With her grandmother helping to oversee things, Li Tian couldn't be happier.
After a short Sunday, another busy week begins.
Following the routine, living a life of routine.
Very regular.
On Saturday night, Chen Yufei called and told me the time and place of the audition.
Ye Zhao said she would send Li Tian over on time.
After hearing about it, Li Muchen also wanted to go and see.
His teacher went out to compete this Sunday, so there was no need to attend class.
Ye Zhao didn't stop him from going to take a look.
You're either at home or at school all day; you should go out for a walk and relax.
The next day, after breakfast, Ye Zhao took her handsome grandson and her beautifully dressed granddaughter out the door.
When they arrived, Chen Yufei was already waiting at the entrance.
They were grateful for Ye Zhao's help to them and their child.
Chen Yufei was exceptionally warm towards Ye Zhao, yet not in a way that was off-putting.
He chatted and joked with Li Tian for a bit, which made him seem extremely friendly and casual.
Chen Yufei was somewhat dazed when she looked at Li Muchen.
It's as if Jia Baoyu from the book has come to the modern era.
The young boy had a handsome face, and a cool and noble demeanor.
"Senior sister, this is my cousin, Li Muchen."
After regaining her senses, Chen Yufei greeted him with a smile.
Then he led them inside.
I saw quite a few young actors along the way.
They were all young and beautiful.
Occasionally, I would see a male actor, who was always refined and handsome.
Fearing that Ye Zhao would have to wait too long, Chen Yufei arranged a number for Li Tian in advance.
While Li Tian was preparing, Chen Yufei approached the director.
He only mentioned seeing a young version of Jia Baoyu and asked if they needed the role.
During the preliminary selection process, it's natural to look at several candidates and compare them.
The director agreed to take a look first.
If your image isn't up to par, there's no point in discussing anything further.
Chen Yufei didn't bring the director closer; she just pointed him out from a distance.
The young man was polite, with delicate features, and exuded a scholarly air, along with an undeniable air of refined nobility.
"Xiao Chen, you have a good eye. Let that boy give it a try."
Chen Yufei smiled.
"The young Daiyu he recommended to me happens to be my cousin. What a coincidence!"
It really was fate.
"Then let them try it together. You take Teacher Wu to give them acting instructions."
Teacher Wu was also busy, but the director instructed her to follow Chen Yufei to Li Tian and her brother's side.
Upon hearing that he had to act, Li Muchen waved his hands repeatedly.
He's just here to have fun.
Li Tian, however, thought Li Muchen could give it a try.
"Brother, just think of it as keeping me company while I act."
Since Li Tian had spoken, Li Muchen naturally wouldn't refuse, thinking he was just doing Li Tian a favor by standing there for a while.
Ye Zhao didn't say anything else, but simply offered a few words of encouragement to the two children.
Teacher Wu's role mainly lies in analyzing the characters and plot, and pointing out the characters' mindset at this time.
Both Li Tian and Li Muchen have read Dream of the Red Chamber and are familiar with the story.
But when it comes to actually performing, you still need to prepare your emotions.
Only by fully empathizing can one portray that feeling.
There aren't many emotional parts for Jia Baoyu, and not many words are used; he only expresses his joy at suddenly seeing a fairy sister.
Daiyu's inner thoughts are complex.
The eyes are also crucial; they must convey a sense of extreme caution, as if afraid to say or take an extra step.
The makeup artist led the two inside for a quick makeover.
She wore a theatrical costume and a simple wig.
It has a touch of the ancients' style.
The two of them stood there, and they actually looked quite convincing.
Li Muchen looked at the different Li Tian and was still somewhat dazed.
But Li Tian's tone changed completely when she spoke.
Although the voice was gentle, it was full of energy.
Moreover, no matter how meek and submissive one is, one cannot portray the inherently weak and delicate nature of Lin Daiyu.
The director called for a stop several times.
Li Muchen surprised many people, except for his voice which was affected by puberty.
The director called Chen Yufei over.
"Xiao Chen, let the two kids go home first. We'll think about whether they need it or not."
It means that they can be kept as a backup, but if there are better options, they will not be used.
The appearance is fine, but it's not the most suitable for the role.
Chen Yufei didn't say anything else, she just wanted to take Li Tian out for some fun.
Her boyfriend, he also has no intention of acting.
If you have no expectations, you won't be disappointed.
Upon receiving news from Chen Yufei, Ye Zhao left with the two children.
After all that fuss, it was almost noon.
So I didn't go to the mall to browse around anymore.
"Grandma, why were siblings allowed to marry in ancient times? Is it still possible now?"
Ye Zhao's heart skipped a beat.
But he showed no sign of panic.
She knew the child was simply asking a question.
What we need to do now is provide guidance, not blame.
"The ancients believed that this was a way to strengthen family ties, but modern medicine has proven that the offspring of consanguineous marriages are more likely to have genetic diseases."
"Including those with dementia."
"From the perspective of eugenics and ethics, marriage between close relatives is absolutely prohibited."
Li Tian glanced at the young man next to Ye Zhao.
Could it be that this is just a teenager experiencing the first stirrings of love, having wild fantasies?
Was there anything wrong with her behavior?
Nothing.
Li Muchen asked the question out of curiosity, and then felt a little guilty after asking it.
Moreover, you can sense a subtle change in the atmosphere inside the car.
Could it be?
Not really.
He treated Li Tian like a younger sister.
"Grandma, I was just asking casually, I didn't mean anything by it."
Ye Zhao smiled and patted her grandson on the shoulder.
"Literary works are limited by their historical context. In Cao Xueqin's time, marriage between cousins was in line with social reality and was accepted by the public."
"But as human understanding has progressed, we have become aware of the drawbacks, and there is now a consensus against consanguineous marriage."
Ye Zhao looked at her two children who were growing up day by day.
I feel that there are some things that can't be avoided at all times.
"Since we're on the topic, I'll say a few more words."
"When you can't support yourself, all you should think about is studying hard and striving for improvement."
"As you become a better person, you will also meet a very good person."
"Your future is important, love is rare, but true love will always appear in your future."
"Love and future prospects complement each other for a lasting relationship."
Ye Zhao patted Li Muchen.
"Your parents married because of a free-love relationship, and they were very happy at the time. Your mother thought that by staying at home to take care of you, she was fulfilling your father's wishes and the family's wishes, but she gave up her own growth."
"Love that cannot grow together and achieve mutual success is like a fleeting moment."
"Unfortunately, I realized it too late and couldn't have dissuaded him sooner."
Li Muchen understood everything. He blamed no one, especially not his grandmother.
"Grandma, no one can predict the future. Everyone has to walk their own path to know its depth and bear the consequences."
"I won't date too early, and with my parents' experience as a cautionary tale, I will definitely be careful when it comes to relationships."
Ye Zhao was very pleased and held the boy's slightly cold hand.
"Grandma, love and romance are too troublesome. I will not demean myself like Lin Daiyu."
