The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 131, Watching Movies
In front of the delicious food, everyone was not polite, and after being surprised, they picked up their knives and forks and started to enjoy it.

"Why is such a big restaurant so deserted, with few tables of guests?" Yu Shui asked suspiciously while eating.

Yuan Manxia next to her smiled and explained to her: "It used to be lively and reservations were required, but now the relationship between us and Lao Maozi has deteriorated. The experts and officials of Lao Maozi have all withdrawn, so it seems Deserted.”

Zhao Guobing also nodded, and continued: "It's good that the old man has withdrawn. If they don't leave, we haven't been able to get meal tickets so easily. In the past, this place mainly supplied the old man's experts, officials, and knowledge returned from the Soviet Union. Molecules, meal coupons are always hard to come by, and ordinary cadres can’t get them easily, and the old Maozi enjoy all the good things.”

"Oh, that's it." Yushui suddenly realized.

Sha Zhu turned his head and glanced at her, and said with a smirk: "I guess your Lenin outfit will go out of fashion soon."

When Yushui heard this, his body froze, he looked down at his new clothes, and said with a mournful face, "Ah, why is this? I only wear it once. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have taken it."

No matter how good it is, if you ask, this Russian palace dish is no longer fragrant.

"I told you to be a fool, now it's okay, hahaha." Silly Zhu added with a smile.

Seeing his silly brother's snarky face, Yushui was so angry that his teeth itched.

"Hmph, if it's not popular, it won't be popular. I'll change it later and wear it again." After finishing speaking, he picked up the spoon angrily and went to compete with the thick soup.

Seeing her angry look, Li Weiguo smiled and comforted her and said, "It's okay, if you can't wear the Lenin suit, we can change it to something else. Later, you can bring all the cloth tickets from the stupid brother, and I will take you to buy a green military uniform." , guaranteed to be popular all year round.”

When Yu Shui heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really? Okay, I'll take all his cloth tickets when I get back, and I know where he's hiding." After saying that, he gave Shazhu a majestic look.

"Hey, hey, Weiguo, why did you cheat me so much, do you still have a conscience?"

"What conscience, what do you want that thing for?"

"Hahaha" everyone laughed.

After eating, everyone came out of Lao Mo and walked around the street for another half an hour before going back to their homes.

It was already 06:30 in the evening when Li Weiguo and Shazhu brother and sister returned to the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he met Xu Damao who was hurriedly trying to get out with a briefcase under his arm.

When Silly Zhu saw his opponent, he became excited: "Xu Damao, what are you going to do in such a panic? Isn't it because you pulled your crotch?"

Xu Damao rolled his eyes at Silly Zhu and refused to pay attention to him. He waved his hand and said: "Fuck you, you just pooped your crotch. If you want to go to the cinema, please open up and stay out of the way."

"Cinema? You're a projectionist. You haven't seen enough movies after showing them for a year?"

Xu Damao glanced at him, and said arrogantly: "What do you know, I am temporarily seconded to help, there is a subsidy, how about it, envy you."

As soon as Xu Damao said it, Shazhu understood what was going on.

It turns out that from the first day to the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the cinema attached to the steel rolling mill will show movies to the factory employees. During the Chinese New Year period, there is a shortage of manpower, so people are usually seconded from the publicity department of the factory. No, it happened to be Xu Damao's turn on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

"Cut~ I'm envious of what your three melons and two dates are doing, do you know what I did today?"

"Moscow western restaurant! Soviet court cuisine, hey, you haven't eaten western food, have you, hehehe."

Saying that, Sha Zhu wiped his hair angrily, and flaunted with Xu Damao.

Xu Damao glanced at him disdainfully and retorted: "What are you talking about? I think it was Chief Li who took you there. If you are a cook, do you have a meal ticket?"

"you"

Just as Silly Zhu was about to refute, Li Weiguo interrupted them both with a wave of his hand: "Okay, it's the first day of the new year, you two can rest, and Da Mao can go and do your work."

"Hey, okay, Chief Li, I'll leave first."

Xu Damao greeted Li Weiguo politely. Just as he was about to leave, he seemed to remember something. Then he took out two movie tickets from his pocket and handed them to Li Weiguo.

"Chief Li, here are today's movie tickets. The screening of "Wolf//Fang/Mountain/Five/Strong/Soldiers" is at [-]:[-] in the evening. The screening will start soon. Go and watch it when you have time. "

The two movie tickets were not worth much, so Li Weiguo was not polite to him and took them casually: "Okay, thank you."

"Hey, why are you being polite to me, I mean, come on, I'm leaving."

As he said that, Xu Damao waved his hand and walked out. When he passed by Shazhu, he turned around and provoked him: "Hey, I don't have your share, Shazhu, I'm so mad at you." Zhu made a grimace, and ran away.

"Hey, who cares about your broken movie ticket?"

Silly Zhu was short of breath, he wanted to spar with Xu Damao for a few more rounds, but unfortunately Xu Damao had already run away, so he could only be left depressed.

Yuyu was interested in the movie tickets. He took Li Weiguo's arm and said, "Brother Weiguo, why don't we go to the movies? There's nothing to do when we go back."

"That's okay, but there are only two tickets."

With that said, Li Weiguo shook the two tickets in his hand and looked at Shazhu and Yuyu.

Silly Zhu waved his hands indifferently: "You guys go, I don't like watching movies, it's hard to go out in the winter, I'll go back and have a drink or two."

"Okay, let's go then."

"Well, let's go."

The cinema attached to the steel rolling mill is not far from the factory area. It is just over Dongzhimen. Li Weiguo and the two of them arrived quickly on their bicycles.

The movie theater is a three-story single-family building with a large area, covering an area of ​​several thousand square meters. From a long distance, you can see the people waiting for the ticket check-in at the door, and there is a long queue.

"Wow, there are so many people, Brother Wei, let's go there quickly, it seems that the ticket check is about to start."

"Okay, let's go."

Li Weiguo and Yushui didn't delay, they found a place to park their car, and went to queue up.

These days, movies are one of the few entertainments, and they are very popular. When the movie theaters are showing, they are basically full. Sometimes people come late and can’t buy tickets, so they are very popular.

Compared with cities, film screenings in rural areas are more lively. Whenever the film screening team brings machines to the cultural compound of the commune (town), villagers from all over the world will come here upon hearing the news. , more lively than the Chinese New Year.

After queuing for almost four to five minutes, it was Li Weiguo and Yu Yu's turn to check their tickets.

Walking to the ticket gate, Li Weiguo handed two movie tickets to the ticket inspector. The ticket inspector took them, glanced at them, confirmed that they were for today's show, tore off half of them, handed the other half back, and motioned for the two of them to go in.

Li Weiguo and Yuyu took the bills and followed the flow of people inside.

Walking into the projection hall, looking around, it is very big.

There are rows and rows of old-fashioned benches, almost thirty or forty rows. Directly in front of it is a large screen. The screening hall is so large that it can accommodate 800 people watching movies at the same time.

At this time, four to five hundred people had already been seated in the projection hall, crowded and noisy, all crowded in the front seats.

Following the flow of people, the two found a seat near the front and sat down.

After about ten minutes, the lights in the projection hall were turned off, the scene was pitch black, and the movie started.

Accompanied by a burst of passionate music, black and white movie images began to appear on the screen.

"Wolf//Fang/Mountain/Five/Strong/Senior"

"The years have passed, and 2000 years have passed. Not a single plant or tree here has surrendered to the enemy. Every stone here has been stained with the blood of heroes."

“In the autumn of [-], the Japanese invaders launched an unprecedented and brutal sweep of more than [-] people in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Border Region, one of our democratic anti-Japanese base areas.”
