The boy from the Pei family has become stupid from studying too much
The eyes were cold under the gold-rimmed glasses, the nose was straight, the facial features were delicate, and there was a clear jawline that he envied! There were many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, but the person in front of him made Jiang Lin's breath stagnate.
Pei Xu stood up and looked him up and down. He was wearing branded clothes, so Pei Xu had already guessed his identity.
"You...who are you?" Jiang Lin asked politely.
"Pei Xu."
Jiang Lin was about to introduce himself, but Pei Xu stopped him from saying anything, "Can you do me a favor?"
Jiang Lin ran home madly.
There were a few aunties and grandmothers chatting under the big banyan tree. They greeted him warmly: "Big star, come and sit down."
Jiang Lin smiled and refused: "Auntie, Grandma, I have something else to do, let's talk later."
Jiang Lin took out a pair of new slippers from his suitcase and suddenly realized, "Why should I listen to him? Just take the slippers when he tells me to?"
Jiang Lin handed him the slippers with a proud look on his face, "New slippers."
Pei Xu hesitated and said, "Do you have any cheaper slippers?"
Jiang Lin said calmly: "These are my most ordinary slippers. My hands are tired of holding them."
Pei Xu took the slippers from his hand and said to him sincerely, "Thank you."
Pei Zongli walked past the banyan tree with a broom in his hand, looking helpless. When he walked away, the gossip station began to talk about it.
Aunt Li said: "I heard that the boy from the old Li family refused to stay in Beijing to work. I don't know what he was thinking."
Grandma Song came close to them and whispered, "I heard that some people read too much." Grandma Song pointed to her head and said, "They become stupid because they read too much. Beijing has Tiananmen Square and Chairman Mao, but we have only seen Tiananmen Square on the news in our lives."
Grandma Liang also agreed: "College students, the state will assign you a job as an official, you'd be stupid to come back to this remote mountain area like ours."
Aunt Zhao said excitedly: "The child is stupid, and we adults cannot be stupid too. We should go and help persuade him. If the village has a cadre, it will be convenient to do anything in the future."
Jiang Lin's stomach made a gurgling sound and he turned his face away embarrassedly.
Pei Xu said: "Big star, if you are hungry, go home and eat."
Jiang Lin ignited a glimmer of hope, raised his tone and asked: "Do you know me?"
Pei Xu said calmly: "I don't know him, but last night when we were having dinner, my mother told me excitedly that a big star had come to the village to film a show."
A critical hit! Young people didn't recognize him as a former top star, but Jiang Lin thought of a reason to save his reputation: "It's normal. Girls make up a large proportion of star-chasing groups. The vast majority of boys don't chase stars."
Pei Xu looked at him and said honestly: "I like Jay Chou and Hu Ge."
A decisive blow! Jiang Lin looked down at the slippers on his feet and roared in his heart: "I also gave a wink to a blind man!"
Pei Xu asked: "Are you an actor or a singer?"
Jiang Lin said proudly: "I am an idol, I debuted through a talent show, I am good at singing and dancing!"
"So what kind of show are you shooting in the countryside?"
Jiang Lin said softly, "We're filming a farming variety show."
Pei Xu looked at the staff filming around him and asked seriously, "Are you really here to farm? Or do you just want the countryside as a background?"
Jiang Lin was speechless. He lay in the wooden rocking chair, rocking back and forth for the entire afternoon, but he didn't get an answer. He only got a piece of chicken poop, which was watery at that.
Jiang Lin frowned in disdain and shouted, "It's such a big place, and you have to pull my shoes on! Do you know how much these shoes cost?"
The offending chicken took a few steps away, its eyes rolling around, as if it understood what he said, and tactfully walked out of the yard. The other chickens seemed to be afraid of being made into boiled chicken, three-cup chicken, or big plate chicken, so they flapped their wings and followed suit.
Jiang Lin no longer cared about the camera and said, "Teachers, please turn off your cameras and take a break. It will just be meaningless waste footage if you take any more photos."
The staff was indifferent. Jiang Lin shrugged his shoulders, hopped on one foot, went into the house and changed into a new pair of shoes. He threw the Chanel stained with chicken poop in the corner of the yard, and said, "It's a ruined life."
It was not until the smell of food woke him up through the cracks in the window that the room was dark and the fixed camera was flashing a red dot. He turned on his mobile phone and it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Liu Chunling heard the sound of the door opening, holding the spatula in her hand, and said with a smile: "Jiang Lin, you're up, get ready for dinner."
Jiang Lin washed his hands and helped serve the dishes, "Grandma, where's Grandpa?"
"Grandpa is plowing the fields."
In winter, it gets dark early. If you are in the northeast, it is already dark at 4 or 5 pm. At this moment, every household in Peijia Village is shining with lights.
Jiang Lin felt a little embarrassed and volunteered to go out and call his grandfather home for dinner.
"Jiang Lin, wait a minute." Liu Chunling walked into the room and took out an old-fashioned flashlight and gave it to him.
Jiang Lin put his phone back into his pocket and walked out happily.
While he was on guard against the dogs in the village, he went to look for people. He walked carefully on the ridge of the field and called out loudly: "Seventh Master, come home for dinner."
A dish of young ginger duck, stir-fried snow peas with Chinese sausage, and garlic lettuce exuded an enticing aroma. Jiang Lin's stomach was tempted, but the camera next to him silently reminded him to manage his body shape, and his chopsticks reached out for the garlic lettuce.
Liu Chunling urged him to eat more meat. Jiang Lin had just picked up the meat from the plate with his chopsticks when he was shaken off by a high-pitched shout.
"Village chief!" Aunt Li ran into the yard in a panic, panting, "Something happened at Old Li's house, go and have a look!"
Pei Qi quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked, "What happened?"
Aunt Li pulled his arm and said, "If you don't go now, Pei Xu's legs will be broken."
"Pei Xu?" Jiang Lin said in surprise, and then he stopped the staff, "It's not appropriate for you to take pictures of other people's family affairs, right?"
Jiang Lin followed with his cell phone flashlight in hand.
Before entering the door, I could hear Pei Zongli cursing.
"Pei Xu! Do you think that I won't dare to hit you now that you have grown up and become strong enough?"
Pei Qi and several middle-aged men stopped him. Pei Qi snatched the bamboo whip from his hand and said, "Ali, what are you doing? What if you beat the child badly?"
Pei Zongli's face turned red with anger, and he pointed at Pei Xu and cursed: "His brain is broken! The tutor arranged a job for him in Beijing, and he can choose it! But he insisted on going home!"
Zhao Sumei stood in front of Pei Xu to protect him, "How can a father talk about his son like this!"
Several children looked terrified, their eyes wandering around their grandparents and uncle. Jiang Lin led them to the kitchen and said softly, "Don't be afraid, just stay here." He opened the Candy Crush Saga game, "Can you help your brother pass this level?"
Pei Zongli accused her: "A loving mother often spoils her son! If you continue to spoil him, he will be useless! When the time comes, you won't be able to return to Beijing!"
"Pei Zongli, what do you mean?" Zhao Sumei stepped forward with her hands on her hips to confront him. "I'm his mother, how could I harm him? Didn't I persuade him to return to Beijing? You blame me for the problem with your methods!"
The aunts held Zhao Sumei back and said, "Amei, everyone give way. The children are here."
Pei Zongli took Pei Qi's hand and asked for help: "Master Qi, you have been the village chief for decades. You also know that there are only a few college students in our Peijia Village. Pei Xu is the only one with a doctorate. What do you think will happen if you go home? Isn't this nonsense?"
Jiang Lin looked at Pei Xu, who was sitting on the stairs without saying a word, in surprise, and muttered in his heart: "This straightforward man with gold-rimmed glasses is a doctor, so he really deserves a beating."
Even the most powerful person in the world cannot judge family affairs. Pei Qi walked up to Pei Xu and said softly, "Xiao Liu, our elders are all farmers. They haven't read much and don't understand any great principles, but we know that only by studying more can we succeed in the future. You are the pride of our Peijia Village for being admitted to Beijing. Grandpa also wants to persuade you to listen to your father and go back to Beijing to work."
Jiang Lin nodded silently, complaining in his heart: "If I hadn't participated in this crappy show, I would never have come to Shankala in my life. There is no nightlife, no entertainment, no takeout, and I can only go to the town ten kilometers away to pick up a package."
Pei Xu said slowly: "Grandpa, it is because I have read so many books that I want to use the knowledge I have learned to make some contributions to my hometown. I can't just stand by and watch."
Pei Zongli shouted: "Whether it develops or not is what the country and the government want to do. It is not your turn to worry about it."
"Dad, you are being unreasonable."
Pei Zongli was so angry that he took off his slippers, raised his hand and was about to hit him, "Today I will show you what is right!"
"Hey~ Lao Li." Everyone stopped him again.
Pei Qi said patiently: "Xiao Liu, listen to grandpa's advice. You are still young, go back to Beijing to work first. When you have a better future, it will not be too late to return to your hometown."
Jiang Lin sighed softly: "People who want to go back to Beijing are here, but they can't go back."
Zhao Sumei coaxed him gently: "A Xu, listen to your father this time, go back to Beijing and work hard. Mom is still waiting for you to take me to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City one day."
Pei Xu said nothing, turned around and went upstairs, then came down with a backpack on his back. Everyone thought he had figured it out and breathed a sigh of relief, and Pei Zongli's expression eased a little.
Zhao Sumei stepped forward and said, "Ah Xu, it's so late and there are no cars to go to the county town. Let's go tomorrow."
Jiang Lin pouted and said, "From now on, I will be the only one who can be the village chief of this village."
Pei Zongli said with a little excitement: "Dad will find you a car to take you to the county town."
Pei Xu walked past the crowd and came to the gate. He looked at everyone with a firm gaze and said solemnly, "Grandpas and grandmas, uncles and aunts, dad, mom, I have made up my mind. I will not go back to Beijing."
There was an uproar in the living room. Pei Zongli picked up the broom again and threw it at him, cursing: "You unfilial son!"
Several children in the kitchen came out with their cell phones and shrank back to Zhao Sumei in fear.
Jiang Lin took back his cell phone and turned around to see Pei Xu cleverly dodged the flying broom and then ran away.
Pei Zongli chased out, followed closely by a group of people. Peijia Village welcomed a lively night with people and horses falling down and chickens running around.
Jiang Lin supported the panting Pei Qi and said, "Grandpa, let's go home."
Pei Qi held his hand tightly and begged him: "Jiang Lin, you are young and healthy, can you help grandpa find Pei Xu, okay?"
Jiang Lin looked at his eager eyes and couldn't refuse.
Pei Qi divided the people into several small teams to look for people. Jiang Lin borrowed an electric car from the program crew. The cold wind blew on his face, "Hiss... What sin have I committed!" He held the phone in one hand and lowered his head to type in the name of the town.
Suddenly, a person jumped out from the side. Jiang Lin panicked and threw his cell phone into the car box in front of him, then stepped on the brakes!
He blurted out: "Fuck!"
The wheels rubbed against the ground tightly, making a sharp "swish" sound. Jiang Lin fell forward, and the soles of his shoes scraped against the ground, making a sharp "scratching" sound.
Pei Xu stepped aside, the car stopped, and Jiang Lin was still in shock!
Pei Xu stepped forward and patted his shoulder, asking, "Big star, are you okay?"
Jiang Lin lowered his head and took a deep breath. Suddenly, he grabbed the hand on his shoulder and shook it off. He turned around and yelled, "Are you sick?" His eyes were sharp. "If you are sick, go to Union Hospital for treatment!"
Pei Xu was thrown away by him unexpectedly, staggered to the side and became angry: "You lowered your head to play with your phone instead of looking at the road, who can you blame?"
Jiang Lin got out of the car and confronted him, shouting: "Fuck! Who the hell am I looking at my phone for? It's to find you!"
