Chapter 489 Let’s Move
After playing in the threshing ground until dark, the children were called back by their parents to have dinner, and Liu Wangxue and the others were also preparing to go home.
After leaving the threshing ground and walking to the fork in the road, Jinghe received a call from Shen Nian'an. It turned out that he saw that the two children had not returned home at such a late hour, so he went to pick them up from Liu Wangxue's place, but when he arrived, he found that both gates were locked, so he called Jinghe to ask.
After hanging up the phone, Jinghe took Youyou, Liu Wangxue, Xu Qingsong and the three little ones back to meet Shen Nian'an first.
Youyou held Jinghe's hand and walked slower and slower until she came under a dim street light. Finally, she couldn't hold on any longer and said, "Brother, I'm so tired."
Jinghe let go of Youyou's hand and squatted down in front of him: "Come, brother will carry you."
"Okay." Youyou rubbed her eyes and raised her hands to lie on Jinghe's back.
Xu Qingsong handed Xiaoci in his arms to Liu Wangxue and said to Jinghe, "Let me hold him. I think he feels sleepy." It is safer to hold him.
Jinghe looked back at Youyou and saw that he was about to raise his hand to rub his eyes again, so he quickly took his little hand down: "Don't rub your eyes if your hands are dirty. Let Uncle Xu hold you first, Daddy will be here soon."
"Okay." Youyou stretched out her hand to Xu Qingsong. Either way was fine. He really didn't want to move a step now. "Thank you, uncle."
"You're welcome." Xu Qingsong bent down, pinched Youyou's armpits and picked youyou up.
As soon as Youyou was in his arms, she hugged his neck, rested her little head on his shoulder, and seemed to fall asleep instantly.
Liu Wangxue reached out and tested Youyou's forehead. The temperature was normal. She had just played with the group of kids and her forehead was covered with sweat. She had already helped wipe it off, but now a thin layer of sweat had appeared again.
She took out her handkerchief and gently wiped him again, then put the hood of Youyou's down jacket on him. It was a bit windy, so she was afraid he would catch a cold. "You exercised too much today, so you must be very tired."
Jing He said: "He had to catch a flight in the morning, so he got up early, and he didn't sleep much on the plane."
The adult sitting next to me also brought a child who was about the same age as Youyou. The two children got along very well, sharing snacks, playing games, and chatting. Almost four hours of the trip passed in this way. After getting off the plane, the two children even exchanged small gifts.
The child's parent was deeply moved. He was prepared to apologize continuously along the way because his child would cry whenever he got on a plane. He couldn't buy train or high-speed rail tickets for this trip and had to take a plane. Unexpectedly, he met a little kid who got along well with him and had a safe journey.
After walking a short distance forward, I saw Shen Nian'an walking towards me.
Shen Nian'an also saw them and quickened his pace.
After walking closer and saying hello, Xu Qingsong handed Youyou to Shen Nian'an: "I was tired from playing and fell asleep."
Shen Nian'an hugged Youyou and touched his forehead. He said to Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong, "I was wondering why you hadn't returned home when it was already dark. It turns out you went out to play. Sorry for causing trouble for you."
"No way," Liu Wangxue said with a smile, "Jinghe was about to take Youyou back home, but Pengpeng insisted on dragging him over to play. If that's the case, then we are the ones who are causing trouble for Jinghe."
Jinghe smiled a little embarrassedly.
Shen Nian'an touched his head, then stood and chatted with Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong for a few more words, and then said, "Then we'll go home first and get together another day."
"Okay," Liu Wangxue waved at them, "If you are free in the next two days, come to my place with my sister-in-law for tea. The sun room is upstairs now, with a great view. It's very pleasant to bask in the sun and chat."
"Okay." Shen Nian'an responded.
After they said goodbye, Jinghe squatted down and hugged Pengpeng again: "I'll come to play with you another day."
She rubbed her head against his chest, then turned around and followed Liu Wangxue back.
After returning to the courtyard, the two fed the three first, and then cooked a simple dinner together. Liu Wangxue cooked noodle soup, Xu Qingsong fried two side dishes, and after eating and cleaning up the kitchen, Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan came back.
The two elders took the cross stitch and were not in a hurry to come back. They went to the park where they had been last time for a stroll, went to the mall to eat and watch a movie, and bought some New Year's goods. Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong helped to carry the things downstairs.
The cross-stitch was originally quite long, and Gu Xuelan chose a two-meter-long painting, plus a frame for mounting it. Fortunately, there was enough space in Liu Nanshan’s car. She folded down the back seats, stuffed the painting in from the trunk, and pushed it vertically to the front of the car, so the trunk could just be closed, otherwise she would have to "drive with the box open".
They took down the odds and ends first, put the food in the kitchen, put the things that needed to be refrigerated in the refrigerator, and took the things they needed to use to the living room first. Finally, the four of them took down the cross-stitch together and carried it to the living room of the small building.
The sofa wall had been nailed according to the measured size during the decoration, and a narrow support was also built underneath. The four people took off their shoes and stood on the sofa to hang the cross-stitch on it.
After hanging it up, he came down and put on his shoes. He stood a little further away to admire it. Gu Xuelan was so happy that she could not express it in words: "Take a look, how is it?"
Many places in the living room are designed based on "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". Once this cross-stitch is hung up, the whole space feels alive and complements each other.
The three of them praised Gu Xuelan in turn, saying that she had a forward-looking vision, far-sightedness, and amazing aesthetics, which made Gu Xuelan feel flattered. She also knew that she chose this cross stitch just to fulfill a small wish of hers. At that time, she had no plans to build a new house. The current effect was entirely due to the designer. But who doesn't like to hear good words?
Gu Xuelan got excited and said, "I don't have anything to do tonight anyway, so why not take advantage of this opportunity to move all the things that need to be moved here."
"Okay." Liu Nanshan had no objection. After all, they were just clothes, quilts, daily necessities and the like, and it would only take a few trips back and forth to move them all.
"Sure." To be honest, Liu Wangxue was a little tired. She had also run a lot of laps in the threshing ground, but seeing that Gu Xuelan was so interested, she didn't want to spoil her fun, so she just moved.
Xu Qingsong rolled up his sleeves and said, "Then I'll help too."
They got to work right away. Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan were responsible for the things in their rooms, Liu Wangxue was responsible for her own room, and Xu Qingsong helped her.
Most of the clothes in the closet were hanging, so they could be taken down in a pile and carried away, and then hung directly in the small building. When the spring, summer and autumn clothes changed seasons, Gu Xuelan had helped to put them into compression bags, and a few bags could be carried or carried over in two or three trips. The remaining ones were stacked and some small clothes were packed in bags and carried over. All other small things were thrown into the suitcase and were taken in one trip.
The daily necessities in the bathroom and some small items in the living room were also put into basins or storage boxes, and everything was done in one trip. Finally, the projector was dismantled and taken to the living room of the small building.
The toys, snacks and rations of the three little ones were not touched, only their beds were taken over. Peng Peng, the clever dog, directly carried its bed up to the second floor, pushed open the door of Liu Wangxue's bedroom that was half closed by the wind, and placed the bed next to her bed.
Guagua also wanted to move its jewelry villa to Liu Wangxue's bedroom. It tried to imitate Pengpeng and tried to do it on its own, but it couldn't pick it up with its mouth or claws, so it had to call Pengpeng to come down for help.
But this cage is quite big, and there is no way to stop it from bumping into it. Then she saw Liu Wangxue coming over with something, and she bit her trouser leg to prevent her from leaving.
Gugu also jumped on top of the cage, stretched out one wing and pointed at the stairs: "Sleep! Sleep!"
Liu Wangxue understood, put down the things in her hands, carried the cage and went upstairs to her bedroom. Guagua and Pengpeng followed her upstairs. The little parrot was satisfied when it saw the cage was placed on the table next to the dressing table.
Xiaoci's nest is placed under the cat climbing frame in the living room. It always looks proudly at Pengpeng and Guoguo who are busying around. Its nest is just a decoration. It occupies the owner's bedside and pillow. Who is better than it? No one! It is the person with a superior status in this family. Well, no, it is the cat, a cat with a superior status.
Around nine o'clock, almost ten o'clock, all the things were moved, and Xu Qingsong went back without staying long because he had to go to work the next day.
It was definitely impossible to clean up. These things didn't seem like much, but it would take until late at night to finish cleaning them. Liu Wangxue didn't want to stay up late, so she took out the things she needed immediately, and the rest would have to wait until tomorrow. She also had to prepare to wash up and go to bed.
I stood up with my things and found that the screen of the mobile phone on the corner of the table was lit up. There were several unread messages on it. I opened it and saw that they were from Wenxi and Du Yunxiang.
Wenxi said that he bought some things for the three little ones and had them shipped over. He also sent a screenshot of the express delivery slip to Liu Wangxue and asked her to check it out.
Liu Wangxue replied to her and asked her when she would be back. Wenxi didn't reply, probably because she was busy again.
Du Yunxiang sent the message at half past eight. Liu Wangxue was so busy moving things that she didn't notice the message alert on her phone.
Du Yunxiang asked Liu Wangxue if she had time, and if so, to call her back.
An hour and a half had passed, and Liu Wangxue was not sure whether Du Yunxiang had rested or was still busy, so she typed a reply to explain briefly.
As soon as the message was sent, Du Yunxiang called, but her voice was very soft. She asked Liu Wangxue: "Have you moved all the things?"
"Everything has been moved, but it's not packed up yet." Liu Wangxue replied.
"Okay," Du Yunxiang said, "I called you for no other reason than to talk about the script."
Liu Wangxue heard her voice and asked, "Sister Yunxiang, is there anything going on with you? There's no rush for the script. If you're busy, we can talk about it another day."
"Oh, nothing." Du Yunxiang smiled, gently closed the door, and returned to normal volume, "I just coaxed Cha Cha to sleep."
Du Yunxiang continued, "You just sent me the script this morning, and Jing Yujun came over to ask for it. He said that you already have a director in mind, his senior sister Meng Luoqiu, and he wanted to take the script back to show it to his senior sister."
Liu Wangxue smiled and said, "I didn't, it was all just his own words. I think he wanted to read it himself. After he knew I had finished writing it, he asked me for it. I told him to wait until Sister Yunxiang had read it, but he didn't expect him to ask you for it directly."
"In fact, I originally intended to ask Meng Luoqiu to direct it," Du Yunxiang said, "She has finished reading the script today, and she called me before I sent you a message. She was very interested in the script and asked me if I had any other candidates. If not, she took the job."
"That's great!" Liu Wangxue was a little excited, "Sister Yunxiang, when do you plan to start filming?"
The plan for the Yiyou project had come out a few days ago. Under the organization of Du Yunkai, Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong had an online meeting with Shu Mingyuan and others and talked for a long time. After finalizing all matters such as funding, they attended a project launch meeting for Group B.
Team B didn't have many people originally, so they transferred some people from other teams to the team, and the remaining vacancies were waiting for a new round of recruitment. They handed over all the work on hand and concentrated on this B-tour project.
According to Du Yunkai's plan, a preliminary finished product will be produced within half a year at the latest, and then it will be polished, improved and tested, and officially launched at the end of this year or early next year.
When Du Yunxiang was walking towards her study, she met Yin Donglei coming out of the bedroom. She asked about Cha Cha, talked to her for a few words, and then chatted with Liu Wangxue. She could also hear the excitement in Liu Wangxue's tone and said with a smile, "It won't be so urgent to start filming. The drama can't be released before the game, right? Yun Kai informed me first, so it will be at least one or two months later than the game."
Du Yunxiang added, "But it can't be too late. It will take some time to go through the process of project establishment, approval, casting, and location selection. And from what I heard from Meng Luoqiu, she wants to talk to you first. She seems to have some ideas about the script and wants to communicate with you. Although this script is not large, it is still difficult to shoot. So my plan is to wrap up in the second half of the year and complete post-production before the end of the year, so that you can have some rest for a while and take over the filming of "The 21st Case of Dazhao"."
At present, the project plan for "The Twenty-one Cases of Dazhao" has also been completed.
During the New Year's Day, Liu Wangxue and his friends came up with a sudden idea while having dinner together after playing a script-killing game - to build a theme park for "The Twenty-one Cases of Dazhao" that combines real-life script-killing games, food, drink and entertainment, which would be used for the filming of the drama in the early stage and open to the public in the later stage. Du Yunkai called Du Yunxiang and told him the general idea after he got back.
Du Yunxiang originally preferred to build the indoor shooting scene by himself, so this was a perfect match. The siblings chatted for a long time, even talking about the post-production operation.
Du Yunxiang told Du Shaohua about this idea the next day. Du Shaohua liked the script very much. Even if he didn't like it, he thought the project was feasible from a commercial perspective. China is currently in short supply of large and well-known theme parks. If they can make this project a success, and then take advantage of the popularity of the game itself and the star effect after the show is broadcast, they won't have to worry about profitability.
The father and daughter selected people to form a special team to make a plan. After the plan was completed, Du Shaohua invited several of his old friends to dinner and successfully won cooperation. However, it was not so easy to get land for building an amusement park in Hai City. Several people used many connections but to no avail. Finally, one of the old men got the news through his connections that Huai City in southern Anhui Province might be a possibility.
Huai City is located in the north of Xi City, separated from Xi City by a province, and has also been engaged in urban and rural planning and construction. Huai City was originally a place with mountains and rivers. Coal mines were discovered in the last century, and the economy did develop as a result. However, mining was not restrained, and no attention was paid to environmental protection during the process. Since the beginning of this century, coal resources have been exhausted, human resources have been lost, and the environment has also been damaged. The government spent more than ten years and invested countless costs to restore some of the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers.
The past two years have seen another round of investment promotion in Huai City, mainly focusing on related tourism development, with the aim of boosting local economic development.
Du Shaohua and his group of old friends went to the local area as investors to "inspect" and see if they could get the land.
These people are well-known in society. Since they came with the intention of investing, the Huaihai Municipal Government must attach great importance to them. However, after learning about their intentions, the government was a little unsure. After reading the amusement park plan, they held several meetings and discussed it for a while.
A large theme park covers a large area and is not a small project. The government will definitely have many considerations. Du Yunxiang learned from his father Du Shaohua that the approval of the project is still under negotiation. It is said that the first stroke of the eight characters has been approved, and the other stroke is almost ready.
