「The next day.」

Lin Feng got up at six o'clock in the morning.

He baked small buns for the children. Because they were light, he packed them all into a small bag. There were over forty of them, small enough for the children to eat in a single bite.

Besides that, he packed two pieces each of dried purple sweet potato and dried carrot. He also made chicken rice balls and wrapped them in aluminum foil. The last items were the small bottles of room-temperature fresh milk they had a subscription for, just enough for them to drink.

After distributing everything into their little backpacks, Lin Feng weighed them and, finding them light enough, let the children carry them.

"Is it heavy?"

The children shook their heads.

Dabao, the eldest, was stronger, so his bag had an extra bottle of fresh milk.

Sanbao had a smaller appetite and less strength, so Lin Feng specifically instructed her to eat the Fan Fan from one of her sibling's backpacks when it was time for lunch. Sanbao was a sensible and obedient child.

Then, the couple took their children to the school to assemble for their trip.

The preschool class had four sections, with about thirty children in each. One particularly conspicuous child had a backpack that looked heavy and full, and was even carrying extra food. In the end, Mr. Li spoke with the child's parents, and after removing several items, the little one's load was much lighter.

Zhang Yuxi adjusted her daughter's clothes. "Take care of yourselves, okay? Mommy will be waiting for you to come back."

Once everyone had gathered, the children set off on the bus.

Did they think that just because the children weren't coming home for lunch, there was nothing to do? The children's rooms at home were still awaiting renovation!

Because An Lan had been at home, the work had been on hold. After she left, the renovations began, one phase after another. The workers were all Boss Luo's men, all of whom had worked for Lin Feng before. They would come to renovate after the children went to school for their afternoon naps and would leave before they returned. Boss Luo still paid them for a full day's work. The renovation of the three rooms was estimated to take about a month, so they would definitely be ready for the New Year.

Lin Feng also prepared lunch for the workers. They devoured the food voraciously, exclaiming how incredibly delicious it was.

Back in their break room, they started discussing Lin Feng.

They realized that being born into wealth was truly a matter of skill. When the gap between people was too vast, feelings of envy or imbalance didn't even arise. How could you even begin to covet something so far beyond your reach?

Lin Feng went upstairs to bring them water and offer cigarettes.

「Meanwhile.」

After getting off the bus, the children lined up, holding hands as they headed out on their autumn excursion. Because they were all preschoolers and so young, they couldn't participate in activities as strenuous as the middle or senior classes. The excursion couldn't involve too much activity or go too far.

For the children, everything was a source of curiosity. After getting off the bus, they donned their little backpacks and followed their teacher into the countryside.

Tuan Tuan had a loud voice, so when she spoke, almost the entire class could hear her. She was quite the chatterbox—in fact, extraordinarily so.

Hand in hand with a friend, Tuan Tuan recalled their previous trip to the countryside.

"I saw a pig! A really, really big and stinky pig!"

The child next to her was astonished. "That big? Are pigs cute?"

Tuan Tuan thought for a moment, then shook her head.

"Not cute at all. They're huge, and they move around like this when they eat."

In videos and photos, pigs always looked so cute. Seeing her friend's disbelief, Tuan Tuan quickly called out to her brother.

"Sibao! Pigs are ugly and stinky, right?"

At that moment, Sibao was picking a wildflower by the roadside. He casually placed it in the hair of a little girl beside him. The girl, whose name was Tian Tian, smiled sweetly. "Thank you!"

Hearing Tuan Tuan's question, Sibao shouted back his answer.

"Yeah! Super ugly and stinky!"

Most of the children there had never seen a farm pig before. Their fond image of pigs instantly took a major hit.

They walked and played along the way until they reached a clearing. Mr. Li told the children to put down their backpacks, and they played a game of Eagle Catches Chickens, followed by Drop the Handkerchief. The little ones were overjoyed, each of them laughing like an angel.

Afterward, the teachers placed sweat towels on each child's back and let them rest for a while.

Then, it was time to eat!

Most parents had prepared milk and various kinds of bread for their children. It was convenient, easy to pack, and not heavy for the children to carry. Letting the children have a meal like this once in a while was no big deal. Only a few parents had prepared something more elaborate.

The most outstanding among them were Lin Feng's children.

They had rice balls, vegetables, milk, and buns, plus two cherry tomatoes for each of them. The rice balls Lin Feng had made were the size of the children's little fists and smelled wonderful.

Mr. Li wiped their hands with wet wipes. "Go on, eat up."

The surrounding children looked at their own bread and milk. Suddenly, their own food didn't seem so appealing.

Lin Feng hadn't made a lot, just enough based on the children's appetites. The teachers, worried that some parents might have packed too little, had brought extra lunch boxes just in case.

"Are there any little ones who aren't full? The teachers have more Fan Fan here!"

Sibao, who had just finished eating, immediately zipped over. Da Bao followed close behind, his eyes fixed eagerly on the food in the teacher's hand. Tuan Tuan, never one to miss out on the action, trotted over to join the fun.

The teachers were left speechless.

Other children gathered around as well. Some were genuinely hungry, while others just wanted to see what tasty things were available. The boxed lunches prepared by the teachers were all shared among the children.

In the class's group chat, the teachers would post periodic updates. Seeing the children's innocent and adorable smiling faces, the parents' hearts melted.

In the afternoon, parents were already waiting to pick up their kids before five o'clock. The buses pulled up slowly, one after another. As each child got off, a parent was there to meet them.

"Goodbye, teachers!"

"Goodbye, little ones!"

Lin Feng drove the children home.

"Did you have fun today?"

"Yes!"

"Did you all eat your fill?"

"Yes!"

It wasn't until they arrived home that Sanbao remembered the presents in her little backpack.

"Daddy, this stone is for you, and this flower is for Mommy."

The stone was very pretty and indeed eye-catching. But that wasn't the point. The point was that their little sweetheart had thought to bring back gifts for her Mommy and Daddy.

Ah, his sweet little daughter, San Bao!

Lin Feng picked up Sanbao and gave her a kiss. "Thank you, my darling. Daddy loves the stone very much!"

Sanbao hugged him tightly. "Sanbao loves Daddy and Mommy the most!"

Tuan Tuan had been watching silently from the side. After Sanbao left, she came over with her little backpack. She placed it on Lin Feng's lap, her eyes sparkling.

Lin Feng couldn't claim to know every single thing about his children, but he could guarantee he understood them better than anyone else. He quickly understood what Tuan Tuan wanted. "Do you want me to open your backpack?"

Tuan Tuan nodded, her expression filled with anticipation.

Lin Feng opened the backpack to find two candies inside, wrapped in very pretty paper.

Lin Feng asked, "Did a teacher give these to you?"

Tuan Tuan nodded.

Lin Feng asked softly, "And are they for Daddy and Mommy?"

Tuan Tuan nodded again.

Lin Feng cupped her little face. "Thank you, my treasure. Mwah!"

He kissed his daughter's forehead. Tuan Tuan actually blushed and hurriedly went to put her backpack away.
