Chereads / Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son / Chapter 16 - There Will Be Slander When There Is Praise

Chapter 16 - There Will Be Slander When There Is Praise

After the farce between the children in the morning, all kinds of trending topics related to the parenting reality show "Mum's Company" rushed into the top ten trending searches on Weibo.

#Ye Zhenzhen protects her son with her strength, awesome!#

#How does a mother communicate with her child correctly#

#Wu Yuerou is the worst mother#

The most heated topic among these topics was naturally the farce of the two children in the morning. It involved three mothers and all kinds of opinions on the three mothers. Among them, three comments had the highest likes, and the number of likes was still increasing.

[Feet-picking Tomboy]: There are many spoiled children like An Ruilin around me. After seeing Wu Yuerou's behavior today, I feel that the child is not at fault. Rather, it's the adults who are at fault. Wu Yuerou did not guide the child well. If she could be like Ye Zhenzhen, An Ruilin would not be so naughty.

[Inborn pride]: Seeing Shen Yibo crying, I thought of the time when my cousin

snatched my Ultraman back when I was young. I refused to give it to him, and we ended up in a fight. In the end, my mum forced me to apologize to my cousin and even took my Ultraman away. Therefore, when I saw Ye Zhenzhen protect her child with such force today, I decided to be her fan. She is a good mother.

[Drunk with Raised Eyebrows]: I'm the mother of a three-year-old child. I really don't understand Han Jiangxue's way of thinking. What era is it now? Why is she still so old-fashioned? Even if her child has been wronged, she still asks her child to apologize to someone else's child. Why should she do that just because someone else's child cried? I really don't understand.

These comments were undoubtedly affirmation of Ye Zhenzhen's way of raising children.

With the appearance of the topics about the parenting reality show, more and more people paid attention to it. Even Ms. Xiao Tianai, a famous child expert in River City, liked the comment of the netizen, Inborn Pride.

Although the expert didn't say a word, her action of liking the comment raised the discussions about "Mum's Company" to another level.

With praise, there would naturally be slander. As such, more and more people came to criticize Ye Zhenzhen.

[What the hell? It's just a show. Do people actually believe in this?]

[You actually think that a vicious stepmother like Ye Jianjian is a good mother? What a joke]

[That's right. The good mothers are only Xiao Xue, as well as Xu Wanjia and Lin Qianqian. What has it got to do with Ye Jianjian?]

Regardless of whether it was praise or slander, Director Fei was pleasantly surprised by the statistics. His understanding of Ye Zhenzhen was refreshed again. At the same time, it also proved that his thoughts last night were correct.

After breakfast in the courtyard, Xiao Wen came forward to announce the next mission.

"Hello, mothers and children. Breakfast has ended. Next, you will have to settle your lunch by yourselves. The mission set by the program team is for mothers to bring their children to the villagers' homes to find a job in exchange for lunch, as well as bring back the ingredients needed for tonight's dinner and tomorrow's breakfast."

Xu Wanjia asked, "Do we have to go look for the mission points ourselves?"

Xiao Wen answered, "Yes, you have to find them yourself. You must go to the villagers' houses."

Everyone was speechless.

This mission was not difficult, but it wasn't easy either.

By the time they had finished their breakfast, it was already nine o'clock. In the countryside, most of the villagers had already gone out to do farm work at this time, and there were not many at home.

The five groups of guests split up and took action.

The first to find a job was Xu Wanjia and her daughter. They found a middle-aged couple who were harvesting corn. After hearing Xu Wanjia's request, they said that it was no problem at all.

Soon, Xu Wanjia and her daughter Baby Yiyi were busy harvesting corn.

After that, Wu Yuerou and her son found an old couple's house. Their family's farm work was picking cotton. They had to carry a basket on their backs to pick the cotton, and it didn't seem too difficult.

Han Jiangxue and her son went to the villager's house next door, which was also an elderly couple. They were going to dig sweet potatoes in the field today.

After knowing that sweet potatoes could be eaten, Shen Yibo jumped happily, "Yay! Yay! We're going to dig up sweet potatoes!"

The house Lin Qianqian and her mother found was quite lively. It was said that they were going to harvest paddy today and had thus invited their relatives to help. When they saw Lin Qianqian and her daughter, some villagers recognized them and welcomed them happily.

When they heard that Lin Qianqian and her daughter were going to help out for the sake of the variety show, the family was even happier.

[The villagers here are so nice and passionate.]

[Other than the remote location of Changle Village, the people there are really nice. I passed by this village when I went to climb Peace Mountain previously.]

[Me too. I went to climb Peace Mountain last year. I passed by this village and even went to the villagers' house for a meal. The people here are really nice.]

Among the five groups of guests, only Ye Zhenzhen and Song Yuchen held hands and visited a few houses only to find that all of them had their doors shut.

Song Yuchen was a little depressed.

"Can we find a job?"

If they couldn't find a job, they wouldn't have any lunch, nor food at night or tomorrow morning. Would he starve to death?

The more he thought about it, the more worried Song Yuchen became. He had never thought about what would happen if he went without food one day.

"Of course. Let's walk further."

Ye Zhenzhen also found the situation quite strange. When they left the house just now, Han Jiangxue had assigned routes to each of them and told them to go their separate ways to look for work at the villagers' houses. She hadn't thought so much about it then.

Now that she had come back to her senses, she realized that Han Jiangxue was really scheming.

That being said, they were still in the village, so it should not be impossible to find work.

However, there weren't many families on the road that she and Song Yuchen were walking on. They were either not at home all year round or had dogs in the homes but no owners.

Ye Zhenzhen recalled the original plot in the book. Han Jiangxue had also asked the original owner of this body to take this route, but she did not listen to her. Instead, she followed Han Jiangxue and eventually found a villager who was digging sweet potatoes.

Speaking of digging sweet potatoes, Ye Zhenzhen suddenly had an idea. If there really was no one living on this road, she would bring Song Yuchen to the fields to find work.

Although there was no one in the village, there should be many in the fields.

After walking for a few minutes, Song Yuchen was overjoyed as he pointed at a house with an open door not far away and said, "Hey! Mommy, look, there's an open door there."

Ye Zhenzhen was stunned by Song Yuchen's sudden call of "Mommy" and her heart was warm. Then, she looked in the direction Song Yuchen was pointing at.

It was obvious that this family was very rich. The house was a three-story bungalow, though it did not look new. It looked like it had experienced some time.

The interior of the courtyard looked huge, with two stone lions guarding the door. Looking inside from the white iron fence, the ground of the courtyard was covered with cement and was very clean.

Ye Zhenzhen walked to the door and asked, "Hello, is anyone there?"

No one answered.

Song Yuchen's childish voice also called out, "Hello, is anyone there?"

Ye Zhenzhen held Song Yuchen's hand and walked into the courtyard. She called out a few more times.

Just as she was about to give up and leave, the sound of the door opening came from inside the house, and a young man in his teens walked out with a tablet in his hand.

He stood on the steps of the mansion's main entrance, and his eyes were filled with impatience.

"Who are you? What do you want?"
