Chapter 63: Caught Fishing at Work

Chapter 63

In the early morning, Ji Mochen was holding his daughter's hand as they set off on a treasure hunt, oh no, a mission to find tasks.

Logically, such tasks should be easy to find. Anywhere with markers or cameras would basically be a task point.

But this time the program team seemed to have gotten smarter and hadn't leaked any clues at all. Father and daughter wandered around until they finally wandered to the front of a doghouse.

"Dad, is this a task?"

Ji Ruochu pointed to the program team's name tag around the dog's neck.

Ji Mochen took a close look and found a newborn puppy whimpering as it lay on the program team's name tag.

Ji Mochen reached out and grabbed the puppy by the scruff of its neck to pull it out.

"Ruoruo, don't touch it." Ji Mochen stopped his daughter who was itching to grab the name tag, and took it himself.

The name tag read: Please give this puppy something to eat. Auntie He's braised pork trotters would be even better.

Ji Mochen: ......

【??? What kind of task is this?】

【A puppy with no teeth wants to eat trotters bigger than its head? 】

【Program team, this is really going overboard.】

Although reluctant, Ji Mochen still took his daughter to find Auntie He, and was then told that today's trotters had been sold out. If he wanted some, he'd have to go to the slaughterhouse at the village entrance to take a look.

Ji Ruochu blinked her eyes: A familiar recipe.

But Ji Mochen was in no hurry to take his daughter to the village entrance. Instead, he continued looking for other places with the program team's name tags.

Based on the doghouse they had just discovered, father and daughter successfully found one mission card each in an idle pigpen, a chicken coop with eggs but no chickens, and a bird's nest with birds but no eggs.

"Tingting!"

Two voices called out at the same time. The crew was startled to find it was a few children who seemed to be very familiar with Tingting.

"How come you haven't been playing with us lately? Did those rich kids give you good food?"

Tingting shook her head. "No, I just went to record the show. I have to take the money and food back home for my grandma, or she'll hit me."

"I see..." One little girl whispered something into Tingting's ear.

"I, I have to help my grandma in the fields these days, no time." Tingting looked conflicted.

"Anyway I've passed along the message, I'm not getting involved anymore."

With that, the children left together, leaving Tingting hesitating there for a long time before reluctantly returning home.

The crew member had already given up his earlier intention when he saw the children talking to Tingting. He casually ate the popsicle as he leisurely returned to the Ji house.

But as soon as he stepped over the threshold, he met the gaze of the little one who had just woken up from her nap and was squatting on the steps sucking her milk bottle like a mushroom.

Ji Ruochu, who had just taken a sip of milk:

Crew member: ......

Question: I was caught slacking off by a guest. What should I do? Please advise, it's urgent.

[Skit]

Yihua: Good news, good news! Ruoruo's scores are finally out - hmm? Score of 6.7?

Ruoruo, full of pretense: Hmph! It's just a score, who cares - as if anyone cares!

Yihua (yelling loudly): Wahhh... But I care! I care a lot! Why! Why only 6.7! I'm going to throw a tantrum!! (throwing tantrum...)

Ruoruo: Ah? Then, I'll try harder okay! Here~ Don't cry~ Have some milk to feel better~
