Seventy-Year-Old Grandma Goes Viral in Showbiz

★ The main story is nearing its end.

Jiang Wei is a little-known actress who got her name out there with one role and landed a spot on a lifestyle variety show. The show aims to highlight the clash between old and new values, so she invited her grandmother, who had retired from acting many years ago, to join her.

Before the show aired, she thought her habits and lifestyle would resonate with today's netizens, help her gain followers, and make her famous.

But she never expected clips featuring her grandmother to spread all over the internet, with the two of them becoming a striking study in contrasts.

The granddaughter did one thing all morning: slept.

The grandmother did N things all morning: exercised, bought groceries, watered flowers, painted, and more.

The granddaughter stayed up late and woke up late, listless and frail...

The grandmother went to bed early and rose early, strong as an ox and fit as a fiddle...

Together, they vividly embodied the extreme contrast between lethargic young people and energetic seniors.

A staff member interviewed the grandmother: "Did you ever think about waking her up?"

Grandmother: "Why bother? She's an adult with a mind of her own. Sleeping isn't a crime. I'm seventy, and worrying less is better than anything."

Netizens: "Words to live by!!!"

Of course, the most entertaining part of the show was the clash between old and new attitudes toward romance and marriage.

Granddaughter: "In our line of work, it's easy to fall in love with your co-star."

Grandmother: "That's true. When I was young, I'd get a new boyfriend after every movie."

Netizens: "Grandma, what are you saying!!!"

Granddaughter: "I absolutely will never marry or have children in this life."

Grandmother: "Don't speak too soon."

Granddaughter: "No way, you're not going to nag me about getting married like everyone else, are you?"

Grandmother: "Hmph, you'd better not get married. Your mother and I aren't helping you raise kids. And we'd have to protect the family fortune three generations of our family worked so hard to build."

Netizens: "Grandma really is the clever one!!!"

With her startlingly modern outlook somehow hitting all the topics people care about today, netizens began digging into the grandmother's past.

They had no idea what they'd find.

You mean the woman who played all those famous beauties in literary classics is our grandma!!!

You mean the woman who won so many awards and honors is our grandma!!!

Thanks to the show, Jiang Shuhui returned to the public eye, and many people left messages on her account!

Grandma, can you stop fooling around? Seventy is the perfect age to go out and make your mark. Get back out there and build your career!

The Tree-Hole Blogger Becomes a Detective Expert

Fan Kuixin runs an anonymous advice blog. One day, she receives an unusual submission.

[Hello, I'm a sent-down youth living in Taohua Village.]

She had barely read the opening when she knew it was made up. What a ridiculous story about a sent-down youth.

But then she transmigrated to the 1970s, and her anonymous blog came along with her.

She opened the submission she hadn't finished reading.

[I married into a family with two brothers, one an idle farmer and the other a promising military officer. To give my child a good life, I made a snap decision and switched them.]

Fan Kuixin: "Switching a cat for a prince? Absolutely not!"

With her blog's help, she soon had access to the whole village's information network.

Fan Kuixin thought she'd just be reading gossip, but then she received a submission from a murderer.

[Hello, I'm an ordinary worker. I killed someone. I only meant to rob them, but who could've expected an accident? That kid wouldn't stop squawking. I heard children can fetch a lot of money.]

Fan Kuixin: "Not only did he kill someone, he also kidnapped and sold a child. Despicable!"

She decided to provide the clues and point the confused police in the right direction, but the officer in charge of the case said:

"What would a little girl like you know?"

He was soon made to eat his words.

After that, whenever the police ran into a difficult case, they asked her for help, and she became an unofficial member of the police force.

Her network of information grew from one village to the whole country.

Whether it was a petty matter or a long-unsolved major case, Fan Kuixin dared to say there wasn't a case she couldn't crack.

But something seemed off. Why did a murder happen everywhere she went?

Was she the legendary Conan type?
