Chapter 99: The Split Vicious Sister-in-law
"The eldest brother is the biggest, not the eldest sister." Erya said.
Erya had heard from her aunt and others that she had an older brother who was older than her and her elder sister, and that the older brother should take care of them.
"Your eldest brother is a boy, and boys don't need to go into the kitchen," Miao Guifeng said. There was no way she would let her precious son go into the kitchen. Of course, she had to let her daughter go into the kitchen. "Girls have to go into the kitchen. You have to do the kitchen work just like your mother, don't you understand?"
"I don't understand." Erya said stubbornly.
"Mom, I can do it." Daya said.
Daya didn't dare to say that she couldn't do it. Even if she couldn't do it, she had to learn.
"Okay, I'll teach you. You learn more." Miao Guifeng thought it would be great if her eldest daughter was reborn and knew how to cook. But then she thought it wasn't a good idea. She could just be reborn, and no one else needed to be reborn. "Don't blame your eldest brother. He's a man. As for you, you're the eldest sister, and you should do more housework."
Miao Guifeng instilled this idea into Daya. She didn't think there was anything wrong with favoring boys over girls. She did this for the sake of her family.
"When Mom isn't home, you can still cook," Miao Guifeng said. "Mom has to go out and sell roasted sweet potatoes to make money so I can support you. You still have to go to school, just like your older brother, and that costs money. If Mom doesn't go out to earn money, you won't have money to go to school. Don't you want to go to school?"
Erya glanced at her elder brother, and her elder brother just thought about eating and said nothing.
Miao Guifeng really taught Daya how to cook. She wanted Daya to take on the recognition of her elder sister as soon as possible and to take care of the family more. Miao Guifeng also said that she couldn't let Daya be useless. Only when her daughter is hardworking can she be popular.
When Niu Cuihua heard what Miao Guifeng did, she didn't quite agree with it.
In her previous life, Miao Guifeng only had three daughters. She taught her daughters that way, without saying anything about her sons. Niu Cuihua didn't think Miao Guifeng was wrong. At most, she thought Miao Guifeng had a hard time in her husband's family. Now, Miao Guifeng has both a son and a daughter, and instead of asking her son to do more, she wants her daughter to do it.
In the past, Niu Cuihua also favored boys over girls, and she wanted her daughter to do more things. After Niu Cuihua came to the city, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were not the ones who favored boys over girls. They were very good to Zhao Jiaojiao, and Niu Cuihua followed suit. Over time, Niu Cuihua felt that her daughter was not bad either. She did not want to treat her daughter badly, and she still had to treat her daughter better.
Niu Cuihua thought she was being nice to her daughter by not always asking her to cook. She thought she had spent so much money on her daughter's guzheng lessons, and if she asked her to cook, wouldn't that be a waste of money? That wouldn't do.
When Jiang Moli told her family that she was going to shoot a commercial, her mother was very shocked.
"Are you going to shoot a commercial?" Jiang's mother asked, "The one that airs on TV?"
"Yes." Jiang Moli nodded, "That's the advertisement."
"Are they looking for you?" Jiang's mother asked.
"They found the company and told me after they selected me," Jiang Moli said. "The contract hasn't been signed yet. They said they would formally sign the contract if I agreed."
"That's not bad." Jiang's mother said, "Take a good look at it and take the picture if you want."
"Yeah." Jiang Moli nodded.
"This is a good thing." Sheng Jiahao said, "Why didn't I think of asking you to shoot a commercial before?"
"Don't think about it." Jiang Moli gently pinched Sheng Jiahao's arm, "You don't have to join in the fun. The commercial still needs to be shot better."
Jiang Moli had no objection to filming commercials. If someone approached her and it was a good fit, she would do it. Jiang Moli had never filmed a commercial before, so it was a good idea for her to do it now. A higher profile for Jiang Moli would also be beneficial to the troupe.
"Congratulations, you've taken a step further." Sheng Jiahao said.
"It's okay, it's okay." Jiang Moli said, "If we can shoot, we can shoot. It's fine as long as it takes. But if it takes a long time, then it won't work."
Jiang Moli's schedule is so full and busy that she worries she won't have time to take care of her children. But there has to be time for childcare; it can't be missing out.
"Water Margin" was broadcast, and the character Jiang Moli did not appear at the beginning, but in the middle part.
Jiang Moli isn't a Liangshan hero; she exists only to make Wu Song more vivid. Wu Song is the reason for Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian. This is true of "Water Margin," where the heroes all have distinct families and experiences. Each story is unique, and many characters are memorable.
Jiang Moli is too busy. She doesn't have time to sit in front of the TV and watch "Water Margin" every day. She watches it when she has time, and doesn't watch it when she doesn't have time.
After the scene of Pan Jinlian in "Water Margin" was played, people did not dislike Pan Jinlian so much, but thought that Pan Jinlian was indeed not suitable to be with Wu Dalang. With Wu Dalang's ugly appearance, it was no wonder that Pan Jinlian had other thoughts.
Some viewers also think it's a pity for Pan Jinlian, saying that she was just pursuing her own happiness, but unfortunately she chose the wrong person. Women in ancient times were too pitiful. Some viewers hated Pan Jinlian so much that they said she was too abominable.
Overall, Jiang Moli’s performance as Pan Jinlian was quite successful.
After "Water Margin" was broadcast, the commercial shot by Jiang Moli was also broadcast on TV.
He Jingxian saw Jiang Moli's advertisement. She originally thought that she could just follow Jiang Moli's footsteps and film a TV series, but Jiang Moli also filmed an advertisement. He Jingxian just felt that it was too difficult for her to catch up with Jiang Moli. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, He Jingxian would give it a try.
Aunt Qi brought He Jingxian good news. There was an urban drama that needed an actor to play a supporting role, and the supporting role had quite a lot of scenes.
"Isn't this just a vicious sister-in-law?" He Jingxian took a quick look at the character's biography and read two episodes of the script.
"Regardless of whether she's vicious or not, this sister-in-law has a lot of scenes, and it wasn't filmed in a day or two." Aunt Qi said, "Don't you always compare yourself to Jiang Moli? Jiang Moli doesn't have many scenes in TV dramas. Journey to the West is a unit series, and she didn't appear from beginning to end. And in this drama you're in, your character appears more frequently. Look, Jiang Moli played Pan Jinlian in Water Margin, and no one ever criticized her. Many people even thought she played it well."
Aunt Qi Er knew He Jingxian's psychology. She really thought this role was good. He Jingxian was not famous to begin with, so why should others give He Jingxian an important role? There was no need for others to give He Jingxian a chance. Many people wanted to film TV series, and the crew could let others take the role.
"Will you act or not?" asked Aunt Qi.
"Act!" He Jingxian nodded, "I'll act!"
He Jingxian thought that since this was a rare opportunity, she had to act. She couldn't help but think that if she took this step, she would become more famous later. If she didn't take this step, it would be difficult. Jiang Moli was so famous that it was difficult for He Jingxian to catch up.
"If there's a costume drama, I'll act it out too." He Jingxian said, "Jiang Moli only plays costume dramas."
"Okay, I'll tell you when I get a chance." Aunt Qi said, "If you go to film, it will be difficult for you to participate in the company's performance. Don't worry about this matter, I will take care of it for you. If you want to film, we will let you go, but you still have to take care of the family."
"I will take care of my family more." He Jingxian said this, but she didn't think much about her family. She only thought about filming, and filming a lot of movies.
When Shi's mother went outside, she heard those people talking about Jiang Moli again. Everyone was still praising Jiang Moli. Shi's mother felt that Jiang Moli was not good, very bad.
"What's so good about a woman who cheats on her husband?"
"You praise her every day, but don't you know whether she's good or not? She's not even your neighbor anymore, and she doesn't come over because she's on guard against you."
"You treat her as a good person, but she treats you as trouble."
…
When Shi's mother said this, Aunt Zhao was dissatisfied when she heard it.
"Jasmine isn't having an affair. She's just playing that role," Aunt Zhao said. "Jasmine is married, so isn't it normal for her to live with her husband? Every married girl lives with her husband. Didn't your daughter live with her husband after she got married? They don't come back often."
Many families have daughters, and their daughters rarely come back after they get married.
Aunt Zhao didn't like hearing what Mother Shi said. People who didn't understand might think they had something against their married daughters. But they didn't have any problem with their married daughters. It was right for married girls to visit their parents less often. Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.
"Where's your Shi Nan?" Aunt Zhao asked. "He's a man, living in a woman's house, and he hasn't come back. Does he look down on people like us?"
"You..." Shi's mother didn't expect Aunt Zhao to say such a thing.
"That's right. He's a college graduate, so naturally he looks down on people like us," Aunt Zhao said. "We're useless, so your son should really look down on us, right?"
"Don't say anything nonsense if it's not true." Shi's mother said with a serious expression.
"If that's not the case, why doesn't he come?" Aunt Zhao asked. "Isn't it because he looks down on us and doesn't want to interact with us that he doesn't come? Do you really think we can't figure this out?"
Mother Shi was too lazy to argue with Aunt Zhao. She thought that these people were all stupid and unworthy of her talking to them. Mother Shi believed that everything she said was right and everything others said was wrong.
Shi Nan was reluctant to go home, and Shi's mother had already sensed it. When Shi's mother went to look for Shi Nan, she often couldn't see him. When Shi's mother called Shi Nan, he often hung up quickly.
Shi's mother couldn't control Shi Nan's affairs, nor could she get Shi Nan to come home more often.
Jiang Moli is so popular now that she even has commercials. When Shi's mother watched TV, she often saw Jiang Moli. There were commercials for Jiang Moli on several TV stations. She thought she would not see Jiang Moli if she stopped watching that channel, but when she changed the channel, she saw Jiang Moli's face again. She was so angry that she wanted to smash the TV.
What's going on with these TV stations? Why do they keep showing Jiang Moli's commercials? Are the others dead? Why is Jiang Moli allowed to film so many commercials?
In fact, Jiang Moli has shot very few commercials. She only shot three commercials, and the time for each commercial was very short. Jiang Moli's time for shooting commercials was also very short, and she could shoot a commercial in one or two days. The advertising copy and other materials were already prepared by the relevant companies. Those people got the final script and then asked Jiang Moli to shoot. The shooting material would be more, not all of it was edited into the commercial.
Jiang Moli is beautiful and the commercials she shoots are also good.
There were so many people who envied Jiang Moli that it was impossible for her to pay much attention to Shi's mother and He Jingxian. Not to mention Shi's mother and He Jingxian in South City, even Zhu Zhixuan and Ma Yuwen in other cities had seen the commercials shot by Jiang Moli, and they had also seen Jiang Moli's performance in "Water Margin".
Ma Yuwen really admires Jiang Moli. Jiang Moli actually dared to play Pan Jinlian. Such a role is not something that ordinary people can handle. If it is not played well, people will dislike it very much. Jiang Moli is so brave. She played Pan Jinlian.
At this time, Zhu Zhixuan had already realized that she and Jiang Moli were not on the same level. She wanted to be on the same level as Jiang Moli, but that was impossible because she really didn't have that strong ability. When Zhu Zhixuan learned that Jiang Moli's new drama was a hit, she didn't want to talk. When others asked her about Jiang Moli, she said she didn't know. Others said that Zhu Zhixuan used to work at the Provincial Xiaobaihua, and weren't Zhu Zhixuan and Jiang Moli colleagues?
Someone at the company knew that Zhu Zhixuan had reported Jiang Moli, and they thought that Zhu Zhixuan would of course say she didn't know, because she didn't have the face to say anything about Jiang Moli. Jiang Moli was really capable, while Zhu Zhixuan relied on her family connections. If she didn't have family connections, how could Zhu Zhixuan play such an important role?
The broadcast of "Water Margin" was very successful, and the crew and production staff were very happy. The director had long thought that Jiang Moli's role would be very good, but he didn't expect it to be so good. More people remembered Pan Jinlian than Li Shishi, and those people also said that Pan Jinlian was more beautiful.
No matter what, everyone was very happy with this success.
Jiang Moli played Pan Jinlian so well that some people wanted to let Jiang Moli play other roles, such as Su Daji. However, the script has not been completed yet and is still being written, so some roles can be decided first.
One day after Jiang Moli finished her performance, she went to work and saw someone coming to see her. It was a producer from a film and television production company. The producer had contacted the leader of Jiang Moli's work unit. The producer was originally from the system, but he had gone into the entertainment industry and was no longer in the system.
"This role is good, and you have a lot of scenes," the producer said, "but it's not a lot. We can focus on filming your scenes and try not to affect your performance."
"Well..." After Jiang Moli played Jia Yuanchun, people liked to let her play more dignified roles. After she played Pan Jinlian, people asked her to play Su Daji...
Jiang Moli really didn't know what to say. She hadn't intended to go for a charming style. As for Pan Jinlian's success, it was just a coincidence. Jiang Moli initially wondered if they wanted her to play the cameo role of Nuwa. Nuwa appeared only a few times, while Su Daji appeared many times. In "Investiture of the Gods," Su Daji was particularly important.
"The script hasn't been written yet. You can wait until it's finished and take a look at it." The producer said, "You can think about it carefully during this period."
The producer left Jiang Moli his phone number, thinking that he could call her workplace later. He was very optimistic about her. When the producer saw her portrayal of Pan Jinlian, he knew she was the best choice for Su Daji. Not only did the producer think so, but the director and others also thought so. They all felt that Jiang Moli was very suitable for the role of Su Daji.
If the producers had only seen Jiang Moli play the Queen of the Kingdom of Women, they would think that Jiang Moli was not suitable for the role of Su Daji. But after seeing Jiang Moli play Pan Jinlian, they thought: This is the chosen Su Daji.
After He Jingxian accepted the filming of the TV series, she did not participate in the unit's performances for the time being, but went to film the TV series first.
Zhou Yiran didn't see He Jingxian at work, and when she learned that He Jingxian had gone to film a TV series, she was not surprised that He Jingxian had really gone to film a TV series.
In the evening, Jiang Moli returned home. When she told Sheng Jiahao that a film crew wanted her to play Su Daji, she felt it was ridiculous.
"This is ridiculous. Me, Su Daji?" Jiang Moli pointed at herself.
Jiang Moli didn't dare to tell her parents while she was eating, for fear that her parents wouldn't believe her or that they would laugh so hard that they would spit out their food.
After arriving at the bedroom, Jiang Moli said to Sheng Jiahao.
"What are these people thinking?" Jiang Moli asked.
"From now on, the emperor will not hold court early in the morning." Sheng Jiahao said, "Indeed, it is very appropriate."
"Suitable?" Jiang Moli glared at Sheng Jiahao.
"I have this idea. I don't want to work and I want to stay with you." Sheng Jiahao said, "But if I don't work, you will be snatched away by others."
"You..." Jiang Moli was deflated.
"If you want to act, then act. If you don't want to act, then refuse." Sheng Jiahao said.
"The script isn't ready yet. He said he'd wait until it's ready before letting me take a look." Jiang Moli said, "He also said there aren't many scenes."
Jiang Moli was wondering if she would be stereotyped and would only play similar roles if she played Su Daji.
"Thinking carefully, the roles I play now are all considered beauties." Jiang Moli said, "Will others say that my face is too big and I always play beautiful women?"
"No." Sheng Jiahao said, "Let others say what they want. You can't make everyone like you. As long as you enjoy acting, that's enough. Other things don't matter."
"That's true." Jiang Moli nodded. "I think so too. When I was performing in opera, I didn't play a role like Su Daji. It felt a bit disconnected."
You have to know that the opera roles played by Jiang Moli are more like the ones that bring peace and prosperity to the country. When Jiang Moli went to film TV series, everything was fine before, but it was not the same when she played Pan Jinlian. Now others want Jiang Moli to play Su Daji.
"TV dramas are TV dramas, and operas are operas. Although the audiences overlap, they don't care too much about it." Sheng Jiahao said, "If you act well, people will like you. If you act badly, people will criticize you."
"I'll think about it carefully." Jiang Moli said, "I just feel like the path I'm taking is a bit strange."
Jiang Moli didn't really want to play Su Daji, but that was Su Daji, and Su Daji was indeed a very good character, one that others would remember. Jiang Moli was considering whether to play the role. If the role wasn't too large, it wouldn't be a problem for her. She should wait and see the script. If the role was very large, then it might not be suitable.
But Jiang Moli really didn't need to worry too much. These days, TV series aren't very long. The Four Great Classics are generally longer. "Investiture of the Gods" is a long story, but the story about Su Daji isn't particularly lengthy, and not every episode has many scenes. Most TV series produced by film and television companies are over 20 or 30 episodes long, and they rarely go beyond that.
When filming "Investiture of the Gods," one might focus on the story of a particular character, like Nezha, or perhaps focus on Nezha's story. Alternatively, one could focus on a few key characters and dwell on their stories, adding in some romance. That's pretty much it. TV series require significant investment, and film and television companies consider both the cost and whether TV stations are willing to buy such a long series.
"If I were to act, it would be this one. I can't take on roles like this anymore," Jiang Moli said.
"You'll know later." Sheng Jiahao said, "It's up to you."
Sheng Jiahao didn't say absolutely. If Jiang Moli still wanted to participate, he would still support Jiang Moli and would never say no. If Sheng Jiahao dared to say no, his mother would definitely jump out and criticize him, saying how could he not know Moli.
In the eyes of her parents, Jiang Moli is their biological daughter, and they are the son who was picked up from outside.
"We have enough money at home, you can be more casual." Sheng Jiahao said, "That money is enough to live on."
"I know." Jiang Moli nodded.
It was no secret that the producer wanted Jiang Moli to play Su Daji. It was okay to tell anyone about this kind of thing. The film and television companies themselves also wanted to promote the role, so someone deliberately spread the news. Even though the casting hadn't been finalized, someone was already saying it.
When Zhou Yiran learned that Jiang Moli was going to play Su Daji, she was shocked.
"Are you going further and further down the road of bringing disaster to the country and the people?" Zhou Yiran said.
"What are you saying?" Jiang Moli said, "I haven't signed the contract yet. I'm still thinking about it."
"Just act if you want to. It's just a role." Zhou Yiran said.
Zhou Yaran brought her son to Jiang Moli's place. Her son didn't want to play with the baby, but wanted to eat cakes. Zhou Yaran looked at her son sitting there with a rice cake in his left hand and a meat bun in his right hand. She didn't know what to say to her son.
"He's eaten everything at home," Zhou Yiran said, "but the food at your place is even better, much better."
Zhou Yiran herself thinks that the food at Jiang Moli's house is delicious, not to mention Zhou Yiran's son.
"Let him eat." Jiang Moli said, "It's just some food, homemade, clean."
"It's not that the food you have is unclean, it's just that the food is too delicious. When he goes back, he'll start being picky about food again." Zhou Yiran said, "Our food isn't as delicious as the food you have here."
"Make him something delicious," Jiang Moli said. "Actually, our food doesn't have that many seasonings. Some of the seasonings are made by the chef using fresh ingredients that haven't been stored for very long."
"You have a chef at home, a professional chef." Zhou Yiran said, "In our family, either my mother-in-law cooks or I cook. Oh, my husband can also cook. As you know, my cooking skills are very average. This child is picky about food. If it tastes good, it must be meaty. Meaty food is fragrant."
"Wait a moment, take some back with you." Jiang Moli said.
"Take it back?" Zhou Yiran was surprised. "We came here to buy some goods."
"What's the big deal?" Jiang Moli asked, "Do you have to be so particular with me?"
"That's true." Zhou Yiran nodded, "Then I won't be polite with you."
"You're welcome." Jiang Moli chuckled. "Seeing your son eating so happily, I was wondering if our little treasure would find it delicious too when he grows up a little and can eat these things."
"Yes, I will." Zhou Yiran said, "These things are really delicious."
"You eat too." Jiang Moli said.
"Eat, eat everything." Zhou Yiran said, "Originally, I wanted my son to see your son more often, but you see him, he's busy eating and not thinking about his brother. When he was at home, he said he wanted to see his brother, but after coming here, he just eats, eats, eats."
Zhou Yaran felt a little embarrassed when she saw her son like that. It wasn't like she hadn't let her son eat, but when he came to Jiang Moli's place, he ate voraciously, as if she had starved him. God knows, her mother-in-law often made delicious food for her son, but Zhou Yaran and her husband couldn't eat those things. Zhou Yaran's mother-in-law made those things for the baby, and as an adult, she naturally wouldn't compete with a child for food.
"The food at home isn't tasty, but the food outside is delicious," Zhou Yiran said. "It's the same when I go to my mom's house. She sits there and eats a whole meal. My mom asks me if we haven't fed the child and if he's starving. Look at my son's hands, they're almost as yellow as lotus roots. Is he still hungry?"
"He's definitely not hungry." Jiang Moli nodded. "You've taken good care of the child."
"It's okay, he's a little fatter. If he ate a lot and was still thin, people would say we were abusing him." Zhou Yiran said, "We've tried our best to treat him well."
Jiang Moli's baby found it very novel. He watched Zhou Yiran's son eat and wanted to reach out and grab some too. Jiang Moli naturally couldn't let her baby eat these things. The baby was still young and couldn't eat these things yet.
Miao Guifeng successfully registered her three daughters. Da Ya and Er Ya were going to school, but San Ya was still very young and could wait. Miao Guifeng calculated the cost and realized it would be a lot, but she couldn't stop her daughters from going to school. She had been able to send her daughters to school in her past life, and she could do so in this life as well.
"If you hadn't lent the money to your brother and kept it, we wouldn't have to worry so much now." Miao Guifeng said, "The child will need a lot of tuition."
"That money...there is no way to get it back." Yang Bingrong was afraid that Miao Guifeng would ask him to ask for the money, and he would not be able to get it.
The couple sat in the room while Miao Guifeng calculated how much money they would need to spend. This was mainly because their family had just bought a house and didn't have much money at the moment.
"I didn't ask you to take it back." Miao Guifeng said, "Can you go to your company and get a month's salary in advance so that you can deal with the current situation first? The children need to be enrolled in school. Tuition is not a small amount, but they still need to pay. After paying tuition, they also need money to eat. We eat together, and we can save a little."
Miao Guifeng had raised three daughters in her previous life, and she knew that raising three daughters was very expensive, and it was impossible not to need some money. At this moment, Miao Guifeng thought that if she didn't value these three daughters, she would not have given birth to them. If she hadn't given birth to them, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.
"Daya needs to be asked to do more things. As for Erya, if she doesn't do anything, she can let Daya do it. That's her ability." Miao Guifeng said.
Erya herself doesn't want to do more things, and even if Daya asks her to do something, she won't do it. Erya can watch Daya do things, but she herself doesn't want to do more. Erya will throw away the broom and just stand there.
Miao Guifeng didn't hit Erya after all. She saw herself in Erya in this life, and she still liked the things in this life. In her previous life, Miao Guifeng would hit Erya a few more times to make her do more things and not be so lazy.
"Erya has to go to kindergarten, and Daya is in elementary school," Miao Guifeng said. "Tianlang is also in elementary school. We have to take better care of Tianlang. He's a boy, and he'll have to support the family in the future."
"We have to support this family." Yang Bingrong said.
"Tianlang has three younger sisters, and they will have to rely on him in the future," Miao Guifeng said. "We should let Daya and the others do more things. They need to be more diligent. Then, in the future, they won't always cause trouble for their brother and won't have to ask him for help all the time."
To put it bluntly, Miao Guifeng just wanted her three daughters to help her eldest son. Daughters should help sons, and after getting married, daughters still have to rely on their parents' family.
"Originally, this money should have been used to help Tianlang learn more." Miao Guifeng said, "Niu Cuihua's son is also learning swimming, so he should learn something. Besides swimming, he also learned some martial arts."
Miao Guifeng, thinking Niu Cuihua and her husband were spending a fortune on their son and daughter, urged her to stop letting Zhao Jiaojiao learn the guzheng. A girl would eventually marry, and Zhao Jiaojiao would earn money for her in-laws, not her own. Niu Cuihua simply listened too much to Jiang Moli and her friends. She'd spent too much on Zhao Jiaojiao. Did Niu Cuihua think Zhao Jiaojiao could ever be like Jiang Moli? Jiang Moli might be strong, but Zhao Jiaojiao wasn't.
"Our son hasn't learned that much," Miao Guifeng said. "Every time I see other people's sons doing so well, I feel sorry for our son. I really feel sorry for him. It's all our fault as parents for not having enough money. That's why he has to live such a hard life. When his sisters come back, I'm afraid he won't finish his meal before the food is gone."
At the dinner table, Miao Guifeng often picked up food for Yang Tianlang, fearing that her son would go hungry. After she cooked a plate of meat, she would constantly pick up meat for her son, regardless of whether her daughters got any. Erya would pick up more meat for herself, but Daya didn't dare to. Miao Guifeng didn't even know Daya didn't get any meat.
Daya didn't pick up any meat. When she wanted to pick up a piece of meat later, Miao Guifeng said to Daya: Your brother was growing up, but you didn't know how to feel sorry for him.
Neither Miao Guifeng nor Yang Bingrong noticed that Daya didn't eat a piece of meat, but Erya said: Big sister hasn't eaten meat yet, not a single piece.
When Miao Guifeng and his wife heard Erya's words, they didn't think they were wrong, because it was Daya who didn't pick up any meat.
"It will get better slowly." Yang Bingrong said.
"I hope Daya can learn to cook quickly," Miao Guifeng said. "If she does more, I can relax a little."
Miao Guifeng also asked her daughters to wash sweet potatoes. She believed that she could not stop her daughters from doing things, but had to let them do more. Miao Guifeng believed that everything she did was for the good of her daughters. If her daughters did not do things, when they arrived at her in-laws' house, their in-laws would only criticize her.
Zhou Yiran took her son back home, and they also brought back a lot of food, including rice cakes, buns, and some other things.
"So many?" Zhou Yiran's mother-in-law, Yao's mother, was surprised when she saw all those things. "Aren't you going to your friend's place?"
"Yeah, it's this little one from our family. When he sees delicious food at other people's houses, he eats it with open arms," Zhou Yiran said. "Moli is so worried about him that she even gives him digestive tablets and makes him hawthorn soup."
Zhou Yiran looked at her son's round belly. She really didn't know what to say to her son. She really didn't let her son go hungry.
"It's delicious, really delicious." Zhou Yiran's son said, "It's especially delicious."
"It's delicious, delicious. You only know how to eat." Zhou Yiran reached out and pinched her son's face. "When people ask you for something, you just say you want this and that."
"Hello, auntie." said Zhou Yaran's son.
"Of course she is good, she is my best friend." Zhou Yiran said, "If you weren't my son, you wouldn't be able to eat so many delicious foods over there."
Zhou Yiran thought to herself that it was fortunate that she was at Jiang Moli's place. If she was at someone else's, she would have felt really embarrassed. The child didn't understand those things; he only knew that the food was delicious.
"From now on, when you go to someone else's house, don't act like you did at your Aunt Jasmine's house. Others will laugh at you." Zhou Yiran said, "Do you understand?"
"That's Aunt Moli." Zhou Yiran's son had seen Jiang Moli often, and he knew that Jiang Moli would feel sorry for him.
"Yes, that's right." Zhou Yiran said.
After Zhou Yiran left, Jiang Moli told her mother about Zhou Yiran's child.
"Yaran's children are so cute." Jiang Moli said, "They are so chubby."
"Their family raises their children very well." Jiang's mother said.
"Well, he's not just taking good care of himself, he's doing very well," Jiang Moli said. "He's taking exceptionally good care of himself. He's adorable when he eats. Yaran even told him not to eat so late at other people's houses, but I said this is our home, so there's no need to worry. Yaran's child even calls me auntie, which is so adorable."
Jiang Moli also made milk powder for her baby so that he wouldn't have to watch others eat. The baby drank the milk with great enthusiasm, probably because he saw Zhou Yiran's child eating so happily.
"Ya'ran is still very pure, and so is her son." Jiang's mother said.
"I told them to come over more often in the future," Jiang Moli said. "When our children grow up, it would be great if our two families could play together more often."
The two children might not attend the same school, but Jiang Moli thought that wasn't a big deal. They still had the chance to play together, so there was no need to worry too much. Jiang Moli and Zhou Yiran had a good relationship; they lived in the same city and saw each other often.
If two people live in different cities, it will be difficult for them to see each other often.
After He Jingxian started acting in TV dramas, she found that TV dramas were not easy to act in. He Jingxian had never acted in TV dramas before. There is a difference between opera and TV dramas. Opera requires constant rehearsals, while TV dramas cannot rehearse for so many days or for very long periods of time.
He Jingxian is just a supporting role, and the director can't waste too much time on her, so the director will say something about her. He Jingxian feels very uncomfortable when she is said that, and she is thinking about when Jiang Moli was acting, has she also been said that by the director?
"If you don't want to act, then get out." The director spoke rudely.
When He Jingxian heard the director's words, she decided she absolutely couldn't leave. She had to stay and play this role. The director's words were a little harsh, but many people continued to act. They just had to get used to the director's speaking style and not think about other things.
If they really left, the director would not feel sorry. He would say that he was just talking and that they would have to pay liquidated damages if they left.
Most people just get scolded and don’t think about leaving.
The crew members would also comfort He Jingxian, saying that this is how they act.
"Aren't you an opera singer? Didn't the director say anything to you during your rehearsal?" Someone from the crew spoke to He Jingxian.
Of course, He Jingxian was also criticized by the director when she sang opera, but the two gave people quite different feelings.
"You'll get used to it. Don't worry. The director didn't mean anything else. That's just his motto." said someone from the crew.
"Yeah." He Jingxian nodded. She would not back down. She was determined to continue acting.
He Jingxian thought that if Jiang Moli could do it, she could do it too. Jiang Moli had indeed been criticized by the director, but fortunately, the director didn't say anything too harsh. Jiang Moli knew the difference between singing opera and acting in TV dramas. She didn't put herself too high on the list, but knew how to learn from others. He Jingxian was a little too proud of herself, she always felt that she should be very capable.
"Don't be unhappy, many people have been criticized." The crew members said this to He Jingxian. Some people saw that He Jingxian was unhappy and were afraid that He Jingxian would insist on arguing with the director.
He Jingxian did not argue with the director, she didn't want to leave the crew.
Jiang Moli didn't know what happened to He Jingxian. She still had to participate in the performance. She had too many things to do and didn't have the energy to pay attention to what He Jingxian was doing. Whether He Jingxian was filming a TV series or not had no effect on Jiang Moli. The two of them were no longer competitors.
Miao Guifeng sent Daya and Erya to school. She also said to Yang's mother, "Daya and Erya are your granddaughters. When you go to pick up your precious grandson, please pick them up as well."
