The cute cub is weak and helpless, and does not want to become popular [Entertainment Circle]

the next afternoon.

The warm sunlight passed through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows and shone on the thick brown sofa cushions. Xiaolian and Tangtang were lying back to back, and they both slept very soundly.

The round face of the little lotus root was squeezed to make it more fleshy. It looked like a soft, delicious, steaming hot bun. The thin and thick eyelashes covered the face smoothly, and it was held in one hand into a small A fist rests on the side of the head, and the other hand is hidden in the quilt.

In his sleep, he strayed into a world of sweet and soft cakes.

The huge cake was like a pyramid, with many layers, and each layer had high steps. He slowly climbed up the steps.

The first layer of thick white cream is covered with strawberries, each one bigger than the head of a small lotus root.

Curious, Little Lotus grabbed a small strawberry seed and gently lifted it down. In an instant, bright red strawberry pulp gushed out, and the air was instantly filled with a strong aroma of strawberries.

The strawberry puree flowed onto the white cream, which also dyed the cream a lovely strawberry red.

ah!Don't let the strawberry puree drain, or the large strawberries will deflate like a balloon.

Xiao Ou cleverly pressed the strawberry seeds back, and sure enough, the strawberry pulp was blocked.

Little Lotus showed a satisfied and sweet smile.

The second layer is orange-yellow mango pulp, standing high and low on the white cream like square chess pieces.

Xiao Lotus poked the flesh of the nearest mango, retracted his hand, put it in his mouth and sipped it, it was very sweet, it was the best mango he had ever eaten!

As soon as Grandma Chen approached Xiaoou, she saw him biting his finger in his small mouth and sucking it all the time, with a bright smile on his face.

Xiao Lotus faintly heard something in his sleep, and frowned. He was struggling to climb up the steps, humming, and saw the oval-shaped kiwi fruit slices on the third layer of the cake...

Suddenly there was a soft call in the air.

"Little lotus root?"

Xiao Ou waved his small hand, trying to wave away the sound, he still wanted to continue to climb up to see what fruits were on it.

But in the next second, the huge cake suddenly disappeared in front of his eyes. Little Lotus seemed to have fallen from a high altitude. He opened his eyes suddenly in fright, and a kind face appeared in his hazy vision. Call softly: "Grandma..."

It turned out that it wasn't really a big cake, it was just a dream.

Xiao Ou felt a little lost in her heart.

Grandma Chen picked up the soft little lotus root and stroked his hot back: "Did you dream? Did you dream about delicious food?"

"Hmm." Xiaoou squeezed greasyly into grandma's arms, her head drooping, confused.

Tang Tang who was lying down also woke up, his first reaction was to straighten his head to look for Xiao Ou, seeing grandma hugging Xiao Ou and coaxing him, he hummed a few times to calm himself down, and stood up from the carpet.

Xiao Ou was hugged by grandma and washed her face, but she was still a little sleepy, lying lazily in grandma's arms, unwilling to move, feeling lazy, almost closing her eyes, and asked vaguely, "Grandma, where's Brother Xiaoke?"

Grandma Chen hugged him and sat on the sofa, picked up the warm water cup, and handed the straw to his mouth.

Xiaolian slightly opened her small mouth, squeezed the straw, and slowly sucked the warm water.

Grandma Chen said softly, "Xiao Ou forgot to sleep? Brother Xiao Ke went to find a job and said he was going home before dinner."

Xiaolian let go of the straw and remembered.

I heard brother Xiaoke say last night that when you find a job, you have to go to work every day to make money.

Grandma Chen put away the straw, slowly swayed her body to coax Xiaoou, and whispered softly, "Xiaoou, some uncles from the TV station just came and wanted to see you."

"Huh?" Xiaolian's thick eyelashes like a small brush bloomed instantly, revealing sober and surprised eyes, her voice was raised a bit, and she asked eagerly, "Did uncle find Xiaolian's parents?"

Grandma Chen shook her head: "Not yet, Xiaoou, don't worry. They are here to see Xiaoou."

"Oh." Xiao Ou rubbed her big eyes with her small hands, and yawned in a daze, her little head drooping on her grandma's shoulders, listless.

Grandma Chen smoothed Xiao Ou's curly hair, arranged his clothes, and carried him out.

After leaving the activity room, Xiao Ou saw piles of bags and many square boxes under the corridor outside the house.

There are bright orange patterns, pineapple patterns on the outside of the box, as well as mango, strawberry, kiwi...

Xiao Ou was surprised to find that all the fruits in the dream appeared?

Could it be that what he didn't see in his dream in time were big oranges and pineapples?

Xiao Ou asked in surprise, "Grandma, what is this?"

Grandma Chen bent down and put the lotus root on the ground, and explained: "It's two hundred catties of rice and fruit sent by the uncles of the TV station." She pointed to another big cardboard box, "There are some things for you and a few brothers in it." new clothes and trousers, and new skirts for my two sisters."

There are also two boxes of paper towels, one box of towels and bath towels, soap, shampoo and other daily hygiene products.

It has been a long time since the Lantian Orphanage received such complete and practical supplies.

Little Lotus stepped on his feet, touched the big cardboard box that was taller than him, and said in disbelief, "Really? Was it sent by a kind uncle?"

"It's true." Grandma Chen said with a smile, "Let's go, they are talking in your grandfather's study."

Xiao Ou trotted all the way into Grandpa's study.

The sound of grandpa talking to strangers came from the study, which seemed very lively.

Xiao Lotus leaned against the door frame, poking out her head quietly, her big round eyes were full of curiosity.

There was a handsome uncle wearing silver-rimmed glasses, wearing a loose and simple white shirt with the cuffs rolled up on the forearm, his profile looked particularly refined and refined, and his voice was slow and gentle.

In addition to this uncle, there is an older bearded uncle and a younger brother.

They are talking to Grandpa Chen.

Xiao Ou was watching curiously, the glasses uncle turned his head and showed a faint smile.

"Little lotus root?"

Ah, it was discovered!

Xiao Ou stepped forward shyly.

Grandpa Chen walked over to pick up Xiaoou, and introduced him to the uncle of the TV station with a smile.

Xiao Ou listened very carefully, and it turned out that the bearded uncle was Uncle Zhang Yuanming, the chief director of "Zaizai Going Forward"; the thin and handsome uncle with glasses was the producer of the show, Uncle Ye Nanzhou; the youngest was Brother Xiaoding.

Xiao Ou greeted them obediently, sat on Grandpa's lap, and looked at them carefully.

He thought, is it these uncles who gave them so many gifts?

The uncles are too nice.

He met his little fingers, and seeing everyone looking at him, he said softly, "Thank you uncle for giving us something."

Seeing that the child is so sensible, Ye Nanzhou and Zhang Yuanming looked at each other and smiled, and the latter said with a smile: "Xiao Ou is really sensible. It was all given by Uncle Ye, and Uncle Zhang hasn't delivered yet."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ou immediately looked at the handsome Ye Nanzhou, and obediently said, "Thank you, Uncle Ye."

"You're welcome."

Ye Nanzhou is the producer of the program group. After selecting the program contestants, he learned about Xiao Ou's situation from the staff and also learned that Xiao Ou's brother refused to continue recording the program. He made an appointment with Director Zhang and brought his assistant Xiao Ou Ding rushed over together.

Firstly, he wanted to communicate face-to-face with Grandpa Chen of the orphanage about Xiaoou's participation in the show, and secondly, he wanted to do his bit for the orphanage, so he asked Xiaoding to purchase some practical supplies in advance according to the orphanage's situation.

Just now, they have communicated in detail with Grandpa Chen about the basic situation of "Zai Zai Going Forward" from multiple angles.

This live broadcast program on the development of cute amateur babies was initiated by an anonymous sponsor with strong funds, and Jicheng TV was responsible for the planning and hosting.

The purpose is to select the five best children from many children, not limited to IQ, EQ, or special performance in a certain aspect, and provide them with lifelong educational support.

At the same time, the program does not have any commercial elements, there is no naming or advertisement insertion, and anonymous sponsors will be responsible for all expenses of the young contestants.

Moreover, considering Xiao Ou's situation, Ye Nanzhou proposed to hire Xiao Ke as an intern in the name of the TV station's program group, to take care of Xiao Ou and receive the intern's salary.

Because "Zai Zai Going Forward" is an elimination system, Ye Nanzhou told Grandpa Chen that no matter what stage Xiao Ou was eliminated, Xiao Ke can always practice at the TV station until the end of the summer vacation.

Ye Nanzhou was meticulous and thoughtful, taking into account Grandpa Chen's concerns from all aspects, explained in detail, and basically persuaded Grandpa Chen to agree to Xiao Ou's participation in the show.

However, what Grandpa Chen meant was that, after all, it was Xiao Ou who participated in the show, and he still had to agree.

Xiao Ou listened to Brother Xiao Ding's patient explanation of the program, and then raised his own little question.

"Brother Xiaoding, will there be many, many children playing with Xiaoou?"

Xiao Ding sat on the stool pushed by Grandma Chen, approached Xiao Ou and said, "Yes, there will be a lot at first. Then we will have various small competitions. The audience watching your competition can vote, and the children who get the most votes Then you can enter the next level of the game." Worried that Xiao Ou could not understand, he explained, "The competition will not be difficult, just like some children's games you usually play, some are played by yourself, and some are played with others. "

"Is it like this?" Xiao Ou scratched his little ears, but no concrete concept had formed in his little head. He thought of another thing, but he didn't know whether to ask.

Ye Nanzhou on the side was very keen to capture the child's heart, and said to Xiao Ou: "Xiao Ou, if you continue to participate in the show, your parents will have more opportunities to see you on TV."

Xiao Ou stared straight at this mature and elegant uncle, his eyes were full of star-like anticipation: "Is it true?"

Seeing that Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen didn't stop them, Director Zhang followed and said, "Little lotus, if you participate in the show, there will be many uncles who will support other children in your orphanage to improve food and environment, so that everyone can feel at ease Go to school."

Xiao Ou raised her head slowly, her dark eyes looked at the ceiling where debris occasionally fell, her little fingers scratched the hair on her ear temples, she looked at her grandpa and then at her grandma, as if she let herself make a decision.

He mustered up the courage to look at Uncle Ye in front of him, and said softly, "Xiao Ou wants to participate in the show."

Ye Nanzhou nodded with a smile: "Okay, Xiaoou is welcome."

Xiaoding took the opportunity to rub Xiaolian's hair. This little boy is soft, almost as cute as a doll: "Xiaolian will be very popular!"

Xiao Ou hugged Grandpa's arm happily and shyly.

When the TV station's uncle left, Xiao Ou sent them off with his grandparents.

Ye Nanzhou walked slowly in front of Xiaolian, bent down and asked this mild-tempered but very tempered little guy: "Xiaolian, can uncle hug you?"

Xiao Ou likes the gentle Uncle Ye, he seems like a very nice person.

He pursed his lips and smiled shallowly, raised his head obediently, and stretched out his hand: "Uncle hugs Xiaolian."

Ye Nanzhou hugged the soft baby, his usually calm eyes were full of warmth.

He walked in front with Xiaoou in his arms. Assistant Xiaoding and Director Zhang whispered: "Brother Zhou really likes children. It would be great if his own child is still here."

Those who are close to Ye Nanzhou on the TV station know that there is a blank photo frame on Ye Nanzhou's desk, and there is only a number of years, months and days in the photo frame, which is to commemorate the unborn child.

But no one knew exactly how the child disappeared, and no one dared to inquire about Ye Nanzhou's past.

Ye Nanzhou is not from this city. He came here a few years ago because of his work. He lives here alone, without father, mother, relatives or relatives.

Director Zhang's eyes fell on the backs of one big and one small, sighed softly, and said to Xiao Ding in a low voice: "Don't mention it in the past, don't look at Xiaoye's vigorous and resolute performance on stage, in fact, his heart is soft."

Xiao Ding nodded, feeling regretful in his heart. According to the date in the photo frame, if Brother Zhou's child was still there, it would be the size of Xiao Ou by now.

The little lotus root was held by Uncle Ye, and walked in the big yard of the orphanage, pointing here and there with the little finger, introducing the flowers, plants, scenery and things of the orphanage to Uncle Ye in great detail.

For four-year-old Xiao Ou, this is his whole world, and he is very happy to introduce it to new friends.

Ye Nanzhou saw that Tang Tang had been following them, and lowered his head to rub Tang Tang's head, but Tang Tang raised his paw and slipped away, walking forward along the bluestone slab.

Xiao Ou covered her mouth and smiled secretly: "Tang Tang doesn't like being touched by strangers, uncle."

"Really?" Ye Nanzhou looked at Xiao Ou's innocent and lovely smile, as if he had tasted some sweet food, and his heart became sweeter.

Xiao Ou leaned close to Uncle Ye to observe his glasses, and saw from the side that the eyes behind the lenses were extremely beautiful, and the eyelashes were also very long and dense. In the blink of an eye, it was like a crow's feathers flapping.

Uncle's eyelashes are the same as mine, long.

Walking to the blue iron gate of the orphanage unknowingly, Ye Nanzhou put down Xiaolian, squatted on the ground to help him straighten his collar, and said softly: "Little lotus, uncle went back today, after a day, you and brother Xiaoke Come to Taiwan to record the show. Don't forget uncle, okay?"

"Yeah! Little Lotus root will never forget." Little Lotus root raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, and he stretched out his little finger: "Uncle, let's pull the hook. Little Lotus root will not forget Uncle, and uncle must not forget Little Lotus root."

Ye Nanzhou hooked Xiaolian's little hand, and tugged gently: "Okay."

Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen were very happy to see that the producer of the TV station liked Xiao Ou so much. After all, if he really went to record the show, someone had to take care of Xiao Ou. Looking at Ye Nanzhou's situation now, he should not be wronged .

Xiao Ou rested her small hand on the iron railing, watching the backs of her uncles with big eyes.

When they got into the car, Uncle Ye turned around and looked over.

Xiao Ou quickly raised her little hand, waved it, and said loudly, "Uncle, Xiao Ou will remember you!"

Ye Nanzhou also smiled and waved, then got into the car.

As the car drove away, Xiao Lotus kept staring at her. She moved slowly to Grandma's leg in small steps, hugged Grandma's leg, and muttered, "Grandma, Uncle Ye is doing well."

"Yes." Grandma Chen turned around to look at the supplies under the corridor, at least four or five thousand.

She had inquired with Xiao Ding just now, and Ye Nanzhou bought them all out of his own pocket. Anyway, he is a very kind person.

In the evening, the orphanage became lively.

Xiao Ou's brothers and sisters all came home from school, chatting around the various supplies in the hall.

In the orphanage, except for Xiao Ou, the other children are all surnamed Chen.

The oldest ones are Xiaoke and Chen Jingke, the boys are Chen Jingming who is in the second grade of junior high school, Chen Jingwen the first grader wearing glasses, Chen Jingxu who is in the sixth grade, and the girls have sisters Chen Jinghan and Chen Jingyu who are in the first grade and fifth grade respectively. grade.

Several children were called nicknames when they were young, but when they went to school, Grandpa Chen changed them to their official names.

At this moment, the older Chen Jingming was looking at the new clothes with Xiaoou in his arms, and asked with concern: "Xiaoou, can we see you on TV? What channel is it?"

Xiao Lotus sat on her brother's lap, dangling her brother's neck with both hands, and shook her head in a daze: "Xiao Lotus doesn't know."

"Xiao Ou doesn't know either?" Elder sister Chen Jinghan imitated his immature tone, rubbing Xiao Ou's face with a smile, "Our Xiao Ou is so cute, it must be very popular on the show."

The round-headed Chen Jingxu picked up the new clothes allotted to him and asked Xiao Ke: "Brother Xiao Ke, when will the show be on? I will let my classmates watch it together. They have heard that I have a very cute My younger brother wants to see Xiaoou."

Xiao Ke sat on the side and sorted out items such as tissues and towels.

He was actually quite worried, but he didn't show it in front of his younger siblings. He just said, "I'll take Xiaoou over in a few days to find out the situation."

"Yeah." Chen Jingwen, who was wearing glasses, nodded and told him like an adult, "Brother Xiaoke, you have to protect Xiaoou, you understand?"

"Understood!" Xiao Ke threw him a large pack of tissues, "You all have to prepare for the final exam recently, don't get distracted. I will take care of Xiaoou."

Leaning in his brother's arms, Xiao Ou smiled and said to everyone, "Come on for the exam!"

"Little lotus root, too!" Chen Jingwen put away the tissue, then raised his hand, making a vigorous gesture of cheering.

Xiaolian imitated Brother Xiaowen's appearance, and raised her little arm seriously: "Yeah! Come on, little lotus!"

Seeing Sister Xiaoyu coming out after changing into a new dress, he clapped his hands happily and said, "Sister Xiaoyu is pretty."

Chen Jingyu is 11 years old this year, with a melon-seeded face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a bit heroic.

She blushed when Xiao Ou praised her, and scratched Xiao Ou's waist.

Little lotus writhed in his brother's arms, giggling and itching.

Everyone was making a fuss happily. At first, Xiao Ke wanted to stop him, but he was pushed together to make a fuss.

The activity room was full of laughter and laughter.

Grandma Chen came in with two plates of fresh fruit, and said with a smile, "Okay, stop making trouble and eat some fruit."

"Eat fruit~" The cheers echoed in every corner of the orphanage.

Little lotus root was hugged by brother Xiao Ke and sat on the bench, biting a big sweet and sour strawberry in his small mouth.

He looked at the smiling faces of his brothers and sisters around him, and thought to himself: It turns out that some dreams will really come true.

very nice.

So can he have another dream?

In the dream, his parents will appear on the TV program, so that he can participate in the program and play with other children, and find his parents.

The little lotus root grabbed the small green leaf of a strawberry, opened its mouth wide, and bit the tip of the strawberry in one bite:

Well, I have to go to bed early today, so I can dream all night~
