Chapter 179 The Movie Emperor's White Moonlight Flower 28
Minglan Village is located in a remote area, and it takes three hours to drive to the town. Villagers rarely go to the town unless they need to buy something necessary.
In addition, it is the season when rice matures. If we don’t harvest it early, it will be terrible if we encounter rain like last year.
So, the villagers arranged for Yang Ziying to live in the home of an old lady in the village first.
The old lady's children all go to work in other places and only come back once a year during the Spring Festival, so she lives here alone.
When Yang Ziying was being taken away, as soon as she approached, she heard a burst of noisy children's voices.
The villagers explained to her with a smile.
The old woman was very kind and gentle, and there were always all kinds of beautiful candies in her house, so the children in the village were happy to come here to play with her.
The gate to the yard was not closed, and the children inside soon noticed them, but continued their stone-kicking game without interest.
Not far away, an old lady in dark blue floral clothes happened to be sitting on a chair. She had a pair of reading glasses on her wrinkled face. She was holding cloth in her hand and threading the needle with great concentration.
Noticing them, the old lady raised her head and looked over here.
The uncle walked over first and said a few words of greeting before getting down to business:
"Grandma, this is what happened. A little girl came to our village. She didn't have anything with her. I guess she met some bad guys. And she can't even talk."
"We've been thinking about taking her to town to seek help from the police after the busy farming season is over. Can you arrange for her to stay with you for a few days?"
The old lady listened attentively, nodded, and smiled kindly, "Of course."
She walked past the uncle and walked towards Yang Ziying, looking her up and down. "This little girl is so pitiful. What's her name?"
After saying that, she slapped her head and said, "Look at my memory. I forgot you can't speak."
Yang Ziying smiled for the first time, glanced around, quickly picked up a stone, and slowly wrote two words on the concrete floor.
"Is this your name?" The old man and the old woman looked at the neatly written characters on the ground, "How do you pronounce this?"
The children nearby gathered around, and one of the boys raised his hand and shouted:
"I know, I know! The two words are 'Xiaoying', the firefly!"
As soon as the words fell, another girl immediately refuted:
"No, no, you are wrong! The word she wrote is 'Ying', with a 'Yu' (a jade) underneath, not a 'Ying' (a firefly)."
Hearing their arguing, the old lady and the uncle burst into laughter.
"Xiaoying?" The old lady smiled at the quiet Yang Ziying, "From now on, you can live with me, an old woman like me. After the rice is harvested, they will take you to find your family."
Looking into her eyes, Yang Ziying was in a trance for a moment, then nodded.
In this way, Yang Ziying, penniless, settled down in this remote village. The old man was the only one in his home, so he was very happy about Yang Ziying's arrival.
She cleaned up her daughter's room which had been empty for a long time, covered it with soft quilts and pillows, told her some things, and let her wash up and have a good rest.
Because most of the young and middle-aged people in the village went out to work, only some elderly people and children were left. Yang Ziying was a little uncomfortable at first, but soon adapted to it and helped the elderly with weeding, planting vegetables and other farm work.
The life here is peaceful and harmonious, and the care and love from the old lady who looks just like her grandmother brings comfort to Yang Ziying's tormented heart.
Here, she felt like she was back in her childhood.
A childlike, leisurely and carefree atmosphere.
The busy farming season was long and busy. Sometimes a family in the village that was short of staff would send their children to the old lady to be taken care of. A family that had a good harvest would also send some vegetables such as corn and winter melon. As time went by, everyone in the village knew that there was a Yang Ziying in the old lady's family.
Yang Ziying was originally born in the countryside, and returning to the countryside was like a duck in water.
She was grateful for the villagers' shelter and would help them harvest rice. Occasionally, she would grill fish with the villagers.
When I have free time during the day, I teach the children in the village to draw, and have them compete in folding paper airplanes, skipping rubber ropes and playing shuttlecock. I have a lot of fun doing that.
At night, I dine with grandma under the stars, listen to the frog sonata while lying on a cool bamboo chair, and finally turn off the lights in the orange-hued cottage, looking forward to tomorrow in the scent of cotton basking in the sun.
The joy of time is always extremely short. On a hot afternoon with cicadas chirping, grandma sat under a tree as usual to enjoy the cool and do needlework.
There was a steady and powerful knock on the door outside the yard.
The old lady looked up and saw three or four policemen in uniform standing outside the door, asking seriously:
"Hello, does Yang Ziying live here?"
_
Shi Qing and his crew have been in Minglan Village for two weeks, and the filming of the movie "Rose" has been almost completed, so everyone is planning to leave.
However, heavy rain began to fall in Minglan Village.
For this reason, the director and others decided to wait until the rain stopped before leaving.
However, the rain lasted for a whole day and night, and everyone was forced to stay where they were.
"What's wrong? You don't look happy?" Lu Shiyu walked over with a cup of hot tea.
Shi Qing leaned against the window on the second floor, folded his arms and looked into the distance, "Maybe he can't bear to leave."
"Reluctant? I don't." Lu Shiyu also imitated her posture and complained, "This place is too remote. There is no signal when it is hot, and there is no signal when it rains. I really don't know why the director chose this place."
Shi Qing lowered his head and smiled for a moment, "To be honest, I also lived in a small village when I was a child. Our elementary school was right in the center of the village, so it was very convenient to go back and forth."
"There were no mobile phones at that time. After school, I would play skipping rubber rope with my friends. I was the best at it at that time. Every time, the people who were in a team with me basically won easily."
"The most difficult part at that time was the height to the neck. According to today's standards, that height is about this high." When she was excited, she couldn't help but gesture up and down.
"I can't even imagine how I was able to jump so high back then. If I were to jump now, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to reach even half of that."
Lu Shiyu rubbed the warm cup and teased her:
"No wonder you had so much fun playing with the kids during filming. I guess you were playing games at public expense."
Shi Qing's eyes were full of smiles, and her tone was nostalgic:
"There were no mobile phones or televisions back then, and it would always get dark early when I played with my friends. If we had a lot of fun outside, sometimes we wouldn't dare go home alone."
At that time, looking at the dim sky and the hazy white lights, I would feel an extreme sense of loneliness in my heart, as if I was supposed to be outside the world.
"Are you afraid to go home because you're afraid of being scolded by adults?" Lu Shiyu asked curiously.
Shi Qing's voice was cool yet moving, and the tone and rhythm of his voice were like that of a late-night radio host, evoking soft memories in people's hearts.
"That's not the case. I was afraid to go home mainly because there was no one at home and I was scared to be alone. My grandmother went out to work in the fields during the day and always came back very late, so every time when it got dark and my friends went home, I would feel very lost."
"What about the rest of your family?"
"There are only me and my grandma at home." Shi Qing's eyes softened. "I was abandoned outside when I was very young. My grandma brought me back and raised me."
Lu Shiyu was surprised to suddenly find out about other people's privacy. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Shi Qing shook his head and said with relief:
"It doesn't matter. Although I have not had parents since I was born, my grandma loves me very much. In my eyes, her love is as great as that of any parent in the world."
Lu Shiyu looked into her bright eyes and slowly took a sip of tea.
It's cold already.
"Sometimes, I really can't tell you and Yang Ziying apart. Are you playing her, or is she playing you?"
Shi Qing shrugged and smiled helplessly, "Who knows, maybe we are the same person, just one is outside the play and the other is inside the play."
The tea becomes bitter when it gets cold. The sound of rain continues in my ears, and my exposed skin gets covered with cold goose bumps. Even my heart feels inexplicably sour.
Lu Shiyu rubbed her arms. "If you are the same person, then what about me? Am I Lu Shiyu or Chen Jinxiu?"
At the end of the story, Chen Jinxiu and Yang Ziying had broken up.
Shi Qing smiled mischievously and said, "Of course you are Lu Shiyu, and I am just Ye Qing."
At this moment, Shi Qing's cell phone rang.
She took it out and saw that it was Zhu Ying.
As soon as the call was connected, Zhu Yingwen was furious, "Ye Qing, when will you be back?"
Shi Qing glanced at the dark sky and said, "I'm not sure. It's raining heavily here. We'll be delayed for a day or two at the latest."
Zhu Ying was silent for a moment, "Have you seen the trending searches on Weibo?"
"No, is there something wrong?"
Zhu Ying told her the whole story accurately and concisely.
Two weeks had passed since the scandal, and Zhu Ying's first step was to contact Shi Qing to find out the whole story, but the call was not connected.
The company’s public relations team also issued a notice at the first opportunity, which basically stated that no one would be allowed to slander its artists and that the rumormongers would be held accountable.
Netizens are accustomed to this kind of announcement, so naturally they don’t believe it. What’s more, they didn’t provide evidence in the first place, and the protagonist Shi Qing did not appear in the video.
Netizens speculated that she was too embarrassed to face people, or that she was taken away for investigation by relevant personnel. In short, there are many different opinions.
While Zhu Ying was trying her best to search for evidence, the company's senior leaders advised her not to bother with the matter because the mastermind behind the incident had a complicated background.
Moreover, Shi Qing is just an artist who has just gained some popularity, so even if we give up on her, we won’t lose much value.
When Zhu Ying heard the news, he felt a chill in his heart.
Although Zhu Ying hadn't been with Shi Qing for a long time, she liked this little girl from the first time they met. She was low-key and well-behaved, and never caused any trouble for her. Among many artists, she was the least troublesome one.
Zhu Ying couldn't bear to abandon her like this, so she used her own connections to find out the truth.
It was during this process that she was contacted by personnel from the National Investigation Department.
Zhu Ying easily found out the filth that had been buried in the dust, about the little girl's miserable high school life.
School bullying.
But these four words sentenced her to a miserable and painful youth and a lifetime of regret.
"Sister Ying? Sister Ying? Can you hear me?" The voice on the other end of the phone was intermittent, accompanied by the rustling sound of electric current.
Zhu Ying came back to her senses from the gray and yellow memories, her voice choked with sobs and pain, "I'm here, go ahead."
Shi Qing's voice was light and steady, "So no matter how the company plans to deal with it, I will definitely cooperate with it to the fullest."
"We don't know the specific progress of this matter, but to be on the safe side, you can record a clarification video first and see if you can send it over to appease the public first."
"I see. I'll record it and send it to you later."
"Well, be careful." Zhu Ying paused and added, "Don't be afraid, you are not alone this time."
"I'm not afraid. There's a saying that goes, justice may be late, but it will never be absent. Those who hurt me will eventually be punished."
Shi Qing chuckled and looked up at the lights of thousands of homes in the rain.
"After all, we have the country behind us."

At this time, online rumors are still continuing to ferment.
Various social software such as Weibo, Bilibili, Baidu Books, and Baidu Audio are full of videos and posts about Hei Shiqing.
Some people specifically take screenshots of the TV series she starred in and use them as emoticons to mock her, maliciously edit them, and post all kinds of unfounded stories and photos, which makes people sigh at their "keen observation".
In ancient times, this ability would have made him a high-ranking official.
Ji Wen Zhong had previously been frequently leaked by passers-by about his daily photos of the two traveling together, and now a large number of fans have gone to his Weibo to curse him.
When many celebrity directors kept silent about this for fear of getting into trouble, Ji Wen Zhong stood up resolutely.
[Formally introduce, this is my girlfriend, I trust her, and she trusts me too. @葉葉上猫]
Ji Wen Zhong responded positively to their relationship for the first time, but it was at the height of the storm, revealing his wholehearted trust in Shi Qing.
If it were normal times, netizens might even send joking blessings.
But at this time, they had already been indoctrinated with the idea that Shi Qing was a loose woman, and they voluntarily or unconsciously followed the waves, not knowing whether the waves were hitting the land or retreating into the abyss.
They hid in the huge waves, swaying with them up and down. When they heard some ugly things about others, they could not wait to bring them out and show off in front of everyone.
Because doing so will make those who oppose them appear to be brainless and idiotic, and thus give rise to an inexplicable sense of superiority that they are the only one sober while everyone else is drunk.
Just like the tyrants of feudal dynasties, they would immediately ruthlessly whip and insult anyone who expressed the slightest opposition to them.
[Ye Qing is black all her life]: "Ji Wen Zhong, you are smart all your life but you are foolish for a moment. Why did you choose Ye Qing when you could choose anyone else?"
[One-night stand]: "Just look at my name and you'll know what kind of person she is."
[Ye Qing Yisheng Hei]: "No wonder I always feel weird when I say her name. I thought it was my illusion. Now I understand everything."
[Ye Qing Get Out of the Entertainment Circle]: "After debuting for so long, she always plays the supporting actress who competes with the heroine for the heroine, as disgusting as a white lotus. Hua Nongying was praised by fans for being so good, but in the end she still surrendered to the enemy. I guess she felt wronged because the screenwriter forced her to leave the line."
[Xiao Ku]: "She was stealing the show on the set, ignoring everyone and just chatting and laughing with the director. She just likes married women. [Picture]"
[mkokj]: "It shattered my three perspectives. Being her fan is the biggest stain in my life."
[Soft clay craft]: "Who on earth likes this kind of person? I feel sick just by looking at her face. That smile, she is so flirtatious but she pretends to be innocent, yue"
[Going to work]: "It is said that she dropped out of high school. No wonder she has no moral bottom line. She must have opened her eyes after cutting her butt with a knife. Also, her fans said that she went to film a movie. I guess she was framed and imprisoned, so she hasn't shown up for so long."
[Come and hit me]: "There are still people spreading rumors about the end of the country. It's really funny. It's really cheap to talk now. You can tell from her face that she is a little gangster. She bullied and robbed her classmates, and forced her grandmother to death. Now I don't know how many sponsors she has been supported by. She is so dirty."
[Slime]: "Just looking at her through the screen, I feel she has a masculine vibe. [Disinfect your phoneJPG]"
After scrolling for a while, An Ye's anger completely erupted, and she started typing.
