Chapter 309: Flower Returns Home
It was only a few days but it had fallen off the top of the ratings. On the other hand, Game Lake was enjoying more and more viewers. Together with the outstanding performance by the various actors, its ratings have increased and it was currently at the top. It was increasing steadily and it had the potential to be a breakthrough show.
More importantly, the show had brought about a wave of 3D gaming and had a positive trend among the public.
“Huanhuan, they want you to be the spokesperson of a game,” Yi Ling ran over happily. This was a good opportunity to see how everyone likes to play. By becoming a spokesperson of a game, it was easier to hold onto fans. Moreover, a games spokesperson was something new and Yan Huan would be ahead of the rest by grasping this rare opportunity.
Yan Huan didn’t have much objections to this; it was much easier than filming an advertisement. Moreover, as the spokesperson of a game with hundreds of millions of players, it could restore her fame and glory. Why would she be upset about it?
The Uncle and the Flower was almost at the end and they were close to wrapping up in a few days time. After wrapping up, she could go back to film it. Of course, Li Changqing had gotten quite a few other advertisement deals for her and were waiting for her to return to film them. With all of these, she might be busy until the end of the year. Hence, they would be able to spend the New Year at home this year.
This was the last part of The Uncle and the Flower. It was a wrap after this.
Outside a quiet village, a patch of bayberry grew. The land here was the most suitable to grow them and across the mountains and fields were bayberry trees. However, nobody thought of selling them as the mountain road was hard to cross and the road wasn’t linked. Many times, the bayberry here went to feed the pigs. The village was named after bayberry because of this. Bayberry Village was a poor village through and through. Anyone who could leave this village never returned.
As for Flower’s family.
Even though Flower’s mother was biased, Flower was a baby that had spent 10 months in her womb. She raised her through thick and thin and was a piece of meat off her body.
How could she not feel the pain if the meat went missing?
Danye had returned back so many times, which time did she not bring something home for the family? She had brought clothes for her mother to wear and even sent back a golden necklace a few days ago for her mother.
Flower’s mother felt a pinch in her heart at this thought. She was envious.
Flower’s mother had no expectations for her foolish and incompetent daughter to bring back a necklace. She was fine so long as Flower didn’t starve.
But why hasn’t she returned home?
This day, she forked out some time to wait at the village entrance again.
She had asked Danye a few times why Flower hadn’t returned. Danye said that Flower despised the poor village and wasn’t willing to return. But even if she didn’t want to return, she should have sent her a letter. Even though the family didn’t treat her well, they were still a family at the end of the day.
Flower’s mother only regretted it now. She shouldn’t have sold Flower to that widower for her son. But whatever she says now is useless. Her daughter was out making money and refused to return home. She didn’t want this family nor her mother anymore.
Danye was walking around the different households again, she wanted to find another lady who would go with her to work. All the girls in the village hadn’t been to school and didn’t have much culture. They could read a few words and were probably at the standard of a primary school kid. The only thing they could do in the village was to get married early and have a child. Now, Danye was back looking bright with gifts to give. She would bring around her stack of cash around to give her mother. Everyone said that Danye’s mother was fortunate to have a good daughter like Danye. She would be able to enjoy life with her daughter in the future. Their family had come from poverty too but were able to build a two-storey bungalow now. They had a television, washing machine and fridge etc. They were a big family in Bayberry village now.
Others who see how much she made wanted their daughter to follow Danye too. When they made enough money, they could build a house for the family and save some money for dowry too.
Danye was going around picking a few ladies. The youngest was only 14 years old. She didn’t want someone too young too as they wouldn’t even have an ID, how would they buy a train ticket? Danye had no choice but to think of a plan since the family had pleaded. She would see if she could get rid of her when they were on the train.
After all, the outside world was like paradise to those from the village, it was a different world.
As Danye was about to leave after choosing the people, Flower’s mother was still waiting outside the village. She wanted to know if her daughter had returned or not.
In a daze, she seemed to see a car driving towards her from afar.
Before long, the elegant black sedan stopped outside the village entrance. As the village was too small, the car wasn’t able to drive in. Everyone in the village came out; this was the first time that they have seen a car like this. Many of them wanted to give it a touch, to see if the car was hot or cold.
The door opened and a well-dressed man stepped out from the car. He took a look at the poor village before opening the door. A pretty young lady stepped out.
She was dressed cleanly, looking prim and proper. She was much better looking than Danye.
Flower’s mother was thinking to herself, why does this lady look like Flower?
“Mum…” Flower recognised her mother at once. This word left her mother in a huge shock. After taking a closer look, she realised it was indeed Flower.
“Flower, my daughter.”
The mother and daughter hugged and burst into tears. When everyone saw that it was Flower, they were shocked. Could it be that she struck gold and drove back in a car?
Flower returned to her house with her mother. Of course there was that man and it seems that he was Flower’s man. Was that her mother’s son-in-law?
Danye had no idea that Flower had returned. She had already kept her stuff and was preparing to leave with the ladies in the village. She was thinking to herself that she would be able to make tens of thousands of dollars by selling them away. Such a business was a quick deal and she didn’t think that she was doing anything wrong. She brought them out of this poor ditch to earn money, wasn’t she saving them?
However just as Danye brought the few ladies out with their stuff, she saw the car parked in front of the village. She was in shock. Where was this car from? She had seen stuff in this world and this car must be at least a few hundred thousand dollars. She had no idea whose family had such a rich relative and she wanted to take a look but dropped the idea. So long as it was someone from the village, she would know who it is at the end of the day. Besides, she was the most fashionable lady in this village, was she afraid of knowing someone rich?
