Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

It's a pity that Chapter 69 is missing.
"What are you thinking? After I sign with Big Fish Media, I'll have Lin Lang keep all the money I make as your termination fee."

Bing Ning was speechless at Shen An'an's wild imagination.

How much does it cost to sleep with someone? If I were to calculate based on Shen An'an's price, it would be millions in breach of contract fees. How long would I have to keep paying for that?

However, Lin Lang is young... so it's not necessarily true.

Anyway, Shen An'an isn't in a hurry to terminate the contract right now; she'll talk about it when the contract is actually terminated.

Half an hour later, Shen An'an drove her to Dayu Media, where Lin Lang had also brought a lot of things.

There were also two small blackboards and such...

On the way, Lin Lang sent a message to Yun Yiyi, saying that he was going back to his hometown first and would contact her again after they arrived.

In the car, Lin Lang discussed some specific details with Bing Ning. The main issue was that there weren't any particularly good references on the internet right now; otherwise, he could have just let Bing Ning follow other people's pace.

He had to instill his own ideas into Bing Ning's brain.

He was definitely responsible for paying for the villa; what he told his parents was mainly to make it easier for them to accept.

According to Lin Lang's plan, after the New Year, his parents would no longer need to work in the county town. They probably wouldn't be used to living in a house in the county town anyway, so it would be better to go back to their hometown, where they have more relatives and friends and can also tend to some farmland.

He knew very well that his parents were restless people; in their past life in Shanghai, they couldn't stand living there for even a few days.

If you want them to have some free time, the only options besides having them hold their grandchildren are to find them some light work.

Lin Lang hasn't thought about the former yet, so he can only look for the latter solution: building them a villa in his hometown is undoubtedly the best option.

After chatting for a while, Shen An'an, who was driving, suddenly asked, "Lin Lang, Bingjie's contract, it wasn't expensive, was it?"

"It's not expensive. The first round of filming will cost at most two million."

"Oh, that's alright then."

Shen An'an felt that she could help Bing Ning pay off the debt.

She knew exactly what Bing Ning wanted, but Bing Ning didn't want to owe anyone. If the contract amounted to tens of millions, even if she begged her parents, she couldn't get that much money.

As for the money she earned from Bitcoin? She had already agreed to lend it to Lin Lang, so it naturally didn't count as hers and couldn't be taken into account.

Half an hour later, we arrived at Xigang Town.

Shen An'an wasn't driving fast, and it was a rural road.

When Lin Lang was a child, he once rode in a minibus back to his hometown. The minibus was packed with sixteen or seventeen people, and the entire journey of eighteen kilometers was completed in just twelve minutes.

That was the first time he felt that his hometown was so close to the county town, considering that it would take more than forty minutes to get there by bus.

Upon arriving at his old family home, Lin Lang opened the door and led the two inside.

The house was a mess, with things piled up everywhere. There were even Lin Lang's childhood toys and clothes inside.

Ms. Xu has this kind of personality; she believes that anything might come in handy in the future, so she resolutely refuses to throw anything away.

"Sister Bing, apart from this altar, everything else will be thrown away later. Although the current construction area here is only a little over 100 square meters, there is actually another 100 square meters or so within the homestead area, which adds up to more than 200 square meters."

When Lin Lang's family was allocated their homestead, they were given two rooms, each measuring six meters wide and eighteen meters long.

The two plots of land total over 200 square meters. However, due to lack of funds in the past, only two rooms were built in the front, at least to make the facade look presentable.

As for the vegetable garden behind Ms. Xu's house, it is behind the homestead and does not have the attributes of a homestead.

That vegetable garden of over 300 square meters can be converted into a yard. If no one pursues the matter later, that's fine. But if someone does, just demolish it.

In addition, there is a space about seven or eight meters away from the roadside in front, which can be converted into a front yard.

The core building was located on the original homestead. Shen An'an picked up a child's garment and asked, "Lin Lang, isn't this one of the open-crotch pants you wore when you were little?"

"You didn't wear this when you were little?"

“Yes, I wore it. My mom kept it for me. You really have the heart to throw it away? It’s obviously made by your mom herself…”

Lin Lang: "..."

He wasn't interested in these things at first; he just wanted to make room so that there wouldn't be a lot of clutter later.

After Shen An'an said that, I suddenly felt really reluctant to part with it.

In the era when he was born, diapers and the like were simply not available in rural areas, and it was impossible to buy dozens of sets of clothes a year like it is now.

At that time, almost all of China's light industry was exported, and clothing in China was not cheap, often costing tens of yuan a set, while my father's monthly salary was only about five hundred yuan.

So when he was a child, all his clothes were made by his mother, Ms. Xu, who bought the fabric, grew the cotton, and sewed them little by little with a sewing machine.

Bingning said, "I'll organize these things and put them away specifically for you. It would be a real shame to lose them."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Sister Bing."

The two rooms are not large, consisting of only four parts. The front door section has an altar directly opposite it, and there is another door next to it, but it is never opened, purely for the sake of looking grand. There are some miscellaneous items and a square table there.

The back part consists of a master bedroom and a secondary bedroom. The master bedroom belongs to his parents, and the secondary bedroom was originally prepared for him, but he only lived there for a few years before moving to the county town.

These two rooms cost my parents nearly 20,000 yuan to build.

At that time, they thought that if they could build two bungalows in town, their son would never have to worry about not finding a wife. However, the times were developing too fast, and they were constantly being swept along by the tide of the times.

The elderly couple had already gone to great lengths just to receive a slightly better education.

If Ms. Xu hadn't been so stingy and miserly, her family's meager income wouldn't have been enough to cover what others could afford by drinking two bottles of wine.

Soon, they saw the vegetable garden, which was now overgrown with weeds. Ms. Xu had even collected a lot of broken tiles and bricks to fence off the garden, so that no one would come to steal her vegetables.

The lush weeds have completely submerged the wall.

Bingning brought a ruler and wrote down all the overall dimensions.

After being busy for more than an hour, Lin Lang received a phone call and took the two of them to the school.

When they arrived at the primary school, Qin Haiyang and Yun Yiyi were already waiting for them.

Because it was Saturday, there was no one at the school.

Lin Lang and Yun Yi went to her residence and then began to discuss the content of the home visit.

The essence of these daily accounts is actually to peep into other people's lives, either seeking resonance or seeking comfort. There's not much to film on Saturdays and Sundays.

As for the selection of home visitors, there were specific considerations. Lin Lang spent a full hour asking around, getting all the information from the kindergarten's student list.

When Shen An'an first saw Lin Lang at work, she was struck by his dedication and seriousness; he considered every little detail.

They didn't set off until Yun Yiyi fully understood the situation.

The core of this shoot was hardship.

Nothing in the world resonates more with people than suffering.

Families who are still willing to leave their children in rural primary schools at this time either do not value their children's education enough or have limited financial resources.

The latter accounted for the vast majority.
