Chapter 770: Killing Three Birds with One Stone
After receiving the task from the second brother, Wen Xu also searched the place where Lao Bai usually hid things, but unfortunately he didn't even find a piece of silver dollar hair, and Wen Xu naturally had to keep an eye on Lao Bai in the next two days.
Who knew that Lao Bai hadn't even left the yard in the past two days, except for sleeping at home, he was left to eat and bask in the sun, which made Wen Xu feel a little depressed.
In the morning, the sun hung on the treetops, and the temperature in the yard rose, Wen Xu followed Lao Bai out of the yard, ready to see Lao Bai go out, and he chased after him with the pillars, who knew that Lao Bai lazily leaned against the wall in the yard, rolled a few times and was ready to sleep.
Wen Xu walked to Lao Bai's side: "I said that you are holding something, you have been staring at you for several days, can you give a little help?"
While saying Wen Xu, he also stretched out his finger and gently poked it a few times on Lao Bai's soft belly.
Now there is a lot of meat on Lao Bai's belly, and Wen Xu's fingers poked and immediately sank into a large piece, and the meat was pouting.
Lao Bai was very unhappy and looked at Wen Xu with his small eyes, as if he felt that Wen Xu blocked its sunlight, he moved a few times on the ground like a snake, and lazily lay down in the sun to continue to prepare for sleep.
Wen Xu is accustomed to Lao Bai's habits, knowing that if it lies down like this without accidents, it is estimated that he will not be able to get up for two hours, and now this guy has a 'swimming ring' on his lazy body.
Wen Xu had to stand up, put his chaise longue under the shade of a tree, and then went into the house to make himself a pot of tea, who knew that when he entered the house, he found that there was not much tea in his tea box, and only a handful of tea leaves could not even cover the bottom of the can.
"Shhh
Wen Xu looked at the empty tea jar, and felt that he had to go into the space to pick the tea today, and then get himself a half-catty tea bag, so that he could entertain the guests by the way.
Thinking of this, Wen Xu put down the tea box, turned around and went to the studio in the backyard, and then honestly got into the space, as soon as he entered the space, Wen Xu saw several wolf cubs hunted in the space that had grown into strong adult male wolves, and then remembered that he had forgotten one thing again, that is, to release them back to nature.
After thinking about it a little in his mind, Wen Xu decided that it was better to pick and fry his own tea leaves first, picking tea in the space was not a ladder for Wen Xu, and he didn't need to touch the tea leaves with his hands, so he pinched and pinched his fingers, and the young leaves that Wen Xu liked were picked from the tree right, and then the young branches went into the small iron pot of roasting tea with a flick of his hand.
After working for almost twenty minutes, the young leaves have covered the bottom of the pot, Wen Xu looked at it almost, so he lit a fire, and began to slowly copy it in the pot with his hands, and the tea leaves in the pot kept tumbling through the space, and after a few steps, Wen Xu's new tea was fried about half a catty.
As soon as he arrived in the front yard after leaving the space, Wen Xu saw the fourth brother Wen Shijie walking towards the door with his hands behind his back, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Fourth brother, is there something wrong with you?"
"Hey, I thought your kid wasn't at home!" As soon as Wen Shijie heard Wen Xu speak, he immediately turned his head and saw Wen Xu coming out of the backyard with a strange expression: "I shouted at the door of your studio several times and you didn't hear it?"
"I'm too involved in doing things, by the way, what's the matter with the fourth brother coming over at this time?" Wen Xu hurriedly diverted the topic.
"That's right, the list of the first batch of overseas trips is out, we mean you are added to the first batch!" Wen Shijie didn't care where Wen Xue came from, what he was thinking about now was to solve the matter that Wen Xue wanted to talk about, as for whether Wen Xue came out of the studio or out of the mouse hole, the old man didn't care at all and didn't want to continue to talk about it.
"Why?" Wen Xu didn't understand why he wanted to add himself to the first batch of people who wanted to go.
Wen Shijie said: "You are good at English, and with you with you, the villagers also have a bottom in their hearts!"
Hearing the fourth brother say this, Wen Xu was directly happy: "I said that you also think too much, didn't you all contact the travel agency for you? What are you afraid of, there are so many people who go abroad now, many of them don't know English."
"I told everyone, but everyone thinks that there must be someone in the team who can speak birds, so we don't have to be cheated by others, right? Since everyone said so, you go out with the first batch of people this time, and wait for the next batch to be led by the division director, do you think it will be possible?" Wen Shijie persuaded.
Wen Xu said with a bitter face: "I said fourth brother, you are really good, I and Shang are really two people, why are you all wives and children together when you go out to play, and we have to go out separately as husband and wife?"
Wen Shijie said: "This is also a special situation, besides, the two of you in the village can speak English, you have to overcome the difficulties, and after the study of our village committee, it is decided that this time it is your work, waiting for the second team to come back, and directly arrange a trip abroad for the two of you, the kind that the village will fully reimburse, do you think it will be successful?"
"What does Shang Zhen mean?"
"I told you about the collective decision of the village committee, do you think I can come over with you if the director's younger siblings don't nod?" Wen Shijie said.
"Okay!" Wen Xu thought about it, then go, what else is there to say.
Wen Shijie saw Wen Xu nodding and turned around to go to the house, and immediately called Wen Xu: "Hey, hey, I haven't finished my words yet!"
"What else is going on?" Wen Xu asked, standing still and turning around.
"The second brother asked me to tell you about that matter, he has eyebrows, I asked what happened, and he said that he would know as soon as he told you."
Wen Xu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the second brother was talking about finding the eighth master's heir, but Wen Xu didn't expect to have eyebrows so soon.
"So fast?" Wen Xu couldn't help but say.
Wen Shijie was actually quite curious in his heart, but he didn't open his mouth to ask more, since the second brother didn't say clearly that he thought this was a secret matter, so he thought it could be a clan matter.
"Okay, I'll tell you about it"
After saying that, Wen Shijie turned around and left the small courtyard, Wen Xumu sent the fourth brother out, then turned back to the house, poured the freshly fried tea into the tea box, pinched a small handful and brewed a pot and held it in his hand.
When he arrived in the courtyard, he was lying on the recliner, Wen Xu was still thinking about what the second brother said, but he didn't expect that in just a few days, the second brother Wen Shigui actually had eyebrows. Originally, I thought that there had been no contact for twenty or thirty years, and the changes in the country were so big, it would take at least half a year to have results, and the biggest possibility was that Wen Xu thought that there was a vast sea of people directly, but he didn't expect to be contacted so quickly.
While thinking about this, he put the spout into his mouth from time to time to take a sip of tea, and then continued to think about the silver dollar.
"Yo, you kid has been living this day!"
Hearing the human voice, Wen Xu opened his eyes and saw that Old Man Jia was holding a straw hat in one hand, fanning and looking at himself happily.
"Okay, you old man Jia, it's just in time, I have an old account to settle with you" Wen Xu saw that Old Man Jia was back, and immediately stood up from the chair while laughing.
"What about the two little tigers? If that's the case, you can draw a line for me, and I'll do it!" Old man Jia was also not polite, seeing Wen Xu getting up, he immediately motioned for him to sit down, and he walked under the cornice, took another chaise longue leaning against the wall, and placed it directly next to Wen Xu.
"You know, it's good to make up for the food expenses for me first, these two little guys will have to pay a thousand yuan for milk powder alone a month, not counting the ...... of my own sheep feeding them" Wen Xu heard the old man admit the account and immediately began to calculate with him.
When Old Man Jia heard this, he immediately smiled: "Let's be honest, now I don't have any children, and I don't plan to give them!
"Hey, you said I had such a temper!" Wen Xu smiled and rolled up his sleeves: "You learned badly from Old Man Chi, you haven't been so slippery before!"
"I've been looking at tigers and leopards all day, and I'm a little happy to suddenly see so many people today!" said Old Man Jia with a smile.
Hearing the old man say this, Wen Xu carefully measured the old man: "I said old man, your life in the forest seems to be good, you see that it is much whiter than before, and this spirit is also good!"
Mr. Jia has spent almost all of his time in the old forest for more than a year, and now the old man is also a figure in the zoology world, and he has published several papers that have weight in the world, and now no one wears small shoes for him, and the research funds are also abundant.
It may be that the whole person is invested in what he likes to do, and the old man is actually a little rejuvenated now, and now he looks at least five or six years younger than when he first met him, and the hair that originally didn't have a few hairs on the top of his head is now a little black.
"People like to be in good spirits, isn't that who said, the happiest thing in a person's life is to be with the person you like, do what you like, now I live like this every day, and some scholars with the same interests, study animals in nature, figure out their living habits......" As soon as Mr. Jia mentioned this, he immediately became a little speechless.
Wen Xu hurriedly stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture: "Stop, stop! Don't tell me this, I'm not interested in this! Are you going to stay in the village for a few days this time?"
"Four or five days, don't you want a physical examination, I still have a group of American and British zoologists have come back, on the one hand, because of the physical examination, and everyone also has to trim it, the most important thing is that the BBC documentary "Super Cat from the Dead" has been done, and the premiere has been put on the pearl, and we are invited to participate. No, I thought of you first and sent you a ticket!"
After speaking, the old man took out a big red invitation card from his pocket and handed it to Wen Xu.
Wen Xu opened it and took a look, and found that the invitation card said that Wen Xu and his wife were invited to participate in the premiere of "Super Big Cat from the Dead".
"Yo, these guys haven't forgotten about me! It's quite formal, but I'm much closer to you here, why didn't this invitation go to me, but to you?" Wen Xu said.
The BBC interviewed Wen Xue when filming this film, and it lasted about ten minutes, so Wen Xu had an invitation to get it, and it was still the best middle row in the hall.
Mr. Jia said with a smile: "This kind of film is not a big hit, and the distributor must not consider the cost, so the invitations for our film are all to our university, and I just arrived here today, and I just sent it to you as soon as I saw it."
"Tsk, the location is still in Mingzhu! It's a seven- or eight-hour round-trip car" Wen Xu took the invitation card and patted it lightly in his palm, making a snapping sound.
Old Man Jia said: "If you don't go, you can give it to others!"
As he spoke, the old man reached out and wanted to snatch the invitation card from Wen Xu's hand.
"Who said I wasn't going!" Wen Xu immediately retracted his hand and dodged the old man's 'thief'.
The reason why Wen Xu wants to go is that there is an actor he likes in the dubbing of the Chinese brand, of course, Wen Xu's favorite is definitely not Xiao Xianrou, he is an old artist in his sixties, and now few young people know his name, if you say that you specifically go to see him Wen Xu is probably not interested.
It's not the premiere now, and maybe he will appear in the film, so Wen Xu is ready to kill three birds with one stone, not only to see the old artist, but also to see the premiere of the first movie in his life, and if he appears in the movie, how can he miss it.
