Buy a house with 30,000 yuan and live in a small town

Chapter 562: Time Blinks

"Halo Effect" started filming on June 1st. Each story is ten to twelve episodes in size, and each episode has a main content of about forty-five minutes.

Meng Luoqiu completes the filming of a story in an average of two months. As the Spring Festival approaches, he is currently filming the last story.

During this year, the people around me have undergone changes in big and small ways.

When Liu Wangxue was still participating in the casting of the crew in Hai City, Tao Huaxin's due date arrived. Qiu Xiangrong posted a "Family Pregnancy" notice on the mini program store in advance. At first glance, customers thought it was a discount, but they found out it was a holiday.

Qiu Xiangrong gave himself and Tao's parents a half-month vacation, and the whole family went to the city in advance to accompany Tao Huaxin to prepare for the birth of her baby.

Tao Huayu owns a house in the city. He took the infrastructure into full consideration when purchasing the house, so it is very close to the hospital. There is a relatively famous maternity and child hospital within two kilometers. Tao Huaxin also had her prenatal check-up in this hospital.

Qiu Xiangrong was very nervous, fearing that something unexpected would happen in the next few days, so he asked Tao Huaxin to be hospitalized in advance to wait for the birth. It was the first time he had experienced such a thing, and he forgot everything he had learned about women and children from books. He just wanted to spend money, and asked the nurses for the best things from the delivery room to the newborn.

Qiu Xiangrong and her parents monitored Tao Huaxin's diet throughout her pregnancy. She also paid attention to exercise. She had good physical fitness, the fetal position was correct, and the fetus was of normal size, so she chose to have an epidural natural birth.

On the morning of April 23rd, Xiao Tiantian was born safely.

That's right, Qiu Xiangrong got what he wanted, a daughter. Her nickname is Tiantian, because the family was not satisfied with many other names, and finally decided to name her this. Anyway, "Bu Tian" was given to the little girl to give her a better life, and they also hope that her life will be sweet in the future.

The crew had no weekends, and the casting was the busiest during the first few days. So Liu Wangxue didn't go back. She called Tao Huayu and took a look at Xiao Tiantian.

After Tao Huaxin was discharged from the hospital, she went directly to the confinement center. Gu Xuelan bought some things and went to visit her on behalf of Liu Wangxue and Liu Nanshan.

At the end of May, I returned to Taojia Village from the confinement center. The nanny who was booked with the help of Du Yunkai came to work and lived at home for two months.

On the night of the casting, Liu Wangxue asked Wenxi to go shopping with her. Wenxi and she each bought some things, some for Tao Huaxin and some for Tiantian, and asked her to take them back with her.

At the beginning of June, Tao Qinglei, Beibei and Kang Kang took the college entrance examination.

After the twins finished their exams, they had nothing to do, so they ran around and played. They first went back to Yu Village to stay with their grandparents for a few days, then went to Taojia Village to play for a few days, and then went to the crew to stay with Liu Wangxue for a few days, experienced being an extra, and then went to travel to other provinces.

Tao Qinglei checked the results of the third test of Communication University of China in early April. He passed, but his ranking was not that high. The child was very nervous, fearing that he would be eliminated in the college entrance examination, so he studied hard in the remaining two months. As soon as the test was over, he fell asleep and did not wake up until the evening of the next day, which scared his family.

After the exam, Tao Qinglei relaxed, but he didn't go out to play. Instead, he took some illustration jobs online, hoping to earn some living expenses for his upcoming university life.

The end of July was Lan Xiaoxi's due date. On the 28th, she gave birth to a boy by caesarean section. His nickname was Ke Ke. When Liu Wangxue called Yue Cheng, who was accompanying her, she heard the name and asked why it was named. Yue Cheng just laughed it off.

Yue Cheng definitely couldn’t say it, at least not now - the “嗑” here refers to the “嗑CP”.

Why is it called "keke"?

It was because Lan Xiaoxi met Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong in the ecological park in early October last year that she created a group to support the two of them. Later, she found out that she was pregnant and calculated the time, which was the day they met in the ecological park.

Lan Xiaoxi thought that this child was born in a miracle, and that God had mercy on them for eating too much dog food. So she insisted on giving the child this nickname, and both parents could not persuade her, and Yue Cheng stood on her side, so it was decided.

In a few days, it would be the sweet "full moon + hundred day" wine celebration, but Liu Wangxue didn't have time to come back, so he sent gifts to both babies at the same time.

There are also several happy events in late August.

The first is the official opening of Wenxi’s offline store in Beijing.

After Wenxi added Mu Lezhang as her friend, she took some time to go to Beijing to see the store in Hongbin Plaza. She was very satisfied with all the conditions, and Mu Lezhang also gave her a lot of entry discounts, so after the foreign brand withdrew from the store, Wenxi signed a contract with Mu Lezhang.

The decoration started immediately after the contract was signed. The designer was invited by Wenxi and Du Yunkai. Wenxi was busy and it was impossible for him to travel between Beijing and Shanghai frequently, so he paid the designer extra fees. The designer was not only responsible for the design, but also for the decoration.

The decoration was completed in early August, and an auspicious day was chosen to officially open at the end of the month.

The remaining three are all graduation banquets.

First, Beibei and Kangkang, the twins successfully received admission letters for their favorite universities and majors. Beibei applied for the landscape architecture major of the Department of Architecture of Beijing University, while Kangkang applied for the fashion design major of the Department of Art Design of Beijing University of Fine Arts. Although Tao Qinglei's results in the third test were not ideal, his college entrance examination results were still good among his competitors. Looking at the list published on the official website of Communication University of China, his total score was ranked in the middle, and he successfully received the admission letter.

In addition, other children in the village who were taking the college entrance examination basically went to the "Academic Counseling Office" for consultation. From review to the college entrance examination, volunteer teachers headed by Gu Qingyue helped plan everything, and the children also achieved ideal results within their respective abilities. They and their families have to thank Gu Qingyue and Wang Junpeng, but that's another story.

Then there was Li Yu's graduation banquet. St. Ishmael University would start in mid-September, and he would be going to Country Y in a few days. Li Yu's grandparents and father were so happy that they not only held several tables in the village, but also in the city, and specially invited Li Yu's teacher and Liu Wangxue and others.

The twins' entrance banquet and store opening happened to be held one after the other, so Liu Wangxue asked for three days off from the crew and went to Beijing. Xu Qingsong also rushed over and told his family early on to go and show their support. Of course, Du Yunkai was also indispensable.

Liu Wangxue has always known that "Chunjian" is very popular now, but there is still a big difference between knowing and seeing it with your own eyes.

The brand not only has restored and improved models, but also fashionable elements, which are also the most popular among the general public. The opening, with new products and discounts, has caused crowds of people upstairs and downstairs, and there is a long queue at the cash register.

Liu Wangxue heard Wenxi whisper to her that in less than half a day, the turnover had exceeded one million. Although there were various reasons for this first day, the turnover would definitely not be this much in the future, but it would not be bad either.

Liu Wangxue couldn't control her mouth and it opened into an "O" shape.

Last year, because of the expansion of the production line, Liu Wangxue did not take the year-end dividend, and invested in Wenxi. Wenxi said to her happily: "Wait, I will definitely give you a big dividend at the end of this year!"

Liu Wangxue rubbed her hands together: "Does that mean I'm going to become a truly wealthy woman?"

Wenxi immediately hugged her: "Yes, rich woman, please support me~"

Liu Wangxue waved his hand and said, "Buy! I'll buy you whatever you want!"

The two of them laughed happily together.

Tao Qinglei and Li Yu's graduation banquets were scheduled for the next two days, but Meng Luoqiu couldn't possibly give Liu Wangxue so many days off in a row, because sometimes while filming she would have some inspirations that she needed to discuss with Liu Wangxue. After the discussion, she would modify the script on the spot and add the good ideas in. So Liu Wangxue would send the gifts she had bought to them, and Gu Xuelan and Liu Nanshan would also attend the banquet.

There were no major events from September to December. The crew had a few days off for the Mid-Autumn Festival in mid-September and the National Day later in the month. Liu Wangxue went back to Taojia Village to spend the first holiday with her parents, and Xu Qingsong went on a short trip with her for a few days.

Liu Wangxue didn't come home for her birthday at the end of December, but Qiu Xiangrong still made a cake and sent it to the courtyard. Gu Xuelan, Liu Nanshan and Xu Qingsong called her during dinner and celebrated her birthday online. There should still be a ceremony.

The crew did not take a break during the New Year's Day holiday and had to rush the work.

In early February, we changed the filming location and went to Beijing to shoot the last story.

Beibei and Kangkang were the happiest. It was winter vacation for the two children, so they went to the crew whenever they had time. It was also a task assigned by the elders of the Meng and Xu families. Because they were the most idle among the younger generation, they were asked to deliver food to Liu Wangxue.

The old man always felt that the food on the set was not good, and was worried that she would not get enough nutrition due to the high intensity of work. When Liu Wangxue called to thank her, she also explained that there was no pressure at work, and it was much more relaxed than when she was writing the script, but she just couldn't leave the crew. Besides, the crew was not short of money, so they would not deduct everyone's rations - the old man didn't believe it.

Finally, the Spring Festival holiday came. Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong staggered their departures. One was going back to Taojia Village, and the other was going to Beijing. Neither of them could leave early or return late. In the end, Liu Wangxue stayed in Beijing for one more day at the beginning of the holiday, and Xu Qingsong stayed in Beijing for one less day at the end of the holiday.

It was Xu Qingsong’s birthday at the end of March, but he was unable to return to Beijing due to work reasons. Liu Wangxue said that she would wait until the filming of the drama was finished and then she would go back and celebrate with him.

On April 10, the crew finished filming. Xu Qingsong was even happier than Liu Wangxue and urged her to return to Taojia Village as soon as possible.

It was impossible to go back quickly because Liu Wangxue was called over by the elders of the Meng family and the Xu family for dinner respectively, which would delay him for at least two days.

During the filming in Beijing, not only Beibei and Kangkang came to the crew to deliver meals when they were free, but also uncles, aunts, cousins, etc. would come to visit when they were free. When the crew was filming in other places before, Liu Wangxue would buy some delicious, useful and fun local specialties every time she arrived at a place, and send them to her home and hometown, as well as to Beijing. In the two months in Beijing, when the crew was not busy, she would also carry things to visit Meng's family and Xu's family. At the end of March last year, she only met Xu Qingsong's family briefly and recognized each other, but now she is really familiar with each other.

Xu Qingsong had no choice but to wait for another two days. These two days were even more difficult than the past year.

When the plane to Xi City landed, Liu Wangxue's heart was filled with sighs. Another four seasons had passed in the blink of an eye, and this time it was obviously passing faster and more unconsciously than before.

Xu Qingsong was waiting for her at the exit holding a bunch of sunflowers. He was wearing the windbreaker he had worn when he sent her to Hai City to participate in the casting last year.

Liu Wangxue saw him at first sight through the crowd, feeling a little dazed, as if time had not moved at all, as if this year had really just passed in the blink of an eye. She pushed her suitcase and walked out quickly, and when she got close to him, she loosened her arms and threw herself into his arms.
