The National Girl is Three and a Half Years Old Chapters List

Chapter 34: Day 34 of Raising the Nation’s Little Darling

"Traveling with Babies" caused too much of a sensation when it filmed its first episode in the 5A scenic area, Sishui Ancient City, so the filming location for the second episode was deliberately changed to a small mountain village with a sparse population.

"Hello everyone, I am Tian Tian, the intern village chief of Fengxi Village." Standing in front of the guests and speaking was Tian Tian, the specially invited guest host from Fruit TV.

She hosted a popular emotional advice program called Voice of the Moon, helping viewers resolve various emotional problems. With her gentle and elegant appearance and a very soothing voice, her show consistently had high ratings, and she was known as the warm-hearted “Big Sister” of the network.

"As before, we have prepared five different houses for everyone in the village this time, numbered from House No. 1 to House No. 5. The conditions of each house are also different, with House No. 1 having the best conditions and House No. 5 having the worst conditions."

Compared to the remote Fengxi Village, the living conditions in Sishui Ancient City, where they filmed the last episode, were already considered quite decent. Even the best house in Fengxi Village only had simple floor tiles, while the worst one, House No. 5, was even more basic than the previous House No. 5.

"As for what the houses actually look like, I will keep it a secret for now. After you draw lots and get assigned your houses, we’ll reveal them one by one."

Tian Tian pulled out a cardboard box and continued, "Now, let’s have our five little cuties draw lots to decide where each group will stay during these two days in Fengxi Village!"

After explaining the rules, Chang Qingyan, the most quick-witted of the five little adorable kids, was the first to react, raised his hand asking, "Village chief, there are five children here in total. Who will draw lots first?"

Tian Tian recalled the order of the process that the production team had told her, glanced over the row of people in front of her, and landed on the temporary father and daughter in the last group. She said with a smile, "Suisui, you and your intern father Ke Jingyang were unlucky last time and chose House No. 5. Today, Auntie will give you a chance to turn things around, okay? You can come over and draw lots first."

Suddenly called by name, Gu Suisui raised her head blankly. Her white and clean little face was full of expressions of not knowing what was happening around her. After a while, she reacted with the reminder of others, saying in a soft voice, "...Oh, okay."

Tian Tian is the host of an emotional program. Her program not only solves love disputes between men and women but also sometimes regulates the relationship between parents and children. This is also one of the reasons why the production team asked her to be a special guest in the second episode.

And honestly, the production team really picked a group of stunning participants this time. All the celebrity parents and their kids were seriously good-looking, especially this non-celebrity little girl. When the kid looked up just now, her whole heart almost melted. Tian Tian really wanted to pat her head and hug her in her arms and kiss her.

"Aaaaahhh, she’s way too cute! Makes me want to have a baby just to raise one like her!!"

Gu Suisui put her little hand into the cardboard box and, according to the requirements of the intern village chief, took out a small yellow ball from it, saying in an obedient manner, "Village chief, I've finished drawing."

Tian Tian took the small ball from the little child Gu Suisui's hand and said with a smile, "Okay, now let us open it and see what the number inside is. Can our temporary father and daughter pair get rid of the bad luck from last time and live in a better house?"

The surrounding cameras were all aimed in this direction. Not only did the other guests present want to know what the number in the ball was, but Ke Jingyang, who seemed to not care about anything, was also staring at the small ball.

Come on, kid. You can do it.

Please don't be the number 5, please don't be the number 5, please don't be the number 5...

Ke Jingyang said that he never wanted to sleep in a dilapidated thatched house again, and he never wanted to sleep on a hard wooden bed again.

When Tian Tian saw the number on the slip of paper inside the small ball, her expression froze slightly. Then, she unfolded it, showed it to everyone, and said, "It seems that our Suisui is very lucky. She drew the best House No. 1 as soon as she came on stage. As expected, girls who love to smile will not have bad luck."

Hearing this number, Gu Suisui blinked her eyes and immediately trotted over to grab the intern father's hand, saying in an excited tone, "Daddy Ke! I really drew House No. 1 this time!"

When he went forward to draw the lottery just now, Ke Jingyang told Gu Suisui to draw a small number. Of course, it would be even better if she could draw House No. 1.

Although the little cotton candy was ignorant, she could still understand that the smaller the number, the better the house they would live in. As a result, she found that she had directly drawn the smallest number 1 as soon as she came up. How could she not be happy about this?!

The corners of Ke Jingyang's mouth raised slightly, giving her a slightly reserved smile: "Ahem, you have good luck. Let's continue to work hard next time."

Saying that, his gaze fell on the hand that the little girl was holding his... Ah, forget it, since she made a great contribution just now, he would reluctantly let her hold it for a while longer.

The other guests heard that the best House No. 1 was gone, and their faces showed surprise and loss, but most of them were blessings to Ke Jingyang and Gu Suisui.

The remaining four children also stepped forward to draw lots one by one. The order was based on the order of the houses they lived in last time, first House No. 5, then House No. 4, House No. 3, House No. 2, and finally House No. 1.

This time, House No. 1 was located at the head of the village and was also the home of the real village chief of Fengxi Village. The floor of the house was covered with white tiles. Although it couldn't compare to the city, it looked clean and tidy.

This time, the temporary father and daughter, who got House No. 1 by luck, finally had a great turnaround. Not only did they have a "luxurious" big house to live in, but the production team also prepared a large table of food for them in their room!!

Smelling the fragrance, Gu Suisui exclaimed and said excitedly, "Daddy Ke, look, there's so much food on the table!" It all looks super tasty (/≧▽≦/)~

Tsk. What a silly little thing.

Still the same as before.

It’s already been a week, why hasn't there been any progress at all...

"It's just a table of food. Is it necessary to be so happy?" Ke Jingyang subconsciously reached out and touched the little girl's soft hair. Seeing that she had been staring at the food on the table, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his tone was full of indifference.

However, in the next second, Gu Suisui suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes, asking in a gentle and innocent voice, "Daddy Ke, we drew House No. 1 this time, so we don't have to live in the thatched house from last time anymore, right? We can always live here."

Why bring up what shouldn't be brought up!

Ke Jingyang, who had almost forgotten about it, had to be forced to recall how poor they were in the last episode, not to mention letting each other have the two white steamed buns, and running to other guests' homes for food at noon, as well as selling "beauty" on the street to let fans buy them roasted sweet potatoes to eat.

Ke Jingyang coughed awkwardly and began to try to change the topic, no longer discussing this suffocating topic: "Suisui, aren't you hungry? Are we just going to stand here and stare at this pile of delicious food on the table?"

It couldn't be easier to get a three-and-a-half-year-old child to focus on other things. Ke Jingyang pulled back Gu Suisui's memories of filming the last episode with just a few words.

Ke Jingyang roughly glanced at the food on the table. There were actually quite a few types, both meat and vegetables. Although he had eaten a lot of delicacies since he was a child, this episode was indeed much better than the embarrassing situation in the last episode.

And they were able to live in a big house and eat their fill this time, thanks to the little child Gu Suisui.

Thinking of this, Ke Jingyang looked at the little girl beside him who almost couldn't reach the table and took the initiative to put a piece of meat in her bowl, saying, "Suisui, eat more."

The child's height was so short, not even as long as his legs. If she didn't take advantage of her young age to eat more now, would she still be able to grow tall in the future?

"Thank you, Daddy Ke~" Gu Suisui, who was eating, chewed with her cheeks bulging, like a cute little hamster.

Ke Jingyang fully absorbed the lessons and experiences from last time and came over after eating and drinking his fill on the road, so his stomach wasn't very hungry now, but seeing the little girl eating so deliciously, he couldn't help but put two chopsticks of stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat in front of the little child Gu Suisui.

Is it that delicious? Actually… it's not that bad.

After Ke Jingyang went back after filming the show last week, he specifically watched a few more children's educational films, and then he belatedly realized that Gu Suisui, who was only three and a half years old, seemed to be easier to take care of than other children of the same age? She didn't need him to feed her, she didn't need him to dress her, she ate and drank when she should, and it seemed like there was nothing that he, the intern father, couldn't help with??

Unlike their situation, where they had everything from chicken to duck to fish to meat, the treatment of the other four groups of celebrity fathers and sons (mothers and daughters) was much worse.

Qu Mingshan and his son, who had chosen House No. 1 last time, drew the mediocre House No. 3 this time. The lunch prepared by the production team was also home-style dishes, and the taste was very average, not as delicious as Qu Mingshan made himself, but the father and son both ate with relish, not at all affected by the surrounding environment.

And to say who was the worst this time, it was the owners of House No. 5, Chang Yi and his son. They were staying in a mud-brick house on the west side of the village. The only furniture inside was a table and a few stools, the rickety kind that looked like they could collapse at any moment.

The lunch that the production team prepared for them only had two plates of vegetarian dishes, all kinds of vegetable leaves, which didn't look very appetizing.

Little Chang Qingyan sighed like a tiny grown-up, looked at his dad, and asked, “Dad, what are we going to do?”

Last time, the production team asked everyone to cook their own meals for the first meal in Sishui Ancient City. Although they got more ingredients than the last two people in House No. 5, Chang Yi couldn't cook, and he didn't choose white steamed buns directly like Ke Jingyang, so the final result was predictable.

The father and son also learned afterward that they could go to other people's homes for food.

"Dad, why don't we go to Suisui-meimei's place for food too? They live in House No. 1, and the food they eat must be better than ours."

Hearing his son's words, Chang Yi gently knocked on the back of his head and said, "Don't you think about it? House No. 1 is in the east of the village, and we live in the west of the village. How can we go there for food?" Besides, the little child Gu Suisui was young and a delicate little girl, so of course, there was nothing wrong with it. What was it like for him, a five-year-old boy, to want him, a man in his thirties, to take him to other people's homes for food all day long!

In fact, not only these guests didn't expect it last time, but even the production team themselves didn't expect that Ke Jingyang could actually make the move of taking a child to other people's homes for food.

Last time, the incident happened suddenly, and they couldn't stop it in time. This time, the production team simply improved the plan and arranged the best House No. 1 and the worst House No. 5 in the two farthest places in the village.

==

After lunch, it started to rain lightly in the village, but they still had to feed the chicks in the village chief's house.

After all, as a "big family," they had to have the self-awareness of a big family.

Ke Jingyang squatted down, putting on the small yellow raincoat prepared by the production team for Gu Suisui.

"Daddy Ke, you buttoned the buttons in the wrong place~" Gu Suisui pointed to her clothes, which were obviously uneven up and down.

Gu Suisui had always put on her own clothes, but this one had buttons, and it was too slow for her to do it herself. Usually, her mother helped her, but now that her mother wasn't by her side, the little cotton candy could only come to her intern father with hopeful eyes.

Hearing her little complaint, Ke Jingyang, who was putting on clothes for such a small child for the first time, fixed his eyes and saw that the buttons had been buttoned wrong from the first one. He didn't realize it until he buttoned the last one.

"..." It was all because the buttons on this raincoat were too small! That's why he didn't see it!

Ke Jingyang blushed embarrassedly and said awkwardly, "Um, let me re-button it for you."

Gu Suisui pursed her small mouth and said in a milky voice, "Daddy Ke, you're so stupid~" Even a three-and-a-half-year-old child like her wouldn't button the buttons wrong!

Hearing the child's words, the "stupid" Ke Jingyang's ears heated up, and he said in embarrassment and anger, "Shut up! If you say any more, I won't help you put on the raincoat, and I'll let you stay at home alone, and I'll go outside to feed the chicks myself."

In fact, the production team didn't originally want to let a child who was only three years old go out in the rain. Although the rain outside wasn't heavy, the intern father didn't look very reliable, and they were also afraid that something would happen to her. But when Gu Suisui heard that she could see the chicks, she cheered and acted spoiled with the people around her, saying that she wanted to go together. Then Ke Jingyang didn't know what was wrong with him and agreed to take her with him.

Seeing that this big star didn't say anything, the production team was of course happy to see it happen, so they could film more material of the two of them getting along.

Since the trending search incident last time, the production team found that this pair of temporary father and daughter was more interesting and had more topics for discussion than the other four groups of real celebrity parents and children. Just one photo with the child directly went viral on Weibo and became the top trending search!

Hearing that she might not be allowed to see the chicks, Gu Suisui quickly covered her mouth with her little hands, closing it tightly, with the expression that she wouldn't say anything.

Huh? But... why are Daddy Ke's ears so red?

Ke Jingyang pretended to be calm and re-buttoned the raincoat for the little child Gu Suisui. This time, he didn't button it in the wrong place again.

Once they got there, he’d definitely make the chatty little thing do more work!

He took a few steps ahead, but suddenly realized that the excited little girl wasn’t following him. Turning back, he saw her struggling to walk. The raincoat was too long for someone her height. No matter how hard she tried to lift it up, she still couldn’t move properly.

Seeing this scene of the little girl wobbling along, Ke Jingyang laughed out loud without being very kind and teased, "Little shorty."

Gu Suisui, who had been troubled by the fact that she was the shortest of everyone, felt very wronged after hearing his words and subconsciously retorted, "I'm not a little shorty, my father is very, very tall!" So she will definitely grow very, very tall in the future!

Ke Jingyang touched her head, pulled the corners of his mouth with a happy mood, and said with a smile, "What does it have to do with you, a half-grown child, that your father is very tall?" Very tall? Is he as tall as me?

Gu Suisui stuck out her neck, her face flushed red, and said, "It, it just has something to do with it!"

Seeing the very childish way of arguing between the big and small in front of them, the staff of the production team were worried that their intern father would make the little girl cry again, so they quickly suggested, "Teacher Ke, you can actually hug the child. The place where the village chief raises chickens is not far from here, only two or three minutes away."

What? Hug?

Ke Jingyang froze directly in place. How would he hug a child!

Impossible! Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!!

Gu Suisui thought about the chicks that she had been thinking about for a long time and forgot about the argument about height just now. She tilted her head, took the initiative to open her arms, and looked at the adult next to her with a pair of watery almond eyes, saying with a face full of anticipation, "Daddy Ke, hug~"

Ke Jingyang: "..."

Hey! Didn't you just say that your dad is very tall? Go find your real dad to hug you ahhhh!!
