Become a minister [Ancient and modern]

Chi Mu'an was taken aback, just like the slightly surprised Jiang Momian, he didn't expect that there were other people in the room.If it weren't for this call, I'm afraid they wouldn't have noticed it at all.

She slowly agreed in a daze: "Okay, old man, you go first."

After a moment of trance, I suddenly felt that this might also be a good thing.

This place is too poor and barren. This old man is old and weak, and living alone must be very difficult. Now knowing that she has a companion to support each other, it is naturally better.

The old man hurriedly opened the floral curtain and went into the bedroom. Chi Mu'an and Jiang Moren were waiting outside. After a while, he heard the strange voice inside again.

"Ah... rice, rice, hungry... eat..."

This voice is weird, the voice is old and weak as if it came from the mouth of an old woman, but the tone is full of immaturity of a child. Chi Muan heard it for the first time, but before he listened carefully, he thought he had heard it wrong. It's right.

She also asked Jiang Momian at the side: "Miss Jiang, did you hear that?"

Jiang Momian nodded, and only said, "Yeah."

She has seen a lot of people and the world, and now she can probably guess what the people inside are like.

The old man hurried out again, walked towards the small stove with only a big iron pot, and said as he walked, "She's hungry, I'll feed her something first."

Chi Mu'an watched as she opened the lid of the pot, picked up the potatoes in the pot one by one with chopsticks, poured a little oil and salt to mix it up gently, and rushed back to the bedroom with the bowl in his hand.

Chi Mu'an pursed his lips, with complicated expressions in his eyes, hesitated for a while, and then slowly walked towards that bedroom.

Jiang Moren followed beside her and helped her lift the floral curtain that blocked the door.

Once inside, all the scenes in the bedroom of less than four square meters can be seen instantly.

A wooden bed occupies most of the bedroom. On the bed lies another old woman, who looks a little younger than the old man. Her lower body is covered by a quilt, her head is tilted to one side, her mouth is open, and she is chewing potatoes while Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth.

The old man sat by the bed, held a bowl to feed her, and picked up a towel to wipe off the saliva on her face every once in a while.

The people on the bed ate very slowly, Chi Muan didn't say a word, just watched intently, his thin lips were tightly pressed into a straight line, and his dark eyes looked pitiful.

The old man with his head tilted was chattering, happy to eat, his eyes narrowed, and he called "Mom" a few times with a smile, like a three-year-old child.

Jiang Momian could see that Chi Mu'an was so preoccupied that even the air around her was a bit oppressive. She opened her mouth to break the silence in this cramped space.

"Old lady, is this your daughter?"

Poverty and illness are not shameful things in the eyes of people who have lived in mountainous areas for a long time. When Jiang Momian asked, the old man told the truth.

The grandmother on the bed was an abandoned baby she picked up. She suffered from cerebral palsy since she was a child. After being abandoned by her original parents, she was brought home by the old man to raise them. The two have been living together in this small thatched cottage. The old man regards her as his own. Daughter, taking care of her daily life.It's just that until now, her illness has not improved, and she can't even dress and eat by herself, and walking is a big problem.

"I originally thought that it would be nice to take care of her like this for the rest of my life, and I would like to, but I am 76 this year, and she is over 50, and it is becoming more and more difficult to take care of her. Often we can't even eat enough. I don't know. How long can I stay with her like this, it's okay now, I can barely live, but I'm worried what will happen to her after I leave?" The old man said slowly, with worried eyes on his vicissitudes of life.

"The man who came last week, he said that I just need to do as he told me, and he would give me 30 yuan if I said a few words that you came to our house to make trouble Live the days to come. I... I heard from him that it won't have a big impact on you, so I agreed..."

Jiang Momian told her matter-of-factly: "This will ruin her career and reputation."

The old man knew it a long time ago, so he nodded and did not speak again.

In the afternoon, Chi Mu'an personally recorded a video of the old man's statement. Jiang Momian took out the statement he had prepared and printed out the report. The old man left on it the few words he knew, her name.Then he pressed another handprint as Jiang Momian said.

After collecting all the supporting materials, they left the mountain. On the way, Chi Muan was full of thoughts, and he hesitated to speak several times in the car.

"Well, it's this person. Check his personal information, recent life records and contacts. Yes, but I need it urgently. Let me know as soon as you have any news." Jiang Momian hung up the phone, the key was in the lock With a click, the door opened.

After entering the room, she sat down on the sofa, unlocked her phone and looked at her schedule for tomorrow.

Before I knew it, it was the semi-finals of "Star Rise" tomorrow.

She reminded Chi Mu'an expectantly: "Tomorrow is the semi-final, do you want to practice? Do you want me to help with the play?"

The content of the semi-finals is to perform the script fragments without real objects on the spot, solo, each person has 8 minutes, and the score statistics of this round do not include the fan ranking data, and the content of the performance in those 8 minutes is judged as good or bad.In addition to the judges, there are also live audiences specially invited by the program group, all of whom are film critics, producers or directors in the film and television circle, and their votes are also counted in the total score.

There are hundreds of eyes on the scene, staring at the huge stage, the pressure of performing can be imagined.Jiang Momian wasn't worried about the stage fright of a person like her who was used to being an emperor, it was just an extra preparation, which was beneficial and harmless.

"No need for now, I'm ready for tomorrow's performance." Chi Mu'an didn't seem to be interested in this matter, he walked to the edge of the sofa, put his crutches against the wall and sat down.

"Okay, as long as you are ready, tomorrow... I will go to see you on the spot."

The program group announced tomorrow's competition system. The contestants all knew that there would be two flying guests as judges for the semi-finals tomorrow, but they didn't know who they would be.Jiang Moren didn't tell Chi Muan that she was one of them.

Hearing this, a small spark ignited in Chi Muan's depressed mood: "Is Miss Jiang going too? Are you busy tomorrow?"

"Well, tomorrow's arrangement is to see you and behave well." Jiang Momian smiled, took out a yellow grapefruit from the fruit basket, and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"

Looking at the grapefruit, Chi Mu'an suddenly fell silent, pursed his lips for a moment, and then slowly said: "Miss Jiang, I know you have great powers, I have a request, can you do me a favor?"

Jiang Momian said, "Okay."

Chi Muan was startled, and looked up at her: "But I haven't said anything yet."

"Is it too much?" Jiang Momian asked casually.

Chi Mu'an shook his head quickly: "No, not too much." She still has some sense of propriety.

Jiang Momian said, "Isn't that right? I promise you, let's talk."

In fact, Jiang Momian vaguely guessed what she wanted to say since her performance on the way home.

"I was thinking about what the old man said about the nursing home today." As soon as Chi Mu'an thought of the scenes he saw in the small thatched hut, infinite sorrow and pity arose in his heart, "Miss Jiang, what are they doing now? There is nowhere to go, can you find a suitable nursing home for them?"

"Yes." Jiang Moren said calmly, "But you were almost killed by them."

Chi Mu'an sighed softly: "The old man must have acted helplessly at the beginning, not to mention that now she has clarified for me, and the merits and demerits are equal. I only hope that she and her adopted daughter can maintain their lives and die without regret."

"it is good."

Jiang Momian actually didn't regard this as a big deal, and was willing to help her fulfill a wish.Besides, she saw what was going on in that mountainous area today, so she felt very uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.

"I will find someone to arrange this and get them out as soon as possible, but it will take a little time, definitely not in a day or two."

The procedures for entering a nursing home are very complicated, and it doesn’t mean that you can go there. What’s more, the old man lying on the bed and abandoned by his original parents must not even have a formal ID card. He just needs to apply for an ID card and local household registration for her. It will take a few days.

As long as Jiang Momian agrees, Chi Muan believes that she will do it, and immediately becomes happy: "I can wait. I..."

"I don't have enough money right now..." Chi Mu'an's words were suddenly difficult to say. She thought of the small bedroom where the old man said that it would cost 30 yuan for two people to live in a nursing home.

It's a pity that she has just become an actress not long ago. She used to play tricks in various crews and play some unimportant fringe roles. She didn't have much money. Now she is a bit famous for participating in the audition, but there are many business cooperation invitations that can make money quickly.But if you want to blame it, you can blame it, she pushed it away with her own hands.

During this period of time, many brands have approached Chi Mu'an as endorsements, namely Tianyuan Apple Juice, Chaotian Lotion, Aijia Pet Hospital and Belle Clothing.She rejected them on the grounds that the raw materials were fake, the introduction did not match the actual effect, the environment in the store was bad, and the price was deceptive.

There were also directors of several online dramas who approached her to act as the female lead, but Chi Mu'an told them solemnly: "Now I have a drama in hand, so it's inconvenient to do it."

Later, she injured her leg. Although she barely managed to finish filming the court drama in which she played the No. 3 heroine, it was a pity that when the contract was signed for this drama, the pay was set at a low rate. When the money came down, the company ate up more than half of it In the end, less than [-] yuan was paid to her account.

This is definitely not enough to pay for the nursing home, Chi Mu'an's economy suddenly appears to be in distress at this time.

After thinking about it, she still said the unspeakable words: "Miss Jiang, can you lend me this money first, and I will definitely return it to you with interest in the future."

Jiang Momian readily agreed to all her requests, and in exchange, she only made one request that Chi Mu'an make money without losing money.

The author has something to say: After reading this chapter, there should be many readers who think that the author (or the little emperor) is sick and don’t agree with this approach, or they are angry and think it’s unnecessary, like a virgin or something… Tell me the reason , I won’t explain too much, because of the character of the character, the little emperor in this article is such a person.

In addition, the incident at the old lady's house was a true incident I saw, and I made a slight adaptation.
