A great director who grew up happily

After class that day, Wang Yidi came out of the teaching building with his textbooks as usual and headed for the nanny car that had been waiting for a long time.

She walked hurriedly, looking as if she was in a hurry to get on the road.

After walking all the way to the parking area and seeing the familiar car parked in the old place, Wang Yidi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down her pace. It was no wonder that she was nervous. It was mainly because with her current fame, she simply could not stay in the school for too long.

Ordinary universities are open, and it is easy for outsiders to sneak in. They have no idea whether there are any eyes watching around.

Wang Yidi opened the car door and shouted in surprise, "Mom, why are you here?"

She hadn't seen Wang Qing for a month and a half since she returned to Beijing before the Spring Festival. When she suddenly saw her, she was immediately filled with joy. She couldn't wait to rush into the car and throw herself on Wang Qing.

"If I hadn't been sitting on my seat, I would have been knocked over by you."

Wang Qing complained about Wang Yidi's clumsy behavior, but she actually missed her daughter very much, otherwise she wouldn't have flown all the way to visit her.

"Didi, please close the car door so that your sister Lan can drive us back."

Wang Yidi obediently did as he was told and asked curiously, "Did you come here just to see me?"

"Of course, you're my biological daughter. I don't care who you look at. And you're such a fool. You originally agreed to stay in Beijing for the New Year and then go back home, but school has already started. Even Jinnian has been away for a long time, and you still have no plans to go back. How can you even plan to finish a semester?"

Listening to his mother's familiar nagging, Wang Yidi did not feel annoyed, but felt particularly at ease.

She snuggled up to Wang Qing's shoulder.

"I've been a little busy lately, so I haven't had time to go home. But you can ask Sister Lan. We were talking about going back yesterday. If you hadn't come over today, I might have been home by evening."

"Don't ask Sister Lan to help you cover up your lies. We talked for a long time before you left get out of class."

Wen Chenglan, who was driving in the front seat, just smiled and did not get involved in the conversation between the mother and daughter. She just asked about the specific location.

"Aunt, where are we going? Should we go back to the west or the east?"

"Let's go back to the east first. I haven't seen Teacher Song and the others for a long time. Let's chat with them." Wang Qing said. She is a person who can't sit still and loves to be in a lively environment.

At that time in Shuxiang Yayuan, she knew many parents, but now times have passed and she doesn’t know how many old acquaintances are still in Shuxiang Yayuan.

"It just so happens that I still need to go to the store. I haven't been there since the store changed managers."

Wang Yidi has been staying at Chen Jinnian's parents' house recently, and has entrusted all the store affairs to Qiao Yingzi, or to be more precise, Qiao Weidong.

She only knew that the store manager was replaced by a young couple who used to work in the store and now took over the pet shop business.

"Oh, what's so interesting about a small business? The most important thing for you now is the crew. You have to start planning. You can't wait for Jinnian to bring everything to you."

Chen Jinnian was with Wang Qing, so he naturally knew that his daughter wanted to be a director.

"Oh, don't rush me." Wang Yidi said pitifully.

"Ever since the news spread that I was going to make a movie, everyone has been looking for me to get information. Some want roles, some want to invest money, but I really don't know anything right now."

Wang Yidi only knew that a film would be made based on Yu Hua's novel of the same name, but she had no idea which version of the film would be made or whether there would be any adaptation.

"Don't be so ungrateful when you're in trouble. People are rushing to invest, and you think they trust you. They are going for Jinnian. If you are a nobody, who will care about you?"

Wang Qing said, rolling her eyes.

When Wang Qing first heard the news from Chen Jinnian, she was actually against it. She felt it was pure nonsense. How could her daughter suddenly change careers and become a director?

However, she reluctantly agreed because Chen Jinnian was willing to help and Wang Dazhuang was willing to support his daughter's attempt.

"Of course I know, so I dare not promise anything. Even when my classmates approached me about roles, I declined them by saying that I had no plans for them at the moment."

"I'm glad you know." Wang Qing replied. She had a vague feeling that this co-directed film would still have to rely on Chen Jinnian to finish it in the end.

……

After arriving at Shuxiang Yayuan, the mother and daughter first went to see the pet shop. The business was very stable and there was no problem of shortage of staff due to changes in store managers and layoffs.

Wang Yidi can now say with certainty that the pet shop did not make any money last year. There was indeed a big problem with personnel management, which was caused by serious overstaffing.

"Hey, aren't you Lao... Wang Qing? You're back from the south."

Song Qian, who came out of the store to buy cat food, spotted Wang Qing at a glance and almost said the other party's nickname "Nagging King".

"Yes, Mr. Song, long time no see. You are not at work today."

"I just finished my afternoon class and came here to buy cat food." Song Qian pointed at the things in her hand, "It's a good coincidence that we met. Let's go home and sit down."

Wang Qing, of course, was more than happy to do so. She dragged the helpless Wang Yidi and walked towards the residential area together.

As a teacher, Song Qian is also quite talkative. She and Wang Qing are a perfect match. They talk so much that it is impossible to get anything in their mouths.

Wang Yidi followed beside him and felt that he was quite taciturn.

Until Song Qian opened the door, the two were immersed in their conversation and didn't notice the scene in the room.

Wang Yidi was the first to notice something unusual. He quickly pushed his mother's arm and pointed inside the door.

I saw a person lying on the floor of the living room, with his butt sticking out, looking for something in the gap between the sofas. He was holding a mobile phone in his hand to light up the situation. He looked so focused that he didn't even notice the door was opened.

Wang Qing was stunned and looked at Song Qian with a strange look, wondering when the other party had a second spring in life and actually found a boyfriend again.

Before she could ask, Song Qian shouted with a gloomy face: "Qiao Weidong, who let you in?"

The man lying on the ground shuddered reflexively, quickly stood up, and adjusted his crooked glasses. It was indeed Qiao Weidong himself.

Wang Qing and Wang Yidi looked at each other in tacit understanding and sighed at the same time.

"As expected of the original couple, you can tell who they are by looking at their butts."

Song Qian angrily walked over and tried to kick Qiao Weidong out, but Qiao Weidong hurriedly explained, "I forgot to feed the cats at noon, and just now I came in to feed them, but I couldn't find where the other one went."

"I just told you such a small thing, and you forgot it." Song Qian became even angrier.

"Hey, don't push me. Let me look for it." Qiao Weidong tried hard to stay. Then he noticed Wang Yidi and Wang Qing standing at the door. He immediately had an idea. He grabbed Song Qian's arm and whispered, "Song Qian, Song Qian, there are guests coming. Please give me some face."

Song Qian thought about it, then swung her arm with force, snorted coldly, and turned to greet the guests.
