Chapter 411: Chapter 411: The Big Toy

Happiness is often built on others’ foundations, and Mo Jingchun felt this was absolutely true.

However, this scope should be broader.

For instance, right now on the dining table, there’s a big pot of rich old hen soup.

Mo Jingchun and Candy, having some old hen soup, were very happy. Even Bun and Little Grey closed their eyes contentedly.

Only the old hen struggled all the way, wishing she could borrow another pair of wings from God.

Unfortunately, she eventually couldn’t escape Wild Wolf’s big hand.

With a swift chop, the chicken’s head fell to the ground.

Honestly speaking, it was Mo Jingchun’s first time seeing a chicken killed this way.

In Mo Jingchun’s impression, isn’t it supposed to be just gently slit the trachea?

Fortunately, no one was interested in the old hen’s head, so chopped off it was; no one would eat it anyway.

Believe it or not, the chicken head that fell to the ground, even Little Grey sniffed it and walked away shaking his head.

“Burp～”

After having two bowls of chicken soup, the little guy leaned motionlessly against the dining chair.

With his little hands holding his round belly, he looked just like a wealthy old man.

“Brother, I’m full～”

“Hmm～ no, I’m full from drinking.” This time he got it right, the little guy nodded with a cheeky grin.

Eating tasteless old hen meat, Mo Jingchun glanced at Little Candy and said:

“If you don’t eat, what if you get hungry tonight?”

“There’s bread.”

Bread indeed, Mo Jingchun couldn’t help rolling his eyes.

“Fine, just don’t wake me up later tonight.”

With Little Candy’s cleverness, she certainly wouldn’t go hungry.

There were people on night duty outside, all she had to do was stand at the door and call, no more worry about food.

At the end of May, the weather was getting hotter, yet the weather report still stubbornly showed 35°.

Indoors, there was the coolness under the central air conditioning.

Outdoors, it was the scorching heat and the sound of cicadas.

However, at night, listening to the cicadas while sitting in the yard enjoying the cool was quite comfortable.

The only annoying thing was the abundance of mosquitoes.

Also, phones were a no-go, as it might attract all the bugs around.

“Boss, the county has invited you to attend the groundbreaking ceremony for Metro Line 1 the day after tomorrow.”

Mo Jingchun, who was reading a book, nodded and said:

“I know.”

Though it’s called Line 1, it’s actually a loop line, and likely won’t be expanded in the future.

Thinking of the metro construction, Mo Jingchun slightly smiled. If the metro showed no progress, he would have asked Qin Yuzhu about it.

Good relations don’t mean you can get something for nothing.

Seeing the boss so calm, Xia Xiaomin was not surprised at all.

Though she’d never heard it directly from others, Xia Xiaomin knew that Huo County, a once unknown little town, being able to build a metro was obviously related to Candy Technology.

And the real reason was the boss, Mo Jingchun.

In the afternoon, it was time for the little one to come home from school.

Walking in with bold, prideful strides was the little guy.

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was the unwavering line that Mo Jingchun never tired of hearing.

“Brother, I’m back.”

Just about to put down her little schoolbag, Candy was startled when she saw Little Grey’s even more swollen head next to the couch.

“Oh dear, how come Little Grey looks more swollen again?”

“Wasn’t he already better yesterday?”

What’s happening, her head buzzing.

Candy cautiously petted Little Grey, who stood up and wagged his tail at her, then tilted her head to look at her brother.

“Brother, what happened here.”

“Could it be he got bitten by a snake again.”

Mo Jingchun, deep in thought, glanced over and casually said:

“Little Grey had it coming, let your beloved Bun teach him a lesson.”

Bun, who was sleeping with closed eyes, sensed something was off when his name was called.

Just as he opened his eyes, ready to spring up, he met the displeased gaze of his little master.

“Bun!”

“How could you bully an invalid!”

Pinned against the couch, Bun wore an innocent look.

Mo Jingchun slightly smirked and interjected:

“Ahem, Little Grey was pestering Bun without reason.”

For a moment, Little Candy, who was about to scold Bun, was speechless.

In kindergarten, if anyone dared hit her, she would hit back.

Thinking it over, it seemed like Little Grey really was asking for it.

Unable to back down gracefully, Little Candy huffed as if giving herself a way out.

“Hmph!”

Meeting Bun’s innocent eyes, Mo Jingchun shrugged.

May 27th, the 10th day of the fourth lunar month.

Suitable for weddings, travel, cleaning, moving houses, signing contracts, trading, moving into new houses, business openings, ground-breaking ceremonies, prayers, setting beds, funerals, installing doors, hanging plaques, offering sacrifices, demolitions, fire exits, adopting children, lighting, breaking ground, childbearing, roof beams,

land thanksgiving.

Totally unrestricted!

It was a Saturday, and after getting Candy out of bed, under Mo Jingchun’s constant urging, the group finally left the house a little after eight.

Xia Xiaomin mentioned that provincial leaders would also come today.

Not to mention city and county leaders.

Such being the case, if he were late and missed the prime groundbreaking time, it would be very disrespectful.

He feared some would say Mo Jingchun was putting on airs.

For those mindful, listeners would be the same.

In the back seat, Little Candy covered her mouth, yawning repeatedly.

“Brother, is building the metro fun?”

“There’s an excavator.”

“Excavator?” Little Candy’s eyes sparkled.

“Yes, not only an excavator, but also a bulldozer.”

“And a particularly large toy that can drill holes.”

Instantly the little one was all spirited.

If her brother said so, she was definitely game!

A big toy that can drill holes, what’s that?

Sounded fun just thinking about it, she felt thrilled.

“GO! GO! GO!” The little guy waved her fists; if not for being secured by the seatbelt in the child safety seat, she would’ve danced in the car.

On the outer ring of the east side of town, there used to be a textile factory.

Called a factory, in reality, it was a small workshop that, at its peak, employed just over a hundred temporary workers.

The former factory had already been demolished two years ago, leaving a desolate site.

At this moment, the area was packed with people.

Attendees of the groundbreaking ceremony, townsfolk who heard of the metro construction and came out of curiosity, and the corporation contracted to build the metro.

The place was surrounded by crowds, layer upon layer.

Getting off the car, Little Candy saw so many people not sleeping in on Saturday, her eyes widened like lanterns.

“Brother, are they all here to see the big toys～”

Before Mo Jingchun could say anything, the little guy answered her own question:

“Sure enough, everyone loves big toys.”

The next second, she was captivated by the neatly arranged excavators.

Those bright big eyes sparkled under the sunlight.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, all the sky is filled with little stars…
