After Chu Xiaoyi returned to work, he was a little lost for a few days, and his mother's words lingered in his mind. He flipped through his phone, only to find that his mother had never contacted him in recent years, and he didn't even notice it. Chu Jiadong occasionally sent a message to greet him, but Xiao Bi never did that, and of course he never sent a message to his mother.
Chu Xiaoyi: Raising me is indeed better than raising a piece of barbecued pork.
Chu Xiaoyi couldn't help showing a wry smile, he told them to stop worrying about themselves, she did keep her promise. During the Spring Festival, the most emotional moment of Chu Xiaoyi was not arguing with his father, but communicating with his mother in the study. She spoke slowly, but her words were full of blades.
Xiao Bi has a trace of resentment towards her eldest son, because she has never been ashamed of Chu Xiaoyi, so she is even more unable to accept his actions. As a mother, she just kept all her emotions under the calm water, but Chu Xiaoyi never noticed it.
Chu Xiaoyi can blame his father, but he can't blame his mother. He always wanted to cut off the news at home, even ignoring his mother's body, almost becoming a man like his father. He may be worse than his father, at least his father was the breadwinner of the family back then, but now the family doesn't need his money.
Chu Jiadong is now in charge of housework, taking care of his younger sister, and repaying Xiao Bi's efforts in the family, but how should Chu Xiaoyi repay his mother? He seems to always ignore the gentle and low-key mother, and even occasionally sits her with his father
Only now did he gradually understand Chu Xiaoxiao's thoughts. She said that everyone in the family had their own division of labor and contributed to the family in different ways, but he had actually left the family unit in a sense and was no longer counted as one of them. He doesn't participate in family activities at all, what qualifications does he have to vote on major family decisions
He has been separated from his family for five years, which means that he has not paid for five years, and he does not even know if he is a family member. Even when he returned home, he was like a drop of oil in clear water. It didn't look very different, but it couldn't be blended.
Chu Xiaoyi thought about this and sighed deeply. He can live in harmony with his sister, because their relationship is new and simple, and there is no need to worry about anything, but it is difficult for him to get along with his parents, and the memory line is tightly wrapped around the three of them, making people breathless.
He Xin, the agent, heard the artist sigh and wondered, "What's wrong?"
Chu Xiaoyi lay down on the back of the chair and muttered, "It's nothing, I just think I suck."
He hoped that he could do things well. At first, he tried to control his emotions when he came home, but he fell short before leaving and smashed everything to smithereens. In front of outsiders, he can still control his proportions, but in front of his family, he is irritable and irritable, making it impossible for people to look directly at him.
He Xin looked at Chu Xiaoyi in surprise, as if he couldn't believe it, but felt that the sun was coming out from the west. He patted the other person on the shoulder reassuringly, and said with relief: "You have a self-knowledge, but you have a bad personality, and your business ability is quite good."
He Xin: If it wasn't for your good aptitude, who would tolerate you as a goddess.
Chu Xiaoyi: "..." His manager is good at everything, but he doesn't know how to speak, and he is in the same line as himself
Seeing that Chu Xiaoyi had recovered, He Xin handed the screen of his mobile phone to the other party and said, "Why don't you come and see your serialized gossip, there are new arrangements on the forum?"
He Xin showed Chu Xiaoyi an entertainment forum page, the content of which was simply described as yin and yang, chasing wind and shadow. In the post, someone said that Chu Xiao Yiyin gave birth to a daughter in marriage, and took the girl to a well-known luxury store in the city, and the counter lady heard that the child seemed to be surnamed Chu.
In fact, the shopping guides were just chatting about celebrities they saw in their spare time. Chu Xiaoxiao made a lot of noise in the store at that time, which naturally attracted attention. Chu Xiaoyi also called his sister's name in public, and their real names are very similar, which is even more exposed.
This was originally a cute anecdote, and the shopping guides didn't mention the relationship between the two, but the sunspots said it was a hidden marriage and a daughter, anyway, let's talk about it first.
Although Chu Xiaoyi is 23 years old this year, he occasionally feels that he is still a baby. Who would have thought that one day he would be forced to give birth to a daughter
Chu Xiaoyi asked dumbfounded: "Are they sick? I'm only twenty-three years old this year, how can I give birth to a three-and-a-half-year-old daughter? National laws don't allow it?"
Mainland China's marriage law stipulates that men cannot marry earlier than the age of 22. Chu Xiaoyi felt that even if he wanted to hack him, he should have logic, at least he should understand the math
He Xin gloated and said: "Very good, then it's time to blacken your unmarried daughter, and the problem has become more serious."
"..." Chu Xiaoyi waved his hands distractedly, "What's the mess, get someone to delete it quickly!"
Celebrities have their own marketing and public relations teams. As long as the capital is in place, they can directly control the market and silently remove bad posts. However, the things on the gossip forums can't make a big wave. Basically, no one will believe such outrageous black posts. Many celebrities are not bothered by their eyes, and they are too lazy to spend money to get rid of them.
He Xin didn't expect that Chu Xiaoyi asked to delete the post, and the other party had no intention of taking action in the face of more ruthless smears before. He said in surprise: "Do you really want to delete it? You had an affair with a male star before, but you didn't ask us to end. There shouldn't be any secrets, right?"
"Actually, it's okay to have this black post. It's a disguised proof of your sexual orientation. Maybe you can use this to untie your opponent..." He Xin lazily joked while arranging work for the team and deleting the post. He has seen Chu Xiaoyi has too many outrageous black posts, and it is not a big deal to have a daughter in a hidden marriage, so there is really no need to worry about it.
Chu Xiaoyi: "You can pull it down! That's my sister, can it be the same!?"
Chu Xiaoyi used to be too lazy to deal with black posts, and he could bear it in his heart, but it was not as bad as his family. Since his debut, he has protected his family information very well, never letting outsiders spy on his privacy, and he knows the horror of excessive fans.
He Xin has long been aware of the artist's habits, and regretted: "It's a pity, I originally came into contact with a variety show that is about family affection, and I think it's very suitable for you..."
He Xin deliberately showed Chu Xiaoyi the post on the entertainment forum, just to test the other party's attitude, wondering if he would loosen up after returning home.
Chu Xiaoyi refused: "Don't even think about it, I won't use my family to entertain the public!"
Chu Xiaoyi clearly distinguishes his work and life, and maintains a clear boundary with his fans, which even causes many fans to turn black. Because he is sometimes too calm and vigilant, so radical fans can't feel the response, in other words, he won't flatter or abuse fans.
But this is not to blame for Chu Xiaoyi. If he could learn the tricks of fangirling, and deal with the family relationship 800 years ago, why would he have a trouble with Chu Jiadong? He's just not good at being small and low, and he often speaks hard, and the number of fans depends entirely on his face and strength.
Chu Xiaoyi: Anyway, I didn't have the strength in the same period, mainly because my peers set off well.
Chu Xiaoyi has suffered from the pressure of being famous on the talent show, and has been smeared by the capital of his family. Naturally, he knows the weight of the outside world's attention. He can withstand the darkness after the flash, but doesn't want to involve his family in it all.
He Xin regretted: "Well then..."
In the Yurong Terrace, Chu Xiaoxiao was sitting in the tea room in the small courtyard of his family, and he was a little dejected. She felt that the cheap brother was like a stray cat outside. There was a cathouse specially built but he didn't come back. He insisted on dangling outdoors. Is it because he was afraid of being caught and sterilized by the community
In fact, she didn't want to think about Chu Xiaoyi all the time, but there was nothing else to distract her recently, which made her extremely helpless.
"Xiao Xiao."
Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly heard herself being called. She looked around blankly and found Liang Shuangqi outside the glass room of the tea room. She hurriedly leaned over to the window of the tea room, where it was better to hear the sounds outside.
The little boy didn't walk the cat today. He was wearing a light-colored down jacket and carrying an oversized piano case that was taller than himself. He waved to her solemnly: "Are you making mushrooms in the greenhouse?"
The tea room is a beautiful glass room that transmits light. Chu Xiaoxiao, dressed in goose-yellow home clothes, squatted on a wooden bench, really like a small tender mushroom. But she may be a mushroom with thoughts, sighing all the time.
Chu Xiaoxiao: Life is not easy, Gugu sighed.
Chu Xiaoxiao put on her coat, she ran outside the tea room, opened the iron gate of the small courtyard for Liang Shuangqi, and invited the other party to come in and sit.
In the tea room, Liang Shuangqi put down the huge piano box with great effort, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that he was alive. He explained: "My dad just went to run some errands and asked me to wait for him where I was when I came over."
Chu Xiaoxiao said in surprise: "Is it not cold outside?"
Liang Shuangqi: "He doesn't feel cold, maybe he has thick skin, but I still feel cold."
Liang Shuangqi had just returned from the hobby class. He and his father both walked to the half-center of the community, but his father suddenly turned back to the door to do errands and asked him to wait there for a while. Liang Shuangqi's father used to be a soldier. Naturally, he didn't think that the boy would be in trouble if the cold wind blows for a while, and he would come back soon.
Liang Shuangqi is not stupid. He found that this place was very close to Chu Xiaoxiao's house, so he walked slowly and happened to meet her.
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at the piano case on the chair curiously and asked, "What is this?"
Liang Shuangqi: "My cello."
Chu Xiaoxiao showed admiration: "Are you going to be a musician in the future?"
"No, this is what my mother told me to learn." Liang Shuangqi said solemnly, "I don't want to be a musician, I want to be Jack Ma in the future."
Chu Xiaoxiao heard the words even more admiration, and couldn't help but clapped his little hands.
Liang Shuangqi remembered Chu Xiaoxiao's depressed face, and asked, "Why were you listless just now?"
Chu Xiaoxiao simply told the other party about his troubles, the little boy tilted his head and had no idea for a while. Liang Shuangqi is an only child. He doesn't understand the feeling of having a brother, so he can't make good suggestions for the time being. He didn't understand what was so sad about his brother's loss, otherwise he would post a missing person notice
Liang Shuangqi simply changed the subject and suggested, "Can I play a tune for you?"
Chu Xiaoxiao: "Okay, do I need to use your piano?"
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at the huge piano case, she had never seen such a huge musical instrument before, and was at a loss for a moment.
Liang Shuangqi took out a woolen thread from his pocket, and he fixed both ends of it to one side of the wooden table, forming a tight state, and said, "Don't need that, that's boring."
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at his movements with novelty, and Liang Shuangqi took out a strange little piece of wood from his pocket, used it to lift up the tight wool, and moved it left and right to tune. He found a small wooden stick at random, fiddled with the straight wool, and it made a crisp sound!
Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened in disbelief. She didn't expect that the woolen thread could really snap, and the sounds made by different positions were different!
After Liang Shuangqi finished the tuning session, he strummed the wool with a wooden stick freely, and it actually made a lively piece. Chu Xiaoxiao had only seen musical instruments before, but where did he see wool playing? At the end of the song, she immediately gave a warm applause and looked at the woolen musician in front of her with bright eyes.
Liang Shuangqi said humbly, "I'll play you with a calculator next time."
Liang Shuangqi: Everything can be played, except the cello.
"Liang Shuangqi, come out for me!"
The two children were happily playing with wool, but there was a violent male voice outside the tea room. Chu Xiaoxiao turned his head and saw an uncle rushing angrily. He looked in through the glass, staring at Liang Shuangqi with burning eyes, and he looked breathless.
Liang Shuangqi introduced: "My dad is here."
Liang Chen was furious and said, "You run around and don't send me a message?"
Chu Xiaoxiao was a little worried, but Liang Shuangqi said calmly: "I am letting you do a military exercise to test your ability to act after losing your child. Can you say hello in advance?"
Liang Chen: "You can't say hello in advance during the exercise, but I can call you in advance!"
Chu Xiaoxiao said dissatisfiedly: "It's wrong to beat a child."
Liang Shuangqi calmly picked up the cello and reassured: "Don't worry Xiao Xiao, if he dares to hit me, I will call the police. If he is caught and imprisoned, I will come to your house to be your brother, and you don't need to be discouraged."
Chu Xiaoxiao thought about it seriously, she didn't think it was impossible, Liang Shuangqi could at least play wool and calculators.
Liang Chen did not rush into the small courtyard at home, but waited for his son to come out at the door of the courtyard. His attitude towards Chu Xiaoxiao was quite friendly, and he said warmly, "I will be a guest at my uncle's house another day, and my uncle will cook you meat!"
Chu Xiaoxiao felt the upward energy of the sun in Liang Chen, so he no longer had too much resistance to what he said just now. Anyway, his uncle hadn't been in prison yet, so it proved that he hadn't done anything for the time being
Chu Xiaoxiao watched the father and son leave, and she went back to the tea room to fiddle with the yarn left by Liang Shuangqi and played it loudly. She can also strum the wool, but she can't make a tune, but it's a good relief.
Chu Xiaoyi had already asked He Xin to decline the variety show, but he didn't expect the chief director of "Our Family" to come to lobby in person, and the invitation intention was extremely strong. Director Li has produced many well-known and explosive variety shows, and maintains good relations with major TV stations and online platforms. He is also a big name in the industry.
Even if Chu Xiaoyi didn't want to appear on the show, he had to meet Director Li and politely shirk it.
Chu Xiaoyi politely said: "Director Li, I'm really sorry, but I don't really want to expose my family. I know your team is very good, but because of this, the show is very easy to explode, which may seriously affect my parents' lives..."
"My mother is a high school teacher. She still needs to teach at school. In fact, it's not easy to get too much attention. Do you understand? My sister is also very young now, and the outside world may have an impact on her childhood."
Director Li touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Because you have had bad experiences on talent shows, you are now vigilant about variety shows. Can I understand that?"
Chu Xiaoyi pondered for a few seconds, then simply replied: "Yes, I hope you can understand."
Director Li said calmly: "If we put aside the factor of the show, let's not mention whether to participate or not, and just talk about it? What do you think about your family or family?"
Chu Xiaoyi didn't expect the director to ask such a question, he hesitated for a while and fell into silence, not knowing how to answer.
