Chapter Twenty-Nine: Return to Beijing
After 96 years, many major events have happened that are destined to be recorded in history.
French President Francois Mitterrand died, scientists unravel the mystery of why chimpanzees can't speak, the relationship between Hong Kong Island and the mainland has changed from underground sneakiness to blatant aboveground, and the launch failure of the Long March 3 carrier rocket In short, many people died and a lot happened.
However, it is not used for globules.
These have nothing to do with Di Yun, he has the joy of playing with his friends every day, he has caught rabbits in the mountains, forked fish in the river, watched the killing of New Year's pigs, and went to the town's big market with his sleeves for a long time, ate some snacks, bought some New Year's goods, and then spent the Spring Festival in peace and comfort.
Today is the eleventh day of the New Year, February 29 in the solar calendar, the last day of the month. The calendar says that it is forbidden to travel, and it is advisable to get married. He didn't know how this was calculated, anyway, there were not so many taboos, and he was rushing from Suzhou to the capital at this time.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the old man suddenly took him into the city, and he went to the Western Film Factory. It turned out that the filming of "Water Margin" was being prepared here, and the old man was hired as a martial arts instructor, so he thought about asking his grandson for a role in it. However, this drama is still in preparation, and it is estimated that the start of filming will take more than April.
On the same day, I received a call from Suzhou, so I rushed home and packed my bags and rushed to the Fengyue crew. The snow in Chang'an has not yet cleared up, full of mud, but the rain in Suzhou has not left a trace, the sky is beautiful, it is a sunny day for five consecutive days, and the remaining fragmentary shots are shot smoothly.
After eating the finale banquet and getting paid, there was nothing to be nostalgic about in this place, so I took the train to the capital overnight.
âŚâŚ
Back in the small courtyard, the first thing I saw was the girl's room opposite, but unfortunately there were still two days before the start of school, and the girl had not yet come, and the door was locked.
"Yo Xiaoyunzi is back, why is it so early?" Old man Liu heard the movement, came out to take a look, and saw Di Yun standing in the courtyard, he shouted exaggeratedly, and glanced at the girl's door with his eyes and said, "There are still a few days before school starts, why are you so anxious." â
Di Yun was about to say hello and couldn't say it in his throat, he rolled his eyes and ignored it, and said to the old lady who came out next: "Teacher Liu, how is the New Year?" â
"Okay." The old lady smiled and nodded, "How is the family?" â
"It's all good." Di Yun replied with a smile.
The old lady beckoned to him and said, "Xiaoyun, come in and sit down, it just so happens that Qiangzi is also here, you can talk." â
"That's fine."
After entering the house, Di Yun said hello to Liu Qiang, his eyes swept the house, and he didn't see the daughter of the old couple, so he didn't ask much. Take a small jar out of your bag and place it on the table.
There was also a hard box in the bag, which was a gift for the girl, a jade dog paperweight that he braved the wind and snow to go to Lantian for a long time to pick up for a long time and spent 600 yuan to buy.
"What's that?" Old man Liu asked with interest.
Di Yun knew that he liked to drink two glasses when he had something to do, so he specially asked for a small jar of wine from the old man and brought it over. I first brought it to Suzhou, and then brought it from Suzhou, although it is not a valuable thing, but the affection is not light.
He replied, "My grandfather's own wine." â
The old man was a knowledgeable man, and knew that the wine made by the people of the mountains and wilderness was often not ordinary, and his eyes shone brightly to unseal the mud and pull out the stopper.
Suddenly, a strong smell of wine mixed with the smell of medicine diffused. This taste is a bit unbearable for people who don't like to drink alcohol, but it is simply a supreme treat for those who have a good taste. Old man Liu squinted his eyes and sniffed as if he was smoking a big cigarette.
Liu Qiang shrugged his nose and said, "What is brewed, why does it taste so rushed?" â
Di Yun said with a smile: "The wine is made from grain, but there are a lot of ingredients added to it. â
Old man Liu came back to his senses, quickly stuffed the stopper, and said to Liu Qiang: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, what's so rushed, this is really good wine." Hurry up and get the cup. â
Liu Qiang went and fetched three cups.
Old man Liu waved his hand and said, "Take another one, your mother can drink some of this wine." â
Di Yun hurriedly stopped and said, "No need, no need." Three is just right, I can't drink this wine. â
"Why can't you drink it?" Liu Qiang asked puzzledly, "I remember that you can drink." â
Old man Liu laughed beside him, his eyes glanced at Di Yun inexplicably, and he laughed: "Shout, I didn't expect Xiao Yunzi to be a good man who guards himself like jade!" â
Little Yunzi? Guarding yourself like jade? Child... Son, your sister! You are as good as jade, and your whole family is like jade! Di Yun complained wildly in his heart, this old guy is really getting more and more undisciplined, and he is so open-mouthed that he can say anything.
However, this has been used to teasing, disdainful of it, turned his head to Liu Qiang and explained: "There are some medicinal herbs and the like in it, and the yang energy is a little heavy..."
This wine is not very strong, and the stomach is warm when you drink it, but the young man will have a kind of restlessness in his body when he drinks it, which is still a good thing for one. It's a torture for a big boy with a male body. He drank it once and then he didn't dare to drink it again.
"Oh, I see!" Liu Qiang nodded, with a little urgency on his face.
Seconds understood. It seems that the son follows the father, and this guy is not a good bird. Di Yun pursed his lips.
Just after the end of the year, there was no shortage of anything in the kitchen, and Di Yun was added, and the old lady added two more dishes, which were quickly cleaned up and served.
I didn't drink too much wine, and after one person drank two glasses lightly, Old Man Liu put away the wine jar, sealed it and hid it in the house, the treasure was terrible.
Liu Qiang suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way, I'll tell you something." â
"What's the matter?" Di Yun swallowed the food in his mouth and asked.
"Didn't I introduce you to the movie of Zhang Jianya some time ago...... What's the name? â
"Monkey King."
"Yes, yes, that's it." Liu Qiang said: "Half of the shot is yellow." â
"Why?" Di Yun was puzzled, was this movie quite awesome, known as the first blockbuster with full special effects, why did it suddenly stop shooting.
"It seems that the producer withdrew the fund, and I don't know what the reason is."
The producer withdrew the investment halfway, in fact, the biggest loss is still the producer, and the people in the crew at most have spent time and have no gain, but the producer has really lost the initial investment, and I don't know what went wrong to make such a decision.
However, the water is too deep to be explained in a few words. Di Yun thought indifferently, stop filming and stop filming, it has nothing to do with him, and he played a small role in it that is one grade higher than passer-by, and basically has no sense of zĂ i. Besides, the salary has already been paid, and it doesn't matter to him whether the filming is stopped or released.
After eating, I returned to my house, first opened all the doors and windows to ventilate, and then took a shower to wash away the dust and dust on the way.
After a day on the train, I was indeed a little tired at this time, and I was tired. After seeing that the time was only two o'clock, he did not rest, for fear that he would fall asleep and simmer until night, and he would not be able to sleep at night.
After thinking about it, I took out the second half of the salary of "Fengyue" from the bag, 30,000 yuan. It's always a little uneasy to put it in the room, but it's more reassuring to deposit it in the zĂ i bank.
Just after the Spring Festival, some units have not yet gone to work, there are many idlers on the street, and there seem to be more vehicles. Although it has not yet reached the point where it is blocked, it has been able to come up with some clues.
Di Yun exchanged 30,000 yuan for a passbook, carefully folded it and stuffed it into the pocket of his underwear. Hands in the hands and casually walking down the street.
I haven't seen each other for nearly two months, and there have been some changes in this capital. The city is always changing so fast, and you'll have to get to know it again after a while. But at this time, his mentality is already different from before, and the sense of belonging is still gone, but the sense of floating without roots and evidence is gone.
I went back home to see my relatives, and lived a comfortable and idle country life, and suddenly I had roots. It is that small courtyard, the relatives in it, the roots he has rooted in this world, and the source of his strength. It seems that there is an extra rope in my heart, which ties the originally lonely and confused heart, no matter how far I float, I will always fall back in the end, which is very down-to-earth and has special confidence.
It seems that a lot has changed, and there are more international friends on the street than in previous years. At this moment, Di Yun's eyes were following the two foreign girls.
Chinese people do not have a high degree of recognition of faces in Western countries, and Di Yun is no exception. When you see a white-skinned blond and blue-eyed person, you make up your own brain to make up for Russia or the United States, and other countries can't think of it at all, and when you see a dark-skinned person, you say it's African, and you only remember the characteristic of Africa. As for the yellow-skinned and black-haired Asian, as long as people don't open their mouths to speak, he definitely can't tell whether it's Rijima or Xiao Han.
The two blonde foreign girls saw a circle of people on the side of the street, so they went up to see the excitement.
Di Yun was idle, and when he saw that there was a bustle to see, he also followed. Standing not far from the two girls, he squinted and glanced at the faces of the two girls, but he almost didn't throw up. Looking at the two of them, they are quite demonic, but this appearance is really not flattering. One is an old lady with a wrinkled face, and the other is young but young, but her face is full of pimples, and with her green eyes, she can make people have nightmares at night.
Di Yun sounded a few witty words sung by the children: ** When you turn around, you will scare a cow by the river to death; ** Second, turn around and intimidate a row of school buildings; **Three times around, the landslide cracks and the water flows backwards; **Four turns, the sun and the moon have no light and ghosts are sad......
Look at the back and want to commit a crime, look at the front and want to defend yourself, a proper back killer.
Quickly turned his head to look into the middle of the crowd.
This look, I'm happy, I'm still an acquaintance.
A young man in his twenties, with long hair, was holding a guitar and playing and singing to himself:
Ideals are always flying around
Disembodied
Reality is still real
There is no way to hide
Full of **
The body has no strength
