"You all know me, right? After I went back, I was taking care of my grandparents and running that guesthouse. I've been quite busy, so I haven't been looking at my phone much." Zheng Shuang said, glancing at the others who weren't going to let her out of their sights, and continued, "Okay, okay, I know. I'll definitely check my phone more often from now on and promise I won't lose contact."
“That’s more like it. Besides, we live in the information age now. Why don’t you make a short video and film your life? Let everyone see your homestay and farmhouse being built bit by bit. That way, people will feel a sense of belonging, and it will also be good advertising for you. Plus, you can make more money. It’s a win-win situation,” Sun Xue, Kan Ze, and Zheng Shuang said.
"Yeah, how come I didn't think of that? Awesome! Isn't your current situation perfect? We're all photography majors, your photos are so beautiful, and you're good-looking too, so there's definitely no problem." The others also agreed.
Zheng Shuang frowned: "That makes sense. If it doesn't work, I'll go back and think about it. Anyway, I'm doing this kind of work now."
"Okay, then it's settled. When you're ready, just let us know, and we'll all give you a shout-out." Mingxiu said with a grin. Putting aside everything else, she does have some fans, so it would be nice to subtly promote her later.
After having a meal together, the group quickly dispersed. Everyone was busy with their own things to do and needed to get back home as soon as possible, especially those who lived far away.
Evening, the night market in the capital.
Mingxiu and Kangxi walked hand in hand down the street, surrounded by all sorts of snacks. When they saw a balloon vendor, Kangxi pulled Mingxiu over and said, "If you want one, I'll buy it for you."
Mingxiu looked at Kangxi, who was suddenly acting strangely, and didn't know what was wrong with him, but it didn't stop her from buying things at all: "This," Mingxiu said with a grin, pointing to the pink silly dog on it.
It just so happens that the two of them were wearing matching pink outfits today, both wearing pink T-shirts, which perfectly matched their matching pink dog.
Kangxi nodded, paid the shopkeeper, took the pink, clumsy dog from his hand, tied it to Mingxiu's hand, and then walked over, looking at her other hand as he continued walking.
Mingxiu wanted to have a late-night snack tonight, so she dragged Kangxi out with her. Before long, Mingxiu had quite a few snacks in her hands, including the silly dog's. Biting into a skewer of rich starchy sausage, Mingxiu was extremely satisfied. After all these years, she still loves this taste.
As the two were walking, two children passing by stared at the silly dog in Mingxiu's hand. While looking at it, they held hands and complained to Aji Zhang behind them, "Mommy, this lady's balloon is so pretty! I want one too. Why can she have one, but we can't?"
"Yes, Mom, buy us some blankets."
Behind the two children, the woman rolled her eyes at them: "You two are already grown men, you don't need this anymore. Did you say that yourselves? A real man doesn't like this balloon."
The two children hesitated, holding hands. "Can we not be men now? I still want the balloon. Can we be men after we buy the balloon?"
"No, hurry up and let's go. I'll buy you both ice cream later, okay?" the mother behind said impatiently.
Hearing the conversation between the mother and her two children, Mingxiu looked amusedly at the two kids who were overjoyed at the mention of ice cream.
After staying in Hengdian for a while, Mingxiu and Kangxi returned to Hengdian. Although Kangxi's movie had been filmed, he still needed to watch the editing process, so Mingxiu came back with him.
However, Mingxiu looked at the bright sun outside, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and realized it was really too hot outside. She didn't want to go out at all now.
So even though she's back, Mingxiu still stays home every day. But today is different. Mingxiu and Kangxi got up early and came to the space to prepare for work.
In two days it will be the birthday of Kangxi's mother in this life. A gift needs to be prepared for the guests. Mingxiu originally planned to buy one, but later learned that her favorite thing was pearls, so there was no need to buy one, because Mingxiu and Kangxi have pearls in their space, and they are of very good quality.
There wasn't much in the pond originally, but the two of them couldn't stand seeing it so empty, so they put a lot of clams and fish in it, and now they're all thriving.
Mingxiu and Kangxi plan to dig this up today and give it directly to Lin Lin. Wouldn't that be great, without spending any money?
They've transformed this space into something absolutely perfect over the past few years, and Kangxi has also bought a lot of high-tech equipment, so now a lot of the work is actually done by machines.
Beside the river, Kangxi dug open the clam shells, while Mingxiu was responsible for picking out the pearls one by one. Before long, a pile of clam shells had been accumulated.
Kangxi looked at the clam shells behind him, then at the large basin of pearls in front of Mingxiu, and asked.
"Should we continue digging?"
Mingxiu looked up at him.
"Keep digging, keep digging. There are too many in our river. I feel like the fish aren't growing as well as before. There are still too many. Don't leave too many. Just leave a little bit. Keep the ones you dig out properly so we can use them directly when we need them, without having to dig anymore. I don't want to get covered in this smell every time."
"Then I'll do it myself. You go and rest for a bit, or do something else," Kangxi said, looking at Mingxiu who was frowning.
Mingxiu shook her head
"That won't do. The sooner we finish, the better. We'll share the good times and the bad. Let's do it together. Besides, if we do it together, we'll have someone to talk to. It's so boring to do it alone."
After saying that, Mingxiu continued working. Kangxi glanced at Mingxiu and shook his head.
After digging for a whole day, we finally managed to clear out a huge pile.
Mingxiu looked at the several large buckets of pearls on the ground and put her hands on her hips with satisfaction: "We've really experienced what it feels like to have too many pearls. From now on, we can use pearls as we please. We can use pearls to make face masks every day, and we can even use pearls as glass to play with."
Kangxi laughed
"Haven't you already experienced these things? In my previous life, everything in my storeroom ended up in my spatial storage."
“That’s true. There are too many good things in the storeroom, but because they are so good, I usually don’t bring them with me. It’s just too much trouble.” Mingxiu wrinkled her nose, thinking about how she once took a hairpin that Emperor Kangxi had made for her when she went out to play. Someone wanted to buy it, but Mingxiu refused, which resulted in a big fight.
