Chapter 200 200

Mother Jiang didn't say anything about Father Jiang's happiness, but continued to wash her food, feed her chickens, and weed the peanuts in the vegetable garden at the back.

She didn't know that all the changes in her hometown were brought by Jiang Xiang. She was blocked from information and her world was blocked.

Even though she came to Shenzhen, which was changing and progressing at a rapid pace, and even though she was near the train station where information was most circulated, she could receive a lot of information and changes from the outside world every day, but her world was like a closed door. The news from the outside could not come in, and she didn't care. She just quietly did her own thing and fulfilled her mission in this world.

Her mission was to be a good daughter when she was young, to be a good woman and a good wife when she got married, to raise her children until they grew up and got married, and to have grandchildren in the future. It seemed that her life mission and task had been completed.

After almost three years in Shenzhen, she still couldn't understand the local dialect. All the communication was done by Jiang's father. She couldn't read, so she couldn't read newspapers. Her only source of information was the TV in the store next door that was turned on all day long.

She didn't like to watch boring news. Now her favorite show every day, which she never got tired of, was "Happy Little Swallow". She was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling, and she followed the audience to scold the queen, scold Rong Mama, and scold the bad people they thought.

While she was calm, she occasionally looked up at the sky, and felt a little confused.

Women can also share the land.

In Shenzhen, where she lives now, women can get land and money from selling land. The female landlords they rented houses from also got money. They lived a carefree life, wearing a big gold ring, collecting rent, playing mahjong, and living a life she could never imagine.

But all this still had nothing to do with her. She was still poor, still needed to work hard, and still worked hard to live a good life.

On October 7, Jiang Xi and Song Peifeng, together with Tong Jingang, Jiang Bai, and Jiang Yeye, who were flying for the first time, went to Shanghai Airport to fly to Beijing.

When Jiang Xi proposed to take Grandpa Jiang to Beijing, to visit Beijing University, one of the highest institutions of learning in the Flower Country, to visit Tian'an Gate, and to climb the Great Wall, Grandpa Jiang's heart was surging, but when he learned that he had to take a plane, he refused.

"No! I won't go!" Grandpa Jiang shook his sleeves and turned his back: "You guys can go, but you have to take an old man like me. It's so expensive to take a plane. I won't go!" Grandpa Jiang

was very stubborn.

In fact, he was full of yearning for Beijing, but he was afraid of spending money.

It costs a lot of money to take a train from Shanghai to Beijing, not to mention taking a plane. How much money would it cost, and there are so many people!

Thinking of how much money it would cost to take a plane, Grandpa Jiang was simply heartbroken.

Jiang Xi had no choice but to lie to Grandpa Jiang again: "Oh, it can be reimbursed, we don't have to spend any money!"

Grandpa Jiang didn't believe it: "You lied to me again! How can you take a plane without spending money?"

"If you don't believe me, ask my second brother!" Jiang Xi dragged Jiang Bai out decisively, "Second brother, show grandpa the invitation letter you received, right?" Jiang Xi called out to Tong Jingang, "Brother Jingang, show grandpa your invitation letter, right? It's free and we'll give you money!"

Tong Jingang immediately stepped forward and handed over his invitation letter. He used his eloquent tongue to say to Grandpa Jiang, "Not only will it be reimbursed, but we'll also give you money. If Baizi goes to the capital, they'll give him 10,000!"

Grandpa Jiang looked at Tong Jingang as if he were a fool, "Even robbing money is not that fast!"

"Hey, old man, you still don't believe it, right?" He took out his remittance slip: "Not only Baizi has money, I have too!" He pointed to the two thousand yuan in his passbook and showed it to Grandpa Jiang.

Grandpa Jiang leaned back, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the number on the passbook: "Isn't this two thousand?"

"Yes, I have two thousand, but our Baizi has ten thousand!" He put his arm around Jiang Bai's shoulders, but Jiang Bai pushed him away with disgust.

Grandpa Jiang didn't understand, "Then why only give Baizi 10,000? What kind of job pays so much?"

"Oh, you won't understand even if I tell you." Tong Jingang pointed to the TV series "The King's Guard" which was being shown during the National Day holiday, "Isn't this our Baizihong? The price must be different!"

If the most popular TV series in the first half of this year, or even the entire summer vacation, was "Happy Little Swallow", then the most popular TV series in the second half of the year would be "The King's Guard".

"The King's Guard" has a huge audience group. Even though people's attention was focused on "Little Swallow" for the entire first half of the year, it was aired in April, and was aired once and again during the summer vacation. After watching it twice in a row, a large part of the audience was tired of it and needed a new TV series to change their taste. Among all the TV series this year, "The King's Guard" had a viewership rating of over 10% as soon as it was released, and it has been rising since then. Even if its viewership rating cannot catch up with "Little Swallow", it is already a very outstanding TV series among the series of TV series in the second half of this year.

In addition to the huge readership, the TV series also has the best performances by handsome men and beautiful women in the TV series "Little Swallow", and the solid and funny storyline.

In this era, martial arts themes have a huge audience.

This year, the "Mass Film Festival" organized by the Flower Film Association will be held on October 16, a week after the National Day. The entire National Day period is the most intense time for the film festival to vote for the most popular actors and actresses.

This year, because SMS voting was added to the voting mechanism, the Film Association and telecom operators cooperated to publish the voting information and voting methods not only in the magazine "Wanhua Film" sponsored by the Film Association, but also on the movie channel of TV programs.

During the entire short holiday, anyone who pays attention to movies is voting for their favorite actors and actresses.

These voting groups are mainly young people, and this group is the one that likes to watch "The King's Woman" the most. In particular, a large part of them are the audience of "The King's Woman". The magazine "Wu Xia" is frantically canvassing votes for Jiang Bo in the magazine, which means that many young people, whether they are readers of "White Snake", readers of "The King's Woman", or audiences of the TV series "The King's Woman" and the movie "White Snake", are voting for Jiang Bo.

As the saying goes, "You vote, I vote, Jiang Bai will be able to debut soon." Jiang Bai, who did not do any publicity for this matter, was voted by readers, audiences, the production team, and "Wu Xia" magazine. He received 30,000 to 40,000 more votes than the second-placed well-known veteran actor. His chances of winning the most popular male actor this year are very high.

Therefore, the "White Snake" crew strongly invited Jiang Bai to Beijing to participate in the Wanhua Film Festival.

But Jiang Bai had to go to class, so he didn't want to take leave, which made the crew and the production team anxious.

The reason why they are so anxious to make this happen is that although the movie "White Snake" has been taken off the screen, the subsequent awards are also related to the subsequent income from other copyrights, such as the most popular VCD discs.

These subsequent incomes are still a huge and continuous income. The more awards they win, the better the reputation will naturally be, and the higher the copyright fees will be, and the more and better VCD discs can be sold.

Even if Jiang Bai only won the Most Popular Actor Award, it seems that it has nothing to do with the movie "White Snake", but how can it have nothing to do with it? Jiang Bai is from their "White Snake" crew. Jiang Bai's award means that their "White Snake" crew has won an award, which is a big gimmick when promoting it.

Therefore, not only did the Flower Planting Film Association send an invitation to Jiang Bo long ago, inviting him to participate in the "Wanhua Film Festival", but the crew also offered him a publicity fee of 10,000 yuan in order to get him to come, and also covered his travel expenses, food and accommodation.

Because when Jiang Bai received the invitation, he hesitated for a moment, and the first thing he asked was: "Can Tong Jingang go?"

Tong Jingang is also one of the actors in "White Snake" and has always been with Jiang Bai. They had no intention of inviting Tong Jingang, but when he heard Jiang Bai's question, he changed his mind and said, "Of course, the travel expenses, food and accommodation are included like you."

Jiang Bai was still hesitating whether to go or not. Everyone in the "White Snake" crew knew that he and Tong Jingang were good friends, so they said, "Do you want to ask Tong Jingang?"

Tong Jingang had already decided on the path he would take in the future. In order to make connections and see the world, he naturally urged Jiang Bai to go with such a good opportunity.

Jiang Bai then reluctantly agreed to attend the film festival.

The producers and directors of the White Snake crew already knew Jiang Bo's character, and they would go if they were paid.

The box office of White Snake was so high that all the main creative staff and investors were counting money until their hands cramped, so they were naturally very generous. Not only did they cover Jiang Bo and Tong Jingang's food and accommodation, but they also gave them a salary of 10,000 yuan.

Even Tong Jingang, who went along to take advantage of the popularity, was given 2,000 yuan.

Grandpa Jiang was not stupid. He said, "I can only report you. How can I report you?"

Grandpa Jiang was no longer the Grandpa Jiang who had just come out of a small mountain village and knew nothing about the outside world. Although he was not talkative, he always believed in the principle of listening more, watching more and talking less. He saw everything and kept it in mind. He was no longer so easy to fool.

Tong Jingang saw that he could not persuade Grandpa Jiang, so he threw up his hands helplessly to Jiang Qing.

Jiang Xi was furious: "Do you still want to see Tian'anmen? Do you want to watch the national flag raising? Do you want to visit my school, Jingcheng University? Do you want to go back to your hometown after the tour and tell your grandpas that you have been to Jingcheng University, seen Tian'anmen, climbed the Great Wall, and told them that you have been on a plane?" Grandpa

Jiang said this, and he really wanted to do it!

As long as he thought about going back and telling those old guys that he had been on a plane, visited Tian'anmen, visited Jingcheng University, that guy... he really reached the peak of his life.

Just thinking about that scene, Grandpa Jiang smiled so hard that the corners of his mouth stretched to the back of his ears, and his teeth were not visible.

Finally, I can go home and brag to my old friends. This temptation tempted Grandpa Jiang and made him willing to close the store. He followed Jiang Xi, Jiang Bai and others to the airport.

Not to mention Grandpa Jiang was excited, Tong Jingang and Jiang Bai, who were flying for the first time, were also very excited and nervous.

Tong Jingang and Jiang Bai, dragging their luggage and carrying their backpacks, looked here and touched there, following Jiang Xi step by step, trying not to look like a bumpkin who was flying for the first time, but remembering the process of flying a plane bit by bit in their hearts. The next time they fly by themselves, they can act like experienced people. When chatting with classmates, they can also casually say that they have been on a plane! (^o^)/~

Grandpa Jiang was the same. He couldn't see enough along the way. He kept asking Jiang Xi: "What is that?" "What is this for?"

Jiang Xi patiently explained to Grandpa Jiang along the way. Jiang Bo and Tong Jingang both listened with their ears tilted up. They can tell others next time!

They were still excited when they got on the plane. They looked out the window from time to time. When the plane flew high, their ears felt a little uncomfortable, but they didn't care. They had felt this feeling when they went to the vertical restaurant for the first time. It was caused by the pressure difference. They were only interested in the clouds outside the window and the shrinking ground and buildings under the clouds.

The airplane meal was distributed in the middle of the journey. It was still bread and milk, but they were very happy. This food was foreign stuff! Western food!

Even after getting off the plane, several people were still excited, and several pairs of eyes were not enough to look around, looking around at the capital of this era.

Because the travel expenses were reimbursed, they didn't hesitate to take a taxi to Liudaokou, to the house that Jiang Xi and Song Peifeng rented outside the school.

The houses rented by Jiang Xi and Song Peifeng were both tube-shaped buildings, one upstairs and one downstairs, close to each other. They first went to the house rented by Song Peifeng, opened the door and went in, and looked around casually.

The floor area of ​​the house is only more than 40 square meters, with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. The area is very small and the light is a little dim. It may seem cramped for a family, but it is very comfortable for one person. The living room is relatively spacious, with a dining table and a computer desk.

Jiang Xi saw Jiang Bai and Grandpa Jiang looking around Song Peifeng's house, as if they wanted to see if there were any of her things there, so he smiled and said, "This is Peifeng's rented house, my rented house is upstairs, Grandpa, come on, I'll take you upstairs."

Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Bai looked around, and it was a room for a boy living alone. They looked around, and there was nothing of their sister's things, so they stopped looking and followed Jiang Xi upstairs.

They already knew that Jiang Xi and Song Peifeng were dating, and they had no opinion on their sister's partner, but they felt that their sister was still young, only a freshman, and there was no rush to fall in love and get married.

Just now in Song Peifeng's house, Tong Jingang could still hold back, but when he saw that Jiang Xi's rented house also had computers, he ran over excitedly, "Sister, how many computers do you have!"

Shanghai has computers, and Beijing also has computers. Nowadays, a computer is expensive. He would not buy one even if he saved money. Sister actually has so many computers.

Rich! Sister is simply rich and inhumane!

Jiang Bai and Jiang Yeye, mainly seeing that the things in the house belonged to Jiang Xi alone, and there was no Song Peifeng, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he hadn't lived there for several days, there was some dust on the table. Jiang Bai put down his bag and took a rag to clean it.

Grandpa Jiang sat in this small, gloomy house, looking around with a relaxed smile on his face.

He didn't think the house was small at all, and even felt that the house was filled with the unique bookish atmosphere of intellectuals in Beijing and near Beijing University. Now his granddaughter also lived in such a small building, studying and living like the people in the city, which was more beautiful than the most beautiful dream he had when he was young.

Tong Jingang wanted to surf the Internet when he saw the computer, but when he saw Jiang Bai cleaning, he felt a little embarrassed to join in. However, he was rather careless in his work, unlike Jiang Bai who was meticulous. He cleaned up every dusty corner, arranged the books neatly according to the size and type of the books on the desk and bookshelf, and put away the clothes thrown on the sofa, washed those that needed to be washed, and dried those that needed to be dried.

Soon, Jiang Wu's small house, which was originally a little messy, was cleaned up and tidy. Even the chairs by the dining table were placed with their backs in a straight line.

Jiang Xi didn't care about his second brother's cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder. He took Grandpa Jiang back to his room and said, "Grandpa, you can sleep here at night. Second brother and Brother Jin Gang can pull out the sofa outside and sleep on the sofa."

Song Peifeng put his luggage downstairs in the house he rented and came up. Hearing this, he said, "Second brother and Brother Jin Gang can live in my place."

Tong Jingang was thinking that the sofa was too short and he and Jiang Bai couldn't sleep on it. Hearing this, he immediately came over and put his arm around Song Peifeng's shoulders, "Well, that's perfect. I'll sleep here with my brother-in-law tonight."

Although the sofa here can be pulled out to use as a bed, because the house is small, the landlord bought a small sofa at first.

Tong Jingang and Jiang Bai are two people, one is 85 meters tall and the other is 1.84 meters tall. If they sleep on the sofa at night, their legs will be stretched out of the sofa. It is already quite cold in Beijing in October.

Tong Jingang has also had thoughts about Jiang Xi, but his thoughts are simple. He and Jiang Bai are good brothers. If he can get along with Jiang Xi in the future, won’t he and his good brother become a family? Good friends become brothers-in-law, and they can play ball together every day in the future, and they can also take Jiang Xi to go out and play with their brothers.

Who knew that Jiang Xi was not an ordinary person? After Jiang Xi's grades got better and better, and his achievements became higher and higher, he completely gave up this idea. Well, I am not worthy of the girl.

Now Jiang Xi has a partner, another legendary figure in Wucheng and Wuzhong. Tong Jingang thinks that the two are a perfect match, the girl is talented and the boy is handsome, and they are quite compatible. He calls Song Peifeng "brother-in-law" affectionately

. Song Peifeng was not used to Tong Jingang's familiarity, but he felt very comfortable when he called him brother-in-law.

Song Peifeng's one-month military training made his skin darker. The originally cold young man now has a somewhat cold temperament when he doesn't smile. However, this cold temperament disappeared when Tong Jingang called him "brother-in-law". The corners of his lips kept rising, leaving only a bright smile like the moon.

Grandpa Jiang on the other end was still asking Jiang Xi, "Where do you live?"

"I sleep in the dormitory. First-year college students are not allowed to live outside and must live on campus. I've rented this house and it's been empty. You've finally taken a flight to Beijing, so don't rush back. You can stay

here for a while." Grandpa Jiang put his hands behind his back and toured the house that Jiang Xi rented in Beijing, saying, "I don't live here. It would make me anxious to death if I had to live here alone. I'm doing well in Shanghai. I've just gotten familiar with the place. Don't ask me to come over again." Grandpa Jiang said as he toured, "Just live your own life, study hard, and take care of yourself. It doesn't matter where I am." As he walked, he said slowly, "Besides, your second brother is in Shanghai." If he

really came to Beijing and had to adapt to a new environment, he really couldn't do it.

After resting for more than an hour, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Xi took them to visit Yanyuan.

In fact, Jiang Xi has been in Jingcheng University for more than a year. Every day, she is either in class, on the way to class, or on the way to the cafeteria. The only time she visits the campus is when she is running. This is her first time to visit the Jingcheng University campus without any purpose, just for the sake of visiting.

Jiang Xi knows what is most important to Grandpa Jiang, so she went to Koda near the school to buy a few rolls of plastic, and then rented four bicycles. Jiang Bo took Grandpa Jiang to visit Jingcheng University on bicycles.

Tomorrow, in the evening, many students have already returned to school. Some students who live far away and need to take a train for several days and nights to get there have not returned to their hometowns. There are many people reading in the library, walking in the school, and playing football on the playground. The learning atmosphere is very strong.

Grandpa Jiang even feels like a pilgrim, walking in this campus that he dared not even dream of. This campus used to be as far away from him as the stars in the sky, but now he is in it, and his granddaughter has been admitted to this palace that he dared not even dream of.

He sat on the back seat of Jiang Bai's bicycle and felt that he could not see anything.

At each famous spot, Jiang Xi stopped to tell Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Bo the stories of this place and took photos for them.

Grandpa Jiang listened very carefully. When Jiang Xi took photos for him, he did not feel awkward at all as he did at the gate of No. 1 Middle School. He cooperated very well. Although every pose and expression was the same, he was very serious and solemn.

From Boya Tower to Weimin Lake, to the sculpture of Mr. Cai, and then to the two Huabiao.

At each place, Jiang Xi would take many photos.

In her previous life, she didn't know until her grandfather passed away that there were so few photos of Grandpa Jiang that they were not enough for her to miss him. So as if to make up for her past life, Jiang Xi took photos of Grandpa Jiang all the way, some looking at the camera, some not, some walking with their hands behind their backs, some sitting in the back seat of Jiang Bo and looking back at this famous university.

Of course, they also took a group photo.

It was not until late at night that Jiang Xi took Grandpa Jiang to the cafeteria of Beijing University.

The cafeteria today is different from the big cafeteria he ate in when he was young. There are all kinds of meat, vegetables, white rice, white steamed buns, and so on.

He looked at his grandson and granddaughter, who were eating big white steamed buns, eating vegetables and drinking soup. During this time, Tong Jingang was joking and joking, and the granddaughter and Song Peifeng were smiling at each other. When Jiang Bai was in the middle of it, the yearning and composure in his eyes were

also deep. As he watched, the smile on Grandpa Jiang's face deepened. After returning to the house rented by Jiang Xi, even his dreams at night seemed to be floating in the clouds.

After the National Day, there were not so many tourists in Beijing, so Jiang Xi and Jiang Bai took Grandpa Jiang to visit the famous attractions in Beijing.

First, they went to the most famous Tian'anmen to watch the national flag raising early in the morning.

They were responsible for watching, and she was responsible for taking pictures, not only for Grandpa Jiang, but also for Jiang Bai, Tong Jingang, and Song Peifeng.

Her lens was full of them, but Song Peifeng's lens was full of her.

She was smiling, she was sad, she was in the morning light.

After that, they climbed the Yong Palace, the Forbidden City, the Tiantan, the Yihe Garden, the Old Summer Palace, and even the Great Wall. These fearless people climbed them all.

Grandpa Jiang only climbed to the foot of the Great Wall for a short while before sitting down to rest. Jiang Xi and Song Peifeng accompanied him. Tong Jingang, who was full of energy, pulled Jiang Bai to continue climbing, and then came down exhausted.

Jiang Wu had finished her freshman year classes and was taking sophomore and junior year classes. She also audited classes in other departments. The people in dormitory 401 had long been accustomed to Jiang Wu's early departure and late return, and her elusive appearances, and they all thought that she knew about the sports meet.

Cui Yujie felt a little guilty when she first saw Jiang Wu coming back, but she saw that there was nothing unusual on her face. She was still the same as before, going for a run early in the morning, and after running, she went to the cafeteria to buy a bunch of things and went to the rental house outside the school to bring breakfast to Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Bo. She thought in her heart that she could delay it for a day, and when the day of the sports meet came, she would not go.

Liu Yan, Shen Xinlan and others in the dormitory thought that Jiang Wu had signed up by herself and knew about the sports meet.

Jiang Xi did know about the sports meet, but she didn't know that she was also registered. In addition, she was the first one to go out in the morning and the last one to come back at night these days, and no one had told her about it.

As everyone knows, traveling is the most tiring. What's more tiring is that she has to take care of Grandpa Jiang and plan the itinerary throughout the trip, which makes it even more tiring. Every day, after taking Grandpa Jiang and his friends to visit scenic spots, she has to type 10,000 words when she comes back. When she returns to the dormitory and takes a shower, she is basically exhausted and falls asleep as soon as she lies down.

Until October 15th, it was the Kyoto University Autumn College Student Sports Meet. Jiang Xi went out again early in the morning. Cui Yujie thought she was going for a run again, but she disappeared after going out and was never seen again.

Cui Yujie then became anxious and began to look for her everywhere in the school. She even ran to the loud speaker in the playground and used the loud speaker of the radio station to call Jiang Xi.

But where could she find her?

The Popular Film Festival was held on October 16th. Jiang Xi and her friends did not have classes on October 15th, so they came to the hotel where the event was held a day in advance and met up with the "White Snake" crew.

The "White Snake" crew was also very wealthy. They not only prepared suits for Jiang Bai and Tong Jingang, but also prepared a dress for Jiang Xi.
