Bai Jianping finally finished talking to the director. He simply packed up his things and got on the subway, thinking about the conversation he had just had with the director.
It turned out that the studio wanted to transfer him to another crew, which was the crew of "Dark Blood" that is now being discussed very much.
This crew did not shoot at the studio's film and television base, but at Pujiang Film and Television City, where the environment and facilities are more complete to meet the shooting needs.
The original person in charge of food on the crew was fired because someone had diarrhea after eating today, including the staff and actors, which delayed the filming progress. The director, producer, and dramatist were furious, and someone took the blame, so they packed up and left.
Then someone recommended him.
Bai Jianping felt that it was useless whether he agreed or not. Since the factory told him, they just wanted him to go. His personality was not as strong as Malanhua and he was used to obeying. Since the factory wanted him to go, then he would go.
However, after what happened, he suddenly felt a lot more pressure on his shoulders.
If there is a problem with the crew's food, it must not only be the person in charge's problem, but there must be something wrong in some link, and he must find out the crux of the problem as soon as possible.
His hand touched his pocket, and in his pocket was a big red envelope. The director had just given it to him, saying he was thanking him for his hard work over the past few months.
He didn't see how much it was yet, but it felt like it was quite a lot, and he held a thick stack in his hand.
As soon as he got out of the subway, his phone rang. It was Xiaobai's.
Xiaobai asked him on the phone when he would be home, and Bai Jianping said he would be home in ten minutes.
They were going to have a banquet for the fellow villagers from Baijia Village on the construction site tonight. They originally planned to cook the food at home. This was the arrangement before.
But this time Zhang Tan suggested going to a restaurant outside to save Malanhua some trouble. You must know how troublesome and hard it is to prepare a banquet.
Bai Jianping thought about it. Their lives have improved a lot now, and they no longer need to be frugal and spend one dollar as two dollars as before.
The restaurant where we treat guests is located in Huangjia Village. It is not a high-end place, but very down-to-earth.
Of course Zhang Tan could have hired a better place, but there was no need to do so, which would have made the fellow villagers in Baijia Village cautious and uncomfortable.
Bai Jianping did not go home, but went directly to the restaurant. Ma Lanhua was waiting for someone at the door. When she saw him appearing, she waved him over.
"Old Bai~Here!"
Xiaobai at Malanhua's feet was also waving to him, calling him over.
"Old...uncle, come quickly."
Bai Jianping glanced at the child. He was wearing beautiful clothes today and had a red cartoon hairpin on his head. He looked like a wealthy lady.
"Are you guys waiting for me at the door?" Bai Jianping was a little happy that his wife and niece were so interested in him, "Go back, go back, is everyone here?"
Malanhua asked him to go up by herself, saying that they were waiting here for the fellow villagers from Baijia Village.
"Come on, come on! My old man is upstairs." Xiaobai waved his hand to Bai Jianping to leave. He didn't look like he was interested in him at all.
Zhang Tan was supervising the serving of food upstairs, while Ma Lanhua and Xiao Bai were waiting downstairs. Not long after Bai Jianping went up, a group of people from Baijia Village came to the alley, all of whom were working at a nearby construction site, and they went together.
Coming.
"Aunt, here we come~~"
Xiaobai's sharp eyes and Ma Lanhua also saw it and waved this way.
There were more than a dozen people in the group, and it was very noisy. When they saw Xiaobai at Ma Lanhua's feet, they almost didn't recognize him. They hadn't seen Xiaobai for a while. Xiaobai had grown up a lot, and his temperament was very similar to that of Xiaobai.
The melon boy who used to run around in the mountains and fields is completely different.
"Old Dunzi, have you called Dunzi?" Xiaobai asked, looking at a dark-skinned man with a thick build. This is Dunzi's father. The father and son look very similar.
"I was beaten when I first came here. Xiaobai, when are you going back?"
"I still have to go to school. My old man said he would go back during the New Year~"
Malanhua led everyone upstairs. Bai Jianping and Zhang Tan were waiting at the entrance of the corridor. The group entered the private room. Half of the dishes were served, and the wine was also brought. They were all thirty-year-old Big Bear wines. Zhang Tante
brought from the land.
Normally, Bai Jianping and these fellow villagers eat and drink in a very casual manner, shouting and yelling, but today Ma Lanhua and Xiao Bai are both there, especially Zhang Tan. These people have restrained themselves a lot and are all polite.
.
Xiaobai was holding a small flower bowl and a pair of chopsticks, wandering around the table, looking at this dish, looking at that dish, and looking at the gaps, he would stretch his chopsticks sideways to pick up the dishes, playing guerrilla action.
"Xiaobai, come here." Zhang Tan called her over and asked her what she was doing.
"Eat fenugreek." Xiaobai said, giving Zhang Tan a piece of cooked roast chicken and chestnuts in his flower bowl.
Zhang Tan lowered his head and ate it in his mouth, and said at the same time: "Just sit here when you eat, don't wander around with the bowl in hand."
Xiaobai glanced around, looking at everyone sitting there, and asked in a low voice: "Is there not enough room to sit?"
"No, this is the chair prepared for you, sit on it."
Without saying a word, Zhang Tan carried Xiaobai to his seat. Everyone at the table said, "Xiaobai, whatever dish you want to eat, I'll turn it around for you."
Xiaobai's eyes wandered around, glancing at her old man, her feet dangling under the table, feeling extremely happy.
In the past, this kind of dinner party was always held at home. The space and dining chairs at home were limited. People sat next to each other, which was very crowded. There was no room for children, so Xiaobai could only walk around with his rice bowl and see where there was something.
If you have time, quickly put the vegetables into the bowl.
She was used to it, so as soon as the banquet started, she consciously walked around with her rice bowl, forgetting that she was an old man's baby.
After Zhang Tan finished eating quickly, he toasted everyone with a few glasses of wine, then took Xiaobai down from the table, went to the cubicle next to him to make tea, and showed Xiaobai some cartoons on his tablet.
No matter how easy-going he appeared, these fellow villagers from Baijia Village were still too reserved to let go, so he had to leave the table first.
As soon as he left, the atmosphere at the table became much more lively.
Zhang Tan sat there for a while longer, then took Xiaobai away first.
Night has fallen, the moon rises, and a faint silvery glow is splashed. The autumn sky is particularly refreshing, the night sky is clean, and the moon and stars are particularly bright.
While walking in the alleyway home, the street lights were on. Many people in the small shops along the street and people sitting on the roadside knew Zhang Tan and greeted him and Xiaobai at the same time.
Xiaobai jumped up and down and responded enthusiastically. When she reached a place with few people, she curiously asked why all these people knew her.
Zhang Tan held her little hand and said, "These people are all your uncles, aunts, grandmothers and grandfathers~"
"Huh?! I have so many relatives?"
"They are all dad's elders, so of course they are also your elders."
"...oh~"
Holding the old man's hand, Xiaobai was jumping up and down, chattering, asking questions, and was in a great mood.
Zhang Tan glanced at her and said, "Oh, it's so dark here and there are so many holes on the ground. Will the children fall if they walk here? Xiaobai, let me carry you on my back."
Xiaobai was stunned and said: "Isn't this bad?"
"Look, it's still very dirty here. Your little white shoes will be dirty. This is not good. I have to carry you through this section of the road."
Then without any explanation, he squatted down, patted Xiao Bai on the back, and asked Xiao Bai to come up. He only felt quiet behind him for a while, and then a small body climbed up, and a pair of small hands hugged his neck...
