Rebirth 07 Becomes the First Internet Celebrity.

"By the way, are you familiar with your next-door neighbors? When I was chatting with them today, I learned that they rented two rooms. Their two daughters are here for the summer vacation and will be back soon, so they are about to give up the other house. What do you think about me renting it and being your neighbor?"

"I'll try to find a job tomorrow. If not, I'll find a job at a labor agency and enter the factory. But I don't know if the new factory has dormitories. If there are no dormitories, I'll rent the house next door." Yu Juan talked very frequently, and sometimes she would jump from one topic to another without Jiang Xue's answer.

Moreover, the short period of time they spent together made her more familiar with Yu Juan's personality.

She is a very hardworking and capable girl, and she doesn't have too many complicated thoughts.

She is a bit of a socialite. She has lived here for more than a month without saying a word to her next-door neighbor, but this person has only been here for one day and has already established contact with the next-door neighbor.

She accompanied her to an interview for a job at a clothing store outside the film and television city. When faced with an industry that she was not good at or familiar with, she became dull and timid.

"I felt so unsophisticated and out of place in that environment."

"Xiaoxue, you are so good at putting on makeup. Can I learn from you? I also want to look better and more confident." Jiang Xue seemed to see her own shadow in her from her previous life.

"Sure, you can come to the store to see me whenever you have time."

"By the way, I asked the boss of the store today. The movie city is hiring extras for about 60 yuan a day. If you can't find a job and don't want to be idle, you can go and give it a try."

"Can I do it..." Yu Juan asked a little uncertainly.

"It's very simple, give it a try."

The next day, Yu Juan went there early in the morning and appeared in the store where she worked at noon with a dirty face.

Holding sixty yuan in her hand, she said to Jiang Xue with a smile: "I pretended to be a beggar for most of the day today, and I even saw a star. The person in charge asked me to go again early tomorrow morning. I will shoot for a day and the salary will be one hundred yuan." Perhaps getting the money offset her anxiety of the past few days, and she happily talked to Jiang Xue about the filming inside.

Yu Juan had been a supporting actress for about a week. She complained to Jiang Xue that the boxed lunches were unpalatable and prepared to bring her own lunch.

Then he asked Jiang Xue if she wanted to, and if she did, she would get up early in the morning to do it together.

Jiang Xue shook her head. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and she had no appetite. She just wanted to have something to eat at a roadside shop. She felt it was too much of a hassle for Yu Juan to cook so early in the morning.

Yu Juan ignored her refusal and said that if there was no work in the morning, she would prepare it and send it to the store.

When she got home from get off work in the evening, she asked Jiang Xue not to go out to eat, and she would cook more for them to eat together.

She refused to accept the money Yu Juan gave her. "I don't pay you rent for living here. It's simple and doesn't cost much."

Jiang Xue had no choice but to bring back some meat dishes as a snack for the two of them.

"The lunch boxes that the crew eat inside are delivered by restaurants outside, right? I see a lot of people coming out to buy food." Jiang Xue asked Yu Juan.

"You can eat the crew's meals. If you don't want the crew's boxed lunches, tell us in advance when you order your meals in the morning, and you can get a 6 yuan meal allowance. Those who come out to eat are those who think the crew's boxed lunches are too bad, so they come out to have a bite."

"Then you can consider setting up a stall and selling boxed lunches. Your cooking is really delicious. The food cooked by several nearby restaurants outside the base is not as delicious as yours. There are many businesses here who also need to order meals. I see a construction site not far away with many migrant workers. The demand is still very large, so you shouldn't have trouble selling your food." Jiang Xue suggested while organizing her words.

"Selling food..." Yu Juan repeated hesitantly.

"Being an extra doesn't mean you have work every day. The fact that you cook delicious food is your advantage. Besides, even a small business can make more money than you would if you were an extra or worked in a factory." Jiang Xue continued to persuade.

"Can I do this? It will cost a lot of money."

"If you don't try, you will never succeed. If you try, what if you succeed? If you are short of money, I can lend it to you first."

Yu Juan was thoughtful and thought for a long time, then confessed her situation to Jiang Xue.

"To be honest with you, I'm really confused about the future... Qiuxia is about my age, and my family has already told her about her in-laws. Qiuxia said her parents said that if she settles down early, she can choose a boy with good conditions. But when someone came to inquire about my parents, they said they wanted to keep me for a few more years."

"My father and my stepmother saw that I had a salary every month and was valuable, so they wanted me to earn money for the family for two more years. If someone came along and offered a high price for me, I wonder if they would sell me off without caring about the other party's conditions." When she said this, Yu Juan's face was full of disappointment.

"The reason why I talked to Zhang Wei was because he told me that his family was well-off and he was good-looking. Several girls online said he was handsome. I was afraid that my parents would marry someone who was not as well-off as him. So I talked to him because he pursued me."

"I just wanted to take charge of my own life and make a choice, but I didn't expect to be cheated. You and Qiuxia must think I'm stupid." After Yu Juan finished speaking, tears flowed like pearls from a broken string.

Jiang Xue went forward and hugged her.

"Where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather. I suggest you don't be too greedy for family affection, otherwise they will use this to exploit you. If you can't resist them, stay away from them. And as women of our level, never pin your future on marriage. Rely on yourself and make yourself strong, then you will not be afraid of anything." Jiang Xue is not a person who likes to preach. She thinks that everyone has his or her own destiny. But for Yu Juan, they didn't spend much time together, and many times she saw her own shadow in her in her previous life.

The two talked a lot more.

Love yourself, rely on yourself, and put yourself first.

Make plans for yourself and consider yourself first.

In this information age when the Internet is not as developed and the information is not as explosive as in later generations, Jiang Xue's words gave Yu Juan a feeling of enlightenment.

She began to inquire at the construction site and to taste the food in some nearby shops.

Then within two days, Yu Juan told her that she was moving away and found a house not far from her place.

Jiang Xue went to take a look and found that it was a large bungalow with a kitchen.

The kitchen is very big and has a rural earthen stove.

This was the house where an old man lived before, and it was rented out after he passed away.

The rent is five hundred, which is quite expensive, but the house is much bigger than the one Jiang Xue lives in.

Yu Juan has already rented it. Not only that, she also bought a large rice cooker, seasonings, and disposable lunch boxes.

"I decided to listen to you and give it a try! Thank you, Xiaoxue."

"Come on, God will not let down those who work hard."

After Yu Juan moved out, Jiang Xue's life became revolving around going back and forth between home and school.

She would occasionally call her brother in her spare time. They didn't keep in touch often, but she would just talk about his recent situation. Her brother even came to see her once and stayed in the store for half a day, and then he would review and study.

The weather outside was getting hotter and hotter, and as a result, there were fewer and fewer tourists. With other makeup artists competing for her business, the money she earned was getting less and less.

Just when she was thinking about finding other ways to make money, one afternoon, Teacher Yang's daughter Tian Yuan arrived.
