Yun Jin called He Tingchuan and told him that they were going to the desert to film a movie.
He Tingchuan frowned: "What kind of movie are you filming?"
"Director Liu cast Nian Gao as the female lead's daughter in his film. She doesn't have many scenes, just a few shots, so it's a cameo role to gain experience!" Yun Jin said. "My parents are going too; they've never been to the desert before."
"When?" He Tingchuan was planning to go with them.
Yun Jin said, "We'll leave tomorrow."
He Tingchuan: "You just wanted to inform me?"
"Yes, I was worried that no one would answer your call." Yun Jin was reporting this to the authorities.
He Tingchuan didn't want to talk anymore.
Yun Jin asked, "Is she angry?"
He Tingchuan stubbornly insisted, "No, your man isn't that petty."
"I knew my man was generous. We'll call you again when we get back," Yun Jin instructed.
He Tingchuan accepted their decision to go out and told Yun Jin, "Bring plenty of clothes. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge. Wear short sleeves during the day and a cotton-padded coat at night!"
"I know, thank you for reminding me, honey. I love you, I'm going to pack my cotton-padded coat!" In fact, Yun Jin had already packed her cotton-padded coat, knowing that the temperature difference was large. She had to fool He Tingchuan.
This gave He Tingchuan a sense of accomplishment.
She knows how to manipulate men.
At that time, transportation was not so convenient, but Yun Jin still didn't want to suffer without effort. She bought four plane tickets, flew to a nearby airport, and then took a car to the filming location. She spent money, but she felt much more comfortable.
Mr. He said, "The country is much better now. We didn't even know if we could survive before. We thought that if we could eliminate an enemy, it wouldn't be a wasted life."
Little Rice Cake understood what Father He meant, rushed over and hugged him: "Grandpa is so amazing! Grandpa worked so hard, you chased away the bad guys and that's why we have such a good life now. Grandpa is the best!"
Mr. He's inner feelings were quickly healed by his adorable granddaughter. Looking at his granddaughter's cute smiling face, bright eyes, and pure, innocent gaze, Mr. He smiled and patted the little girl's head: "Grandpa is amazing, but there are people even more amazing than Grandpa. They are even greater."
Rice cake looked at him with adoration: "Who are they?"
When Mr. He thought of his fallen comrades, his eyes welled up with tears and his voice became slightly hoarse: "They are heroes, they are martyrs."
Little Rice Cake seemed to understand but not quite: "Is it those uncles and aunts who are buried in Martyrs' Park that Mom took me to see?"
Mr. He nodded and glanced at Yun Jin. Yun Jin understood the look in Mr. He's eyes.
Yun Jin said, "Nian Gao went to pay respects to them."
Mr. He said with relief, "Good child, you should visit their graves more often. Without them, we wouldn't have the good life we have today. They deserve our remembrance!"
Yun Jin agreed: "Dad is right."
Little Rice Cake nodded in agreement: "Grandpa and Mom are both right."
The little rice cake looked so serious that it made everyone laugh.
Chatting and laughing, they soon arrived at the agreed-upon town.
With a sufficient budget, the director set off in a convoy of cars, completely out of place in the backward town.
Yun Jin and Xiao Niangao arrived in town by tractor. With nowhere to stay, Yun Jin asked a fellow villager for accommodation, and they were able to settle down.
He's parents didn't want to be a burden. He's father inquired about the situation here with the landlord, and Yun Jin and He's mother tidied up the house so they could rest at night.
After finishing my work, I washed Xiao Niangao's face and took her to find Director Liu.
Director Liu had just finished his work when he saw the mother and daughter. He greeted them with a smile and beckoned Little Niangao over. Little Niangao greeted him sweetly.
Director Liu gave Xiao Niangao a box of chocolates: "We'll start filming tonight. Don't be nervous. Just do exactly what I tell you to do."
Little Rice Cake nodded obediently.
Director Liu asked Xiao Niangao to try on the clothes so that they could be altered if they didn't fit.
The clothes were a bit big, but that's okay. The staff in charge of costumes brought their own needles and thread and quickly made some alterations. The clothes fit Xiao Nian Gao perfectly this time.
That evening, Yun Jin and the others ate at their landlord's house. There wasn't much food in the countryside, so the landlord killed the only egg-laying hen in the house and made chicken soup for Yun Jin and the others.
Mother He said, "Drink more, it's been stewing for quite a while."
"Thank you, Mom." Yun Jin took a sip of chicken soup. Before she could even lift a finger, Dad He gave the chicken leg to Xiao Niangao.
The chicken soup tasted good. Yun Jin noticed that the landlord's child was staring at them longingly, with drool hanging from the corner of his mouth. He looked a little pitiful.
Yun Jin asked He's mother, "Did you pay for the chicken?"
Mrs. He nodded: "Your father gave it to you."
Yun Jin felt relieved and smiled as she beckoned to the child, "Go and get an empty bowl."
The child paused for a moment, not understanding what Yun Jin meant.
Yun Jin said, "Here's some chicken for you."
Upon hearing this, the child's eyes lit up. He seemed to remember something and, suppressing his urge to eat meat, shook his head: "Mother is cursing."
"Don't worry, it's from me." There was a big bowl of chicken, more than they could finish. The kids were so greedy; it was obvious they hadn't had anything good to eat.
After struggling for a moment, the child finally went back and brought back a broken bowl under Yun Jin's encouraging gaze. Yun Jin selected some chicken breast and two small chicken drumsticks, filled the broken bowl to the brim, and had Xiao Niangao carry it to the child.
Little Rice Cake boasted, "My grandma's chicken soup is the most fragrant."
Mrs. He beamed with joy; her little granddaughter just loved to speak the truth.
The child eagerly took the bowl full of meat from Xiao Nian Gao's hand and immediately called his older sister and younger brother to hide and eat it, so that their mother wouldn't see them and forbid them from eating the guests' food.
Knowing that Yun Jin was kind-hearted, He's mother said, "The children here are indeed pitiful, all of them are so thin and bony."
