Shi Changle took his fiancée's hand, and under the guidance of his servants, he walked through the main entrance, bypassed the Chaoshou corridor, and walked to the door of the hall.

Looking at the imposing plaque on the hall door and the two groups of servants with expressionless faces on both sides, he paused, put down Shen Daiyun's hand, straightened his bow tie, and took a deep breath.

Shen Daiyun was taken aback, opened her mouth, then closed it again.

After all, she is a young lady from a big family, so she naturally knows that there are so many rules and regulations in this kind of deep house and compound, how can she be a newcomer who can talk too much.

Shi Changle lowered his head, pursed his mouth tightly, clenched his fists, and strode towards the hall.

"Father, I'm back."

He walked into the main hall, and saw a painting of a tiger descending the mountain hung in the center of the hall, with a row of gold foil paper on the girder, and the wind blowing in made a "hunting" sound.

This is the rule in their area. From the year when the beam was erected, every time there is an additional person in the family, a piece of gold leaf will be pasted on the top of the house.

Whichever family has the most gold leaves shows that the family not only has a large population, but also has never been separated, and the old house has been able to continue.This is also the meaning of hoping that the ancestors will bless the family members to prosper, guard the family and manage the business, and have gold mountains and silver seas, which are endless.

Liangzi in their family has not had a piece of gold foil pasted on it for 28 years since he was born.

Shi Changle walked up to Master Shi, knelt down and kowtowed three times.

"Ah."

Master Shi sat down and nodded.

"Kowtow to your mother."

"Mother, I'm back."

Shi Changle turned around, and kowtowed three times to the eldest wife next to Master Shi, firmly, and looked at Shen Daiyun standing aside, neither standing nor kneeling.

Having received a Western-style education since she was a child, she has only heard about this "feudal remnant", but now that she has actually seen it, she is really at a loss.

"Just come back."

The eldest wife accepted his salute, but she didn't ask him to get up.

"Why did you come back late? It made your father... and your aunt worry for a while."

As she spoke, she glanced at Master Shi who was sitting on the side.

"I encountered Japanese air raids on the road, and I was delayed at the train station for a while, which made my parents worry."

Shi Changle knelt, finished speaking expressionlessly, then lowered his head, and knocked on the ground three times, "Parents, please worry, it's because the child is not filial."

He said this respectfully, but there was a flash of hatred in his eyes.

"Changle, Changle, you are back!"

He saluted here like a rite, but a woman's high-pitched shouts came from outside the hall.

Shi Changle's expression changed, but in the end he still maintained the kowtow posture and bent down on the ground.

"Changle, my son!"

As soon as Aunt Mei entered the hall, she only saw the figure of her youngest son in her eyes, and rushed towards him.

"Changle, let mother see you, let mother see if you have lost weight? What are you doing kneeling, why don't you turn around and let mother take a good look at you."

As soon as she grabbed her son's shoulder, she was so excited that she shed tears on the spot.

Seeing this, the eldest lady took out her handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose with disdain.

"Cry as you say, an actor is indeed an actor."

Seeing this, Master Shi was extremely angry at Aunt Mei's recklessness, but one was his favorite concubine, and the other was his favorite youngest son. The behavior of the two was also the nature of a mother and child, so I could only "cough cough" He coughed dryly twice, reminding them to pay attention to their identities and actions.

Being pulled up forcefully by Aunt Mei, Shi Changle had no choice but to take a half step back, bowing slightly to his biological mother.

Because she is just an aunt, a "concubine" who is only half a head taller than a slave.

But he is surnamed "Shi". Although he is a concubine, he is still the serious master of this house.

Master Shi is his biological father, and the eldest wife...is his aunt.

Shi Changle's tightly clenched hands trembled slightly from the moment he entered the door, but the moment he stood up after bowing, his eyes were peaceful.

"Chang Le is back, Chang Le has seen Aunt Mei."

He said calmly, watching his mother's beautiful eyes that seemed to contain the stars in the sky, and two sad tears slipped down after hearing these words.

The mother and son just stared at each other sadly, until the moment when the servants came to report "the young master is back", they stood aside in panic as if they had been stung.

Shen Daiyun looked at the people in this room, as if she was looking at old events, or those actors standing on stage when she went to the countryside to watch social dramas.

She saw Shi Changle, the young master of the Shi family, coming back, saw Master Shi, the eldest wife, and young master Shi gathered together happily in a circle, and watched the three of them leave hand in hand, and finally... She turned around and looked at the To the mother and son who have never been noticed since Shi Changan entered the door.

They are also actors on the stage, why can't the lights hit them, and why the audience completely forget them?

What kind of family is this?

What kind of status is her fiancé in this family?

The aristocratic lady, who had never been familiar with the world, felt extremely at a loss at this moment.

"Okay, click!"

At this moment, Director Xu shouted to stop in satisfaction and stood up.

"Rest, eat, and wait for the night scene."

Without a single extra word, Director Xu finished his instructions and left gracefully.

"call……"

Seeing the three old actors walking behind Director Xu talking and laughing, Xiao Ya, who played Shen Daiyun, put her hands by her mouth and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Scared me to death... The aura of the three teachers is too strong, as is Cui Yingdi. Fortunately, I don't have any lines in this scene, otherwise I will definitely get stuck. In fact, I just stood there blankly, I was really stunned."

She looked up at Mu Yuanxiu with lingering fear in her heart, "Teacher Mu, you also acted very well just now. The suppressed resentment and faint unwillingness to grasp are just right. I thought you would be affected by the NG of the first scene." Well, I didn't expect the second scene to be over in one go."

"What kind of 'teacher' am I..."

Mu Yuanxiu said mockingly.

"I didn't expect to see you in this crew..."

This Xiao Ya was previously featured in "Where Does Love Go?" "Wang Shengnan plays the tough female man.Mu Yuanxiu didn't have many scenes with her opponents, but she only remembered that she was quite unique in the crew.After playing, I basically don't have fun with my peers, but quietly read the script on the sidelines and observe other people's acting.

"My master recommended me to come in."

Xiao Ya smiled embarrassedly, "Master is very supportive of me."

"master?"

As far as Mu Yuanxiu knows, there are not many professions where these two words can be used in modern society.

"My master is He Xian. I used to sing in an opera school in S City, and Master He was my teacher. Opera was in a recession, and there was no place to sing after graduation. Teacher He suggested that I act. She has been in the film and television industry for a long time. Yes, you can take me with you."

After all, nepotism is not something glorious, Xiao Ya blushed and whispered.

"She is willing to take you, which shows that you are also smart."

Mu Yuanxiu sighed.

"Yuanxiu, let's eat together later."

Cui Jingfan exchanged pleasantries with the three teachers for a while, and when he returned to the hall, he saw Mu Yuanxiu and Shen Daiyun talking happily.

Both of them are dressed in the clothes of modern youth in the 30s and [-]s.Mu Yuanxiu's white shirt and Xiao Ya's lotus leaf skirt exuded soft light in the setting sun, and the two stood there, smiling lightly, like a pair of jade lovers.

He clearly knew that he was no longer the "Mu Yuanxiu" whom he loved deeply, but Cui Jingfan couldn't control the sourness in his heart.

When he came back to his senses, he had already strode into the hall with big strides, breaking the gentle and charming scene just now.

Mu Yuanxiu raised his head and looked at Cui Jingfan who looked worried, a little surprised by his gaffe.

"No, Wu Kaiyan and Leo have already ordered delicious food from down the mountain. Eat whatever you want, and there is still a night scene to be filmed tonight."

As she said that, she turned and left, just in time to meet Wu Kaiyan who rushed in from the outside, and Li Ou who was carrying a large bag behind her.

"Yuan Xiu, we are back."

"Nephew, we're back."

The two hugged Mu Yuanxiu and left without looking at Cui Jingfan who was standing beside him, but before leaving, Li Ou greeted Xiao Ya and stuffed an apple into her hand.

Seeing the foreigner who was so affectionate with Mu Yuanxiu, Cui Jingfan was filled with unspeakable sadness.

Leo Oscar Brand, the second son of the current chairman of the "Atlantis" film, a new generation of director who has already begun to make his mark in the European film circle, is willing to let go for Mu Yuanxiu. He came to China from a long distance, just to be an assistant by his side, to be able to "get the moon first" and pursue the one he loves.

K reported this incredible event to himself in a half-joking tone.But to his ears, it seemed as if he had been slapped several times.

Things that a foreigner can easily do, but because of his foresight and hesitation, he has never moved forward.For the sake of his reputation and career, he was always unwilling to take one more step, which eventually caused "that person" to leave with hatred.

Now, what qualifications does he have to prevent the current "Mu Yuanxiu" from obtaining his own happiness?

It doesn't matter whether it's a woman or a man, whether it's that young actress named Xiao Ya, or this foreigner with a prominent background.Compared with themselves, they are more qualified to stand by Mu Yuanxiu's side and become his happiness and reliance.

Workers came in and out to remove lights and other props. Under the darkness, Cui Jingfan deeply felt that he was just a cowardly and despicable clown.

※※※

In the small row house of Hu's old house, Mu Yuanxiu, Li Ou and Wu Kaiyan were dining at the table of the Eight Immortals.

"Why is it all beef and mutton... Aren't you afraid of getting angry after eating it?"

Mu Yuanxiu looked at the dishes in the lunch box and asked.

"It's not because of him."

While eating, Wu Kaiyan glanced blankly at Leo, who was very proficient in using chopsticks beside him.

"As soon as he joined the group, people would say that Mr. Mu is really popular and use foreigners as assistants. I had to lie to them that he was a Uyghur compatriot from Xinjiang. Now everyone knows that Mr. Mu is here to protect Ethnic Unity hired a minority assistant. So let’s not talk about today, every day in the future we will only be able to eat these ‘Muslim meals’.”

"Thank you for thinking about it..."

Mu Yuanxiu shook his head helplessly.

"By the way, besides Cui Jingfan and the others, did anyone recognize you?"

Leaving aside his status as the young owner of "Ye Transit", Leo is quite well-known in the film circles of the United States and Europe.

"Oh, that director seems to have seen something. But he didn't ask, so I didn't say anything."

Leo shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "Whether I'm recognized or not, anyway, I don't care."

"Of course you don't care. When you pat your ass and run back to the United States, we will clean up the mess for you!"

Wu Kaiyan said disgustedly.

For the young owner of a big company and the identity of a well-known director.As a Chinese, she might have some real feelings, but this guy is wearing a foreigner's skin, no matter how you look at it, she doesn't have a real feeling.

"How could I 'pat my ass'? It's too vulgar. And I'm serious. I'll keep chasing Yuanxiu until he accepts me."

Leo put down the bowl and chopsticks and said persistently.

"Listen to your nonsense."

Wu Kaiyan scoffed, and said again: "Keep your voice down, don't be overheard by people outside."

Although the Hu family’s residence did not declare any cultural relics protection unit, it has a history of hundreds of years. When filming inside, everyone was careful, lest they bump into those fragile and gorgeous carved railings and paintings.

However, whether it is a hotel or a homestay at the foot of the mountain, they are all too far away from the shooting location, and it takes nearly two hours to go up and down.For the needs of filming, no matter how big the brand is or how famous the actors are, all of them live in this group of row houses on the periphery of Hu's old house.

It is said that these terraced houses were lived by the tenants of the Hu family in the past, and the conditions are really conceivable.

There is no Internet, no running water, except that it is connected to electricity and cleaned up, there is really not much difference between living here and living hundreds of years ago.

There are a total of ten rooms in this row of rooms. Except for the director, the three old artists and Cui Jingfan share one room, and everyone else, even the second male like Mu Yuanxiu, has to squeeze in with his assistant.

Outside the window there were people moving around, those who had eaten and walked around, those who had just come down from the set, all kinds of people came and went, there was really nothing *at all*.

But since the older artists never complained, how dare the young actors say anything more.

The beauty in front of others, and the suffering in others, is the true portrayal of an actor.

"Nephew, have you heard?"

Putting down the chopsticks, Wu Kaiyan approached Mu Yuanxiu's ear mysteriously, and said softly, "I heard that this old house of the Hu family...is haunted..."
