I thought the movie theater was deserted, but when I entered, it was completely deserted. The movie hadn't started yet, and the two overhead lights gave off a dim light.
Because the village below did not have electricity yet, Fourth Master deliberately raised his head and looked up. The seats for the two of them were not near the front, but in the middle.
They are all chairs made of wooden boards, without even a backrest. The height of the seat in the front row is the same as the height of the small bench. The seats are higher as you go to the back.
Lin Yutong also felt relieved. It was great not to have to sit on such a small stool.
Lin Yutong sat next to the aisle, where a pair of young men and women were already sitting. The man was wearing a military uniform and sat upright, while the woman was wearing a plaid coat and was half a foot away from the man. If it hadn't been for a small bag of melon seeds placed between them,
She thought they didn't know each other.
People in this era find it really funny to fall in love with someone. If you are in the underground party, you are afraid of being seen.
When the Fourth Master saw Lin Yutong looking at others, he thought she was greedy for melon seeds. He stood up and said, "Wait a moment."
Lin Yutong thought he had gone to the toilet, but who knew that he turned around and came back to get a bag of melon seeds. At this time, the melon seed bags were made of old newspapers folded into the shape of a triangle. How much did they cost?
Lin Yutong weighed what he had in his hand. There were about two taels, "How much is it?"
Fourth Master whispered: "Three points."
Lin Yutong was embarrassed. This magical conversation was really enough.
She pushed the melon seeds over and asked the Fourth Master to grab some. The Fourth Master shook his head, and they were all shriveled up like that. How to eat them?
Lin Yutong smiled, of course this cannot be compared with the melon seeds before. The people below picked them out one by one, and ate them in their mouths. They were all full. Not to mention the bad ones, they didn't dare to come forward because they didn't look good.
Taken.
When people are almost there, the lights are dark and there is no light at all. Occasionally, the curtain at the door will be lifted, and a little light will be revealed and disappear in an instant. This is because children from the neighborhood evade fares and come in to watch the movie.
Lin Yutong has watched the old movie "Tunnel War", and watched it more than once. When I was in elementary school, such Chinese-themed movies were organized by the school to watch. In junior high school, I watched it once or twice. I was deeply impressed.
But the feelings then were definitely incomparable to those now.
This environment, this identity, and the person around me give this movie a different meaning.
As he was watching, a face suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, which startled Lin Yutong. The Fourth Master held Lin Yutong in his arms and said, "It's okay, we're checking the tickets."
Let me go! Can we not be so scary? Master.
The cinema staff at this time were really old. There were few entertainment activities, and if there was a new movie, it would be hard to get a ticket.
Not to mention, there are quite a lot of fare evaders there. Especially children, they are not upset even if they are caught. They just smile, turn around and run into the darkness on the other side. There are those who are smart and can see six directions.
Listen to everyone, the ticket checkers can't catch you at all.
Fourth Master was really watching a movie, while Lin Yutong was experiencing the atmosphere.
While no one was paying attention, she secretly hooked the Fourth Master's finger. The Fourth Master grabbed her and stopped her from messing around. He even winked at her and told her to look around. There was really a clear barrier between men and women. How could they be so blind and blind?
It's orderly.
Lin Yutong suddenly remembered a saying, which is called "A gentleman does not bully the darkroom". It is a miracle that so many "gentlemen" have been created in one era.
After coming out of the cinema, Lin Yutong looked at the fourth master's expression. Of course, she knew she wouldn't see anything. In the past twenty years, the fourth master had learned not to ask about political affairs. Even if Honghui told him, he would
He just nodded lightly and didn't say any opinions.
"Go back directly? Or go back after eating?" Fourth Master turned around and asked.
Lin Yutong whispered: "I still have a meat ticket, which expires at the end of this month. At least I bought it, and we can eat meat openly." Even if we add extra meals, we only eat canned or braised meat. We don't dare to get angry at all.
Afraid of spreading the smell and letting others smell it.
Fourth Master smiled, "Let's go then. I guess there won't be anything good left."
Sure enough, there were only a few big stick bones left, and the meat on them was really clean.
Of course Lin Yutong couldn't bear to give them a pound of meat stamps. In the end, he took 2 taels of meat stamps, 3 taels of national food stamps and another 20 cents, and took back all the remaining bones of the big stick.
"Invite Ge Hongbing and the others to come over for a meal tonight." Fourth Master said in a low voice.
Lin Yutong responded, "That's right." On the night they first arrived, no matter what, they provided food, water, and ginger soup for the two of them.
Wu Chunlai's donkey cart was parked on the roadside. There were still a few people who hadn't arrived yet, so they had to wait.
"Master, what did you buy?" Wu Chunlai took the things from Fourth Master's hand and asked.
"Don't ask, we can come over for dinner tonight." Lin Yutong took over.
Wu Chunlai smiled. He had become acquainted recently and often ate at the master's side. Nothing else. At least there was a little oil in the dish, which made it very fragrant.
He took the bones back and gave one to Professor Cheng, telling them to boil it themselves.
The fourth master went to invite people, and Lin Yutong began to work. He asked Wu Chunlai to chop the bones into pieces with an axe, then rinse them and boil them in a pot.
Steamed a pot of steamed buns. When the bones were almost simmered, cut the radish into large pieces and put them in the pot to continue stewing.
Nowadays, apart from radishes and cabbage, there is really nothing to cook with.
All the male educated youths came, but among the female educated youths, Tang Tang did not come, but Chen Ping, Zhou Junhong, and Yang Liu all came.
Lin Yutong thought Yangliu would not come.
Unexpectedly, the one who didn’t come was Tangtang.
"Hey, some people can't afford to eat, but some people can afford meat." Yang Liu said sourly as soon as he entered the room.
The fourth master led the man into the inner room. Lin Yutong pretended not to hear what Yang Liu said, and just explained to Chen Ping and Zhou Junhong: "Don't mention it, there is no way to grab the meat. With these bones, if you hadn't gone early, you could have gone in and paid for it."
, I’m not sure whether I can buy it back. I keep saying thank you, but haven’t I been able to spare my hands? I don’t have anything to offer. Today I can also taste the smell of meat.”
"Why are you thanking me?" Chen Ping smiled and said, "But if it were anything else, I really wouldn't come. It's because I heard it smells like meat, so I came here to have a meal."
"Then don't be polite to any of us." Lin Yutong said, opening the lid of the pot.
The smell of meat immediately hit your nostrils. The large pieces of radish were stewed until they were soft and tender. Each of them brought their own lunch box, and each of them took a bowl and started eating.
Ge Hongbing inside whispered to Fourth Master: "...Brother, can you get in touch with the Corps?"
Fourth Master nodded, "It's not really a friendship, we just talked. What's wrong?"
Ge Hongbing nodded to Fourth Master, "You are humble." His voice was even lower, "They recruit special talents from the surrounding area every year, as you know."
Fourth Master really didn’t know about this. He only raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
Ge Hongbing took a look and said: "Look...look...I guess you know."
Fourth Master was noncommittal, "How did you know about this?"
Ge Hongbing's voice became even lower, "It's Tang Tang... Tang Tang's cousin is in the art troupe of the Corps. She just got the news today. Isn't this because she is angry with me? She wants to find a way out, but she doesn't know which temple to worship?"
"
"You did it for her, what about you?" Fourth Master looked at Ge Hongbing in confusion.
Ge Hongbing smiled bitterly and said, "Where can I go? Just stay here and repair the earth."
Isn't that just waiting for the chicken to beat the egg? Such a proud and arrogant woman cannot be kept by her side, and she will fly far away if she is released.
But it's a big taboo to talk about something shallow and deep. He won't say such things rashly.
"I have to ask first and tell you later," Fourth Master said casually. He actually heard it from his heart.
How can special talents be considered special? This is actually very flexible. There is also quite a lot of room for manipulation.
Ge Hongbing quickly touched the fourth master's bowl with his bowl as a token of thanks.
Wang Limin listened for a while. He had known Ge Hongbing for a long time and said directly: "Are you stupid? Find a way to get her whatever she wants. Fine grain, cloth stamps, oil stamps, meat stamps. Her family matters are all
You want to find a way to subsidize her good fortune. Now her ambition is like this. She wants to join the art troupe. What do you want to join the art troupe? By then, both people and money will be gone, and it will be too late for you to cry."
Liang Guodong finished the soup in the bowl and then sneered: "I just told him this. He is a fool, he really thought he was full of water."
Huang Zhiwei and Cui Dongyong, both from Harbin, looked at each other. Huang Zhiwei coughed and whispered, "Since her cousin is in the art troupe, let her help her. Does she want you to prepare for her?"
I don’t really ask you to give me gifts. Isn’t it possible that she knows that you are unfamiliar with the place here?”
Ge Hongbing's hand paused, "Probably not. She always says what she wants directly and won't be so polite to me."
"That's because I asked for too little before, but now I want too much. I can't open my mouth at the moment." Wang Limin chuckled, "I'll give you an idea, why don't you just organize the happy event. We can talk about the rest later. Is it possible that it is a cultural troupe?
Don’t be a married girl. You are old enough anyway. Find a branch secretary to issue a certificate, enter the bridal chamber first, and see where she can go."
Ge Hongbing kicked Wang Limin, but everyone laughed and took it off.
Outside, Chen Ping sent Yang Liu and Zhou Junhong back first, saying they were helping Lin Yutong wash up.
Lin Yutong knew that she had something to say, so when everyone left, he asked her, "What happened?"
Chen Ping was a little embarrassed and hesitated for a long time before asking: "Did you look at Zhou Junhong just now..." She patted her thigh and said, "I'm not here for you. I just want to ask you to borrow some food."
"For Zhou Junhong." Lin Yutong said with a smile. Just now I saw Zhou Junhong was so thin that he was so thin that he was out of shape.
