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

The call was quickly connected.

"Hello, who are you?"

"Excuse me, is the leak repaired by the house?" Lin Cheng asked.

"Yes, I am repairing the leak, where do you want to repair the leak?" the other party asked.

"Inside the house, the roof and the corners."

"No problem, you can make up."

"What's the price?" Lin Cheng asked.

"It depends on whether you do it as a lump sum or by the square meter."

"How much is it in square meters?"

"According to square meters, if the area is large, it will be 45 square meters, and if the area is not large, it will be 50 square meters."

"The area is not big."

"Then it's 50 for a flat, and I'll open an account this afternoon, and I'll count it as 48 for you."

Hearing what the other party said, Lin Cheng was about to say 'yes' when Lin Momo stopped him.

"I'll think about it and call you later."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Cheng looked down at Lin Momo and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Dad, look, there are still a few more to fill in the gaps." Lin Momo pointed to the other small advertisements on the wall, raised her head and said to Lin Cheng, "Call some more."

In the words of grandma, it is not a disadvantage to shop around.

Hearing this, Lin Cheng looked at Lin Momo. Originally, he wanted to tell Lin Momo that because of the temperament of the program group, the pre-stored call credit on the work mobile phone should not be able to make a few calls.

However, seeing Lin Momo's serious look, Lin Cheng still found two more phones on the wall and dialed them.

The other two quotes are similar to the first one.

In the end, Lin Cheng chose the one with the lowest quotation: 40 yuan per square meter, and the part less than one square meter will be counted as one square meter.

Hearing Lin Cheng's conversation with the person on the other end of the phone, Lin Momo half opened her mouth, looking anxious.

— Counter-offer! You forgot to counter-offer!

Unfortunately, before Lin Momo reminded Lin Cheng to bargain, Lin Cheng had already told the other party the address here.

"Shangbei Road, No. 4 Xisha Lane, you can come here now."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Cheng called Lin Momo.

"Let's go, the repairing master will be here in a while."

"Oh." Lin Momo followed Lin Cheng into the house, still struggling with the price of 40 yuan a flat in his head.

—

Back in the room, Lin Momo was sitting on the small bench with a 'stern' look on her face. She didn't know what she was thinking about, she looked like a little old lady.

Until Lin Cheng called Lin Momo.

"Ah?" Lin Momo looked up at Lin Cheng.

"Go and wipe off the ointment." Lin Cheng handed Lin Momo the ointment that had been removing bruises. It was bought at the pharmacy on the way here.

"Well, good." Lin Momo took the ointment, went to the sink and fiddled with the mirror.

The table of the sink was a bit high, Lin Momo had to put her feet up and try to lift her head up to barely look in the mirror.

At this time, the girl stretched her neck, jumped and jumped in front of the mirror, brushing the broken hair on her forehead with one hand, and applying medicine with the other. It looks a little funny.

After a while of shame, Lin Cheng finally couldn't stand it anymore, and took the ointment from Lin Momo.

"Okay, let me come."

Asking Lin Momo to stand in front of him, Lin Cheng dug out a lump of ointment and applied it to the bruised spot on Lin Momo's forehead.

The ointment is a bit cool and has a nice aroma.

Lin Momo grinned unconsciously.

It's just that Lin Cheng's ointment seems to be a little thick.

When Lin Cheng said "Okay", Lin Momo ran to the mirror to look, and saw that her forehead was covered with a thick layer of ointment, and her entire forehead looked shiny.

Lin Momo pouted in dissatisfaction, but she didn't raise her hand to wipe it off.

—

For the rest of the time, Lin Cheng moved away the furniture in the room where there were suspected leaks, leaving room for the master to operate later.

When Lin Cheng was halfway through his work, Lin Momo suddenly ran to his side with an excited face, still holding the check-in instruction given by the director team in his hand.

"Dad, Dad, look at this."

Lin Momo turned to the last page of the check-in instructions, pointed to the one on the ground and handed it to Lin Cheng, and said, "It says that during the check-in period, if the house windows are knocked on the door, water, electricity, gas, home appliances, etc. are damaged and need to be repaired, the tenants and Landlord negotiates apportionment."

"Does sharing mean that the landlord can help us pay half of the money?" Lin Momo asked a little excitedly.

Just as Lin Cheng was about to tell her that 'split' does not necessarily mean half of one party, Lin Momo flipped the check-in instructions to the end and said to him, "Here! Here is the landlord's phone number!"

After speaking, thinking of something, Lin Momo suddenly covered her mouth.

——She just remembered that when she was in the company before, Chen Yu and the others told her not to be too stingy on the show, and not to always talk about money, it would be annoying.

It's a pity that the words have already been spoken, and it's too late for Lin Momo to take them back.

It doesn't cost much to repair the leaks in their room, but seeing Lin Momo being tense for a while, serious for a while, and now inexplicably remorseful, Lin Cheng decided to fulfill the child's wish.

Lin Cheng dialed the number on the check-in instructions.

The phone rang for a while before being connected.

A woman's voice came from the phone.

"Eighty thousand."

"bump!"

"Wait! I'm stupid."

"Who is it?" the woman asked.

"A resident of 201."

Hearing this, the landlady on the other end of the phone was stunned: She remembered that 201 was rented by a program group.

Thinking that this resident might be a big star, the landlady's tone slowed down a bit: "What's the matter?"

"There are several water leaks in room 201. I asked the master to come over to fix the leaks..." On the phone, Lin Cheng explained the purpose of the call to the landlady.

Hearing that Lin Cheng had to go to him to negotiate and share the share just to fix a few small leaks, the landlady was a little unhappy, but she reluctantly agreed and rushed to the rental house.

…

Not long after the trapping master came, the landlady also arrived and knocked on Lin Cheng's door impatiently.

"Are you there? Tell me where you want to fix it."

Hearing the fierce voice outside the door, Lin Momo's hand that was about to open the door trembled.

At this time, Lin Cheng walked behind her and called the door.

The person who came was a woman in her fifties, who should be the landlord of this house.

"Hello." Lin Cheng said to the other party.

"You, hello."

The moment she saw Lin Cheng and Lin Momo, the landlady was slightly taken aback and her eyes lit up.

——This young man is really good-looking, more attractive than many stars on TV, and the little guy next to him is also cute, with a pleasing appearance.

The expression on the landlady's face was 'turning the storm' at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she smiled at the two of them.

"You said on the phone that there is something missing in this house?" asked the landlady.

"There are a few big water leaks in the corners of the walls and on the roof."

Before the landlord's wife arrived, Lin Cheng and his master had already determined the scope and area of ​​the leak with the leak repairing master.

Although several leakage points are more serious, but fortunately the leakage area is not large, adding up to less than 2 square meters.

After listening to Lin Cheng's explanation, the landlady's wife nodded, then waved her hand generously, and said, "Hey, I said how serious it is. It's just a matter of tens of dollars, so you don't have to pay. I'll pay for it." Just do it."

Seeing the landlady's 180-degree attitude change when facing Lin Cheng's father and daughter, many viewers in the live broadcast room were amused:

[Haha, I'll bet on a bag of spicy strips, this auntie charterer must be a face-controller! 】

【+1】

[When the landlord's wife saw Lin Cheng and Momo, the expression changes were not too real. 】

[I guess it's the same, hahaha. 】

…

Looking at the comments in the barrage area, Chen Yu and the three in front of the company's computer were deeply moved.

"Finally someone noticed my brother Cheng's good looks!" Wang Xi said excitedly.

The two men on the side nodded.

Lin Cheng's appearance has always been online. Although he is a singer, his appearance is not inferior to those so-called top streamers.

Although the program team has been touting the beauty of Bai Yulin and Duan Bei, and even directly labeled Bai Yulin and his daughter as a "good-looking father-daughter combination", in reality, Lin Cheng's group should be the five. The most beautiful in the group family.

—

Here, after the landlady finished talking with Lin Cheng and his daughter, they walked over to the mending master, and then there was a fierce bargaining.

Under the stunned expressions of the father and daughter here, the landlady's wife directly talked about the cost price of 21 yuan and 5 yuan for the leak.

Lin Cheng: "..." The first time, no experience.

Lin Momo: "..." She still has to work hard.

Several water leaks were repaired quickly. Although the landlady insisted that she would pay for this part of the money, Lin Cheng insisted on paying half of the cost.

The landlady smiled again and explained to the father and daughter the situation of the house and the surrounding traffic conditions.

At this moment, Lin Momo stood aside and tugged at Lin Cheng's sleeve.

"What's wrong?" Lin Cheng lowered his head and asked.

"This." Lin Momo handed her notebook to Lin Cheng, which was the 'strategy' she made in advance after she knew she was going to sell buns.

Lin Cheng's eyes quickly scanned the notebook: it recorded the fillings and mixing ratios required for each type of steamed stuffed bun, and also vividly drew several flow charts of how to make steamed stuffed buns.

Lin Momo asked these questions from her grandma, the grandmas upstairs and downstairs, and the aunts on weekends. She also went to squat for a long time opposite the bun shop where she often bought buns, and quietly learned how the boss made buns. technique.

"We can ask where to buy these things the cheapest." Lin Momo whispered.

Hearing Lin Momo's words, Lin Cheng understood what she meant.

"Ask you something more." Lin Cheng said to the landlady.

"Why are you being polite, just ask whatever you want."

"We need to buy some materials for making buns, and we want to find a more economical place nearby."

Hearing Lin Cheng's words, the landlady's wife immediately smiled: "You are asking the right person."

"You don't have to go far for pork. The one in our alley is good. The price is cheap and the meat is fresh. When you go to buy it, just say I recommend it and ask the boss to give you a cheaper price."

"I buy vegetables and green onions at the vegetable market on Xishaxin Street."

"There are also dry goods such as peanuts and sugar. From here, take bus 386 to Xilin Market. You should be able to buy them all there. There is also flour. If you don't think it's too far away, go to the food market in Dongshi to buy it. Cheap."

The landlord's wife is worthy of being an 'expert'. After a few words, she asked the father and daughter to plan the most economical purchase plan.

Lin Cheng wrote down a few things the landlady said.

Lin Momo was worried that she would not be able to remember, so she simply wrote it down in a notebook.

…

night.

The 'father and daughter' were doing their own things, and there was still no communication throughout the process.

However, such a picture does not make people feel wrong.

Lin Cheng first checked the house to make sure there were no potential safety hazards, and then went downstairs to check the tricycle parked outside, pumped up the wheels and oiled the chain.

When Lin Cheng finished all this and returned to the room, Lin Momo was still sitting at the small table, biting the tip of her pen, holding her notebook, and counting with her brow furrowed.

The task they have to complete this week is 800 yuan, and the purchase money and living expenses given to them by the program team are exactly 800 yuan. If they don't eat or drink, it seems that they can just complete the task?

Lin Momo thought distractedly.

However, taking a peek at Lin Cheng, Lin Momo quickly dispelled this unrealistic idea: I can't starve my father to death.

Lin Momo silently shook her head.

Lin Cheng who was on the side saw Lin Momo's small movements, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: What does this child mean when he looks at him with caring and worried eyes?

Here, Lin Momo looked away and continued to think about her family's livelihood.

According to the experience of the previous week, if there is no unexpected situation, their living expenses will be 318 yuan.

But this week, their family has transportation, and they can eat their own steamed buns for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The transportation and food expenses can be saved, at least 200 yuan can be reduced. In this way, they only need to leave 118 yuan. As living expenses, the rest of the money can be used to buy goods and sell a lot of steamed stuffed buns.

Looking at the expenditure plan he had calculated, Lin Momo nodded in satisfaction.

At the same time, they are more and more satisfied with the [Family Background] they have drawn this time.

Beside him, watching Lin Momo smirking and nodding, Lin Cheng miraculously guessed what was going on in her heart.

Seeing the girl looking happy and satisfied, Lin Cheng decided not to tell the other party the truth that they were the worst this time.

"Forget it?" Seeing Lin Momo put away the pen, Lin Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Hmm, that's fine."

Lin Momo walked over, divided the money into several stacks like a housekeeper, and gave one of the stacks to Lin Cheng, and introduced: "This is the money for our purchases, this is the living expenses, and here is 37 yuan. The pocket money for Dad, if you are thirsty or don’t want to eat buns, you can buy other food or other things.”

Seeing Lin Momo's serious face, Lin Cheng thought it was a little funny, but also felt a little inexplicably moved.

I wanted to say 'no', but at Lin Momo's insistence, Lin Cheng still accepted the pocket money given to him.

—

Early the next morning, Lin Cheng left Lin Momo at home, and went to the farthest destination to purchase flour and energy for the fire.

The pile of briquettes left on the tricycle was mostly burned, and the remaining half-burned ones were basically useless and had to be bought again.

However, Lin Cheng did not go to the coal market to buy honeycomb coal, but directly replaced the honeycomb coal with a gas tank, and spent some money to change the previous stove into a gas-burning stove.

[Wow, dad is pretty amazing! 】

[Hands-on ability is very strong. 】

In the live broadcast room, many people were amazed to see Lin Cheng use the accessories bought from the hardware market and follow the tutorial on his mobile phone to change the briquette stove into a gas stove.

[But why change the stove to burn liquefied petroleum gas? 】

[For more convenience. 】

[But wouldn't it cost a lot of money in this way? 】

【uncertain. ] Someone made a different sound.

[When I was a child, my old house was coal-fired, but it was later changed to gas-fired, which was much more economical. 】

【I see. 】

…

Everyone is guessing that the reason why Lin Cheng did this is to save costs.

But in fact, Lin Cheng didn't calculate the cost in this aspect, he was more concerned about safety.

With the character of the kid at home, if he goes to sell buns, the other party will definitely follow.

The space on the back of the tricycle is limited, and the only place where people can stand and move around is too close to the two stoves. If you are not careful, you may be burned by the outer wall of the stove.

In contrast, it is safer to use small canned gas instead.

Lin Cheng didn't realize it, but before he knew it, he had already started to think about Lin Momo.

After pulling two cans of gas from the liquefied gas tank station and leaving, Lin Cheng went to the East District Market to buy flour.

—

At this time, Lin Momo, who was staying at home, was full of worries, for fear that Lin Cheng would be fooled by bargaining if he went shopping.

As everyone knows, after Lin Cheng arrived at the food market, he directly started the "merchant mode", and after a few conversations, he successfully got the lowest delivery price from the boss.

Lin Cheng walked out of the ingredients market carrying two large bags of flour, as well as other improvers and yeast samples presented by the boss.

When passing the gate of the market, Lin Cheng was stopped by two young men in advertising shirts.

"Hi sir, we are doing a love initiative. As long as you take a picture of a smiling face, you can get a toy doll for free. Are you interested in participating?" the young girl asked.

In front of the public welfare exhibition board not far away, many people have already participated in the activity and took pictures.

Lin Cheng took a look, then looked back expressionlessly: "Sorry, no."

Lin Cheng was about to leave, but stopped when he passed the pile of toy dolls.

"Is this what they delivered?" Lin Cheng stopped and asked the staff.

"Yes, you can choose the ones here."

"How to shoot?"

"It's very simple, just stand in front of our love public welfare card and make a gesture of love to take a photo." The staff explained.

Lin Cheng was taken by the staff to the queue next to the public service card, but he still hadn't figured out what he was thinking just now.

Before, when filming the pilot film of the show, I heard Lin Momo say that her grandma had spent the entire night filming in the shopping mall to get her a free desk lamp. At that time, Lin Cheng’s thoughts were still: this way of getting a desk lamp is not not worth it.

But Lin Cheng never expected that he would be so crazy that he would do such a 'stupid' thing.

Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng walked up to the public welfare card and made the designated gesture of love.

"May I smile a little?" the filming staff reminded.

Hearing this, Lin Cheng slightly bent his mouth.

A few voices of "so handsome" came from the side immediately.

It wasn't until Lin Cheng picked up a toy doll and left that no one among the staff at the back realized it.

"Why did that person look familiar just now?"

"You look familiar to handsome guys." A colleague on the side joked.

"No, I've seen it somewhere..." The girl muttered, suddenly thought of something, and said, "I remembered! That person just now seemed to be a celebrity, and he participated in the same variety show as Duan Bei. What's his name..."

She was looking at Duan Bei to watch the program trailer. During the process, Lin Cheng's figure did appear for a few seconds. It's just because Lin Cheng is not well-known and there are not many shots in the trailer, so she doesn't have much impression.

"What variety show? I'll go see it too."

…

Lin Cheng didn't know about the conversation between several people.

After putting the flour in the bucket, Lin Cheng rode his tricycle back to their residence.

Before entering the alley, Lin Cheng saw Lin Momo from a distance.

At this time, Lin Momo was squatting on the side of the curb at the entrance of the alley, resting her chin on her hands, and glanced in the direction of the car from time to time.

Before Lin Cheng called her, Lin Momo had already seen Lin Cheng first.

Seeing Lin Cheng's return, Lin Momo's eyes showed surprise. She stood up from the ground, stood there for a while, and then trotted two steps towards him.

Looking at the girl bouncing towards him, an inexplicable warmth flashed across Lin Cheng's heart. He, who had never considered the issue of starting a family, actually had a feeling in his heart that "it feels like having a child of my own." Nice 'idea.

"If you're not at home, what are you doing squatting here?" Lin Cheng asked.

"Wait for you." After Lin Momo finished speaking, she walked around to the side of the tricycle with an expectant expression on her face, curiously leaning on the side of the car to see what Lin Cheng had purchased.

At this time, Lin Momo saw something like a 'sandbag' hanging on the corner of the car.

Before Lin Momo could study it, Lin Cheng took the thing off and handed it to Lin Momo.

"This is?" It seems to be a doll toy.

"It was distributed at the gate of the market. I got one for you when I saw it." Lin Cheng explained lightly, not wanting to mention the matter of taking pictures.

"Really?!" Lin Momo was surprised.

I took the doll and looked at it carefully.

This is a caterpillar with a khaki sausage mouth. It looks ugly. There is also a promotional slogan of "Green Shoot Fund, Let Love Pass" printed on the front.

But this didn't affect Lin Momo's liking for it at all.

"Thank you, Dad." Lin Momo said to Lin Cheng with a smile while holding the doll.

"Go back and see."

"good."

…

Because of the tight purchasing time on the first day, the two had lunch outside at noon.

In the afternoon, Lin Cheng was going to go out to purchase other materials.

Before going out, he looked back and saw Lin Momo sitting on the bench obediently, with a pitiful expression on his face, and a pair of eyes looking at him expectantly, Lin Cheng sighed, and finally took Lin Momo with him.
