Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs-Chapter 389: You're Such a Slut
Looking at Little Bei, Ji Buwang leaned closer to Mu Jingzhe and whispered, "Little Bei is still the same."
"Mm." Mu Jingzhe's voice seemed to contain a smile. Her life had become rich and colorful because of the children, especially Little Bei.
After all sorts of dialects had appeared at home last time, lines from period movies and television dramas started appearing now.
Little Bei was already in discussions about her next drama, and barring any incidents, it would be a period drama. Because this drama was set in the Republic of China, the characters spoke in a genteel manner, so Little Bei had started speaking like the ancients lately.
Period dramas were different from modern dramas. Not only were the characters' clothes different, but their way of speaking was also different. One had to learn how to speak in that manner in order to sound natural.
Recently, Little Bei had been practicing as much as she could, so her daily conversations had also changed. She had replaced the modern versions of 'I', 'you', 'why', 'how', 'very', and 'say' with their ancient versions in her daily conversations.
When she was in the mood, she would speak like this, looking especially dignified, just as she looked now. She even took a class on classical etiquette specifically for this reason.
Mu Jingzhe felt that Little Bei was currently even qualified to portray a little princess.
When Little Bei saw Mu Jingzhe looking at her, she tilted her head slightly and looked over. She was as dignified as ever, but her gaze was questioning. Mu Jingzhe quickly asked, "Are you full?"
Ji Buwang almost burst out laughing when he heard that. Little Bei almost couldn't keep her composure as well. Mu Jingzhe saw his expression and said, "What are you laughing at? You wouldn't sound much better saying it."
It wasn't like she had said, "You're such a slut."
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Shao Dong and Shao Xi went to look for Shao Qihai and went to bed with him.
Before Shao Qihai took Little Bei to the production team, he confirmed the next movie and signed the contract. It was that period drama after all.
This period piece wasn't a movie but a television drama. Filming a television drama might take longer, but the script was excellent and Little Bei's role was also very good, so they still signed.
At the time, there wasn't an obvious distinction between movie actors and television drama actors. Besides, many actors in the modern era also acted in both movies and television dramas. Little Bei didn't have to only act in movies. Her first production had been, in fact, a television drama.
Afraid that Little Bei and Shao Qihai wouldn't be used to it, after some hesitation, the worried Mu Jingzhe decided to follow them to the production team for two days. She only left the production team after Shao Qihai slowly adapted.
Mu Jingzhe didn't go with Little Bei, but she still stayed in Ocean City. Other than customizing costumes in the studio, she also handled fashion design. The television drama Little Bei has signed a contract with actively sought a cooperation with Mu Jingzhe because they had long learned of Mu Jingzhe's ability and sense of responsibility from their peers in the industry.
When she was in charge of the costumes and makeup, the effect produced was always pleasing to the eye. Even her earliest work three years ago was still not outdated and continued to look good. This was very important.
Typically, very few television movies could cross time and space so that, no matter the current aesthetic standards, people would still find them beautiful.
Other than the fact that Mu Jingzhe's designs were progressive, there was also the fact that she had seen many modern designs. Why some characters became classics was one of her main points of focus.
She had already received information about each of the actors. After meeting all the main actors, she started designing.
However, this process wasn't fast, as Mu Jingzhe had to undergo a period of learning in the early stages. Professional fashion designers, especially those who dabbled in ancient costumes, generally had to know some basic history. Even if they didn't know anything, they had to learn. They had to learn a bit, as they couldn't be ignorant.
Mu Jingzhe was very meticulous. The clothes she designed not only had to be suitable for the individual actors, but they also had to look good when the characters came together. The main characters' costumes had a hint of mystery about them. One could guess their identity and personality based on their clothes.
With their different identities, colors, and styles, the clothes had to match each character's personality to enhance the plot. The same applied to the makeup.
The number of designs in Mu Jingzhe's notebook slowly increased. After she met the director, the director was very satisfied and said that engaging her would be worth it.
Mu Jingzhe also enjoyed this feeling, as it felt as if all her effort was worth it. She felt that her work was very meaningful and often immersed herself in it until she was woken up by the children. Xiao Wu came the most, as well as Ji Buwang.
For some reason, Xiao Wu also started to get interested in Shao Nan's book. After reading it, he even said that he would go out to collect folk songs. He wasn't afraid of the heat and would run out every day. Sometimes, he would disappear for a long time.
However, he kept sticking to Mu Jingzhe's side when she came back. He was still the same clingy Xiao Wu.
As long as Ji Buwang was in Ocean City and had time, he would come to pick Mu Jingzhe up. Every day, he would give her a popsicle, other than the few days when it was inconvenient for her. She had no idea how Ji Buwang found out. In any case, he was quite attentive and considerate.
During this special period, he didn't ride a bicycle anymore. Instead, he drove there. He didn't say it explicitly, but the two of them had a tacit understanding.
Mu Jingzhe felt embarrassed and pleased at the same time.
This summer, the things that left the deepest impression on Mu Jingzhe were the cold popsicles she received every day, as well as the hot and cool wind and the lively cicadas.
The cicadas kept chirping non-stop.
Sometimes, they would even scream at night. The kids wanted to catch them, but they didn't succeed. In the end, it was Ji Buwang who helped them do it.
During the summer, the five kids' skin had become much darker because they were all riding bicycles, including Xiao Wu. However, it couldn't be denied that this was their most peaceful and comfortable summer ever.
Perhaps it was because it was so quiet and comfortable, but Mu Jingzhe's feelings for Ji Buwang had indeed changed. Previously, she had always said that she didn't have time. This time, with Ji Buwang by her side, that feeling slowly changed.
Ji Buwang didn't say much, nor did Mu Jingzhe, but the two of them tacitly understood that something had changed.
Only the two of them could comprehend such a feeling.
Before school reopened at the end of August, Mu Jingzhe brought the children back to the county city. Two days after they returned, the night before school reopened, Shao Qihai finally returned with Little Bei.
They had rushed to finish filming Little Bei's scenes. This time, she started school at the same time as the other kids.
Little Bei, Shao Dong, Shao Xi, and Xiao Wu didn't skip a grade this time. Previously, they had wanted to learn as soon as possible, but now, all of them were busy, so they didn't intend to skip a grade. If nothing went wrong, they would follow the pre-set grade order.
Only Shao Nan skipped a grade. He planned to get through junior high school as soon as possible and go to university. Only by going to university could he undergo systematic learning.
This time, Little Bei didn't follow him. The twin siblings used to sit together, but they finally separated now. It was normal for Shao Nan, though, as he had been constantly learning.
Although staying with the children filled her heart with warmth, Mu Jingzhe still experienced the relaxed feeling of having her children finally go to school after a vacation.
After sending the kids to school, Mu Jingzhe decided to look for Li Zhaodi to play the role of a child herself.
