Chapter 13: The New Life

I don't know when, it started to rain outside, and almost instantly, the rain spread wildly and swept the whole city.

Xu Zhexia and Jiang Yanzhi's steps were blocked by the heavy rain, and the raindrops hit the window, making a crisp and pleasant sound, Xu Zhexia stood at the door, watching the shadows of the trees swaying outside the window, and the rain struck.

She seemed to suddenly think of something, everyone became a little nervous, the hand holding the flower tightened unconsciously, the lightning split the entire sky in two, and after a few seconds, only a boom was heard, and Xu Zhexia only felt that the whole person was a little stiff.

She has always been the most afraid of this kind of rainy day, especially the heavy rain and thunder and lightning, which will scare her every time, so when she was a child, whenever it was windy, rainy and lightning, Xu Zhexia would hold her little rabbit and run to her mother's room next door, and then climb into bed with her hands and feet, shrink into a small ball and hide in that warm embrace.

Even if there is nothing for her to rely on later, Xu Zhexia is still the most afraid of this kind of weather.

Jiang Yanzhi probably noticed that her current state was a little abnormal, walked to the position at the level of Xu Zhexia, reached out to take her hand, put it in his palm, held it carefully, and patted the back of her hand rhythmically with one hand.

Xu Zhexia probably didn't expect Jiang Yanzhi's reaction, and when he looked up at him, his eyes were full of disbelief, and his beautiful eyes were full of doubt.

Jiang Yanzhi just smiled and didn't say anything, but at this time, no words were better than words, and Xu Zhexia felt that his restless heart was soothed in this way.

The rain outside the window gradually subsided, and the two men left the flower shop where they had temporarily taken shelter from the rain and were on their way to the cemetery.

The dark clouds swirling in the sky dispersed little by little, and Jiang Yanzhi took Xu Zhixia's hand, I don't know if it was because of the rain just now, and the surrounding air was mixed with a faint fragrance of earth.

Along the way, Xu Zhexia didn't say a word, and it wasn't until she stood at the gate of the cemetery that she raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Yanzhi.

"I'll go myself."

She laughed a little, then said very seriously.

Jiang Yan was a little uneasy, but looking at her firm eyes, he was finally deflated, he sent the pre-selected bellflower to Xu Zhexia, and then said to her softly: "Okay, then I'll wait for you here, remember to say hello to my mother-in-law." ”

Xu Zhexia nodded, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Okay, I will." ”

After saying that, he let go of Jiang Yanzhi's hand holding him.

With a slender white hand, he pushed open the gate of the cemetery little by little, and Xu Zhixia walked up from the steps on the side.

Lin Zhongxia's tomb is the seventh in the seventh row, which is the place personally selected by his father, and the seventh day of July is the day when Xu Zhexia's father first met his mother, and they probably fell in love at first sight, which is a rare perfect love story in this circle.

Probably because God can't see people becoming happy, so it's a pity that in the third year after marriage, when Xu Zhexia was three years old, Lin Zhongxia left this world forever.

Folded summer.

Fold down midsummer.

She stood alone in front of the tombstone, put the two bouquets of flowers in her hand in front of the tombstone, Xu Zhexia stood quietly like this, looking at the smiling woman in the photo, she smiled and shouted in a low voice: "Mom." ”

Xu Zhexia's voice was very small, with a slight whimpering sound, she stood in front of the tombstone, stretched out her hand to stroke the engraved words, the tomb of her beloved wife Lin Zhongxia, her hand stayed on the last summer word, I don't know what she thought of, tears rolled down in big drops, and she said very seriously: "I got the heroine of "Midsummer". ”

As if waiting for a response, Xu Zhexia didn't continue, she looked at the person in front of her, hooked her lips and smiled: "I don't know, if I will star in this movie, will it be what you want." ”

I don't know where the wind blows, bringing a tender green leaf, is Lin Zhongxia's answer.

"Since I'm about to fulfill your dream, I'll live according to my own habits from now on." When Xu Zhexia said this, with a thick nasal voice, it sounded, but it was unusually happy, she chuckled, her eyes were dim, and a little bit dyed with a faint, hopeful light, "Mom, after me, I won't come to see you often, I wish you a happy life over there." ”

She looked at the tombstone, put down her hand, raised her foot and planned to leave, just took a step, suddenly thought of something, she turned her head, looked at the tombstone, and said firmly and seriously: "It's good, I don't have to live in your shadow in the future." ”

The sound fell, Xu Zhexia left without thinking about nostalgia, the wind blew across her cheeks, bringing up the broken hair on the sides of her cheeks, and a huge stone fell on the bottom of her heart, Xu Zhexia only felt that she was rejuvenated.

She trotted all the way to Jiang Yanzhi, and threw herself into his arms.

Jiang Yanzhi looked at the head buried in front of him, and gently rubbed his hand: "Let's go back." ”

Xu Zhexia nodded, smiled at Jiang Yanzhi, and then was still led by the man into the car.

When Maybach drove away from the cemetery, Xu Zhixia only felt that her whole body was relaxed, she leaned against the window, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

In Beishan Manor, Xu Zhexia was hugged by Jiang Yanzhi and got off.

Mother Jiang looked at her daughter-in-law who was sleeping soundly in Jiang Yanzhi's arms, and the anger she wanted to get out of her mouth turned into a kind ask: "Why did you fall asleep?" ”

"I guess I've talked a lot, and I'm really tired."

Jiang Yanzhi explained in a low voice, and walked upstairs with Xu Zhexia in his arms.

In the living room, Xue Yao held an apple in one hand and a script in the other, and began to scribble on it.

Her job is an editor, she has always learned about literary discovery, and she has successfully established her own company, which is a small book city, the main content is publishing, and the basic books that have become more popular in recent years have been signed and printed from her, I have to say that Xue Yao is still a little successful, and what she is holding now happens to be the script of the movie "Midsummer".

After Jiang Yanzhi put Xu Zhexia down, he came to the living room and began to discuss the adaptation with Xue Yao and the others.

Now that this book has successfully fallen into the hands of the Jiang family, Jiang Yanzhi thinks about it, and this important task is still the most suitable to be handed over to Xue Yao.

It's just that Xue Yao is suffering now, not only to read the script and change the script, but also to help choose the leading actor.

Especially now, she actually doesn't know much about these stars in the entertainment industry, and the whole thing is a big headache.

She suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and turned her head to Shangjiang Yanzhi's gaze: "How is it, is she okay?" ”

Jiang Yanzhi nodded and sat down next to Xue Yao: "It should be not bad, the knot in my heart should be opened." ”

Xue Yao didn't speak, she looked around, Jiang Mu was busy in the kitchen, and she couldn't hear the two of them talking.

"It's best to be able to open it, otherwise I'll feel tired looking at her." She shook her head, and there was a little melancholy when she spoke, as if she suddenly remembered something, Xue Yao looked at Jiang Yanzhi and asked uncertainly, "Did Mom urge you?" ”

What she said was not a question, it was with affirmation, and it was obvious that she already had the answer in her heart, but she still asked it.

How could Jiang Yanzhi not understand what Xue Yao meant, he nodded and admitted, it is true that the two of them have been married for more than a year, and a normal family should have put this matter on the agenda a long time ago, but Jiang Yanzhi and Yu Juan are actually very clear that the marriage of the two of them is itself a product of forcible demand, there is no emotional foundation, and they are together completely because of the parents of the two families.

Jiang Yanzhi is clear about this, and Xu Zhexia is also clear about it.

Xue Yao looked at Jiang Yanzhi, in fact, she could understand, and even said that she was very sympathetic to Xu Zhexia, this was not something she could choose, more often, she could only do better on the basis of what she had.

"By the way, the male protagonist of "Midsummer", do the old men on the board of directors have any ideas?"

Xue Yao put down the script in his hand, as if he was thinking about the most suitable person for the male lead.

"On the board of directors, they naturally want to give it to their own artists, and most of them think that if Xu Zhexia is the heroine, it must be a good thing, and it will be better to bring newcomers."

Jiang Yanzhi said the actual situation, and when the meeting was held in the morning, several old shareholders of Binjiang Entertainment had already expressed their thoughts, but he hadn't nodded yet, and he didn't dare to let newcomers participate in the performance.

Xue Yao actually thought that the board of directors should have given a lot of pressure, she thought about it, and said objectively: "Indeed, Xu Zhexia has already decided to play the heroine, except for the two three-gold actors, there is no one in the circle who can compete with her, but if this drama uses a newcomer, it will inevitably affect the quality." ”

The book "Midsummer" is now the top priority, and Jiang Yanzhi will find Xue Yao as a screenwriter to participate in the casting, which means that most of the filming rights of this drama are required to be in the hands of the Jiang family.

"Do you want to consider coming to the entertainment industry?"

Xue Yao looked at Jiang Yanzhi's angular face, and suddenly spoke, "Your face is still quite resistant, not to mention, you are Aunt Lin's son-in-law, I think if you perform it, Aunt Lin will not have any opinions." ”

"Nope."

Before Jiang Yanzhi could speak, Xu Zhexia's resolute voice sounded behind him.

She held the staircase handle with one hand, her eyes steadfast.

"Sister, you just have to find someone to play, no matter what kind of senior in the entertainment industry or the three gold actors, I will find a way, don't care what I Chen Xu said, you can rest assured and boldly go to casting, tell me directly if you have any difficulties."

Xu Zhexia came down the stairs and called Xue Yao a rare sister, you must know that before, when she just married Jiang Yanzhi, let alone call her sister, she rarely even called her name.

Xue Yao looked at Xu Zhexia, who was a little anxious, and didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only cough lightly twice and pointed at Jiang Yanzhi, who was sitting beside her, with her finger.

Sure enough, now the man's face is full of gloom, and he doesn't look very good.

Xu Zhexia turned his head to look at Shangjiang Yanzhi, smiled a little embarrassedly, and then explained in a low voice.
