presumptuous [entertainment]

About a quarter of an hour later, Ji Yunyao came out of the study.

The servant guarding the door cautiously glanced at Ji Yunyao's expression from the corner of his eye, and his mind was full of questions.

Ji Yunyao is deeply loved by the old Patriarch, even the current Patriarch and her own father are not as favored as her. Ji Yunyao can sit in this position, a large part of the help is from the old Patriarch.

Being punished suddenly, the Ji family's servant who had a more active mind began to think about things.Could it be that Ji Yunyao fell out of favor, and the Ji family's heir is going to be replaced?After all, the current head of the family has other children. Although they are illegitimate children, they have no inheritance rights in name, but at that point, does it matter if they are illegitimate or not?In ancient times, there was also Kowloon seizing the heir.

Tsk, it's a pity that Ms. Ji is a girl. If she were a boy, the Ji family would have been hers long ago. Why worry about this seat being unstable.

The servant was thinking secretly, when he suddenly met Ji Yunyao's cold gaze.

The servant made a sudden move and almost screamed out. He took a step back and broke out in a cold sweat.

Ji Yunyao returned to the ancestral hall and knelt down again.

She straightened her back, her eyes were solemn, and she fixedly stared at the dark tablets.

A person quietly approached the door of the ancestral hall. The old Patriarch, who had seldom moved around, leaned on a cane, stood at the door, watched quietly for a while, and left.

Ji Yunyao remained in a kneeling position, motionless.

***

Qin Yinong went back and told what he heard at the banquet. Tang Ruoyao was as surprised as she was, and then became worried about Qin Yinong, asking, "Will it affect your relationship with the Ji family?"

Qin Yinong said in his heart that you really protect the weak to such an extent that Ji Yunyao has been locked up, and she is still worried that I will be implicated.

"Probably not, the relationship between me and the Ji family is not close." Qin Yinong said, "Besides, even if it involves me, besides my name on the family tree, it is better to let Ji no longer flow in my body." Family blood?"

Except for the day when she recognized her ancestors and returned to her clan, she went to the old house, and from then on, she only met at the annual family banquet.This year was the same as usual, the old Patriarch didn't even give her an extra look.

Ji Yunyao's father, Ji Zhang, was even more so. Ji Zhang was young when Ji Shulan eloped from home. Decades had passed, and he didn't even remember Ji Shulan, let alone the daughter of an aunt who had long been rumored to have "accidentally died".

However, his complexion was not very good when he was eating today, probably because of Ji Yunyao's anger.His other sons and daughters were happy and happy, and their cheeks were full of smiles. Although they deliberately concealed it, they still couldn't hide it from Qin Yinong's eyes.

Ji Yunyao made a mistake and was imprisoned, of course her brothers and sisters were the happiest.

The intended heir, after all, has not inherited the head of the Ji family and can be changed at any time.Ji Yunyao is aloof and talented, like a precision-running machine that compares their peers to the mud, and now she has destroyed the Great Wall by herself and fallen into their hands, if she doesn't seize this opportunity, it will be a waste of their time in Ji's house. for many years.

Ji Yunyao is in trouble.

Qin Yinong pinched the center of his eyebrows and said, "I owe her a great favor."

Tang Ruoyao said, "Is it still worth it?"

Qin Yinong said frankly: "Maybe I can't pay it back." Li Yichuan and Li Yichuan helped her out last time, and now she owes two, and Ningning's good things are not enough.

Tang Ruoyao spread out his hands as a bachelor and said, "Then I won't pay it back."

If there are too many lice, it doesn't itch, and if there are too many debts, it doesn't worry. Qin Yinong taught her.

Qin Yinong looked at her, laughed for a while, and said, "I think so too, but I still have to cook some good dishes."

***

At six o'clock in the morning, Ji Yunyao relaxed her tense tone, and her body swayed undetectably. She put one hand on the ground, bit her lower lip, and slowly stood up.

The joints are like rusted gears, and every bite makes the strength of her teeth a little stronger.

With a sudden movement of the ear tips, a pair of extremely cold eyes swept towards the door.

A tall and straight young man stood there, about a year or two older than Ji Yunyao, with a handsome and refined face.

Ji Yunyao saw that face that was two points similar to her, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, with a half-smile: "Brother, why did you get up so early?"

The eldest brother of the Ji family smiled warmly, with sincere worry in his eyes, and said: "I heard that my sister was punished to kneel, I am worried about you, come and have a look."

Ji Yunyao smiled and said, "See?"

The eldest brother of the Ji family became even more worried, and said: "You are a delicate daughter, if you kneel like this for a day and a night, I don't know if you will end up with some kind of disease." He said that he was distressed, but there was no pity in his tone, only gloating.

If he really wanted to get to the root of his illness, he immediately went to buy firecrackers and put them on.

As if Ji Yunyao didn't realize it, she went up the donkey and said, "Brother, please call the doctor for me."

Brother Ji: "..."

Ji Yunyao said a few words to him, her legs were almost able to walk, she stepped out of the ancestral hall without changing her expression.Passing by the young man, Yun Danfeng said lightly: "Brother really wants to know if the root cause of the disease will be caused, won't you know if you kneel down?"

No matter how wonderful the young man's face is, Ji Yunyao returned to the room without looking sideways.

Not long after, the servant knocked on the door and said that the doctor had come.

Ji Yunyao put away the box, put it in a drawer, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."

Ji Yunyao seemed pampered, but her endurance was far stronger than that of ordinary people. When the doctor massaged her to dissolve the bruises on her knees, she didn't even move her eyebrows, and kept flipping through a book in hand.

After finishing the treatment, the doctor quietly retreated out.After Ji Yunyao finished reading the book, she continued to stare out the window for a long time in a trance, not knowing what she was thinking.

The leaves fluttered.

The phone on the bedside table vibrated.

Ji Yunyao picked it up casually, and when she saw the caller ID, there was a trace of unconscious warmth in her eyes.

She picked it up, smiled casually and said, "Sister-in-law."

Qin Yinong raised the banner without hesitation and said, "Ning Ning said that he misses you, and asked when you are free to come over for dinner."

Ji Yunyao pretended to be sad and said: "Does Guang Ningning miss me?"

Qin Yi said nonchalantly: "My mother misses you too."

Ji Yunyao was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing suddenly, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Tang Ruoyao, who shared a pair of earphones with Qin Yinong, heard the devilish laughter inside, and unwittingly laughed along with it.

Qin Yinong glanced at her half annoyed.

With sharp ears, Ji Yunyao stopped laughing and said, "Little uncle is here too?"

Qin Yinong: "Hmm." Noncommittal.

Ji Yunyao said: "Since the invitation is gracious, then I will be disrespectful." She has a bad knee and needs to rest at home for a day, and said, "Can I do it tomorrow?"

Qin Yinong said, "Okay, send me what dishes you want to eat on WeChat."

Speaking of this, she should be about to hang up the phone, Ji Yunyao clenched her knuckles on the edge of the phone and moved, and suddenly asked out of words: "Which relatives are you leaving today?"

Qin Yinong replied truthfully: "Our family is going to Han's house today."

Ji Yunyao thought about it, and said, "Go back to your mother's house?"

Qin Yinong: "Yes."

Qin Yinong heard that there was no movement over there, and after a while, Ji Yunyao said, "I'll be there at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."

Qin Yinong: "Okay."

Two seconds later, the call was disconnected, and Ji Yunyao took the initiative to hang up.

Qin Yinong took off the earphones, and Tang Ruoyao put the two bluetooth earphones into the box.

Tang Ruoyao said with emotion: "It's like a little baby who lacks love, love for three seconds."

Qin Yinong shook the phone: "I'm still talking."

Knowing that she was dead, Tang Ruoyao couldn't help but her eyelids twitched and her heart beat so nervously.

Qin Yinong laughed and said, "I lied to you."

Tang Ruoyao gritted her teeth secretly, reached out and pinched the woman's face.

Qin Yinong put his arms around her waist and said, "Let's go."

Ji Shulan, Tang Fei, and Ning Ning all changed their clothes and waited in the living room. The whole family neatly drove to Han's house.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Ji Yunyao came to the Qin residence as a guest, and brought some gifts, which everyone had, including Tang Fei.

Tang Fei looked at his sister, Tang Ruoyao nodded at him, and Tang Fei took it.

"Little brother has grown taller again." Ji Yunyao exchanged casual greetings.

She can call Tang Ruoyao little uncle, but calling Tang Fei does not follow seniority.Tang Fei and Ning Ning called her: "Sister Ji." A polite little handsome guy, underage, Ji Yunyao didn't have the time to scare children, sometimes when he was in a good mood, he would ask him about his studies.

Tang Fei said, "Eat a lot."

Ji Yunyao: "Hahahahahaha." She asked, "Did you learn it from your brother-in-law?"

Tang Fei scratched the back of his head, not understanding: "Huh?"

Ji Yunyao said: "Praise you, say you are humorous."

Tang Fei: "Hahahahahaha?"

Ji Yunyao: "Hahahaha yes."

Tang Ruoyao helped Qin Yinong in the kitchen, turned her head to see that Tang Fei and Ji Yunyao were getting along well, and quickly looked away.Ji Yunyao is much better than the previous unpredictable look, and she is extraordinarily tolerant towards children. Although Tang Fei is a bit older, he is only a teenager, and Tang Ruoyao is not worried about him.

To say that Ji Yunyao valued Qin Jianing the most.

Qin Jianing's changes are also obvious, he is one year older, his stature has grown, and his facial features are more refined than before.Seeing Qin Jianing's growth, and comparing Qin Yinong's childhood photos, it turns out that they are not the biological mother and daughter.

Qin Yinong had been plump for a while before she slowly lost the baby fat. Qin Jianing didn't have this part at all. She was like her biological mother, she was a beautiful embryo since she was a child.

I don't know if she will be more like her mother when she grows up.

Ji Yunyao hugged Ning Ning on her lap to tease her, Ning Ning moved uncomfortably, Ji Yunyao pretended to be sad and asked: "What's wrong? Don't you like sister?"

Ning Ning pursed her lips and said, "No, I'm an older child, and I can't always be hugged by others."

Ji Yunyao: "I'm someone else? There's no boss, right?"

Ning Ning thought about it according to her words, shook her head and said, "No, no." She obediently sat in Ji Yunyao's arms, looking left and right.

Ji Yunyao sighed in her heart.

When a child grows up, sooner or later he will become unfamiliar with himself...

Forget it, let's talk about it later.

Ji Yunyao said, "Aren't you going to teach me how to turn the Rubik's Cube?"

Ning Ning remembered, and said, "That's right." She turned her head and said in a childlike voice, "Uncle, can you help me get two Rubik's cubes from the room?"

Tang Fei stood up: "Yes."

Looking at Tang Fei's back, Ji Yunyao narrowed her eyes slightly.

After a while, Tang Fei came out with two high-level Rubik's Cubes, and after confirming to Ningning that they were correct, he gave them to them.

One learns, one teaches, time passes unconsciously.

Tang Ruoyao opened the kitchen door and greeted, "It's time to eat."

Tang Fei was the first to stand up and go to the kitchen to serve dishes. Ning Ning jumped off Ji Yunyao's lap and followed closely behind.The big ones and the small ones crowded into the kitchen, and Ningning could be heard shouting from a distance: "Mom, save one for me!"

Ji Yunyao: "..."

It's just serving a dish, what are you fighting for?childish.

Ji Yunyao, who was thinking like this one second, stood at the door of the kitchen in a strange manner the next second, and said calmly, "Do you want to help?"

In order to entertain Ji Yunyao, Qin Yinong almost made a table full of Chinese and Chinese.The children went out with empty bowls and chopsticks, but were ordered by Qin Yinong not to come in. There were enough people in the kitchen, but another one would do. Qin Yinong changed his mind, and ordered: "You serve that green leafy vegetable. The soup is reserved for Tang Fei, he has thick skin."

The thick-skinned Tang Fei pretended to howl: "It's too difficult for me."

Ji Yunyao smiled: "Okay."

Except for Qin Yinong who was cooking, Ji Yunyao served the table with almost everyone else.Qin Yinong took a bottle of drink and asked Ji Yunyao, "Do you want to drink?"

Ji Yunyao: "I drink the same as you."

Tang Ruoyao poured drinks into the cups in front of everyone, and Qin Yinong took the lead in toasting, "Happy New Year."

Everyone toasted together and said in unison: "Happy New Year."

The family eats together every day, there is no need to do this, who is this saying for, of course it is Ji Yunyao.

Ji Yunyao stayed for dinner and left after dark.

Qin Yinong didn't ask about her punishment, and Ji Yunyao didn't take the initiative to mention it.Before leaving, Ji Yunyao received two New Year's gifts, one from Qin Yinong.

— A necklace with a pendant of a crystal-carved pig.

It's not considered precious, but Ji Yunyao treasured it into his palm.

The other one belonged to Ning Ning, who drew a picture for her.

It seems that Qin Yinong gave Ning Ning a painting for his birthday, Ji Yunyao thought.She saw it in Qin Yinong's circle of friends.She put the two gifts back into the box, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and closed her eyes in relaxation.

After the New Year, Tang Ruoyao took over the work of shooting several short films, which was considered a kind of exercise.The big rock in the hearts of the fans who were waiting to be fed was half lost, but they still hoped that Tang Ruoyao would be able to take on the new play as soon as possible.

Tang Ruoyao responded in an interview: "I have been charging recently, and it is almost full. If you have a good script and a reliable production team, you can join the group immediately."

As soon as her schedule was released, people who asked her to play came in droves.

Some contacted from Mu Qingwu, and some directly called her mobile phone.The phone rang again, Qin Yinong took it for her, smiled teasingly, and said, "Teacher Tang is very popular."

Tang Ruoyao shook his head triumphantly and said, "I don't even look at whose wife it is."

She stepped aside to answer the phone.

Qin Yinong shook his head and laughed.

Qin Yinong went through all the scripts that Tang Ruoyao gave her, but didn't like any of them.There are not many scripts that can make her feel refreshed after filming to her level. This is also the reason why she did not accept the film after "True Colors".

That being the case, the filming plan can only be postponed for the time being, until a suitable script is found.But Qin Yinong was a little anxious, as Han Yuping said, if she hasn't filmed for a long time, she might be unfamiliar, and it happened that An Ling accepted an advertisement for her.

The ad has some plot, and her partner is a young actor. Qin Yinong released his two years of performance accumulation in this ad, and played it to the fullest. The actor was overwhelmed by her aura, I was almost exhausted after filming.

Qin Yinong felt comfortable physically and mentally, and patted the actor's shoulder: "Not bad, come on."

The actor wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Thank you senior."

On the day the ad was officially launched, the actor posted a Weibo, describing the "thrilling" shooting on the set that day.

[Save the movie queen, let's see what the child has become 2333]

[New movie, I want a new movie!Knock bowl, etc.]

Not long after, Qin Yinong really received a new script written by an acquaintance she knew——Chai Ziqiu.Chai Ziqiu claimed that this was a manuscript he had accumulated for many years. He felt that it was not good enough after finishing it, so he put it at the bottom of the box. Last year, he was inspired to rewrite a draft.

Coincidentally, Chai Ziqiu was inspired by Qin Yinong. In a sense, he tailored a script for Qin Yinong.

Qin Yinong printed out the script in the company, flicked the cover with his fingers, slightly curled his lips, and put it in the bag.

At night, Tang Ruoyao saw the true face of the script.

She looked at the cover first, took a breath, and did not hide her shock: "Wu Zetian?"

Qin Yinong smiled.

Tang Ruoyao couldn't wait to turn back.

There is no need to repeat Wu Zetian as a person.Regarding her creation, there are many characters in film and television dramas, many of which are classics.There are also idol dramas that have been criticized by many people, making Wu Zetian a scheming idiot and sweet.

Chai Ziqiu's script is naturally written about Wu Zetian from the perspective of a generation of empresses, otherwise there is no need to turn it into a film creation.But it's not just the queen, the starting point of the script is very clever, Tang Ruoyao read the last page in one breath, and stopped abruptly.

Tang Ruoyao: "..."

Qin Yinong tapped the table with his index finger, and lazily said, "Don't you know about Chai Ziqiu's urination? He didn't finish writing."

Tang Ruoyao spat blood back into his throat, and said, "When will you finish writing?"

Qin Yinong said: "I don't know." She slightly raised the corners of her lips and asked, "What do you think?"

Tang Ruoyao nodded vigorously, his eyes shining brightly: "Okay, I want to take a picture."

Qin Yinong tilted his head: "Then give you this notebook?"

"No." Tang Ruoyao refused, "I can't act."

Tang Ruoyao is self-aware, she has far from enough experience to act from a young age to an old age, so don't take on this porcelain job without this diamond.

Qin Yinong smiled at her and said, "Can Shangguan Wan'er perform?"

Tang Ruoyao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Qin Yinong patted her head and made a final decision: "Then this role is for you."

Tang Ruoyao smiled for a while, and said, "Does this count as going through the back door?"

"Forget it," Qin Yinong squinted at her, "You don't want to?" She just wanted to say that it's okay to go to the audition, anyway, few people can beat her.Qin Yinong was not acting on his own will, Tang Ruoyao's appearance and temperament were in line with each other.

Tang Ruoyao said: "No, the first time I walked through the back door, I felt..."

Qin Yinong: "Huh?"

Tang Ruoyao said happily: "It feels really cool."

The two re-watched Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er's rivalry, Tang Ruoyao remembered: "You want to be the producer again?" It's up to whoever decides, how can the lead actor have such great power?

Qin Yinong said mysteriously, "Not only."

Tang Ruoyao: "Who do you want to cooperate with?"

Qin Yinong smiled and sighed: "Why are you so smart?"

Tang Ruoyao said, "Guess."

Qin Yinong shared her initial thoughts.She likes this script very much. Not only does she want it to circulate only in China, but she also wants it to go abroad. She has familiar directors and producers abroad...

Tang Ruoyao said after listening, "It will take a long time, right? And it may not be successful."

Qin Yinong said: "How will you know if you don't try it? Anyway, Chai Ziqiu is slow, give him more time to perfect the script."

Tang Ruoyao trusted her wholeheartedly, and said, "It's up to you to decide."

Qin Yinong nodded: "Then it's decided."

It was still about the movie that most motivated Qin Yinong. She began to move boxes of books to the study, and slowly got a glimpse of that strange woman from more than 1000 years ago from historical facts.Qin Yinong went to understand everything she left behind, the government orders she issued, her political ambitions, and so on.

In the first half of the year after the new year, Qin and Tang had several chances to get back together again. "True Colors" will be released in the second half of 2020. Some awards have already been selected, so they are included in the second year.

In April, "True Color" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of an international A-category film festival, and the two walked the red carpet together abroad.After the award ceremony, the two didn't return to China immediately, so Qin Yinong made an appointment with a director to catch up.

On the day of the appointment, the two were having breakfast, Qin Yinong stopped the knife and asked Tang Ruoyao, "Are you going with me?"

Tang Ruoyao was taken aback: "Me? What identity?"

Qin Yinong raised his eyebrows, and raised the ring on his ring finger.

Tang Ruoyao hesitated, "Is it possible?"

Qin Yinong took off the ring from Tang Ruoyao's neck and put it on her hand, and said with a smile, "There's nothing wrong with it."

The director is a bearded man from F country named Robin.

Seeing two people come in and sit down together, they understood everything, their eyes narrowed, and their smiles were quite ambiguous.

He called Qin Yinong "Qing", his front and back nasal sounds were not standard, his personality was very straightforward, and he seemed a bit gossipy, his eyes often rolled between the two of them.

Qin Yinong once filmed a movie in country F for several months, and he often came here frequently. There was no problem in daily French communication, and words he really couldn't speak were replaced with English.

Tang Ruoyao was a little nervous at first, but slowly he was able to have a few words with the other party.

Robin asked in French: "Your name is Tang?"

Tang Ruoyao answered yes in English, showing slight doubts.

Robin blushed and said excitedly, "Qing and Tang are two very powerful dynasties in China."

Qin Yinong said calmly, "So we are a good match."

Robin laughed.

He asked Qin Yinong how to say "good match" in Chinese, Qin Yinong taught him, Robin bit his tongue and said: "Like, match." Then he said in Chinese with obvious proficiency, "Happy New Year."

Qin Yinong smiled and gave him a thumbs up.

Tang Ruoyao blushed so much that she held up the cup to cover her face.

After Qin Yinong and Robin finished talking about the past, they explained their reason for coming, and Robin's expression became serious.

Tang Ruoyao stopped interrupting.

The next day, Qin Yinong met another producer, who still brought Tang Ruoyao there.

"Mud howl." The blond, blue-eyed, middle-aged man strode over, beaming with joy, and greeted him in Chinese with an accent, "Long time no see, Qin."

"Long time no see." Qin Yinong stood up holding Tang Ruoyao's hand, and introduced to him with a smile, "My wife."

Said it again in French.

Tang Ruoyao smiled dignifiedly and politely.

Once a stranger, second acquaintance, three times and four times, Tang Ruoyao followed Qin Yinong to meet one person after another, and finally became very indifferent.

Half a month later, the two returned home.

The annual Golden Osmanthus Awards announced the shortlist, and Tang Ruoyao and "Xiao Hong" were shortlisted for Best Actress.
