In the evening, Su Yi took Xiao Zhiyi to Xia Jingze's house. On the way, Xiao Zhiyi asked Su Yi: "Don't you want to bring some gifts?"
It would be inappropriate to visit an elder's home without bringing a gift.
"What gifts should I bring?
I'm not going to someone else's house, that's my uncle, my biological uncle."
Su Yi disagreed.
If he had bought gifts every time he went to his uncle's house, he would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Xiao Zhiyi pouted: "That's your uncle, not mine. It's okay if you don't bring it. It would be rude if I didn't bring it. You pull over and park. I saw a big supermarket."
Su Yizhen didn't feel the need to bring gifts, but Xiao Zhiyi's words made sense. In order to let Xiao Zhiyi leave a good impression on his uncle and aunt, he stopped the car obediently.
The car stopped, and the two got out of the car and entered the supermarket together.
The supermarket was indeed quite big, with several floors up and down. Xiao Zhiyi looked at the sign at the door and went directly to the gift area on the second floor.
Su Yi originally thought that she would take a long time to choose. She was confused about what to buy or what was suitable to buy. When she was thinking about whether to give her a few words, she had already made her choice.
Bird's nest, ginseng, and two boxes of supplements are not expensive or shabby. Even if such supplements are given out, it will not be a fault. At least they will leave a solid impression in the eyes of the elders.
Su Yi found that Xiao Zhiyi's emotional intelligence was quite high. He nodded and said, "Not bad."
Xiao Zhiyi raised her eyebrows. She had been taught by an old lady since she was a child. She was the best at these human etiquettes. Even if she didn't give the right gift, she would definitely not give the wrong one.
After paying the bill, the two of them went out and went straight to Xia Jingze's house.
It was already dark when we arrived at Xia Garden. Su Yi parked the car at the door of the villa where he lived, got out of the car with Xiao Zhiyi and walked in.
There was a servant waiting to greet me at the door, and he greeted me respectfully: "Master Cousin, you are here."
While getting slippers for Su Yi and Xiao Zhiyi to put on.
Because the names of Su Yi and Ye Muyi have the same pronunciation, the servants in Xia Garden are called Master Ye Muyiyi and Master Su Yibiao to distinguish them.
After changing into slippers, Su Yi led Xiao Zhiyi through the entrance hall and into the living room in a familiar manner.
There was no one else in the living room, except for Xia Jingze and Song Jiaren, who were feeding each other fruits.
Su Yi clicked her tongue: "Uncle and aunt, could you please stop me from spoiling you as soon as I come and denying people food?"
"You brat, your skin is itchy, right?"
Xia Jingze glared at him, then looked at Xiao Zhiyi.
Xiao Zhiyi smiled brightly: "Director Xia, Mrs. Xia, hello, I am Xiao Zhiyi."
She put the bird's nest and ginseng on the table.
The little girl is fair and beautiful, and her smile is bright, making it hard for people to dislike her.
"I've just finished eating my bird's nest. Thank you for your understanding. Please sit down quickly."
Song Jiaren greeted her gently.
This is the affirmation of the gift she gave.
Xiao Zhiyi sat down generously, without any formality or stage fright.
Xia Jingze looked at her performance and nodded secretly, yes, no wonder his brother-in-law wanted this girl to be his daughter-in-law.
"I heard from Xiaoyi that you also studied directing?
How old are you this year?”
Xia Jingze also talked to her.
"I will be a senior after the summer vacation. I went to school in Lucheng before. I went to Lucheng for my freshman and sophomore years, and I studied in the United States for my junior year."
Xiao Zhiyi answered and handed him the resume she had prepared.
Xia Jingze took the document bag and opened it and looked at it. Inside was a resume printed on A4 paper and a USB flash drive containing videos she had shot.
"Have you ever been an assistant director for Tom?"
When he saw this resume, Xia Jingze asked in surprise.
Tom is a famous American film director. He worked with Tom once and knew that the man was very demanding and extremely picky about the assistants and assistant directors who followed him. Most people could not get into his eyes.
Xiao Zhiyi said truthfully: "I just had a name, but in fact I just did some chores."
She spoke honestly, but Xia Jingze knew it was modesty. The chores the little girl mentioned were definitely not housekeeping.
Tom would definitely not give overly important shooting work to a college student, but even if he only gave her a few small shots, it was obvious that he recognized Xiao Zhiyi's ability.
Xia Jingze suddenly wanted to see with his own eyes how Xiao Zhiyi's photography talent was, so he called the servant over and asked the servant to go to the study to take down his notebook.
The maid quickly brought over the notebook. Xia Jingze inserted the USB flash drive into the computer, read it, and opened a shooting video inside.
This is a landscape video. Anyone who knows anything knows that scenery is more difficult to photograph than people. Photographing people can also enhance the sense of the shot by capturing movements and expressions, and increase the viewer's interest in watching.
The scenery is dead, it is difficult to capture its soul, and it is even harder to capture it objectively.
This is like taking photos. There are very few people who can take beautiful photos of flowers, trees and grass, but only true photography masters can capture the soul and magnificence of still life.
Xia Jingze can see the soul in Xiao Zhiyi's photography. She is very good at using different shooting techniques. They are diverse but not cumbersome. When combined together, they are very beautiful. Very few people can do this.
"This is a great shot, Jingze, better than any of your landscape shots."
Song Jiaren was full of praise for this video.
Xia Jingze nodded: "It's very good.
No wonder Tom gave you the title of assistant director. I only asked you to be an assistant. It’s too unfair for you.”
"I'm not wronged, I'm not wronged. It's my honor to study with you, Director Xia.
My video is also a trick, I am good at shooting scenes, but I still have many shortcomings in shooting people."
Xiao Zhiyi shook his head like a rattle.
Neither arrogant nor impetuous, and able to speak.
Xia Jingze liked this little girl even more and said with a smile: "Okay, you will report to the crew at eight o'clock tomorrow. This time the filming is a medical drama, and the filming location is Qihe Hospital.
If you don’t know the place, just ask Xiaoyi to take you there."
Just when Xiao Zhiyi was about to speak, Su Yi said first, "I'll see you off tomorrow."
In front of Song Jia and Xia Jingze, Xiao Zhiyi couldn't refuse Su Yi, so he could only nod his head and say thank you.
"Okay, now that we're done talking, we can start dinner."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Song Jiaren invited Xiao Zhiyi to have dinner.
Xia Huaijin didn't come back tonight, and they were the only couple at home. Su Yi and Xiao Zhiyi were also very happy to come over. This is how people get older, and they always like to have a lively meal.
During the meal, Xiao Zhiyi discovered that the Xia family had no rules and talked the same way during the meal. The uncle and nephew Su Yi and Xia Jingze had a very good relationship and often quarreled with each other. They were not like elders and juniors at all.
Song Jiaren also asked her to talk. Xiao Zhiyi was lively and cheerful, and soon he became familiar with Song Jiaren. The two women also talked about common topics.
Song Jiaren felt that this girl was really good. If Su Ye hadn't fallen in love with her first, she would have wanted to kidnap her back and become her daughter-in-law.
