"What? You say that Dimao learned to go to my grandfather's birthday party? Ying Ru heard Ji Man's voice coming from the other end of the phone, and immediately stood up in shock.

Ji Man smiled and nodded: "Yes!" ”

She paused, and then said, "However, he has been out of shadow for many years, and even if you look for him, he may not be willing to go out of the mountain." It's not that she doesn't think about Ying Ruyi's ability, but after all, this script is still a little more comedy, not a typical literary film, and Di Maoxue is a bit of a person who can't rub sand in his eyes in acting, so Ji Man was really shocked when he learned that Ying Ru wanted Di Maoxue to play Xu Taihe.

Ying Ru pursed her lips, on her grandfather's birthday in her previous life, many things happened so suddenly, she didn't pay attention to the specific people who attended the birthday banquet.

"Then try it too!" So it should be.

She tried to find Di Maoxue's previous agent in the past two days, but the agent only told her that Di Maoxue planned to retire and would no longer film in principle.

Although it was rejected in one bite, it was the three words "in principle" that made Ying Ru regain his spirits, in principle, these three words are very subtle, and the subtext is that if you really encounter a good script, you will still take the play, but it depends on the quality of the script!

The birthday banquet of the old man of the Lin family is next Tuesday, and it is scheduled at a private club in the imperial capital.

Lu Sinian helped Ying Ru buy the lark from his friend, but Lu Sinian's friend Ren Ye heard that his girlfriend wanted it, so he didn't say a word, didn't ask for a penny, and gave it to Ying Ru directly.

"I'm a bird, and I don't sell it when others buy it at a big price." Ren Ye's Beijing film flavor is much stronger than Lu Sinian, he proudly pointed to the caged bird and said, "This lark, there are more calls that can be learned, the old emperors under the roots of our imperial city pay attention to thirteen sets of big mouths, that is, let the larks learn thirteen different sounds, such as sparrow noise forest, mountain magpie call, house swallow whisper, cat call, hen egg, waterwheel sound, dog sound, reed warbler call, cicada call, eagle song, but these thirteen sets of calls must be called in order, if the call is wrong, the bird is not worth anything." ”

Ying Ru bowed slightly, and then asked with a smile: "Then what's the point about this outer cover?" Can you tell me about it? ”

"Don't you dare! But you're asking the right question. Ren Ye slapped his thigh and preached endlessly, "If you are an expert, just by looking at this cover, you don't need to look inside to know what kind of bird you raise. The yellow bird likes a little darker light, and covers it with a bamboo-colored cloth, and it can also prevent it from learning a call that it should not learn and dirty its mouth; The lark cage is spread with sand, and the light is darkened with a blue cloth, so that the lark can calm down and not shave sand. There is also a fear of birds frightened, for example, the lark is most afraid of red, when walking the bird on the street, suddenly jumped out of a red clothes, the bird can't stand it, and once the bird is startled, it will be wasted, in addition to the prevention of dirty mouth, can not let the bird listen to the messy sound, once the lark learns the call it should not learn, the bird is also wasted. ”

After hearing this, Ying nodded again and again: "Taught, taught." ”

Lu Sinian on the side looked at the conversation between her and Ren Ye, and smiled slightly at the corner of her lips, she rarely spoke with a Beijing accent, but when she met Ren Ye, it was as if she had been turned on by something, and her mouth was full of Beijing films.

"If you don't blow it to you, just play with birds, no one in the imperial city can be more authentic than me." Ren Yele said happily, "Just a few days ago, I just received an eagle. ”

"Eagle?" You almost thought you had misheard.

"Isn't it an eagle? The scientific name is the math falcon. Ren Ye's eyebrows fluttered at the mention of this, "Just came back from Inner Mongolia, do you know Hai Dongqing?" ”

"Isn't that a totem full of people? And now? ”

"That's right! The falcon is Hai Dongqing, and it took me a lot of money to collect it. Speaking of this, Ren Ye's expression was a little regretful, "It's a pity, this bird is too strong, my daughter-in-law refused to raise it, and asked me to sell it." ”

Ren Ye is two years older than Lu Si, the two have known each other since childhood, and they can be regarded as relatives, but the relationship is a bit far away, the Ren family is mainly to develop the cultural world, Ren Ye's parents and grandparents are professors of Imperial Capital University and Yenching University, to Ren Ye's generation, graduated from Imperial Capital University with a bachelor's degree, which is a good academic qualification among ordinary people, but it is not a fart in the Ren family, but in this regard, the Ren family is quite open-minded, and it did not force Ren Ye to study for a doctorate. Now Ren Ye also has three or four antique shops under his hands.

After sending Ren Ye away, Ying Ru couldn't help asking, "You two had a good relationship back then?" ”

"Well, his grandmother is my grandmother's sister." Lu Sinian remembered what happened when he was a child, and couldn't help but smile, "It's from a cousin, I still have to call him brother, but I haven't called him since I was a child." ”

Ying Ru was a little curious: "What were you like when you were a child?" ”

Now Lu Sinian, the power is in his hands, and there is no one in the emperor who doesn't want to stammer, when she is not familiar with him, she can also feel that he is often cold and rejects people thousands of miles away, and after getting acquainted, he is only good to her.

"When I was a child...... Lu Sinian's eyebrows overflowed with a trace of trance, and after a moment, a smile rose at the corner of his lips, "I was very skinny when I was a child, and I was often beaten by my sister." ”

Should be like this, shocked to no, Lu Jingzhi beat Lu Sinian? It's really unimaginable.

But after thinking about it, Lu Jingzhi was eighteen years older than Lu Si, no wonder, she was about to ask something about him when he was a child, but she saw that he didn't seem to want to mention it, so she didn't ask anymore.

"By the way, will you go on my grandfather's birthday banquet?" Ying Ru suddenly asked.

Lu Sinian bowed slightly: "Yes." ”

This answer was not unexpected, in fact, during the grandfather's birthday banquet in the previous life, Lu Sinian also went, and bumped into her to find Duan Wenhan...... She was really fascinated by ghosts in the first place, how could she be stupid like that?

In fact, the Lin family is definitely not as high as the Lu family now, but when the old man of the Lin family was young, he still had a good relationship with the Lu family, so no one from the Lu family attended the usual banquet of the Lin family, but Lu Sinian would definitely go to the birthday banquet of the old man Lin.

Ying Ru hugged Lu Sinian's waist and said with a smile: "Then I will act when the opportunity arises to find you!" ”

She can't expose her relationship with Lu Sinian now, but when Lu Sinian went to the scene, she would definitely still want to go to him.

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day of the birthday banquet of the old man of the Lin family, and in the face of the old man Lin when he was young, the banquet of the Lin family today basically gathered the most powerful and powerful upper-class people in the entire imperial capital.

"Mengmeng." Jiang Hui pushed the door and entered.

At this time, Lin Ruomeng was doing makeup, and when she heard Jiang Hui's voice, she turned around and smiled sweetly: "Mom, why are you here?" As soon as she finished saying this, she sighed in amazement: "Mom, your dress is so beautiful today!" It's sure to be overwhelming! ”

Jiang Hui was a little embarrassed by her praise, covered her lips and smiled: "I'm in my forties, how can I compare with a little girl?" ”

"I don't care! My mom is the prettiest in the show! Lin Ruomeng said coquettishly.

Jiang Hui was very happy to be coaxed by her, in fact, since the matter of preparing the birthday banquet for the old man, her mood has been in a state of irritability.

Jiang Hui and Lin Xuehai were afraid that the old man would have any family affection after seeing Ying Ruis, and it would be inconvenient to act in the future, so they kept dragging this matter on the grounds that the old man was not in good health, and Ying Ru was busy with his studies, and now that the old man is eighty years old, he naturally can't delay it anymore.

Just a few days ago, she learned from Lin Xuehai's mouth that the old man actually intended to add the name that should be the same to the will, that is, the old man wanted to give this granddaughter who had never met an inheritance! The old man's inheritance was originally eyed by many people, Lin Xuehai also has an elder brother, who has been doing business in the United States all these years, and now the old man is still planning to give a little to Ying Rus, and it is the same number of shares as Ruize, which is higher than Mengmeng! This is what makes Jiang Hui unable to sit still!

She looked up and smiled at Lin Ruomeng after putting on her makeup, and only after the makeup artist went out did Jiang Hui speak: "Lu Shijiu will also come today, you have to behave well, don't disappoint your mother, you know?" ”

Lin Ruomeng's eyes flashed slightly, and then nodded with a smile: "Mom, I know." ”

"Before, my mother has asked people to inquire about Lu Shijiu's preferences to you, have you seen them all?" Jiang Hui asked again.

Lin Ruomeng said with a smile: "I've finished reading it." ”

Jiang Hui listened to her words, got up from the sofa, walked to Lin Ruomeng's side, lovingly helped her straighten her skirt with her hand, and said softly: "Although it is said that the old lady of the Lu family is interested in Xie Chuyi, but for so many years, I haven't seen Lu Shijiu treat Xie Chuyi well, which means that he doesn't like Xie Chuyi, our Lin family is no worse than the Xie family in the imperial capital, as long as you can make Lu Shijiu look at you differently, Old Lady Lu loves her grandson so much, she will still nod in the end." ”

"Xie Chuyi will also come today." Lin Ruomeng's expression was a little worried, "She's so good, I'm still a little nervous." ”

Jiang Hui glanced at her disapprovingly: "Mengmeng, you are no worse than her!" Although she is studying for graduate school and a doctorate, you are about to hold a concert, you must know that it is useless for women to get a high degree, and men still don't like it. ”

The two were talking, and suddenly, the door was slammed open from the outside, and Lin Ruize stood at the door with a blue face.

"Mom, do you want Meng Meng to hook up with Lu Nineteen?"
