There is a mother and daughter standing at the door, the mother is wearing a printed dress, which looks fashionable and elegant, and the daughter is dressed relatively simply, with a white shirt and a black A-line skirt, with her bright and clean face, giving people a fresh and beautiful feeling. The mother and daughter are none other than Liu Yifei and her mother Liu Xiaoli.

"Senior sister, Happy New Year!" Liu Yifei saw Jing Tian looking at herself in surprise, smiled at her, and then said apologetically, "Senior sister, what happened last time was that I was wrong, I was too willful, don't be angry with me!"

"No, no, I'm not angry!" Jing Tian has always been heartless, and she has long forgotten the unpleasantness with Liu Yifei, so she hurriedly beckoned Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli to the house, "Senior sister, Aunt Liu, come in quickly!" and turned his head to the room and shouted: "Master, senior sister is here!"

Zhang Ran heard Jingtian say that the senior sister was coming, so he said, "Which senior sister is coming?" As soon as these words came out, he saw Liu Yifei's mother and daughter, and was slightly stunned, and then said: "Baozi, Ms. Liu! Why don't you make a phone call?" Come, hurry up and sit down!"

Liu Xiaoli smiled and said, "Your phone is turned off, and you can't get through." After asking Yang Mi, they found out that you are on Lanai Island, and we will come over!" As she spoke, she pulled Liu Yifei and motioned Liu Yifei to hurry up and say hello to Zhang Ran.

"Master, I know that you love tea, and this is the top red robe that I bought for you. Liu Yifei reached out and took out a beautifully packaged tea box from the bag, put it on the coffee table, looked at Zhang Ran and said, "Master, the big red robe is warm, good at storing yang energy, generating heat and warming the abdomen, it is very suitable for drinking in autumn and winter, it can not only warm the stomach from the cold but also moisturize the skin!"

"Come and see me, what are you buying?" Zhang Ran glanced at Liu Yifei and said, "I don't have a gift for you!"

Liu Yifei smiled and said: "I don't want gifts, my mother and I just came to see Master, Master, and Little Sister!"

Jing Tian, who was standing not far away, heard this and shouted at Liu Yifei: "Senior sister, little junior sister is here!"

"Master, I'm going to see the little junior sister!" Liu Yifei said to Zhang Ran, and walked towards Jing Tian and the little girl.

The little girl was playing with Jing Tian, and when she saw Liu Yifei coming, she looked at this strange big sister curiously with starry eyes.

Liu Yifei squatted down and looked at the little girl in front of her, the pink down jacket wrapped her body tightly, and her pink face was red in protein, like a porcelain doll, how cute she wanted to love, she smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao, do you know who I am?"

The little girl said in a milky voice: "Senior sister!"

Liu Yifei was taken aback: "Xiaoxiao, you are so smart, you actually know that I am a senior sister!"

Jing Tian knew that Liu Yifei had misunderstood, and explained with a smile: "Master has a lot of students, and many people often run to Master's house when they are filming in Lin'an. ”

Liu Yifei understood what was going on, took out the prepared red envelope, handed it to the little girl, and said with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, this is the red envelope given to you by my senior sister, I wish Xiaoxiao, in the new year, thrive, okay?"

The little girl has already gotten several red envelopes in the past few days, and she knew that she had to say thank you when she got the red envelopes, so her grandmother said in a milky voice: "Thank you, senior sister!" Liu Yifei was cute by the little girl, kissed her on the face, and said: "It's so good to smile!

After lunch, Zhang Ran sat on a deck chair on the beach, leisurely looking at the blue sea and enjoying the afternoon sun.

Liu Yifei came over with a drink, sat on the chair next to him, and said softly, "Master, thank you!"

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "You don't need to thank me, this time it's not only to help you, but also to help myself." Even if it were someone else, I would have done it, I am not the Virgin Mary, how could I allow Harvey to tarnish my innocence like that. ”

Liu Yifei shook his head lightly and said: "Not only this, my mother told me that the movies I have acted in Hollywood in the past few years, "The Legend of Chunli", and others, are inseparable from Master's support." There are many actors with excellent acting skills in Hollywood, and there are many actors who are beautiful, but only a handful can stand out. If Master hadn't helped me, I wouldn't have been able to stand in Hollywood. ”

Zhang Ran couldn't tell Liu Yifei that he helped her because he felt a little guilty, and said lightly: "You are my apprentice, if you enter Hollywood with great fanfare, but come back in disgrace, wouldn't it seem that I am incompetent." He smiled and said: "I have watched all the movies you have acted in this year, and the acting is good, and it feels a little similar to Zhang Ziyi." Zhang Ziyi has a ruthless acting in it, and you have a hatred in your acting, probably because you see all the enemies as me and are ready to kill me. ”

Liu Yifei said embarrassedly: "Master, you are laughing at me!"

Zhang Ran laughed and said, "After this incident, your eyes are much calmer now, and I believe that when you create a character, you will be equally peaceful, but when you need to, you can still burst out that power." If you can really do that, then you have reached the state of freedom. It's a very high level for acting. Reaching this level means that you can easily control many characters. ”

Liu Yifei looked at Zhang Ran and said expectantly: "Master, you said that my acting skills have reached the realm of free retraction, so when will you ask me to film?"

Zhang Ran spread his hands and said, "There is no suitable role, if there is a suitable role, you will definitely be found." ”

Liu Yifei pouted and said: "But you are looking for Tiantian to film, and it is also the scene of the big heroine." ”

Zhang Ran said: "You can play Xia Xuejiao, the heroine of "No Way Home", and the second female Jill, but when I was casting last year, you were still angry with me, even if I asked you to act, you would say, I don't want to play Zhang Ran's nasty ghost play!"

Liu Yifei smiled embarrassedly, and said trickly: "I don't care, anyway, the master is eccentric, an eccentric ghost!" She looked at Zhang Ran, pursed her lips and said, "Master, I have a small request, can you agree?"

Zhang Ran didn't agree, nor did he refuse, he didn't dare to agree rashly, so he said, "You tell me what the request is first." ”

Liu Yifei said softly: "Master, can you accompany me to sell rock sugar gourds once?" Liu Yifei saw Zhang Ran's surprised face and explained: "Selling rock sugar gourds is a special experience in my life, and it is also a particularly interesting experience. Master, you also know that I have been a bit pampered since I was a child, and the experience of selling rock sugar gourds has allowed me to see a lot of people I have never seen before, and I have encountered many things that I have never encountered before. It's been impactful for my whole life. Sometimes I dream that I am carrying a straw pole full of rock sugar gourds, walking through the streets and alleys, shouting loudly, ice-sugar-gourd——, sour and sweet-ice-sugar-gourd——, in fact, over the years, I have always had a wish in my heart, which is to sell rock sugar gourds again with Master. Master, will you promise me?"

Zhang Ran was a little surprised when he heard this, and he also sighed a little emotionally, he had forgotten about selling rock sugar gourds a long time ago, but he didn't expect it to have such a meaning for Liu Yifei. In fact, life is sometimes like this, what you think is a treasure, but in the eyes of others, it is worthless. It's just selling rock sugar gourds, and there's nothing you can't agree to. Zhang Ran decided to fulfill Liu Yifei's wish: "Of course you can." Master, I'll accompany you to sell rock sugar gourds again!"

Liu Yifei was like a child, clapped her hands directly, and said happily: "Great! Master has agreed to accompany me to sell rock sugar gourds!"

Zhang Ran smiled and shook her head, Liu Yifei has experienced so many things, and people have grown a lot, but there is still a very childish place in her character. He coughed and said, "Then you can play here for two days, it just so happens that Jingtian is also here." After the seventh day of junior high school, Master will accompany you to sell rock sugar gourds once!"

In the evening, Zhang Ran told Zhang Jingchu about it. Zhang Jingchu didn't object, and she also felt that there was something wrong, that is, as far as buying rock sugar gourds was concerned, it was not anything bad, so there was no need to object; and Liu Yifei was relatively simple, not the kind of girl who likes to play tricks; if it was replaced by Fan Binbin, then Zhang Jing's heart would be a little drumming.

At noon the next day, Jingtian came to Zhang Ran excitedly and told Zhang Ran that she was also going to sell rock sugar gourds. Zhang Ran felt very speechless, so he said: "What are you making a fuss about, what kind of rock sugar gourds are you selling?" Jing Tian said excitedly: "Senior sister said that selling rock sugar gourds is interesting!" Zhang Ran couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "Is it Baozi who told you that I want to sell rock sugar gourds with her?" Jing Tian nodded and said: "Yes, Master, you just let me go! I am also your apprentice, you can't be partial!"

Zhang Ran suddenly laughed, he knew that Liu Yifei was deliberately pulling Jingtian in order to avoid suspicion, this girl has really grown up.

On the afternoon of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Ran arrived in Beiping by plane with his two apprentices.

After the car drove to Jimen Bridge, Zhang Ran and the others first went to the Beiping Film Academy to have a look. The school hasn't changed much, it's still the same. However, construction of Nortel's new campus in Huairou began at the end of 2012, and the first phase of the project will be put into use in 2016. Thousands of undergraduate students and faculty members of the Peking Film Academy will move into the new campus, which will now be used as a training base for graduate students, doctoral students, and other scientific research.

After walking around the school, Zhang Ran took his two apprentices to an alley not far from the school and found the old man who he and Liu Yifei had bought rock sugar gourds. Fourteen years have passed, and the old man has aged a lot, but the whole person is still in good spirits and his eyes are bright. Zhang Ran and the two apprentices were wearing sunglasses and masks, the old man didn't recognize them, looked at them, and said suspiciously: "Is there anything wrong with you?"

Zhang Ran took off his sunglasses and mask, and said with a smile: "Uncle, do you still know me?"

The old man stared at Zhang Ran's face carefully, and then the whole person became excited. Fourteen years ago, Zhang Ran and Liu Yifei bought rock sugar gourds from him for more than a month, and he didn't think there was anything at that time. However, a few years later, Liu Yifei became a fairy sister and Zhang Ran became a great director, especially after becoming the chief director of the opening ceremony of the Beiping Olympic Games, he couldn't be more proud.

Sometimes he can't help but wonder when he will be able to see Zhang Ran and Liu Yifei again. Of course, he also knew that it was impossible. Zhang Ran and Liu Yifei are now extraordinary, one has become a big director, and the other has become a big star, how can they remember themselves as an old man selling rock sugar gourds!

Now that Zhang Ran really appeared in front of him, the old man felt like a dream, not to mention how excited: "You know each other, you are the director of Zhang Ran, when you used to teach at Nortel, in order to let your apprentice Liu Yifei have that experience, buy rock sugar gourds from me to sell!"

Liu Yifei also took off his sunglasses and mask: "Grandpa, you recognize my master, so do you still recognize me?"

The old man said excitedly: "You know each other, you are Liu Yifei, you are the apprentice of director Zhang Ran, you used to buy rock sugar gourds with your master to sell them from me, you were still very young at that time, only 14 or 5 years old, and now you have become a big star!"
