen Yu again - although this agent had not achieved much in the company over the years and it was partly his fault, Chen Yu himself was not without responsibility.

Feeling that Lin Cheng's expression was very different from what he had imagined, Chen Yu became nervous and asked, "Brother Cheng, you are not going to accept this program, right?!"

"Answer it." Lin Cheng gave a one-word answer.

Hearing this, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I was worried that you didn't want to answer it..."

Chen Yu looked at Lin Cheng. There was a half-smile on Lin Cheng's face, and it seemed that there was a hint of coldness. This expression made Chen Yu a little confused, but he didn't know if it was an illusion. He always felt that there was a hint of affection in Lin Cheng's eyes when he looked at him

"Then are you still considering the other ones, Brother Cheng?" The others invited Lin Cheng only to be a warm-up guest, which was far inferior to the invitation from "Entertainment Conference".

Lin Cheng read through all the notices, excluded a few that Lin Momo would be participating in after school started, as well as variety shows and commercials that required Lin Momo to cooperate in recording as required, and finally handed the remaining notices to Chen Yu.

"You can handle the rest yourself. Keep two or three and turn down the rest."

"Okay." It's better than not going to any variety show and continuing to be an obscure person.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen Yu and others stood up to see Lin Cheng and Lin Momo off.

"Goodbye, Uncle Chen Yu, Brother Zhou Qi, and Sister Wang Xi." Lin Momo greeted everyone one by one, and finally followed Lin Cheng into the security check.

Seeing the girl's jumping back, Wang Xi and Zhou Qi's faces were filled with surprise and admiration.

-Although they had been following the live broadcast before, they had never met in person. When they saw Lin Momo again this time, they both felt the huge changes that had taken place in Lin Momo.

When Lin Momo was first brought in by them, she was sensible and well-behaved but seemed cautious and even a little unconfident. Now, although Lin Momo is still very well-behaved, she is obviously much more lively than before, and this liveliness and confidence comes from the inside out.

"I didn't expect..." A child actually grew so big in just two weeks.

Wang Xi said with emotion.

Chen Yu, who was standing by, also echoed: "I didn't expect that..."

Wang Xi and Zhou Qi were both surprised at Lin Momo's change, but he was surprised at Lin Cheng's change.
