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

Chapter 90: Just like a dream

Views:

Maybe when the camera switches in a while, Lin Momo will have already arrived at the scrap yard.

It's also possible that a 'kind passing car' would come and take Lin Momo there.

Watching the discussion among the audience in the live broadcast room, the people from the program crew were complaining: Lin Cheng's group didn't even have a complete script, so where did the designed waste buying segment come from

They are not responsible for this!

They also don’t have the budget to arrange a vehicle to take Lin Momo to the scrap yard!

Here, Lin Momo had already dragged a cart of waste onto the main road. The cameraman from the director's crew followed Lin Momo from a distance, without attracting the attention of passers-by.

The small figure was dragging a large cart of waste walking on the road in broad daylight, making him particularly conspicuous.

Lin Momo was already used to the surprised looks from passers-by, so she didn't care.

Lin Momo arrived in front of the station and stared at the station sign for a long time.

The nearest large recycling station is on Fengtan Road. There is no direct bus from here, but Mrs. Zhang told her the route to get there in the morning.

At this time, the "Rui Xin Street" on the license plate of bus No. 37 is a place that Lin Momo will pass by, 5 stops away from here.

Lin Momo stopped in front of the platform.

A few minutes later, bus No. 37 arrived at the station.

Just when many viewers in the live broadcast room thought that Lin Momo would get on the No. 37 bus arranged by the program team, they saw that Lin Momo did not move and was still standing at the bus stop.

"Do you want to get on the bus?" The bus driver shouted to Lin Momo at the bus stop through the front door.

Lin Momo shook her head.

The bus door closed, Lin Momo kept staring at the bus as it drove away, and then took note of the direction the bus drove.

Lin Momo started walking along the roadside in the direction of the bus.

When she arrived at the next station, Lin Momo looked at the station sign again to make sure she was not going the wrong way.

If she encountered a fork in the road and didn't know which way to go, Lin Momo would wait there and watch for another No. 37 bus to pass by.

After an hour and a half of going back and forth like this, Lin Momo finally arrived at her first destination: Ruixin Street.

On the bus stop sign, Lin Momo quickly found her destination, 'Fengtan Road', on another bus stop sign.

Lin Momo used the same method as before and started walking towards Fengtan Road following the direction of bus No. 101.

Although this method is stupid and slow, it is effective and can ensure that she will not go wrong.

In the live broadcast room, it was rare to see the screen filled with barrages of comments.

Oh my god! Lin Momo is actually walking all the time!

Do we really have to go to the scrap yard?!

During this period of time, most of the viewers did not leave the live broadcast room, so they watched Lin Momo walk for nearly three hours.

They are not blind and are very sure that there is no falsification, black screen or editing in the process.

It's unbelievable that such a young child walked for three hours.

The program crew is really going too far. Even for the sake of the show’s effects, they shouldn’t let a child go so far.

Why does it feel like the other groups are living the lives of celebrities, while the Lin Cheng family is just living the lives of mortals

I even suspect that Lin Cheng's group has offended the program crew, otherwise why would they be so miserable, living in the worst house, doing the hardest work, and having their babies to work with them.

Lin Momo didn’t know about the discussion in the live broadcast room.

At this time, towing the trailer behind her, Lin Momo was memorizing the route while thinking in her mind that after the filming was over and she got the 20,000 yuan, her family would also buy a trailer like this.

Another hour passed, and Lin Momo finally found the sign of Fengtan Lane not far from the bus station on Fengtan Road.

It was noon and there were not many people around the alley.

In front of a small pond, five or six old men and women were "washing" the cardboard boxes in their hands.

Seeing them, Lin Momo knew she had found the right place.

The other people noticed Lin Momo and saw the waste on the trailer behind her, and their eyes lit up.

"Kid, do you still want those things? Don't give them to me, I'll help you throw them away." One of them said to Lin Momo.

Seeing Lin Momo shaking her head, the man quickly said, "I won't take advantage of you. I'll give you 5 yuan. Give me your things."

Hearing this, Lin Momo shook her head firmly again, pulled her things and ran into the alley without looking back, muttering, "I'm not stupid."

When she reached the end of the road, Lin Momo saw the scrap yard that Old Lady Zhang had mentioned.

Seeing the boss sitting at the door, Lin Momo towed the trailer in front of him.

When the boss saw the little kid dragging a cart full of waste to buy, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Are you here to sell scrap?" asked the boss.

Lin Momo nodded.

Seeing this, the boss pointed to the scale next to him and said to Lin Momo, "Take your things down and put them there so I can weigh them for you."

Lin Momo didn't move, but asked the boss: "What's the price here?"

The boss rolled his eyes and casually quoted the price: "One dollar for paperboard, and one dollar and fifty cents for bottles and cans."

Hearing this, Lin Momo frowned: "Your price is too low, I won't sell it to you."

After saying that, Lin Momo looked like she was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." The boss stopped Lin Momo and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? You'll have to sell all this stuff if you drag it somewhere else. Why don't you just sell it here? I can negotiate the price."

"Tell me, how much do you want to sell it for?" the boss asked Lin Momo again.

"Cardboard is 1.2 yuan per pound, cans are 2 yuan per pound, transparent bottles are 1.8 yuan per pound, and colored bottles are 1.5 yuan per pound." Lin Momo quoted the price.

Hearing this, the boss showed some surprise on his face.

—Originally, he thought that this kid was probably helping his family sell scraps and didn't know anything. Unexpectedly, he was actually an "expert" and the price he quoted was basically the highest price in this business.

The boss seemed to want to lower the price, and at this time, the boss's wife came out.

"The liquid gas is running low. Where's the gas you ordered?" asked the proprietress.

"I just made a phone call, it will be here soon," said the boss.

The proprietress didn't say anything, but asked again: "What's going on here? Why does it take so long to weigh?"

"I haven't weighed them yet," the boss pointed at Lin Momo and said, "This kid's stuff, paperboard is 1.2 yuan, cans are 2 yuan, bottles are 1.8 yuan and 1.5 yuan."

After hearing what the boss said, the boss's wife looked at Lin Momo and showed the same expression as the boss. However, she did not hesitate and said, "Then let's buy it at this price. We won't lose money."

"Okay." The boss agreed, and then said to Lin Momo: "For the price you mentioned, bring the item over to weigh."

"Okay." Lin Momo quickly worked with the boss to take the waste off the cart.

Lin Momo pointed at several bundles and said to the boss one by one: "This is the cans, this is the colored bottles, this is the transparent bottles, the water inside is all clear, the bottle caps are here separately. And this pile is dry cardboard, and here are some cardboards that are a little damp, I put them into a separate bundle."

The boss was surprised to see that Lin Momo had already sorted and processed all the waste.

This kid handled these things well. He was much more honest than those people who came to sell scrap and stuffed wet garbage between the cardboard.

The boss smiled and weighed the things Lin Momo brought one by one.

"The cans are three and a half pounds, the transparent plastic bottles are three pounds and two ounces, the colored plastic bottles are five pounds and eight ounces, the dry waste paper is four pounds, and the wet waste is more than two pounds and eight ounces. I'll give you a discount and charge it at one and a half pounds."

"Two plus three equals six, two plus five equals ten... the total is twenty-eight dollars and six cents. I give you twenty-eight dollars..."

Before the boss could even finish his sentence, Lin Momo replied, "Fifty cents!"

Meeting the girl's expectant gaze, the boss smiled and said, "Okay, fifty cents is fine."

The junk this kid dragged in was real enough, so it wouldn't be a loss to give him a few cents more.

The boss counted out 28.5 yuan from his waist bag and handed it to Lin Momo.

"Thank you, boss and boss lady." Lin Momo took the money and thanked the scrap station owner and his wife.

Holding the money, Lin Momo happily prepared to go home.

At this moment, an 'accident' happened.

"Lin Momo!"

This is Lin Cheng's voice.

Lin Momo felt a chill on her back when she heard Lin Cheng calling her unexpectedly. She froze in place, not daring to look back.

I didn't understand why Lin Cheng appeared here.

At this time, the live broadcast room also became lively:

Oh no.

Oh no.

Oh no.

Lin Momo: I’m going to be in trouble.

Lin Momo: I was discovered doing private work.

Lin Momo: Dad finally wants to know how much I have contributed to this family.

In addition to those who were just watching the fun, some people in the live broadcast room also raised questions: This is too much of a coincidence, could it be that the program team deliberately arranged it

Looking at their expressions, I don't think they look alike? Someone argued.

This is indeed a coincidence.

Lin Cheng was originally going to deliver an appointment order to the nearby Wufang Community, but he happened to receive an instant order from the waste recycling station in Fengtan Lane.

Lin Cheng saw a familiar figure from a distance.

Initially, Lin Cheng didn’t believe that it was Lin Momo. After all, logically speaking, the child should be staying at home and doing homework.

It was not until he got closer and heard Lin Momo bargaining with the scrap yard owner that Lin Cheng was finally sure that he was not mistaken.

In order to make it easier to collect waste, Lin Momo changed into dirty clothes today. In addition, her hair was sweaty and messy from walking all the way. At this moment, the child looked like someone picked up on the roadside.

—It’s not yours, it’s not yours.

Lin Cheng muttered to himself twice in his heart before he finally suppressed his anger and walked towards Lin Momo as calmly as possible.

—Lin Cheng is an out-of-date artist who receives only a few notices a year. How come he seems to be busier than the big boss of Xingshi Entertainment

Chen Yu complained in his heart, but he put on a guilty smile on his face: "Sorry, Brother Cheng, I'm bothering you at this time. Because the recording time was suddenly moved up, and I couldn't find a suitable house temporarily, so I had to come to your place first."

After that, seeing that Lin Cheng didn't say anything, Chen Yu pulled Lin Momo behind him and introduced her, "This is the child I told you about before, her name is Lin Momo."

Lin Cheng's gaze followed Chen Yu to Lin Momo beside him: the girl was not tall, wearing a sweatshirt that didn't fit her well and the original color could no longer be seen, with a schoolbag on her back and a plastic bag in her hands.

Just as Chen Yu said before, this child does look a lot like him.

A strange feeling flashed through Lin Cheng's mind.

Out of curiosity, Lin Momo also stole a glance at the other person - this 'dad' was very tall and looked more handsome than the stars on the posters in the stationery store at the school gate, but he looked a little serious with his stern face.

At this time, Chen Yu pointed at Lin Cheng and said to Lin Momo: "This is Lin Cheng, Uncle Lin. From now on until the end of the filming, you have to call him dad, understand?"

Hearing this, Lin Momo nodded, took a half step forward, bowed to Lin Cheng in a formal manner, and said, "Hello, Dad."

Throughout the whole process, although Lin Momo tried her best to appear calm and composed, her tightly clenched fingers betrayed her.

Hearing Lin Momo call him "Dad", Lin Cheng felt even more weird.

"Come in." Lin Cheng said to them expressionlessly.

Chen Yu and his companions moved in the boxes of things they had brought.

These are the props they prepared specifically for the filming of this program: nothing more than some children's books, toys, daily necessities, and so on.

"It's just a little decoration, mainly to add a bit of childish atmosphere to your place." Chen Yu explained to Lin Cheng.

Seeing Lin Cheng nod, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief and asked Zhou Qi and others to start "dressing up".

Half an hour later.

Looking at the "newly renovated" home, Lin Cheng's face darkened slightly.

"Well, just deal with it on the day of recording. After the filming, I'll ask someone to clean it up right away." Chen Yu gritted his teeth and said to Lin Cheng with a dry laugh.

Here, Xu Jia handed a pink suitcase to Lin Momo and said, "These are the clothes prepared for you. The one on top is for tomorrow's interview. The rest are for you to wear during the official recording."

Lin Momo's own clothes are not suitable for the show.

These were the clothes provided by sponsors when the company held a child star talent show. After the event, no one wanted them and they were thrown in the company's storage room. Xu Jia found a few sets that were suitable for Lin Momo but not too flashy.

After that, Xu Jia glanced at the plastic bag in Lin Momo's hand and said, "Give me your bag."

Lin Momo looked puzzled, but still handed the bag to the other party.

The next second, Xu Jia handed the bag to Wang Xi and said, "Take it first. When you leave later, take it with you and throw it away."

Lin Momo: "!"

Hearing that the other party was going to throw her things away, Lin Momo's heart tightened, and she hurriedly stepped forward to grab the bag back: "Don't throw it away, I still need these."

These were the toiletries and clothes that her grandmother packed for her before she went out.

"Those things of yours are old, why do you still keep them?" Xu Jia frowned slightly and asked back.

"Yes, we have prepared new ones for you in the suitcase. You can use the new ones and don't keep the old ones." Wang Xi also echoed.

"No." Lin Momo insisted.

These things may not be good in the eyes of others, but they are the best things and clothes in their family.

If she throws it away now, what will she wear when she returns after the shooting is over

Seeing Lin Momo's firm attitude, the two had no choice but to compromise: "Okay, then don't throw it away."

"But you can't take these things with you. Give them to us first and we'll keep them for you. We'll return them to you after the filming is over."

If Lin Momo was accidentally photographed doing these things, others might think that the big star was mistreating her child.

After saying that, the two of them pretended to take the plastic bag from Lin Momo.

Lin Momo said nothing, but held the plastic bag tightly in her hand and refused to let go.

Just when the three of them were in a stalemate, Lin Cheng, who was not far away, suddenly spoke up and said in a deep voice: "Put the things here."

Hearing this, the people here were stunned.

"But," Xu Jia wanted to say something, but she keenly noticed a flash of impatience on Lin Cheng's face. Obviously, their quarrel over a bag of broken things had affected the peace of Lin Cheng, the host of the house.

Xu Jia had no choice but to shut up.

Chen Yu was also very tactful and pulled the three people along to prepare to leave.

Before leaving, Chen Yu handed a document to Lin Cheng and explained, "This is the information memo of this child. Brother Cheng, take a look at it when you have time."

"Put it down. I'll find time to look at it." Lin Cheng said indifferently.

"Okay then, I won't disturb you, Brother Cheng... You guys can take a rest."

After a pause, Chen Yu said with some concern: "Also, Brother Cheng, this child..."

Chen Yu wanted to say to Lin Cheng: This child is very well behaved, but he may not be able to adapt to the unfamiliar environment. You should be more patient.

As a result, before Chen Yu could finish his words, Lin Cheng gave him a cold look and asked speechlessly, "Can I still eat her?"

Chen Yu: “…”

"I'm not worried..." Chen Yu closed his mouth halfway through his words.

Compared to Lin Momo, he felt that he should be more worried about Lin Cheng.

After Chen Yu and his companions left, the "father and daughter" Lin Cheng and Lin Momo were left staring at each other in the room.

At this time, Lin Momo was still standing in the same position as before, motionless, holding her bag in her arms.
