Xiao Shu stood on tiptoe to look at the pumpkin pie in his mother’s hand, with a confused look on his face. He raised his little face to look at his father, and asked with his big eyes,

　　What is mom going to do?

　　After Lin Mingqi paid for the pumpkin pie, he followed her out and asked, “Want to buy pumpkin cookies?”

　　”Let’s go!” Gu Qianjing took Xiao Shu’s hand, “Let’s go give Xiu Ziheng pumpkin pie!”

　　Lin Mingqi, “…” Just be quiet, ancestor!

　　Xiao Shu: “…” My mom is so handsome!

　　In the playground of Ankang Primary School, Gu Qianjing took four children to sit cross-legged in a circle on the grass. She opened the takeaway box and

　　”Children, raise your hands if you want pumpkin pie!”

　　The four little balls raised their hands in unison, and Xiao Ju scratched her head in embarrassment because the sound of swallowing was too loud.

　　”Yes.” Gu Qianjing nodded, “The thing is, because Xiu Ziheng didn’t have pumpkin pie last night, auntie bought some pumpkin pie and sent it to him today.”

　　Xiu Ziheng had cried all morning, and his eyes were swollen, looking smaller than usual, pitiful. Now, after hearing Gu Qianjing’s words, his mood immediately turned from gloomy to sunny, and he tried to stare at the pumpkin pie with wide eyes.

　　”Of course, other children have them too, but you have to ask your mother’s opinion first. You can only eat them if your mother agrees.”

　　Xiao Ju and Xixi nodded seriously.

　　The light in Xiu Ziheng’s eyes dimmed. His mother would definitely not agree to him eating pumpkin pie.

　　Gu Qianjing asked again, “Xiu Ziheng’s mother agreed to let him eat pumpkin pie last night. You kids can all testify to that, right?”

　　”Yes!” The three little ones nodded in unison. They all heard Xiu Ziheng’s mother say that she agreed to let him eat pumpkin pie.

　　”But he didn’t actually get to eat it, right?” Gu Qianjing asked again.

　　This time, Xiu Ziheng took the initiative to say, “Auntie, I really didn’t get to eat pumpkin pie.” As he spoke, tears squeezed out of his little eyes again.

　　Maybe a small piece of pumpkin pie is really nothing to an adult, but to Xiu Ziheng at that moment, it is like the whole world. If he cannot eat this piece of pie, he may really feel unhappy for the rest of his life.

　　”Auntie knows.” Gu Qianjing pursed her lips and nodded at him, “So you don’t need to ask mom today. Auntie is giving you the piece you didn’t eat yesterday. The other kids can call their moms to ask!”

　　Xiao Ju and Xixi obediently used the children’s watches to make a phone call, telling their mother on the other end of the phone that Aunt Gu had sent pumpkin pie and asked if they could have some.

　　Xiao Shu held the writing board with a confused look on his face. Everyone went to ask his mother. He thought about it and wrote on the writing board.

　　”Mom, can Xiaoshu eat it?” He also wanted to ask his mother.

　　Gu Qianjing was amused by him, pinched his slippery little face, and said reluctantly, “Okay, you’ll eat one!”

　　Lin Mingqi leaned against the horizontal bar in the playground, looking at the grass through the shade of the trees. Gu Qianjing was sitting on the grass with a group of little kids eating pumpkin pie like a child king. This scene made Lin Mingqi’s heart soften inexplicably.

　　The netizens in the live broadcast room all groaned.

　　【Who wouldn’t want a mother like Qianqian? 】

　　[I suspect that if Li Yunhua knew about this, she would definitely cause trouble for Qianqian. Please protect our Gu Qianjing in the comment section.]

　　[Li Yunhua, shouldn’t you reflect on your own reasons at this time? ]

　　[If she could reflect on herself, she would not be Li Yunhua! ]

　　After eating pumpkin pie with the children, Gu Qianjing and Lin Mingqi separated at the school gate, one went to a jewelry store, and the other went to the town to find a place to buy a kite.

　　Li Yunhua was sad for a while in the jewelry store, and was a little worried about Xiu Ziheng, so she called the photography assistant to ask about Xiu Ziheng’s situation.

　　The photography assistant hesitated for a moment, then told the truth, “Xiao Shu’s mother just came to the school and bought pumpkin pie for Ziheng and other children. Ziheng is in a much better mood now and is already taking a nap.”

　　Before the assistant could finish his words, Li Yunhua hung up the phone angrily.

　　She stood up and rushed out of the jewelry store, meeting Gu Qianjing who had just returned.

　　Gu Qianjing glanced at her and walked into the jewelry store nonchalantly.

　　”Stop!” Li Yunhua stopped Gu Qianjing, “Why do you give my son pumpkin pie without my consent?”

　　Gu Qianjing smiled faintly, “Didn’t Teacher Li agree yesterday? I’m just filling in the piece that Ziheng didn’t eat yesterday. Is there any problem?”

　　Li Yunhua choked.

　　Gu Qianjing said again, “Teacher Li, we are both mothers, I want to remind you that some things are too much, too little, your unorthodox health theory will not only not improve the body, but also cause psychological problems for your children. While you are looking down to take care of your child, why not look up to see if the child is really happy, okay?”

　　”You!” Li Yunhua raised her finger and pointed at the tip of Gu Qianjing’s nose, “Are you teaching me how to behave?”

　　Gu Qianjing slapped her hand away, “Don’t point your finger at me. Also, I’m just suggesting that you be a good mother and don’t dig your own grave!”

　　After saying that, Gu Qianjing walked around Li Yunhua and entered the silver shop, leaving behind a cool and beautiful back.

　　[It is you, Gu Qianjing! ]

　　[Hahahahaha, Li Yunhua’s face turned pale with anger, Sister Qian is so domineering! ]

　　[Don’t leave, just say a few more words to her.]

　　[Hahaha, counterattack Qian, I like counterattack Qian! ]

　　[I was worried that Sister Qian would be bullied by Li Yunhua before, but it seems that I was worrying too much. People like Sister Qian will never suffer any loss wherever they go! ]

　　Back in the jewelry store, Gu Qianjing continued with her morning practice. After a while, Li Yunhua came in with a grim look on her face, but she did not continue arguing. She sat down in her seat and started working in silence.

　　Lu Yi leaned over and asked in a low voice, “Xiao Ju said that you bought pumpkin pie to school. What’s going on?” She looked so cautious, just like a primary school student slacking off in class.

　　Gu Qianjing smiled at her and said, “It’s hard to explain in a few words. You’ll know when you watch the live broadcast tonight.”

　　On the other side, Lin Mingqi walked around the town and found several toy stores that didn’t have any kites for sale. The old man guarding the toy store told him,

　　”It’s too hot in the summer, no one flies kites. If you want to buy one, you have to go to the city, where you can buy everything.”

　　It’s more than 100 kilometers round trip from here to the nearest city. Lin Mingqi raised his wrist to check the time, turned around and walked towards the B&B. It should still be in time to go back and drive.

　　Back at the B&B, Uncle Yang was feeding the fish by the fish pond. When he saw Lin Mingqi come in, he greeted him, “Xiao Lin, you’re back?”

　　”Yeah.” Lin Mingqi replied, “Come back and drive. I need to go out for a while.”

　　”Where are you going?” Uncle Yang asked out of habit.

　　Lin Mingqi answered smoothly, “Go to the city to buy a kite. The child wants to play with it.”

　　Uncle Yang put the fish food on the edge of the fish pond and walked over with his hands behind his back. “Flying Kite, can’t you just make one yourself?”

　　”Hmm? You can?”

　　”That’s not difficult.” Uncle Yang looked very experienced. “Use bamboo strips to build a frame and paste paper on it. If you can draw, you can add some patterns. That’s it, right? I’ll help you!”

　　Lin Mingqi thought what Uncle Yang said made sense, “Thank you for your hard work!”

　　Three full hours had passed and Gu Qianjing was about to get off work. Lin Mingqi looked at the unknown object spread out on the table and found it difficult to connect it with the kite in his memory.

　　”It hasn’t been painted yet. It will look nice if you draw something on it.” Uncle Yang looked confident as an experienced man. In fact, it was his first time making a kite, but he had seen people making it in the town before.

　　Then Lin Mingqi added some drawings on the ugly kite according to his own imagination.

　　A little after 6 o’clock, Gu Qianjing came back with Xiao Shu. She saw a kite with a simple shape spread out on the stone table in the garden. It was obvious that the kite was not bought outside. When she saw some paint on the cuffs of Lin Mingqi’s linen shirt, Gu Qianjing guessed who made the kite.

　　Although… Lin Mingqi’s love for making kites for children is worthy of praise, so Gu Qianjing deliberately raised her voice,

　　”Wow, is this the big silver carp kite that Dad made for Xiao Shu? It’s…it’s…so unique!” Gu Qianjing used up all her rationality to control herself from complaining on the spot.

　　Where did this ugly thing come from?

　　Lin Mingqi put the paintbrush into the sink to clean it, endured it again and again, and finally sighed and turned around.

　　“This is Little Swallow!”

　　Gu Qianjing, “…If you hadn’t told me, I really wouldn’t have realized that Little Swallow has such a wide mouth?”

　　Lin Mingqi, “It… um…” and then gave up struggling. There was indeed no swallow with such a wide beak, but this was the shape of the kite. Who could he blame?

　　Uncle Yang passed by holding a purple clay teapot, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.

　　Xiao Shu tilted his head and looked carefully at the strange thing, which was completely different from the kites he saw on TV. Then he asked a soul-searching question:

　　Clipboard, “Dad, can it fly?”

　　Lin Mingqi carefully packed up his painting supplies and answered cautiously, “We’ll know if we can fly after we practice.”

　　Clipboard, “Why don’t you just make one that can fly?”

　　Gu Qianjing took out the tattered electric bike and waved to Xiaoshu, “Get on the bike, Xiaoshu. Dad has done his best. You should thank him.”

　　Lin Mingqi gave her a grateful glance.

　　Gu Qianjing, “If he could fly, he would have done it long ago. The current situation shows that he is not capable enough. Hey, get in the car, Xiaoshu, stand on the front step, and Lin Mingqi, you sit in the back.”

　　”I have to ride this?” Mr. Lin was so shocked that he didn’t even notice Gu Qianjing’s criticism of him for being “incompetent”. He looked at the electric car in front of him that could fall apart at any time and wondered if he really wanted to be so careless about his life?

　　Gu Qianjing made an impatient “tsk” sound, and Xiao Shu immediately climbed up the step and stood still.

　　Lin Mingqi, “How about I just drive over there?” Mr. Lin had never seen an alien creature like an electric car in his life.

　　Before Gu Qianjing could say anything, Uncle Yang came over holding a purple clay teapot and said, “The road beside the field is controlled, and cars can’t enter.”

　　Lin Mingqi turned his head and glanced at the back of Uncle Yang’s head. “Walking?”

　　Gu Qianjing raised her wrist and looked at her watch impatiently, “Tsk…”

　　Before Gu Qianjing could curse him as “pretentious”, Lin Mingqi tactfully got on the shabby little electric bike, and bent his long legs, which had nowhere to go, and placed them on the back pedals, looking like two praying mantis legs.
