Me at two years old, a queen!

"Cuckoo~"

As soon as Lu Junxing got out of the RV, he saw the troublemaker running towards him with an old hen in her arms. Before he could dodge, the chicken was unexpectedly placed in her arms, which startled Lu Junxing so much that he quickly let go.

"Where did the chicken come from?"

"Dad! Why are you giggling like that?"

Before the chicken could react, An'an swiftly grabbed it from the ground, saying, "Cluck, cluck, my darling~, this is our daddy~"

"We still need him to support us, so let's forgive him, okay?"

Wang Jinbao, who was carrying the last few bags of things, came over and saw An'an holding up an old hen and demanding an apology from Lu Junxing. He immediately asked curiously, "Oh, what's going on?"

"Why are you even putting work on the old hen? You guys really know how to have fun!"

Lu Junxing then realized what was happening, reached out and took the hen from the troublemaker's hand, fearing that it was another one that the troublemaker had secretly caught from somewhere when they weren't paying attention.

"Where did you get this old hen?"

"I bought it! This is a really good chicken. Look at its legs, you can tell it's a free-range chicken! It's much better than the factory-farmed chickens we usually eat!"

Wang Jinbao took the old hen from Lu Junxing, skillfully tied its feet, and proudly showed An'an and her father the benefits of this chicken:

"My mom keeps several of them in the backyard of my villa. I'll send you a few later!"

Seeing An'an looking at the hen with worried expressions, and thinking that the young girl was probably kind-hearted, he explained further:

"This free-range chicken likes to be tied up because it runs around in the mountains all the time. After finally coming down the mountain, it just wants to rest! It's okay~ Don't be fooled by its current dead look, this chicken actually really likes to be tied up like this!"

An'an was relieved. Zhuangzhuang, seeing that Shen Yu and the others had left, anxiously pulled Ji Jianshu back, saying, "Let's hurry up and leave too! We're the last ones left!"

After they finished packing, Lu Junxing rushed ahead of Wang Jinbao and got into the driver's seat first, while Ji Jianshu, who had picked up a few plants to make specimens, got in last:

"This chicken?"

Ji Jianshu was surprised to see An'an holding a live chicken and feeding it potato chips. He wondered why she was raising chickens: "An'an? This chicken can't eat potato chips! Shouldn't it eat feed?"

Ji Jianshu had never raised chickens before, so he looked at Wang Jinbao, who was tilting his head and changing the TV channel, to confirm: "Right?"

"It's alright~, this chicken is going to be eaten either tomorrow or the day after, so let it enjoy itself for a while! It's fine!"

These words immediately surprised the three children, who exclaimed in unison, "Huh? Is this chicken for eating?"

"Nonsense! Otherwise, why would I buy it? This chicken costs 150 yuan!"

Upon hearing this, An'an and Zhuangzhuang even withdrew their little hands that were stroking "Giggle's" fur.

Wang Jinbao, engrossed in tinkering with the television, completely forgot about protecting the children's young minds and bluntly stated:

"Let me tell you! These free-range chickens eat nothing but insects from the mountains and leftovers from home all day long. Their meat is so firm, so delicious, and so nutritious. If we come across them, we have to get some to eat, right?"

Upon hearing this, even An'an and Zhuangzhuang forgot about the "giggle" in their hands and immediately each leaned on one side of Wang Jinbao, asking, "Really? How delicious is it?"

Ji Jianshu: "Why are free-range chickens more nutritious?"

This was the first time Wang Jinbao had ever received such a warm welcome. He even forgot about the television and, with his legs crossed, began telling the children about the chickens his family raised when he was a child:

"Back then, when we were kids, every household raised chickens, but we couldn't bear to eat them, especially the old hens. We had to keep them to lay eggs, and those eggs were a source of income for the family. Even if we didn't eat them ourselves, they were still nutritious!"

"The chickens in this countryside are all free-range. Everyone knows whose chicken this is. These chickens are also smart. They are let out in the morning and will go out to catch insects to eat. When it's time to sleep at night, they will come back on their own."

"Basically, we just collect eggs and clean the chicken coop every day. When we have holidays, we'll go to the mountains with our cousins ​​to catch wild pheasants, roast them over a fire, and then go home after wiping our mouths clean!"

"..."

Even Zhuangzhuang was hearing these words for the first time. After all, Zhuangzhuang had only spent a few days in his hometown during the Spring Festival, and his memories of life in the rural hometown were not very deep.

The children listened quietly and attentively as Wang Jinbao recounted his stories of life in the countryside, gradually developing a longing and curiosity about rural life in the past.

Zhuangzhuang: "I really want to go to the mountains to pick wild fruits and climb trees too!"

An'an: "I also want to plant peanuts, roast sweet potatoes, and even steal watermelons to eat!"

Ji Jianshu: "I also want to catch dragonflies and bamboo worms. I've never seen real ones before. I also want to see how swallows build their nests! Do they really make their homes in other people's houses?"

"Hahaha~, if you have the chance in the future, I'll take you to my hometown to experience it!"

Even Lu Junxing, who was driving in front, felt the comfort and freedom of rural life. He thought that it was not unreasonable for the old man to want to go back to the countryside where he used to live in recent years.

When they arrived, Duoduo and Yangyang's families were already there. Seeing her friends come down, Duoduo led them around the tents.

The adults were discussing how to make the best use of the supplies they had bought over the next few days. With these things, they no longer needed to be at Jiang Jun's beck and call, and they planned to make the most of these days.

Meanwhile, Jiang Jun was squatting on the ground, helplessly scolding them for their crickets, and heartlessly refusing to provide any food or supplies.

Shen Shaocheng and the others casually distributed the tents that the production team had set up to each other.

Duo Duo: "This is the stove we'll use for cooking!"

Yangyang: "There's also a beautiful lake there. Duoduo's dad said we can use the water in there to bathe and wash vegetables!"

"..."

Zhuangzhuang: "Wow~, it's all sand here~, you guys on the show must be so much fun! I'm so glad I made it!"

Before Shen Yu and the others could even wander around and play, Zhuangzhuang was already restlessly playing in the sand outside. He even took off his shoes and stomped around in the sand in the shade of the tent, saying, "There's so much sand, we could build a big castle for all of us!"
