TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS

Chapter 121 - Arranging To Go To The Ji Residence

After filming all the scenes in the county, they went to shoot in the city for ten days.

The film was filmed very well. Because Little Bei's acting was good, crying scenes were often completed in one shot. The speed of their progress was a lot of fun, and it actually went much smoother than planned. They recorded one-third of the film.

At this point, Tian Xiaoxiao's scene was completed. The main scene involved Little Bei and the other actors.

Director Lu really wanted to finish filming at once, but he could only think about it. After the summer vacation, Little Bei will soon start going to school.

Coincidentally, the village scene had not been shot yet, so Director Lu followed Little Bei and Mu Jingzhe back to the village, waiting for Little Bei to continue filming after school.

Before Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei returned, Ji Buwang came to look for them.

He did not come empty handed. Instead, she brought a gift—five school bags with stationery boxes and other stationery staples inside.

“I don't know what to buy. I think they'll need a school bag when school starts. I hear a lot of kids like them.”

Ever since she expressed her love for him last time, she felt that Mu Jingzhe was a little uncomfortable. During this period of time, Ji Buwang did not attempt to find Mu Jingzhe as he usually did. Instead, he gave her time to accept it.

When he saw Mu Jingzhe again, his eyes still shone, but unlike before, he did not stare at Mu Jingzhe without blinking. Instead, he held back a little.

"Thank you."

Mu Jingzhe scratched his head, wanting to resist, but after seeing how much thought Ji Buwang put into it, he could not force himself to reject his good intentions.

Seeing Ji Buwang seriously communicating with Little Bei, Mu Jingzhe recalled Ji Buwang's words about raising the five children together. Now, it seemed like he had not only said it casually but actually intended to do so.

Mu Jingzhe was in a dilemma. It would be too great a sacrifice for him to be the stepfather of five children and raise them with him. Is he really interesting? He's just an ordinary guy.

After thinking about it, Mu Jingzhe felt that it was all due to his face blindness. If he could see others, he would not drown so deeply.

If he could only see his face for the rest of his life, would he be fed up after a few years?

Mu Jingzhe's mind floated until Little Bei called out his name. "Mom, what are you thinking?"

"Huh?"

"Master Ji is talking to you."

“Oh, oh .. What did you say? Sorry, I was thinking about something else.”

“I told you I have a lot of books at home. If you have time, you can take the kids to my place to read. You can bring back anything they like. You often buy books for them. ”

“Yes, that's mainly because they love it.” There were no phones during this period, so the children were engrossed in reading.

During the summer holidays, in addition to taking regular foreign language classes, children spend most of their time in the local library.

This was especially true for Shao Xi and Shao Nan. They basically spent the entire summer vacation in the library. If they do not know the words, they will use a dictionary to check. Mu Jingzhe felt that they knew more words than he did. This was because there were many foreign words that he had to guess how to pronounce, but they could read them accurately.

After recalling that he was still their teacher a few months ago, he felt like he was unable to teach them anymore.

There are very few books in the local library, and some of them are loaned out. The two children had read most of the books they could read.

Mu Jingzhe could only purchase a few additional books for them. Ji Buwang's suggestion was indeed teasing Mu Jingzhe.

Buying books in this era is not as convenient as buying books in the future, when one can easily place an order online. It would certainly be better if they could borrow some books.

"Isn't that too much trouble for you?" Mu Jingzhe was tempted, but he still had some worries.

"thank you. I'll take them there next time.”

"Good." Ji Buwang had invited Mu Jingzhe to his house several times, but he never succeeded. During filming, he unsuccessfully invited them to stay. When they go there during filming, they just stay outside, not inside.

This time, he finally succeeded. Ji Buwang was very happy. It seems that his hard work during this period has paid off.

"Then we'll go on the weekend after their art school class."

"Good."

Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei returned to the Great Eastern Village with the crew.

This was the first time a film had been filmed in the Great Eastern Village, and all the villagers were very curious about it.

Director Lu and the staff were also surprised by what they saw. They had heard from Director Lu that Mu Jingzhe also had other businesses, but they never expected that Mu Jingzhe would actually run a small factory with a mature production line at home.

Shao Dong, who was a child, had even formed a scavenger team. It was said that the team had scavenged its way to the capital, Ocean City.

Shao Xi was also quite a great—the articles he wrote were published in magazines and newspapers.

The remaining half of Shao Xi's vacation was very satisfying, especially after the incident with Chubby Boy. She wrote several articles from the children's point of view, which attracted a lot of attention and discussion and was even published in Education Weekly.

The youngest, Xiao Wu, was a music genius. It was fun listening to him play the flute. Director Lu even wanted to entrust Xiao Wu to compose music for his film, because he said that Xiao Wu's music had a soul.

Xiao Wu did not know what composing the film's music was like, but Director Lu said that he trusted Xiao Wu.

Just like that, Xiao Wu had been offered a job. Since he was too young, Director Lu wanted to show Xiao Wu the film when he was almost done editing. Hopefully, after Xiao Wu sees it, he will be inspired to compose the music for the film.

All three children are capable. There was no need to mention Little Bei. Director Lu also felt that this child was not simple when he looked at Shao Nan, whose talent seemed hidden compared to his brothers.

When the school officially started, Director Lu learned that Little Bei and Shao Nan had successfully truant. They have done well last semester and have also done quite well in spot-check exams before school starts. When the school started, they skipped second grade and immediately entered third grade.

Since Shao Dong and Shao Xi also missed one class, they would study in the fourth grade when the school started. However, this is only temporary. Shao Dong and Shao Xi plan to skip class again and go straight to fifth grade next semester.

Director Lu and the crew members could only give them a thumbs up. Everyone in this family is amazing.

Taking advantage of the break and after school, filming sessions in the village were completed within a week.

There were even some people from the Great Eastern Village who appeared as guests as passers-by and extras. Zhao Lan and Li Zhaodi were both chosen, and they even had a line or two.

They both felt proud of being chosen, but they did not expect that the role they got would be evil.

Zhao Lan played a cruel grandmother, who basically she was just acting as herself. Li Zhaodi plays a matchmaker. The scene only lasted for two to three seconds, but the depiction was very clear.

That was because Li Zhaodi truly possessed the disposition of an evil matchmaker who only cared about his own interests.

On the first weekend after the school reopened, Mu Jingzhe brought the children to learn a foreign language as usual and prepared to go to Ji Residence as promised.

Shao Dong, Shao Xi, and Shao Nan took this opportunity to go to the bathroom and talk for a while.

“Although I am very happy we were able to borrow a book from him, I feel Teacher Ji is a little too considerate around us and Mother.”

Shao Nan nodded. "I think so too. He even gave us backpacks each time school started.”

Shao Dong understood. “Mama has agreed. In addition, it would be better to borrow books. We have to go as agreed. However, we cannot continue to receive gifts from him without replying. Let's return the favor and give him something. ”
