Single Mom Goes Viral After Bringing Her Kids on a Variety Show

Please add my upcoming novel, "The Top-Tier Star's Ancestor Is a Max-Level Toddler!" to your collection!

Zheng Shumo, who has been vilified across the internet, takes her daughter Yaoyao on the parenting variety show "A Family of Three."

Netizens assume that, as an orphaned single mother without a man by her side, she'll have a miserable time on the show: sleeping on the streets, going hungry, losing every game...

But then, during the livestream...

A Kuan, a young guest who pinches every penny when it comes to his parents, hands over all the money he painfully earned from doing tasks to Yaoyao so she can buy meat. When she refuses, he looks downright unhappy.

Ranran, who has been a germaphobe since childhood, dives headfirst into a filthy mud puddle, just so little Yaoyao can enjoy winning a game.

The host, who dresses like the Black-Faced Judge of Hell, keeps sneaking fresh fruit and strawberry cake to Yaoyao's door late at night, leaving a note that says, "Sweetie, remember to be happy today too," before quietly slipping away.

The troublemaking director, who likes to praise one person by putting another down, gets lectured by a stern-faced little girl and tearfully promises never to do it again.

The little girl everyone worried about turns out to be the show's beloved darling, doted on by everyone.

Someone notices that three young guests, like bodyguards, are always following the little girl and asks, "Who are they to you?"

The little girl beams proudly. "Ranran walks my dog, A Kuan carries my flowers, and Guanguan helps me find a future dad."

The audience looks at Guanguan's uncle, movie star Xu, and sees him gazing at Zheng Shumo with a smile tugging at his lips.

The audience: Oh no, I think I accidentally started shipping them!

Later, when her ex-husband Xiao Lianghan sees how popular the show is, he brazenly shows up under the pretext of visiting his daughter, just to ride on its success.

The audience is disgusted and terrified that Zheng Shumo will get into a fight with Xiao Lianghan and traumatize little Yaoyao.

But Yaoyao suddenly rushes into the frame and shields Zheng Shumo, snapping, "Uncle, Mom has found her happiness. Please never show up again!"

Xiao Lianghan, her biological father, has just been called "Uncle": ?

The audience is thrilled: Does this count as making their relationship official through the kid?

By the end of the show, the audience finally realizes that Zheng Shumo, whom they thought was an unfeeling, arrogant, spoiled, diva-like fool blinded by love, is actually a shy, stubbornly proud, hopelessly clueless woman who'd rather die than speak honestly. They'd misunderstood her all along.

And it seems all the truths were "accidentally" revealed by her daughter?

Netizens: Another day of kneeling to apologize to my wife and goddaughter.

Yaoyao: I couldn't protect Mom properly in my previous life. This time, I'll be her armor!

(PS: Yaoyao is reborn, with memories from her previous life up to the age of eight.)

Upcoming novel: "The Top-Tier Star's Ancestor Is a Max-Level Toddler!"

Question: You were once a battle-hardened female general with countless military achievements, but you've been reborn as an adorable little toddler in the modern world. What do you do?

Oh, and you brought along a huge treasure vault.

Answer: Cute and loaded, sweet and mighty~

In her previous life, Zong Ying arranged a marriage for her eldest legitimate grandson, Zong Yi. He had someone he loved, but silently accepted her decision. He never had children, and Zong Ying only learned of her grandson's stubbornness and devotion just before she died. She regretted it, but too late.

After arriving in the modern world, she discovers that her eldest grandson is a serious-faced celebrity, and that she is his three-and-a-half-year-old younger sister.

Then Zong Ying has a dream. She sees her eldest grandson taking her on a parenting show, where the brother and sister next door steal all their luck, leaving them as the most miserable contrast pair. Zong Yi is even blacklisted across the internet and dies of depression.

Zong Ying: What nonsense! I'm going to help my eldest grandson defy fate and take first place!

And so...

During an archery game...

Before the other teams have even drawn their bows, Zong Ying is already trotting over on her little legs, leaping onto a horse and firing three arrows in a row. Every one hits the target.

During a physical challenge...

Zong Ying is far ahead, but keeps turning back to wait for the cameraman. Eventually, not wanting to waste time she could spend helping her eldest grandson win first place, she hoists the camera and runs off with it. "You seemed pretty energetic last night. Why are you so useless during the day?"

The cameraman, who sees his long-distance girlfriend once a year, last night: ...You're actually pretty nice, you know.

During a family shoot...

The lucky sister next door buys her little brother the most expensive smartwatch, the most expensive Lego set, and the most expensive model car.

Zong Ying: That's it?

She waves, and the staff bring out four, five, six, seven, eight... nine boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry. With the air of a magnate, she declares, "Xiao Yi, I'll build you a mountain of gold one of these days. We can roll around on it."

Later, the girl Zong Yi had deeply loved in ancient times appears on the show.

Zong Ying is moved to tears. At last, she can make up for her regret!

Sitting in the parents' section, she excitedly points to the girl and tells Zong Yi, "Dear grandson, do you see her? She's the granddaughter-in-law Grandma picked out for you. What do you think?"

Everyone else wears an unmistakable look of anticipation.

Zong Yi's face turns black as a cooking pot. He straps her into a baby high chair and finally snaps:

"Zong Ying, have you forgotten that you're the kid who's being looked after?"

Things get pretty tense for a while.

Zong Ying's old-fashioned manner and the way she frets over her top-tier star brother's marriage make them an internet sensation.

Their agent... their agent looks like he has a massive headache.

I told you to behave yourselves, but I didn't tell you to put on such a show that the national teams keep coming to block the studio entrance!

Mainly about the bond between a grandmother and grandson, who are siblings in this life.

Theme: I'll be Mom's little armor!
