To make up for Lu Qingya's situation, after she arrived in Kyoto, Jiang Yue specially asked Lu Yan to hire a professional acting teacher to teach her acting.
Lu Qingya lived up to expectations and excelled in her studies.
The teachers all praised her for her talent.
In the evening, after Lu Qingya finished her class with her teacher, she went upstairs to find Jiang Yue.
Fearing that it wouldn't be safe for Lu Qingya to stay outside, Jiang Yue discussed it with Lu's father and wife and decided to let her stay at the Lu family home for the time being. Once the film crew started shooting, she would move to a hotel arranged by the crew.
As the director, Lu Yan is on set every day. With him protecting Lu Qingya, she won't be bullied.
"Knock knock knock".
Lu Qingya stood at the door, holding a cute little rabbit doll in her hand, and gently knocked on Jiang Yue's door.
"Come in."
Jiang Yue's voice came from inside the door.
Lu Qingya pushed open the door and saw Jiang Yue sitting at her desk with a big pregnant belly, writing something. She quickly walked over and said, "Yueyue, you're being naughty again. Working so late."
Jiang Yue is almost seven months pregnant now and will give birth in a little over two months. Because she is carrying twins, her belly is bigger than that of a typical pregnant woman.
Upon hearing Lu Qingya's words, Jiang Yue put down her pen and tried to stand up, holding onto the table for support.
Lu Qingya quickly put down the rabbit doll in her hand and went to help her. "Your belly is so big, you should rest more. Doctor Liu said you can't overwork yourself."
"I don't have a job."
Jiang Yue explained with a smile, "I just wrote back a few letters to the children and teachers in the mountainous areas."
During this time, Jiang Yue was not only busy with her own career, but also began to build schools and find teachers for children in mountainous areas.
Because the roads in the mountains are difficult to travel, it is very inconvenient for many children to go home. Jiang Yue built dormitories for them and a canteen for the school, providing free meals for the children.
The teachers are mostly locals. Although their educational backgrounds are not very high, they are fine teaching primary school. Jiang Yue selects teachers for the students locally mainly because the mountainous area is too poor. If she finds highly educated people from the city to be teachers, they may not be able to adapt to this environment and may leave soon.
Too many teacher turnovers are not good for the children.
The locals are used to this environment, and they will cherish such a stable job even more, which is good for both the teachers and the children.
Two schools have already started classes, and many children and teachers have written to Jiang Yue to express their gratitude.
Jiang Yue read all these letters carefully. Many of the children couldn't write, so she drew pictures for them. Some of the drawings depicted the school, while others showed the mountains.
Some students use pinyin instead of words they don't know how to write, and it takes Jiang Yue a while to understand them when she reads them.
Even so, Jiang Yue read all the letters carefully. She didn't have time to reply to every child, but she would write one letter to each child and then write one to the teacher.
Upon hearing that Jiang Yue was replying to a letter from children and teachers in the mountains, Lu Qingya looked at Jiang Yue with admiration, "Sister Yueyue, I really admire you so much. Not everyone has your courage to take all the money they earn to help others."
"Don't make me sound so noble. I'm doing this for my own sake."
Jiang Yue doesn't consider herself a particularly kind person. She did all this entirely for the sake of her unborn child and Lu Jingnian; otherwise, she definitely wouldn't have done these things.
"What brings you here so late?" Jiang Yue sat down on the sofa and changed the subject with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingya quickly brought over the rabbit doll she had bought that day and gave it to Jiang Yue. "On my way back, I saw a doll vendor and saw that this doll was really cute, so I wanted to buy it for you."
The colorful little rabbit doll is a real eye-catcher.
"Thank you, Qingya, I like it very much."
Jiang Yue took the doll and accepted it with a smile.
During the time Qingya stayed at the Lu family's house, she would bring back any new gadgets she came across to Jiang Yue, and Jiang Yue had already gotten used to it.
"I'm glad you're happy, Yueyue."
Lu Qingya was very happy to see that Jiang Yue had received the gift. "By the way, Yueyue, Lu Yan showed me the contract today. The pay you gave me this time is too much."
I don't need that much, half is fine.
Since becoming the spokesperson for down jackets, the money Jiang Yue gave Lu Qingya not only relieved her of worries about tuition fees for the next few years, but also allowed her to subsidize her older brother and family.
This spring, her parents used the money she sent home to build five large red brick houses with cement floors, a first in their village, and many villagers envied them.
Her parents called her and told her that she must thank Sister Jiang Yue and Brother Jing Nian properly, because they had helped them and she should be grateful.
Therefore, when Lu Qingya saw the payment Jiang Yue gave her, she immediately told Lu Yan not to accept so much.
She only needs half, and she doesn't want to keep the other half for herself; she wants to give it to Sister Jiang Yue so that she can use the money to help more people.
But Lu Yan said that his opinion didn't count, and that Jiang Yue should make the decision.
So as soon as Lu Qingya returned today, she came to find Jiang Yue.
"I've heard of people asking for money, but I've never heard of anyone liking to push money away."
Jiang Yue looked at Lu Qingya with a somewhat helpless smile, "Then give me a reason why you only want half the pay?"
She didn't actually give much; it was all based on the current market price for newcomers.
Lu Qingya was used to a hard life since childhood and had never seen so much money before, so she thought it was a lot of money.
"Because I'm not short of money anymore, you still give me a lot of endorsement fees."
"Besides, you gave me the lead role in this film because you're giving me an opportunity. Yueyue, you've been so good to me, I can't take your money anymore."
Lu Qingya said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue couldn't help but laugh.
"Qingya, the fact that you say that shows you are a grateful person, and I am very happy."
I think the salary I gave was reasonable. This is the salary that newcomers are paid these days. I didn't give you any special treatment just because you're my sister.
Even brothers need to keep clear accounts, don't you think?
Friendship is friendship, and business is business.
Jiang Yue never lumped them together.
Lu Qingya was very clever and immediately understood what Jiang Yue meant. "Yueyue, I understand. I won't talk about the salary anymore, but there's one thing you must promise me."
"What is it?" Jiang Yue asked.
"I'll give you the money too. Use it to continue doing good deeds. Consider it my way of praying for my own good fortune, okay?"
After Lu Qingya finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Yue pleadingly.
Jiang Yue looked at her, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"I can agree to that."
It would be a good thing for Jiang Yue if Lu Qingya did some charity work. When these things were reported in the future, they would enhance her reputation, so Jiang Yue did not refuse.
