The crew organizes to drive the snake away, and Zhou You happens to pick loquats for Grandma Gong.

It takes at least an hour to get to the town from Siping Village. In order to catch up with the morning market, Zhou You got out of bed at four o'clock and hurried to Gong Shun's home.

"You came so early, Xiao Zhou? Have you eaten yet?" It was agreed in advance last night, and Gong Shun also woke up early, readying his basket and ladder to wait around in the yard.

"not yet."

"Come in, come in, I've cooked glutinous glutinous rice balls, you'll have time to pick them after you finish eating."

Gong Shun called Zhou You into the house, ignored his mouthful of "grandma is enough", scooped up a bowl full of fermented glutinous glutinous rice balls for him, with two poached eggs in it.

It was the first time that Zhou You felt the care and love from his grandma. After eating a big bowl of glutinous rice balls, he felt a little overwhelmed, but fortunately, all he had to do next was physical work.

Holding the flashlight, he climbed up the tree neatly. Zhou You clamped the flashlight in his neck, broke off the bunches of loquats on the tree, and put them in the back basket.

Gong Shun picked the low loquats under the tree, and when Zhou You came down, he unloaded the basket with him.

Zhou You estimated that the three trees were as tall as two floors, and after picking all of them, there would still be more than 200 catties of loquats. No matter how experienced he was in setting up a stall, it would be difficult to sell all the loquats in a town with a small population.

After picking forty or fifty catties of loquats, the two came to the main road to see who was going to the town, so they could pick them up along the way.

They finally stopped a truck. The driver was a middle-aged man who was somewhat distantly related to Gong Shun.

Zhou You and Gong Shun just sat in the cargo box of the truck and came all the way to the town.

The town goes to the market every three and eight times a month, and Gong Shun sometimes comes up to buy something, but he hasn't been a seller for a long time.

However, Zhou You's face should be thinner than hers. Gong Shun didn't plan to rely on the juniors to sell fruit, so when the selection was made and the stall was ready, she was about to sell it. Take out a plastic woven bag and spread it on the ground, and place the loquats neatly.

It is rare for a young vendor to set up a stall in the town, let alone such a beautiful young vendor.

The appearance of Zhou You immediately attracted the attention of many people on the street. As long as Zhou You saw that passers-by were interested, he would invite them to buy loquats.

The loquats are freshly picked, and the taste is really good. In addition, Zhou You's mouth is sweet and eloquent, so the loquats sell out very fast.

Whenever a customer buys loquats, Zhou You will quickly pack a bag of fruit, take out the old scale and weigh it, and give away a few more after weighing, showing a professional temperament.

Gong Shun was in charge of collecting money and changing money, and heard passers-by praise countless times, "Your grandson is really capable" and "The old man is really blessed."

After two hours, all the loquats were sold out, Gong Shun counted the change in his hand, and gave more than half of it to Zhou You.

Zhou You was flattered, and refused: "Grandma! You don't need so much!"

The loquats were bought for eight yuan a catty, and the forty or fifty loquats were only sold for a total of three hundred yuan.

Gong Shun forcefully handed him the money, "Take it, Xiao Zhou, if it wasn't for your help, my fruit would have rotted on the tree... In the past, my daughter also accompanied me to the market to sell vegetables, and she also got up early in the morning Pull vegetables with me, and then help me pull people to buy vegetables... It's been a long, long time since no one has accompanied me, an old guy."

Gong Shun has been widowed for many years, his daughter has not been around for many years, and the old man lives alone. It would be a lie to say that he is not lonely.

Thinking of this, the old man had tears in his eyes, held Zhou You with his rough palm, and patted him twice: "So thank you, Xiao Zhou."

……

There are many left-behind elderly people in Siping Village, and Gong Shun is just one of them.

Seeing that Grandma Gong was aroused with sad emotions, Zhou You took Gong Shun for a stroll around the town for a while, and after coaxing the old man into a happy smile, he slowly returned to the village by car.

After bidding farewell to the old man Gong Shun, Zhou You walked to his residence, turned a corner in the middle of the walk, went to the place in the village with the best signal, and made a call.

A few seconds after the mechanical sound, the phone on the other side was connected.

"Brother Zhou You!"

Hearing Zhou Su's excited voice from the phone, Zhou You smiled: "How do you know it's me?"

"Sister Zhou Qing set an exclusive ringtone for you, so that I know it's you when I hear it," Zhou Su said coquettishly, "You haven't called back for a long time."

Zhou You blamed himself: "I'm sorry, I'm too busy working part-time."

"Yeah! We know." Zhou Su didn't mean to blame him, and turned to share the interesting daily life recently.

For example, his duck eggs hatched ten ducks. Zhou Qing is learning to make tofu recently, so his family and the ducks have been eating tofu for ten days...

Zhou You quietly listened to him say a long series of words, and when Zhou Su finished speaking, Zhou You asked, "How is the teacher?"

Zhou Su replied, "I'm sleeping."

While the two brothers were talking, Yang Daoyuan, who was resting in the bedroom, heard the movement, "Did Zhou You call?"

"Yes." Zhou Su replied, and walked to Yang Daoyuan's room.

There was a jingling sound from the other end of the phone, Zhou Su seemed to have kicked something like a pot, and let out a soft cry.

"Be careful."

"Slow down."

Zhou You and Yang Daoyuan reminded at the same time.

"En." Zhou Su responded, walking forward cautiously.

Zhou Su is blind.

"Hey, hey, Zhou You, did you miss us?" Yang Daoyuan answered the phone with this rambling tone.

Zhou You didn't say anything disgusting like before, but simply replied: "I think about it."

"..." Yang Daoyuan couldn't handle it with such a direct answer, "You... um... how have you been recently?"

Zhou You briefly talked about his part-time job in the film and television city.

Zhou Su listened enthusiastically from the side: "Is Brother Zhou You an actor? Then can we see you on TV?"

Yang Daoyuan smiled, rubbed his head, and told Zhou You: "It's not bad to be an actor, but you must be cautious when making friends, and beware of some people with ulterior motives..."

As soon as he mentioned this, Zhou You immediately thought of the video that Zhong Hao had shown him.

"Hmm!" He will definitely protect himself.

Most of the time, Zhou You was speaking, while Yang Daoyuan and Zhou Su were listening.

The days of part-time work must be hard, Yang Daoyuan knew it well, and he sighed softly when he heard that Zhou You only reported good news but not bad news.

Traveling around this child has always been a peace of mind.

Yang Daoyuan is not a local.

More than 20 years ago, Yang Daoyuan, whose lover passed away, resolutely came to this small mountain village in the southwest to serve as a teacher. Since then, he has taken root in this place and adopted three children.

The eldest brother Zhou You's parents died of natural disasters.

Zhou Qing, who was three years younger than him, was a girl who was wrapped in swaddling clothes and placed at the door of Yang Daoyuan's house one morning.

But Zhou Su was abandoned by the ditch because of blindness, and Yang Daoyuan picked him up.

Yang Daoyuan has no children himself, and Zhou Qing and Zhou Su's name is taken from Zhou You's name.The three brothers and sisters are all strong-willed children, and they are willing to learn from Yang Daoyuan. Among them, Zhou You is the smartest.

Out of his love for talent, Yang Daoyuan taught him all he could, so that the child's talent would not be buried.

However, in March this year, he had a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and fell down on the road. He was then sent to the county town for treatment by his fellow villagers, and later transferred to the city for treatment.

During these years of supporting education, Yang Daoyuan not only used up his savings, but also borrowed a lot of money from his old friends. He was alone and couldn't even afford the surgery fee.

Fortunately, he has accumulated good deeds for many years, and the villagers are grateful for Yang Daoyuan's teaching to the children in the mountains. One family paid [-] yuan, and the other family paid [-] yuan. Finally, they paid for the surgery.

However, after surgery is the time to burn money.

After the operation, Yang Daoyuan was admitted to the intensive care unit, spending more than a thousand a day. Zhou You, who was in the third year of high school, took more than a month off to take care of the comatose Yang Daoyuan and at the same time borrow money everywhere, and pulled Yang Daoyuan away from the ghost gate before the money ran out. return.

Because of the sequelae of the operation, Yang Daoyuan became half paralyzed, unable to move his left hand and left foot. He is still recuperating until now, and even doing some simple labor is laborious.

The only labor force in the family collapsed. Facing hundreds of thousands of debts, as well as Yang Daoyuan's medical expenses and the living expenses of his younger siblings, Zhou You took his leave indefinitely. With Yang Daoyuan's contact, Zhou You came to his hometown S city ​​to work.

Thinking of this, Yang Daoyuan felt melancholy, "Zhou You."

Zhou You paused, "Huh?"

"Thanks a lot."

"..."

After a brief silence, Zhou You sniffed, "It's nothing hard."

"Well," Yang Daoyuan changed the subject, and urged urgently, "By the way, Zhou Qing is not here at the moment. Remember to call back at one o'clock in the evening. She misses you, but she just hides it in her heart."

"Okay, I will." Zhou You smiled and hung up the phone, feeling a lot more relaxed, and walked back.

Passing by a corner of the yard, a staff member rushed over in a panic and collided with him.

Zhou You was taken aback, and after standing firmly, he supported the other party: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" The staff hurriedly apologized and continued to run forward.

Seeing his flustered expression, Zhou You feared that something had happened again.

He continued to walk for a while, and sure enough, he saw a group of crew members gathered around a courtyard.

……

After a whole morning of hard work by the masters in the village, many snakes in the field were successfully caught.

Snakes are usually caught by the locals and taken home to chop them up and make them into appetizers.

But the crew felt that it was unlucky to kill animals because of filming, so they paid the snake catchers some money and asked them to take them to release the snake in a remote mountain.

But even if the snake was caught, many actors still had lingering fears, so everyone got together, and they were so courageous. Later, they were bored and didn't know where they found a few decks of cards. They played cards and chatted with melon seeds. .

Wei Jin can't play cards, so he can only join the chat team.

But Wei Jin obviously didn't chat very much, and listened to gossip and anecdotes without interest, like an iceberg.

Among the leading actors is an actor named Su Mihai, who has debuted for more than 20 years. In addition to his rich experience in acting, he is also very considerate and takes care of younger generations.

Seeing that Wei Jin was bored, she asked in a low voice: "If you feel bored, just tell me, it's okay to go back and rest."

Wei Jin's expression was slightly astonished, he froze for two or three seconds, and said to Su Mihai and the people on the other side: "Excuse me, can I trouble you to sit down a bit?"

Su Mihai: "?"

She cooperated with Wei Jin for the first time, thinking that this cold young man didn't like other people's concern, so Su Mihai smiled awkwardly and moved to the side.

And the actor on the other side was even more confused, not knowing where Wei Jin was offended, so he had to step back embarrassingly.

With no one around, Wei Jin let out a sigh of relief: "There are snakes."

These two words made everyone present stunned. Su Mihai and others followed Wei Jin's gaze and looked at his feet. Their faces turned pale with fright, and they jumped several meters away.

"Ah!!! There are snakes!"

Everyone in the room was startled.

"Where is there? Where is there a snake?!"

"On the legs... on Wei Jin's legs!"

"!!!!!!"

Wei Jin sat there motionless, with a snake as thick as two fingers wrapped around his trousers.

Suddenly there was a gasp in the room.

"Quick, hurry up and find Mr. Snake Catcher!"

The staff who heard the sound turned pale when they saw this, some went to find the snake catcher, and some went to inform the director.

As a result, Wei Jin was the calmest person in the audience.

But it is not comfortable to have foreign objects crawling on the legs, Wei Jin frowned slightly.

Several actors who had already stood outside were in tears.

"I didn't expect that Wei Jin looked difficult to get along with, but he was actually very kind."

"Yes, yes, just now I asked Sister Su and me to go to the side to keep us away from danger!"

"Wow, he's so gentle!"

Hearing these words, Wei Jin felt another burst of "...".

He doesn't care about other people's safety at all, but he is afraid that when he suddenly mentions a snake, the people around him will react too much, startling or kicking the snake, causing it to be stimulated, and it will cause trouble if it bites someone.

...and there is a high probability that the person who was bitten was him.

At present, the snake's mood is relatively stable. As long as he doesn't move around, when the person who catches the snake comes back——

"Oops! The snake catcher has gone to release the snake!" The staff member ran back panting, "They will take at least two hours to get back!"

“………………………………”

The pot exploded instantly inside and outside the yard.

"What should I do?"

"Wei Jin is still inside!"

"Wei Jin, you—" Su Mihai mulled words to appease Wei Jin's emotions, but saw a figure squatting beside Wei Jin. He held his breath, grabbed the snake's head, and pulled the snake before it could react. Pull the snake out!

Su Mihai: "??!!"
