Chapter 583 584【Experience life】
"Mr. Yuan, are you from the countryside? Or did you go to the countryside to experience life for this drama?" Sun Honglei asked curiously.
"I grew up in Xihong City, but my grandfather is from the countryside, and I often went back to the village to play when I was young. So this kind of work is not difficult for me." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Come on, let's eat noodles first, I There's still canned beef in the box, Tang Wei, go and get a piece to go with the meal."
"Thank you." Sun Honglei smiled and said, "Following you, I am really lucky."
After eating, Xiang Nan boiled another pot of water.
"The conditions in the countryside are not good, and taking a bath will be very troublesome. We can only make do with it and wipe it off with a hot towel." He taught Tang Wei and Sun Honglei, "Besides, you must wear good clothes if you want to go out. It's minus twenty-five now. You may catch a cold at any time. There is a shortage of doctors and medicines here, so if you are really going to get sick, just wait and suffer.”
Tang Wei and Sun Honglei nodded.
After wiping their bodies with hot water and scalding their feet, the three went to bed separately.
In the 1990s, there were not many households with heating in rural areas. Especially since Donggou is a poor mountain village, no one can afford heating. Heating is basically with kang.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan grew up in the countryside since he was a child, and he is no stranger to this kind of thing, so he quickly lit the kang, and the top of the kang was heated up, so the three of them fell asleep quickly. It wasn't too cold at night.
But Zhang Ziyi, Ji Bo, Song Yuncheng and others who grew up in the city suffered. They didn't know how to use the kang, and they didn't add a fire to the kang hole.
As a result, the heated kang under my body was icy cold. Even if I put on all my clothes and covered myself with a quilt, I still couldn't resist the severe cold and shivered.
On the first night of arriving in Donggou, more than a dozen people caught a cold.
Eat a ditch, gain a wisdom, they later understand the usage of the rural kang, and they can't help but sigh.
…
After the crew settled in Donggou Village, they started filming soon.
After starting the machine, Xiang Nan and Zhang Ziyi were first arranged to eat, live and work together in the hometown of fellow villagers to experience a month of rural life.
Xiang Nan expressed his understanding of this.
When filming "Red Sorghum" and "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", Gong Li was also arranged to experience life in the countryside; when Zhang Yimou starred in "Old Well", he also went to the village to eat, live and work with farmers, waiting for the filming to start. At that time, he was no different from a real farmer.
Xiang Nan followed Zhang Ziyi to the fellow's house.
Carrying water, cooking stoves, cooking, feeding pigs, feeding chickens, chopping firewood, raking grass... Xiang Nan is no stranger to rural work, and he quickly integrated into the local life.
Zhang Ziyi, on the other hand, has never experienced such hardship since he was a child, and he was very uncomfortable for a while.
For example, using a pole to carry well water, two buckets of water weighs about 30 catties, and she can't carry it at all. Standing up together, the shoulders hurt from the weight of the shoulder pole.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan specially put an extra towel on her shoulders, "Try again, if it doesn't work, first pick an empty bucket and add weight slowly. Anyway, we have a month of experience time, we should Enough."
"No, that time is too slow, I must master it as soon as possible, and I can't be too delicate." Zhang Ziyi shook his head and said.
She is an unsafe heroine. It is said that at that time Zhang Yimou went to the Chinese opera to choose an actor, and the original choice was her classmate Zeng Lai. It's just that Zhang Yimou had no choice but to use her because he was away from school that day.
If she acts arrogant and coquettish again when experiencing life, I'm afraid Director Zhang will really change her. After all, her film has not yet started filming, and even if she is compensated, she will only be given tens of thousands of dollars. Director Zhang can fully bear this loss.
So she threw the towel to Xiang Nan, then took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and picked up the pole. Then he walked home with a sigh of relief.
Xiang Nan saw that her body was crooked under the weight of the pole, her face was pale and her lips were purple, so she knew she must be in pain.
Carrying water on a shoulder pole is really not easy. The weight of dozens of catties is on one shoulder, and you have to wait until the calluses are worn out so that you don't feel pain.
Zhang Ziyi was born as a dancer in elementary school, with delicate skin and tender flesh, he is really waiting to get calloused, I don’t know how many layers of skin he will have to shed.
Sure enough, when it was time to eat at night, Zhang Ziyi couldn't lift half of his arm, and made a hissing sound of breathing in from time to time.
"Is your shoulder swollen? Would you like me to take a look for you~" Seeing this, Xiang Nan asked with concern.
Zhang Ziyi nodded.
She followed Xiang Nan into the room, and slowly opened several openings on the top of the padded jacket, and then exposed her shoulders.
The most important lesson for those who learn to dance and perform is to liberate their nature and themselves. This level of dew is really nothing to an artist. They wore low dresses, backless dresses, more revealing than that.
Xiang Nan took a look and was shocked.
I saw that her right shoulder was red and swollen, and even showed signs of bleeding.
"What's the matter, is it serious?" Zhang Ziyi also turned his head to look at it, but he couldn't see it clearly.
"It is indeed a bit serious, but fortunately I am prepared." Xiang Nan nodded, and then took out Nanyun Baiyao and iodophor from the box.
"Hold on, I'll help you debride the wound first, and then apply the medicine for you~" Xiang Nan explained, then dipped a cotton swab with iodophor, and wiped the wound for her to reduce inflammation and antibacterial.
"Hiss~" Zhang Ziyi gasped as the cotton swab wiped the wound.
"Why, my hands are too heavy?" Seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly lifted up the cotton swab.
"No, the potion is too cold." Zhang Ziyi smiled awkwardly.
Xiang Nan also smiled, gently wiped the wound clean for her, and then applied Nanyun Baiyao on her, "It should be much better tomorrow."
"Thank you, Yuan Shuai!" Zhang Ziyi said gratefully.
"You're welcome, you should help each other." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.
Zhang Ziyi nodded.
…
In the next month, Xiang Nan helped Zhang Ziyi many times.
For example, when she walked up the mountain to hug grass, her hands were scratched by grass leaves and branches, and he used a Band-Aid to help her treat the wound; The big goose grabbed her; she was accidentally splashed with oil while cooking, and her hands were burnt with small blisters, which he helped to pop open and then apply the medicine...
Helping here and there, the relationship between the two has also improved by leaps and bounds.
Just when Xiang Nan was about to take Zhang Ziyi down, Miao Pu suddenly came to Donggou by car.
"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you not to come?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.
"I miss you, let's come and see you." Miao Pu stomped his feet and said, the spring on the dam is really too cold.
The temperature in Yanjing is almost above freezing, but here it is still more than ten degrees below zero, which is almost fatal.
"And you said, come to see me, I don't know how to wear thicker clothes." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "If you really get sick from the cold, then I will feel so bad. All right, come with me into the house."
"Shuai Yuan, this is..." Zhang Ziyi looked at Miao Pu and asked in surprise.
"This is my girlfriend, Miao Pu." Xiang Nan introduced with a smile.
"..." Zhang Ziyi was shocked.
Thanks to the book friend Mo Xueyiyun for the reward, thank you!
