Chapter 217 Oh no, it’s too early to laugh!
The crew of "The Elegy of Gaixia".
Director Zhou has inquired about the situation over the past two days.
When I found out that Su Chen kept shooting and moving to another place, I felt a little relieved.
He is a director, so he can be considered an artist.
It is quite understandable for a young man like Su Chen who is capable and has a strong personality.
I think Su Chen’s behavior... can be considered a form of performance art.
Maybe he has some plans and goals, like setting up a stall and traveling around the country...
But having said that.
Apparent relief does not actually mean true letting go.
After eating the leftover pickled garlic, his temper has become noticeably worse recently.
Mainly because he wanted to eat when he was under a lot of pressure while filming, and Su Chen’s food happened to relieve his inner anxiety.
This is also why he turns into a roaring demon when he works.
Without Su Chen, the atmosphere on the crew returned to its usual dull state.
It happened to be drizzling.
The feeling of sadness spreads around us like a plague.
"Come on! Everyone, get ready! Let's start filming while the excitement is high!"
The overall tone of the play "The Elegy at Gaixia" is tragic and desolate.
This kind of atmosphere is very suitable now!
As soon as the director shouted, everyone jumped up and hurried to take their positions.
This is all learned through training. Even if you are doing something in the toilet, you have to cut it off and quickly come out to stand in position.
The extras were all disheartened, looking at the drizzle in the sky and shouting silently.
It hurts, it hurts!
The apparent sadness carries the true emotion of the departure of delicious food, and when combined with the lifelessness of the workers at work, the emotions are as full as they can be.
Without any preparation, tears started to well up in my eyes.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting lively, the director adjusted the positions and started filming.
Everyone was in high spirits, cooperated well, and completed the task in one go!
In the end, I only NGed once and passed all the tests!
This is a very rare thing on the crew, except for the few days when the director was busy eating at roadside stalls.
After all, he has high requirements, and a scene may be NGed hundreds of times.
So when the "click" sounded, everyone was shocked.
The actors don't have to be scolded and the staff don't have to repeat the same work over and over again, which means they can finish work early.
only.
If the cattle and horses cannot even satisfy their most basic desire of "eating".
What can I look forward to after work?
…
Over there, in the home of a villager in Shuimen Village.
Old Yang and his son took turns eating one.
After eating for a while, the little boy suddenly thought of his mother. His expression paused and he looked at his father and spoke.
"Lao Yang, should we save some of these beef noodles for Mom?"
Old Yang was chewing happily when he looked at his son and then at the little bit of cold beef left in his hand.
"Of course! Or you could eat a few bites less. This thing is spicy. If you eat too much, your little stomach won't be able to handle it."
son:……
I'm sorry for talking too much!
There are only a few beef strips for twenty yuan.
He was hesitant before buying it, but now he was eating it more happily than anyone else, and most of the bag of meat went into Xuan Lao Deng's mouth.
Soon, the father and son, each with their own thoughts, finished all the beef strips in tacit understanding.
But this is not enough, it doesn’t even fill the gaps between my teeth.
I'll have to ask the housekeeper to pay for some more later.
After sending his son away, Lao Yang took out his private money from behind the photo frame and began to look around the bedroom.
Hey, why does it feel unsafe everywhere?
After a while, the woman came back from her parents' home in a hurry.
As soon as she entered the room, she pushed the man hard with her elbow.
"Old Yang, guess what I saw? There's a guy selling cold beef outside, and he's asking eighty-eight bucks per pound! Holy crap, so many people are buying it even though it's so expensive! They must be crazy..."
Old Yang: ...
His whole body tensed up instantly.
My mood went from ecstasy when I first heard about beef jerky to the bottom now, all in just a few seconds.
Can you tell the hag that you bought some too and didn’t leave a single bite for her?
That's definitely not possible.
Just thinking about how unreasonable my wife is makes my spine cold.
So, Lao Yang had no choice but to bite the bullet and pretend nothing had happened to ask his daughter-in-law about his father-in-law's situation.
The woman spoke a lot without noticing.
At last, he whispered softly into Lao Yang's ear.
"By the way, when I got back, my son told me that beef jerky was delicious. Where did it come from?"
It’s bad!
Old Yang's heart was filled with alarm.
"Ouch, the water in the kitchen seems to be boiling! Oh my god! Honey, let go!"
The woman twisted his ear, her eyes dangerous, "Speak!"
This tiger bitch almost twisted his ears off!
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Old Yang had to speak reluctantly.
"I bought it from the place you mentioned."
When the woman heard this, she gasped.
"How much money do you make in a day? You bought him such expensive beef jerky! You're really willing to spend money like that!"
The woman was so angry that she paced around the room.
He kept mumbling to himself.
Old Yang explained aggrievedly, "It was your son who insisted on eating it, so I had no choice but to buy it for twenty yuan. Besides, it tastes pretty good."
"Well enough???"
The woman's voice suddenly rose another octave.
"No matter how delicious it is, I can't buy it! It's okay to buy fried food for a few dollars normally, but with our business now, no one wants the bamboo baskets we weave even in town. You're a spendthrift! And your son is a spendthrift too!"
The woman slapped Lao Yang twice, and Lao Yang took it.
It doesn't hurt anyway.
At this time, the boy who was hiding in the crack of the door and watching the show had a smug look on his face.
Hey, Lao Yang, if you still want to beat me up, someone will definitely take care of you...
As the saying goes, every action has its effect, and Dad’s retribution is Mom.
This family is a closed loop.
Even when the opera troupe was about to start, the woman was still worrying about the money she spent on the beef jerky.
The little boy realized it belatedly.
Oh no, it’s too early to laugh!!!
It certainly feels good for dad to get scolded, but the consequence now is that he can’t eat beef jerky either!
The thought of that taste made his mouth water.
Then, he seized the opportunity and ran to his mother when she was almost done scolding him.
Never mind anything, just act coquettishly first.
"Beautiful mom~ It's getting late, let's go to the theater~~"
"Um...just...can I get some beef jerky to eat while I watch?"
"Just eat it this time, okay? Beautiful mom, after this, I'll never eat it again."
My mother likes people to call her beautiful, and she said that no one outside calls her that now, so she asked him and his father to call her that at home.
However, the father and son usually don't shout.
I would only call out when I needed help.
woman:……
“Is it really that delicious?”
To be honest, she was also a little curious.
