Chapter 77 Discovering the Truth

The summer breeze in the high-altitude mountains is cool, especially late at night, it is very comfortable.

But for those who have a guilty conscience, it will make people feel cold all over.

"Do you remember where you are? Make sure you are there!" A low male voice echoed in the night wind. The man who spoke trembled and looked around, feeling cold sweat all over his body.

In the moonlight, his hand holding the hoe was shaking a little, and he always felt that someone was watching him from somewhere.

The eldest brother of the He family, who was holding a steel hammer, pushed his younger brother and whispered, "Don't be so useless. That person never bullied us when he was alive, and he can't do anything to us after he dies!"

"Your brother is right. Don't be timid. Find him as soon as possible and finish the job so that we can return to the county town safely." The middle-aged woman lowered her voice and urged the other three to hurry up.

If they work faster, they can dig it out and bury it again in the next two days. Then they can go back to the county and enjoy it.

They didn't come back to do the hard labor of building roads; they have money.

The eldest and second sons of the He family hummed, and they didn't dare to bring a light. They walked on the road in the dark, searching inch by inch for the place where the body was buried that year.

Even the most vivid memories would become blurred after more than a decade. Especially now that it was night and there were no lights, they were very cautious to avoid making mistakes.

The four of them were whispering to each other, trying to estimate the location.

After a vague confirmation, the four people started digging.

He worked very hard, hammering away with the pickaxe and hoe in his hands. After all, if they were not careful, their whole family would have to go in, so they had to work harder.

Seventeen years ago, the road was a gravel road, and it was still under construction at the time. The rammed earth was solid and covered with layers of gravel, some of which were very thick.

So they chose this place at that time. There was no one around and it was at the corner of the village road. Even if it smelled bad, it would not be easy to find.

When the road was built later, they also wanted to move, but it was too difficult to find and dig. In addition, the cement road was built later without destroying the previous foundation, but directly covered it with 20 centimeters, so they were even more reluctant to move.

If they hadn't heard that this time the road construction would rebuild the roadbed and widen the village road, they would never have come back.

The middle-aged woman dug for a while, then stood up, holding her waist. "I'm so tired. That little actress named Yan Xue is so rich. Why would she donate money for no reason?"

"You're just a jerk. Even after being scolded like that, Mad chose to keep quiet. If it were me, I wouldn't build any roads even if I burned the money." The second son of the He family was extremely angry. He swore at Yan Xue for her non-cooperation.

They had planned it during the day, and the two of them would go to block Yan Xue and Xu Zhizhi. The two of them had already planned it, and they were sure to do it. Once they did it, the two of them would be overwhelmed and would definitely stop donating.

At most they will be detained for a few days. Once this matter is done, they won't have to risk going out to dig if the road is not repaired.

The key is that after digging it out, we don’t know how to hide it, and how to explain this pit. One night is not enough to fill it back, so how to explain it then, etc.

It's scary to hide the bones at home, and those people won't go out to hide them in the village. Those forests are owned by people, and from time to time there are villagers collecting firewood, and they will check if there is something wrong.

Otherwise, they would not have chosen to bury the carcasses on a road that was under construction, thinking that no one would step on the road. In addition, some malicious people wanted to make the carcasses be trampled by thousands of people, so they chose to bury them under the roadbed.

I thought the plan was foolproof, but celebrities are all temperamental and can easily fall into the trap.

I didn't expect that both of them were such cowards that they just endured that humiliation.

The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. The two brothers felt extremely frustrated.

If they hadn't been detained for not completing the plan, they wouldn't have apologized. They were wealthy enough to apologize to the two women and give them face.

The two of them were concentrating on thinking, digging the hole quickly with the hoes in their hands.

They will just dig today and fill it back up after finding what they have dug so they can dig again the next day.

Fortunately, it is located in a corner close to the mountain. If we cover it up, we should be able to fool people...some people thought so.

Unfortunately, it was really hard work. For insurance reasons, they left home at twelve o'clock in the evening. They checked their mobile phones halfway and found that it was two o'clock before they had dug a hole more than ten centimeters high. It took four people at a time.

This was done using a hoe and a steel drill, and if they wanted to find the person, they had to penetrate this layer, dig down to the gravel road, and then the soil layer under the gravel road was the target.

Several of them had gotten used to living a pampered life in the county town over the years, and they all shook and pinched their hands that were hurt by the shock, grumbling in their hearts.

"I think we should just not dig it up. They don't necessarily have to tear down the entire foundation, and there's no need to risk digging it out for us." The second son of the He family complained.

He thought they were too timid. So many years had passed. Even if they dug it out, who could prove it was that person? By then, it would definitely be a dead end.

He's father reached out his hand and slapped the second son of the He family on the head. "Stupid, didn't you see the road construction drawings we saw before? Zhenshang County is determined to build a good road to flatter them, and then rely on the TV series to attract attention to develop the tourism industry. Digging up the corpse, combined with the disappearance of that person, it will be easy to suspect us."

"Isn't it enough that I know it? But it's too difficult. Is there really no other way? The key is that even if we keep digging, the burial place may not be here. Isn't it a waste of effort?" The eldest brother of the He family said with a frown.

After more than a decade, their memories have become too blurry and they can't guarantee that they are here.

Once their digging was discovered and corpses were unearthed, they would be the first to suspect.

Thinking of this, he began to blame his parents again, wondering why they had come up with such a bad idea.

He's father reached out, took out a cigarette and lit it. "Hurry up. If it doesn't work, we have to start with the celebrities who paid for it."

When the other three heard this, they kept calculating in their minds.

Compared to physical work and the risk of exposure, they would rather start with celebrities.

In the darkness, the chisel was driven down again and again.

At five o'clock in the morning, the four men had only dug a 50-centimeter hole.

The foundation is just below, and the gravel road has been exposed.

Everyone showed a look of joy.

At this moment, car lights came on in the distance and the four people's faces turned pale.

They looked at each other and began to fill the dirt in quickly. When the car was about ten meters away from them, they had almost finished filling it. Then several people carried shovels and pickaxes and walked towards the mountain.

There was a pile of weeds next to them, and the four people were quickly covered.

They had just hidden themselves when a car drove by and they were almost discovered.

The four men ignored the scratches on their faces and hands from the tall grass and covered their chests with their hands, their faces turning pale with fear.

Three minutes later, they came out only after they were sure that the other person had really left.

There was no time to think about whose car it was. The four of them looked at the newly filled hole, and at the sky in the distance which was already turning pale. They filled the hole again tacitly and quietly returned to the village.

The villagers are very hardworking. Some of them go out to work at five or six o'clock.

If someone finds out something is wrong, they will all be exposed.

Sure enough, not long after they got home, they heard people leaving the house.

The four of them looked at each other and felt that the situation was not good, because the rice harvest was about to start. The busy farming season had begun, and they didn't have much time left at night.

The key is that, because of the abundant funds and the fact that few people drive in and out of the village on a normal day, the county construction team planned to have four construction teams, one at the beginning and one at the end, and then send two construction teams in the middle to work on both sides simultaneously.

This will not only save construction time, but also allow the road to be built as quickly as possible.

After the drama is finished and aired, if it boosts tourism, tourists will immediately have good roads to travel on, and they won’t miss out on that golden time.

When the He family heard the news, they were shocked. What was going on?

The most important thing is that they inquired about the construction team's construction information, and the middle section started one kilometer away from their group.

In other words, once they have found a construction team, they will use excavators and manual labor to dig the roadbed.

So after they got the news, they rushed back and implemented the method, and started digging immediately after failing.

If they fail on the first day, they will only have one week left at most.

"No, I don't think we can necessarily find the other party's body. We might as well start with Yan Xue and Xu Zhizhi...their crime is definitely less serious than murder..." The second son of the He family stretched out his hand, indicating that it would be better to strike first.

They relied on their money to do whatever they wanted in the county. They had been accustomed to bullying men and women for many years and would take advantage of others if they were not satisfied.

As for why Xu Zhizhi was added, it is of course because Xu Zhizhi is too beautiful.

That's no different from a fairy in the sky. Since the crime has already been committed, one more Xu Zhizhi won't make much difference.

Father He looked at his son coldly, "Put aside your thoughts. There are too many people in the crew. Do you really want to go to jail?"

"How can I live without you? Don't say that," said He's mother with a worried look on her face.

The eldest brother of the He family looked at his younger brother, his eyes flickered, and his expression was the same as his father's, advising his younger brother not to think that way.

After the conversation, everyone, exhausted from a night of hard work, returned to their rooms.

The old couple wanted to soak their feet, so the eldest and the second oldest went upstairs.

The second son of the He family looked at the closed living room door and complained quietly, "It's obviously easier to attack there with two people, why don't my parents agree! Besides, if we are well prepared, we won't be discovered. I have experience before! The other party can't find any evidence to arrest me."

"Keep your voice down. You don't know how timid your parents are. They have been worried about that man for more than ten years. I deliberately kept your affairs a secret and cleaned them up for you. Otherwise, how do you think you could escape?" The eldest son of the He family said in a low voice.

The second son of the He family turned around and looked at his eldest brother with a smile, "It's great to have a big brother. If it weren't for you, I would have no way to do it and would have been arrested long ago."

"We are brothers, you have to remember that no matter what the situation, I will stand behind you." The eldest brother of the He family reached out his hand and hugged his younger brother, patted his shoulder, his face full of care.

The second son of the He family was so moved that he reached out and patted his brother's shoulder, then quickly went upstairs.

The eldest brother of the He family looked up and heard his younger brother disappear around the corner of the stairs, a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.

After the two men went upstairs and slept with their wives, the couple downstairs were also discussing something.

"I don't think this may turn out the way we want. Neither of us remember where we buried the body. I'm afraid it will be in vain even if we dig for a week." Mother He sighed with a worried look on her face, her hands in the foot bath basin.

He's father, who was standing by, was used to taking out a cigarette, lighting it up and smoking with his triangular eyes squinting. There was a hint of ruthlessness and determination on his thin and dark face.

He looked at his wife, listened to the disappearing footsteps, and confirmed that the two brothers had left. Then he whispered quietly, "I know..."

"Then you better think of a way!" Looking at her husband who was still hiding his intention, He's mother became anxious and urged him in a low voice.

He's father smoked for a while, then threw the cigarette butt under his feet and stomped it out. "If they are really discovered, both brothers can't be in trouble."

"What?" He's mother didn't understand what she said and looked at her husband in confusion, "What are you talking about...wait. Do you mean..."

He's mother's body froze. She should have felt that the foot-washing water was hot, but now it felt a little cold. And the coldness went from her feet to her back and finally rushed to her brain.

Her face suddenly turned pale and she was in a daze for a long time.

The husband meant that if there was no other way, he had to find someone to sacrifice.

She had given birth to both her sons with great difficulty, and had raised them with great effort, so how could she bear to see them suffer?

She opened her mouth, wanting to retort that they could certainly do it, but the real situation was only known to them.

After thinking for a while, she spoke in a harsh voice, "Then... which one should I choose?"

She didn't want to choose, but after saying it, she had made up her mind.

"I don't know. I'll discuss it with the two of them. The one who gets in can leave a share of the inheritance for the wife who doesn't get in to raise the children." He's father said with narrowed eyes.

He's mother was stunned for a long time, and finally spoke slowly, "...Okay, if there is no other way and they are discovered, let them draw lots. They were both minors when they committed the crime, so they shouldn't be sentenced to many years."

"Well, as for the selection of candidates, choose someone who is sensible," Father He said thoughtfully.

He's mother clenched her fists subconsciously, because she understood what her husband meant. He had already chosen a candidate and didn't want to draw lots at all.

Thinking about how her husband obviously liked their younger son and how he was smart and sweet-spoken, she sighed deeply in her heart.

By then, I'm afraid I'll be able to persuade myself.

Fortunately, the eldest son has always been sensible and considerate of the family's thoughts. But the youngest son will definitely disagree. He is spoiled and will confess after being interrogated, and the plan will be ruined.

When the eldest son passed away, she would ask the younger son to take good care of the eldest son's wife and children, and give him some of the family property, and that should allow them to get along harmoniously.

Yes, my eldest son is always sensible and will definitely agree.

…

"Thank goodness you brought a knife, otherwise I don't know how vicious things those two people would have done." After they separated, Feng Jie said angrily.

After entering the village, Feng Jie began to feel nervous.

Especially since Director Zhou didn't allow their assistants to accompany them, this made her even more worried.

All that was on my mind were things like kidnapping, village bullies, etc. I was afraid that Xu Zhizhi would encounter something strange again.

Seeing that she couldn't accompany Xu Zhizhi and fearing that she might get into danger, Feng Jie prepared a blunt knife for her, and even prepared loose clothes and pants to ensure that no one would notice that Xu Zhizhi had these things.

As for why I didn't prepare a sharp knife, it was mainly because I was afraid of actually hurting someone. The main purpose of bringing a fruit knife is to intimidate. After scaring the other person for a short time, I can turn around and run away.

Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one. Running away is the best one.

Unexpectedly, it was actually used and really scared the opponent.

And because there was no subjective intention, and she brought fruit and a knife that could only be used to peel the fruit, no one could say that Xu Zhizhi intended to hurt others.

When Feng Jie really saw her idea come true, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Not for any reason, just because it wasn't a particularly vicious incident.

Perhaps because she had been with Xu Zhizhi for a long time, her tolerance for unexpected events had increased dramatically. Facing this kind of harassment, she had learned to watch peacefully and silently support Xu Zhizhi's fight.

The only puzzlement is that Xu Zhizhi did not do it herself today, but let Yan Xue take a video to express her forgiveness.

This is very inconsistent with Xu Zhizhi's style. If she had followed her style, the two would have been detained for at least 15 days.

She had a lot of questions in her mind, but she couldn't ask them because there were people around her.

Now that they were alone, she could finally speak.

The assistant at the side was silent. She only knew what Yun Ziwei had taught her: don't be too surprised when something happens around Xu Zhizhi. If there is danger, remember to hide by Xu Zhizhi's side. If there is no danger, always pay attention to whether there will be any danger.

Now is the time for her to put her professional ethics into practice and just listen to whatever she hears.

Xu Zhizhi looked at the silent assistant who came to pick them up, then looked at Feng Jie who was obviously confused. She looked around and did not answer immediately. Instead, she took the two people into the room and then slowly said, "Be careful these few days. Those two people may do something else. I feel a little uneasy."

"Then why did you let them go?" Feng Jie lowered her voice and asked with some confusion.

Xu Zhizhi stood up and poured a glass of water for Feng Jie, whose lips were dry from anxiety. She watched her take a sip of the water and said in a deep voice, "Their purpose is not to harass us, but to do something else. I'm afraid that if I miss it, I'll be dragged into it."

The assistant looked confused. She had learned from the WeChat message sent by Feng Jie that it was just two hooligans harassing two people. How could it be extended to other things?

"What could be their purpose? Are they trying to gain fame through hype?" There are many people who want to be internet celebrities these days, and it is not uncommon to see them trying to ride on the popularity of other celebrities or even deliberately appear on the same stage with celebrities. But this is not a reason for Xu Zhizhi to let them go.

Also, what do you mean they still have actions!

She stared at Xu Zhizhi with wide eyes, very curious about the answer.

Xu Zhizhi lowered her eyes, her eyelashes as long as crow feathers trembled slightly, and she said doubtfully: "I'm not sure why exactly. I only know that their motives are not pure. It seems that they want Yan Xue to cancel the donation for road construction. But I don't know why they do this, because if this road is opened, it will be a good thing for the villagers."

Rural people value their homesteads and land in the village and feel that they have returned to their roots. This is their root, and they naturally want to come back to retire in the future, and the better and more convenient the conditions, the better.

It doesn't make sense to prevent things from getting better.

"No way?" Feng Jie didn't believe it. She felt that the other party in the village office was just speaking in anger. It was just that the local tycoon didn't care about other people's money and wanted them to get out.

Xu Zhizhi looked up at her, without refutation, but reviewed and analyzed in a low voice, "Today, Yan Xue and I were actually standing in the same place, with no distinction between who was in front and who was behind. But they came up and chose to harass Yan Xue."

The assistant opened her mouth slightly, watching Xu Zhizhi return to her fairy-like beauty with delicate features and fair skin in just over half a month.

Did he harass Yan Xue first?

If someone else said this, they would just think that the other person is too arrogant, and they wouldn't be afraid of being laughed at. But when Xu Zhizhi said this, it would only make people agree.

After listening to the explanation, Feng Jie was also convinced by Xu Zhizhi.

It was very unusual that he didn't choose Xu Zhizhi first, but went for Yan Xue instead.

It’s not that Yan Xue is not beautiful. On the contrary, she has a pretty face, a good figure, a gentle and generous temperament, and is also a recognized beauty in the entertainment industry.

But compared with Xu Zhizhi, there is a big gap. Xu Zhizhi's beauty is at the top in the entertainment industry.

This is not Feng Jie praising Xu Zhizhi, but a public recognition.

After all, before Xu Zhizhi's acting skills were developed, she was able to get many roles in the entertainment industry that values ​​acting skills.

Xu Zhizhi looked at the expressions of the two and continued, "The two of them had a clear goal, they were heading straight for Yan Xue, and I was just a byproduct."

Then she stood in front of Yan Xue and taught them a lesson.

After more than a month of physical training, coupled with the system's [explosive power of a mental patient], Xu Zhizhi's strength was quite good, so she quickly subdued the two men.

Xu Zhizhi continued speaking.

At first she just felt something was a little strange, but she didn't suspect anything.

But in less than five minutes, the mother of the He brothers appeared outside the village office and cried. You know, it takes more than ten minutes to get from his home to the village office even if he walks fast.

She also saw that the two of them had less than three sentences in their conversation with their mother, but the mother's words contained much more information. It was obvious that they had prepared in advance, and their words were coherent and reasonable.

And from time to time he looked at Yan Xue, she was just an accessory.

His words implied that he disdained Yan Xue's donation.

There are also two brothers who would be mentioned from time to time.

"When they realized it wasn't working later on, they got anxious. You should have heard what they said, Feng Jie." Xu Zhizhi looked at Feng Jie.

Feng Jie nodded thoughtfully. According to Xu Zhizhi's analysis, these were entirely possible.

After thinking for a while, she suddenly looked at Xu Zhizhi with wide eyes, "Zhizhi, do you think they can't stand seeing the villagers doing better than they are? Some people are very selfish. They have money, but they can't stand seeing others have money, even if it's just a small amount."

The assistant was scratching her head, feeling like she was just a decoration.

“Not like that…” Xu Zhizhi shook her head.

Feng Jie also shook her head, "No, if that's the case, there's no need for you to let them go, unless you find something else wrong."

"You guessed right," Xu Zhizhi looked at Feng Jie with admiration, then slowly said, "I remember that you shouldn't have come to dinner so late because Yan Xue's assistant brought you with her to help pack up the props."

Feng Jie and the assistant nodded. That’s right.

Xu Zhizhi continued: "So you guys were late, and Yan Xue suddenly had an idea and took me out for a walk..."

What she didn't realize at first was that Yan Xue was so anxious to forgive that she didn't even bother to ask for her opinion. That's when she really became alert.

Xu Zhizhi said again: "She seemed to be afraid that I would not forgive her, so she took the lead."

Feng Jie thought for a moment, "Yes, I was a little dissatisfied with Yan Xue just now. I thought she was too good-tempered. How could she be so forgiving of sexual harassment! Especially when we were in the right."

Xu Zhizhi nodded. The key point was that Yan Xue was just a superficial person. In fact, she had understood her personality and temper over the past few days. In some matters, Yan Xue's hidden temper was quite hot, and she was not a clay figure.

It's not a clay figure, why is it made to look like that?

It's hard not to suspect that she did it on purpose.

"What the hell are these people talking about? It's so annoying!" Feng Jie took a deep breath, her face twisted and distorted when she thought about having to be on guard against two grown men.

The assistant raised his hand and said timidly, "I think the key is to build the road!"

"Yes, the key point is the road! One side insisted on repairing it, while the other side insisted on not repairing it, and they were not hesitant to do that..." Xu Zhizhi was curious about what secret was that would cause such a quarrel between the two parties.

However, after thinking for a long time, the three people still couldn't solve the mystery.

I know it is a road, but what about the road?

Perhaps an opportunity is needed to unveil everything.

Xu Zhizhi thought about it and asked the two of them to go back and lock the door.

The two nodded, and Feng Jie also reminded Xu Zhizhi to pay attention and be careful.

Xu Zhizhi then went to wash up. When she came back, she closed the door, fastened the latch, put away the cup, and finally fell on the bed and took out her cell phone.

She felt that she was caught in a conspiracy and in order to avoid being passively overturned and becoming cannon fodder for others.

Xu Zhizhi was well aware of the cruelty of some people.

She took out her cell phone and started to contact Qin Su, mainly to find out whether any murders or vicious cases had occurred in the village.

To understand these, Qin Su is the fastest channel.

To know but not to know: I feel like something is not right recently. Captain Qin, can you help me check if there has been any case in Hejia Village?

Qin Su was very reliable and quickly replied to Xu Zhizhi, saying that he would investigate as soon as possible.

Xu Zhizhi thanked the other party, picked up her phone and started searching for news about Yan Xue.

The other party entered the entertainment industry when he was 17 or 18 years old, several years earlier than her. His path was not smooth, and he was unknown at the beginning because he had no background.

Later, when the dramas she starred in became popular, she gradually rose to fame and gained a foothold in the entertainment industry.

There's not much to be found in his resume, except that he comes from a scholarly family, grew up abroad, is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and ballet, and likes to exercise every day.

I can't tell anything about the others, but the last one is real.

After seeing the end, Xu Zhizhi simply gave up.

Compared to these, acting well is the real thing.

I will start being an internet celebrity tomorrow. In order to make the plot convincing, I have to shoot videos that can be broadcast and become popular.

For example, shooting the process of chopping vegetables and cooking.

The original owner was a sober person and did not take the bad track because it was a short track and it was difficult to really attract spectators.

At most, they will sympathize with such bloggers, but they will not really follow them or really like them. To make videos, you must make them high-quality, so that you can compete in the high-end arena.

So she followed the rural style of well-known domestic bloggers and decorated her house to give it the feeling of farming and retiring in the countryside.

She usually prepares a variety of dishes with local characteristics, and when she eats with her children, you can see that she is very well-educated.

Make bamboo weaving, make wine with sorghum or starberry, pick plums or peaches, and take photos of rural scenery.

She has a low level of education, but she knows from watching videos that this is how people like her. She is fierce and tough, and she knows that the outside world is a good place for people like her to live, and people like to see independent people like her living well in the countryside.

So she conceived, shot and edited the film herself.

She invested a lot, and she invested a lot of the compensation she received.

All of these have to be filmed, including how to conceive and how the ideas take shape.

The main point is to convince the audience, and there will be a lot of material to choose from in the later editing.

Director Zhou is very cold-hearted. Xu Zhizhi filmed these, and she had to do a lot of other things.

Early the next morning, Xu Zhizhi filmed herself driving a tricycle, transporting and planting flowers and plants, renovating her house and even building a wall.

Of course, these were not shot in one day, and she was not the only one shooting.

Her brother-in-law, her parents-in-law, and the villagers all take turns to appear. During this period, she has not yet completely cleansed herself up, so there are still scenes of quarrels and scenes of her being ridiculed.

People tend to ridicule things they have never come into contact with.

This is a person's growth line, and from this time on, Zhao Fuxiu began to notice that Yang Mai was different.

She realized it quickly and started to help Yang Mai.

Thinking about the plot and how to shoot the scene, Xu Zhizhi slowly fell asleep with her phone in her hand.

When she woke up the next day, Xu Zhizhi's cell phone was under the bed.

She picked it up calmly and got up to wash.

She opened the door when Feng Jie knocked, and after seeing her finish washing up, she skillfully opened the bottles and jars for her.

Especially her hands, which have become very worn out during this period of time.

Although it is necessary for filming, once the filming is completed, you have to find a way to repair it immediately.

The entertainment industry has very high requirements for female stars, with very high requirements on skin condition, eye expression, figure, demeanor and overall appearance.

Even if Xu Zhizhi doesn't care, she can't help but be influenced, because being labeled as lazy in skin care is not a good thing for her. Her reputation will deteriorate, and she will get fewer endorsements and invitations for TV series and movies.

You can't be careless when it comes to making money!

After a quick wipe, Xu Zhizhi went out.

When they arrived at the set, they saw Yan Xue. Xu Zhizhi said as usual, "Good morning, senior."

"Good morning," Yan Xue said in a gentle voice.

Then she changed into her costumes and put on makeup, and the props asked Xu Zhizhi if she could drive a tricycle.

Xu Zhizhi nodded and said yes, this thing is only slightly more difficult than an electric car.

After the other party confirmed it, they left.

Xu Zhizhi looked at herself in the mirror, watched the makeup artist work, and glanced at Yan Xue out of the corner of her eye, "Senior, you weren't scared yesterday, were you? Those two were pretty fierce."

"I was a little scared, but only a little," Yan Xue said without looking away.

Xu Zhizhi sighed, "Fortunately, they were not detained. If they were scared, it would have been a shame."

Yan Xue paused for a moment and glanced at Xu Zhizhi.

"Yes, but it's also for the good of the crew. Everyone in the village is united. It would be bad if a small matter escalates into a big one. Not only will it waste time, but it will also easily get out of hand and be known by netizens, which is also troublesome." She spoke softly, with a little worry.

Xu Zhizhi smiled and said, "Yeah! If things get out of hand, it will be bad for everyone."

Although she knew it was just an excuse, Xu Zhizhi still frowned.

It was simple, she didn't like this outcome, she didn't like people who had committed crimes being let off so easily.

I don’t know what this person’s purpose is.

I hope he's not covering up anything bad, otherwise she'll be really troubled.

After the brief conversation, the room fell silent and neither of them spoke again.

Makeup artists are very tactful and know that there are certain topics that cannot be addressed and certain words that cannot be said, so no one asks and no one looks at them strangely.

After putting on makeup, the two went out.

Before filming began, Xu Zhizhi needed to familiarize herself with the tricycle.

It is a red electric tricycle, a very new car that Yang Mai bought to pick up his two children from kindergarten in town and for daily use.

After Xu Zhizhi got on, she inserted the key and slowly stepped on the accelerator.

The car started and Xu Zhizhi also started driving on the road.

She did know how to drive. After all, in her previous life, she had saved money for a long time to buy an electric car for internship so that she could commute to get off work more conveniently.

At that time, she was afraid of falling and hurting herself, so she walked very carefully and it took her a long time to learn how to do it well.

After driving three laps, Xu Zhizhi got off and started filming this part of the scene.

You have to drive back and forth many times and shoot from several angles.

The most important thing is that it takes seven or eight trips to and from there.

The crew also wanted to use a trailer to put the tricycle on a platform so that it could be filmed steadily, but the road in the mountain valley was too bad to do so.

After more than an hour of shooting, it was finally completed.

After the photo shoot, we ran into some villagers on Yangmai Road, and they talked about their plan to buy flowers in Yangmai.

Yang Mai described his ideas, and on the surface the communication between the two sides was smooth.

But after they left, the villagers started to murmur things like "money is money" and "Yang Mai is a spendthrift woman".

The role is very daily, Xu Zhizhi has an easier time, but the other party is not a professional actor, so it's not natural.

As a result, this scene took a whole morning to shoot.

This is considered a daily routine and no one gets angry about it.

Have lunch and a short rest at noon.

The following scenes are about Yang Mai's rivalry with his mother-in-law and brother-in-law, as well as his heart-to-heart with Zhao Fuxiu, which are also the scenes before he is whitewashed.

Yang Mai moved the flowers and plants he bought to the yard. While he was moving, his mother-in-law and brother-in-law came.

At this time, the two families no longer had any contact with each other. Faced with their arrival, Yang Mai simply ignored them and continued to set up his mobile phone to film himself planting flowers.

She wore a sun-proof bamboo hat and a simple white buttoned cotton dress. With her pretty face and clean and neat movements, she played the role of a serious worker very well.

"Oh, now that you're rich, you've learned how to grow flowers!" came the sarcastic voice of the mother-in-law.

The brother-in-law beside him also sneered, "He is preparing to become an internet celebrity, but he doesn't even consider whether he has the luck to do so."

I met some villagers on the road before, and soon the news that Yang Mai wanted to shoot a video spread throughout the village.

Although the two people felt that Yangmai would not become popular, they were still prepared for the worst.

And they were also planning to have Yang Mai become their daughter-in-law, so after making plans, the two of them hurried over.

All of these will be shot, but they will be shot first based on the existing suitable scenes that have been planned, so these will be shot first.

After the two of them finished speaking, Yang Mai, who was squatting, slowly raised his head and fixed his eyes on the two of them, "Get lost!"

A concise word with full power.

The brother-in-law was so angry that he was about to go up to Yang Mai and teach him a lesson, but was stopped by his mother.

She looked at Yang Mai, "I gave you the money because it was not easy for you to raise two children, not to waste it! If you return these, I will forgive you."

There was a brief silence at the scene, and then the sound was heard.

"What? Don't you understand what I'm saying? You can spend my money however I want!" Yang Mai said in a cold voice.

The two refused to accept, and the mother-in-law began to howl in a shrill voice, "Ah! My daughter-in-law is not obedient! She has grown wings and started to talk back. You damned underworld star, you killed my son and still want to talk back to me..."

Yang Mai stood up abruptly upon hearing this and picked up the lawn mower beside him.

"Come on! Say it again! Say it again!" Yang Mai's expression turned fierce, and he started to curse, "Who can be worse than you! You are a cannibal! You can't afford a daughter-in-law, so you set your sights on me! No family wants to raise a lazy guy..."

The two of them started arguing with each other, and the brother-in-law was timid and didn't dare to step forward.

After talking for a while, the two of them couldn't agree more and started trying to pull out the flowers of the poplar and the succulents they had bought.

Yang Mai refused to be outdone and wielded a lawn mower to kill the two men.

The two were afraid of someone like Yang Mai who was not afraid of death, so they left in disgrace again.

Yang Mai chased the people out first, and Zhao Fuxiu came right after.

"Crack! It's over!"

Director Zhou shouted happily.

There was talk at the scene, and before the next scene began, I had to clean up the scene and touch up my makeup.

Xu Zhizhi stood there while the makeup artist began to touch up her makeup carefully.

If the makeup is spotty under the high-definition lens, it will affect the audience's perception.

After resting for ten minutes, Yan Xue and Xu Zhizhi began to take their positions.

As Director Zhou called out "start", the two people on the set began to immerse themselves in the play.

Yang Mai looked at the poverty alleviation officer Zhao Fuxiu standing at the door, and said impatiently, "What? Are you here to laugh at me?"

Zhao Fuxiu had already realized the contradictions in Yang Mai's family and why Yang Mai was unwilling to give up the land, so she came to persuade him.

"I wanted to ask you about your idea of ​​buying flowers. Maybe I can help." She looked at the flowers and plants on the scene, thinking about the previous conflict, and chose not to talk about the land first, but talked about other things.

Yang Mai didn't want to explain, so he squatted down and continued planting flowers.

Zhao Fuxiu knew that the conflict in previous communication had not been resolved, so she stepped forward to help.

From time to time, I would compliment the flowers on their beauty and ask her how many she wanted to plant.

Yang Mai didn't want to answer at first, but was annoyed and could only simply say that he wanted to make a video of planting flowers.

Zhao Fuxiu watched and offered to help Yang Mai take the photos.

Yang Mai didn't say whether he agreed or not, so Zhao Fuxiu took the initiative to help.

Then there was a long period of pantomime, with the camera focusing on the two people and filming silently, without any extra sound on the scene.

It was not until the planting was completed that Yang Mai took the initiative to talk about the land.

She still disagreed, and persistence was engraved in her bones.

Zhao Fuxiu began to ask why she disagreed.

Finally, they talked about the purpose of growing flowers, and Yang Mai talked about his idea of ​​becoming a blogger.

She thought she would be laughed at by Zhao Fuxiu, but unexpectedly, she received Zhao Fuxiu's strong approval.

The two hearts came close to each other for the first time, and then they talked about their ideas.

Finally, we reached a consensus.

The agreement was reached, and for the first time both parties sat together without any tension.

Zhao Fuxiu started asking some family questions, and Yang Mai became more generous after being recognized, and began to speak in a gentle voice.

The camera focuses on her.

For the first time, Xu Zhizhi appeared in an ordinary scene of peaceful times, rather than an exciting killing scene.

"Okay! It's over!"

Director Zhou shouted loudly.

Later, I took some close-up shots and some shots of the back.

After we finished filming, it was already dark and no longer suitable for filming, so we had a chance to rest.

Tomorrow will be a heart-to-heart talk. After thinking it through, Yang Mai will take the initiative to give up three feet of land to build the village road.

The NGs today were mostly about emotions and lines, so the delay was not that long. It was mainly due to the breaks and some minor details.

After dinner, Xu Zhizhi took the initiative to invite them to visit Uncle and Aunt He Li to discuss funding.

Originally, she planned to wait until He Li's mother and brother left before going there, as she didn't want to see them.

But He Li had to go back to school, and the next time she would come back would be five days later. By then, she would perform both day and night.

Go there now while you have time.

Yan Xue already felt guilty towards Xu Zhizhi, so she naturally agreed.

Just like that, Yan Xue, Xu Zhizhi and Feng Jie went to He Li's uncle and aunt's house.

Uncle and aunt He Li were very welcoming to the two and quickly welcomed them in.

He Li's parents were not at home. They said they had gone back to her parents' home.

He Li did not go with them. Her mother didn't like her very much now and scolded her for paying money and goods every day. She didn't want to go after her and be scolded.

After Xu Zhizhi sat down, the two sides exchanged a few pleasantries. Just as Xu Zhizhi was about to speak, her eyes fell on the head-mounted mining lamp next to the red wooden TV cabinet.

Sometimes all it takes to know something is an opportunity.
