Want to film grandma's life

At this time, Tang Jialin and Xu Long were almost at the village where their grandma's house was located.

She did not agree to Xu Long's invitation as soon as possible, but said she was willing to give them the help they could - starting a company is not a trivial matter after all, especially opening a company in partnership. She and Xu Long have only known each other for a week. Tang Jialin didn't even know his classmates and friends except for the two foreigners in the store.

Of course, Xu Long understood her idea, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea. "My two classmates did a great job in the later stages, and one of the female classmates was also very good at shooting..."

"Will that classmate help you control the drone?"

"Yes, it's her, she's very awesome."

"Wow, you must introduce her to me. I really want to play with drones."

"Okay, next time... tomorrow, I'll take her to your store tomorrow?"

Tang Jialin smiled: "You should also ask if they have time first."

"If I say she has a very suitable partner, she will definitely have time!"

"Don't worry, how old is she? Is she a student?"

"I don't know how old she is. She is also a student in school, she is a second-year graduate and is about to graduate."

"What major is graduate students?"

Xu Long thought for a while: "It seems to be related to literary writing."

"Wouldn't you be able to write, shoot and do post-production? Do you have such classmates, and you still need me?"

"It's worth it!" Xu Long was a little excited, "She is indeed very awesome, but she has a problem."

“What’s the problem?”

"Social fear." Xu Long looked distressed, "She was very nervous when she saw strangers. When she went to shoot, sometimes I needed an interpreter. She would be so nervous that she stuttered and talked to the subject, and her voice was very small, so she hoped that she would only be responsible for shooting and post-production, and not talk to anyone. "

What they did was actually filming interview videos, and they really needed to communicate with strangers. Tang Jialin expressed her understanding and asked, "Where is the other person?"

"The other is mainly to help me with subtitles. He has been very busy writing papers recently and has no time to help me."

"Then what you said you want to set up a company together, are you three?"

Xu Long shook his head: "It's mainly because of me and my male classmates, and the female classmates said she could work and didn't want to be a partner."

Tang Jialin looked at the front and said, "Okay, when you go back, you can see that they are free, so you can take them to my store and meet and chat - the students who are afraid of the society will not be unwilling to come, right?"

"I have a way." Xu Long said confidently.

Tang Jialin smiled and turned into the village. When she arrived outside her grandma's yard, her grandfather had already opened the yard gate and waited.

She lowered the window glass, said hello, drove the car in and stopped, got out of the car with Xu Long, and grandma also came out. After introducing them to both sides, Tang Jialin asked: "Have my mother told you all the time?"

"Well, I said you want to shoot videos." Grandma didn't understand very much, "What's the best place to shoot in our countryside?"

"I want to shoot a video and tell me what I was like when I was a kid."

Tang Jialin felt that her grandma could understand her, so she put her shoulder on her shoulder and explained: "Although I have been back in recent years, I often dreamed of my childhood, in the yard, in front of and behind your house, in the small yellow flowers on the slope, and in the garden... I was afraid that I would forget it in the future, so I wanted to remember it clearly now and take a video to commemorate it."

Grandma laughed: "How old are you? How can you forget things so much? But it's better to write it down, just take a photo."

"Let's go to the slope first, look around, set the order before taking pictures." Tang Jialin tried hard to explain in words that grandma could understand.

"Go, I'll make tea for you and come back later."

Speaking of tea, Tang Jialin remembered that she brought bread and red bean cakes to her grandma in the car. "I took less last time. My mother said that you like to eat red bean cakes, and I brought you a little more."

"Oh, I can't eat much, only you and your grandfather."

Tang Jialin's uncle and aunt were in the city to take care of her cousin's children, and there was no one at home.

"It's okay. It's cold now and it won't be broken within a week. I haven't finished eating it for more than a week. I can't eat it anymore, I'll get sick."

Tang Jialin asked a few words before she asked Xu Long to walk out. She went to the place where she came when she was a child and often went to play.

The soil slopes in late autumn are bare, not even the withered weeds are left, and the leaves of the woods next to them are almost finished. There is no scenery at all, but from here, you can see the panoramic view of the village.

The second and third floor buildings are clean and stylish, with new and old bungalows, simple and regular, and some chimneys are still blushing with blue smoke. The roads are covered with cement, flat and clean, but they are not seen. Occasionally, there are one or two, and you can see that you are old when you look at it from such a distance.

"There are very few young people in the village now. Unless they have a long vacation, they are even rare in their forties or fifties." Tang Jialin said.

Xu Long: "It's so quiet here."

"It's quiet to sleep at night. There is an idiom called "All sounds silent". Have you heard of it?"

Xu Long shook his head: "What does it mean?"

"It's just that all the sounds disappeared, so quiet that it's like this in the country night."

“Because there is no traffic, right?”

"Well, there are no cars and no people, everyone went to bed early."

Xu Long: "I want to take pictures here, can I?"

"Ah? We're just going to take pictures of this place."

"No, it's not yours, it's mine. I want to take pictures of this and your grandparents' life. Is it OK?"

"Then you have to ask them." Tang Jialin smiled.

It was the first time that a foreigner came to my family. Her grandparents didn't dare to look at Xu Long just now, and they didn't say a word to him.

"Do you think they will agree?" Xu Long asked.

"I won't tell you whether they agree or not. I'll tell you one thing first. They are old people who live in the countryside and go to bed early and get up early. If you want to take pictures of their day, you have to live here."

"That's great! I just want to stay here for one night."

Tang Jialin smiled and said, "They may get up at five in the morning."

"..." Xu Long gritted his teeth, "I can set the alarm clock, it's OK."

"Okay, then go and ask them."

When the two walked back, Tang Jialin remembered another thing: "Grandma doesn't have WIFI at home."

"It's okay to stay for only one night." Xu Long didn't know whether to convince Tang Jialin or himself.

The countryside is small, and the two of them quickly returned to their grandma's yard. After entering the house, their grandma poured tea for them and asked, "Does Longlong drink tea?"

Tang Jialin couldn't help but smiled.

Xu Long was nervous about the shooting, but he didn't care about her, so he said first: "Thank you." He replied, "Whoever drinks tea."

After taking the tea, he began to wink Tang Jialin. Tang Jialin saw that he was embarrassed to say, a little surprised, but he still said to him: "Grandma, grandpa, Xu Long likes our village very much. He wants to take pictures of your life."

"Ah? What are we going to take photos?" Grandma was surprised.

"I'll just take pictures of your daily routine, eat, do whatever you do, and do whatever you usually do, and don't need to do anything on your own."

Xu Long finally answered: "Yes, let's take pictures of your most real life."
