Traveling through the 80s, I picked up an actor

It rained heavily last night. When I got up this morning, the air outside was so fresh that it made me feel refreshed.

Jiang Li, a migrant worker, got up early, packed her things and went out to catch a bus. She got on the bus and luckily got a window seat. After sitting down, she opened the window a little to get some fresh air. As soon as she opened the window, the fresh and cool air rushed in, blowing Jiang Li's long hair.

The aunt sitting in the front just turned around and was caught off guard by the sight of Jiang Li's small and delicate face. She couldn't help but praise her.

"Girl, you are so beautiful, are you an actress?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li looked forward and discovered that the person sitting in front of her was an auntie who looked to be in her forties or fifties. She was looking at her with a smile on her face. Jiang Li always smiled at everyone she met, so she also grinned at the moment.

"Auntie, why do you ask that?"

The aunt smiled without hesitation: "I see you often. You are so beautiful and you always get off near the film and television city. You must be a big actor."

Jiang Li didn't expect that her aunt could come to the conclusion through reasoning, and she was immediately amused.

"Auntie, I work on the set, but I'm just a handyman."

"Oh my, she's so pretty, how could she be a handyman?"

"If he's just a handyman, then the director has no vision!"

"The little girl is so pretty and cute, she will definitely be famous if she starts filming a movie!"

Jiang Li couldn't help laughing: "Auntie praised me."

"Listen to your aunt! Go and film! Don't give up your chance! God will not let down those who work hard, and one day you will succeed!"

Jiang Li didn't expect that this auntie would be so talkative. Until Jiang Li got off the car, she kept encouraging her not to give up and to work hard.

However, Jiang Li is not obsessed with her own beauty.

There are so many good-looking people in the entertainment industry, one more or one less doesn't make a difference. For beauty, strength is more important for stagehands. It's useless to be good-looking when moving materials, props, and corpses. Eating more and saving more strength is the most important thing.

Jiang Li had been busy on the set all day. At this moment, Jiang Li was moving supplies with great effort, and was so tired that her back and waist ached. She was wondering when another staff member would be hired, when she saw a man wearing a work badge and looking to be in his forties walking towards her.

"Little sister, let me help you."

Jiang Li was worried that the box was too heavy to move, so she smiled and said gratefully, "Thank you for your help."

"You're welcome. Do you want to store it in the warehouse?"

"Yeah."

The man who came over was strong and muscular, with well-developed limbs. He took the box from Jiang Li's hand with his hand, and he seemed to be very relaxed. As he walked, he asked kindly, "Sister, are you new here?"

Jiang Li nodded: "Well, I've just been working for more than a week."

The uncle laughed and said, "That's what I said. I haven't seen you before."

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm the martial arts instructor here, my name is Wang Jin, you can just call me Brother Jin. Something happened at home a few days ago, so I took a few days off."

"Who introduced you to this job?"

Jiang Li didn't want to expose Li Mubai, so she simply said, "No, I applied for the job myself."

"Oh, that's how it is!"

Wang Jin smiled as he spoke: "I saw your work ID, you are a stagehand? It's very hard for a girl to be a stagehand. You are so beautiful, why don't you become an actor?"

Jiang Li laughed: "Not everyone can be an actor. I think being a stagehand is good and it suits me very well."

Wang Jin shook his head slightly: "Hey! What's so good about being a stagehand? You get paid a small salary, work hard, and get scolded. A beautiful girl like you should be a big star, make a lot of money, and live in a mansion!"

Jiang Li almost laughed: "Brother Wang, you are joking. I can't act."

"No one is born knowing how to act. I've been in this industry for decades and I'm very good at judging people. I think you have great potential for acting, but you just lack opportunities. I do know several assistant directors. Do you want me to introduce you to them?"

Jiang Li felt very strange. He was a martial arts director and it was their first day together. Why was he so enthusiastic about introducing her to a job? Was he so disappointed that they had met too late? Was he really overly enthusiastic, or...

Jiang Li looked at the uncle warily, but seeing that he was smiling happily and had no obscene expression, she thought she was overthinking it. Then she responded politely and found an opportunity to change the subject.

After moving the things, before leaving, Wang Jin patted Jiang Li twice and said that she could ask him for help if she had any problems in the future. Jiang Li felt a little uncomfortable at the moment, as if he was patting her and also touching her.

But the uncle's expression was very natural, exactly like an elder who cares for the younger one. For a moment, Jiang Li couldn't tell whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, and whether she should get angry or hold back and observe.

Before she finished her analysis, the uncle left on his own. Jiang Li couldn't make an accurate judgment, so she could only warn herself to be more careful in the future.

When Jiang Li got home from work that day, she did not see Li Mubai, probably because the event was not over yet.

Jiang Li almost vomited from eating the crew's boxed lunches recently. Today, she got to finish work early, so she thought about cooking for herself.

I haven't eaten wontons for a long time, so I was a little craving for them. Jiang Li went to the market to buy some wonton skins, some fresh pork and green onions, and then went home humming a song.

Jiang Li made quite a lot of wontons. On the one hand, she thought that if Li Mubai came home early today, she could cook some for him as a midnight snack. On the other hand, she thought that since she had so little time, she might as well make more and freeze them in the refrigerator so that she could take them out whenever she wanted to eat them in the future.

After Jiang Li returned home, she worked for more than an hour, and by the time the wontons were served, it was already half past eight.

Before she had eaten two, she heard the door creak open, and then she heard familiar footsteps.

Jiang Li was a little surprised to see the familiar tall figure flash in.

She put down her chopsticks, stood up and asked, "I made some wontons today. There are some in the refrigerator. Do you want to try some?"

Li Mubai had just come back from a dinner party. He had dinner at the Seafood Treasure House that night. The table was full of bird's nests, shark fins, and lobsters, but he had no appetite. He only picked vegetables and ate a few bites before putting down his chopsticks. But now, looking at the wontons with clear soup and green onions on Jiang Li's table, he suddenly felt a little hungry.

"Then please cook some for me."

"okay!"

Jiang Li happily walked into the kitchen, and Li Mubai also turned around and went into the room. When he changed his clothes and washed his face, Jiang Li had already put the wontons on the table. The round and plump wontons lay in a snow-white porcelain bowl, sprinkled with some green onions and a few drops of sesame oil, and the aroma was everywhere.

"I use chicken bones to make the soup base. It's very sweet. You can try it."

Li Mubai scooped up a mouthful of soup with a spoon, blew it slightly and put it into his mouth, and found that it was indeed very sweet. After drinking the soup, he scooped up a wonton and took a light bite. The meat filling was chewy and refreshing, refreshing and not greasy, and full of fragrance between the teeth.

Li Mubai felt that this bowl of wontons was very much to his taste. He ate them one by one without noticing and even drank up all the soup.

People are really strange. They can’t taste the delicacies on the table, but a simple bowl of wontons can cure a day’s fatigue.
