"Brother Tao, there will be a movie in the courtyard tonight."
Wang Xiaohu smelled the aroma of meat in the air and the oil residue he fished out, and swallowed his saliva.
Yang Xiaotao saw it, grabbed a handful of oil residue and put it in his hand, "Xu Damao put it in?"
Wang Xiaohu resisted putting it in his mouth and nodded immediately after hearing the words.
"Xu Damao came back early this afternoon and said he would invite people in the courtyard to watch a movie in the evening."
"Many people in the surrounding alleys know about it. They all came running over after eating."
Wang Xiaohu said that at this time, people were already sitting outside the central courtyard with benches.
Yang Xiaotao knew that this was Xu Damao's effort to restore his character.
Wang Xiaohu left after saying this, but Yang Xiaotao was not in the mood to watch it. Movies of this era were not as relaxing as reading a book.
In the middle courtyard, a curtain was erected in front of Shazhu's house. I don't know if Xu Damao did it intentionally or unintentionally.
In short, the door to Shazhu's house was blocked.
Silly Zhu sat in Yi Zhonghai's home with his rice bowl in hand, his face full of dissatisfaction.
"Master, do you think this grandson Sha Mao is deliberately looking for trouble?"
"Such a big yard, but it blocks the door of my house. This grandson is disgusting with me."
Silly Zhu looked at the drawn curtain and said viciously.
Yi Zhonghai, however, sighed in his heart when he looked at Xu Damao talking and laughing among the crowd.
This guy still has some cleverness, like showing movies in the yard now.
Even though everyone knew that Xu Damao was trying to be a good person, no one would refuse such a good thing.
This is the mentality of everyone. They cherish their own lives when doing big things, and they are greedy for petty advantages. If there is some benefit, they will pursue it, and they can even let go of the previous unhappiness.
"Leave him alone."
Yi Zhonghai picked up the cup, took a sip of rice wine, and savored it carefully.
"This grandson knows how to use things from the factory to please others."
"It's not a thing."
Silly Zhu muttered, then thought of something and put the bowl aside, "I'll disgust him."
"Pillar, pillar!"
Yi Zhonghai quickly shouted to stop, but Shazhu didn't listen at all and ran out.
In the middle courtyard, Xu Damao stood in the crowd, introducing the projector to the people in the courtyard, enjoying the admiring looks of the people around him from time to time, completely forgetting the embarrassment of being tied to the sign a month ago.
"Be careful, this thing is expensive, you can't afford to pay for it if it's broken."
Yan Jiefang on the side wanted to reach out and touch the projector, but Xu Damao on the side pushed his hand away and said preciously.
Yan Jiefang touched his head and was not angry. He also knew that this kind of thing should not be touched casually. It was just a bit novel and he couldn't control it.
"Brother Damao, what movie is playing tonight?"
Yan Jiefang asked, but he was thinking that he would brag about it to the classmates he invited later.
"Heroes are bold!"
"It was a new movie that just came out last year."
When Xu Damao said this, the people around him immediately remembered it in their hearts so that they could talk to others later.
"A shooter, a shooter."
Yan Jiefang ran away, and when he heard that there was a fight, many children became happy.
Xu Damao put the film away and then walked to the people. Everyone sat down with their stools and waited.
"Shazhu, what are you doing sitting here?"
Xu Damao looked at Si Zhu with his legs crossed on the stool in the front row, and immediately stepped forward and shouted.
"This is for the uncles and elderly people in our courtyard, you go to the back!"
"Go to the back."
Silly Zhu was not happy, "Si Mao, you don't have the final say in this yard. I have to listen to you where I sit?"
"Hey, Silly Zhu, I'm telling you, if I'm showing a movie here, you have to listen to me."
"Tsk, I'm just sitting here. What can you do?"
"Si Mao, I'll give you some face. You're really out of breath. Have you forgotten who is being tied up outside and being watched?"
"You look so shameless and skinless, you're really thick."
It was okay if Silly Zhu didn't say anything. When he mentioned this, it was like tearing open a scab wound. Xu Damao's face turned red, "Silly Zhu, I'm warning you, go away quickly, this is not a place you can sit on!"
"
Xu Damao stood up and shouted, "If you continue to mess around, don't watch this movie today!"
"I'll pack up and leave immediately."
When the people around watching the excitement heard this, the bull's eye they had blown out looked like it was about to burst. How could they still sit still?
One by one, they immediately gathered around and unleashed a burst of output on Silly Pillar.
One thing he said was unconscionable, another one was too stingy, all the words were spoken, and Silly Zhu couldn't hold back even if he opened his mouth no matter how eloquently he spoke.
"Okay, okay!"
"You are awesome, you are awesome. I can leave. Can't you do it if I leave?"
Silly Zhu stood up and got out of the crowd with the attitude of a hero who would not suffer any loss in front of him.
Xu Damao tilted his head and grinned.
He found another way to deal with Silly Zhu, but unfortunately, it was not very effective against Yang Xiaotao.
Silly Zhu just mentioned the previous incident, which made him feel uncomfortable.
"Just wait, I will kill you sooner or later."
Thinking in his mind, it suddenly became dark in the yard, and Xu Damao quickly looked around.
I saw Silly Zhu carrying a wire and throwing it out of the house.
"Whose thread is this? Come to my house, do I agree?"
As he spoke, he looked around, snorted coldly, and walked into the house.
"Silly Zhu, you heartless one!"
"That's right, that's too bad. Why don't we just pay the electricity bill!"
"I think Shazhu is deliberately trying to make things difficult for us."
For a while, the courtyard was noisy, but no one dared to knock on the door.
"Okay, don't say anything anymore."
Yi Zhonghai walked out of his home. After everyone calmed down, he pointed at Xu Damao and said, "Da Mao, connect the line to my house."
Xu Damao is still gloating about his misfortune. It would be best not to watch the movie today to see how Silly Zhu behaves in the courtyard in the future.
Unexpectedly, Yi Zhonghai stood up so quickly and suppressed the signs, making his plan all in vain.
However, today's matter has achieved its goal, so I don't think much about it.
"It's still a big deal. It's not like some people who are arrogant and fussy, not open-minded at all."
"Okay, hurry up, it will start in a moment."
Yi Zhonghai didn't let Xu Damao say anything and urged him quickly, and Xu Damao also quickly agreed.
After a while, the wires were connected and the preparations were completed. Xu Damao asked everyone to sit down quickly.
"Master, please sit down. The main position of Zhongzhengjian belongs to you."
Yi Zhonghai was delighted and sat in the middle with his aunt.
"Second uncle, you just came, sit down quickly."
Liu Haizhong is also smiling, and sitting in the front row is quite the limelight.
"Third uncle, I have to call you, so hurry up."
"Aunt Jia, you are coming too."
"And Sister Qin, this pregnant woman needs to be taken care of. Sit next to Xiao'e and we'll start in a moment."
Xu Damao's people in front of him and behind him were all exquisite, and no one was left behind.
Soon, the courtyard was filled with people, even the walls were filled with people. Many people from the courtyard next door came over when they heard there was a movie to watch. A group of people were chattering with excitement on their faces.
Xu Damao looked around and saw that Si Zhu hadn't come out yet.
As for Yang Xiaotao, he is also at home and feels very proud. It would be best if you don't come to see him.
snort!
Ahem, huh huh!
"Today, the movie shown is Die Brave."
"This story happened in Shiwandashan, Guangxi in 1950."
"There are hundreds of thousands of mountains. They are all connected by mountains. Bandits roam freely and come and go like the wind."
Xu Damao started playing the movie and explaining at the same time.
Of course, only those who are close can hear it clearly, which makes the people in the courtyard feel proud.
"The farmers at the foot of the mountain have suffered..."
"This guy's name is Li Hanguang, the bandit leader. This woman is not simple..."
"This girl's name is Alan. Although she looks pretty, she has a sweet heart..."
Xu Damao was playing the movie and explaining at the same time. People in the surrounding courtyard were attentive and fascinated by the plot of the movie.
Silly Zhu opened the door to his house, sat at the door and looked at the back of the screen. The picture inside was still clear.
"Pooh!"
“I feel more comfortable watching it at home!”
Yang Xiaotao looked at the images in the yard through the window sill. He didn't know much about this kind of theme movie in his previous life, but he still had an impression of this movie.
Of course, the main impression is the heroine in it, the actor who plays Alan.
She is a proper goddess. Not only is she beautiful and has a good figure, she is also great at acting.
"By the way, this one should be young."
Yang Xiaotao suddenly realized that he was in this era now.
I felt excited for no reason.
In my previous life, I looked at those goddesses and female celebrities who were all in all their glory, and they all married to either rich or noble people.
He, Yang Xiaotao, will never be able to catch up with her in his lifetime, but in this world, the pursuit of material things is not that intense yet. The chance of chasing the goddess this time should be greater than in the previous life.
Thinking in his mind, Yang Xiaotao looked at the yard in trance.
The corn stalks are shaking gently, and the future is like a dream.
Who can see through it?
As the movie ended, people in the theater were still unsatisfied.
Xu Damao struck while the iron was hot and promised to show movies in the yard if he had the opportunity in the future.
At this time, regardless of whether this "opportunity" was real or not, people around him recognized it, and many people even applauded and complimented Xu Damao.
Even the elder in the courtyard thought that this matter would be beneficial to the courtyard and praised Xu Damao a few words.
After this time, Xu Damao stood up again and walked out of the shadows.
In the days that followed, we even brought local specialties from the countryside, giving some to this family and some to that family, and the relationship between the neighbors improved rapidly.
In particular, the relationship with the second uncle in the backyard has risen sharply. We share the same fate and have become closer to each other.
As these beasts did not cause trouble, Yang Xiaotao naturally lived a peaceful life.
Although we live in poverty in the general environment, behind closed doors, each family has its own way of doing things.
Not to mention people like Yang Xiaotao who have cheats, even Silly Zhu has his own way.
No matter what the occasion, a cook can always be used, especially in this city, where there are more of them.
Every time Silly Zhu went out to make banquet noodles, he would bring back a bunch of things, which made the three uncles in the front yard stare.
Several times Yang Xiaotao encountered the three uncles hanging around Silly Pillar for the sake of working for the whole family.
Yan Fugui's family also has Yan Jiecheng who helps them. The third aunt can also go to the street to do some odd jobs. Plus Yan Jiefang watches Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiedi, the family is doing well.
In comparison, the Jia family's life is much more difficult.
Jia Dongxu has no other skills except going to work and getting paid and just dawdling around.
But the problem is that the salary earned is not enough for the family.
Mrs. Jia Zhang is not a diligent person either. She can embroider a pair of shoe mats for a month, and she also eats a lot.
Of course, Mrs. Jia Zhang was not without thoughts, but her thoughts were all on Xu Damao.
Ever since the last time Xu Damao was beaten, she had the idea of blackmailing Xu Damao.
It's just that Xu Damao is not stupid, especially because he was taught a lot by Yang Xiaotao. He suffered a lot and naturally gained more wisdom. He never gave Jia Zhang a chance.
Now, Bangge is growing up day by day, and children grow fast. They not only eat more but also eat well, and the clothes and shoes they wear have to keep up.
Fortunately, Jia's family had a sewing machine, and Qin Huairu was also diligent, so the stems of the mending sticks would not freeze while sewing.
But as her belly got bigger and bigger, it became inconvenient to move, and she wasn't full after eating. Qin Huairu's complexion turned a little yellow.
All in all, the Jia family's life has become increasingly difficult.
Even Jia Zhang didn't have the strength to scream in the courtyard, so she could only stare at people with her triangular eyes.
