After receiving this unexpected response from the person at the other end of the call, Lin Momo ran up to Lin Cheng still holding the cell phone and said excitedly, “Dad, someone wants to order food delivery from our restaurant!” 

Seeing Lin Momo’s excited look, the corner of Lin Yi’s mouth also raised in a curve.

“Okay, tell them what dishes we are serving tonight. Write down the dishes they want, how many, the time they need it to be delivered, and the address,” Lin Cheng reminded.

“Okay.”

Lin Momo ran outside again and carefully wrote down the order information of the customer on the phone just as Lin Cheng said.

Before Lin Momo could get over her excitement, another call came in—this person also called to order food delivery!

After that, Lin Momo received several phone calls one after another, all ordering food.

There were some repeat customers who have previously eaten their home-cooked stir fried dishes or bought lunch boxes from their small restaurant, and there were also some customers who received Lin Momo’s order card yesterday and now wanted to give it a try.

As it got closer to dinner time, more and more food orders were placed.

Lin Momo first recorded the order information of each caller on a small card, then arranged the cards according to the delivery address and meal time required by the customer, putting those that could be delivered on the same route together. The ones with late meal times were put last. Then she put numbers on the small cards, one by one.

… …

At 4 o’clock in the afternoon, the father and daughter put the prepared meals into environmentally-friendly lunch boxes and put them in order according to the number system Lin Momo devised. Then they borrowed a delivery box from the noodle shop owner next door and packed the lunch boxes inside. 

Now ready, the father and daughter team went off to deliver the orders.

The nearest orders were only near their Liuming Street, while the farthest orders were in communities located one or two kilometers away.

The father and daughter delivered the orders on foot, which was not very fast. Fortunately, the delivery times required by the customers were relatively scattered. Since they planned the route well, the customers’ meals would not be delayed.

[It feels like Daddy Lin and Baby Momo were given the LPG tanks delivery experience in the first episode to prepare them for this episode.]

Watching the father and daughter delivering meals in an orderly manner, some viewers expressed many emotions during the livestream. As soon as this comment was said, it quickly aroused quite a discussion:

[Haha, I think so too!]

[It’s amazing how you can deliver so many meal orders without it being chaotic!]

… …

Some people who have just entered the livestream channel raised different voices:

[After all, they are only recording for a show, so this shouldn’t be difficult.]

As soon as these words came out, other people quickly responded:

[No, I don’t think this is easy at all.]

[I also think that I won’t be able to handle it if you ask me to do it. ]

[This is probably the most realistic live reality show I have ever seen. It is indeed not easy. ]

[Haha, it’s easier said than done, you can go watch the livestreams of the other teams.]

[I didn’t see it, but I saw the hot search. It seemed that it was #Duanbei overturned#?]

Due to the intervention of Old Master Lin, the [Family Background] lottery for this week was real and what each team got was not necessarily tailor-made by the program team for them.

The result was that the other family teams didn’t ‘adjust’ very well at all.  The rich dad Zheng Chengye did his job as an [Aquarium Commentator] the way an owner of the aquarium would, so he got on the show’s hot search for some unsuitable behavior.

Gao Yuankai, the all-around dad, has adapted well to the work of [Advertising Planner], but the many demands of Party A¹ also gave this all-around dad a headache, and he had to work overtime almost every day.

The one who fell the most was Duan Bei. Although he got the largest number of orders in the entire sales center with the help of his many fans, because he was not familiar with the business and had a great many orders to deal with, Duan Bei was completely confused and got several items wrong when he was filling in the orders.

But probably the most surprising thing was the team of Bai Yulin.

In the beginning, everyone was looking forward to handsome Bai Yulin’s excellent work in the Michelin restaurant. But what happened was: Bai Yulin’s performance in the restaurant was not that good and even caused a lot of trouble for the head chef.

Therefore, fans of Bai Yulin could only repeatedly emphasize: cooking is not an easy task since the art requires special skills.

The Lin father and daughter team had no idea about the discussion happening in the livestream channel. They were focused on delivering the meal orders.

It was already 9pm when Lin Chen and Lin Momo finished delivering the last order.

On the way back, Lin Momo followed Lin Chen quietly.

While walking, Lin Momo fell behind little by little.

Realizing that Lin Momo was no longer beside him, Lin Chen looked down and realized that Lin Momo had fallen a few steps behind.

At this time, Lin Momo was visibly sleepy, and her eyelids were drooping more and more unconsciously. With only the last bit of willpower, she kept walking behind Lin Chen, even swaying a little. 

Even when Lin Cheng stopped, Lin Momo didn’t seem to notice and kept walking forward step by step.

Just as Lin Momo tripped over her left foot and was about to fall, Lin Cheng quickly caught her.

“Huh? Dad? Are we home?” Lin Momo looked around blankly, but did not see their small restaurant.

Seeing Lin Momo’s confused look, Lin Chen was both amused and a little distressed.

“Not yet, but you can continue to sleep for a while.” After saying that, Lin Chen leaned down and picked up his daughter who was already very sleepy.
