The fans were heartbroken. They couldn’t sit still anymore and felt that they had to do something.
Their daughter had already donated money to the orphanage, but she had donated the only 100 yuan she had. They could not sit back and do nothing!
Hence, they immediately started crowd-funding. They raised tens of thousands of yuan with five yuan and ten yuan from each of them. They then donated all the money to the local charity fund under Su Jiu’s name and asked them to send the money to the orphanage.
It was almost winter, so it was time to put some warm clothes on these children. The children who were ill should also be treated.
If their daughter knew, she would definitely be happy!
After Su Shengjing went back, he donated half his earnings from the previous episode.
He did not make it public, but the orphanage thanked him for his donation on their newly opened Weibo account. Only then did the netizens find out that he had donated 300,000 yuan in one go. He did not say much, but his actions were sincere, which earned him favor in the eyes of the netizens.
Moreover, he had taught Little Jiu really well. Not only was she obedient and sensible, but she was also kind-hearted. If she wasn’t a little angel, what was she?
Many mothers left comments on Su Shengjing’s Weibo, asking him to write a book about how he had raised his child. It would sell like crazy!
The other fathers were also moved by the children in the orphanage, and all of them donated money to it. When this reached the news, many other netizens also spontaneously donated money. Some hospitals even said that they could treat the sick and disabled children in the orphanage for free. Many volunteers saw that the director was old and wanted to help.
Just like that, the lives of the children in that orphanage suddenly became smooth sailing.
The children were also very sensible. They knew that the orphanage director was getting on in years. The older children would take the initiative to share the burden and take care of her instead. The younger ones hardly cried or made a fuss. They learned from their older siblings how to wash up and eat, trying not to trouble others.
This was not enough. This matter went on Central TV’s news. The show “Daddy, Let’s Go” was praised there. The reporters said that it promoted the virtue of caring for the lives and the disadvantaged. This made Yang Fangping very happy.
He had not expected that the media would praise him just because he had made a proper variety program! Furthermore, this was an entertainment program!
He was very proud of it. Hence, in the next few days, he went to the broadcasting station every day and arrogantly walked without acknowledging anyone.

The fathers and the children returned from the orphanage in the evening in low spirits. When they returned to the village and saw the sumptuous dinner prepared by the production team, they felt better.
The return trip on the next day meant that the first season of “Daddy, Let’s Go” was over. The fathers and children were quite reluctant to part, but Yang Fangping was even more reluctant.
Sigh! The guests I invited this time must have all been sent from heaven. He suddenly had a lot of confidence in the second season!
After dinner, the production team did not assign any more tasks. Instead, they gathered the few fathers and children together for a small party to improvise a show.
Almost all the fathers sang a song with their children or recited a few poems. In the end, the production team gave everyone sparklers. After lighting it up, they danced in circles with cheerful music.
Han Siye dawdled for a while before lighting up his sparklers. He ran to Su Jiu’s side. When he saw that her sparkler was almost done burning, he passed his one to her. “Here, this is for you!”
Su Jiu looked at the arrogant little boy and could not help but smile. “Thank you, Big Brother!”
Her sweet smile made Han Siye’s mood so good that he almost couldn’t find his bearings. He realized that if Little Jiu was happy, he would be happy too!
