Chapter 228: Practicing with Jet Li
Perhaps because she has been in a superior position since she entered the Chen family, the third son of the Chen family and the old man Chen and his wife are both intimidated by their eldest daughter-in-law.

When he heard her speak, the third son of the Chen family immediately shrank his head.

"Sister-in-law, I just said that. I didn't ask you to pay for it."

"Then your second brother can pay? His family is in Beijing, one is studying and the other is working as a temporary worker. It was not easy for your second brother to get a permanent job, but he hasn't received his salary yet. Why don't you let him build a house for you first?"

"Mom and Dad, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you can't always let us help the third child. You didn't handle the house issue properly before. I was not at home at the time. If I were at home, I would definitely stop you."

Zhou Lili made an impolite accusation at this time, and her words were extremely biased towards Chen Aiguo and others.

Looking at Zhou Lili's stern and righteous expression, Li Xiaojun suddenly remembered something Li Changhe had said to him.

Good people are often bullied, and good horses are often ridden. When you have strength, you will be surrounded by good people.

I've never seen my sister-in-law be so opinionated before.

But there is no doubt that with Zhou Lili's clear stand on the side of Li Xiaojun and the others, the old man Chen and his wife behaved well at the dinner table and stopped making trouble.

Now that the two most capable sons in the family have united as one, what else can they say?
Li Xiaojun enjoyed the meal very much. All in all, it could be said that this was the most sumptuous meal she had ever had in the village.

Of course, she didn't know whether other people enjoyed the food or not.

After finishing the meal, the family left without staying long.

Chen Aidang and his friends were going back to the forest farm, which was a long way off.

On the way back, Chen Aidang gave Zhou Lili a thumbs up.

"Lily, you are really good at talking. I was just thinking about how to persuade the second brother and the others."

"I didn't expect that you were more resourceful. You helped them reprimand our parents and the third brother. The second brother's family should not blame us anymore."

Chen Aidang felt that his wife must have done this to complete his parents' mission and ease the relationship with the second son's family.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Lili sneered.

"Chen Aidang, you are a fool, do you think I am speaking for your Chen family?"

"I'm telling you, I'm just speaking for Li Xiaojun."

"Don't you think about what else your Chen family can do now? Your parents are old, and raising a third child is not a proper thing at all."

"In the past, Chen Aiguo and his family worked like slaves for them at home, so he didn't bother us."

"When your second brother and his family go to the capital, think about who you can count on when your parents get into trouble? Do you really count on that useless third brother?"

"It will all come back to haunt you, and you still think it's a good thing?"

"I'm taking this opportunity today to tell your parents not to expect us to support them in their old age like the second son's family did before."

"We don't even have enough money to spend on ourselves, and we're helping him build a house and find a wife?"

"Of course, I'll also praise the second brother's family. After all, they are a couple now. One is a worker in Beijing, and the other is a college student. After graduation, he will be an official in Beijing."

"Although it's far away from us, we never know when it might be needed."

"He is a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, not to mention that his family has a high-ranking official in the capital."

"I'm telling you, from now on, send more of those wild game that you use to honor your parents to the capital, so that you, as a brother, can have some face."

"If his father-in-law's family eats you, they might help you if you have any problems in the future because of your brother's face."

"Especially his brother-in-law, who gave him a watch worth thousands of dollars just because he wanted to. Do you know what this means?"

"There's no difference between giving it to your parents and giving it to your brother, so why not give it to the one that's useful?"

"Think about it carefully with your own brain!"

Zhou Lili lectured Chen Aidang.

Chen Aidang reacted immediately.

Yes, after the second brother’s family left, his parents would have to trouble him.

My wife is the one who thinks long-term!

On the other side, Chen Aiguo, who had returned home, was also sighing.

"I really didn't expect that my sister-in-law would speak for us today."

"Then have you ever thought about why she didn't speak up for us before?"

"You went to their house and helped them do so much work before, like a coolie during festivals. Why didn't she speak up for you then?"

Li Xiaojun said with a smile.

Chen Aiguo's smile froze when he heard this, and then he said awkwardly: "I know, people are realistic!"

"Okay, we've already sunbathed and shown off today. I don't think Mom and Dad will be able to sleep tonight."

"Let's finish the certification process tomorrow and hurry back to the capital!"

"Ah? Xiaojun, you're in such a hurry, why don't you stay at home for two more days?"

Chen Aiguo was a little puzzled. She clearly wanted to come back to show off, so why was she in such a hurry to leave?

"Stay a few more days and wait for someone to spot you?"

"Now everyone in the village knows that the watch you're wearing is very valuable. In a few days, everyone in the surrounding area will know about it. Can you guarantee that no one will come to our house to envy us?"

"What would you do if someone really climbed over the wall in the middle of the night?"

Li Xiaojun naturally understood the principle of not showing off one's wealth, but as the saying goes, after being suppressed for so many years, she just wanted to show off.

Otherwise, she won't be able to get over the anger in her heart!
Of course, now that I have let out this anger, I must leave quickly.

"That's right, I'll do it tomorrow, and then we'll leave!"

Chen Aiguo nodded immediately.

At the same time, in the dense forest outside Beijing, Zhu Lin was sitting behind the camera, shooting a series of shots.

Ling Zifeng asked Zhu Lin and Tian Zhuangzhuang to join the crew, which was really a chance for them to get started. As long as it was not an important plot or a transitional scene, he would let Zhu Lin and others take turns to take the camera and experience how to be a director on the set.

At the same time, be familiar with all the affairs in the crew.

It can be said that the filming over the past half month has helped them grow a lot and turned the knowledge they learned in school into real experience.

On the other side of the crew, Li Changhe was fighting with someone.

The person who fought with him was none other than Jet Li.

Because Zhu Lin was filming an unimportant transitional plot, there was no role for Jet Li.

During this period, under the dual guidance of Jiang Yuan and Yu Hai, Li Changhe also became quite proficient in Praying Mantis Boxing.

Everyone in the entire crew knew that their screenwriter loved shooting guns and practicing martial arts, but he almost never did any serious work.

Jiang Yuan and Yu Hai in the crew are too skilled in martial arts, and Li Changhe cannot always force them to practice against each other.

On the contrary, Jet Li is just the right match. He is younger than Li Changhe and has not gained as much strength, but his moves are very complicated, making him a perfect opponent for Li Changhe.

Moreover, Yu Hai himself also has to supervise him in practicing martial arts.

boom!
The two men fought in the woods. Li Changhe knocked back Jet Li's kick with a punch, and then the two men stopped.

"I won't fight anymore, Brother Changhe, my feet are numb!"

Jet Li rubbed his legs at this time. Although Li Changhe usually held back on his strength, sometimes when the fight got intense, he would inevitably increase his strength.

What happened just now was a bit too much for him to bear.

"Okay, let's stop here for today!"

Li Changhe then stood up and took Jet Li back to the crew.

He didn't have any thoughts about Jet Li, nor did he think of recruiting him as an actor.

I asked him to practice with me purely because it was the right time.

Moreover, during this period of contact, he also discovered that this kid was good at kung fu and could endure hardships, but the only thing, how to put it, was that he loved to play tricks.

You can't say that Jet Li is not smart. In fact, he is a very perceptive and studious person, otherwise he would not have been successful in the future.

However, due to the limitations of his knowledge and education level, Jet Li's intelligence does not allow him to see the essence of things, but only follows the pursuit of interests, so many times, he appears insincere.

Perhaps this is the reason why his reputation will collapse in the future.

This is also the reason why Li Changhe did not think of winning him over at this time. For such a person, it is only necessary to talk about interests, and there is no need to talk too much about emotions.

Because when his feelings and interests conflict, he will definitely put his interests first.

When the two returned to the crew, Zhu Lin had just finished filming the scene in front of her.

"Okay, that's all for today, let's go down the mountain!"

After coming down the mountain, Li Changhe, Zhu Lin, Chen Kaige and others came to Ling Zifeng's residence.

"Director Ling, let's go then!"

Today is their last day with the group, and Zhu Lin and the others will not come tomorrow.

After all, you can’t spend all your summer vacation on the crew, and school will start in a few days.

"Let's go, go back and study hard, I'll be waiting for you at the Beijing Film Studio!"

Ling Zifeng said with a smile.

Afterwards, Tian Zhuangzhuang and Chen Kaige took Li Changhe's taxi back to Beijing.

Li Changhe also invited them to dinner.

After the meal, the four of them dispersed, and Li Changhe and Zhu Lin returned to their house in the Overseas Chinese Apartment.

When they arrived at the door, Zhu Lin opened it with the key, and Li Changhe opened the newspaper box next to the door and took out the newspaper inside.

"Hmm? It looks like there's another letter!"

Li Changhe was a little surprised to see a letter in the mailbox.

"I wrote it for you!"

Li Changhe looked at the recipient on the letter and handed it to Zhu Lin with a smile.

After Zhu Lin opened the door, she took a curious look at the mailing address on it.

"This was sent by Xiaoxue from the crew."

The sender's name on the lower right corner of the envelope was Gong Xue.

After entering the house, Zhu Lin tore open the envelope and read it carefully.

After reading it, I shook my head.

"what happened?"

Li Changhe just took out a watermelon from the refrigerator, cut it open and brought it up.

"Nothing. Xiaoxue was complaining about her role in the letter."

"She had to play the role of a water carrier, so in order to practice carrying water, she had to carry a shoulder pole and a bucket every day to practice carrying water. It was not an easy job!"

Zhu Lin could feel the tiredness just by thinking about it. For a delicate girl, carrying a shoulder pole to fetch water, that was really suffering!

Li Changhe also smiled when he heard this.

"If you choose this industry, you have to suffer this."

"Think about it, it's not easy for you to live in the deep mountains and forests for more than a month."

Being on a film set is never an easy life.
